Is a nundo rarer than a hundo?

Yes, a Nundo (0% IV) is significantly rarer than a Hundo (100% IV) in Pokémon Go because many common ways to get Pokémon (raids, research, eggs, weather boost) have minimum IV floors (like 10/10/10), preventing Nundos, while Hundos can come from these sources plus trades, making them much more accessible.

Are Shadow Pokémon better than Hundo?

Yes, a Shadow Pokémon is almost always better than a regular "hundo" (100% IV) Pokémon for damage output in raids (PvE) because the Shadow Bonus gives a massive +20% attack boost, making even a 0/0/0 Shadow stronger than a perfect non-shadow counterpart. However, Shadows also take 20% more damage, so hundos shine in PvP where bulk matters more, or if you prefer the aesthetic/don't want to invest in a Shadow.
