The best team for Sylveon in the Ultra League:

• Greedent in the Lead
• Sylveon as the Safe Swap
• Electivire as the Closer

Quick Attack on Sylveon does better as the Fast Move more than Charm after it was nerfed some time back.

Electivire has Wild Charge, which is great against the fliers in this format of the GO Battle League. Wild Charge, in general, has nuking potential. Besides this, Electivire also has Ice Punches for the Giratinas in the open Ultra League.

Pokemon	Fast Move	Charged Moves
Greedent	Mud Shot	Body Slam, Crunch
Sylveon	Quick Attack	Psyshock*, Dazzling Gleam

The best team for Sylveon in the Master League:

• Mewtwo or Shadow Mewtwo in the Lead
• Garchomp as the Safe Swap
• Sylveon as the Closer

Mewtwo, as we all know, is one of the strongest legendary beasts in Pokemon GO. No matter what your enemy brings to the table, Mewtwo with double Legacy moves will always have a solid answer.

If you have Shadow Mewtwo on your team, your attacks would be even stronger. There is a reason why Shadow Mewtwo is in the top 10 best Pokemon in the Master League, but the normal variant is not.

Attacks of the creatures in this team:

Pokemon	Fast Move	Charged Moves
Mewtwo	Psycho Cut	Psystrike*, Shadow Ball*
Garchomp	Mud Shot	Outrage, Earth Power*
Sylveon	Quick Attack	Psyshock*, Dazzling Gleam

This team can help you deal with current meta threats like Swampert, Excadrill, Hero Forme Zacian, Lugia, Garchomp, Metagross, Origin Forme Giratina, Dialga, Zekrom, and Dragonite.
