This pokemon is so teamfight-oriented. More tenacity when near enemies, more shields when hitting more enemies with moves, more CDR from basics on multiple targets, big ult with wall when multiple enemies around
Yeah, and it's trash cause how the ability doesn't seem to work and inconsistency while Metang has the same Hp as a Machoke then around 7~9 ish you're still not tanky cause Azumarill has more Hp then you btw until lv 13 that's when you've more Hp and Meteor Mash having a 1 day cooldown then ult dosent give you invincibility, Massive shields or anything really makes Metagross a Worst Scizor. If you wanna feel really bad compare Metagross with Leech life + Superpower Buzzwole at around lv 13
Metagross is MY MON... I always wanted it in the game. I am a HUGE Metagross fan since Gen 3 and since then, its my Favourite Mon... It looks cool, is freaking awesome and generally a menace in pokemon. until its not anymore... But I STILL love it :D
Keep playing it, this is a scizor situation, it will be buffed and then it may become really good or even too good... i love it too and it feels really nice playing it atm.
I really hope they reduce metagross move cool down, change the unite move and increase the stun on zen headbutt and make it a sure hit move (something similar to heavy slam stun)
Red Emblems in general are pretty bad in physical attacks for their return. The 350 HP is mitigated by the big minus of def/sp def that set gives. Because of that I don’t think red 7 will be a thing for metagross or any physical attackers at the moment. However I do think that Scarf + Muscle is very appealing and do enough of what you want to accomplish.
its a common misconception that defenses matter but they at worst ( LV 1 ) makes u take 2% more damage scaling down rapidly as u level up. 350 HP is often worth 8-12% effective health. I do agree red 7 is often not very good though as there isnt a pokemon that wants red 7 currently as it's only option.
I feel like nobody reads the mon manuals these days. Ego mindset has everyone out here not minmaxing. The result? Metagrosses on my team with 15k damage 🤦♂️
Not someone complaining that speedsters are 2 shotting them....honestly they're built for quick assassinations because they have the lowest hp pools between attackers/allrounders/speedsters. Lol they can't brawl so they have to be balanced in the way that a single move rotation of theirs is going to do more(default stat wise) compared to the rest of the mons in game. They're literal glass canons, lol please stop complaining about speedsters being strong when you keep going into fights with no where near full hp with cranked down defenses as your emblem build on an allrounder. 🥴🥴🥴🥴
The fact the unite isn’t even unstoppable is just wild. The only slightly good thing about it is the annoying wall it makes, and that only lasts for around a second or two!
-15 defense in the grand scheme of things means nothing i would have still died in all those situations without it. In a recent video i was 1 shot as a garchomp a level ahead on zoro i think that mon is for sure a bit aggressively balanced
@@PhilYoumuus you ALSO blamed getting one shot on have no weakness policy the 2nd game...when it was equipped lol. You died in a team fight, it's ok lol. You got hit by Zeraora's unite move and his wild charge on top of taking damage from their teammates so....lol it's just funny when UA-camrs die in their stream or video and almost like are embarrassed and need to put the blame on something. 🥴🥴🥴 @17:20
@@frrrvnk6905 lmao what are u talking about i didnt say i played perfectly i only died bc of xyz stupid reason. im saying im squishier bc of my build lol. Clowns like u are why youtubers cherry pick stomps for their videos to avoid having to deal with people like this.
I also like that you make longer and more detailed guides than other content creators. Most of them only show one game, don’t explain so much like you and they only show games were everything goes perfect. Really good vids fr 🫶🏻

muk should come to the game as a defender or all rounder
Defender focussed on slowing the and zoning the enemy Pokémon wouldn’t be a bad idea.
Darn phil having the same ideas as me not letting me feel cool and/or hip.
you sounded sick in the intro so hope you feel better.
I personally like these longer videos
strep throat zzz
i think muscle band should be changed to resonant guard that might be more viable in team fight
14:02 there's also zeraora both are the same

I like the long form, you can make some short stuff if you want but I love the long form!

I'd say red scarf is enough with brown and white embs imo. I'm also enjoying Metagross bud!
What’s the emblem behind your head, Phil?
This videos are like a TV Series for me now, I like how long this is

utilising red 7 looks really cool
Better player in Pokémon UNITE 😊
I like the long videos so thanks
This looks like something an idea that would have been great to comment on the last video 👍
Good video as usual 👌
Much prefer the longer content, sick build btw
7 red is the key! A9 on game 1 couldn’t handle rank 1 Metagross
PS I enjoy Phil’s long videos.

yesterday i saw a mewtwo Y on my team just hitting the auto atk button while staying still like a fool lol so desperating
Does Red 7 work on Dragapult?
Very nice ending tho hahahaha
Your Metagross is solid. it's just the emblems stats that was the problem. You gave up too many defense stats.
You convinced me to reinstall unite after 6 weeks without it
I saw game one mamoswine 90k damage, wtf 🤯
I’ve done 137K as mamo jungle. My boi mamo just needs a little love
Low key maybe there might be like a math optimal setup. Like maybe the mathcord discovers that the optimal math is like 5 red 6 brown with muscle.

i def prefer the long form content
Hey, I'm in game 3.
I think this guy needs some auto attack healing
All they have to do is fix his unite move, and then this thing will actually be viable.
Lowering cooldowns by at max 1.75 sec would be nice too but the already mid unite just getting canceled is wild
@@Skeletonpie. they should add a hindrance resistance in the unite at the scanning phrase
The fact the unite isn’t even unstoppable is just wild. The only slightly good thing about it is the annoying wall it makes, and that only lasts for around a second or two!
Phil I love you, but you can’t be surprised you’re getting one shot sometimes when you have -15 defense and -13 special defense
