Fantasy Cup Rules for Pokémon GO: Dual Destiny Season
The Fantasy Cup (Great League) runs from December 3rd to 17th. Pokémon must be 1500 CP or less and be Dragon, Steel, or Fairy type. This creates unique strategic challenges.
Best Fantasy Cup Teams for Pokémon GO
This cup allows for diverse team compositions, unlike the previous Retro Cup. Dragon types' weakness to themselves and Fairies presents a significant hurdle. Steel types are advantageous due to their lack of inherent weakness to the other permitted types.
How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team
Limited type options simplify opponent prediction. Many players will likely utilize Steel types. Dual-type Pokémon with Ground moves are effective against Steel, while dual Poison types counter Fairy.
Suggested Fantasy Cup Team Combos for Pokémon GO
Consider Pokémon with strong PvP attacks and defenses. Prioritize dual-type advantages. Here are some team combinations:
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
 Azumarill | Water/Fairy |
 Alolan Dugtrio | Ground/Steel |
 Galarian Weezing | Poison/Steel |
This team offers broad type coverage. Azumarill is a strong lead, while Alolan Dugtrio counters Steel types. Strategic switching is key.
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
 Excadrill | Ground/Steel |
 Alolan Sandslash | Ice/Steel |
 Heatran | Fire/Steel |
A Steel-focused team with type variety. Excadrill's popularity makes it a viable choice. Heatran provides Fire-type coverage, but be wary of Water types.
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
 Melmetal | Steel |
 Wigglytuff | Fairy/Normal |
 Turtonator | Fire/Dragon |
This team utilizes Melmetal's offensive power. Wigglytuff counters Fighting and Dragon types, while Turtonator adds Dragon and Fire-type coverage.
Experiment with these team compositions and refine your strategy to dominate the Pokémon GO Fantasy Cup. Pokémon GO is available on mobile devices.
