This is what happens when you give a fairy a Ground move. I always wondered if they'd ever do it because Ground hits all 3 types fairy doesn't and it seems really strong. And apparently it is
@matheus074 I used it back before high horsepower and it was glassy, but could spam decently-damaging moves. I'm interested to try it in open great league now that it has fairy wind and high horsepower 🤔
@Okcool472 I think a fairy with a ground move would be better in general than a dual fairy/ground type because with a ground typing a fairy WOULD lose the poison weakness but it would also pick up several other weaknesses. But the more type combos the merrier and I would like to see every type combo represented rather than millions of the same flying/normal, fighting/fire, steel/bug etc. combos
I've run High Horsepower since day 1, still gets shielded and I still go negative every set lmao. I think the threat of a Megahorn nuke is just too strong so the mind games have not been working
Fairy Wind on G-Rapidash is busted in this meta. I’ve been running High Horsepower and Megahorn and it’s insane how quickly it gets to its charge moves.
I got my Galarian Slowking from community day today. Hex, surf, and shadow ball. It's a beast. I just went 9/10 with Shadow Gallade and Bruxish. I'm sure you'll be posting a video with your own GSlowking soon. Can't wait to see it. Love the videos. New to the channel and loving the content. Keep it up.
After 4 charge tms I got high horsepower again, and I stuck with it BC everyone has a bronzong/victini/poison Doesn't matter. This cup was a good idea but the same 5-6 same Pokemon over and over again....so disappointing (and boring😢)
Yea last few days I've been running bruxish claydol and g rap.. but bruxish is running WG AT and C .. claydol Ms Sb Rt and G rap usual moveset .. the fish gets too moves quicker plus stab damage. Claydol most shield so rock tomb debuff been nice. I did hit 2375
finally a feature where the pokemon with its spice being what actually HARD carries these games (looking at you naoivern and the past 928 things niantic released)
I got a Shiny Medi from raids, with decent gbl IVs. I know it’s bad in this Meta but I just wanted to test it out since I spent $$ to level it up. Was messing around with Shadow Gard, Medicham, Bruxish. had a couple 4-1 sets a 3-2. Opponents saving shields helped a bit, but also catching/swapping to preserve some health on Gardevoir seemed to leave some options for the endgame. I’m low rank though 😂
I am kind of starved on stardust currently so I won't be able to get my galarian rapidash up to speed or a proper team for psychic cup. Maybe after farming ultra league I'll try out a team. My current ultra team isn't quite meta but I'm winning 3-4 battles per set using shadow gliscor, shadow articuno, magnezone
Hey ZyoniK, not sure how to submit teams or anything but try using Oranguru, think about it. He's resistant to ghost/psychic and also he has foul play for this cup, I've done really well with him on my team really throws people off! 😅
This cup is one of the extremely few cases that we desperately needs bug psychic type (Blipbug line), and the only bug type fast move a psychix pokemon have is hidden power... never thought the time when bug type attacks will become top meta
I've been using High Horsepower for 2 days now. It's better than Megahorn against Fire (Victini), Steel (Bronzong and Metagross) and Poison (Galarian Bros), because it's super effective instead of neutral. It's basically the same against Fairies (Gardevoir and opposing Rapidash), because it's equally neutral. The only change is against Bruxish and Malamar, because they took super effective from Megahorn and now it's just neutral. But as it turns out, both are basically almost also KO'ed by a HH, since they are squishy. And it's basically the same energy, Megahorn is 7 6 6, while HH is 7 7 6. So, it's basically an overall improvement against the meta, I don't see any reason to use Megahorn instead of it. The only match I can think is worsen off is against Claydol.
I would love to have the high horse power move. I’m afraid it’s gonna take too many charge TMs to get it before they go rocket event coming up. I highly doubt I’ll get it on the first one. 😂
I’m running Psychic Cup with Bronzong (Feint Attack / Payback), Meowstic (Sucker Punch / Energy Ball) and Galarian Rapidash (Psycho Cut / Megahorn). Been averaging four or five victories in each set.
Okay I added Body Slam to my Galarian Rapidash and it helped my average a lot! It’s especially useful for drawing out shields quickly or taking down Shadow Gardevoir.
IV question: would it be more beneficial to run a higher ATK stat G-Rap in this meta, due to the inevitable and abundant amount of G-Rap mirror matches, and winning CMP? Or still the conventional wisdom of playing the highest rank mon you can
Thank you for your video yesterday, I used Rapidash instead of Gardevoir after a set of battle yesterday with Victini and Raichu. Gain 250+ ELO into the Ace rank.
Am I bugging …why am I facing ppl in GBL with 3 shields? Something is wrong with this fxcking game. There are times Im pressing to left off a charged attack, and my opponent gets 2-3 more shots in and let’s off their charged move
After this video everything is gonna run rapidash with HH 😅, no but seriously it’s an underrated move for rapidash to have. I just went 10-0 with bruxish victini and malamar, personally I think that’s the best team I’ve used for this cup specifically
CallumonToast destroyed me with this thing with high horsepower last season in UL premier cup. I just held my head in my hands because it was at that moment I knew I would appear in a video at some point getting memed. Luckily I haven't seen it yet... hopefully he wasn't recording that day😅
Another Cup dominated by Legend players. I'm not playing these cups. LOL Niantic can do away with these cups as they are dominated by META pkmn from Legend players.
This is what happens when you give a fairy a Ground move. I always wondered if they'd ever do it because Ground hits all 3 types fairy doesn't and it seems really strong. And apparently it is
thats why one of the reason why G.Rapidash so far are the ONLY FAIRY that have decent ground coverage...
That’s why we still don’t have a Fairy/Ground type in the entire national dex
I Wonder if this makes GRapidash viable in open GL

