Hey np. I think it's good to give constructive feedback but also be motivating at the same time. I also understand the desire to want to try breaking the mold with non typical sets. It is good to understand the meta, but it's important to have fun as well. As your rating increases you'll find yourself maybe having a harder time with "fun" sets but it isn't impossible. I strongly believe it just comes down to understanding how your team functions and what they can do. As long as you aren't making super noob mistakes over and over again you should see yourself improve and slowly climb the ladder.
I would also suggest continuously looking at pokemon global link to see what your main threats are. Kang, Lando, and Sylveon have been the Big 3 for awhile (with Talonflame also not seeming to go away) but you do see some fluctuations with like 9-12 in those top slots. You just always want to be prepared and adaptable to what's going on. But you seem eager to learn and open to other ideas so I am sure you will be fine.
Out of curiosity do you like Lopunny? I see it's your profile pic so why not consider building a team around that mega? Medicham is good and definitely underrated but if one of your goals is a cute team, I think Lopunny fits you more. :P
