Impossible to climb solo?

Dreadnaw is arguably the most important objective in the game. Try to secure it twice a game on that level as most people don't contest it in lower leagues and you'll eventually climbt higher and higher.

I personally hit Master playing alone Battle Pass only, Lucario jungle main but if someone else wanted jungle I’d lane with him. The same things happen in higher ranks too unfortunately, the game may feel coin flippy but you do have more control then you think. Learning how to play with a lead in this game is very important & not something someone can teach you through a Reddit comment.

Do your best! If it's super frustrating, you might consider a different role. You have lots of opportunities to experiment. Maybe you'll do better with a different character. We've got 7 free characters that are all fun to play so give'm all a shot.
For example, if Zapdos is what worries you the most, try out Slowbro. You can lock down the enemy's jungler or carry. Your Surf+ knocks up 3 times, wide enough for the corridor. Now it doesn't matter if your team's attacking Zapdos because you're in the way.
Ninetails can do something similar as well. Dazzling Gleam, Aurora and you'll be AOE locking the enemies down.
As a Jungler you don't have as much control over a fight, and if it's control that bothers you, then pick a control-style PokeMon.
If you insist on Jungling, be sure to pick up the Ludicolo Blue buff before Zapdos spawns. Take your Fluffy tail as well. Blue buff gives you bonus damage to weak neutral monsters, and Fluffy Tails gives you bonus damage as well. Go for that last hit, survive/hide till you can last hit, and time it well. Good luck!

I've been climbing with Slowbro/Snorlax and a bit of Talonflame, and I can agree with the other comment about control-based characters. While I die inside every time my team starts Zapdos too early (which is most of the time), I as a CC machine can at least/prevent my opponents from stealing Zapdos or soften them up for the carries to focus down.
That someone is scouting around Zapdos to make sure we all don't get it stolen from us has saved me several games in climbing so far. Granted, I've played less than 20 games in Ranked on my main, but I'm already in Expert, so apparently it's possible to climb solo queue.
If I was a jungle main, I'd be more frustrated that my teammates don't initiate fights/CC the enemy for me before I dive in to kill stuff. You can only carry so much when you're squishy af

Its the same in ultra league, I heard its better in masters i have my hopes up for that

Solo climbing is frustrating. I'm planning to wait till they add a solo queue if they do before I continue properly climbing

I made it to Master exclusively soloQ so its not impossible.
2 small advices.
Drednaw is very important, even though this makes botlane more important i take toplane because i am smart enough to come botlane when he Spawns and teammates usually are not. (even while i spam-ping) Of course in most cases only 1 of 2 Toplaner should go Bot.
You don't want to Ult between the 2:50 and 2:00 marker because you will need it for the upcoming teambattle in the final stretch. Even if it kills you or if it means a enemy will escape, Only do it if the situation really calls for it. And if you did try to get it ready ASAP by farming since it gives reduction to the cooldown.

If you main jungle and can’t climb, it’s your fault for not impacting the lanes enough. If you can’t carry, then just take a lane and let someone else carry. Jungle is high impact role. In your elo you should be able to do more.
You replied literally 5 sec after I posted. So unless you have super powers and can read extremely fast, you didn't take the time to read what I have written
Stop trolling
You are the only constant in your games. We all deal with the same mechanics and we are able to climb. Gl hf.
I agree on your points you mention before. I mained jungle cuz its a hard carry, last game we had zeraora, tanks etc. I chose ninetales. Suprisingly nobody gone jungle so i had to go eith ninetales.
I impact so much just by the level a head pressure you have.
Sadly people still trying to get the caps af even the first scores, ranking up earlier was easier because good players also played, now with my smurf i kind of ,,struggle'' because only the shit players or veterans that started late are in.
Still manage to escape veteran in a solo queue, if a jungler cant carry the games then its their fault. (Not litarly their fault but get level advantage and steamrole, game is terribly balanced, jungers to strong.)
Im also maining garchomp jungle lol