I have been using High Horsepower and I have caught so many opponents off guard is just unbelievable
Booms were everywhere 😁😁
same
Same!
I've run High Horsepower since day 1, still gets shielded and I still go negative every set lmao. I think the threat of a Megahorn nuke is just too strong so the mind games have not been working
Today I new that tapu fini has ice beam is well while I was battling with my venasaur.
It was a very fun battle
Fairy Wind on G-Rapidash is busted in this meta. I’ve been running High Horsepower and Megahorn and it’s insane how quickly it gets to its charge moves.
Nah, Even w/ good IV's rapidash is lowkey a glass canon so thankfully it offsets its moves. Makes it more interesting IMO w/ fairy wind

Play rough has really helped me mess up malamars
Well now everyone knows, it was fun while it lasted 🌝
I surprised a couple of battelers as well in these first 2 days. 😂👌🏻
I know I one shotted like 7 victinis only one shielded
After 4 charge tms I got high horsepower again, and I stuck with it BC everyone has a bronzong/victini/poison
Doesn't matter. This cup was a good idea but the same 5-6 same Pokemon over and over again....so disappointing (and boring😢)
My favourite victini boom 💥🤯❤
Well, I saw the moveset coming. I wasn't sure what to put with it, though. Nice video.
Yea last few days I've been running bruxish claydol and g rap.. but bruxish is running WG AT and C .. claydol Ms Sb Rt and G rap usual moveset .. the fish gets too moves quicker plus stab damage. Claydol most shield so rock tomb debuff been nice. I did hit 2375
My Victini got boomed by HHP yesterday. I was one of the many who had forgotten about it 😂
Fun stuff as always! Cheers!
My Bronzong, Malamar and shadow Metagross is loving these double fairy teams
Imo fairy wind for rapi was unnecessary but except it helps in scrafty matchup otherwise it's an psycho cut clone which she has
finally a feature where the pokemon with its spice being what actually HARD carries these games (looking at you naoivern and the past 928 things niantic released)
And we tought swampert was proken

I used this same team except I’m using Aloan Raichu instead of Gardevoir.
Nice video!
My victini just got one shoted by this horse. I was like wtf😂
😈
Same 😂 I legit just dropped my phone and walked 😆

Who tf decided to give a fairy a ground move 💀
Fighting back against the things it commonly loses to, steel & poison
Hey ZyoniK, not sure how to submit teams or anything but try using Oranguru, think about it. He's resistant to ghost/psychic and also he has foul play for this cup, I've done really well with him on my team really throws people off! 😅
@6:28 peck malamar?
I was thinking it might be drill run but i guess thats just the other rapidash
I am using Gardevoir , claydoll and oranguru works pretty good but will try galarian rapidash
What about using Rock Tomb on Claydol. Mud Slap/Shadow Ball/Rock Tomb gets it a few more wins on PvPoke.
This cup is one of the extremely few cases that we desperately needs bug psychic type (Blipbug line), and the only bug type fast move a psychix pokemon have is hidden power...
never thought the time when bug type attacks will become top meta
Isn’t megahorn supereffective on most other pokemon anyway in this cup?
I just hear the super smash bar everytime Z gets a boom lol

It's better than Megahorn against Fire (Victini), Steel (Bronzong and Metagross) and Poison (Galarian Bros), because it's super effective instead of neutral.

