Pokemon GO’s Ultra League is a fun PvP mode where players can test out their skills in the competitive scene of the game. Unlike the Great League, where you are confined to only a few creatures that you can use in your roster due to the tight Combat Power (CP) limit of 1500, you can diversify a bit more in the Ultra League. With a CP cap of 2500, you can easily accommodate a lot of legendary creatures in your Ultra League team that you cannot use in the Great League.

You will come across various cups in the Great and Ultra Leagues of Pokemon GO, and each comes with a unique set of rules. The same is true for the Fantasy Cup, which is a cup format that you can play in the Ultra League. Your Pokemon must fulfill the following conditions:

  • The creature must be at or under 2500 CP
  • It must be a Dragon, Steel, or Fairy-type

Apart from these requirements, Galarian Stunfisk and Cobalion, two of the most popular creatures in the Ultra League of Pokemon GO, are banned.
