One additional bennefit that you didn't mention with murkrow is that it can't get taunted by Torn. Its definietly still worse than Torn but it does have a nieche between being a dark type and having haze
I love how most of the metagame’s been turned on it’s head from last Reg, mostly because of the introduction of the goofy child with masks and a spiked bat
"Fill out your apology form, before you leave" "It washes the dishes, it drives the kids to school, I'm going to marry Bryan Hands one day" "You need fake out, you need to make sure the PH is 7.3" I love your choice of words. xD
It's so fun watching Marcos ranking these based on the first Reg E regional and watching many C tier Pokemon doing well in Sacramento (feat. Azumarill and Tyranitar). Can't wait to see these pick up in usage
Arbok is S tier in my heart. Can break screens, can coil, can self sustain with leech life, can gunk shot, can poison jab, can scale shot, can intimidate, can dragon tail, can glare ground types, it does everything and has just enough stats to be either offensive or defensive and no more. It needs a lot of help to run a full offense set but it’s shockingly strong as a bulky offense mon with Tera psychic psychic fangs, leech life, glare, and either a poison stab or dragon tail. Intimidate ofc.
As the self-proclaimed #1 Illumise and Volbeat enthusiast, you forget one thing. Volbeat has taunt, while Illumise doesn’t get it. And, more importantly, the best strategy ever invented, tail glow + baton pass
actually there’s two advantages to running Dusknoir over Dusclops - you can do literally any amount of damage and not be as significant Taunt bait - style points (objectively cooler Mon)
really interesting video to watch with Sacramento regionals going on right now. Tournaments this Reg are really fun to watch, we saw a psychic tera terablast Ttar to deal with Iron Hands, Kyle Livinghouse paired ability shield Lando with Weezing... Wild stuff
@@Bruce_P-Z From abusing it fully. Psychic Terrain still turns Expanding Force into the 120 BP spread move, but because of Levitate they don't get the additional 1.3x multiplier to their Psychic-type attacks. At least, that's my understanding.
No it actually stays a single target move, I found this out the hard way when trying to use it in a draft league expecting the regular expanding force 😭
Oberlin is insane, and I'm so scared that a glitch will cause her to be removed from my box. I lost Walking Wake this way and I'm so paranoid that the same thing will happen to my Ponyo.
Was it like a status move? Regardless, that is really good. Don't even get me started on how broken that would make landorus incarnate hell It might be good in the ubers tier instead of just present.
Ogerpon next question I’m generally happy with what we got in part 1 and the home transfer also nice but ogerpon just thwomps everything who was the guy who balanced it cause that dev either doesn’t play competitive or just wants to see it burn. Like 20% dmg boost, terra fire for stab, mold breaker on fire mask so no flash fire(depending on when you terra) a 100 base power 100 accuracy move no drawbacks, and a free stat boost on terra or switch in if terra active Also Arbok and Aridos should’ve gotten a new form or an evolution theyre neat guys but very lacking, that and crawduant it has the possibility for a new form cause I think it’s hoenn dex mentions corphish came to hoenn on ships kinda like zigzagoon so we could see a different version.
Question! How does the Ability Shield works with Neutralizing Gas? I know that Ability Shield cancels Mold Breaker and allow Heatran to counter Pre-Tera Ogerpon-Fire, but does it shield you from Weezing?
Good stat distribution, offensive and support movepool, and typing for both offense and defense. Steel/dragon, steel/rock, ground/rock are the only type combos that resist its STABs and heat wave covers the first two for neutral.
Nah nah nah Ape COOKS! Beats flutter- (most of the time) beats all the ruinous mons, loves opposing intimidate, bring Ogerwater in the back to eat the inevitable surging strikes that would take it out- chefs kiss
Unironically think munkidori is good. Surpisingly bulky, a great assault vest user, access to fake out u-turn (which is great with toxic chain) and deals a lot of damage with sludge wave (excluding tera poison). Also counters other poison types
ive been using kanto moltres recently as an annoyance to physical mons with flame body and wisp along with being a tailwind setter thats naturally strong with its spatk stat, maybe it is cooking but im enjoying the team i put it on with empoleon and pledge move shenanigans and i just managed to get it to master ball tier after a hiatus from ingame laddering today.
Definitely agree with your opinion on galarian articuno I activated competitive twice on opposing articuno and ignored it the entire match,it still couldn't punish me for my plays Its lackluster overage didn't help either
"It should at least be able to take a Flutter Mane Moonblast." "It's a physical format, Eerie Impulse isn't gonna do much." Ah yes. The floor here is made out of wall. Anyway can we start a petition to give Thunderus Tailwind? It would be alot better with it.
I made a fun gimmicky team with Flamigo. It's enough to take people by surprise. It's also got MausApe in the team so people prep for that thinking that's my strat, but that's only one mode for the team.
I used to run a ters fairy azumarill with huge power, nevey melt ice, belly drum, ice spinner, play rough, and liquidation, and the amount of times ive been able to set t room and sweep is crazy
I think Weezing's neutralizing gas gets so less credit that it deserves It disables Unseen Fist so you can protect againts Urshifu. Specially useful as Weezing can use Will o Wisp on it ar attack with Strange steam (which does around 50-75% on Urshifu) It didables Prankster so sometimes you can KO a Prankster Pokémon before they act It disables all priority blockers like Farigiraf and Indeedee Torkoal doesn"t get the drought so it hits less hard and Lili+Coal is useless, A-Ninetales doesn't get the snow so it can't put the aurora veil nor gets the deffense boost, disables grassy terrain which also disables grassy surge... it just stops a lot of strategies
"AV tera-fire Iron hands is the only set you should be running" How about No ? AV is the "no-brainer" set that can fit on every team, sure. But in some circumstances, you might actually want other sets. In TR teams, booster energy can make a lot of sense. Also, sword dance shouldn't be underestimated, it can punish teams playing too defensively. Don't sleep on other sets. (And, yeah, I'm too traumatized by Spore to consider tera-grass a bad option. If you're not a grass type to begin with nor have an ability to protect you from Spore ; then tera-grass is a valid option XD)
A calm & most obvious way to cope with early gen filler mons like Illumise is that they should & may get new evolutions to save them eventually once it crosses GF's mind that they're bit pointless & don't serve much in battle.

