Players in VGC: Dynamax is a tool I really need to think about carefully in order to secure the largest advantage I can! Durant players turn 1: HaHa BiGaNt
extreme odst and mega does? Think about it a mega lasts as long as the mon is alive. Dynamax/Gigantimax only lasts 3 turns so you need to carefully think when and how to make the best use of the 3 turns. Mega all you need to worry about is who to use and how to keep them alive.
Pokemon would be a pretty easy game to cast but that said it could also be really boring. These caster are actually really good and bounce of each other really well. every time one of them finished a point the other one would pick it up. great to see good esports casting
Working from home. Left UA-cam on. Went AFK. Came back hours later to this video. Had no idea something like this could be so entertaining. I actually learned things.
RIP 2020 VGC :( I was so excited for it loved this format! now we dont get to see what the DLC brings to the meta. I hope they keep pushing the online events
I LOVE the first year of a new generation where the meta is just the regional dex, and no legendaries. It's the most interesting era of each meta by far, and I lose all interest after it widens to national. Matches become less strategic, and the opposite effect of expanding happens where teams are less diverse (because the legendaries invalidate most Pokemon being OP). I always come back to these videos and get hyped about 2023's meta with Scarlet + Violet!
If he brought out T-Tar, the Rhyperior gets a special defense boost for sandstorm being up. It would help Wolfe more than it would have helped Andrew unfortunately
I went to watch this video just to know how pokemon is doing, had no idea pokemons could get big like that, makes me happy i stopped playing even though it was my childhood. Now i'm just into Temtem which i hope someday it gets big like pokemon.
The real 4000 iq move was to start the same two Pokemon three times After he ran it back the first time, Wolfe was just like "there's no way he's gonna do it twice" and the mad lad followed through
@@nicholasbouchard7077 The timer was 20 minutes instead of 15 minutes (iirc), and they said nothing about it, since it's usually 15 minutes Wolfe assumed it was and tried to play for a timer win, but it was not, and he didn't win.
Also not only was it spammed but it hits 2 Pokémon everytime. At that point it makes sense it hit something. Now missing a 95 percent chance to hit and losing cus of it. Thats super depressing
I mean when you see milotic in masters finals. You kill without questions. It’s really like if you can’t kill it in the first five around. It will be extremely hard
TBH this is the first championship that have decent commentators who sound like they actually know the game, unlike other franchises who hire people who don't know the basics of the game.
one thing i like about pokemon is that they make it so there are so many different viable pokemon and moves and strategies, you rarely ever see two opponents using the same Pokémon, its really neat.
0:56 RHYPERIOR AND DUSCLOPS?! THAT WAS 2 OUT OF 6 OF MY DREAM VERSION OF THE FIRST TEAM I HAD WHEN I WON MY FIRST LEAGUE (In Platinum)! 6:45 YES! RHYPERIOR!
@@luxrayfan4057 Beause i didn't had friends so i couldn't evolve it. I beat Cynthia using Garchomp, Rhydon, Dusclops, Tentacruel, Infernape and Giratina. Dusclops was my tank with his ice punch any time her garchomp one shot..... anyone else A giratina and garchomp if their were slower than her garchomp BOOM dragon rushed to death. the others? earthquaked to death. dusclops was the one who was able o survive at least 1 or 2 hits (although it was always a teamwork effort until i finally won because if i remmeber correctly her garchomp also had crunch). DUsclops just became better through passage of time thanks to Eviolite
28:10 So first both Arcanine and Milotic got double knocked-out in the beginning of the first round, and now Milotic gets a double knock-out at the end of the second round. How poetic!
They should use holograms and projectors to make the game visible like real life colosseum and all the audience is watching the hologram projections of the Pokemon doing the moves that would be sick
The dusclops I use is a careful nature (special attack - special defense +) eviolite, pain split, will o wisp, substitute, and shadow punch. I had always loved this guy. I usually run a adamant nature tyranitar with the sand stream ability and giving it an assault vest so it was never one shot which I was very happy about of course haha. And one more to mention I loved using was my lapras with freeze dry, ice shard for priority which made life a little easier...anywhom I could go on but I always had loved fucking with teams from 1st and 2nd gen
Player: Does a move that makes the opposing Pokémon lose half of its health. Announcer: “ So that attack’s going to do a tiny bit of damage to the Pokémon. “
I really want to play this game a become a champion but I am not able to purchase a Nintendo switch or lite . It's expensive in India. 😭😭 Although these players are awesome
8:17 I CANNOT comprehend how big this man's brain is, all I was thinking is about hitting the sylveon here and fainting because durant wants to protect but then togekiss would struggle against it, MY MAN WOLFE COMPLETELY PLAYED HIS OPPONENT INSTEAD, switch, sack dead meat and switch back in THIS MAN IS OTHERWORLDLY
I'm new to competitive battling and i've been hatching timid nature Dreepy. I got one that has best in every stat besides special attack in which it has fantastic. Does anyone know if I should keep breeding or do you think it's fine?

Yo that game 2 win by Andrew was CLUTCH. That hyper voice by Sylveon in game 3 was also insane..

I know! I finally talked myself into joining the local league after fighting the anxiety for over a decade. :(

@@johb3930 well, the unic reason in my point of view is that you can "cheat" by using a damage calculator but that's all about it

What😅
GoldenArrow It really wasn’t. His opponent was him fantastically.
Poor Dracovish!
My man puts up a Tyranitar plushie but doesn't actually choose to use Tyranitar in any of the three battles.
That’s what we call the good ‘ol bait and switch.
If he brought out T-Tar, the Rhyperior gets a special defense boost for sandstorm being up. It would help Wolfe more than it would have helped Andrew unfortunately
This battle was awesome. The opponent held on till the last moment
As long as a muddy Water hits like they have been doing
Me: yeah it's almost like he got accuracy boost
Having listened to Wolfey comment battles, I wish the commentators knew a bit more about the intricacies of the meta
It would be more entertaining for those of us who know what's going on... but I feel its a little far off for the company to want to pursue
Link?
This video is old but I did enjoy watching these two players go against each other, good job Andrew Ding
I played back in 2015 and it's sick to see Wolfe still ruling the game
oh, yes, the match that lets us know that the timer is broken LUL
So much more fun then watching people play with cards, who else is using this as background noise playing another Pokémon game?
Card games usually are more fun to play than to watch

So wolf tried to win using time and not skill???? When has he ever done that??? Lmfao
Jose Morales doesn’t matter if he’s done it before or not it’s clear it’s what he was attempting
Sad
*sees Wolfe using trick room* “you’ve betrayed me for the last time”
A 6% chance to crit cost Wolfe that final match. Feels bad, man.
3 matches, spam hypervoice, chances are he will crit eventually
He has been Lucky in the first match, so i Think it's fair
Also not only was it spammed but it hits 2 Pokémon everytime. At that point it makes sense it hit something. Now missing a 95 percent chance to hit and losing cus of it. Thats super depressing
Davide Armellini It’s always fair when luck is involved. Luck is impossible to predict or rig.
People out here acting like Wolfe doesn't get lucky.
Hes using reuniclus, hes already my favorite competitive player
This is cool as all Getout. It treats this like a legitimate sport & Makes me wanna get back in the game!

It's a best of three format where you bring 6 Pokémon but choose 4 before a battle
