DON'T Teach Your Pokemon These Moves
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 жов 2024
- Most of the time, Pokemon synergize well with the moves they can learn. But that's not always the case, so today we're looking at even more of the worst synergies in Pokemon. Which move is Slaking unable to use effectively thanks to its ability Truant? Which Eeveelution should you avoid if you teach your Eevee Synchronoise? Do Matt and Elias know each other's middle names? What's Gengar's deal? All that and more today on MEPlaysGames.

Evil MEPlaysGames is taking the day off because we have a few notes on this video.
Like we said, Rising Voltage is pretty usable even if the user isn’t grounded, but I don’t think we made it very clear why it was included in the video. We brought it up primarily to compare and contrast it with Expanding Force. It’s not a terrible synergy on a Zapdos, but the moves share a lot in common. We wanted to untangle the differences in this video to show why Expanding Force is worse than Rising Voltage for flying and levitating Pokemon.
There is one Pokemon that used to be able to change genders, but it’s no longer possible. Azurill is 75% female, but its evolutions’ gender ratios are 50/50. Prior to gen 6, female Azurill had a 1 in 3 chance to become a male Marill, depending on its personality value. In any case, you’ve never been able to change a Pokemon’s gender without also changing its species
We did some more research while editing, and it turns out that Raygun being listed as the #1 breakdancer was in fact not rage bait. When it comes to World DanceSport Federation events, many breakdancers only take part in enough competitions to make it to the Olympics, and Raygun was one of those people. Last October, she competed in the Oceania championships and came in first. That was the only ranked event she participated in, giving her a score of 1,000 points. Olympic placements are not included in the rankings, so her last place finish in Paris didn’t affect her standing. There were also no ranked events in the 8 months leading up to the Olympics. So her placement has more to do with a faulty ranking system.
you’re not the boss of me
5:22 Sloths in real life are actually so slow that algae grows on them in a symbiotic relationship, and that could in theory allow them to gather sunlight in a magical Pokémon world.
Fun fact about Synchronoise.
It can only hit 24 Evolutionary Families for super-effective damage
These are
- Mega Lopunny (And ONLY Mega Lopunny)
- Pirouette Form Meloetta
- The Stufful Line (Stufful + Bewear)
- The Zubat Line (Zubat + Golbat + Crobat)
- Hawlucha
- The Tentacool Line (Tentacool + Tentacruel)
- Qwilfish
- Skrelp ONLY
- The Mareanie Line
- Poliwrath ONLY
- Keldeo
- The Salandit Line (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Flareon)
- Combusken + Blaziken (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Flareon)
- Monferno + Infernape (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Flareon)
- Pignite + Emboar (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Flareon)
- The Bulbasaur Line (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- The Oddish Line (Minus Bellossom) (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- The Bellsprout Line (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- The Budew Line (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- The Foongus Line (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- Breloom ONLY (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- Virizion (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- Chesnaught ONLY (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Leafeon)
- Crabominable ONLY (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Glaceon)
13 of these families are only able to be hit with it super-effectively if a specific Eeveelution decides to run it, and only Glaceon has a Special Attack stat over 100 out of those three, with Leafeon's being only 60.
If Synchronoise wasn't removed in Gen 8, the following families would also be weak to it
- Rapid-Style Urshifu
- Quaquaval ONLY
- Pawmo + Pawmot (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Jolteon)
- Flamigo
- Iron Hands (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Jolteon)
- Iron Valiant
- Galarian Weezing
- Fezandipiti
- Iron Moth (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Flareon)
- The Shroodle Line
- The Toxel Line (Only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Jolteon)
- Galarian Zapdos
- Blaze Breed and Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros (Blaze Breed only if taught to Eevee that evolved into Flareon)
Bringing the total up to 37
And to be honest, I *WISH* they kept it in the game, maybe Urshifu wouldn't be so overpowered if that was the case. Have a Water Type on the field that hits it with a 120 power psychic type move would be amazing.
Remember theres a Forretress pokemon card with a move called "EVERYONE EXPLODE NOW".
Always a great day when my favorite heterosexual couple uploads.
Wtf
i knew i wasn't the only one
Lmao😊
Agreed
Wait what?
Are they really a couple?
Sloths move so slow that moss naturally grows on them and is a part of their base physiological state. So yes, learning solar beam makes sense.
Let me guess don’t teach final gambit to a shedinja
Or rest to shedinja since rest Wil aways fails because shedinja wil be a full health
I used to think final gambit was based on percentage so sadly i did teach my shedinja final gambit. I learned the hard way.
