The Pokemon GO Summer Cup: Great League Edition limits what types of Pokemon you can use and has a 1500 CP limit, making it hard to choose your battle team. Luckily, we’ve got the best lineup for you!
The best team for the Summer Cup: Great League Edition is Pidgeot, Vigoroth, and Diggersby.
The most powerful Normal-types dominate the Summer Cup, as very few eligible Pokemon can counter them. Moreover, Pidgeot, Vigoroth, and Diggersby have several powerful attacks of different types, making them a great team that can take you to plenty of wins.
Don’t worry if you don’t have any of these Pokemon though, there are plenty of other great choices.
The table below shows our top 10 Pokemon for the Summer Cup: Great League Edition, alongside their most powerful attacks.