Weird move putting Arbok in S Tier
Little known fact: Arbok spelled backwards is S Tier
@@randomatorPHDarbok spelt backwards is Funny ourple snake
Now what exactly do you mean by weird? Arbok is the goat.
If Arbok had a little more speed and attack (10+ on both) It’d be valuable. 😎

My hot take is that Volcarona is at the top of B or bottom of A, i have nothing to backup or validate my claims I just think it's neat
40:34 "Iron Hands best pokemon in the game."
lol I was the Annihilape comment and I stand by that. Stacking signature move > poison jab
I believe the Lake Trio also gets Expanding Force, though Levitate does indeed prevent them from benefitting as much.
Wait, the get expanding force but their only ability prevents them form actually abusing it? XD
@@Bruce_P-Z From abusing it fully. Psychic Terrain still turns Expanding Force into the 120 BP spread move, but because of Levitate they don't get the additional 1.3x multiplier to their Psychic-type attacks.

If only Azelf had psychic surge instead.

Did you get your walking wake from pkhex? Because that might be why it disappeared
No, I caught it in the raid.
Once all the restricted legends come back thjs might be one of the most fun metas ever
I would not recommend cooking with about half the stuff you put in the C-tier
I wish Articuno had Snow Warning
Snow warning articuno, drizzle zapdos and drought moltres
I wish articuno had truant
I wish articuno had dragon ascent
@@sharanmanivannan6677Sandstream Aerodactyl. It’s close enough to a bird right?
i had a weird dream that the genies had another signature move that gave them +1 sp.atk and +1 speed and it was called "Cumulonimble"

Question! How does the Ability Shield works with Neutralizing Gas? I know that Ability Shield cancels Mold Breaker and allow Heatran to counter Pre-Tera Ogerpon-Fire, but does it shield you from Weezing?
I'm assuming because it's an item
Yes it makes the holder unaffected by neutralizing gas
The weezing part aged like fine wine. Wolfey won a whole tornament with weezing neutralizing gas
Somehow, Zapdos is still pretty solid.
Truly, one of the most consistent Pokemon of all time.
Good stat distribution, offensive and support movepool, and typing for both offense and defense. Steel/dragon, steel/rock, ground/rock are the only type combos that resist its STABs and heat wave covers the first two for neutral.
It also just got Weather Ball back for rain teams
It's cool how the snow variants are rank higher than their original forms
Regi also benefited from max moves boosting your own stats so you weren't worthless when the weezi g went down
Nah nah nah Ape COOKS! Beats flutter- (most of the time) beats all the ruinous mons, loves opposing intimidate, bring Ogerwater in the back to eat the inevitable surging strikes that would take it out- chefs kiss
RAMPARDOS WILL BE META JUST YOU WAIT
I will sell you my soul if you put him in c tier
The truck room torpedoe
Imagine if Zapdos got lightning rod
Unironically think munkidori is good. Surpisingly bulky, a great assault vest user, access to fake out u-turn (which is great with toxic chain) and deals a lot of damage with sludge wave (excluding tera poison). Also counters other poison types
Sucks that Regieleki is pretty much non-existence nowadays. Granted that's more for me. Pretty sure everyone else is glad no one uses Regieleki.

