Pokémon GO Battle League Season 12 was given an entire roadmap as the Season of Light went live, and the Little Jungle Cup Remix will kick off the next three months of Cups. There are plenty of rules to follow in this Cup and some odd picks compared to the normal meta.
The Little Jungle Cup has gone live in the Pokémon GO Battle League before, which is where the Remix comes in. Some additional Pokémon will be banned from use to shake up the rankings. Dive into our guide to find out which Pokémon are at the top of the rankings now and the rules you'll have to follow.
Best Picks for the Little Jungle Cup Remix
Because of the low CP rules and the restrictions on types, the meta for this Cup can vary wildly. Add in some restrictions to Pokémon like Salandit or Shuckle and now players need an entirely new outlook on the returning Little Jungle Cup.

Little Jungle Cup Remix Rules in Pokémon GO
First and foremost, all of the Pokémon in this Cup have to be at or below 500 CP. Any Cup with little in the title follows this rule. Some Little Cups will require that the Pokémon be in its first form only, but that's not the case here. CP is the only number that matters.
On top of CP, there are types that are banned from use. Pokémon types that are allowed include Normal, Grass, Electric, Poison, Ground, Flying, Bug, and Dark-types. On top of the type restriction, there are six Pokémon that are banned entirely.
- Shuckle
- Smeargle
- Skorupi
- Cottonee
- Ducklett
- Salandit
Those are the integral rules for the Little Jungle Cup Remix in the Pokémon GO Battle League. You'll have until September 8 to play in the event, so jump in while you can.
