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 one of three types: Dragon, Steel, or Fairy. This creates unique strategic challenges.

Best Fantasy Cup Teams

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 weaknesses to the others.

How To Build a Strong Team

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

Suggested Team Combos

Before building your team, assess your best Pokémon (1500 CP or less) within the allowed types. Prioritize strong PvP attackers and balanced defenses. Here are some effective combinations:

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

This team offers balanced type coverage, countering Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. Strategic switching is key.

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

This Steel-focused team provides variety for handling other Steel-type opponents. However, be wary of Water-type Pokémon like Azumarill.

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

This team features the powerful Melmetal, with Wigglytuff and Turtonator providing additional coverage.

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