Fantasy Cup Rules

The Fantasy Cup (Great League) runs for two weeks, demanding strategic team composition. Pokémon must be 1500 CP or below and belong to one of three types: Dragon, Steel, or Fairy. This creates both challenges and opportunities.

Best Fantasy Cup Teams

This cup allows for strategic use of Dragon, Steel, and Fairy types. Note that Dragon types are weak to themselves and Fairy types, while Steel types have no inherent weakness to the other allowed types. This makes team building crucial.

How To Build a Strong Team

The limited type pool simplifies prediction, but careful consideration is key. Many players will likely utilize Steel types to minimize weaknesses. Consider dual-typed Pokémon for broader coverage. Ground-type moves are particularly effective against Steel, while Poison types counter Fairy Pokémon.

Suggested Fantasy Cup Team Combos

Before building your team, analyze your best Pokémon within the 1500 CP limit and allowed types. Prioritize strong PvP attackers with decent defenses to manage opponent shields. Here are some winning team 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 vital.

Pokémon	Type
Excadrill	Ground/Steel
Alolan Sandslash	Ice/Steel
Heatran	Fire/Steel

A Steel-focused team with 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

This team utilizes Melmetal's offensive power, Wigglytuff's versatility against Fighting and Dragon types, and Turtonator's Dragon-type offense and Steel-type coverage.

These are just a few examples. Experiment to find your winning strategy and claim those Battle League rewards.
