How can I find out exact iv of my grimer if it could possible be around ten different combinations?
It's a level one and iv range from 80- 95. How can I find out if it's 95

You can power it up a bit...wasting dust and candy. This is the way Niantic want you to do it (or maybe they just don't want you to know).

Alternatvely, you can use one of the many apps/programs that can 'extract' the exact IV of the mon...but these are against the ToS.

These are your choices.

So if I power up it will narrow down correct iv?

It will narrow it down, but there is no way to tell how many times you need to power it up to get an exact answer.
Be warned, sometimes it can be very expensive to narrow down the IV this way - only to find out it wasn't worth it.

Doing it with too many mons can have a very detrimental effect on your ability to play the game effectively, if you waste a lot of dust and/or candy.

If it's a level 1 pokemon, it likely won't be very expensive at all.

Depends how many power ups it takes...very few players have Grimer candy to throw away.
1 Grimer candy is valuable...so when it costs something valuable, I consider it expensive.

.Besides, the advice holds for all mons in the same situation, as well as this specific case.

Ps: For pokemons with low cp tho, there can be many diffirent combinations that fit. Then this one you might have to wait till you either evolved it, or its cp got higher (eg powering it up) to test it again :(

How to use:

All you have do is enter your pokemon name, CP, HP, amount of stardust, and whether it is powered up. After that use the appraisal feature where you bring the menu up in your pokemon page, then click on it.

After that choose the team you belong, and the comments the leader gave the pokemon, then you are all set.

It's not what you asked but why bother a lvl 1 mon? IMO the costs of powering it is much to high.
I happened to catch a 100% Psyduck at low level and 72 CP. I did evolve it and forgot it, just a useless trophy never to be used in a gym probably (due to bad moves).

If it is a "wonder" isn't it at least 82?
