Machamp got BUFFED - is it META!? Great League Team in GBL for Pokémon GO!

[@jia2001]

16:03 I think Niantic should change a tie to a tie and not a loss. If you tie the game you should get to play a rematch without counting as a loss that is just so wrong.

[@supershinigami1]

true

[@charlottesphie7037]

Not effect elo rating. In this case without elo rating still no problem.

[@wfhordey1630]

I do agree that a tie should not be counted as a loss. I do not agree with the rematch as the outcome may be the same because you already know your opponents team and moveset. Viewed another way it's double the effort for a single outcome. It's not a bad idea just doesn't work to me. No elo rating for that battle would be a better option IMO if they could somehow work that in.

[@jia2001]

@@wfhordey1630I mean rematch with another random player not the same player.

[@charlottesphie7037]

@@wfhordey1630 its not counted in your win-lose ratio history bro.. if the result is 2 win,2 lose,1 tie. The count is only 2-2. Hope u understand my bad english.

I reached veteran for the first time last season, I’m excited to see how far I get this time, good luck to everyone 👍

[@matheus074]

I've hit veteran for the 1st time two seasons ago and last season i got to legend! Keep grinding and you'll get there too, GL!

[@d0ubletap586]

I did a few seasons ago amd havent since

[@gabrielgiacoppo6998]

Same thing here! Good luck everyone

[@artemisgray9463]

Same here, good luck mate.

[@TheFerretmonger]

Me too! Gratz and good luck!

[@TanTheMan_]

GG man! (Shadow Startaptor team) I tend to run random teams early season, best time to have fun! 😅

[@ZyoniK]

ggs! I was totally surprised when i saw that, such a deadly pokemon!

[@Weiting-1026]

Always enjoy your video, and great to see Machamp come back to be meta❤

[@90krzywy]

I've been watching you for a long time, and today I won the Great League with you :d My best rank veteran :p

[@ZyoniK]

ggs! 💛

[@PaulDk]

15:30 why not undercharge there? overloading on energy can be done before or after throwing your move, or am I missing something?

[@johnweig4667]

GG zyonik. We just played haha. Your tropius is a big core breaker for me! But I clutched it thanks to minus defense on hakamo o:)

[@ZyoniK]

ggs! such a close game, that was supposed to be my next video but the footage got corrupted on saving and I lost it. So sorry, it would have been in the video.

[@johnweig4667]

@@ZyoniK noooo it would be a good example for buffed brick break because I think the minus Def saved me! Have a nice day

[@charlottesphie7037]

Doesnt matter you can easily undercharge that return zyonik. And a couple shadow claw will do the job.

[@memmo4338]

Thank you Zyonik I was looking for a good structure to play Goodra and I think it can fit in Machamp’s place haha

[@chitoramirez5246]

Gg man I love these battles 🎉🎉

[@jacobnile8579]

If you had a shiny sableye with zero star appraisal, would you use the shiny over a regular 3 star one?

[@YahvultalPKMN]

I tried Shadow Gallade today and its a beast went 17-8 with it Also, what I learnt is that a resisted close combat does slightly more than a netural leaf blade because of stab

[@chrisskovross8050]

What team did you use with it?

[@milenap8131]

Hey zyonik!! I just started playing pokemon go and last season was my first season, I reached rank 20 with bronzong, Charizard, and Alolan Ninetails. Do you have any tips or changes?

[@krushna4181]

I reached ace rank with jellicent (bubble, surf, shadow ball), steelix (dragon tail, psychic fangs, breaking swipe) and pretty much anything which is not weak to electric and grass.

[@rudydeleon8288]

I thought we were getting Empoleon today 🤷‍♂️

[@pants3737]

Day ain’t over

[@rudydeleon8288]

@pants3737 day is over and didn't get the Empoleon video lol

[@shsz1984]

I found myself trading blows with my Shadow Machamp against Skarmory (Steel wing) more than once. The Cross Chop buff is quite noticeable against it! Definitely meta.

