From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Gym Cups (Japanese: ジムカップ Gym Cup) are a type of competition in Pokémon Duel in which figures of certain types gain special gym effects. Figures whose type matches the main theme of the Gym Cup with MP0, 1, or 2 gain 1 MP and figures of a certain type which is super effective against the theme type in the core series games have their White and Gold Attacks deal +20 damage. Players can set a deck to be used in Gym Cups much like they can set one for regular League Matches. The Gym Cup screen can be accessed through a button on the regular screen and contains another button to return there. By winning Gym Cup duels, the player can climb a point ladder to gain achievement rewards. In addition to the notable rewards listed below, these also include various enhancement figures as well as gems. Trophies are also awarded for completing certain requirements.
Gym Boosters
Winning during a Gym Cup awards players with a Gym Booster. Similar to a Time Booster, these contain figures as well as enhancements. Each consecutive win increases the number on the booster as well as the number and rarity of the rewards inside. Gym Cup participants have their Booster number indicated during Duels and matchmaking is done between players with similar Booster numbers. At any time, players may open the Booster, resetting their streak and matching them against weaker opponents in their next Duel. After a loss, players must open their current Booster before participating in their next Duel.
