In the new season of Pokémon GO Battle League, trainers can expect new moves, rebalances, and new Pokémon to enter PvP. This article aims to discuss the often overlooked aspect of Pokémon GO PvP: the Pokémon available as rewards for winning three battles in the GO Battle League.
To provide a comprehensive guide, this article will analyze the Pokémon's viability, best use cases, and the leagues in which they can be used. This information will be useful for trainers participating in the GO Battle League who want to make the most of the Pokémon they obtain.
Before delving into the analysis of each Pokémon, it's important to understand the key terms used in this article. These terms include the Pokémon's type, the required rank to encounter them, the viable leagues in which they can be used, the best IVs (individual values), and their usability as is.
The first Pokémon to be discussed is Bisharp. While it is currently not a good Pokémon for PvP, its evolution, Kingambit, introduced in Generation IX, may prove to be a strong contender in the Master League. Trainers can acquire Bisharp as a reward for winning three games in Rank 1.
Another Pokémon of interest is Marill, known for its future evolution into Azumarill. Azumarill is a mainstay in the Great League and has potential in the current season. Trainers should consider using the move Hydro Pump to capitalize on the prevalence of water-weak Pokémon in the meta.
Sneasel and its evolution Weavile are not recommended for open metas and do not show significant potential in the foreseeable future. Similarly, Sneasler, the FightingPoison evolution of Hisuian Sneasel, is not a top-tier option in the open meta or as a GBL reward.
On the other hand, Medicham, the evolution of Meditite, is a highly regarded Pokémon in the Great League. It boasts solid bulk, a powerful fighting type fast attack – Counter, and a versatile movepool. Medicham's ideal IVs include 5/15/15, making it potentially valuable for trainers acquiring it through the GO Battle League.
In conclusion, trainers should consider the Pokémon available as rewards in the GO Battle League and their viability in various leagues. By utilizing this information, trainers can make informed decisions and build strong teams to succeed in PvP battles.
