Haunter is DESTROYING the Kanto Cup Meta in Pokémon GO Battle League!

[@ZyoniK]

GO Fest is 5$! -> pokemongolive.com/post/pokemongofest2021-announcement/?hl=en

[@beannn5722]

Hi I am finally early

[@UnitedEditz2]

I’m hyped!

[@emirtascioglu1242]

Hopefully they don’t lower the standards because they are lowering the price

[@youtubeuserxix]

I'm gonna buy the ticket tomorrow! Let's see what they have in store this year, especially those in the raids.

[@tvaettis0653]

What a bargain!

[@shubhamgune1168]

7:28 The mini boom got me cracking :)

[@DanOttawaPOGO]

I thought about using Haunter for this exact reason - ghost plus sludge but even watching this reminds me how truly glass cannon it is.

Wassup dan u wanna battle now

Rock blast won’t one shot, there’s no way! 🤣 LMAO 🤣

Felt it like some words from the king, PogoKieng, really good one XD!

[@Evan77771fourth]

Is there anything better than seeing people who use charm lose?

[@spinutto]

Not only that, I'm surprised this is still being called Kanto cup. since everyone runs Alolans and Fairies. smh...

[@sdmhussain5435]

Absolutely, Fire types and Slowbro seem to be doing good against those dolls.

[@frank95xxx]

8:05 "Go Battle Lag has other things in mind" I totally feel you, man. Niantic should do something about their crappy servers.

[@bdel80]

I feel they are using google servers. As Google slowed down a few weeks back. KZbin, google.com wasn't loading. Tried Yahoo it loaded strait away. Pokemon go also had the same problem as Google at the same time. It was fixed at the same time as each other. Looks like they need to pay google for more bandwidth and servers.

[@keanurene7829]

7:30, "high pitch boom" 😁

[@punkemonthrash6747]

I wrecked this exact team setup with a Kangaskahn that only had Mud Slap & Crunch

[@raritica8409]

Nice seasoning in ya spice

[@kansascity9058]

that was me at the end with the Venusaur double fire. i did my best with the bad lead and switch, but i knew it was over as soon as i saw Snorlax. you can see me hunting for a win con that just ain’t there. ggs bud!

[@p.as.in.pterodactyl1024]

I wonder how it would have unfolded if you switched into your A-Wak right at the beginning instead of into Charizard. A-Wak doesn't do well against Haunter if I'm not mistaken, but sometimes the thing that on paper seems worse ends up better in the overall match. Not that you could have known what your opponent had before switching.

[@kansascity9058]

@@p.as.in.pterodactyl1024 yeah in hindsight, maybe i switch in aWak, he brings in Snorlax, and then i can farm the Snorlax with Venu or Charizard??? man, idk. tough line for my team, and he never gave me an opening. pressed his advantage beautifully. textbook. no worries though, just having fun with weird teams

[@Captain1512]

Yo man nice team can't wait to tell everyone in discord u went against him oh wait everyone else already beat me to it lol

[@kansascity9058]

Also avoid getting the video demonetized

[@NickooRT]

I'm not playing anymore, but i'm here for the content and the booms! Nice one

[@brokestatus8893]

I was running super power on my Snorlax and changed it to Skull Bash. It takes a little longer but with the defense boost it seems like a better move than the debuff of Superpower.

[@frankxu3713]

man, you are so good!

[@marcsaad3454]

I used Haunter a lot in open GL. It's fun

[@geetanjalijoshi585]

Amazing team bro

[@lost7017]

You revived the haunter before this no people were using haunter but now they are useing it. :)

[@leon-zt7wu]

7:20 lmao i was scared because of the main game's 80% accuracy

[@jakesalem8671]

been using haunter+gengar w/ clefable, surprisingly effective for how little thought and energy i put into it.

[@mattkirk6908]

Been running him with dark pulse and sludge bomb and loving it lol

[@firojfiroj4150]

what if we boom with graveler haunter and alolan muk with poison jab and gunk shot ??

[@heshamalsahili6664]

I got a bit spicy team for ya, Lead: Alolan Ninetails Save swap: Electrode Venomoth: with Confusion, poison fang (For fairy) and Bug Buzz (powerful bug type move) I've been winning around 3.5 / 5 with the team

[@XxIronVanSabbathxX]

I have swept entire teams with just a haunter lead. 90% of the time a clefairy/wigglytuff/Azumarill never shield the sludge bomb

[@jfmangano]

It feels like kind of a dad joke to say Haunter and Gengar are always *scary* if you don't have a strong answer for them, but it's true. Glassy as all heck, but they do damage in a hurry. Very fun team.

