PLEASE Do Not Lane with a Jungler! (Pokemon UNITE)
[EDIT: This is a rant… I know I am preaching to the choir… I hope]
I have no idea what’s going on, but ever since the Zapados update I keep seeing Junglers call the LANES; even when the center is open! I can’t tell you how many times I have seen Greninja, Cinder, Deci, etc - and get this - EVEN GENGAR & GARDEVOIR call the lanes instead of the jungle. I’m flabbergasted. Why does this keep happening? I’m even encountering it in the higher levels of Masters (600+). Is Masters the new Vereran? 😭
RULE OF THUMB: with Speedsters/All-Rounders/Attackers, if the Pokémon has THREE evolution phases, call the center/mid/jungle. If somebody else has already called center ‼️DO NOT PICK A JUNGLER‼️ Why? Because it takes at least twice, maybe even 3x as long to fully evolve in lane as it would take in the jungle. It does not help my team in any way, shape, or form when I take 6 minutes to fully evolve. Also, because Junglers are usually crazy squishy, I end up continually feeding the opposition in lane until I hit my spike; which then creates a huge level gap that allows them to snowball right over my team.
The entire job of a Jungler is to level up in the jungle and then sneaky ninja move to the lane that needs help the most, and gank the opposition to help teammates safely score and/or secure the contested Poké. Then go back to jungle to get the second move and then join the team in the lanes, only going back to jungle to level up when teams are even and there are breaks (like after a Regileki offensive/defensive).
BE A TEAM PLAYER 💜

I always go top

Its is? I just go top for the first goal. I will try the middle next time i play

Yeah
First goal is nice but there's usually enemies there
If you get knocked out then it makes the trip useless
However, middle path is safe from enemies with more wild Pokémon, allowing you to build levels and Aeos Energy, getting you high leveled and ready for a high score

I guess I should add the caveat that I’m talking about my experience in Ranked.

With all of your Poké; even if they aren’t Junglers?
