Season 6 of Pokémon GO's GO Battle League is coming to an end, and one of the last cheers is the return of the Master League and its corresponding Premier Cup, which limits the Pokémon available. If you return to the nearly limitless world of the Master League, you better have some of the best Pokemon in the game on your team. A lot has changed since we last entered the Master League and its Premier Cup, so let's break it all down in this Pokémon GO Master League and Premier Cup guide, which shows you the best Pokémon for your team in February 2022.
The best Pokemon for the Master League in February 2022
Below is our pick of the best Pokemon for the Master League in February 2022. A few have gone up or down since this list was last created, so try to build your team as best you can. Of course, Pokémon XL are now allowed in the regular Master League, so if you're not using them, you can head to Master League Classic instead. Alternatively, try picking some of the Pokemon at the top of this tier list and building a team around them, filling in weaknesses and adding extra strengths.
Note: The Strong Against field tells you what it will resist damage from. Use the attack type to determine if it will deal extra damage using our type chart.
