Hey everyone! There's a lot to unpack with Proactive vs Reactive actions. Simply put, if you're the one taking Proactive Actions, you're setting the pace of the game. How and when you decide to be proactive is partly what defines your playstyle. If you're interested, we could explore this topic further in that super special fourth video.
at this point you know why I'm here :P but seriously your editing is starting to get insane, you are honeslty my second favourite creator on youtube at this point (after WolfeyVGC, cant hate the goat) every video just keeps getting better and more entertaining to watch. keep up the absolutely amazing work and ofcourse a question: what is your favourite pokemon to use in VGC (for me it has to be amoonguss, with landorus I as a close second)
It’s hard to beat the GOAT! For real though, that’s some incredibly high praise, thank you! My favorite Pokémon in VGC definitely changes depending on the format. Actually, Landorus was one of my favorites back in Regulation D! Right now, I’d have to go with Hydreigon. It applies a lot of immediate offensive pressure and can really take over games if positioned well.
I don’t have plans to compete at regionals this year, though there might be one exception tied to a video I’m working on. This year, my focus is on content, unlike last year when I was juggling both competing and creating content. I’ll still be taking part in some online tournaments, though. How about yourself?
@@PokeProfessorJosh I went to Dortmund last weekend, I’m 100% going to Lille and hopefully euic, I also really want to go Utrecht and other than that I’ll most likely wait and see
The last point is.. like it's not always true I feel. even if theoretically there was "something you could've done to win that specific match" let's say I could win a match if i changed slowbro's speed. Sure maybe it'd win that matchup but the evs moved would cause me to then lose OTHER matchups. So saying that theres so often something you could've done isn't always true w/out jeopardizing other matches. You can't cover everything at once
Sure, and the guide doesn’t think you can cover every single possible interaction in the game. But it does stress that there’s always something to learn by reviewing your matches. In your example, it might be discovering a better way to handle tricky outliers using auxiliary Pokémon, instead of Slowbro.

Step 1: Be WolfeyVGC
Wolfe’s definitely a great player! But even the best players were noobs at some point, some of us are just still stuck there. 😅
@@PokeProfessorJoshyeah I've been stuck there since 1996!! 👁️👄👁️
Ty for the video!
This is certainly a crazy relevant topic that no one talks about.
For sure! Better players mean better competition and more exciting stories. I just hope people can learn from the author's guide and keep growing!
Dude, this video is a fricking gold mine.
PokeProfessor is an amazingly accurate name !!!
Love from Greece!
Thanks so much, I’m always amazed at how far a video can reach, sending some PokeProfessor love right back to Greece!

@@PokeProfessorJosh heidreigon is always awesome, it’s sad I’m only going to 2 events this year because I want to try a bunch of awesome pokemon
@@PokeProfessorJosh are you going to any regionals this year?

At this point Slowbro's just catching strays, bro xD
As always, great content Professor Josh.
Slowbro is getting exactly the amount of shade it deserves! But it’s good seeing you around again though.
