You can lead a horse to water, but you can't show it how to use its new legs... unless that water happens to contain the Pokémon Corsola, who has four legs and also shares a half-Rock typing with Magcargo. Surely Corsola's invaluable assistance will give Magcargo the power to use his new legs to their full potential, and emerge victorious in the civil war. Thank you.
Some might wonder why corsola isn't on the Horse Council. The answer is simple, folks. For a time, he was, but he realized it was too much of a responsibility and dropped out to focus on his career. This paid off, because now Corsola can use his vast wealth and experience to help his old pal Magcargo.
Do you ever think its weird how dragonite never got any gimmicks? no mega, special z move, dynamax, or regional forms. It did get a great ability tbf but thats it really
@@TheUnique69able Thats still very very rare. At the time Nite regains it during g4, 8 entire line have the move. Since then only Kanto Beasts and HArc gets it
yeah same, not sure if its my headphones making it move obvious to me but I noticed the audio edits and have never noticed them before. I'm loving the vid, but did this audio is a little painful at times
As an Altaria fan, getting mega-Altaria was a dream come true. I remember using a SPICY set I saw first on Pokeaim's channel back in 6th gen. It was a mono attack, set up set with Heal bell, roost, dragon dance, and frustration. With good defense/hp investment, it was nearly impossible to kill, and could set up to obscene levels. Frustration was the real gem, as it pooped on the ditto switch-in, since it would always be max happiness, because why wouldn't it be? Probably my favorite pokemon set still to this day. Still use Altaria even without the mega. Fire spin/perish song is nasty in both singles and doubles/vgc
Best Dragon Flygon has graciously loaned it's Dragon typing to Magcargo, making it the first ever Horse/Dragon Pokémon. Let's hope Flygons sacrifice will help the war effort
Flygon is currently applying for the bug council, and everyone is on board except for Volcarona, who unfortunately has Quiver Dance Veto power, as a founding member.
game freak was like: gen 1: make dragons really scarce gen 2: cue gen 1 gen 3: let's make them stronger and more versatile gen 4: fuck it, give them the most bonkers and spammable moves in the game. also let's release a bunch of very strong boxart legendaries gen 5: give them stupid strong abilities! stupid high offensive stats! ... gen 6: oh noooo we made dragons too strong, we have to make a new type to nerf them
I've been waiting for this one I can't wait to hear about Salamence, one of my favorite Pokemon. I can't wait for the Steel type video either, so I can hear about Metagross, another one of my favorites. Thank you
I’m worried about Macargo’s ability to win against Horsea with that Double Water weakness, if only there were a vaguely horse shaped Slug with Storm Drain to support his stand against the horse rebellion…
Shoutout Druddigon. Love love love that Mon w/ Sheer Force + Choice Band to bolster its Attacking ability to insane heights. Was great once Fairy come in if you IV it to hit 191 speed. Gunk Shot, Fire Punch and Earthquake just Nuke everything to eventually enable Outrage spam. One of my favorite wall breakers.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I've played pokemon since Gen 2, but I've never been into competitive until Gen 9 now! Keep up the great content. 😁
Gen 2 Dragonite's actually a bit better than what's shown here, as Pokemon Crystal gives it access to Extremespeed to couple with his high base ATK. Still remains a relatively niche option though, as it really doesn't get much else in the way of physical offense, and Outrage is only 90 BP in this gen (and a special attack).
Interestingly, Latias seems to have surpassed Tyranitars rank in gen4 Ou, being the second best pokemon in the tier and the best dragon type too. And well, while Tyranitar is abusable to the fullest, there is nothing left that can switch into Latias blazing fast Draco Meteors.
great video jim, one of my favourites of this series! my fave dragon gotta be the OG dnite, with his wholesome cute but epic design, and how its sets have change from gen to gen, also tera normal espeed is a fun click
I swear tfg this running lore you have going is so absolutely cracked brilliant, and is the whole reason I’ve been sticking around but you’re also just extremely knowledgeable. I’ve been here since iron mugulus, Himothy. I’ve been here since “The Money Got Different”, Himothy. I’ve been here all along. When will my day in the equestrian sun come, Himothy?!?!?
The rebellion is imminent. Horsea is unable to be reasoned with. We can only hope that Magcargo is able to stabilize the fragmented remains of the Horse Council before all is lost & anarchy is all that remains.
Magcargo has now gained access to High Horsepower, a powerful ground type move. Will it be enough to justify his admission to the horse council? Stay tuned for the update, folks.
I noticed slight echoing. I would normally say this just as a heads up incase you wanted to know about it. But I also realize this could have been a subtle troll by jim to get engagement. If so - well played sir.
I tried many different OU pokemon teams in gen 5, and the one I had the most sucess with was a 5 dragon, 1 Magnezone team. 4 of those dragons had a choice band, and their main job was to click Outrage.
Amazing video as always Mr Cool. My knowledge on how to train my dragon and the success of Magcargo gives me hope. Hope that Raichu too may see justice. Please support his fight and the other forgotten evolutions support the F.E.A thank you.
I really want to at some point see just a compilation of the different subscribe sagas of your channel, just in case I've missed something in the Magcargo Horsepower storyline
Dragon is my favourite type, and my first two favourite Pokémon were Dragonite and Garchomp. This made Steel my second favourite type for obvious reasons, my favourite Pokémon of all is now Magearna because she's the perfect partner for my dragons. I used to hate Fairies, but Magearna changed my view on that, so now I love the Dragon/Steel/Fairy core.
I agree that palkia origin are not very impressive in gen 9 Ubers, but palkia origin is a very viable special wallbreaker in Ubers UU. It can't boost its special attack but it does have agility in addition, so you can run a modest agility set. Since it's item the lustrous orb boosts its water and dragon attacks by 20%, it can output some impressive damage.
I dislike fairies because they basically outclassed psychic. Why would i run a psychic type to beat fighting types and get countered by dark types when i can just use a fairy type Pokémon and defeat them both?
FR especially when u-turn and knock off are everywhere. I think giving Psychic immunity to priority might be fun, it fits thematically and gives it a nice use case
When did the idea of a "win condition" become a thing in pokemon. I know the terms been around for like a decade at this but back in the Pokémon Labs day that was never talked about so just wondering when that became a term and philosophy in the game
The time Garchomp was in gen 4 OU was certainly something... It had the unique Property to 1v1 basically any Pokemon if holding Yache Berry, truely absurd.
Shout-out to my Rain Team Dragonite with Thunder, Hurricane, Surf, and Draco Meteor. It hit like a truck and with a surprise choice scarf it always outsped and destroyed other dragons. Miss my GOAT 💕
Jimothy, it appears to me that you have forgotten about the mega forms of Ampharos and Sceptile. I am their lawyer, and I regret to inform you that they are in the process of filing a demafamtion lawsuit against you. Have a great day.
"I think this might have enough power to one hit Tyranitar" Man, why wasn't Latios banned yet? The only thing holding it back is pretty much just Tyranitar and even then it's not guaranteed. What's worse, if Tyranitar is meant to be this all-purpose-glue and even then it's usually not enough, doesn't that mean things are going really wrong in Gen 5 OU?

