How to purify the Shadow Pokémon?

If you have successfully caught the Shadow Pokémon, then your immediate step would be to purify it. This requires you to simply hit the ****on on the information screen of the Pokémon. The process of purifying the Pokémon is simple, but it costs dust and candy. Niantic has an active list that shows which Pokémon can be caught as Shadow Pokémon as of July 22, 2019. The difference between a purified one, and Pokemon caught by you lies in their evolution.

The purified Pokémon costs less candy to evolve and also takes less dust to power up. They also understand Return, which is a normal type attack. They also get IV boost when powered up and Polygon notes that each stat goes up by two when purified.
