Wolfey: Who would win? You, or three proven tournament winning Pokémon? Hippowdon: Well, if Sand Tomb were to miss, Urshifu doesn’t get a 3 turn sleep, and Sand Tomb were to end, they would cause me a bit of trouble. Wolfey: But would you lose? Hippowdon: Nah, I’d win.
That's funny, just the other day I caught Lobby complaining that Frosmoth was bad and needed a new evo or something! Did you use snow defense boost/aurora veil at all, or just quiver dance?
@@pokeinator7834 Okay, but when Protect is good in singles it's WAY slower and more of an avoid-the-fight thing than in VGC where it's doing all sorts of things to get you back in the action (aside from sometimes stalling Trick Room or whatever). Actually, just in general, I would say singles is way less aggressive than VGC lol Like, in this very video, he comments on how long one of the battles is (because this is way too slow of a team for VGC), and it's just nowhere close to what's considered a long singles battle.
@@kaloncpu57 yeah definitely but vgc games don’t feel like a battle like it goes by too quick HO vs HO in singles is the perfect length for me,fast and fun but even up to BO vs balanced, I think singles is the more enjoyable than doubles Now when we get to balanced vs balanced and the demonic stall and semi stall teams,definitely singles is too slow and grindy and it needs improvement there,but nothing is perfect outside of god
Wolfed using essentially meme teams for online fun to keep from burning out, while actually using meta powerhouses in in person tournaments is going to be a problem for everyone else
I totally forgot they nerfed Soul Dew so bad. Used to be a built in Calm Mind, now it’s just Dragon Fang and Twisted Spoon in the same item. How the mighty have fallen
@@covelt The team revolves around hippoudon spamming slack off while stalling for turns of sandstorm and sand tomb. Registeel and gliscor are bulky setup sweepers, rotom and latios are support/pivots, and magmar is there to try to slow the opponent down and disrupt. This is a smogon gen V bulky offense team being played in gen 9 VGC By contrast, vgc teams usually have a hyper offensive pokemon and a support pokemon on the field at all times, it's a fundamentally different team structure & gameplay style *Short version:* Smogon battles are really long (~70 turns), VGC battles are short (~10 turns)
@@FlamingZelda3no? Smogon is usually singles, vgc is always doubles - that’s the only difference in turn number, doubles is just faster and doesn’t allow stall nearly as much
@@coveltsingles (what smogon commonly uses) has a lot of stall - Wolfe using mons which live a long time and extend the game, not quite stall but very bulky - singles meta type team rather than doubles meta
I guess it’s because you can still move to different spots on the ground or something lol. Then again the Pokémon should just be able to manipulate the same in the air haha
The amount of times he goes "The problem is-" then remembers the team he's using and how screwed he is and just goes "well there are a lot of problems" is hilarious
Hey Wolf. Pleasure meeting you in Orlando earlier today. The patience and grace you showed taking pictures and talking to so many fans was so cool and a great example of how to handle fame and attention. Well done sir. Keep doing what you're doing.
Set 1 game 3 was genuinely some of the most amazing Pokémon I’ve ever seen. I’m kinda teary eyed afterwards. If I’d have played as well as your opponent there and still lost, I’d salute you for the great match. Truly the world champ difference 1:40:34 THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY! THIS HIPPO IS UNDISPUTED GOAT OF YOUR 2013 TEAM LMFAO
Even though I said it in the previous livestream, I want to thank you again for being able to compete with you and I feel honored by that. Thank you for all your videos, it has helped me a lot in learning to play vgc. Hope you will continue to spread it to more people like me. Thank you very much !
At 10:55 it's me, it's sad that Wolfey's team is a difficult lead so I can bring Gardevoir to fight and I'm quite sad and regretful that I can't let her on stream :
Wolfey, I just wanted to say that I just made it into great ball tier on the in game ladder for the first time in huge part thanks to your videos, which is a big accomplishment for me as someone who only built my first team a week ago! Competitive pokemon felt so complicated and hard to get into until I found your channel, you do an amazing job of explaining everything and making it seem fun. I'm having a blast practicing in game and on showdown, so thank you for introducing vgc to me and so many other people in an easy to understand way. ❤
The stream for this tournament was the first Wolfe stream I’ve tuned into, and let me tell you guys, that Hippo clutch was insanely hype to watch live with the rest of chat
Wolfey at the beginning of the video: "Even the world champ difference can only take me so far" Also wolfey: causally wins a 1v3 with hippowdon while getting unlucky with misses
Urshifu: Why won't you die!? Hippowdon: Slack off, son! But seriously, that entire fight with Hippowdown destroying 3 meta mons was a huge hype moment that had me grinning.
Wolfe's First Video This Year: no more bad pokemon, I play to win Wolfe's last several videos: I am using literal garbage Me: I am glad he is having fun :)
when I saw you streaming this I was worried you wouldn’t do well enough to constitute a video but I saw the hippowdon clip on Twitter and I just knew. Another day, another banger from Wolfe!!!
24:30 "The problem is...well, there's a lot of problems" he's just like mr fr fr. Appreciate you makin this competitive Pokemon stuff so everyone can understand and appreciate it :)
It's neat that you resurrected the team. One thing I love in your content is how you're willing to use Pokemon that nobody else considered and take them in a new direction. It's creative and resourceful. Of course any World Champ who can find victory with an underdog Pokemon or an unconventional strat is going to have some absolutely terrible team attempts. And instead of being embarrased and hiding it, it's part of your story. You learned important lessons that directly influenced your strategies moving forward, and most importantly, the setback didn't stop you from being creative or resourceful.