[@abhikumar-im1vj]

I've been using Haunter in lead since Season-2 and it's a beast. Also people don't usually shield the Sludge bombs and Haunter easily booms😂 and it's one of the best Azumaril counters.

[@baileydeburns4219]

Times like this makes me glad I ran primape, alolan muk, and snorlax

[@jtstyle20]

Incredible team I like it! So strong! I’m using Beedrill, Snorlax and Mew

[@SpiritCannon]

I've I've running haunter even in retro cup. it shreds. Always keep a sludge bomb on swap for thr charmer in thr back

[@shash8048]

Goodness! Not sure if this is the right way to say it, but the commentary was at the peak during A.Graveller vs Shadow Machamp 😆😆

[@ZaOnly420]

That one shot "boom" in the charizard lol

[@bdel80]

Charzard is a spicy pick I feel with all the electric moves flying around and A-Graveler

[@sdmhussain5435]

I am using a Slowbro with Confusion and Ice Beam along with Magmar and Ivysaur. My win percentage has improved since then!

[@emmagregoriusson2933]

I have used Venasaur/Alolan Graveler/ GOAT and done really well!

[@ireport4582]

ive actually been tearin that ass up with shadow golbat

[@Tiemsch]

Alolan Graveler and Shadow Snorlax is such a strong core. I run them alongside Ninetales and lead Shadow Snorlax. I went 22-3 and 21-4 last two days in 3100 ELO :)

[@TheDanKDoctor]

I run your snorlax, a-marowak, and hypno team.. very solid.. haven’t lost yet which is amazing

[@davidmanzoney1534]

AlSo running it, very strong!

[@manojsrivastava1788]

Amazing team

[@dteaa5433]

I've been running a team that's put me up 80 wins all sets have been the same as some split decision making made me lose a tight game. Never gone under 3/5 with this team. Just from today with 5 sets I went 19-6; The results have been the same since the beginning of the cup. Consists of a lick user a pokemon with psychic nature and a user of charm. Went 20-5 with 5 sets took screenshots of time stamp on journal

[@frankiew1922]

Why not run gengar with the same move set as haunter? Just wondering if there’s any difference

[@ZyoniK]

Wanted to share a easy to get option, Gengars Shadow Punch is a legacy move from community day. But they are very similar in stats and coverage.

[@charlesthreatt7096]

I been running shadow dragonight and double charm it did ok. But dragonnight lax and hypno works better

[@chirandeepdey4060]

The haunter literally Haunt the kanto meta . Goodgame zyonik

[@sarangkotimagar4370]

arent the evolved form more useful in pvp like gengar insted of haunter

[@bdel80]

It depends on the moves the pre evolution gets and how the levels work vs the cp as you can level up a pre evolution more so more points into the higher level and not going above the 1500 mark. Look at pokepvp website for ranking and more information

[@muralidharanrajagopalan5930]

alolan muk : all of your moves are resisted haunter: boom

[@josel.rodriguezgarcia2980]

I have all these mons but decided not to use them. What I am rocking is Kanto Golem. That thing eats A.Graveler and Haunter on fast moves alone. If you want to try that Kanto Marowak is better with less weaknesses but I'm just flexing a rank 80 shiny Golem.

Yeah gengar didn't pan out, switched to Haunter set 2 and took off :). GGs :)

Looking for pidgeot with gust Swampert with hydro canon I have shiny machop shiny sneasel.

[@landanduval8006]

what’s the difference between haunter and gengar?

[@ZyoniK]

Basically boils down to Gengar having focus blast and legacy shadow punch, haunter has shadow punch that's not a legacy move and no focus blast

[@adduritarun7851]

Hello Zyonik ! love From India ❤️

AGrav is a great mon, I use it with AWak and Pidgeot

[@vqqiu2179]

You'll get destroyed by charm teams mate, would recommend keeping some good counters for that

[@manuelchristiancaparas2041]

Certainly, when opponent switches to wigglytuff, i rely on gust damage then farm with AGrav/AWak

So what makes you use a Haunter instead of a Gengar? Teach me, senpai.

[@KnightJRL]

Curious about that myself. Best guess is that maybe he didn’t have a good PvP IV before Gastly Community Day ended, and Shadow Punch is the better move choice for PvP over Shadow Ball on either Gengar or Haunter.

[@SuperBobby47]

Shadow punch. It's available to haunter but on gengar it's legacy