"I boomed them out of the game" -ZyoniK 😂😂
I would love to have the high horse power move. I’m afraid it’s gonna take too many charge TMs to get it before they go rocket event coming up. I highly doubt I’ll get it on the first one. 😂
Does this still work for next weeks psychic cup? 😄
Same trickery happens when you put both thunder punch and wild charge on alolan raichu
I did. And for once Zionik had my setup!
Galarian Rapidash was my budget. No TMs, no Malamar
I’m running Psychic Cup with Bronzong (Feint Attack / Payback), Meowstic (Sucker Punch / Energy Ball) and Galarian Rapidash (Psycho Cut / Megahorn). Been averaging four or five victories in each set.
Okay I added Body Slam to my Galarian Rapidash and it helped my average a lot! It’s especially useful for drawing out shields quickly or taking down Shadow Gardevoir.
Well thank you, I'll be shielding all rapidash charge moves now 🙃
The homie had to much fun lol bommin
Priceless 🤣
6:22 PECK MALAMAR?!
I was able to get a Rank-1 Glarian Rapadash during the time it was available in the wild. I am having a lot of fun using it in this cup
This was one of the teams last season. It worked great. Still using HH on my Rapidash to great effect.
Some smart play with Rapidash 🔥
Well, there goes my fun with high horsepower Rapidash :(
Soz
@@ZyoniK well at least I can have fun with my hidden power bug duosion.
Can admit, got my galarian slowbro twice lol 😅
You have no idea how fast I went to reroll my dash’s charge move after watching this 🤣🤣🤣
npc
@@phenom1tsmith you’re the npc bozo enjoy this ratio
Npc
@@KeyNeezy idk what that means. try thinking for yourself.
Don’t sleep on Claydol.
Hope to be able to use this team too😊
Very strong team! 🔥
IV question: would it be more beneficial to run a higher ATK stat G-Rap in this meta, due to the inevitable and abundant amount of G-Rap mirror matches, and winning CMP?

Pretty sure a 0 atk at a higher cp would have a higher atk due to level.
Thank you for your video yesterday, I used Rapidash instead of Gardevoir after a set of battle yesterday with Victini and Raichu. Gain 250+ ELO into the Ace rank.
Nice work!

Let off*
Lmao, this is the team I was talking about yesterday! So good in this cup. Except I run Megahorn still. Helps me handle annoying Pokémon like Bruxish
I used HHP becuz I ran out of Tms, its great
Dang,imma try this on my rapidash too
Zyonik make boom boom
You have to try,
raichu - lead
Rapidash - switch
Bronzong - closer
High horse power is the weakness of my team
Malamar lead
Bronzong switch
Claydoll sweep
No no no no. My secret weapon in open Great League is no longer secret. 😓 I boomed so many Bastiodon, Galarian Stunfisk, and so on with it..
High Horsepower is a great choice for this cup
Get synchronoise for your Shadow Gardevoir 🤲
Holy boom
who let this man cook?
Every BOOOOM, an angel gets their wings 😌
😂🤟 i love it
After this video everything is gonna run rapidash with HH 😅, no but seriously it’s an underrated move for rapidash to have. I just went 10-0 with bruxish victini and malamar, personally I think that’s the best team I’ve used for this cup specifically
First time trying it one shots a Metagross trying to take advantage of my little pony😊
“Hey.”
I love rapidash nobody doesn’t know it’s has high horsepower. Boom 🤣💥
Hear me out: double nuke Dash 🤔
Lol. I saw it coming. It is my team
CallumonToast destroyed me with this thing with high horsepower last season in UL premier cup. I just held my head in my hands because it was at that moment I knew I would appear in a video at some point getting memed. Luckily I haven't seen it yet... hopefully he wasn't recording that day😅
They really should nerf or ban crypto Gardevoir that’s way 2 broken
Brushix
3 stocking everyone
Zyonik pregnant that's why he never fails to deliver 😂😂
Some UL please ! Some content for the try hard community 😂!
Dammit man stop posting my secret strats!!!!!!!!!!!! Jk obvi
You revealed my secret
Darn why are always secret weapons been revealed now everyone will know, not fun
Another Cup dominated by Legend players. I'm not playing these cups. LOL Niantic can do away with these cups as they are dominated by META pkmn from Legend players.
High horsepower is the recommended move on pvpoke, not exactly unexpected.
I think bcoz of you everyone think that my galar rapidash knows high horse power
When people us spam pokemon to win lol 😂 can't do it the smart way
"Gothitella" "Brushix"
Zyonik, I respect your craft, but you GOTTA listen to some official pronunciations of Pokémon names man. Please
Liar ! I play with the same team and i lose almost every battle. This is fake !
first
Surprised people are still playing this terrible cup
I got boomed by a G. rapidash just now. Onixpected
Onixpected, love it 🤣👍
First
