Which Pokemon take on the tournament?

It is nice to have 2 Pokemon with 3MP in the team, 2-3 Pokemon with 2MP and stronger Data Disks, and 1-2 Pokemon with the best Attacks and Protections, even if they have only 1MP.

Some Pokemon figures are good enough without any Gym effects – such as teams of Deoxyses and Reunicluses. We recommend collecting a deck with available to you Pokemon of Rock and Steel types, and then compare them with your usual Pokemon. Just take the best creatures!

And here is the list of the best Pokemon with advantages in this tournament. You may see not only the appearance of the figures and their names on the pictures but also their Data Disks. Exploring the list is very useful for Pokemon trainers, even if you don’t have these Pokemon in the collection – maybe your opponent will have them, so you will know what to expect in a Gym duel.
