[He's right about changing up his team but... it's the same problem as in Duel Monsters. Atem, Kaiba, Joey, even Ryou are all better players than him. He's been the slowest (discounting Atem) out of them to get the hang of pokémon battles and even then... Marik's confidence isn't great. He believes in his team, absolutely. Himself, not so much.]
Normally Chenzira wouldn't have had a problem with it. He might be unevolved but he's max level and has plenty of battle experience. I don't know why that particular Runerigus was so resilient...
[Marik clicks his tongue and looks away again.]
... And I wouldn't be where I am today if it hadn't been for Kaiba. I... can't bring myself to betray him. He's all I had here for the longest time.
As for Joey. Joey's... He's bigger. Older. He'd forgo the pokémon fight and kick my ass himself if I did anything foolish. He's made that very clear without even saying anything.
