    What is the best Support move in Pokemon? Some have said that it is "Mud Sport". I find that unlikely.

      It's obviously focus blast, because since it always misses, its not doing any direct damage, thus making it a support move.

    fun fact, brute bonnet is actually pretty good in wifi 3v3 battles because of there being no sleep clause. if the team you’re vsing has no grass type, you can bring brute bonnet in, get free spores and follow them up with a substitute. then you spam trailblaze to make yourself faster than everything and permanently put mons to sleep with them only being able to break your sub in their one waking moment. 4th move can be other damage coverage or swords dance for your trail blazes to hit harder. back when i played wifi 3v3 i had to put safety goggles on my kingambit just to counter it

  • @kr555wizard

    I always wished that they just named the future mons after different metals if they wanted them to all have a unifying theme. Example Iron crown could become Silver crown, it would be more regal and still fit, Iron thorns could become Copper/Bronze thorns which matches the colour scheme better for the future mon. Is it a great naming scheme no, but its still better than what they went with.

    • @mectainea5575
      @mectainea5575 7 днів тому +1

      I had the same thought where the metal in the future paradox names would be determined by their primary types so it fits with the idea of them not only having a more interesting unifying theme but also an extra detail of them being seen as a series of Pokémon thus adding a level of consistency into their naming schemes. Like primary fire types like iron moth could be magnesium moth, primary fairy types like iron valiant being orichalcum valiant, and primary rock types like iron thorns and iron bolder being bronze thorns and bronze bolder with the shared metal name clueing people into the primary types so it determining the metal in the name as their the only future mons that share the same primary type.

    At first I hated the future paradox mons, thinking they all looked the same.

The artworks in 2D environments dont do the future ones justice, since they rely heavily on their metallic textures and glowing lights/digital eyes, which is not properly shown in their sprites or official artwork, and some TCG arts.
    Iron moth lools insane in-game, the different textures for each body part are incredible.

    You have a soothing voice and I like the sentences you form. Also your view is very positive.
    Keep doing what you are doing, screw the haters. Do you have haters? Anyways, that is all I wanted to say.

    Hey Jim! I think a good idea for a video would be “pokemon most improved by tera”. Pokemon like Oricorio, Avalugg, regieleki, and garganacl wouldnt be the pokemon they are now without access to tera, and I would like to hear what others you think belong on this list!

    Imma be taking a break from watching your videos Jimothy. Your content actually made me think to say this. It's very well-structured and you have great understanding of what you mean, even looking at the thumbnail it was crazy but..
    I know too much about Pokemon. This an older-head talking but yea I know exactly know-what-you-mean typa thing. Keep it up I ain't here to stop no one but yea I might hypocrize and watch your Gen 3 stuff

    I know Iron Bundle's got some crazy stats, but the lack of a strong consistent water move hurts it a lot. It has to rely on Hydro Pump, which is inaccurate, or Water Pulse, which is very weak.

    Something else to note about brute bonnet, its speed stat is exactly bad enough where it would never get the speed boost from booster energy to use it as a fast spore user

    The worst thing about Brute Bonnet is that it could have been absolutely insane.
    Even with the worst possible Attack stat and the best possible Speed stat, Brute Bonnet's Attack will still be higher than its Speed by one point, thus preventing it from ever getting a Speed boost from Protosynthesis.

    Even without knowing how strong these Ancient Versions would be, I would always favor them. Just from the few designs they were just so much more interesting, giving hints at more primal and vicious versions of the Pokemon we know. Every oke of them has different adaptations that distinguish them from each other and their regular version.
    All while every single Future Pokemon design is „what if smooth robot“

  • @creeperman1295

    Small flavor detail I like is that all the Past Paradoxes have odd numbered stats while all the Future Paradoxes have even numbered stats (i.e. why Iron Bundle doesn't have 135 speed lol).

    I kinda feel like Paradox Pokemon are gen 9's equivalent to Ultra Beasts, where they aren't quite legendaries in concept, but they also are alot like legendaries, and they're weird and highly specialized alot of the time like them too, and they're from "another world" too so that tracks

    Iron Bundle was a great check to Miraidon. It couldn't switch in, but it was just faster than Miraidon because of the Electric Terrain even without that much investment and you threatened a OHKO on Miraidon. With a slow pivot or a revenge kill, you either forced Miraidon out and then got some other Pokémon or you took down their Miraidon.

    2:42 Ideally you want a higher HP stat. Brute Bonnet's stat spread is bulkier than Toxapex's despite having fewer points allocated into its bulk.

    Honestly, Iron Bundle feels like a joke someone would make up.
    Genuinely, I would've believed you made it up for one of your intro gags if I didn't know any better: "Santa has taken the Pokémon Delibird into his workshop and turned her into a cyborg, allowing her to ravage the OU metagame. Subscribe so that the Pokémon Misdreavus can travel back in time and get help from her great-grandmother to stop Delibird's reign of terror."
