So cozy! I love the feel of these videos, they always put me at ease and I love how you feature off-meta Pokemon. Please keep this series running (and I'd love to tune in if you ever stream your attempts live).
Last night I was searching for an Ampharos strat-saw your channel and I thought how you feature off-meta pokemon is sick! Checking your channel today and seeing this vid uploaded 4 mins ago?? With my fav mon???? I’m definitely using this strat, keep it up!
Ahhhhh another episode of my favorite series. A suggestion for a future video is Meganium. I’ve always had a soft spot for Chikorita and Bayleef because of the anime, and it always felt like it was the most forgotten/least loved starter, so would love to see it finally get some love. If it just doesn’t have the tools to make it work I get it, but just throwing the idea out there
Ahhhh thank you for covering Ampharos! You’ve also gotten really good at doing live commentary too - I remember you saying that was something you wanted to work on, and I think you’ve been doing great! I absolutely love this series. My favorites other than Ampharos are Espeon and Brambleghast if you’re still taking suggestions!
Would love to see you use krookodile in the future, it only has 0.02% usage despite being decent. Maybe you could make use of anger point with super luck scope lens night slash honchcrow (another unseen mon)
That’s a great suggestion! Krookodile is part of the long line of dark type mons that got obliterated from the meta game when flutter mane became legal lol, but I would love to bring it back for an episode! Thanks!
This reminded me of a gimmick Mega Ampharos set I ran back in Gen 6. It knew Confuse Ray, Charge Beam, Dragon Pulse and Signal Beam. I had fully invested into it's Def and used its regular form to fish for Para off of Static on the enemy. Then I'd Mega, Confuse them and spam Charge Beam to raise it's Sp. Atk before going in with Dragon Pulse. Ultimately, the set was more of a nuisance than a threat and it would usually only defeat 1 or 2 enemy Pokemon but it was a silly little troll set that I enjoyed. In hindsight, I should have dropped Signal Beam for Thunder Wave and Mega'd immediately, but at the time, I was just trying to compress as much utility into Ampharos as possible. Nice seeing you get some use out of the silly naked sheep, I didn't know it can run Meteor Beam these days, so that makes your build tenuously similar to my Gen 6 Mega set with Sp. Ark boosting! XD
I have really enjoyed this series so far and there are so many Pokémon you can do this with. You probably have a massive queue for this but if you ever run out, may I throw Yanmega’s hat into the ring?
Ampharos and its pre-evos are collectively amongst my favorite Pokémon of all time. I have one on my team wvery generation its available. Seeing it do well in competitive makes my heart very happy ❤
I don’t think meteor beam existed in gen 5 so to get the gen 5 art of meteor beam for that one second clip shows a lot of love went into this. Oh and tera blast didn’t exist either lol
suggestion: maybe vespiquen in the next poll, I almost never see it in VGC but I love to use it in casual playthroughs. vespiquen is definitely in my favorite bug types along with scolipede and volcarona.
Having just caught up with the first 4 episodes, I was wondering if you'd do rental codes! Definitely want to try this one out. I used a much more gimmicky plus/minus team in ultra moon at some point, nice to see someone else use it!
I absolutely love you videos but the jump cuts make me dizzy :( That's a pet peevee though because I like slow-paced vids in general. Have you tried speeding up footage or do you prefer just cutting out the animations?
Ah I’m sorry! I wonder about that sometimes - I try to never cut out moves or switch-ins in their entirety so that it’s possible to follow what’s going on, but there’s so much down time in console battles that I don’t want to have things drag ever. I like the idea of maybe speeding up the gaps, I’ll give it a test on the next video. If it doesn’t work, though, I can at least try to cut more smoothly, cut down on the more drastic jumps. Thanks for the feedback!
Your videos are great, but I'd suggest narrating the entirety of the battle so people that just want to listen can enjoy your battles. Like I know trying to just listen to your videos has been hit or miss at times.
This series rocks🥹recently did something similar where I tried to make Sceptile viable (pre-Dragon Cheer tbf, might work better now) and completely failed, please try Sceptile so I know my favorite isn’t total dogshit🍃
Happy to announce that I have put this team up as a rental! It was too fun not to share - code is 1CGC1S , enjoy!
Ty so much
Now we need the banana boi himself: Tropius and his ability of gaining infinite berries out of nowhere
So cozy! I love the feel of these videos, they always put me at ease and I love how you feature off-meta Pokemon. Please keep this series running (and I'd love to tune in if you ever stream your attempts live).
Thank you!! I’ve thought about streaming the battles before, I’m glad to hear someone is interested :)
@@slamgaming32I would watch… if I see you’re live and I’m available

