Purifying a Pokémon in Pokémon GO means converting a Shadow Pokémon (usually caught from Team Rocket) back to its normal, non-Shadow state. It reduces its Candy cost and boosts its IVs, making it stronger and friendlier!
When you purify a Pokémon, you get some extra perks like boosted stats and lower powering costs. It's like giving your Pokémon a spa day!
Purely from experience, purifying can save a ton on Stardust and Candy. My Snorlax feels great after purification, and so do my resources!
