GO Battle League Season Six In Pokémon GO: Top Master Premier Meta
GO Battle League Season Six is live in Pokémon GO with a brand new format. Now, PVP seasons will match the new seasons introduced in the overall gameplay and will last for three months. Season Six, coinciding with the Season of Celebration in Pokémon GO, continues with the Master League which will run until Monday, January 4th, 2020 at 1 PM Pacific. Unlike the lower leagues, Level 41+ species aren't currently allowed in the Master League. Running alongside of the Master League is also the Master League Premier Cup, which allows for a more diverse meta due to the banning of Legendary Pokémon from entry in battle. Here is a breakdown of the current top meta of the GO Battle League for the first leg of Season Six.
PVPoke, which calculates the GO Battle League meta in Pokémon GO based on the species stats, levels, and movesets, lists the top choices for Master League Premier Cup in Season Six as:
