Man's got a sponsor, so proud bro!!! I've been here since 3k, keep it up you're funny asf, also giving a face to the failure of a mon macargo (sorry lol)
Tauros is an artifact from an era where STAB was a privilege, not a right.
this is so fucking true
As it should have been
@@amadhollow635 Nah, I'd rather have at least one decent STAB move when I choose to use a Pokémon of a certain type in my playthrough.
@@amadhollow635clinically insane take, do you really want like 60% of all Pokemon to just not even have worth using moves
@@amadhollow635 might agree, it could help diversify movesets and make more interesting pokemon beyond whatever archetype.
But we're far past this point. Atleast we still have ADV.
Fun fact about the body slam paralysis that was found out in 2014. Let me repeat that a integral part of the gen one meta-game was discovered in 2014.
Yeah pretty crazy something thst impactful was found so late on!
RBY players one day were like "eh yo this chancy been gettin a bit lucking dodgin paralysis this game 👀"
Fun fact, stadium 2 explains that mechanic in detail but no one bothered to read the tutorial, so we took 20 years to implement something children had known for years.
@@gablink5190 Stadium 2 is an entirely different generation, why would they think a quirk of the Gen 2 version of Stadium (that is not reflected in GSC) would be a thing in Gen 1?
For that matter why would Stadium 2 explain something that it doesn't do, since that mechanic doesn't exist in the Johto games onward.
@@AztecCroc the game specificaly mentions that it is gen 1 exclusive and present in rgby, so yeah, they got you there.
Tauros rolled down the tiers faster than Sisyphis's boulder
Paldean Tauros was the boulder being pushed up the hill again..... And also the boulder going down again
Yup
@@lordgrub12345lmao true. people use it because it was one of the only decent intimidate mon available, once better options return it just fell again. And so the boulder rolls down hill.
One must imagine Tauros happy
Sisyphus
Fun fact: Until it got its new forms, Tauros was essentially only Gen 1 Pokemon to never get a prevolution, evolution, mega evolution, alternate form or dynamax form. Technically Ditto also counts and holds onto that title today, but it's a gimmick that literally transforms into other Pokemon so Tauros really holds the crown for being the most neglected Gen 1 'Mon, and the last one to get anything special for it.
wait what did golduck get?
Mew be like👀
@@CarmenLC I meant to clarify in the original comment that this only applied to single-stage, non-legendary Pokemon, so Golduck didn't count because it had an evolution
Venemoth line?
@@TheZestyCarits an evolution line doesn’t count
All I know about Tauros is that it compromised like 80% of Ash's original roster in the anime.
Tauros is just based
@@FartInhalerSlamPoetryOr, alternatively, "comprised". Took two words that work and fused them into one that doesn't.
Ash was trying start the Rumbling.
I can't get over how perfectly these videos match my sense of humor. Been trying to get everyone I think will appreciate true art to watch these videos just to motivate you to keep making them lol
Appreciate the kind words mate!
Sadaam in the 90s is the most unhinged but accurate analogy of all time, congratulations
Gen one hyper beam is so cool and I hate that they felt the need to “fix” it.
as normal when we try to tamper with perfection, we break it
They also ruined explosion, which i think was a healthy part of the gen 1-4 metagames
Especially gen 3 as it is meant for trading and ghost being ghost clowned on it as counterplay
I think it would need to be “fixed” as soon as choice band is introduced
@@sneakyfloatsnah
Tauros not having a grass fighting paldean form was disappointing
Atleast it's not a ghost fire type that's just a steak like paldean miltank
Thats just a goat
Tauros crashing my game every time I talk to its trainer was disappointing too
Honestly Paldean Tauros was so close to fixing him and making him actually OU viable again. The only problem is that they removed the 2 things that actually let Tauros have the smallest bit of a niche it did: Sheer Force and base 110 speed
Tauros actually did have pretty alright damage with sheer force, it just didn’t have a consistently good method of hitting ghost types and ground neutral/immune steel types. It’s speed tier was also genuinely good; even in gen 9 it’s pretty good since it can at worst speed tie with mons as fast as Iron Moth
But Paldean Tauros doesn’t get Sheer Force, it gets *Cud Chew*. And Paldean Tauros isn’t a speed demon, it’s only one of the many base 100 mons out there. It’s speed tier is practically worthless in OU, and it’s abilities give it nothing worthwhile. This is all the more sad because Fighting/Water and Fighting/Fire are actually both good STAB combos that would do well in OU if it had Sheer Force and a movepool to back it ip
Even if it did, would it really be preferred over the other options? Even Ursaluna and Roaring Moon dropped to UU at one point (Ursalunas still there). I think it's unrealistic to consider OU viability a sole metric for success, especially nowadays because power creep is so insane
"It's not one the Genwunners will tell you."
They'd...they'd be the most likely to tell you, though.
@@viewer6152 Okay but you need to make it make sense. Say like, modern players or something.
Had Hyper Beam (and Giga Impact later on) remained the same as in gen 1, I think Tauros could've maintained a decent foothold a while longer. Though seeing Paldean Tauros doing alright makes me smile.
imagine porygon z with gen 1 hyperbeam
@@michielwitteveen6676 Oh my.
They should try to bring back the gen 1 hyper beam mechanics. While yeah it would've been busted in older gens there's enough counters today.
@@michielwitteveen6676 i want that now.
@@videorelaxant2780if protect, miss or hitting someone immune made you have to recharge i would agree
Hey Joe, have you ever thought about doing an Egglocke challenge with your viewers' submitted pokemon? It would be quite funny and epic I think.
What's an "Eeg"?
could do one at some point!
@@magcarjoseph2nd If you do, then expect a lot of Splash, Truant, and Explosion/Self-Destruct/Memento.
Who is going to make the obligatory cursed vaporeon
@@dylangardinerthesmollestbo7902 Already working on it.
I’ve watched all your videos and they’ve never failed to put a smile on my face. Thank you, especially in the wake of my exams
glad I could help make you smile and good luck with your exams!
Your ms paint renditions never fail to put a smile on my face. Truly the "mona lisa"s and "starry night"s of ms paint art
Waiting for the opponent to select another Pokémon to send out after being knocked out by a recharge move SHOULD count as the recharge time. It makes sense that the Pokémon that used the move would have enough time for a brief rest during this period. At the same time, maybe have the recharge still happen if the opponent protects it to help balance this out. Just a quick idea on the last part, may make things worse idk
Tauros commited the cardinal sin of being born.
GF when their choices make Tauros a beast: *Punish him*
I hadn't heard of this channel until yesterday but upon seeing your Regigigas video and this one your humor is very quickly winning me over.
Got rlly ill recently and binged all of your content. Absolutely adore you man, keep up all the great work. It’s insane to see how far you’ve come, here’s to more growth!
7:53
8:29
yep those analogies made me laugh harder than they should ngl
Even the sponsors won’t let me escape science direct (I need to reference everything I need to reference everything)
13:19 "Nobody cared who I was until I learned to dance" is a really cool sentence.
I captured the tauros and Scyther for the extreme damage in Gen 1 but... I will never forget my 1st time beating the league with my 80+ lvl gyarados with all attack made for them. And just for the memes, all blue's party was darn freaking deleted by a barrage of hyperbeams. So freaking satisfactory and unforgettable.
1:26
Yep. Just ask Europa.
They should give Tauros an ability that let's it skip the recharge turn if a move knocks out the opponent, call it Momentum or something. Intimidate would still be the better option, but it'd be a better second ability than fucking Anger Point.
Fun fact tauros is great on lgpe uu :) because theres very few resists
Still very happy with its Paldean cousins that can swim and breathe fire, you know stuff normal bulls do
It’s better to have been OU and be demoted to NU than than never being viable at all.
truth
Is it, though...?
Like imagine just living with the fact you're not hot shit anymore.
@@_V.Va_ A fair point. One is never eager to bequeath one's place in the sun. However, everyone will pass their prime some day if they live long enough. Is it not better then to have a memories of those golden days, bittersweet though they may be? Once one is over the hump, a good story might be worth its proverbial weight in gold.
Great sponsor segment. Also, I love how you and Big Yellow have two completely different video styles, but it feels you are kindred spirit is
Fucking love your videos magcarjoe. Your comedic style always makes me smile
Thanks youtube for recommending me this channel🙏
I literally watch all of your nuzzlocks and I enjoyed watching them. My fav. was the bug type run in platinum (with kricket😂)
Dude I really like your humour you are very entertaining, keep that up. Hope you will get those subs and your channel will get those numbers🙏
Really made my day and I m looking forward for the next nuzzlocks
Persian was my gen 1 go-to 😅 I should have at least tried Taurus 😅
funny enough persian is like a diet tauros
Some people use both,to basically have 2 Tauros
Persian in ou is crazy 💀
A tragedy of Shakespearean proportions
Time for another video from one of my favorite PokéTubers
oh damn pokemon challenges uploaded today as well, sick!
Magcarjoe is the funniest and my favorite Magcargo. Makes me kinda want to use Magcargo more lol
I know I haven't played gen 1 since I was a kid but I know for a fact at some of the tournaments I played golem was used at times, typically to explode but still
I think False swipe gaming made a video about this, but basically the in the end the player base realized that having higher defenses with golem was not worth it because of it being mostly incapable of inflicting much damage outside of exploding, and suicide kinda defeats the purpose of being a wall, so most of the player base to this day mostly only uses Rydon
@@carlossandoval6858 tbh makes sense, i do know even back as a kid i sometimes would play around the explosion to handle golemn
Let's be real, steel is usually the best secondary typing any mon could have
MY MAN GOT A SPONSOR!!!! I am so proud bro you're amazing!
Am I exaggerating if I say that Tauros has the best sp. attack move pool in the game excluding legendaries? Just look at it: ice beam, blizzard, solar beam, thunderbolt, thunder, flamethrower, fire blast, surf... shadow ball!?
They even expanded the ridiculous move pool in gen IX by giving it hydro pump. Hydro pump!?
Combine this with a sp. attack that is lower than that Gyarados and even Rhydon, you get a big what if.
gen 1 at its finest
And this is where Pokémon Showdown’s godly gift comes in
Atleast paldean tauros doesn't get turned into steaks like paldean miltank
11:00 that Invincible edit was fucking brutal on 2 layers, dayum :D
Alakazam, Exeggutor & Snorlax: Are we jokes to you?
Imagine if they gave Tauros an ability to ignore recharge
at this point, they should just remove the recharge off of hyperbeam and its variants. We have moves that have MORE base power with less drawbacks littering the game at this point, it wouldn't even be out of the ordinary.
Hey man it’s so awesome to see you grow from just a few k followers to how big you are now in just these past handful of months
The funny magma snail has returned!
I think most of us would have used Tauros back in the late 90s more if he wasn't impossible to find and catch in the Safari Zone. (Keep in mind, this was when we only knew to use the Cinnabar Island glitch to duplicate Master Balls and Rare Candies)
The fact they made 3 new Tauros shows they know they did him dirty
Oh boy! A new video from the best poketuber. I sure do hope that the scuffed as fuck taruos doodle from the ash video shows up.
Also, UUBL isn't the saddest place to be, The saddest, aside from Regigigas' chair, is the bottom of Ubers, which is where legendaries go to die.
honestly valid point cause you may have be in OUBL
@@magcarjoseph2nd OUBL is a great place to be since you're the best of the best... more or less. What I'm really talking about is pokemon like lugia who aren't allowed in OU since they're too strong, but are absolute trash in Ubers. Basically stuck in purgatory
Tauros is the jock that peaked in high school. He now works at Arbys and has several warrants
Its a shame for Tauros. I only ever used it in Y for the Battle Mason's Triple Battle Strategy. I had a Tauros with Max HP & Speed with the ability Anger Point. Gave him Chesto Berry, Rest, Zen Headbutt, Earthquake and i forgot the other moves. His teammates were a Flying Type and another Pokemon with Telepathy to take 0 damage from Earthquake. I miss the bull
Probably Return or Body Slam if I had to guess.
Like how you joked about not having a sponsor in one of your older vids and look at you now! A mildly succesful niche youtube channel. The sky's the limit
We all miss the days when the bull was shooting those supercharged POZZED hyperbeams
THE FOG IS COMING THE FOG IS COMING THE FOG IS COMING
Omds I never would have guessed you play Rome Total War😂
Gotta love it
Gen 9 has seen some improvements to do the normal type ala we have gotten several good Normal Type Pokemon this gen like Ursaluna/Blood Moon Ursaluna,Farigiraf,Maushold,Cyclizar,etc.
I know all about Tauros and it's plight however that was still a fun watch, good job!
Now I want you to talk about staraptor now from 4 straight gens being UUBL
I hope they make an ability that if you use a move that has stab and take 1 turn to recharge don't have to recharge if it kos
It’s like how Angron has an amazing special move pool, and terrible special attack.
The big yellow footage lmao
This is the peak of Pokémon content.
5:07 Censorship is misspelled
10:12 Pokémon have a 1/16 (6.25%) crit chance in gen 2
10:31 where are Machamp’s other arms, I’m scared for it
Tauros has always been my favorite Normal type. So to see it get nerfed into the ground is upsetting. But that doesn’t stop me from using my favorite Bull
We need and deserve a monitor Tauros evolution am I right or am I right
I assume you mean “Minotaur”
And Minotauros needs to be a thing
Honestly a computer screen is an odd concept but I do think that a Minotaur could work!
Wow, Joe! That IS a nice segway..... I'm gonna steal it
Dear magcarjoseph, i sincerely ask you if one of the lovely days you can do a playthrough of the famous game pokemon platinum with only dragon types, It would be a good video to see.
Tauros Hyperbeamed many out of existence in Gen 1
In other words:
Tauros was victim of the power creep, special split on sp def and sp atk and the hyperbeam fix
14:11 you said the paldean stats.
I did not expect a gulf war reference
at the very least paldean tauros is pretty good in ru, which happens to be where quite a few former titans are at.
They really had to just remake gen 1 in gen 5 didn't they
I've been comp. pokemon content pilled lately and the algorithm blessed me. Your name is stupendous
I feel like tauros is good in gen 1 because it is emblematic of everything super powerful about gen 1 besides psychic types
-normal type
-body slam
-hyper beam
-wack coverage
-speed crits
It was good because the game wasn't.
So RBY Tauros was basically the Avatar
Saw new video, felt intense euphoria.
Your art is the best. This channel is probably the only one I actually want to watch and not just listen to. Great job. 😄
Tauros: I used to rule ou, mons would faint when I gave the word. Now I sit alone. Swept by mons I used to own.
I used to roll the dice. Feel the fear in my enemies eyes.
Listen as the crowd did say. Hyperbeams gone long live Snorlax!
One minute I hit both sides. Now I have 40 special attack!
(Ect lol)
Why when i rewatch all of your vids, you suddently upload
i was gonna watch the US/UM nuzlocke you mentioned, but it isn't on your twitch channel :(
do you have a vod channel?
At some point yes! but it'll work in a way that I'll first make a full video on the magcarjoe live channel and the then upload the entire thing onto a vods channel!
14:11 *100 Attack 110 Speed
true, my mistake
That Staraptor joke had me cackling.
That's a nice Segway, Joe.
I know bro just laughs at his monitor when editing 😂 Your a fkn classic mate! 👏
Dam, I didn't know it fell of that fast
Our MagcarJoe has grown up so much he now gets sponsored ♡
I personally think tinkaton is the most tragic mon ...look at how much gamefreak nerfed its attack (75)😢, all because of his typing. Truly a sad story. Giganerf hammer
I'm 31 years old and I don't trust the Government. Great Tauros love though. I like the Paldea Tauros cards, I wish they made a full range of them in full arts.
Tauros reminds me of Rapidash. They both are Pokémon with a horn.
The funny thing is that Paldean Tauros was actually a pretty great Pokemon in VGC until people figured out how to use Flutter Mane to wreck everything. The super Pokemon thing they've been doing since Gen 7, arguably gen 6 if you include Megas, but I don't, has really thrown off the balance of the games. Regieleki is ridiculous, the Ultra Beasts were ridiculous, the paradox Pokemon are ridiculous and now Pokemon are getting dual abilities too and that's ridiculous-er.
Congrats on the Sponsor magcarJoe!!
Can you do a quad weakness run, where all your Pokémon are quad weak to a type?
I think Tauros needs an ability that lets it use hyper beam or giga impact style moves without recharge. Call it unrelenting rage.
There WAS a ROMhack I played once that had a similar Ability, and called it Vigor. 20% buff to the user's moves of 120 BP or higher, and took away the recharge turn of moves that have them if they got a kill with it.
I love your videos so much. Your humor has me giggling so often. Please keep making videos, Lord Magcargo
The best of his realm, except maybe Snorlax, who is still very stonks
Tauros once again showing that gamefreak not only plays favourites, but actively hates a large percentage of their children. Just like an alcoholic father, the punches just keep rolling in.
RIP all Pokemon that aren't furry clickbait.
The #1-Think-Ahead Gamer is back
You are the funniest non-poketuber poketuber. I'm very glad to be here before 1k subs. You are gonna go far kid
At least paldean tauros fucks in the lower tiers of gen 9, raging bull is a fantastic move
