Pokemon Go Battle League Premier Cup
The Premier Cup is new with Season 2 and will run alongside the Master League from June 15-July 6. There’s no limit on combat power for your Pokemon, however legendary and mythical Pokemon are prohibited. So put your Giratina and Mewtwo away and whip out your strongest standard Pokemon, because this format means you can’t rely on the overpowered pocket monsters.
The Premier Cup format will essentially play out in the same fashion as the league, “including the way ranks and ratings are determined” according to the official blog post. There’s no word on any unique Premier Cup rewards yet, but we’ll update this when we find out more.
How to enter the Pokemon Go Battle League
In order to enter the Pokemon Go Battle League, you first need to ensure you’ve reached level 10 in-game. Until this point, you likely won’t have Pokemon that can hold their own anyway, so this level gate is there to prevent you from being completely swept aside when you jump in.
Usually, when the world isn’t in an almost global lockdown amidst the current pandemic, there’s an entry requirement. To participate in the Battle League, you need to have walked at least 3km that day. Due to the current circumstances however, this has been removed, so you can play as much as you like from home.
Now to actually play in the Battle League, tap on the Poke Ball icon on the main screen then go to Battle in the top-right hand corner. From there, you can decide whether you want to compete in the Basic or Premium tier list – more on what that entails below. There’s also the Party screen, which allows you to customise your chosen squad to battle with.
Pokemon Go Battle League rewards
Climbing the ranks in the Battle League will net you some neat rewards including golden razz berries, evolution items, and TMs. You can also encounter some rare Pokemon, the following of which are confirmed:
- Stunfisk: Rank 4 onwards
- Rufflet: Rank 8 onwards
- Scraggy: Rank 9 onwards
Reaching rank 10 will net you a new avatar pose, avatar items inspired by Steven Stone (a Pokemon League Champion of the Hoenn region) and Pikachu Libre, while finishing at rank 7 or higher will grant you an Elite Fast TM and avatar items inspired by Pikachu Libre. If you only play once or twice, finishing at rank 1 will at least earn you a Metagross.
