At 6:28 this was me. I think we even played 2 times on that day, where I lost one. However gg. The Varoom was kinda a surprise. Had no idea what moves it even knows 😂
I have a shadow hundo shuckle as well. I actually have it fully built and best buddied. Spent 400k stardust on Fully XLing a Maril. Not even having fun. It's either a boring mirror match or I win 100% of the time. Awful cup.
QotD: I don't know if it's THE worst Special Cup, but it definitely ranks close, if not tied for it. I think the Electric Cup meta was abt as pure RPS as you could get, but I digress. I really appreciate this video! After testing the waters w/ a team (and getting handily destroyed by the Shuckle/Maril core), I nearly despaired when I realized that I had neither a XL-worthy Shuckle nor Maril. Watching your Shuckle/Maril-free team video gave me some great ideas for my own team (I didn't have a sub-500CP Varoom, so I substituted w/ Mawile). I've had mostly positive sets, unless they have a Mud-slapping closer (ouch >__
QoTD: With the exception of Shuckle, this feels like the most balanced little cup we've had in a while, although that's not saying a lot. I finally get to use my rank 1 LC Zubat that works pretty well now that Bronzor is not around, so I'm happy.
Little Halloween cup is the worst for two simple reasons 1. It is a level 50 cup run at the same time as anither level 50 cup 2. It is a cup with a meta limited to a single core These are basically the two criteria to look for in worst cup. The only other Criteria woild be a cuo that is dominated by an unreasonably restricted exclusive Pokémon
Seems pretty rps to me. Basically only getting wins if I lead my Skorupi into Marills. If it's a Shuckle lead I can't flip the games at all. It's not a skill issue either it's just how broken and overpowered Shuckle is. They NEED to ban this pokemon. Marill I can handle. It's too OP too, but it's easier to handle than Shuckle. And if they have both of them on their team it's just a guaranteed loss unless I can completely hard counter them the whole time. It's not fun. Halloween cup in GL is my favorite cup and I was excited about little Halloween cup and it's not fun at all. I don't do ML and I don't have a Shuckle so it's almost pointless to even play. Even if I had a Shuckle I wouldn't run it. It's a garbage pokemon and Niantic is remedial for thinking this was going to be okay.
Yeah this little cup is worse than that 1 day in July 2021 we got Bidoof Little Cup. Bidoof even got 4 legacy moves that day (Ice Beam, Shadow Ball, Superpower, and Thunderbolt)
QOTD: every type of little league and the Catch Cup. The Catch Cup is very specific and you have to catch certain pokemon very soon during it and it sucks. As for the Little League cups, it’s just plain bad. Almost NOBODY actually builds pokemon for it and end up stuck with the awful ones and it’s really dependent on shields. I think the game would be much better without both of them.
Catch cup is something I've always enjoyed I'm a "newer" player who doesn't have a lot of mons built, but every catch cup I gain around 3-400 elo because I keep adding to the collection
@@Pichi-Z I was implying that the rotation doesn’t make sense. There should be a 1500 cp cup every rotation. Instead this week we have zero and next week two. I have never and will never play ML.
Between gbl problems and bad rotations, and the new 40 person gmax features and stuff I think we really do need to boycott for a while to get our points across to niantic.
I'd normally agree with you but in this meta you're putting yourself at a massive disadvantage by not running those 2. In other metas you can absolutely get creative & stay competitive, but in this meta, a lot less so.
I still think the worst cup ever was the Flying Cup...my god. There were like the same two or three Pokemon on every team. If you lost lead it was near impossible to come back. I'd play little Halloween cup ANY day over Flying Cup.

you'd think little cup formats would be accessible for all players. most of the top 10 aren't accessible for a majority of the player base. this is absolutely the worst rotation that they probably thought was genius.
Yes! Worst ever. Spend dust and candies to power up most recent mons only to never use them again already already have regular teams made with movesets and powered up. Waste of dust n candies. These ones aren't as bad. I do pretty good in lil cup leagues bc I don't bother with 2nd charge moves. I'm using carbink in the lead, shadow purrloin as the safe swap and shadow mightyena to close out
The 'Go do something else" cup
@@geoffrymcgary 🤣😭
The “Go catch shuckles” cup

