Are you positive the Database username is "mybb_zymichost_mybb"? Most shared hosting providers use the username of the webmaster as a prefix.
Example:
Domain: example.com
Username: exweb
The prefix for a database and a user might look like:
exweb_yourdbuser
exweb_yourdatabase

If you have cPanel with your host, then it will tell you what your database and database user will be when you create one.

Have a board URL and database error you can provide so support participants (staff and community alike) can see what's going on?
I used to use zymic on my old site. (Before getting paid hosting)

Anyways, it should be this:
Database Server Hostname: localhost
Database Username: Username here something like:  915441_mybb
Database Password: Pass here
Database Name: Database you created here.
