      It can wall Dragons a bit but also it has no good healing and gets Worn down easily. A top tier defensive utility Pokemon but I wouldn't quite call it a Wall with much longevity.
      Also it's immoral

    Hilariously, one could argue Chansey’s immunity to Body Slam paralysis is a debuff, exclusively for itself.
    A paralyzed Chansey cannot be slept or frozen (the latter often being fished for in Chansey mirror matches) and it cannot be hit with the rare, but still present, toxic. Sometimes you would rather switch Chansey in to get paralyzed over your Tauros or another important ’mon, just to insulate it from other status.

    • @funkymachine
      @funkymachine 8 місяців тому +12

      This is true, but it's definitely categorically a rework and mostly positive for chansey.
      paralysis dropping turns completely ruins chances to wall certain targets, a paralyzed chansey often can get "haxxed" by psychic spamming mons or reflect sets can fail as they need to get the reflect off t1 of entry.

    I should also add in that, in Gen 2, Cloyster's scariest tool (besides spikes) is explosion. It has to sacrifice rapid spin to run it thanks to some egg move stuff, but it's worth it. It actively threatens Snorlax meaning the big man can't just stay in on a Cloy and can also punish any switch-ins provided you get a good read

    @Your_LocalWizard 8 місяців тому

    What I like about Garganacl as a wall is that it functions more like an anti wall instead of a pure wall itself, everything it has is perfectly tuned to punish overly defensive strats that were used in the past. It can't be statused and its signature move does massive damage to steel and water the two types that were basically the mascot of defense. However, Garg is tricky to use as a pure wall due to its typing making it hard to find switch-in opportunities. It really needs both a turn to switch in and a turn to set up before you enter the garg engine, and those turns are usually against other walls

    I’m not sure if this has been said before or not, but I personally believe Swampert and other Pokémon such as Carracosta should get shore up as I kinda believe it would fit with them. I mean Swampert has two dex entries stating it makes it’s nest on beautiful beaches, and Carracosta is literally “the prototurtle” Pokémon and turtles (at least sea turtles) are well known for building their nests on land and covering their eggs with sand (the Japanese name for shore up is literally sand gather). That’s just my opinion though, would appreciate any feedback on this

    Regarding snorlax, aren't "tanks" an archtype in Pokemon? Slow units with massive bulk that can hit hard. Tanks share some traits with walls. However, Tanks have less longetivity and are more prone to be chipped down. Walls have access to consistent healing, but less consistent (if any) way of dishing damage

    47:12 i can't believe im doing this but im gonna defend toxapex lol. everything you said is 100% true, but at the same time it isn't anymore broken than the offensive threats in the tier. kartana, ash greninja, etc were all way too powerful considering their lack of weaknesses, and z moves were a whole other mess. the balance of the game in general sucked so toxapex needed to be a monster to hold defensive cores together. the only actual annoying part was how easily it made progress, but half the tier had volt switch, u turn, knock off, scald, rocks, etc so i never understand why defensive mons get all the hate when offensive pokemon were just as irritating by using their insane offensive pressure to use the same free progress moves. gen 9 is the result of that hate, gamefreak listened to us and removed a lot of these broken things from defensive mons, but offense got to keep all of it. so the game is just as painful but now it's twice as chaotic, with a bunch of terrifying threats getting in for free, clicking these annoying moves, then nuking through resists

      Defensive Pokémon get more hate than offensive ones because stall is not just a viable game strategy, but also a test of patience, which most people do not have. Obviously defensive walls aren’t just present on stall, but people complain about defensive mons because they hate stall. If we hated hyper offense just as much, things might be different.

      @@helpgirlimhavingalifecrisis i do get why ppl don't like them i just think it's misplaced. i couldn't care less if the game takes 20 turns or 200, i'll have fun if both me and my opponent are forced to think about our moves, rather than making a series of safe clicks to see who's matchup is better. modern stall is very brainless im aware of that, but modern offense is just as bad. pivoting makes it way too easy to position your threats, boots let you switch around for free, and the stab convergence has gotten way out of hand l (im talking about how 99% of modern pokemon can use dual stab + 1 coverage move to hit everything, and usually nuke through resists anyway)

    RBY Rhydon does use Rest every now and then in more defensive oriented teams when you want longevity against Zapdos and Jolteon, also helps against non-ice beam Chansey since it can pp stall it.

    I’m very grateful for the fact that in the global challenge I can use Urshifu against gliscor in some formats there just because it goes through protect and the surging strikes variant does super effective damage against it which allows me to deal with it easier. In regulation h it’s much more difficult to deal with when urshifu is banned.

    5:18 Rest in gen 1 is not as bad as you made it seem. You sleep for only one turn and on the next turn you wake up without being able to attack like you said, so it's about the same as in following generation. The only flaw is that you're vulnerable to status for one extra turn, which only matters for freeze really, so it's not significant imo
