Best Switch Pokémon tier list

The Switch Pokémon on your team will be you swap between when you’re not using the Lead or Closer. You want to reserve your Closer Pokémon as the last option for as long as possible, so you’re typically switching between your Lead and Switch Pokémon. This choice typically doesn’t have as much defense and is instead considered a glass cannon. These are some of the best options available to you in the Ultra League Remix.

Your Switch Pokémon will want to use at least one shield. However, if you can manage it, you may want to use both of them on it, especially for something like Machamp, where it has extremely low defenses.

Best Closer Pokémon tier list

The Closer Pokémon will be the final choice you use in your roster. It should have the most defense on your team, and it should be considered the final resort that you use when battling an opponent. Despite having the most defense, it still needs a decent amount of attack to finish off the enemy team. These are some of the best options available to you in the Ultra League Remix.
