Pokémon Go: How the Fossil Cup works

From June 15 to 22, the Fossil Cup will be available in Pokémon Go. You'll be able to use a limited number of Pokémon against other players here. There will be a set of regulations that you must follow in order to compete in the Fossil Cup, which differs from the usual Great, Ultra, or Master League tournaments. Here's everything you need to know about Pokémon Go's Fossil Cup.

All Fossil Cup rules

You can only utilize Water, Rock, and Steel-type Pokémon in the Fossil Cup. A Pokémon can compete in the Fossil Cup as long as it possesses type. For example, Escavalier, a Bug and Steel-type Pokémon, or Ferrothorn, a Grass and Steel-type Pokémon are both legitimate entries. You can double-check which Pokémon are valid entries while the tournament is open. All of your Pokémon must have a CP of 1,500 or less. They can't go above it, thus you'll need to use a Pokémon from the Great League, not the Ultra or Master Leagues.

We've broken down some of the greatest Pokémon teams for the Fossil Cup, as well as a tier list of additional important alternatives if you want to construct your own. Swampert, Registeel, Lucario, Ferrothorn, Escavalier, Araquanid, Pelipper, Quagsire, Poliwrath, Ludicolo, Jellicent, Gyarados, Tapu Fini, and Magnezone are just a few of the recommended alternatives.

On June 22, the Fossil Cup will come to a close. The Master Cup will be running concurrently with this competition, allowing you to choose between the two.
