Fwiw, this would probably also do okay as Love Cup Ultra team too Electrode is a little underpowered there only getting to 2373 @50 Or you could substitute Electrode XL for Talonflame XL for a hope you save shields for Brave Bird ABB line
I really like how you breakdown building a team around a certain pokemon. They way you present your video is super easy to understand, informational and unique as no other creator does this. You've found a jewel that sets you apart from others.
I remember running a PuP Psychic Medicham, Lunge Cross Poison Ariados and Pychic Hydro Pump Alomomola last year and I had a 20 win streak with the team. Good times.
My opinion…Electrode is the best sage swap in love cup thank you for giving him the credit he deserves. Now, there’s no strong teams,or unbeatable Pokémon’s on any league or meta, no matter how strong your team looks there’s always gonna be a hard counter to it,for example Im using Magcargo , Ariados , Wiggles… your team looks super strong but has 0 chances against mine…but mine hace 0 chances against some other teams, again, Go battle is 20% gameplay, 80% good luck having alignment
I've been having a lot of fun with my "Love Bugs" team: Magcargo, Ariados, and Scolipede. I think it could be even more deadly with Crustle, but I'm still hunting for a good one.
I've been having fun playing with magmortar. Lots of people forget he has access to thunderbolt, so I often find myself swapping him in to farm down a pokemon, bait out a water pokemon, then near one-shot them. Not very practical for climbing, but like I said, very fun!
So, I started with this exact team but kept running into double charm teams and couldn’t get anywhere. I’m nowhere near as good as you your viewers but I love the comprehensive way you set up your teams. I ended up switching to a rank 1 medicham for the scrafty. Went on a tear for two sets and only lost like 5 games with a 10 game streak. Thx again for the vids and the heads up on switching.
5:05 I remember running Double Charm back in Season 10 of Love Cup, despite me hating Double Charm. After getting a 4-1 with it, I got to 2681 but dropped down to 2543 which resulted me to go onto a twelve loss streak for the second time in my life.
I had a fantastic run with Gal Slowbro(poison jab,sludge bomb/psychic), Miltank(rollout, body slam/thunderbolt), electode(volt switch,discharge/foul play). A lot of unexpected thunderbolt booms with Miltank
This is awesome Zyonik. Gained 600 ELO with this team today, you cracked the code! Does get torn apart by Macgargo double Charm if you can’t land the hyper beam, but otherwise such a great team
Thanks for this build. I appreciate the tips. I was running a Charizard, Magcargo, and Lurantis team with fairly good results (3-4 wins per set) but I have no answers to a few teams and lost 5 in a set multiple times.
Would this comp also work with shadow Charizard? I played shadow Charizard with scrafty and didnt have a good safe Swap and found my Charizard gets farmed down a lot.
I'm the player at 6:51.. I hoped you wouldn't feature my battle haha. I wasn't very experienced with this team, I just used it a couple of times before. And when I saw "Zyonik" pop up I was so excited that I totally gave away the game. At least I could impress you with a shiny Alomomola if it wasn't for my play style, I know you are a way better player than me so gg 😁
I really like your videos zyonik! I've watched this one and the one with ariados lead but I think the team jonkus showcased that I've used might beat both these! I did alter jonkus a bit, which is I had magcargo as a lead (rock throw), and then lickitung and wigglytuff in the back so it's not a classic ABB but rather ABA I guess but it worked well around the 2400-2500 with a lot of charizard or ariados leads
Hey zyonic just wanted to drop by on this video and say THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS TEAM! was ably to push 500 elo to the 2900’s and hopefully legend by the end of the season
Nice job ZyoniK! I ran a magcargo, Alomomola, and lurantis team I check on pvp it’s not the safest but I went 4-1 mainly due to a mis timed focus blast but always enjoy your gbl videos they are awesome
I love your knowledge of the pokemon! I often come across pokemon who I just haven't got a clue what moves they have! I can get to about 1.9 in the rating....that's my limit I think..very gg!
I’m having a blast(burn) playing shadow charizard, buzzwole and registeel as a finisher in the ultra league. You should try it out, buzzwhole destroys many popular pokemon like the steels/swampert and is underrated in my opinion! Gotta watch out for the fire types but charizard deals with those.
