I think you're probably right. That's just the Tera the Hitmontop had when it was caught/transferred. I love the use of Feint on it. I think Feint is very underrated.
@@NotAlphaCentauriDid you not see what that thing did in Sw/Sh? It was so broken that both forms were banned to AG on Smogon, it was just not ok in the state it was in.
3:30 Hitmontop, Cresselia and Ogerpon combined for essentially one attacking move 💀😂 Also what is this Ting Lu Set 🫎😂 To each their own I guess. Still an interesting team to say the least.
Hitmontop gets two key moves that Incineroar does not: Wide Guard and Feint. Mienshao gets the same moves and is picking up in usage as well. Wide Guard protects against strong spread moves, which most restricted legendary Pokémon use (Terapagos, both Calyrex, Groudon, Kyogre). Feint breaks Protect, which is bigger deal with restricted legendaries because your legendary Pokémon hits harder and your opponent’s legendary is important for them to Protect.
If that was me, every single play rough would have missed 😅Very interesting team but I’ve been having some success with crowned Zacian with swords dance and I don’t think I could go to uncrowned after that. No behemoth blade is a bit of a downer
A weird interaction happens at 29:32, whenever a pokemon holding an eject button gets hit by an attack boosted by sheer force, the eject button does not trigger. Not sure if this is intended or not but its actually works this way.

clear amulet is a insane item , so good it’s worth giving up your steel typing , behemoth blade and base stats ..
Hell no
This unique teams are so dope! Definitely a breath of fresh air
I don’t know if Hitmontop gets coaching but I was expecting it to be coaching Hitmontop + Zacian.
Yeah I think coaching is better here,especially because no swords dance on zacian
So
Coaching
Fake out
Close combat
Wide guard
Uncrowned Zacian was not on my bingo card
Because most of these poke influencers are brain dead.
you should try kyurem white freeze dry, its kinda insane, have like 90% WR with it to master 3YWJSD
This team is crazy woah
Crowned Zacian with clear amulet would be absolutely busted
Tbh the horses should be restricted to held certain key items too. They’re too OP.
If it could hold two items yea
A lot of mons would be busted with 2 held items
Justice For Zacian, the nerf were overkill

James is Baek with more top tier Pokémon content, I see. Putting the 'G' in Regulation G.
Love the Sword & Shield music in combination with the Zacian
James is a great VGC player I mean.. great VGC player
You mean gretest?
I love how he just ignores the Bundle in the first battle😭 he was just icy windin’

This formats going to get Crazy!!!
The regular version of Zacian and Zamazenta look so much cooler than the crowned.
They're definitely cuter
Can anyone explain to me why he is using hitmontop over incineroar??
Hitmontop gets two key moves that Incineroar does not: Wide Guard and Feint. Mienshao gets the same moves and is picking up in usage as well.

wait standard zacian is ac fire
Its so anti incin I love it 😂
Justice For Zacian, the nerf were overkill 😤
No
Zacian had it coming
Bring out the gloom
this team looks randomly generated💀 peak CTS cheese

If only you were running that Chein Pao set that has assault vest and Tera electric Tera blast. You would have had that last game
Surprised you didn't face any incineroars since I'm guessing thats the main reason Zacian has the clear amulet.
That play at about 10 minutes is one of the sickest VGC plays I've ever seen
So much for the standard zacian not viable
ok ok, im back
we here

Same mechanic that prevents life orb recoil on sheer force users

Wait no behemoth blade on zacian? Who cooked this?!?!
Iron head changes into behemoth blade only when you're holding the rusty sword. You can't use the move without rusty sword
Regular form zacian doesn't have behemoth blade. The other form just changes iron head to behemoth blade.
I'm 97% sure I was the 1 loss lol
