This was not the intro I remember rehearsing
The Geneva Convention circa 1929 (Colorized)
oh god the whole squad rolling out
Rosa reppin the mute gang
Primarina beats good stuff and thats why its good - Vg Jungle 2020
We unfortunately lost our comrade LRXC in the grips of his heated UU PSPL game whilst doing this-
press f to pay respects to our fallen brother ✊😔
That UU game was kinda sick tho
LOL I JUST SAW THIS
Who is Elo Bandit, also free wind tunnel
You should link us all the spreadsheet as View Only :)

Elo Bandit you're my favorite :)
I just got recommended your channel by youtube, I saw you on the blunder vid a while back and I really liked your style of informative with charismatic delivery. Glad to be a new sub :]
yall are too much 1 minute in and im already loving the vid
LOVE IT
always love a chaotic intro
I know it sounds meme-y, but scarf weavile reliably beats a good half of the biggest threats in the metagame: low kick baits and kills non hp invested darm-g, Icicle Crash kills Haxorus and most non-Komo-o dragons, Knock Off 1HKOs Dragapult, most ghosts as well as some Jirachis. In the fourth slot i keep dig for the random toxtricity, but I really could not find anything useful.
I tried this out on ladder and it works surprisingly well. I slapped X-Scissor on to lure Malamar. Thanks for the suggestion!
IT ALSO BEATS SCARF Z VICTINI
Hi Elo!
You may remember someone asking about Nat Dex 1v1 on one of your videos. Yeah, that was me, my channel got spontaneously taken down because UA-cam 😓
I talked to the people involved with the Nat Dex formats, and they said they'd consider it, so we might have a completely new metagame on our hands if that goes through! Looking forward to Z-Mirror Move cheese again-
NatDex 1v1 Discord link: discord.gg/f9MhyhC
It's a thing, no official ladder yet though
hi, natdex 1v1 council here. We already have natdex 1v1 as an other metagame of 1v1, however no official ladder yet as bandit stated. feel free to join that discord though
This elobandit guy is really well spoken. He should make a UA-cam channel
wait you were recording?
oh god, the different volume levels. can't hear a few of them while the others a blowing out our ears.
Ooh, you got the whole gang out here, dope
Really nice video! Always cool to see how things are done in the council, and the call discussion sums it. Much love!!
Never thought primarina would dominate any meta game but here we are
Bandit got the goons to come snag yo elo
23:42 what the hell did I just hear!?
I've played thousands of 1v1s and I've never killed a Primarina.
Yeah why did they think primarina was so good?
In a metagame without Z-moves, Primarina is incredibly hard to one-hit KO. Most super effective attacks merely drop it into Torrent range and +1 Hydro Cannon KOs in response. Excellent coverage in Moonblast (v dragons), Sparkling Aria (v Sub), Aqua Jet (v Crustle + Sawk), and Encore (v CorsolaG + stall) let it beat a wide variety of top threats nearly 100% of the time.

I'm enjoying a Hawlucha/Lucario combo in OU Doubles, but would be keen for feedback etc. for better moves or EVs to use, team-members to support it(I just have Pokémon that work well in Doubles for the rest of the team):
Hawlucha (M) @ Liechi Berry
Ability: Unburden
EVs: 252 Atk / 244 Def / 12 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Fling
- Acrobatics
- Power-Up Punch
- Rock Slide
Lucario (M) @ Lum Berry
Ability: Justified
EVs: 28 HP / 252 Atk / 96 Def / 96 SpD / 36 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Agility
Basically you Fling on Lucario turn 1 giving it +2 Attack, which you can then EQ or Agility/Swords Dance with Lucario, alternatively you could give a berry to fling that increases speed for a free 'Dragon Dance'? I like that it also doubles the speed for Hawlucha which can then STAB Acrobatics or Rock Slide for flinch. Feedback would be appreciated(I'm not by any means great with picking the best EVs etc.), I've just enjoyed using this 'gimmick'?
We need more gimmicks
Entrainment Durant is better than standard ant and nothing can change my mind
ELON SALANDIT
From watching the first 8 mins, I've realized that the most positive aspect of a Dragon type is that it can run a Haban Berry😂
All hail elo
Where is a good source for sets regarding 1v1?
are there any sample teams to use?
can i give No Guard to an mismagius?
he has zap cannon and inferno, very unused powerful and destructive moves.
Thoughts on Durant?
Durant @ Choice Band
Ability: Hustle
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
First Impression
Iron Head
Giga Impact
Superpower
Pokemon this set beats (assuming standard sets):
Non berry Primarina
Galarian Darmanitan
Sylveon
Dracovish
Dracozolt
Haxorus
All specs rotom forms
Zeraora
Whimsicott
Grimmsnarl
Hydreigon
Non berry Incineroar
Non berry Snorlax
+many others that I don't feel like listing right now...
Everyone was hyping up Entrainment Truant in the video, but I think this Choice set looks really solid too. I've been underestimating Hustle damage tbh
@@EloBandit First impression throws a lot of people off guard. It allows durant to beat faster mons (mainly scarf galarian-darmanitan)
252+ Atk Choice Band Hustle Durant First Impression vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Darmanitan-Galar: 517-610 (147.2 - 173.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO
First impression is going to ko most pokemon that aren't resistant or defensive invested.
I personally like to think of durant as a galarian-darmanitan that always beats itself (except for weird endure salac zen mode sets lol)
If whimsi protects t1 (which it should) you lose
@@jebx7801 iron head