I used almost the same team. Miltank was my safe swap instead of electrode. Thunderbolt those amomolala or however it is spelled and lots of shields through body slams. Rollout too man I've got crazy amounts of wins
@@ZyoniK nice ya my Charizard is a really bad iv with dragon breath I always debate if I should used an elite charged to turn it to wing attack but I'm always scared I'll catch a good IV one and be mad 🤣
Nice I was wondering why i was running into this team for three sets. Bad luck for the opponents cause i built an anti macargo team. I ran into to many macargos. Crustle, Medicham and Scrafty was my team at the end. Winning the lead was so crucial in this matchup.
I believe Nidoking has potential to corebreak some teams in this cup. Once I come up with a proper team I believe he will perform nicely against the meta.
Comments, explain to me how Scrafty is not just a worse Medicham in this meta. Like is hitting the Slowpoke/bro/kings harder worth using a Pokémon that is even weaker to Charmers, Zard+Talon, Medicham, Ariados because it really doesn't feel like it considering how common the latter are
My Team for the Love cup if anyone’s interested. Miltank with rollout & ice beam , Solrock with Rock throw & Solar beam and Alomomola with waterfall & blizzard . On first attempt I have a 7 win streak and so far I’ve found there doing unbelievably well. There only doing good in this cup though k I doubt they’d do well in my other cup or regular league. Found the swaps are pretty safe like 7/10 times , and they work well to help counter each others counters. This was also cheap , costing me literally NO , stardust at all , didn’t bother learning a new charge move or using a TM on them.
Only really got into PVP within the last couple of seasons (returned to Pokemon Go last year). Started watching your videos so I could see what pokemon were worth investing in with my limited dust.. If anything it hasn't helped as you seem to make everything work 😅🤣
I rarely play pvp. I got up to Rank 12 with mostly wins using a fairly trashy team bec i dont have the stardust to invest in an electrode and i dont have a scrafty.. Rank 11 is when I started losing a lot. Only won 2 out of 5 or so in rank 11 and 12. Some were close losses and some felt like i faced a cheater/rigged game cause they had 2 Pokémon (1 full HP) on win. I was using alomoma as the “safe” and a Sylveon and shadow Magmar /w fire punch
This is GBL = you can counter them and they can counter you. When you know you can do nothing else: top left and throw in the towel as it's going to be a loss anyways.
Aye Kanto Electrode is such a great safe swap in this meta, due to the lack of ground types (I have not seen anyone playing Camerupt between 2200-2500) Currently running a very boring, very safe Ariados, Electrode, Alomomola team. It's fine, although was able to Hyper Beam a Blissey swap twice earlier, that was satisfying
Hard counters. Do i have very bad luck, becouse i get very often counters in pvp. 🤔 i have tried to climb up ace to expert. Thers No way becouse theres so many counters team, so my points are dropping. Even i had try different partys, wont help. Guess Lucky me🤣
Sorry about the UL graphic during the battles. This is great league love cup!
Fwiw, this would probably also do okay as Love Cup Ultra team too
Electrode is a little underpowered there only getting to 2373 @50
Or you could substitute Electrode XL for Talonflame XL for a hope you save shields for Brave Bird ABB line
Imagen UL love cup 😂😂
We’ll let it slide
@@eldee67 how many Love Cup mons even get to 2500 😂
Very Very Thank You for this team....LOVE YOU
I really like how you breakdown building a team around a certain pokemon. They way you present your video is super easy to understand, informational and unique as no other creator does this. You've found a jewel that sets you apart from others.
Yes 100% agree!!
Preferring these intro’s about how and why you built the team. Also explaining the strengths and weaknesses.
Hey Z, I’m enjoying your new style of opening showcasing how you breakdown the process of team building.
I remember running a PuP Psychic Medicham, Lunge Cross Poison Ariados and Pychic Hydro Pump Alomomola last year and I had a 20 win streak with the team. Good times.
yesssss keep doing this vid format, not only informative, we also get the hey
I was just wondering about the Love Cup meta! You're right on time 😅❤️
My opinion…Electrode is the best sage swap in love cup thank you for giving him the credit he deserves.

