Fantasy Cup Rules for Pokémon GO: Dual Destiny Season

The Fantasy Cup (Great League Edition) runs from December 3rd to 17th. Pokémon must have a CP of 1500 or less and be one of three types: Dragon, Steel, or Fairy. This creates a strategic battlefield with both challenges and opportunities.

This cup allows for creative team compositions using less common types. Dragon types, weak to both themselves and Fairy types, present a significant challenge. Steel is the only type without inherent weaknesses to the other two allowed types, making team building crucial.

How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team

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

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 to manage opponent shields effectively. Here are some winning combinations:

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

This team offers balanced typing, providing advantages against Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. 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

This Steel-focused team offers variety. Excadrill's popularity makes it a viable option. Heatran provides Fire-type coverage, but be wary of Water types.

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

Melmetal's power and limited weaknesses are balanced by Wigglytuff's Fighting and Dragon type coverage, and Turtonator's offensive capabilities.

These are just a few examples. Experiment to find the best strategy for you and claim victory in the Pokémon GO Fantasy Cup.
