The Pokémon GO Holiday Cup: Little Edition is here! This limited-time event, running from December 17th to 24th, 2024, presents a unique challenge with a 500 CP cap and restricted typing. Only Electric, Flying, Ghost, Grass, Ice, and Normal types are allowed, forcing players to rethink their battle strategies.
Crafting a Winning Team:
The lower CP limit necessitates a careful selection of Pokémon. Consider type matchups and the prevalence of Smeargle, a powerful Normal-type Pokémon capable of copying moves. Many consider Smeargle a top contender this year.
Team Suggestions:
Here are three sample team compositions to get you started:
Team 1: Diverse Typing
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
| Pikachu Libre | Electric/Fighting |
| Ducklett | Water/Flying |
| Alolan Marowak | Fire/Ghost |
This team offers diverse typing to counter various threats. Pikachu Libre's Fighting typing is effective against Normal-type Smeargle. Skeledirge can substitute for Alolan Marowak if needed.
Team 2: Adapting to Smeargle
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
| Smeargle | Normal |
| Amaura | Rock/Ice |
| Ducklett | Water/Flying |
A "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" strategy. Ducklett counters Fighting types targeting your Smeargle, while Amaura provides Rock-type coverage.
Team 3: Underdog Strategy
| Pokémon | Type |
|---|---|
| Gligar | Ground/Flying |
| Cottonee | Grass/Fairy |
| Litwick | Ghost/Fire |
This team utilizes less common Pokémon. Litwick excels against Ghost, Grass, and Ice types, while Cottonee offers strong Grass-type attacks. Gligar provides advantages against Electric types.
Remember, these are suggestions; your optimal team will depend on your available Pokémon and play style. Good luck in the Holiday Cup: Little Edition! Pokémon GO is available now.
