Pokémon GO Battle League Season 7: Ultra League Meta April 2021
The GO Battle League Season Seven is on its final leg in Pokémon GO. Great League and Great League Remix have wrapped up, and now Ultra League, which limits Pokémon to a CP of 2500, is currently active. Prepare to take your buddies into battle with this guide, breaking down the top species to use in Pokémon GO Ultra League battles right now.
According to PVPoke, a platform that plugs in the stats of each species to determine the top meta of each league and cup, has the top twenty Ultra League choices in Pokémon GO listed as:
- Registeel (powered up with Candy XL): Lock On, Focus Blast, Flash Cannon
- Cresselia: Psycho Cut, Grass Knot, Moonblast
- Talonflame (powered up with Candy XL): Incinerate, Brave Bird, Flame Charge
- Shadow Abomasnow (powered up with Candy XL): Powder Snow, Ice-type Weather Ball, Energy Ball
- Abomasnow (powered up with Candy XL): Powder Snow, Ice-type Weather Ball, Energy Ball
- Galarian Stunfisk (powered up with Candy XL): Mud Shot, Rock Slide, Earthquake
- Altered Forme Giratina: Shadow Claw, Dragon Claw, Shadow Sneak

This time around, we saw fewer major changes and more minor. Altered Forme Giratina rose up a couple of spots while Shadow Politoed, which previously narrowly missed the Top 20, raised a spot to knock off Regirock, who has now actually slipped to the 26th rank.
