@@notsocooldude7720 | There was no rhyme or reason for what Pokemon got -Mega Evolution- Cancer back in gen-6. What makes you think they'd develop a pattern by now?
@@RaceBandit There kinda was. Very rarely did they add megas to mons from the previous 1-2 generations.

I swear, Pro Pokemon players are geniuses. Was there ever a tournament where a player brought nearly a full team that was completely off meta and ended up winning or doing really well?
I got a Galar Farfetch'd, and she had a leek, so in less than 5 minutes, I fought a team yell grunt just up the road, and evolved Hela before the other guy had to fight me. I saw his face fade from stark and confident to stark and regretting being an npc
I still feel like the fake out + swords dance because he predicted Groudon to protect in the finals might be still be the best play of his career, but maybe I am hype biased
But how can you have a Primal Kyogre and a Mega Rayquaza at the same time? Or the other guy having a Primal Groudon and a Primal Kyogre at the same time?
My best play was online in masterball Gen 8 singles. I switched into my Eiscue, who had dive and was able to clutch stall a dynamax and attack first next turn because of Ice Face. He sweeped. I can't remember what pokemon I was "facing"😅, but I ran the regular: Belly Drum, Liquidation Icicle Crash . . . and Dive.

@@groundh0gday200 yeah but gen 5 was mostly known as the generation of the deagons. Meanwhile Gen 6 was pure weather because of groudon, kyogre, and rayquaza

this short literally proved that it was very skill intensive to win in the gen6 primal weathers meta. i don’t see how it’s depressing when there’s a lot of strategy that goes into getting the field in your control

Everytime I feel good about winning in ladder, I remember how to be a top level pokemon professional.

Like, you'd be able to have a good guess of what kind of nature and EV spread an enemy has just depeneding on their team or how fast they are or by how much damage they take from a move.

Hey Whimsicott was there too for like 5 seconds. 😂
Just goin spin spin spinny spin spin

This brings me back. This was around the time I first started watching VGC. Good times, happy memories.
The ORAS Elite 4 music was a nice touch for this video.

Had to watch twice to understand how insane this play was. Loving the competitive history shorts!
HOOOOOOOOOOOOLYYY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTT
That the vet experience of a world champ: he can read opponents like an open book
This is like premoving in chess against Magnus and it working. A definite anime moment
If you do that to Magnus, he bursts into tears, accuses you of cheating and runs away.
as much as I love open team sheets, the element of surprise with a play like this is so much more fun
I swear, Pro Pokemon players are geniuses. Was there ever a tournament where a player brought nearly a full team that was completely off meta and ended up winning or doing really well?
there's a guy dominating the ladder with dewgong and gloom right now somehow
Eject button shenanigans are always so hype imo
Hitmontop just being the chad that he is won you the game
Seeing your last shorts, I was waiting this short. Really well played!
So that’s how Groudon stood a chance on his stupid little island, he evaporated kyogres water
A weather strategy... nice. That is a really good play. I've done it before, but it's confusing for me. 😅
Can we just take a moment to commend how humble this man is.
I've been looking for that comment.
Congrats just like everybody else in Gen6 competitive, you mega evolved Rayquaza😂
No hate Wolf just still mad bout how broken that meta was😂
I can hear the meteorologists crying
Big 🧠 moves.
1000 IQ play.
Ok, but “who has weather ball” was pretty damn good too
Competitive Pokémon should be an Olympic sport
This is the first time I ever heard of Eject Button working in a competitive battle!😮
Wow wolfeys pov got be insanely good because i can only see 1/5 of the short
As much as Wolfe jokes, that’s the world champ difference baby
I would love to hear the commentary on this play
Truly the world champ difference at play.

That was a good play
I miss old Red & Blue days
Pokemon be like this in real life then in the game you jisg use 1 ability as your starter and the entire game crumbles before you
The spongebob reference is kinda brilliant
This will forever be why I can't do comp
Bro Broke his opponent's ankles in a pokemon battle
lol
imagine allowing people to run 2 primals and mega rayquaza the people involved in that tournament are insane
hitmontop be like "MOM! he hit me!"
But how can you have a Primal Kyogre and a Mega Rayquaza at the same time? Or the other guy having a Primal Groudon and a Primal Kyogre at the same time?

Hitmontop being the MVP for doing nothing
When a chess player play pokemon
Nice
Wow
* insert obama awarding himself a medal meme *
you could only do shit like this back when open team sheets weren’t a thing
Truly the world champ difference
That's too much for me to remember😂 i kinda get it but kind of don't. Switching pokemon over and over again?
Holy moly
i had to watch that 3 times to understand
What an athlete! On par with Kobe and Babe Ruth!
What was the hitmontop set ? Is hes reason to live was litteraly just so rayquaza can come back ?
Maybe not the best play, but nothing will top the swords dance on the protect
This trascends gigabrain
Thought this was Pokémon battle yu-gi-oh card come from
15D chess. Incredible big brain!
Biggest brain play ever

"This might be the best play I ever made.
I Mega Evolved Rayquaza."
That's the entire Gen 6 metagame in two sentences.
True 😂
It would’ve been hysterical if that’s where the video ended 😂😂😂
Lmao or mega mewtwo x/y doesn't matter😂
“And then I clicked Swords Dance on Mega Rayquaza.”
Not really, Mega Rayquaza wasn’t even the most popular Restricted pick.
"I mega evolve Rayquaza." Yeah, I'd say that's generally the best play.
This is, unironically,
a World Champ difference

Is this canonical pokemon lore how raquyaza defeated groudon and kyogre
