This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Alistar.

Is Zyra better when played alongside Alistar?

This demonstrates that there is a very bad bond between Zyra and Alistar that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.
Alistar has a lower difficulty than Zyra. That means Zyra players don't need to be careful when arranging Alistar allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to do well with you.
When playing together, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Together, these two can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.
Although, by pairing Zyra and Alistar together, you will not be granting your side very much sustained damage output. Plan to include other champs on your team that offsets this disparity in this pairing's kit.
