Season 5 of the battle league in Pokemon GO is continuing with the Catch Cup. It will run from Monday, November 23, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. PST to Monday, November 30, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. PST.
The Catch Cup has special limitations, much like other special cups that have appeared in Pokemon GO‘s battle league. Players can only use Pokemon that were caught on or after November 9, 2020, with the maximum CP limit being 1,500. Additionally, players cannot use mythical Pokemon such as Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, and Victini.
Despite not technically being caught, Pokemon that were hatched from eggs on or after November 9, 2020 are also able to be entered. However, the CP limit changes up which Pokemon would be best to use.
So far, players have found many teams to challenge other trainers despite the limitations. Some potential combos include:
- Skarmory, Alolan Marowak, and Scrafty
- Wigglytuff, Skarmory, and Whiscash
- Sirfetch’d, Altaria, and Wigglytuff
Skarmory is a dual Steel and Flying-type Pokemon. It does not evolve or have any pre-evolutions, meaning that all Skarmory candy can go to powering up. Its best moveset has it knowing Steel Wing as its fast move and Sky Attack as its charge move. Skarmory is only weak to Electric and Fire-type moves.
Alolan Marowak is a dual Fire and Ghost-type Pokemon. Its best moveset for the greatest damage per second (DPS) is Fire Spin for its fast attack and Shadow Ball for its charge attack. This Pokemon is weak to Dark, Ghost, Ground, Rock, and Water-type moves.
Scrafty is a dual Dark and Fighting-type Pokemon, evolving from Scraggy. The best moves for Scrafty to know are Snarl for its fast attack and Foul Play for its charge attack. Scrafty is weak to Fairy, Fighting, and Flying-type moves.
Wigglytuff is a dual Normal and Fairy-type Pokemon that evolves from Jigglypuff. Its best moveset is Pound for its fast move and Play Rough for its charge move. This Pokemon is only weak to Poison and Steel-type moves.
Whiscash is dual Water and Ground-type Pokemon that can evolve from Barboach. The best possible moveset would have Whiscash knowing Water Gun for its fast move and Mud Bomb for its charge move. It is only weak to Grass-type moves.
Sirfetch’d is a pure Fighting-type Pokemon that evolves from Galarian Farfetch’d. Its best moveset has Fury Cutter for its fast move and Brave Bird for its charge move for maximum DPS. This Pokemon is weak to Fairy, Flying, and Psychic-type moves.
Altaria is a dual Dragon and Flying type Pokemon that can evolve from Swablu. For battle, it is best that Altaria knows Peck for its fast attack and Sky Attack for its charge attack, although Peck can be replaced with Dragon Breath if players want to have a dragon-type move for coverage. Altaria is weak to Dragon, Fairy, Ice, and Rock-type moves.
Pokemon GO is available now in select regions on Android and iOS devices.
