11:01 People use rock tomb to lower the speed of Glastrier without lowering the speed of other pokemon like bulldoze does so glastier can underspeed pokemon like amoonguss and torkoal in trick room. Plus bulldoze can sometimes accidentally activate the weakness policy of an opposing glastier or maybe even metagross.
I caught Glastrier and saved straight after, because I was relieved I got it after trying for so long and I didn't want to accidentaly revoke my progress. I then check and discover that it has perfect speed IV's. Pls add 0 IV bottle cap Mr. Pikachu :(
The ice horse is super strong. Even out of trick room is scary because of its bulk making it able to survive, hitting you back with a weakness policy. The fact that is an ice type and has 4 common weaknesses make it the perfect weakness policy user. Also, rock tomb + lash out can do insane damage to pokemon like dusclops or cresselia. And, it allows you to underspeed amoongus.
That’s the reasons I always run a haze user in mas physical defense Milotic to prevent things from getting out of hand but I’ve lost to Glastriers because it’s so hard to kill
I have a little suggestion for Wolfey. It uses regigagigagigas. Regigagigagigas+Latios is a pair I've found to be very threatening. The evs are simple. Max speed max attack jolly regigagigagigas, max speed max hp latios. The regigagigagigas would run body slam, drain punch, darkest lariat, and protect with a life orb. The latios would run tailwind, heal pulse, psychic, and simple beam with a colbur/roseli berry/leftovers. If you simple beam the regigagigagigas, it loses slow start, and if you max knuckle with regigagigagigas, it'll get +2 attack, putting it at 400+ attack. Normal+Fighting+Dark is absolutely amazing coverage, and so regigagigagigas can tear through teams with support from latios. Tailwind for speed control, heal pulse for longevity, simple beam for ability control, and psychic as a damaging move & sash breaking. I've been using this on showdown, and it's sweeped through entire teams with little to no trouble. Sorry for the long comment, I just want to make sure I get as much information across as possible. If you're reading this, hope you enjoy the rest of your day!
I managed to get a 0 speed IV Glastrier on my third reset, I was so darn lucky. Important note - You have to defuse them to see Glastrier's IVs and nature, they are not the same as Calyrex's.
Hey Wolfe, content is great, but one thing I will point out: you keep calling the horse's abilities "beast boost but only for attack/sp. attack," but did you forget about moxie, because their abilities are closer to moxie than beast boost.
Idk if you'd wanna do a video on it, or if you already have, but I think it'd be pretty fun to do Araquanid Entrainment with Water Bubble onto Kyogre. STUPID strong, especially if you wanna use a Weakness Policy.
It looks like the fuckin uh horse from 90s moomin that tootikky makes for the winter queen that she brings to life to chase little my on the ice with before attempting to take her life.
Day 1 on Showdown, I started building with this mon using Icicle Crash, High Horsepower, Smart Strike, Protect with Expert Belt on a TR Team, then I lost one match and switched to Weakness Policy, and even without self-activation it was so strong, that it felt like I was cheating. I'm kinda glad that a set I used on day 1 is now very popular.
Day 144 of asking for "Why Gastly is a threat" (or an equivalent under a different title if preferred), because it has the 169th best special attack of all pokemon, all forms, according to Serebii.

Gastly stronk. I have deduced using my gigantamax brain that Wolfey (hi) will legally be required to make this video when I hit day 151
Ok you have to be more accurate because i don't understand what you are aming at here.. Why would you speed swap, when you can let your speed stat drop by either your own moves of may it be the foe's attack.. the only way this speed swap thing will work, is if the foe your facing is indeed slower then your pokémon. Would you take that guess ? 9/10 pokémons are faster then glastrier, so this strategy wouldn't make no sense.. Correct me if i'm wrong
@@mrnelis8037 The Speed Swap is to make Glastrier faster. Ribombee (Base 125 Speed) can Speed Swap with Glastrier in order to have it outspeed most Pokemon.
There's no point in EVing for anything specific because the few things i found that could one shot it are risky and require all-out investment in them, like power herb meteor beam nihilego. If it dynamaxes, there's nothing that will oneshot it except +2 tyranitar max rockfall
A +2 252 SpA (or a minimum 28 SpA if modest) Chandelure Max Flare OHKO Dynamax Glastrier (252 HP and 4 SpD) and can OHKO most Trick Room setters (both Cresselia and Dusclops are not safe from it) or at least deny Trick Room with the threat of imprisont on the first turn, but it's unlikely you going to incounter a Weakness Policy Chandelure at the beginning of the season.
Ghost horse is the best metagross partner. Bulldoze for self proc weakness policy and slows opponent down in one go. Then spams snarl. Has accent to taunt and will o. It’s surprisingly a very good supporter. Immune to fake out too. Don’t regret your decision of choosing ghost horse. You can build a ridiculous metagross + dark urshifu team.
I didn’t know what the ice type horse looked like so I chose it and was disappointed with the look but now I’m glad to have picked the more competitively viable
Doubles Meta is different from Singles, with some overlap, so it’s nice to see the two mons separate for different play (unlike certain legends that compete in the same Meta and end up being one over the other). :)
