The available cups in the GO Battle League in have been updated once again, this week featuring The Master League and Love Cup: Great Editions.

Palkia has recently been available in raids and is another dual Dragon-type, meaning it is super-effective against all other Dragon-type. It excels in every area, especially with its strong attack stats, and is a
