Not only are they an adorable Grass-type Pokémon, its Rillaboom evolution is an excellent choice to use in the Pokémon Go Battle League, where even more rewards are on offer.

Picking Grookey influences the Galar Calling Special Research story, with tasks requiring to evolve it into Thwackey and Rillaboom. Other tasks offer players a chance to earn more Grookey Candies.

Those who select Scorbunny have an element of Fire influencing their Galar Calling story. Plenty of Scorbunny Candy is on offer, alongside additional chances to catch the fiery rabbit.

Selecting Sobble adds Water influences to the Galar Calling story, with objectives including evolving it into Drizzile and Inteleon.

On the other hand, the choice of Pokémon often comes down to personal preference.