The intro is really well done, it grabs viewer attention really well, it's short, informative and simple to understand, well done
I've been having a lot of fun with my "Love Bugs" team: Magcargo, Ariados, and Scolipede. I think it could be even more deadly with Crustle, but I'm still hunting for a good one.

I like the new feature in your content with the team building at the beginning offering something nobody else is congrats
Using Charizard,medi,electrode team
Has a great success with this team
Able to gain around alot of success with this team,At 2700 elos
Love the breakdown and theory behind the team pick
Thank you for introducing this team with a great breakdown. Please continue to do this!
So, I started with this exact team but kept running into double charm teams and couldn’t get anywhere.

I once invested in scrafty then never regretted it lol, definitely a beast

Hey zyonik! will you try attack form deoxys in gbl😂😂
It has more bulk than cresselia🔥🔥
This is awesome Zyonik. Gained 600 ELO with this team today, you cracked the code! Does get torn apart by Macgargo double Charm if you can’t land the hyper beam, but otherwise such a great team
This team building idea is so cool and helpful

That “hey” in the intro to these gets me every time 😂
Good stuff Z, hope to catch you one of these days!
Love the new video style
Thanks!

I really enjoy your videos! 😀👍😎 Special kudos to you for not blaming some kind of evil algorithm when encountering hard counters! ❤️🙏

ALWAYS loved HYPERBEAM for Electrode in this meta…another sneaky move set MEGAHORN on Ariados…
Hey zyonic just wanted to drop by on this video and say THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS TEAM! was ably to push 500 elo to the 2900’s and hopefully legend by the end of the season
I had a lot of fun with this team especially with hyper beam electrode
Good game zyonik, can i use hisuian electrode instead of normal electrode because i have that for GL with great IVs
Nice job ZyoniK! I ran a magcargo, Alomomola, and lurantis team I check on pvp it’s not the safest but I went 4-1 mainly due to a mis timed focus blast but always enjoy your gbl videos they are awesome
These types of intros are great!
Thanks!
Medichamz. Charizardz. Erradose.
It's like a totally different game...
😏

I’m using Ariados/Scrafty/Medicham
I used almost the same team. Miltank was my safe swap instead of electrode. Thunderbolt those amomolala or however it is spelled and lots of shields through body slams. Rollout too man I've got crazy amounts of wins
Yeah miltank looks so good! Almost have mine ready!
@@ZyoniK nice ya my Charizard is a really bad iv with dragon breath I always debate if I should used an elite charged to turn it to wing attack but I'm always scared I'll catch a good IV one and be mad 🤣
Hit legend with this team. Ty🎉
Congrats 🎉!!
Same Pokemons except I'm using Lurantis instead of that electric Pokemon!!
Nice

I have yet to seen even one scrafty in this cup
I believe Nidoking has potential to corebreak some teams in this cup. Once I come up with a proper team I believe he will perform nicely against the meta.
Comments, explain to me how Scrafty is not just a worse Medicham in this meta.

because it really doesn't feel like it considering how common the latter are
Could u try out ny charizard aggron and empoleon team I been using it for a min and winning a lot
Yooooooo! Just swapped hyper BOOM on my electrode. Clutch! Far better than foul play. Booked a clafable and took out an ariscos 🧔🏽♂️👌🏽
I just went 5-0 on my first set with Crustle in the lead, Electrode safe swap, and Scrafty.
Love your vids Z!
Can a shadow char work here?, I do not have a normal zard?
Been doing great with Scrafty, Alomomola and trash Wormadam personally!
Sizor for safe switch to counter charm users?
My Team for the Love cup if anyone’s interested.
Miltank with rollout & ice beam , Solrock with Rock throw & Solar beam and Alomomola with waterfall & blizzard . On first attempt I have a 7 win streak and so far I’ve found there doing unbelievably well.