[@johnrainsman6650]

Two questions: one, what are the first main things that happen when you play Pokemon Go for the first time? What's "level one" like? I'm totally new at this and have never played, so that's why I probably sound naïve and silly. I might download the game. And two, if I post a picture on my channel of Machoke and Machamp, can someone (preferably someone who knows anatomy art) take a look and give their opinion? Mostly about their arms and muscles.

[@godithdadrag]

I went 20-5 with the Charjabug/Lantern today - definitely a fun play against all the Empoleon and Feraligatr out there

[@iercan06]

I enjoy the start of the season because we get to match with opponents of all levels. :)

[@Crushergamin]

Are you going to cover goodra? Or make a team for it?

[@shoeman12384]

So glad you brought back an old team that relies on lots of skills and pivots.

[@The33GizMo]

What would you replace Sableye with as a closer ?

[@Amaterasiux]

I'm using same team, but with venusaur instead of sableye, works wonders!

[@bunce2806]

@@AmaterasiuxWhat do you do when you get a bad lead? Neither Machamp nor Venu are safe switches.

[@Amaterasiux]

@@bunce2806 venu is quite safe imo, didnt see too many flyers or fire

[@artemisgray9463]

"Learning Lesson". Wild guess but you haven't been watching Rick Tocchet press conferences, have you? =p

[@KushDaddySenpai]

Try a s. Quagsire with aqua tail. You will not be disappointed

[@adrianmacklin418]

Is it good right now?

[@KushDaddySenpai]

​@@adrianmacklin418 better than whiscash imo

[@BobSmith-bd4oo]

Forearms are better than four arms. Let's see a machoke video 🙃

[@Anonymous-cu5cx]

Whats the best alternative for sableye in this team?

[@ZyoniK]

could do annihilape

[@Anonymous-cu5cx]

Thanks! And can you make a team with venusaur

[@martinrodal8687]

Question! I'm noticing most of the mons you use aren't 0/15/15. Are you showcasing that pokemon doesn't have to be perfect to be used? Or what're your thoughts on ivs in general?

[@ZyoniK]

No need to be perfect at all, in fact my Registeel is like rank 3,200. IVs aren’t as big of a deal for GBL, because you’re facing so many random players. They matter more in the Play Pokemon Tournaments. Best advice, power up the best one you got and replace it later (unless it’s XL)

[@ArmwrestlingFan240]

Can I use Quagsire instead of machamp?

[@en20drayt87]

yes actually

[@AlphaClubY2K]

I invested in a shadow one 😢 realised that my win con with that thing in any game is 2 - 0 shields. Wish I purified it (2/14/14) was its shadow IV

[@tobiasgoris4300]

Shadow much better imo. Be happy :)

[@Forged4War206]

It's not unusable, but I genuinely don't see any reason to use it over the other dominant fighters we have rn. Cress and Annihilape are also everywhere.

[@adrianmacklin418]

What is unuseable?

[@en20drayt87]

I GOT A RANK 258 MANKEY LETS GOOO

[@AjayKumar-xp3ze]

[@davecubs14]

Let's go!

[@KEALII0KAMALU]

Would anybody build a shiny purified 2 2 11 sableye?

[@dominicknatale5866]

Havent played in forever. Watched this and said eh why not. Ran melmetal and quagsire. 1st match had a talonflame with a ferrathorn. I get my spelling on poke names are wrong so what lol. The games algo is unreal and total shit. Let us match people with elo but at pure random. They need to stop this hard lead double counter bs. Theres SO many pokemon in the game do people really know what the odds are of running into double counters 3 of 5 games.

[@1ryangiggs1]

First game I go up against alolan raichu, skarmory and alolan marowak. This game is just rigged beyond belief

[@KushDaddySenpai]

Nope its not. Still gets pooped on if it can't outpace damage and no shield advantage

[@AS_SHIDO]

can I use a lickilicky instead of a lickitung??

[@RachelsSweetie]

It's amusing how you credit your opponents with team building and battle skills when this early in the season it's more like the wild West and you get many opponents more like me and less like you.
