Fantasy Cup Rules for Pokémon GO: Dual Destiny Season

The Fantasy Cup (Great League Edition) runs from December 3rd to 17th. Pokémon must be 1500 CP or less and be of 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. Note that Dragon is weak to itself and Fairy, making Steel a potentially strong defensive choice as it resists Fairy attacks.

How To Build a Strong Fantasy Cup Team

The limited type pool simplifies team 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.

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. Here are some winning combinations:

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

This team offers balanced type coverage against Dragon, Steel, and Fairy opponents. 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

A Steel-focused team with varied subtypes. Excadrill's popularity makes it a viable choice. Heatran provides Fire-type coverage, but be wary of Water types.
