The Master Premier is where the most powerful non-Legendary Pokemon battle it out in Pokemon GO. This is because Legendary, Mythical, and Ultra Beast Pokemon are not allowed in the competition!
The best team to use in the Pokemon GO Master Premier is:
- Dragonite
- Florges
- Metagross
Dragonite is an extremely powerful option as it is arguably the best non-Legendary Pokemon in the game – that’s why you should use it as your lead Pokemon. Meanwhile, Florges and Metagross provide some excellent damage output and defensive stability!
In addition to this powerful trio, there are other Pokemon that can get you wins in the Master Premier. We’ve included the top 10 choices as well as their strongest attacks in the table below.
