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 of 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-type Pokémon are weak to themselves and Fairy types, posing a significant challenge. Steel-type Pokémon are uniquely advantageous, lacking inherent weaknesses to the other allowed types.

How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team

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

Suggested Fantasy Cup Team Combos for Pokémon GO

Before building your team, assess your best Pokémon within the 1500 CP limit and allowed types. Prioritize strong PvP attackers and balanced defenses. Here are some winning combinations:
