      if magcargo manages to achieve victory in the horse civil war, will it's faction and their new rule, stretch the definition of horse? and if so, to what extent?
      for example, will all quadruped pokemon be granted horse-likelyness in the eyes of the law?
      like metagross...
      can metagross be considered a horse now?
      what about garchomp...
      garchomp is really fast, would he be considered a sand-horse, or a horse-shark?
      what actions will the fellowship of 600 bsp gym bros take, now that they have watched a few of your previous videos, gazing upond their primal, young, glory days, from the depts of uu?
      will metagrass, the hypie grass-psychic type paradox form of metagross, appear from the fog of war, tempting him with visions of explosions, even tho he is busted +1 attack, +2 speed, in front of a gengar, only enemy remaining pokemon of enemy team, with the purpose of premptively counteract the enemy terastalization tactics in gen 3ou?

      Dear Jimothy Cool,
      I am writing to express my deep appreciation for your Competitive Pokémon videos. Just as Sleep Powder gently lulls a Pokémon into a peaceful slumber and Yawn gradually induces drowsiness, your insightful commentary and calming delivery have a similarly soothing effect on me. The detailed strategies and engaging content not only enhance my understanding of competitive play but also help me unwind and transition into a restful state.

    I'm concerned by Jimothy Cool's deceptive behaviour. We were promised new subscribers would be converted to Horsepower at once. Yet you say we've not given Magcargo the converted subscribers at this time? Magcargo may be in danger from a treacherous tactic of Horsea's own if he doesn't receive the needed Horsepower. Could this be a duplicitous move on Jimothy's part?

      Jimothy cool is not to be trusted. He may act like he cares for the pokemon, or even the viewer but Jimothy cares for no one save himself.
      He is a ruthless business man, most likely in kahoots with the likes of Old Money.
