AWESOME VIDEO BRO.
Duck, duck… bridge?
7:17 Wtf that Elecro Shot DAMAGE! Holy! Very cool team!
Whats the spread on arch? Like max speed and sp.atk?
EV spreads for all pokemon are in pokepaste in the description, the Arch is Modest 252/252 SpA Speed
Does speed tiers matter when using upper hand? I see it fail befre using priority
Upper Hand is +3 Priority, so same priority bracket as Fake Out. The faster Pokemon between Upper Hand and Fake Out will move first, meaning a slow Upper Hand user could not block a faster Fake Out.
Hisuian Decidueye with scrappy matches up well against Donsdozo, Iniceroar, Goldango and Rillaboom. And it has tailwind and its signature move is really good.
Dozo is a big one, you can even run Haze if you don't want to try to crit Leaf Blades. Lots of folks use Flamigo as a faster Scrappy user to outspeed and OHKO Gholdengo, Incin, and Rillaboom as an alternative to Decidueye
@@TalonVGC ok
38:20 I'm guessing here you shoulda used Upper Hand, correct? I'm tryna learn how and when to use this move correctly. Cuz if you land it, you get a nice lead. Albeit if you fail it, it can cost you the game.
If I know they have Ice Shard, yeah I should use Upper Hand to stop it and get enough damage for Hurricane to KO. However, if they go for Blizzard in combination with Rage Fist, they'll take 2 KOs if they hit, so I felt CC was safer.
So, it's like a double edge sword.
I jus watched his vid. Lol Glad you got battles wit it, cuz I wanted to see Upper Hand in action.
I’m fascinated by Upper Hand in Reg H.
definitely an interesting TM
where is the pokepast bro
Paywalled
Your analysis is top notch
Wolfe a bozo so it's all good
This game 3 is insane
Crazy lucky game 3 ending lol
More throat chop food yummy!!!
Thanks for the team rec!
Il pardo ha fatto sicuramente di peggio hahaha
Douglas Meadow
While copying the paste from the link I noticed the flamigo is docile nature. Was that a mistake?
Yep should be adamant
Mmm I like upper hand over Brave Birb. Sure you lose coverage but shutting down priority is really useful.
Ive been using a similar team on the in game ladder to great success. Tera normal guts facade does insane damage
Some high bo3 ladder content would be cool or a bo3 against other top players. Reviews & analysis are helpful
I think I'll keep using my off meta team to throw people off.
I remember seeing the tournament after the stream ended and the dondoso and tasiguri team in top 8 gave the winner of this tournament the hardest time because his archaladon was at 3 hp and barely survived it was a one v one situation vs king gambit.
I LOVE TALON VGC
Flamigo
Davis Edward Jackson Brian Clark Matthew
Two Pokémon I feel are underrated are Blaziken and Infernape. The are lacking in inmediate power but Fire+Fighting threatens Archaludon, Gholdengo, Incineroar, Rillaboom and many more. Both are fast by the meta's standarts (Blaziken needs a turn to boost but Protects helps with it) and can be either physical or special (the former has stronger moves but Special deals with Intimidate and Stamina)
A Blaziken made Day 2 at Baltimore, you could Protect the first turn to get a Speed Boost, U-Turn out with your Rillaboom into Dragapult, then use Coaching to boost up a Choice Banded Dragapult.
Correct title=10 Pokemon that don’t even make top 8
Technician Maushold won the event, Flamigo 2x in T8, Vivillon in T8, bulky AV Tar in T8. Sneasler Buzz Salamence 10th place, the rest of the mons on the list outside of Ceruledge either cut or were a win away.
Annihilape whimsicott/mausape not doing well is surprising. Terra ghost garganacl has been destroying rain teams for me on showdown, wouldn't be surprised to see the big salt cube doing some damage to all these bulky water/steel types in reg H.
Alex Imbufe was kind of rolling the dice with that team. If he didn't run into a hard counter, he was tough to stop.
I literally called volbeat weeks ago
maushold took it, very amaazing
There were some crazy teams, damn, a lot of people being extremely creative, love to see it!
This tournament was willllllld. Loved seeing the volbeat and vivillon and so many other unique Pokémon. It’s such a shame that Reg G comes back in January…
Nah. Reg g is more competitive, double Uber is always the best meta
@@Callugaris Reg g is single restricted
@@alexanderbatterbee8369 yes, i mean double Uber is the best format in my opinion, better than reg g which is 1 Uber
@@Callugaris I personally disagree, but I respect your opinion.

Sick content
Volbeat was crazy
why doesnt brave bird work on psychic terrain
@@KeatonBaker-is5tm if Talonflame is at max HP, its Gale Wings ability makes all Flying type moves have priority +1, including Brave Bird, so it will fail when targeting opposing Pokemon in Psychic Terrain that are grounded.
@@TalonVGC omg thank you. I literally spent 10 min trying to figure that out. Of course!
I’m sorry for your loss
yesterday on a local, I faced an unburden tera ghost tera blast sneasler paired with an imprison/follow me InDeeDee and it absolutely shut me down
_Toed + Gweezing is running rampant online.💀_
Oh did I mention that here? Happy accident if so but yeah Justin or Wolfe was terrorizing ladder with that team
Toedscruel + weezing is the shit 😎
Better late than never! Meant to upload this Friday morning before the Regional, but had some audio issues and wasn't back home until Saturday night to repair. Got somethings right, a few unsurprisingly came out of nowhere to do amazingly (looking at you, Wolfe with the crazy Weezing / Toedscruel team...)
Thank you for this list. As a more casual player this saves me so much time. I really appreciate your help
You’re making content now!? Nice meeting you at locals
I'm sorry for your loss, Talon. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and featuring so many good teams. You've helped me reach masterball and beyond!
Where do you find ladder ratings on showdown? I don’t see reg H ladders anywhere
You go to Ladders, then scroll to Regulation H (Bo3)
@@TalonVGC figured it out, thanks so much and love your content
I’m sorry for your loss.
And btw sorry about the funeral that came up. Losing a loved one is always tough.
