Pokemon Gos Galar Cup is here until October 8th!
TheGalar Cupis making its debut in the world ofPokemon Go!
Every once in a while, we get a new Special Cup in Go Battle League.
This time, however, were getting something new.
TheGalar Cup: Great League Edition.
First, all Pokemon must be at or below 1500 CP to be eligible.
Second, all Pokemon must be from Galar.
This means that as long as they were in the Pokedex in Pokemon Sword and Shield, theyre eligible.
This means that putting a synergistic team together can be a little more complicated.
Ultimately, there is an element of Rockruff-paper-Scizor to this.
TheMight and Mastery Seasonand itsseasonal questhas arrived.
you’re able to now catchDynamax PokemonthroughMax Battles.
First, however, you oughta visitPower Spots to collect Max Particlesand complete theTo the Max!
Remember you want to build a team with different pop in strengths and defences.
No points for guessing which one it is (spoiler warning, it has Galar in the name).
Embarrassing, we know, but we dont set the rules.
But do you know who enforces them?
Losses, meanwhile, will come from Toxapex, Ninetales, Diggersby, Ferrothorn and Gastrodon.
This spammy Pokemon is incredibly good at laying down both Fast move and shied pressure.
Fire Spin into Weather Ball is a great way at burning through shields and the opponents life.
see to it you know what youre doing when you pull that move out.
Good job everyone, its a wrap, we can all go home.
Fairies and their natural enemy (Poison) are a huge feature of this cup.
Oh, and you also have Play Rough just in case.
Theres not much to complain about here.
Fairy Wind is an incredible Fast move, Aerial Ace is cheap and Dazzling Gleam is a great nuke.
Beating Diggersby is pretty huge in this meta.
Losses will come from Ninetales, Toxapex, Charjabug, Shadow Alolan Ninetales and Shadow Drapion.
The upsides to running the slappiest of slugs are just too good to pass up.
To wit, Mud Slap hits surprisingly hard while also generating decent energy.
The fact that it drops the opponents defense 10% of the time is simply occasional upside.
You also lose to Mandibuzz and Diggersby (which is actually relevant).
All in all, this is a great choice.
Beware Gastrodon, Shadow Quagsire, Diggersby, Shadow Machamp and Mandibuzz.
Astonish hits harder than it has any right to, while generating decent amounts of energy.
How does this look in terms of match-ups?
Clefable, Toxapex, Charjabug, Gastrodon and Shadow Alolan Ninetales all cower in fear at your spookiness.
You will lose to the likes of Drapion (both types), Mandibuzz, Diggersby and Abomasnow.
Speaking of, you pretty much lose to anything sparkly and pink, along with Toxapex.
It is extremely bulky, spammy and dynamic, running Quick Attack to charge into Fire Punch.
Scorching Sands is there to debuff the opponents attack by 1 stage a third of the time.
All in all, its a very good Pokemon.
So what are Diggersbys drawbacks?
But first, Poison Jab is a very good move that deals reasonable damage.
The real drawback is that Brine and Sludge Wave are relatively expensive, so youll need the aforementioned bulk.
So, those match-ups.
Look forward to wins against both Ninetales, Clefable, Abomasnow and the similarly bulky Mandibuzz.
Losses will come from Shadow Golurk, Gastrodon, Diggersby, Shadow Quagsire and Shadow Drapion.
