This Annihilape Team is Very Strong!

[@MarcoSportelli]

13:37 I love the pauses! More on the commenting/teaching and less match-up narration is always super interesting!

[@danijel57]

ya, the play by play is great

[@adrianmacklin418]

I liked it better the old way

[@fr.andygutierrez5356]

I just want to echo that I’m totally for this format of pausing the battle and giving a quick explanation. Super helpful, thank you!

[@Random_Guy69]

2023: what is in the back? 2024: wiggly , victree , medi in the back

[@donavonbain4332]

Definitely appreciate the pausing and more in depth analysis!

[@narutoitf]

Too much pausing in my opinion

[@mandem_anthem]

You don’t shout cast user submissions anymore?

[@JackKelly-ky5rw]

Death, taxes, and dewgong safeswap

[@ZyoniK]

😅

[@infamouson3157]

You love your Dewgong, as do I. Well I mean I like my Dewgong...not yours.

[@richards9750]

That Basti, and double razor leaf team is pathetic. I hope they get deleted by a Talon Flame

[@zacksheets9726]

I started running your Defense Deoxys team from yesterday and it was amazing. It's a shame I didnt run it sooner

[@milksandwich8560]

Lol, yes, we appreciate the cuts... Even as an experienced player, I always love to see people's analysis/breakdown on their gameplay decisions!!

[@FlaCKoElRey]

Good stuff brother. Always, #1 in my book. Hope, all is well

[@Oobi666]

“It’s thick with it” 😂

[@Oobi666]

I’m pretty low elo and it’s rlly a 50/50 for me (I think cause I’m not that good) but I’m running alolan sandslash (SC/DR/IP) gligar (WA/SA/Dig) and Annihilape (Counter/IP/SB) If anyone has any suggestions for any different mons plz lmk

[@MajinSageofDarkness]

No more MONKEYing around Zyonik!😂

[@ZyoniK]

😅😂

[@michaelmercado4784]

Anybody else see those horrible IVS 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 don't listen to him just grind until you get good IVs cause that team will get SMOKED in higher ranks

[@anguinechip]

My UL Team with Annihilape is: Shadow Ampharos, Golisopod and Annihilape Gotten some AWESOME results with this

[@asadullahhaider2636]

[@hamadabassibas1278]

Yesss!!! Keep pausing and explaining your thinking process. This is much better for us to understand and learn more.

[@kellennani748]

Annihilape lead, tentacruel usually switch, drapion anchor but sometimes also switch

[@jayb2705]

I love the fact you stop and explain why you did certain things and what your thinking was. Now I have two reasons to watch your content, it's the most entertaining and I can learn something!

[@livinghumbly3889]

I’m running Lickitung Lead, Ape Safe Switch and Some type of electric or ice type.

[@maganhassan2627]

Ouch people taking your team already? 😂

[@choccymilk7691]

Zyonik please help how do I forget frustration on my shadow pokemon?

[@ViniciusPereira-kl2bv]

Annihilape lead, shadow dragonair and licktung is doing wonders for me

[@josephmena1315]

Was thinking of a annihilate, bastiodon, charjabug team?

[@wiktoriarork6162]

What's your team which is not core broken by Lanturn? 🙂

[@franciscoreis3717]

14:44 not only does aerial ace do less dmg than frenzy in that situation but it is also less efficient

[@tristan-valiant-thor]

I appreciate the pausing and breakdown 👌

[@corey7975]

22:45 whiscash lookin a bit different these days

[@BarryBaxterEnglish]

Definitely love the pauses :)

[@aximat]

I recently started running skarmory (lead), annihilape (with ice punch and shadow ball), clodsire (stone edge and earthquake). I grabbed it off the top teams list in pvpoke and so far this team has been my best for great league this season.

[@kingfina208]

Same team with sludge bomb on clod cause I hate azumarill lmao struggles w dragons but finding great success

[@aximat]

@@kingfina208 I totally feel you on that lol. Imma try that tomorrow for sure.

[@im_finalized]

Daym, so your old team beats your new team?

[@maganhassan2627]

Yeah...I got 1487CP annalhape with 15-14-14 😂 I like a better one but not sure if I should keep the one I have. I'm surprised at your ananhape's ivs 😅

[@whoispaaat9136]

I play Annihilape in follow ABB team: Cresselia - Poliwrath - Annihilape (with Night Slash) Works pretty well for me especially with Cresselia as a Starter facing a lot of wishcash and azumarills Give it a Try!:D

[@SuperheroDeuce]

I've been running Annihilape lead (ice punch), Clodsire (sludge bomb/earthquake), and Lanturn. Ideally, I'd probably run a Dewgong over one of the others in the back but I don't have a good Dewgong. My original roster has some obvious weaknesses but when the opponent isn't ready, it cooks

[@puddingmaster444]

9:57 I think your only saving grace would have been doing 4 counters instead of 1 against talonflame, and praying 1 incinerate plus 2 deoxys counters wouldn’t kill. Unfortunate game!

