Fantasy Cup Rules: Dual Destiny Season

The Fantasy Cup (Great League) runs from December 3rd to 17th. Pokémon must be 1500 CP or less and be of Dragon, Steel, or Fairy type. This creates unique strategic challenges.

Best Fantasy Cup Teams for Pokémon GO

This cup allows for strategic use of Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. Note that Dragon is weak to itself and Fairy, while Steel is the only type without inherent weakness to the others.

How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team

Limited type options simplify 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

Choose Pokémon with strong PvP attacks and decent defense. Prioritize type matchups and shield management. Here are some team combinations:

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

This team offers good 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 variety. Excadrill is a popular choice. Heatran adds fire power, but be wary of Water types.

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

Melmetal offers strong Steel-type offense. Wigglytuff handles Fighting and Dragon types. Turtonator provides Dragon-type coverage and counters Steel.

Experiment with these teams and refine your strategy to dominate the Pokémon GO Fantasy Cup. Pokémon GO is available on mobile devices.
