What Is the Catch Cup?

The Catch Cup is the latest competition in the Pokemon GO Battle League, but only Pokemon caught between certain dates are allowed to be used by players. Even then, not every Pokemon caught can be added to your roster, as there’s also a max CP that Pokemon can be to be eligible for the Catch Cup.

Tips to Get the Best Team for the Catch Cup

Your best bet is to keep logging into the game whenever you’ve got a bit of spare time and use Incense on your current location to have Pokemon come to you, rather than you having to chase them down around your local area. We’d also advise using Lures on any Poke Stops nearby to attract more Pokemon for a limited period of time. When you’ve caught a Pokemon, make sure that you’re then not leveling them up over 1,500 CP with your Candy and Stardust. Also, keep in mind that you can use Pokemon caught from Field Research Tasks, Raids or that have hatched from Eggs between March 29 and April 5, giving you the opportunity to add some really strong Pokemon to your roster. There you have everything you need to know on the Catch Cup. You can see more of our Pokemon GO guides below.
