@@jfmangano lol well lapras and swampert have been proven to be an effective combo in GL so maybe it works in this league too. Lapras ice can beat most grass types except a few in GL not sure about ultra, though. Swampert EQ can also take out a grass type if its ahead in energy and is pretty strong, too. Scizor is absolutely busted in UL so I can see that team working kinda, but do you need the lapras in there, probably not, but it could work. Double water is pretty good compared to double anything else tho (well lapras is basically ice too but yeah).
Finally hit rank 8 for the first time, and now can run some more “for fun” teams. I found one that got me a lot of wins: Skarmory (air slash, sky attack) Cherrim (razor leaf, weather ball/dazzling gleam) and Probopass (Rock throw, Thunderbolt) really fun, pretty strong 💪
Bro these are my battles and Machamp puts in so much work on the lead versus this line, you ain’t kidding. For whatever reason I didn’t encounter him that often and was able to get to rank 10 before master league opened
@@kentb8621 If your team's weakness is rarely seen but you can handle most of the meta with it, then it's fine. Basically Caleb's teams in a nutshell. Amazing energy management! Hats off to you.
Hi zyonik, first of love the vids and content! Little question with the new season coming up. Can you maybe make a video with some guide lines on how to make some differend teams and what pokemon work good with others in the same team? Im kinda stuck with my 3 pokemon and i want some more variation in my fights so would be a great help. Have a nice day!
Hi Zyonik, big fan of your channel, your energy commentating the matches is fantastic. I have a question do you know how to correlate rank 1 wild catch pokemons vs rank 1 raid/hatch pokemon regarding their iv's? Example: Alolan Muk in Ultra league, whats is best, a 0 / 14 / 13 Rank 1 wild catch or hatched 10/14/13. Thanks keep on the excellent work and GL on season 3!
Zyonik bro your video's are asome and i like it all and your tips to build team is also asome and i have one request can u tell me for ultra league i want to keep obstagoon and giratina altered and the last one im not able to understand which mon should i keep can you help me with this
Hey Zynonik I need your opinion: What's a better charge move for Shadow Mewtwo? Psystrike, Shadowball or Thunderbolt? I'm using thunderbolt on PvP and it's kinda kicking ass. Maybe Thunderbolt with a sceondary move of Psystrike or Shadowball?????
I just hit rank 9 in the last available set of the day and Season. A 4:1 With Tina, Lapras and Gengar. In the final game Lapras had to take a frenzy plant, kill Meganium and Ice Shard down the last HP of a Togekiss. Survived with 1 or 2 HP.
He got to rank 10?! Man the algorithm must like this guy. Man this guy must be loved by the algorithm. This guy must be like one of the algorithms favourites
Hello zyonik. I was able to get myself a rank 1 pvp great league alolan marowak. And I believe you said once it's your favourite pokemon. Can you reccomend a team with alolan marowak for great league?
Zyonik, i just got a 2411 cp Snorlax out of the habitats rotating at go fest. Badly, I have no ultra or great balls at that time but luckily i caught it with a pokeball excellent with golden razz throw, its 71% not bad though considering its cp and its from the wild, wish i recorded or screenshoted that but im so nervous at that point thinking it was gonna run :)
In that situation, using a golden razz in conjunction with a regular pokeball made sense, but in general, using a golden razz with a regular pokeball is cringeworthy lol. Congrats on the successful catch!
They probs have to let the es cavalier go down then swap into lapras to give them a small chance, as if they swapped right into lapras then their opponent would just swap out
Ren Foley yeah i really only could win maybe 20-25% of those at the upper ratings but it didn’t occur very often. All teams have their weaknesses and worst case scenarios, you just play the hand you’re dealt.
You know what im sick of in GBL. Throwing 8 pokeballs at a snivy or an oshawatt. They are suppose to be rewards right? So why do i have to fight to catch something like snivy when i already faught to get it.
ninatic is dogshit 20 dollars for go fest after releasing multiple 13 dollar charged tm packages, and needing to buy more space constantly, smh. Nobody has time everyday to put pokmeon in gyms.
I have a double-legacy Lapras from January that is rank 131 and will hit exactly 2500 CP. I also have a non-legacy, but _shiny_ Lapras that is rank 157 and already powered up to 2490. I have 1 elite fast TM and 1 elite charged TM, but I'm hesitant to use them on my shiny Lapras. It would cost me 208,000 stardust and 214 candies to get my double-legacy Lapras powered up enough and I only have 35 Lapras candies... Can anyone help me determine if non-legacy Lapras is still decent? I could build my team such that the ice coverage is present somewhere else...
The flex is not worth it. To be honest those stats are a flex enough. Keep the current Lapras, it's perfect. I had a triple shiny team for great league but only used it in the low ranks thanks to flex but your Lapras is going to be for ultra so you can't really flex if you wanted unless spending the resources. I don't think you should though so do not.
I got to 1700 rating in season 2 and I’ve decided to leave it alone now I’ve done what I wanted to do and I don’t want to risk losing my rating which I worked so hard to get. Edit: In other news I reached 1789 on the last day of gbl and now I’m really leaving it alone
@zyonik i wanted to send you some videos to possibly shoutcast but i recorded them 1 by 1. I recorded the win tally at the end tho to prove they are all in a set lol. Wondering how i can send you a few links as oppose to just 1 link in your link for great league
Lapras is weak to fighting while dealing neutral in return, so Lapras is soft-countered by Machamp. Escavalier might seem weak against fighting because of the steel typing, but bug mitigates the fighting weakness, and it can also deal neutral damage in return (fighting does not resist itself nor ground), so it's not at any apparent advantage or disadvantage (not even rock slide will deal super effective against the bug typing via steel-mitigation). Registeel absolutely doesn't want to go up against Machamp though. A focus blast will still deal some major damage against Machamp, but things would need to line up in their favor.
Hey! I know that guy Kent.
Good shit bro!😆 That last battle was a sweep and y'all know it Haha
Awesome showcase! Loved using Escavalier and a bit of Lapras. Nice video 👌👌👌
The first and second battle deserves a place in battle of the week
Not the first
Sdecond definetly
Good play kentasauris guy. Swap on point, tap on point. Great call earthquake and close combat.
I’m running an entertaining all shadow team in Ultra League. Scizor, Lapras, and Swampert. Does pretty well in Rank 8.
I imagine that team neutralizes Giratina pretty well, but not very bulky outside of Lapras. If it works, though, more power to you.
Scizor does really well against Cressalia. It has an ok amount of coverage.
I mean scizor can get you to rank 10 with the right comp, hes busted in UL
@@meytah8382 Oh, no doubt. Just a concern about the team's structure, but he doesn't seem concerned.

