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

The Fantasy Cup allows for diverse team compositions, unlike the previous Retro Cup. Dragon types are weak to themselves and Fairies, presenting a significant challenge. Steel types, however, lack inherent weaknesses to the other allowed types, making them a strong foundation.

How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team

The limited type pool simplifies planning. Many players will likely utilize Steel types to mitigate weaknesses. Consider dual-typed Pokémon for broader coverage. Ground-type moves counter Steel, while Poison types are effective against Fairy.

Suggested Fantasy Cup Team Combos for Pokémon GO

Analyze your best Pokémon within the 1500 CP limit and chosen types. Prioritize strong PvP attackers and defensive capabilities to manage opponent shields. Here are some effective team combinations:

Pokémon	Type
Azumarill	Water/Fairy
Alolan Dugtrio	Ground/Steel
Galarian Weezing	Poison/Steel

This team offers balanced typing, countering Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. Azumarill is a strong lead, while Alolan Dugtrio handles Steel types. Strategic switching is key.

Pokémon	Type
Excadrill	Ground/Steel
Alolan Sandslash	Ice/Steel
Heatran	Fire/Steel

This Steel-focused team offers variety. Excadrill is a popular choice. Heatran provides Fire-type coverage, but be wary of Water types.

Pokémon	Type
Melmetal	Steel
Wigglytuff	Fairy/Normal
Turtonator	Fire/Dragon

Melmetal is a powerful attacker. Wigglytuff counters Fighting and Dragon types. Turtonator offers Dragon-type coverage and counters Steel types.

These are just a few examples. Experiment to find your winning strategy and claim those Battle League rewards.
