I think the main reason that those people are "not trying", is 1) because it is low elo, so people have not build pvp mon's or they are newer players, or 2) because until rank 10, it doesn't matter if you win or lose in terms of ranking up, and if you lost a lot before you hit rank 10, you will be queued against worse opponents
The only time low ranked matches really get serious is when a new season rolls in and everyone's rank resets. It's only when you get around level that things really start to get heated. Edit: Level 20
@@XACTIC_Valour Well, he played SO MANY games. Its extremely weird that he played against that many bots (I dont think I ever played against one). I have two accounts and I played lower ranks having less season left and I was not even put against bots x) People on rank 5 start using meta pokemons for me lol
I think why there were bots. What I think is that newer people to the game want to battle but they don’t have high cap Pokémon so they go with the smallest rank
Quagsire is actually an extremely good Pokemon in the great league, ranking twelfth as a shadow and twenty-second as a non shadow. It helped me get to rank 20.
Bro is starting at rank 8 at literally the END OF THE SEASON and is asking if this is how pvp is... meanwhile everyone that actually plays pvp is rank 20 or higher.
@@ThePokeKraftor if i really need that particular legendary pokemon for my pokedex i would do raids there because is a community in the town near me and as i said i only do pvp for the eilte tm and badge completion then i stop until the next season
hey mystic, its just 14 days for the season to end,mid ladder would be swarmed by bots or casual players who are just there for a stardust grab. It doesnt really get serious till around rank 18 by this time of the season. Its the early season when the ranks reset when lower levels have higher contention . (i had an ocd attack when i saw u level up the bad iv noctowl to battle please dont do that again :") )
The noxious swamp event started about an hour and a half ago for me and I got on an hour in, first two checks were both Skrelp and the second was a shiny, then the very next check was a shiny gulpin
all the good PVP players play the first week or so that a new season starts, after that its people who aren't as dedicated or haven't done all the meta research stuff to have the great teams
I'm sorry, but this proves nothing. On lower levels the battles seem easy and many people throw (or even quit) their battles because you don't need to win everything to level up. But rank 19/20 is where the real push begins. That's where the algo also kicks in and tries to keep you at around 53% of wins, it will hard counter your team just to keep the balance. However there are no bots in the pvp, it only seems at those low levels because those players dont care about the meta, don't have double moved mons, don't know the switch/shield tactics at most times... So yeah, even thought i like your videos, i don't really like this one. To me it makes no sense to talk about meta before level 20, it will only help you rank up faster.
All this time youtubers were fighting if there was an algorithm or not and in reality there are a lot of bots in GBL. What a ground breaking finding Brandon!
Funny thing is though that most people who were in that tournament used the same team of Pokémon because the PvP isn't nearly as deep as people think it is
Brooo don’t starpiece before you even do the battles. Just wasting time on the starpiece. Do battles, pop starpiece if you won enough, claim rewards. You can then get a another whole set in on the same piece :)
I always throw games every time we don't have to win a battle for research. It's not a part of the game that I will ever enjoy. More power to those who like it and continue to get better at it. I just don't have the patience to learn.
It’s just that in this point of the season towards the end most semi dedicated PvP trainers have reached either ace or expert or even legend depending on skill and RNG and if we’re being honest…the Algorithm

Came here to say that, my daughter just started and is and the same rank everyone sucks, using all they have
And also, it’s really late in the season… more “traditional” PVP players are far from these low rankings…

Same. Everyone uses meta pokemon even in the lower ranks. I totally agree that these were all bots.
How often are you rank 8-11 mid season tho?

Brandon surely that did not count. Surely you can redo this challenge when you reach rank 20
Yes!
Exactly 💯
6:51 not those aren’t bots they are just new players with low CP Pokémon, I’ve been there 😐
But see some of their names. Only bots have long alpha numeric names.

Nah it’s just that bad players are bad at pvp
bots dont exist
I really, and I mean REALLY, thought the team starting with Quag was gonna be real
Me too! Like I was hoping they were gonna be real 😂
why does the champion in a game looks like someone who doesnt even go outside while the game is about going outside

Yup got a wild onewith the exact pvp ivs
Dude Quagsire is so underrated for pvp. I never see it but it's soooo good. I unfortunately don't have a good one yet tho lol
I'm waiting for a team rocket event so I can change frustration from the shadow quagsire
The next one is October 26.@@tiagonicolodi2237
thats today @@tiagonicolodi2237
As someone who left pokemon go early (now returning) seeing this "new feature" to me is so fun lmfao although I need more pokemons to build something
FYI Quagsire is actually a meta pokemon, essentially the other option to swampert
I think u should try Battling people on ur friend list, which will atleast fun/ challenging for u too. However good job like always!

Mystic 7 my favorite Pokémon go fav RUclipsr
The moment you said "If I lose, I'll transfer one of my shiny Pokémon" all interest in the video just died for me.
this video was so different and fun to watch!
Love how he uses the wrong moves on the Pokémon’s
"Am I playing with bots?" got me 😅
Same but here it is AM I PLAYING BOTS
Dang I think you proved Poke Ak right
My sister is around this rank and plays like your opponents😂I don’t think these are bots
Let’s just all acknowledge that he called hitmonlee, hitmonchan

First vid I’ve watched all the way through in a while, please make more gbl content! I get it might now be as fun but it’s a huge part of the game
8:09 that is me😂
I Laugh a lot, this video is great, GG mate!
The reason for that is they throwing random pokemons bc its pvp day and they get easily so much stratdusts
The happy Gilmore tap tap tap 😂
Pokemon Throwfest 😂
It’s cuz if u throw games early when u rank up to GBL niantic will pair you with trash players so you’ll win more and gain better rewards easier
"AM I PLAYING BOTS" thats funny
I'm pissed I don't get those battles when I have "weak connection"
i can recommend pawniard, crypto tyranitar and seismitoad in greaat legue this tteam got me till rank 14 at moment and i dont play that much leag
I was the Pikachu wearing hat guy in the start of the video! This is so cool!

At that low of a rank, literally one meta pokemon can sweep a whole team.
Funny thing is though that most people who were in that tournament used the same team of Pokémon because the PvP isn't nearly as deep as people think it is
Bro this is your job, how do you not know lol sliiiiiiiippin
Mystic ik this sound really dumb but I’m pretty sure u fought my mom in this video💀
Throwing games is the most efficient way to grind dust. You aren't going to find anyone who play seriously if you aren't at least rank 20 1400+ elo
I wish I got game-throwing bots when I played pvp lol
Brooo don’t starpiece before you even do the battles. Just wasting time on the starpiece. Do battles, pop starpiece if you won enough, claim rewards. You can then get a another whole set in on the same piece :)
before rank 15, there is no challenge at all..
Season ends in 10 days, all the trying people already moved to at least rank 20.
He should get to rank 20 when he does these videos so that there not BOTS
I believe that because mystic didn't have a high rank, he's getting bots. It's late in the season so not many people would be near his rank.
7:39 it is hitmonlee😅
One time I battled someone with 3 mewtwos😂
Tip for ultra league:charzard, alakazam, and machamp
If people were throwing matches they'd use level one Pokemon

from my discovery's they use bots up until you hit 2 star rank and then they use actual players
It was not hitmonchan it was hitmonlee
what the hell why am I against a frickin cyber sportsman every game?!
Yes Brandon, rank 8 is just that low xD Especially near the end of the season.

Hello i have a question charizard or dragonite in pokemon go??
It’s called not having thousands of candies to power up pokemon.
Your first match espeon was only 950cp in the 1500cp league