Love this team😆hard counters my team licky Medi and zard🤣
I ran the same core with Charizard and Scrafty, But with Galarian Slowbro
does talonflame work if i dont have charizard ?
We almost have the same team. I use Galarian Slowbro instead of Electrode.
Yeah there's a lot of great 3rd options!
Do you think Shadow Charizard would be decent on the lead?
Yeah it'll be deadly, especially with energy farm downs.
I did Charizard \ Scrafty and a Charme pokemon.
Did Great tbh
I have been using flash canon melmetal in UL with kommo-o on lead and trev
Only really got into PVP within the last couple of seasons (returned to Pokemon Go last year). Started watching your videos so I could see what pokemon were worth investing in with my limited dust.. If anything it hasn't helped as you seem to make everything work 😅🤣
Welcome back! Best bet is to keep tabs on pvpoke website with the rankings!
@@ZyoniK yeah, got a few decent core teams now. Still learnt a lot from your videos though so thank you, keep up the good work!
I’m loving medicham s.charizard and lurantis for this cup
I run the same team with medi instead of scrafty. I don't feel like electrode has the stats to be a good safe swap. I always swap to medi
Zyonik please use darkrai team iam realy want ♥️
Talonflame is ok ? I dont have any charizard for pc1500
You doing great work
I guarantee you I will not see a single Charm user with the team I've been running. XD
I rarely play pvp. I got up to Rank 12 with mostly wins using a fairly trashy team bec i dont have the stardust to invest in an electrode and i dont have a scrafty.. Rank 11 is when I started losing a lot. Only won 2 out of 5 or so in rank 11 and 12. Some were close losses and some felt like i faced a cheater/rigged game cause they had 2 Pokémon (1 full HP) on win. I was using alomoma as the “safe” and a Sylveon and shadow Magmar /w fire punch
Hey man i wanted to ask you Is you could do a tier list about PG fast moves or charged moves. If you could do that that would help a lot
This is GBL = you can counter them and they can counter you. When you know you can do nothing else: top left and throw in the towel as it's going to be a loss anyways.
What if I used Buzzwole instead of Scrafty?
They blizzarded your 1 HP scrafty🤣🤣🤣
😅
why granbull isn’t allowed?
What is Charmer
How dare you. I run Scrafty, Alolamola, Slowbro. Just hard countering me😭
I use scrafty, miltank and sylveon.
I loved this type of editing first teel about the team then battles plz make these type of videos on mega master
Watching from India 🫡
you look like vince gilligan
Bro my team is that fish slowpoke and aridos the spider and I am winning 5 in 5 bruhhh 💪💪 gg game
i played you today. you were running charizard medi scrafty
GG's 💛
@@ZyoniK ggs! i was playing crustle medi scrafty. you safe swapped medi which drew out mine. i hit top left when i saw your scrafty 😂
bro said “hey :/“
Why scrafty and not aria?
How to get wing attack on Charizard
What is going on everybody Zyonik here *DING*
Z pls put this back in your vids, i cant start eating my snackies until i hear the pavlovian bell
Ps love the new breakdown intros! So great
my team : ariados leading alomomola and electrode (swap)
I beat this team multiple times
I have a Return electrode
No one will expect this
Lets goooooo
Niceeeeeeee👍
Aye Kanto Electrode is such a great safe swap in this meta, due to the lack of ground types (I have not seen anyone playing Camerupt between 2200-2500)
Currently running a very boring, very safe Ariados, Electrode, Alomomola team. It's fine, although was able to Hyper Beam a Blissey swap twice earlier, that was satisfying
Just my real love life the love cup is hanging me my ass 🤣 so I'm sticking to ultra league
Hard counters. Do i have very bad luck, becouse i get very often counters in pvp. 🤔 i have tried to climb up ace to expert. Thers No way becouse theres so many counters team, so my points are dropping. Even i had try different partys, wont help. Guess Lucky me🤣
Just so everyone k owe charizard is orange not red. Lol.
Lycaroc thank me later
Hate charm users literally no skill required to use it
Can I sub talonflame for the zard
You could give that a go!
