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.
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'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!
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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 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’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 🤣
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!
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 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
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 😅🤣
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.
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.
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🤣
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
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.
yesssss keep doing this vid format, not only informative, we also get the hey
Hey Z, I’m enjoying your new style of opening showcasing how you breakdown the process of team building.
The intro is really well done, it grabs viewer attention really well, it's short, informative and simple to understand, well done
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.
I was just wondering about the Love Cup meta! You're right on time 😅❤️
I like the new feature in your content with the team building at the beginning offering something nobody else is congrats
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.

Love the breakdown and theory behind the team pick
Thank you for introducing this team with a great breakdown. Please continue to do this!
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
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 once invested in scrafty then never regretted it lol, definitely a beast

Good game zyonik, can i use hisuian electrode instead of normal electrode because i have that for GL with great IVs
Good stuff Z, hope to catch you one of these days!
This team building idea is so cool and helpful
Can a shadow char work here?, I do not have a normal zard?
Could u try out ny charizard aggron and empoleon team I been using it for a min and winning a lot
Hey zyonik! will you try attack form deoxys in gbl😂😂
It has more bulk than cresselia🔥🔥
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.

Love the new video style
Thanks!
That “hey” in the intro to these gets me every time 😂
does talonflame work if i dont have charizard ?
Sizor for safe switch to counter charm users?
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 really enjoy your videos! 😀👍😎 Special kudos to you for not blaming some kind of evil algorithm when encountering hard counters! ❤️🙏
Talonflame is ok ? I dont have any charizard for pc1500
These types of intros are great!
Thanks!
ALWAYS loved HYPERBEAM for Electrode in this meta…another sneaky move set MEGAHORN on Ariados…
Same Pokemons except I'm using Lurantis instead of that electric Pokemon!!

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
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!

I have been using flash canon melmetal in UL with kommo-o on lead and trev
Hit legend with this team. Ty🎉
Congrats 🎉!!
Love your vids Z!
I had a lot of fun with this team especially with hyper beam electrode
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 just went 5-0 on my first set with Crustle in the lead, Electrode safe swap, and Scrafty.
why granbull isn’t allowed?
What if I used Buzzwole instead of Scrafty?
What is Charmer
Nice team!
I’m using Ariados/Scrafty/Medicham
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.
How to get wing attack on Charizard
Do you think Shadow Charizard would be decent on the lead?
Yeah it'll be deadly, especially with energy farm downs.
I ran the same core with Charizard and Scrafty, But with Galarian Slowbro
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
We almost have the same team. I use Galarian Slowbro instead of Electrode.
Yeah there's a lot of great 3rd options!
Medichamz. Charizardz. Erradose.
It's like a totally different game...
😏
Yooooooo! Just swapped hyper BOOM on my electrode. Clutch! Far better than foul play. Booked a clafable and took out an ariscos 🧔🏽♂️👌🏽
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
I have yet to seen even one scrafty in this cup
I did Charizard \ Scrafty and a Charme pokemon.
Did Great tbh
Why scrafty and not aria?
Been doing great with Scrafty, Alomomola and trash Wormadam personally!
Love this team😆hard counters my team licky Medi and zard🤣
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 😂
I guarantee you I will not see a single Charm user with the team I've been running. XD
I’m loving medicham s.charizard and lurantis for this cup
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!
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.

Zyonik please use darkrai team iam realy want ♥️
I use scrafty, miltank and sylveon.
You doing great work

Niceeeeeeee👍
They blizzarded your 1 HP scrafty🤣🤣🤣

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.
you look like vince gilligan
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 🫡
How dare you. I run Scrafty, Alolamola, Slowbro. Just hard countering me😭
Lets goooooo
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
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🤣
bro said “hey :/“
my team : ariados leading alomomola and electrode (swap)
Just my real love life the love cup is hanging me my ass 🤣 so I'm sticking to ultra league
I beat this team multiple times
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
I have a Return electrode
No one will expect this
Can I sub talonflame for the zard
You could give that a go!
@@ZyoniK k, thnx
Just so everyone k owe charizard is orange not red. Lol.
Hate charm users literally no skill required to use it
Lycaroc thank me later
