Just like other GO Battle League tournaments, it is crucial to ensure that players form teams which are well-rounded. This means that the team should not only be powerful individually but as a whole as well. For instance, a Pokemon likeCarbinkwhich is a Rock and Fairy-type having weaknesses to Steel, Grass, Ground, and Water-type is well complemented by Pokemon likeCresselia, Mantine, and Mandibuzz as they counter its weaknesses and provide a good type coverage in general. So simply choosing the top Pokemon isn’t enough, and they should complement each other as well.
As far as the strategy for this goes, it is very important to rely on bulky Pokemon, which offer dynamic play. The likes of Carbink, Mantine, and Mandibuzz are extremely bulky which is one of the reasons why they are such great choices. Additionally, their type matchups offer great type coverage. Carbink’s Ground and Fairy-type matchup will give players an offensive advantage against a lot of other types, so it is a must-have in teams.
Mantine is a great Pokemon for several teams, considering that it is only weak to Electric andRock-type attacksand can counter several other team weaknesses with its Water and Flying-type moves. For instance, it can counter the Ground and Grass-type weakness of Carbink. A very crucial move combination players would find is Wing Attack and Aerial Ace, which allow players to quickly spam charge attacks, considering that the latter only requires 33 energy which the fast move can quickly gather in less than 5 seconds. This also works pretty well with other moves such as Feather Dance, Poison Fang, and Weather Ball, which have low energy requirements.
Last but not least, players should also ensure that they have some bulkySteel-typesin their team, as they can prove to be quite helpful in withstanding pressure from the opponents. Not to forget,Flying typesare a must as well, considering that they can easily counter Ground-type Pokemon which are quite frequently used.