@@YGK90 GGs!
Qotd: this is Def the worst. Shuckle and marill aren't scary😂
I frickin love seeing shuckle get destroyed!
QOTD: The worst cup in the worst season of GBL. The game is more broken every year.
Absolute doggers. At least ban those two.
The satisfaction when you see shuckle players trying to abuse it But loose anyway 😂 gotta love it
QOTD: DEFINITELY! I'm not sure why Shuckle and Marill aren't banned. It's not even fun or fair battling against them.
My first shadow hundo was a shuckle… I still refuse to build it 😂
The number of 0/15/15 shuckles I have far outweighs my luck at getting other good shadow Ivs
I have a shadow hundo shuckle as well. I actually have it fully built and best buddied. Spent 400k stardust on Fully XLing a Maril.
Not even having fun. It's either a boring mirror match or I win 100% of the time.
Awful cup.
Why shuckle isn’t excluded is beyond me. It’s the worst thing ever
Maril, somehow, feels even more oppressive
Qotd: certainly the worst - have never had so many time outs
QOTD: Master league. it's so difficult to get the xl candies needed. don't mind it existing, but we need an accessible cup alongside it
Very impressed with you making such an entertaining video with such an uninteresting meta! Cheers Callum! Love the vids
QOTD : probably little halloween cup. Ban shuckle and marill and this cup would be way better
QOTD: Yes, taking the crown away from flying cup and johto cup, which were sharing it. At least in those cups, the overused 4 pokemon were accessible.

I love this team! In never thought I’d enjoy watching a video for this cup but you proved me wrong. Great video!
QOTD: No matter what I hate using mons only in the season cup. They expect people to have dust like that.

Niantic need to learn how to balance the metas, is the vigoroth in evolution cup once again, there are no way to use off meta pokemon
Got a shiny Galarian Articuno today first time I used daily incense in months and I never even seen one before! Totally pumped but want the moltres.
Lol was it 10 minutes to this video before we saw a team without marill/shuckle core? :D I sure won't be battling for a week
It’s actually been my fave lil cup in a very long time. its not completely rps
What team are you running tho?
@@CallumOnToast Skorupi, Leavanny, and Cottonee. Doing positive

@@ky03tmoses18 here’s the thing, you’re wasting your energy on something that we all know and understand. Niantic bad. We know this.
Honestly i recommend everyone send a borderline abusive complaint to the help chat for this absolute travesty of a decision
Nice week of Relaxation is good too, considering lag is permanent
QOTD: Not really, it’s fairly fun. I feel like the catch cup is always annoying af since it is just a toss of luck.
Truly, why is Shuckle now just allowed in Little Cups. It didn't used to be.
QOTD: Either way you have to have level 50 Pokemon to play this cycle. So invest into either a Ho-Oh or Shuckle
I played 2 matches in this cup and that was all I needed to see.
Yeah this little cup is worse than that 1 day in July 2021 we got Bidoof Little Cup.
Bidoof even got 4 legacy moves that day (Ice Beam, Shadow Ball, Superpower, and Thunderbolt)
Thanks for the team mate,
Atleast now i can beat shukl
Honestly, the Sunshine Cup is probably the worst I've ever played (each time it has come around in fact). It's the most RPS meta, for me.
that shiny quilfish is beautiful! I only have the hisuian version shiny :(

QOTD: Worst cup ever was little catch cup.
Qotd: Yeah, this is definetally the worst
QOTD: This is the worst cup ever. And next week we have two 1500 cp cups to choose from. Makes zero sense.

I played one set and said “no thanks”

This cup would actually be fun if they banned shuck and Marill only if....
Not even the Fighting Cup was this yucky
I'm personally loving the match ups but I'm Elo 2000 today thanks to this cup and matches 🙃
Get good
Why the hell did they ban cacnea from this cup for, goddamnit i had a shadow shiny built and ready for exactly this cup wtf niantic
It's just a pure grass type
QOTD: Yes, by a mile.
I blame the player base for ruining every meta, 90% are running shuckle and marill. This is every cup and league, no originality or skill

@@CallumOnToast that’s my point, and then you’re playing 5 min mirror matches
But great vid as always!
@@jeffrhodes8103 it is never the players fault when the most optimal way to play the game is unfun, that is the responsibility of the developers
@@kaled8839 well the most optimal way for them to make money is you grinding the xls for a one week limited cup

Every time I see a shuckel or meril in the lead, I top left 😂
Damn bro hasn't played out a single game yet

its terrible but guys, remember the psychic cup? shit was a complete joke
Shuckle used to be always banned for a reason. Keep it banned
