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 unique strategic challenges.
Best Fantasy Cup Teams for Pokémon GO
The Fantasy Cup allows for the use of Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types, presenting a different meta than previous seasons. Steel-types are advantageous due to their lack of inherent weaknesses against the other allowed types.
How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team
With limited type options, strategic planning is key. 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.