I just put a rental code in the description, too, if you want to give it a shot! And thanks for the support!

I love that idea! Meganium is also one of my favorites, but it will definitely need a lot of testing to get working - I’ll give it a shot!
I also have a soft spot for chikorita... I was gonna comment the same thing😅
Ampha’s one of my favorite Pokémon. I’m glad to see he’s getting some love in competitive battling, where he doesn’t seem he would do well there.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that, I have been working hard at it - I personally have been eyeing up Espeon already for a future episode!

this video made me take back my "irredeemable" stance to ampharos competitively
great video as always!
I respect the fact that you used plus and minus. I thought they were just meme abilities for the longest time lol
Ampharos has always been a personal fav electric mon of mine. I love seeing someone make use of it and I'm here for this.
That’s great! It’s also one of my favorites
Put Quagsire on the next poll. Justice for my Woopy boi ✊✊
😮, I just commented the same thing, some love for Quagsire!
I have really enjoyed this series so far and there are so many Pokémon you can do this with. You probably have a massive queue for this but if you ever run out, may I throw Yanmega’s hat into the ring?
Consider the hat thrown! Already one of my favorites
I love this series! It's the only online pokemon play that doesn't bore me or annoy me. Keep up the great work!
Edit: ampharos rules!
Thank you! Also yeah, Ampharos was a beast!
Give Ampharos tail glow gamefreak! It literally has a glowy tail!
Ampharos and its pre-evos are collectively amongst my favorite Pokémon of all time. I have one on my team wvery generation its available. Seeing it do well in competitive makes my heart very happy ❤
I don’t think meteor beam existed in gen 5 so to get the gen 5 art of meteor beam for that one second clip shows a lot of love went into this. Oh and tera blast didn’t exist either lol
haha thanks, a little movie magic to make a modern moveset in the gen 5 style!
The intro never gets old ❤️
I appreciate it haha - I make a new song for each one, so I hope they don’t get stale!
Loving this series so far!
Medicham should go next I mean the fact that he has a higher attack stat than Azumarill with the same ability and a solid speed yet he is never used
This was electric frying to watch well showed and can’t wait to see more 👍
A must have for any johto run IMO. Especially in the remakes with the spec split
Totally agree!
Best Pokemon series on UA-cam
Thank you!!
I just got done marathoning the prior episodes! I love this series
That’s awesome! Thank you for the support!!
This whole series is what I've tried to do since my first pokemon game. You're so much better at building teams than I am.
suggestion: maybe vespiquen in the next poll, I almost never see it in VGC but I love to use it in casual playthroughs. vespiquen is definitely in my favorite bug types along with scolipede and volcarona.
That’s a great one! I’ll add it to the list - also, I wish Scolipede was in these games
I used a ampharos/Toxictricity rain team in Reg A, pretty fun
Having just caught up with the first 4 episodes, I was wondering if you'd do rental codes! Definitely want to try this one out. I used a much more gimmicky plus/minus team in ultra moon at some point, nice to see someone else use it!
Forgot to mention it in the video, but the rental code is in the description! First time I’ve put one up
@@slamgaming32 I saw, thanks! 😄
Yeah new favorite poke youtuber for sure
I never saw anyone use ampharos in VGC so I’m happy you used it
Edit:stupid autocorrect
It was actually pretty great, too!
I find AMPHAROS is best used in doubles as a bulky speed control mon with cotton guard, light screen, discharge, heal bell and the static ability
What a fun watch!!!! I love ampharos
Me to!! And thanks!
Awesome video, I love this series
Glad you enjoy, thanks!