Definitely agree with your opinion on galarian articuno

I think stanlers okay, you can run a evoilite set, plus it can also be used as a trickroom set with imitimadate.
Found your channel recently after taking a break from scarlet and violet competitive. Super fun and entertaining vids man, a sub for sure
Can you use charjabug bc he’s super good rn (not really but he’s cool)
Yall gol d roger just laugheddddd when he saw the truth……,.., COME ON
Take a shot every time Flutter Mane is said in this video
"It should at least be able to take a Flutter Mane Moonblast."
"It's a physical format, Eerie Impulse isn't gonna do much."
Ah yes. The floor here is made out of wall.

"ball moves" is a hilarious term that i didn't think i'd hear today
Coffing makes it to we're we have a fast spore pokemon as in tenicrules convergent form
Glimmora is definitely B tier. That and Rillaboom basically single handedly got me to master ball this month.
I'd put Heatran, Rilla and Chi yu on S tier, those 3 are honestly more scary rn than Urshifu
I agree except for chy yu, he is scary but i dont see him very often
@@felipefroehnerteixeira4777 Idk, I've been seeing it a lot and it causes problems with choice specs or sash
I think Weezing's neutralizing gas gets so less credit that it deserves
It disables Unseen Fist so you can protect againts Urshifu. Specially useful as Weezing can use Will o Wisp on it ar attack with Strange steam (which does around 50-75% on Urshifu)
It didables Prankster so sometimes you can KO a Prankster Pokémon before they act
It disables all priority blockers like Farigiraf and Indeedee
Torkoal doesn"t get the drought so it hits less hard and Lili+Coal is useless, A-Ninetales doesn't get the snow so it can't put the aurora veil nor gets the deffense boost, disables grassy terrain which also disables grassy surge... it just stops a lot of strategies
Can we all just start calling the Ogerpon forms Firepon, Waterpon and Rockpon?
Does that make the one without a mask
Nopon?
You missed a Pokemon i was cooking with Cryagonal.
I've been having great success with defensive Empoleon with tera ground and shuca berry. It absolutely shits on Lando and many other physical mons.

BRO why is weezing toadscruel not going nuts rn? Speedy spore would go so hard
Munkidori might be dead in D tier but fake out + fling kings rock/razor claw is stupidly hilarious. Truly hijinks fit for a monke.
Does Raichu-alola work with Miraidon and its electric terrain? I’m new to the competitive scene so I’m not sure of all the meta strategies.
I believe miraidon isn't legal in reg e
Alolan ninetales a tier?

Volbeat also gets Taunt, something Illumise doesn’t get
I think with sinsitcha being a pokemon. G-Moltres is going to start going nuts
does this guy know volbeat has tail glow baton pass prankster?
Yes, but taking 2 turns to set up a mon at the cost of having to run volbeat isn't worth it and the main reason it's not seen.
What about eternatus
It's like, illegal.
Hey What about Battery Charjabug with Pinchurchin
Moxie you can’t put Wo-Chien on this list. He isn’t part of the dlc
Sad that Spectrier is no longer an Incineroar...

You're sleeping on slacking. Toxic orb facade slacking can OHKO so many mons
Arbok can be a threat if used correctly, seeing him in D is appalling 😢
Can someone explain regieleki’s downfall to me? I can’t believe how centralizing it was in gen 8 and now it’s just C tier
Because it kinda needs tera so it doesn't get wall and every meta mon destroy it flutter mane,iron hands,Rillaboom,Landorus,
Transistor nerf, bundle does its job but better in most cases, dynamax made it even more broken in gen 8
Aw yeah, watching the video again for the upcoming the Moxie Boost!
