Best teams for Great League in Pokemon Go (September 2022)
Pokemon Go players can throw themselves into the competitive element of this beloved mobile game through the League system's hardcore battles. There are three Leagues available that limit the Combat Power of the teams allowed to enter. The lowest limit comes in the Great League, which tops out at 1,500 CP.
The limit on CP vastly changes the meta of a Pokemon battle. Being unable to pick the ultimate top-tier choices allows for a greater variety of creatures to get the spotlight. However, even in the lowest rank, clear favorites will emerge and begin to dominate the tournament scene.
As the new season begins on September 1, the meta will be receiving one of its ever-present shakeups. Pokemon Go players will find the same handful of creatures working their way through many matches in the Great League.
The current most successful trio in Great League is Azumarill, Medicham, and Galarian Stunkfisk. Most of the highest-ranked teams have reshuffles of that triumvirate, but Azumarill in the lead is the current favorite.
Azumarill has long been a terror in the world of competitive Pokemon, thanks to its diverse moveset and substantial survivability. The overwhelming majority of top-tier Great League teams put Azumarill on the list.
Galarian Stunkfisk features the rare and coveted Ground/Steel double-type, giving it solid resistance to most other Great League favorites. Rock Slide and Earthquake are powerful attacks, and they double as Fairy-type killers.
Medicham is not particularly impressive anywhere outside of Great League, but it's a solid attacker here. Its combo of Counter and Dynamic Punch are great Fighting moves that will crush a ton of strong enemies.
Common alternatives to the most common trio include Bastiodon and Skarmory.