0:28 Whenever I make a weird team in hopes of confounding an opponent, I’m worried the opponent will just be mildly confused and then sweep the whole thing easily.
Whats funny to me during the start was that during the 2012 finals Wolfe lost to Ray then when he pointed out his 2013 performance he was right next to Ray on the 26th place lmao
I have never seen an ad read drag the sponsor so hard without actually crossing any lines. also I think I've drastically underestimated how many tournaments are going on since it seems like there's a new one of these videos every couple weeks.
Some of Wolfe's vids are about large in person tournaments, others are about online tournaments which may or may not be sponsored by game freak (depends on the tournament). Usually if Wolfe is live talking over the match its an online tournament, meanwhile if its an official broadcast does an analysis of the match while a re-creation of the match takes place in the background. Also, Wolfe brings off-meta strategies into online tournaments, but has stated he's going to be bringing more conventional Pokémon into in-person tournaments.
People watching the pachirisu world championship: When someone brings a pokemon that isn't played a lot, you should be scared Wolfey: Uhm about that........
In 2034 were going to watch "back in 2024, I tried to redeem my pokémon team for 2013, but came just short. Can I finally make these bargain basement pokémon win a competition?"
“Why is this team so bad? The thumbnail shows like three different OU staples of old, how could it be-“ “Oh. Oh NO. That Magmar is not cooking, it’s just a hunk of charcoal.”
Just wanted you too know Wolfey, I saw you today at the Orlando Convetion center and honestly I was at a lost for words. I wanted to say something but I didnt know what. You're ccool and I like your content! Thank you for the videos!
BTW I just want ya'll to know Wolfey has singlehandedly made me interested in Pokémon Competitive formats to the point I am on Showdown (mainly because I sadly don't have the time or resources to do it in the actual game 😅) and I love watching all of Wolfey's videos
This cam setup is incredible. The graininess. The oversaturated red lips. The one-tone black on shirt, hair, chair, beard, AND glasses. Makes me nostalgic
I never knew that the official status condition for moves like Sand Tomb was ‘bound’. It makes sense considering the move Bind and the Binding Band item but it took me twenty three years to learn this 😅
Just wanted to say : watching your tourney videos has made me start getting into teammaking in Showdown doubles. Been having some surprisingly good results so far
"Do you miss Sand Tomb because you're Hippowdon, or are you Hippowdon because you miss Sand Tomb?" "Among Smogon and VGC, I alone am the slacking one."
"While Gliscor has been a menace in single battles in the past-" In the present* The moment this dirty scorpion bat stepped in, he became the king of singles, to the point of being banned and then released back once the second dlc dropped, just to keep being a threat to society 😭
Love watching your videos! It is amazing to see that even you grew as a player through all the years you played and very inspirational! Hope you keep doing what you do! 😄
8:20 This is crazy. This might be the first time I've heard Wolfe even acknowledge the existence of singles. I was already surprised when he showed footage from pokeaim, but this was shocking. It feels really nice though, throughout every video whenever Wolfe says a pokemon is bad I've always been thinking "Well at least mention that they're great in singles." It got to the point where I assumed it had something to do with his affiliation with the pokemon company, really lovely to see it finally happen though!
@@pokeinator7834 I'm just referring to his main channel videos over the course of the past year or so. The most notable example for me was when Wolfe made a video about Exeggutor and specifically said that it's "never been good", when Exeggutor is one of the best pokemon in gen 1, from before doubles even became the official pokemon format. There are less jarring examples, but it's absolutely been a thing. Again, it's not like he has any obligation to mention singles since he's a vgc channel, but it does feel nice when giving an overview of the capabilities of specific pokemon.
I didn't pause the video so I had no idea when you'd get the third loss, that Hippowdon 1v3 clutch was the coolest shit I've ever seen. Make another team with the hippo. The hippo is beautiful
How am I so fast? Hey Wolfie just wanna say been watching you for years now. Back when i was 12 my brother showed me your world championship match and I've learned about competitive pokemon so much since then. Even Tho I just play competitive pokemon as timepass i really love it. So thank you for that.

he talks about singles occasionally, im pretty sure hes even collabed w blunder for a couple videos
Man, i love the “soaring the sky” theme from ORAS… well done during the Latios section
World Champ Difference
last battle was marco silva, the plot thickens...
the 1v3 with Hippowdon was insane!!!
"Turns out, nobody needed to see it coming, because it was awful!", 😂😂😂, tickled me that one 😂
You simply did not have enough WCD™ at the time to use the team properly
I didn't pause the video so I had no idea when you'd get the third loss, that Hippowdon 1v3 clutch was the coolest shit I've ever seen. Make another team with the hippo. The hippo is beautiful
How am I so fast? Hey Wolfie just wanna say been watching you for years now. Back when i was 12 my brother showed me your world championship match and I've learned about competitive pokemon so much since then. Even Tho I just play competitive pokemon as timepass i really love it. So thank you for that.
“Hippowdon and Gliscor are weak”
Ah yes, Hippowdon and Gliscor, known for their terrible, absolutely horrendous attack stats of… 112 and 95
