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.

This cup allows for strategic use of newer, powerful types unlike the previous Retro Cup. Dragon types are weak to themselves and Fairy types, creating interesting matchups. Steel types are uniquely positioned, lacking inherent weaknesses to the other allowed types.

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 are particularly effective against Steel, while Poison types counter Fairy types.

Suggested Fantasy Cup Team Combos for Pokémon GO

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 winning combinations:

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

This team offers balanced typing, countering Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. Azumarill is a strong lead, while Alolan Dugtrio handles 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 strong choice. Heatran provides fire power, but be wary of Water types.

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

Melmetal's offensive power and limited weaknesses are advantageous. Wigglytuff counters Fighting and Dragon types, while Turtonator adds Dragon-type offense and counters Steel types.

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