QOTD: Considering the only viable steel fast move had been nerfed (Steel Wing), Steel type attacks need some buffs imo. I would introduce a new mid energy charge move as Smart Strike, and ideally it would be a good charge move- 45/80 E/D, so a drill run clone. I also wouldn’t mind a buff to existing steel moves too. Flash cannon remains quite a poor move, so ideally would like to see an increase in its damage as a veritable steel nuke (although Pokemon like Registeel possessing it makes me question that change). Mirror shot is cheeks though, and I see no reason not to make it at least a Dragon Claw clone 50D/35E, though I’d say 55D/35E is even more ambitious and plausible. Maybe shadow Magnezone would get out of hand if given the ladder changes, but I think Ferrothorn would dearly love the changes just as much. The move distribution is quite low as it is, so I don’t think it’d be too consequential to change imo. If metal claw isn’t the subject of a further buff (understandable if so), a new steel type fast move-Steel roller- could be a rollout clone id reckon. There’s more options tbh, but the type is lacking in viable options outside signature moves.
QOTD: well, the moves left in the MSG that can boost attack guaranteed is Order Up which is exclusive to Dondozo and Scale Shot, which raises Speed (so Attack in PoGo) but also drops defense. There's also Aqua Step, Esper Wing, and Aura Wheel but those are signature moves of Quaquaval, H. Braviary and Morpeko. Lastly, there's Electro Shot, Mystical Power, and Torch Song. Again, all signature moves. So Scale Shot seems most likely (I can see Quaquaval and Skeledirge getting Aqua Step/Torch Song for its eventual Community Day, like how Incineroar got Darkest Lariat)
QOTD: First, Id love to see togedemaru get trailblaze, one of my favorite mons to play and gives it some extra coverage it desperately needs. Dragon (if its only given to the weaker dragons to increase their play) or bug version might be cool to have
I've been running Shadow donphan since last season, but it's a BEAST this season. If charged tms hadn't become scarce for me, I'd probably change body slam to play rough for the Giratina matchup and because I realized you're WALLED by drifblim. Found that out when I ran into shadow drifblim on the lead.😅 I also ran my shadow girafarig, but double kick did better than confusion this season solely because you get to the trailblaze that much quicker..
I decided just for the fun of it to run this team. Not gonna lie, the first set was an 0-5. Not in ranks yet so it's fine. But as I did more sets, I started winning more and more. Last set was a 4-1. Really fun team. Definitely not Meta and not a climbing ELO team, but a lot of fun.
Not related to QOTD but you should try a triple cannon/artillery team with Blastoise, Dragapult, Magmortar or Armourage
When I read Artillery, i think of Octillery.
Didn't even think of him but yeah that works too!
@@amiryoussef4547Octillery would be much cooler to see than Blastoise as the team's water type 🐙
@@amiryoussef4547octillery is inspired from a tank so it would fit well
Alolan golem?
Dont be like that callum. Girafarig is the GOAT
truth
Dying to get a shadow one. Bring it back niantic!
21:51 psychic fangs aaactualy
I went back to the Rhyhorn team video just to leave a like
Full shadow team made me double check who uploaded this 😅 and I wish for a bug type buff! Bug type Trail blaze clone sounds interesting
The bug type needs a buff bad! Totally agree!

Would like metal sound as a thunder shock clone
@@williamfeng9808or a psywave clone
@@ProcInc can’t be a psywave clone because metal sound is 2 turns
@@williamfeng9808 yeah but turn counts have been changed before
@@ProcInc when?
You actually played exceptionally well with the rhyhorn line team considering how many things corebreak it. That was fun to watch
Wow that shadow Donphan with mud-slap was such a menace.

8:08 this is me Turtopus, GGs we battled yesterday xD :))
Maaaaaan those mud-slaps were slaaaaaaping in that last battle!
Beautiful theme, love the giraffe/elephant core! You can use this and swap out the amph for pyroar or solgaleo to make a safari theme!
It's probably not spicy enough for Callum but man I've been loving my shadow skuntank with crunch and trailblaze in UL. It's a beast!
No dissrespect Callum, ive loved gbl again this season, i only have limited time, i cant keep up with the new seasom yt hype!!! Legit cannot keep up!!
QOTD: new move: aqua step for quaquaval
QOTD: First, Id love to see togedemaru get trailblaze, one of my favorite mons to play and gives it some extra coverage it desperately needs. Dragon (if its only given to the weaker dragons to increase their play) or bug version might be cool to have
QOTD: Dark-type trailblazer sounds cool, and I would introduce Ice Ball, which will be an ice-type rollout.
I feel like non shadow ampharos is slightly better ... u end up boosting your attack anyway but the extra bulk is pretty nice

The rhyhorn video was my favorite video so far on this channel
qotd: swagger should be a bait move with a chance to 2x increase your attack, or at least make it the normal-type clone of trailblaze

QOTD: Scale Shot as a Dragon type Trailblaze clone.
Johto for the W
Qotd: I want electric web and get it's buff advantage. And yeah the rhyhorn fam video was the sh*t. Let's get those likes ppl
So many Donphan sweeps holy crap
Wow, you had my attwntion @2:50
QOTD both steel, steel trailblaze and steel beam (bravebird clone) would make it a decent offensive typing finally.
Qotd. I really like the ryhorn family vid. Trailblze clone would love water and then fire getting it. Would nerf charm but boost fairy moves
My amphros takes out giritina with 2 brutal swings I wondered why yours didn’t, does brutal swing do less damage this season
Brutal swing was changed (and I believe slightly buffed) this season. It does less damage, but costs less energy I think.
shadow girafarig gave me lots of fun in the great league.
Iwould like this video 500 times myself if I could
qotd: give water types a move that buffs their attack like flame charge
scythe themed team
QOTD: anytime bug needs to be buffed. And my referring to the bugs in the game this time 😁🤣🤣
Never gotten damage registration error myself, but occassionally my opponent does.
It's absolute BS that is part of the game, Niantic gotta step up
I also have a UL shadow girrafe and need team susgestions 😂 pretty please
Giraffarig beats swampert in the 1s going straight psychic fangs.
I'm too late 😂
I WANT FAMILY LINE TEAMS
Give trailblaze to Umbreon 😂
21:52
Respect the spice as always my guy 🫡 I would definitely like to see the scyther fam video🙌🏻
pls do a collab vid with homeslicehenry
500 likes!!
Callum I think it’s time to mix up the intro music it’s leading to all of the videos feeling like carbon copies especially at the beginning.
QOTD: probably a dark type trailblaze as meta dark types such as mandibuzz need more attack on their hands
Mandi absolutely does not need more attack lol
Gamestate is horribe. Ive actually lost count how many times ive lost a game due to a frame drop or just missing turns
Hey