[@dominicjordan3467]

The ape is so much better with night slash

[@dominicjordan3467]

Did I hear you say you live in the UK while i was watching Liverpool? If so where abouts are you and how do you find the regional dialect? I'm a Yorkshire man myself

[@deathdealer2573]

Great video Z funny enough I was running Dewgong, Deff Deoxy and annihilape with night slash. Safe swap is interchangeable depending on lead.. I climbed 300 elo with it u can hit 16 outa 18 types with super effective but ur weak too ghost

[@Pastalavista38]

My fave team I've been running lately is Annihilape/Mandibuzz/Toxapex. It gives me Borderlands/Mad Max vibes. I run mostly positive if I don't see double fairy or electric

[@NoobDragonl]

In which elo this team will work ??

[@kyledillard]

The first great league Annihilape team I used was Annihilape, Lanturn, and Seaking.

[@lukebf6254]

My primape with the best IV for PvP was barely over leveled for the Great League 🙃 so have it for Ultra but still haven’t found another for the Great League yet

[@jlchope8782]

Ran the Annihilape/Dewgong core to a 69 wins 31 losses Record. Extremely strong and fun. Honestly the team that got me back to battling frequently again

[@ΓερασιμοςΜιχαλας]

bro these pauses are just so good and educational.I just feel like i now understand more what goes through a high ranked trainer like you.(i am high ace btw 😂)

[@craighyde7301]

First

[@arnontzori]

Ice punch instead of night slash, clodsire instead of skarmory. I've been using that with good results

[@michaelmercado4784]

Get a new mic also

[@institutionalizedmark]

im always excited to try out your teams for atleast one set but everytime there is dewgong im done for. probably the only pokemon i still dont have for the great league lol

[@ryanhodge8688]

Ape, Dewgong and Lanturn has been my go to team and I’ve faired pretty well with it so far.

[@lemurproductions1294]

Pauses are the best

[@andrewrichter2231]

Bastiodon, Annilape, Shadow Vic is an Annilape team that works great too!

[@Razagor]

The amount of mudboiz and laturns in the lead, I have almost exclusively used Serperior lanturn core, safe swap I have switched between toxapex, jellisent, dewgong, poliwrath... got to veteran a few weeks back with it. Second season ever playing pvp and second time vet ^^ last season got it in catch cup so it felt a bit cheating for some reason

[@randyswrestlingsite]

I loved catch cup (we are probably two of the few that do). I have made bank with Catch Cup last couple of seasons.

[@Manuel0673]

Could I swap Dewgong for a Lapras?

[@adrianmacklin418]

Yeah

[@trex366t]

Annihlape, Basti and Dewgong has been tearing it up for me

[@elemenah5998]

2:34 love this call by the opponent, not worth the shield with the annihilape waiting in the wings for the farm down too!

[@dominicjordan3467]

Running this team now. Not dropped a game yet. 12-0 at moment.

[@ZyoniK]

🔥

[@dominicjordan3467]

I was running shadow Venusaur , Umbreon and Whiscash but kept getting bad leads on Venus and couldn't flip

[@dominicjordan3467]

Finished the day 13-2 with this team, had 2 sets with another team, ended up getting ruined by a lantern running thunder

[@XSETMando]

Shadow Zapdos could be a threat

[@LookOutForMe]

Why are you not using a lanturn instead of a dewgong? Is dewdong a better choice here?

[@dxrkicey62]

Yes, it lures out the electric and fighting types so skarm has potential in the back

[@AcidArchers]

Homies catch into the Charja that last battle was crazyyy

[@Shiro-5505]

300+ elo with Swampert (lead) Chargabug Dewgonh Very useful team for me

[@charlottesphie7037]

Skarmory is a goat. All time meta

[@RaghavKumar-sn3cr]

19:54 opponent must be saying save your two shields for the next season😂

[@Brazbox]

The pauses is good for beginners, but bad for advanced players

[@randyswrestlingsite]

I'm a fairly advanced player and I like it.

[@Brazbox]

@@randyswrestlingsite cool

[@Brazbox]

@@randyswrestlingsite I don’t like because i usually know what to do and what he is going to say, do i just want to watch the video with the commentary and to see what he did, but maybe it’s just me, idk

[@adrianmacklin418]

Dont like the pausing. I watched your videos because you were one of the only that just played and didnt try to be a teacher constantly and saying "good timing" like your trying to hit a quota.

[@littlechris8182]

Dude no stop pausing it so you can explain things and be helpful. None of us are here to learn or get better lol

[@Xizura]

I literally am lol

[@LegionOfPookas]

You're joking, right?
