Here’s what you gotta know about Pokemon Go’s newest Research Day event!
Because of the variety, the Ultra Leagues Pokemon ranking is a lot more fluid and free.
Theres a noticeable margin between the top ten and the rest, but its all fair game after that.
Corviknight, Jellicent, And Skeledirge
A full coverage team with no easy counters.
Giratina (Altered) is the enemy of both Jellicent and Skeledirge but is easy prey for Corviknight.
You only need to know when to pivot and toss out another Pokemon to win with this team.
Corviknight XL
Skarmory has been dethroned as the Steel/Flying champion; now Corviknight sits atop the ranking.
The result is a bulky, brick wall of a Pokemon.
Jellicent XL
With a long list of resistances and few weaknesses, Jellicent is bulky and defensive.
Use it tocounter Skeledirge and Talonflametrying to take down your Corviknight, and bait out shields with Surf.
Kit it withIncinerate, Torch Song, and Shadow Ballfor a mix of shield pressure and high-damage attacks.
Theyre perfect for mixing and matching to counter as you see fit.
Along withPsywaveandShadowball, Grumpig is well-rounded andcounters everything from Virizion and Lapras to Annihilape.
WithPsywave, its aGhost-throw in counter,andIce Beammakes it aDragon-throw in and Water-throw in counter.
Round it out withSparkling Aria,and you have a versatile defender.
Talonflame XL
Talonflame is incredible at one special thing:KO-ing Corviknight.
In a plain one-on-one, Talonflame can take out a Corviknight with barely a scratch.
This volatile phoenix alsocounters Grumpig and Skeledirge, making it the perfect meta-breaker.
Feraligatrs only real enemies are Lapras and the fact that Feraligatr isnt as bulky as the other contenders.
Its real enemies are Clefable, Primeape, and Steelix.
Use it withSucker Punch, Brave Bird, and Ancient Power.
Just watch out for Corviknight, Primeape, and Feraligatr.
Niantic Spatial must be strapped for cash…
