      Swampert and Greninja (or Grenoobja as i like to call it) function way too differently to be comparable. Swampert is a mix of a tank and Swift Swim mega-evolved sweeper, whereas Greninja is an all-out attacking glass cannon. Swampert can take a lot of punishment, but is slow and hits moderately hard while Greninja gets its ass kicked by any semi-powerful hit but is annoyingly fast and hits stupidly hard.
      There are times when one will be infinitely better than the other. For example, anything faster than Greninja just beats it outright (with the list of mons in that category growing...) while Swampert will eat the hit and hit back hard. Grass types will destroy Swampert, but Greninja can Protean its way past them. Many variables, different roles.

    This episode makes me laugh cause it reminds me of a time I bred a perfect IV, perfect nature, shiny, contrary Shuckle. I would put him on the field, boost his def/sp.def and just wait as my opponent just struggled to do any damage to me. And since I was playing against friends (non competitively) they learned to hate my Shuckle. A normal 5 minute battle turned into 35 minutes. They were even using Arceus and any other powerful pokemon they had but they never dealt more than 20 damage. Which leftovers healed.
    My shuckles name was Sonic btw lol.

    "A level 100 Shuckle can potentially deal the most damage in one single attack through the use of numerous stat boosters; by using Helping Hand by two different Pokémon in a Triple battle, holding a Metronome, Power Trick, a Skill Swap to Pure Power or Huge Power, 6 Attack boosts, and a Mimiced Me First used on a slower Pokémon using the Defense Curl/Rollout combo. Also, Shuckle's partner must have the ability Flower Gift and the weather must be sunny. On the 5th turn of using Rollout consecutively without any misses, if used against a level 1 Ledyba, Yanma or Combee with minimum Defense stats, that have been hit with negative Defense modifiers (such as Screech), it can deal 481,266,036 damage with a critical hit." -Bulbapedia

      there's no "potential" this is a hypothetical equation, that is impossible to ever actually pull off, no level 1 ledyba, combee or yanma is ever going to survive to the the 5th rollout for that to even happen. So no there is no "potential" to deal that much damage since it is never going to happen

      I love all your replies. Realise that your replying over something I said that became a meme (but still has the same meaning regardless) after a reply from another more literally redundant meme. A meme still around by hundreds of hipster sheep who live to Suckle's alleged 'hype'. A meme that hipsters and other non players (because all the players here are too busy asking for genuine interesting pokémon) try to maintain when it deserves none thanks to the evidence of the real Shuckle. Would the real Shuckle players please stand up? Watch those Taunts. Missingno has more relevence to the metagame then Fuckle.
      I'd also like to add that I liked everyones individual recommendations this week on here. I scrolled through every comment and gave the hipsters the reality check that they demanded and recieved. False Swipe Gaming deserved better.

      Honestly I'd really like a series of you talking about themed teams through the gens like Sun Hail Rain Gravity Trick Room etc.
      I know they didn't really have a climax til BW I still think they'd be interesting to learn about though. Don't do Sandstorm first because it's the most generic I feel like.
      I think Victreebel deserves a shot.

    Fun fact that unfortunately wasn't mentioned in this video. A Power Trick Shuckle actually won the Junior Finals of the 2009 VGC Nashville Regionals. It was supported by a Smeargle nicknamed Paint.exe and managed to sweep a ton of battles using gyro ball and rock slide, and ended up winning the entire Juniors division. I was there participating in the Seniors division and me and my fellow competitors were laughing our asses off watching this Shuckle shred through whole teams of OU mons after it was set up.
