Mythical Pokemon are some of the strongest powerhouses that trainers use in different formats of the Pokemon GO Battle League. Those who know how these monsters perform in the meta have a battle advantage over those who don’t. Mythical Pocket Monsters are as popular as Legendary Pokemon in GO, and some are as robust as the latter. So, when trainers have an idea about which one should be used in which format, then, they can play better in Pokemon GO PvP.
From a sizeable number of Mythical Pokemon available in the mobile game, these are fit for each of the Pokemon GO Battle League.
