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
This cup allows for strategic use of Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. Steel is advantageous due to its lack of inherent weaknesses to the other two types.
How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team
Limited type options simplify 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 Fantasy Cup Team Combos for Pokémon GO
Choose Pokémon with high PvP attack and defense within the 1500 CP limit. Strategic shield management is key. 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 crucial.
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
 Excadrill | Ground/Steel |
 Alolan Sandslash | Ice/Steel |
 Heatran | Fire/Steel |
A Steel-focused team with 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 |
This team features Melmetal, a powerful Steel-type attacker. Wigglytuff counters Fighting and Dragon types, while Turtonator adds Dragon and Fire-type offense.