@@torchilicho I like and hate the move Gambit from X men is cool but that’s the only reason I like it the name . I hate it because I tried catching a Riolu and it kept using final gambit
@@gavinaaric lmao those are both valid reasons to love and hate that move. I don’t really use the move but i appreciate the concept. I do like running obscure hail mary moves every now and then.
Ah rising voltage.
I had a fun memory in gen 8. My electric resist was out of play, and my opponent looked ready to sweep with electric terrain up and his specs Rising Voltage Regieleki in.
No hazards were on my side of the field, so my opponent was praying I didn't have a focus sash.
I told him I did not.
Then I bring in my Air Balloon Victini. Which proceeded to Trick Room and sweep in the sun with V-Create.

uhhh acktually my name is pronounced "Elias supremacy" I'd like to see this corrected for the next video thanks
'There's no C String on a guitar'
But my guitar is tuned to Drop C
I don’t know Luigi was psychic flying type. I thought he was normal dark. But you are right probably can’t learn, expanding force.
Did you know that Staraptor fell from UUBL in Gen VII all the way to NU in Gen IX, skipping Gen VIII due to dexit?
And, as an addendum, Staraptor isn’t even doing all that great in NU either ;-;
Dudes, Staraptor was my guy in Platinum. They were everyone's guy. They made the perfect regional bird and then everything after couldn't live up to it until Corviknight.
Also, both of those birds can learn Rest, which is of course a joke because they also get Roost, which they would prefer most of the time despite Rest healing more. But I mean Rest is a near-universal TM so that's not saying much. I dunno, I'm sure someone out there has made Chesto Resto Staraptor at some point.
it's dumb that the Lake Trio learns Expanding Force naturally YET THEY CAN'T FULLY UTILIZE IT BECAUSE THEY FLOAT, the condition that they must be grounded needs to be removed
6:20 Elias becoming the next pommel horse guy sleeper agent turned DWTS contestant confirmed
I liked using Staraptor in Singles with Reckless and just trying to immediately break the other team's lead with Brave Bird and Double-Edge and Close Combat for coverage and then Quick Attack for some final damage if I knew I'd be outsped, but it never really worked :D
Though Counter lost the normal/fighting quirk in gen 2, it's worth noting that before gen 4 all Hidden Power types are physical because the move is treated as normal type for the purposes of Counter. This means you could use Gengar's Counter even if it was hit by Hidden Power of a special attacking type like ice or grass. That also means you can't try using Mirror Coat against it, which could lead to some similarly bad use cases. Don't get caught slipping!
In Pokémon Colosseum, there's a trainer in Mt. Battle who uses a SolarBeam Slacking. lol (also the team doesn't have a Sunny Day user which makes it also weird).
You THANK you can stop ME from using invalid move sets on my pvp team ME, MORTAL?
Don't teach pokemon self destruct,teach them explosion
A comment about Staraptor? Hmm...
Brave Bird go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Seriously, though, I LOVE that thing. Best early route bird. Sick design, cry and everything. Was a blast to use it in my Platinum playthrough.
Starapter is my second favorite regional bird and I think the best execution of the idea overall the later ones that are technically better are the idea if that makes sense
There is one reason to use Flail on Shedinja: It gets around Imprison + Scratch. I didn't say it was a *good* reason.
To be fair, Sheninja can still use harden effective if you baton pass a substitute to it, but that is still too much work.
I used to try a klutz AV trick set to stop mons that set up. It wasn’t amazing but it was something with that ability.
its always a good day to be early to a MEplaysgames vid
ain't no way ME uploaded today is a good day
man I wish that the paradoxes got habilities so that half the time you don't have an ability
Reverend has a video on gen 1 counter shenanigans
Also staraptor is sensational
shedinja can also learn sandstorm via a tm which without having safety goggles will ko it in a turn.
great video, but i think you went over the umbreon point before. oh well isent important. Staraptor is, next time we (hopefully, (copium)) get megas, staraptor should get one, and should just turn into like a bird version of Knife head from Pacific Rim.
and side point, Cryogonal is triple A and just looks like its here to have fun. (and gamefreak, let attract work on genderless pokemon if the user is genderless as well, please.)
Aw, thanks for making sure ❤
Watching this while I eat lunch 🤙 LET'S GOOOOOOO
he said caseoh!! 0:04
BIG YELLOW MENTIONED
W Big Yellow mention!
Staraptor should have been the first fighting/flying and if Legendsza doesnt give us a fighting/flying mega staraptor... i mean thats fair but ill be sad
Klutz works with trick why not fling?
