I remember when GBL first started, I was an avid believer. But I started tracking my leads- turns out it really is close to 50/50 whether it's a positive or negative lead. It's mainly up to skills if you want to climb.
Stop the cap before it was balanced bc I was able to go on a 27 streak in a row years ago now I can’t even go more then 5 battles with out the hardest counter to my whole team
I really like how you explain your reads, even if they're incorrect. I used to think I'd never get to the level where I could correctly predict the pokemon line up but showing your thought process, even if it's wrong, and still making it work fills me with so much hope and helps me out so much!
Been seeing this team SO MUCH lately, but stands out as a great team! Excellent showcase, one of the major themes that you showed when building a team is that "If your team cannot overcome a bad lead, it's probably not a good team". Those 9 wins showed that even though lead is lost, it's never fully over. Well played Zy!
You should probably throw an ice punch vs altaria leads since you get to an ice punch before they get to a sky attack and you're free to switch out right after. Does more damage than Noctowl's Sky Attack, making the matchup vs your noctowl ss less comfortable.
@@calvinjohn26yup it's insufferable 🤦🏾♂️ I was just telling my girl yesterday after playing against 4 ferrothorns -that I bet if I open YT, Zyonik had a team showcase for it and sure enough I was right! Sad these mfers have zero creativity and just rely on somebody else ideas to b be able to play!
Dumb question, but how do you manage to read teams while under pressure/counting fast moves etc? I know the teams start to become less random when you're at a higher rank (I'm currently only on expert) so you kinda memorize the patterns and move counts eventually, but i usually get anxious and so focused I just forget to read what's in the back 😅
I’ve got a highly ranked noctowl and Charizard but no medicham :-( Would a ground type work as a suitable replacement? Or something else? I was thinking shadow Quag or whiscash to deal with the steels/rocks/electrics? Or would another counter user like Scrafty/obstagoon/Vig/dubwool work better?
I am running same medi as yours just with psycho cut stead of counter n that combo is 🥜 literally i can win against altaria with 1shield scenario due to high energy gain of pc
I caught a Rank 22, 5/15/14 Charmander today. It’s a sign! 🪧 Also caught a 0/6/5 G-Fisk, already leveled up to 1498 cp in the wild. Lucky day, these are my best IVs sadly. 😅
i have a good Medicham, i just got my charizard and spent the 2 elite tm, what can i use instead of the Noctowl? i dont have a good one and i would like something else
Do you think it’s worth it to build a non xl medicham? I can build a non xl but I’m very very far away from getting my xl built. Is it worth it or not?
I realized not winning lead and getting double hard countered can be overcome watching the „pros“ as fanboy as this may sound … playing to ones wincon leads to wins more often than not…
I didn't understand the mindset of opponent battler in second last clip... Why not bring swampert in front of chatizard? Why the hell would you bring Medicham?? 😂😂
exactly my same thought...Zyonik was (rightfully) very confident about Charizard sweeping the backline after the double shield on Altaria, but that Swampert in end the seemed to catch him a bit off guard
dude im so tired of medicham and noctowl. Just the main Great League meta in general is so brain dead to play against. I run scrafty / ferrothorn / shadow charizard and while two of those are technically meta i almost never face other scrafty/shadow charizard. its like i'm facing sheep after sheep, using the same 5 or 6 pokemon every. single. time. i thought this was supposed to be the most balanced league??
When you ha e PVPoke and you pick a team of 3 that covers each others weakness and theyre in top of the list; it cant really be someones team. Its not creative. Its not unheard of. Its not difficult to figure out.🙄
You should definitely keep with the videos of you losing lead but still winning, helps alot, im excited to try this team tomorrow as ive already used all my energy today 🥲.
This video is proof there is no GBL algorithm
It's always within your control to find the win con :)
don't tell "him" that XD

If anything, it proves that there is. But you can still find the win con as master Z did here.

The moment video comes out people start to run hard counter teams for them
People = me , cause I know you all will run his teams

Just counter the counter the counter 😃
Sableye double rock 😉
Yes

It's such a good team, it wins against itself
Ofcourse he won he had the shiny, everyone knows shinys win the mirror
How I gain elo: wait for ZyoniK to post a team and build a team that hard counters it
Another nice video with Charizard in it ! Charizard is obviously a fan favorite. In recent meta you can build up to a lot of great teams around him.
Zyonik I’m excited to see some poliwrath videos this weekend after community day
Yup everyone done it
yup
Super informative video, thank you!