the call outs on this battle are epic good job
Can you make a video on the uses of the elite fast tm
I'm gonna use it on my tyranitar to get smack down
At 12:23 they miss a circle and Lapras looks down at it lol
Hey zyonik have you bought the go fest ticket, please give some advice for the following weeks for non ticket holder

Nice, I'm at 1900 with 2 days left. Running a Snorlax lead, Skarmory, and Azumarill.
Machamp wants to know your location

That game 4 was simply amazing. All switches on point!

"Lapras is set for the end game." Yet the Avengers wasn't.
Just glad we didn't get too much Lapras vs. Lapras. That's not a showcase -- that's an eternity.

would you recommend using my 5/15/14 shadow lapras or is it too glassy because of the shadow low defense?

Can you put up all the team ups for azumarill??
Since Escavalier is a Bug/Steel type, both Superpower and Rock slide do neutral.
He got to rank 10?! Man the algorithm must like this guy. Man this guy must be loved by the algorithm. This guy must be like one of the algorithms favourites
Not only got to rank 10 but sat on the leaderboard in all leagues for the entire duration of S2. The algorithm must really love me!
Comment below if you lost to a fury cutter Sceptile in Premier League
I just need a togetic to get togekiss
Go fest?
Togepi's second move unlock is cheaper then it is for Togetic , you will want to evolve a hatched one to get an cheaper second move
Awesome thumbnail 👏

How do you win from a charizard on the lead?
Lmao they're screwed if that happens
They probs have to let the es cavalier go down then swap into lapras to give them a small chance, as if they swapped right into lapras then their opponent would just swap out
David, this is my team. You let escavalier go down and kill it with lapras and pray they’re weak to what you have in the back. That simple
@@kentb8621 thought so
Ren Foley yeah i really only could win maybe 20-25% of those at the upper ratings but it didn’t occur very often. All teams have their weaknesses and worst case scenarios, you just play the hand you’re dealt.

Mate is infernape good in great league
If you build a team which can counter infernapes weaknesses then yes
Not really
Could benefit from a meganium in the back for azumarill coverage and then an azu in the back for flying type coverage
Infernape is just a bad version of Blaziken. Squishy as fuck and you have no good second charge move option for coverage.

Fighting pokemon will kill this team ..... but this team is nice
Today was my lucky day. Got a shiny groudon on first raid, a kyogre with 15/15/12 and a hundo togetic.
Btw I am not participating in go fest.
Another case of a semi different Pokémon doing great but is also surrounded by the top meta
You ain’t getting to the very top of the leaderboard by ignoring the meta.
Lapras it's beautiful on 2500
Just wished lapras was not double legacy

Thank god I didn't invested anything in a Registeel...
They elite TM- ed the Lapras
not really, i have one that's double legacy too and I didn't either, there was an event where the research breakthrough was that lapras
I have a double legacy 98%lapras
Oh my god. The whole team is weak to fighting type. How did he manage to pull it off.
Hey Zyonik Do you know CarryMinati
I do
Machamp will eat this team alive