This is true. Played a few games of Gen 7 OU yesterday where I 1v1'd a Heatran with my support Clefable. Truly a tragedy
I’d rather have to run three Pokémon with insomnia on every team to counter dream eater spam than ever ever have Azumarill “play rough” with me again…
The clear path forward is to have a new type that beats fairy to save us from fairy.
It should also smash and resist bug types to stay on brand.
@@andy4anSteel? Are you just talking about Steel? Do you want to give a steel weakness to bug? Are you out of your mind? Are you complete nuts? Do you really mean STEEL?
@@GrayVMhan
no, it should be a new type that's strong against fairy, dragon, bug and steel. i'm tired of those types dominating.
Jimothy could literally make a 1 hour video about the history of Magcargo and the horse council and Id drop everything to watch it
I love the lore bits, I would love full videos about the lore
For real. His narrating style is outstanding in the field
We are all waiting for that, to be fair
Magcargo has now achieved Higher Horsepower after acquiring true horse legs. This is insane.
High horsepower was achieved after acquiring true horse legs. HIGHER horsepower is achieved after ripping a bong.

The extreme speed at which I clicked on this, incredible
Only used quick attack sadly :(
Sucker
Luckily I opened UA-cam to this, so I was able to use fake out
I bet the early video members used upper hand
what's extremespeed?

Now imagine if Lickitung was a dragon type….
That... actually doesn't NOT make sense
The move Lick should be given an extra 100 Base Power when Lickitung uses it.
I think Lickilicky should also get +100 to its attack and +50 HP
I really need someone to make a compilation of all of the Jimothy Cool lore. I'm more invested in this than I think I realized
I only know about the Iron Mugulus arc and the Horse Council arc...
@@Joker22593 "Arc" lmfao
That bothers me a lot considering those two are my favorite. He even talked about altaria. Why skip over those two?
Do you ever think its weird how dragonite never got any gimmicks? no mega, special z move, dynamax, or regional forms. It did get a great ability tbf but thats it really

No dragalge or goodra mentioned despite the fact that they definitely had their place in their respective metagames and were totally viable.
Dragon is a beloved Pokémon type. With some of the most successful and iconic creatures in the series to its name.
This is a difficult type to dislike
Dragon types always felt like this mythical type. Even with the lack of dragon types and moves in the earlier gens their presence still felt strong.
2:02 Two Jims. This is insane.
Lanturn should also get to be an honorary horse for helping out like that. What a bro #lanturngang
I'm hoping for a surprise appearance during the climax of the civil war.
"Uh oh, in comes Lanturn."
I'll vote for chinchou but not lanturn
I'm pretty sure "what if a dragon was a bike" is the core concept for an entire Yugioh series
Thanks for adding Ubers in these videos.
1:00:41 Fun fact, they're banned from NatDex actually.

Can’t wait for the 1hr+ ground type vid talking about just Lando-T
The horse council stuff cracks me up 😂
My favorite part about dragon type is that it contains mons that don't even look like dragons
Some even look like horses.
Those are my favorite ones. You got bat dragons, leafy sea dragons, slug dragons… even draconic wyrm-worms in apples!
And it doesn't include mons that absolutely look like dragons. Truly a type that breaks stereotypes
I look forward to the conclusion to this series: Arceus in Competitive Pokemon, in which Jim explains the viability of every type of Arceus.
