Hi, folks
I know you are very excited to show all of your potential as a trainer on POKÉMON GO, and become even more powerful than Ash Ketchum… MWAHAHAHA(Evil laughter)…
So, in hopes of helping you to reach this goal, I’m bringing you…
…THE TOP 15 POKÉMONS FOR THE GREAT LEAGUE!
Let’s GO(Pun intended)!
15. QUAGSIRE
The evolved form of Wooper, Quagsire is an amphibious(Water and Ground Pokémon), which means it can fight Ground Pokémons without being easily affected(unlike other Water-types Pokémons), due to its high level of Defense.
What QUAGSIRE Excels In
More resistant to a certain variety of Pokemons than others use to be, it will also get its own HP restored if hit by any water-type move.
QUAGSIRE’s Best Attacks For Your Player vs. Player
- Quick Moves: Water Gun
- Main Move: Earth Quake
QUAGSIRE Weaknesses
- Its available quick moves aren’t so strong, what's not good for fighting player vs. player
Catch QUAGSIRE!
- You can catch him in the wild and after defeating Team Go Rocket. It will evolve from Wooper into Quagsire at level 20).
14. PERRSERKER
Come on! Who could resist this smile?! Perrserker is a Galarian Meowth's evolved form. It’s a steel-type, a fact that turns it strong against most of the other Pokemons equipped by other players in the Great League.
What PERRSERKER Excels In
It has a strong advantage against the Fairy-types, the ones who are not easily affected by other types of Pokemons during the player vs. player, plus PERRSERKER has a desirable CP(Combat Power).
PERRSERKER’s Best Attacks For Your Player vs. Player
- Quick Move: Iron Heax
- Main Move: Metal Claw
PERRSERKER Weaknesses
- This Pokemon doesn’t have many advantages against Fighting and Ground types
Catch PERRSERKER!
- You can get Perrserker as a reward for completing a Timed Research,
- In 4km Distance Eggs(sporadically),
- In 3-Stars Raids or even in the Wild catch(this last one doesn’t use to happen very often)
13. SEISMITOAD
Seismitoad is the evolved form of Palpitoad(Evolved froC Tympole). As Quagsire, It is also an amphibious(Water and Ground-type) Pokémon, what’s an edge in the Great League.
What SEISMITOAD Excels In
Seismitoad is a third-evolved form of Pokémon, thanks to this it surpasses Quagsire(who got the 15th position on this list) in Quick Moves, due its many options of this kind of attack, causing more damage to Seismitoad’s opponents. It is almost unaffected by Water-type Pokemons,
SEISMITOAD’s Best Attacks For Your Player vs. Player
- Quick Moves: Bubble
- Main Moves: Earth Power
SEISMITOAD Weaknesses
- If you thought of salt, you were deeply wrong. This amphibious is actually weak against the Grass-types, during the player vs. player… And maybe salt. I mean everyone may have issues with their blood pressure. So, trainers, catch them all and avoid sodium!
Catch SEISMITOAD!
- Wild capture in the forms of Tympole, Palpitoad or Seismitoad;
- As a reward after a Go Battle League;
- In the Tympole’s form, in 2km Distance Eggs(sporadically).
12. STUNFISK
Stunfisk is a Electric and Ground-type Pokémon who doesn’t evolve(just like some people…)
What STUNFISK Excels In
This Pokémon doesn't have a great attack when using Quick Move, but it can QUICKly strike the opponent and hold out for a long time, what's enough to get more energy for its Main Move that can force the opponent to spend their shields faster.
STUNFISK’s Best Attacks For Your Player vs. Player
- Quick Move: Metal Claw
- Main Move: Rock Slide
STUNFISK’s Weaknesses
- Alright, there are both good and bad news here: Only the Grass-type causes double-damage to Stunfisk. The bad part is that Grass-type is the most used Pokémon in the Great League.
Catch STUNFISK!
- You can catch a wild Stunfisk or get it by defeating the Team Go Rocket.
11. SNEASEL
Dark and Ice-types Pokémon, who evolves into Weavile. It's not so resistant and has some Counters very used in the League, but the enemy will suffer a great deal of damage, what's enough to make Sneasel win.
What SNEASEL Excels In
Sneasel attacks fast and its best Quick Move causes a fair amount of damage to the opponent; there are not many Pokémons immune to it. Definitely the best option to hit resistant Pokémons who have weak Quick Moves, such as Quagsire and Stunfisk...
SNEASEL’s Best Attacks For Your Player vs. Player
- Quick Move: Feint Attack
- Main Move: Avalanche
SNEASEL’s Weaknesses

- Capturing Sneasel in the Wild or beating Sierra, the Team Go Rocket leader
10. BASTIODON
Steel and Rock-types Pokémon, evolved form of Shieldon, this Pokémon combines the strongest two types in one. Bastiodon also has one of the best Defenses that you could ever find for the Great League!

Dark Ghost-type of Pokemon, Sableye doesn’t evolve. By the way, am I the only one scared here? I’m serious, this guy looks like my cat running to steal my cookies!
What SABLEYE Excels In

What TOXICROAK Excels In
Although Toxicroak isn't so resistant, defeating other strong Pokémons isn't really difficult for it to do. This happens thanks to its strong Main Moves that load so fast that the other player will lose before knocking Toxicroak down.