I’ve been thinking about using power up punch and dynamic punch on my 4 star Medicham just for fun.
Nice video.
Saw this team so much today. Beat it all but once
I am running same medi as yours just with psycho cut stead of counter n that combo is 🥜 literally i can win against altaria with 1shield scenario due to high energy gain of pc
1:10 if i was there I'll stay there😂
I only have a few 15/14/15 medicham that i am able to power up for gl. Is this fine until i get enough xls for a better?
Unfortunately this team never work for me😢..
I get lantern and bastidon backline when i run this team
I caught a Rank 22, 5/15/14 Charmander today. It’s a sign! 🪧
Also caught a 0/6/5 G-Fisk, already leveled up to 1498 cp in the wild.

love the meta teams recently
Do u think shadow charizard would work in this team?
“ put the dinosaur back into extinction”😭😭😭
The exact same team got me to rank 20 in pvp :) Only I lead with Noctowl
As a person that leads galvantula, thank you for posting this one
Love these open great league vids
I have a question bro why many of you pros not using a 100 %iv pokemon in pvp ( plz reply )
when i think of gbl you’re the go to man
If I only have one set of tm's, should I make a shadow or regular charizard
Blast burn sucks,im left with no shields always when there is a charizard in the back on my opponents team
What is the best replace if I don't have medicham ?
thanks
Only Zyonik can read the opponent’s teams
Should you run normal Charizard or shadow Charizard?
Im running this kind of team except I use vig as an alternate for medi. Unfortunately i dont know when will I get myself a medicham 😢
This is the Rank 1 in the world team from MatteorobP from last season! But was most likely around before as well :D
Yeah I faced off against it last winter, been around for a hot minute. Still amazing 🤩
I tried this team and ran into trev carbink basti twice in a row :( But when you do get a more neutral matchup charizard destroys everything
Wouldn't the shadow charizard be better for this team?
I have that AgentHQ person early in the vid on my friendlist😂
Gonna need some budget ultra league teams please
Suggest me a good dewgong team
ruclips.net/video/YGk510wf2eM/видео.html
Great entertainment 🙂
Beautiful Team🤌
Think the first time I saw this team was 2 seasons ago, I think Zarddy created it
does shadow charizard work here
Can I use shadow charizard instead of normal?
Probably
Hi zyonik, can you make a mew team ? love him but its been a minute sinc ive found a good team with him
Whats a good alternative to medicham? Any Suggestions
Defense deoxys
Scrafty
Hypno
@@ItsEmystichypno looses to Registeel, Galar Stunfisk and Bastidon not a good pick
Chansey
A neutral dynamic punch is actually more energy efficient then a neutral psychic
Psychic has the potential Defense drop to make up for its decreased efficiency
Just gained 200 ELO with this team 🎉
Sad that you didn't includ our battle ;)
I realized not winning lead and getting double hard countered can be overcome watching the „pros“ as fanboy as this may sound … playing to ones wincon leads to wins more often than not…
Watch out for an Azumarill encounter 😂😂
Medi and Noctowl win against azu and charizard wins up a shield.
Went 18-2, was lucky enough to face 0 Stun & Basti
Damn, people REALLY wanna get corebroken by Alolan Raichu. Is it time to bring that goat back to the forefront of the meta?
I wish I have a medi! Short on XL’s 😢
That is crazy you lost lead everytime
Niceeeeeeeee👍
And now everybody have sableye, lanturn, bastiodon hahaha
In B4 Lanturn in the back.
Would this team be as good with a shadow Charizard?
Finally a team i can make
Bruh this was the team I was running and now everyone is gonna know it
We should pay our respects to charizard before it gets dropkicked out of the great league by the influx of carbink after gofest…
I didn't understand the mindset of opponent battler in second last clip...

You should have spoofed for perfect IV 😂
Best Charizard team- three Charizards xd
Why you use so much meta team ? After playing for a long time wouldn't you find it boaring 😶
😬😬😬😬😬😬 it's meta time

Azu.
This team is awful for me, I get hard countered every match with every swap in.
Hey I can't defeat the deoxys, Umbreon and dewgong team when I face😢
Make a snip team
Team is weak to quagsire
If I had a Noctowl safe swap, I would face Walrein or Froslass 99% of the time
First
3rd view ❤
too soft against azu and jeli
Hate Medicham
Triple weak to carbink
I clap a Carbink 👌 15:40
@@ZyoniK thx for the vid I didn’t know that dynamic punch medicham beat carbink
Can you please suggest something in place of medi? I don't like medi @zyonik
