Chilly Reception is a good move in singles. It is a slow pivot move, meaning that unlike normal switching which always happens first, you cannot hurt the incoming Pokémon, only the Slowking (which usually has regenerator anyways). It also gets rid of sun, debuffing Protosynthesis pokemon.
Really? No one gets the Slowbro knowing Chilly Reception joke? It's a Refrence to Pokemon 2000, where we have a talking Slowking making bad jokes while complaining about the cold.
This is the most likely explanation, but I also like to think it's a double reference to Snowdrake from Undertale, since the wording is very similar to a line during that fight. I've noticed a few references like that snuck in elsewhere, and maybe it's nod to Toby Fox's contributions to the game, if it is a reference at all
I think Slowking should have had the ability to talk in all the games, particularly with following POkemon, kinda sucks that they threw that idea out of the window
Chilling reception was created because teleport was removed from slowkings move list, gen 8 teleport was incredibly good on defensive pokemon allowing responsive switches, along with facilitating slush rush strategies in singles.
@@TheMurrmursonbottleI use it on regular Slowking to tank a hit, then switch to a frail and/or slow Pokémon. It also activates Regenerator, so Slowking can switch into another hit in the future.
7:30 Chilly Reception is REALLY good for Slowking competitively because it allows Slowking to pivot out and gets to heal from Regenerator. And Galarian Slowking ESPECIALLY benefits from this since unlike Slowking it can't learn Teleport due to it not being able to be transferred. And even without Ice types it's worth using because it won't harm your team.
Chilly Reception is a great move It allows you to switch at the end of the turn (not exposing the mon you are sending out to attacks) while also setting up snow If you pair it with slush rush, like beartic, you have a nice setup Plus, Slowking's Regenerator ability makes so he benefits tremendously from the pivoting
That's actually cool to know. I had to call my husband in the room when that one came up because he's the one person I know who would go to GREAT lengths to get a bad joke about bad jokes into a game he was working on.
Mortal Spin is actually a prevalent move in competitive singles due to stealth rocks and spikes (both versions) being decently common, especially with the introduction of clodsire that can carry all of these moves. Mortal Spin functions like rapid spin while also spreading poison to an enemy pokemon.
@RoxsiTheFox "Mortal Spin functions like Rapid Spin, clearing the area of Stealth Rocks (and similar) while also spreading poison to an enemy pokemon." Is what it should say. Though I do wonder if it would work well with poison heal or guts in doubles. Or perhaps an item/ability that doesn't allow secondary effects?
16:45 - A hard Quash defender here: Quash is an EXCELLENT move to deal against both super fast (Flutter Mane) or Trick Room (Ursaluna) mons, if used by a Prankster user such as Sableye I've literally managed to reach Master Rank easily with my Sableye using it
I've also found Quash helpful in the 4v1 battles of Dynamax Adventures and Tera Raids, since your pokemon hitting before the raid boss can make or break a battle.
Yes! With Sableye it's especially good. It allows your heavy hitters to attack pokemon that would usually outsized them, which tend to also be fragile so you have a good chance of taking it out.
Spotlight actually does have a niche use in that if your other Pokémon uses a move like outrage that hits a random target, you can force it to hit a specific target with spotlight
Actually, chilly reception is not only good, but it does make sense for only slowking to know it. In pokemon 2000, a talking slowking is in the middle of a snowstorm where he says: "i could really use some pants", so it DOES make sense, albeit in kind of a weird way.
Chilly reception is actually a REALLY good move in singles. Being a pivot move on a bulky, slow, pokemon already makes it great, since it allows another pokemon to come in without taking damage, but the hail also combines very well with pokemon such as baxcalibur.
@@dawnsbunearyIt's not the kind of pokemon that often gets OHKOed... And also, it often clicks chilly reception as the opponent switches, which lets it see what the opponent swapped into and pick the switch-in accordingly.
Yeah there’s a decent number of these moves that can be used on showdown random battles teams such as axe kick on lokix, chilly reception on kantonian slowing, lunar blessing on cress in doubles, mortal spin on glimmora, and quash on doubles sableye
@@MrMisutei cresselia moves after ursaluna in trick room, so it cures the burn after ursaluna gets its attack off, and then ursaluna doesn't take any burn damage.
Ok I'm actually in love with the move names for the Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee games lmao. Imagine getting knocked tf out with moves called "Baddy Bad" and "Glitzy Glow"
Yeah you can tell that Mikey is at his heart a casual, which is okay he makes entertaining content. But he has some bonehead takes because he never looks into how these Pokemon are actually used when people play other people, which I think is a much better metric then how good they are against the stupid AI. He also said lokix wasn't a very good Pokemon
i've heard about hold hands from a tumblr post i saw like 4 years ago that was also absolutely baffled by its existence. i love how funny some of these moves are i don't care how bad some of these are. chilly reception is the funniest move ever conceived
there's a lot of moves i could think of being pretty obscure, like.. Me First, False Surrender, Forest's Curse, Trick-or-Treat, Smelling Salts, Bonemerang, Grass Whistle, Kinesis, Strange Steam, Chip Away, Electrify, Flower Shield, Hold Back, Mat Block, Luster Purge, Happy Hour, Mind Read, Mud Bomb, Mud Sport, Psycho Shift, Rolling Kick, Rock Wrecker, Raging Fury, Sky Uppercut, Secret Power, Spike Cannon, Stuff Cheeks, Topsy-Turvy, Trump Card, Wring Out, Zing Zap, Snore, Light of Ruin, and Laser Focus and also if z-moves count... Genesis Supernova, Splintered Stormshards, and Stoked Sparksurfer
Lunar Blessing is similar to the move Jungle Healing, the signature move of Zarude (which is also obscure), however Lunar Blessing Cresselia is dominating VGC right now so it's not that obscure after all.
Spotlight might actually work well in situations where your second Pokemon is using Outrage/Petal Dance/etc since it chooses a random target. You could ensure that it hits the Pokemon that you want it to.
I was thinking ab pokerogue too! That's where ik some of these moves from, axe kick, most of the silly named ones, cummupance, n a couple more I've seen there too
Wish they’d kept Spotlight as another way to counter redirection apart from Stalwart Also as many have pointed out Chilly Reception is used a lot, and it’ll be even more viable when Alolan ice types are added in the DLC
How did you not know about Pika Papow and Veevee Volley? Above the attack button Pikachu or Eevee *shake* the controller. Also it might just be that I have ADHD but I found it so hard NOT to shake the controller!! I also think it was funny how people were like “There’s a secret multiplayer mode?!?!?” While me and my aunt found it immediately and loved it because we like co-op games so a co-op Pokémon game was really cool! (Even if it made every battle really easy 😅)
Another thing to note about it is that in Japanese the word "Samui" means cold but can also mean corny when referring to humor. So basically it tells a cold joke.
Chilly reception is actually pretty useful atm since Galarian Slowking uses it to pivot and then buff Baxcalibur. Also it's likely a reference to the Slowking from Pokémon 2000
Ionization and ion deluge should be a weather condition that makes every normal move and normal pokemon into electric types that would be amazing to have that kind of effect in battle. Bouffant electric stab head charge.
Quash is actually relatively prevalent in Gen 8 VGC, I played Gen 8 VGC and I saw it quite a lot and it’s very useful as well, an annoying move to come across especially with sableye
Three of these, Mortal Spin, Chilling Reception, and Tidy up, are often on random team movesets on Showdown, so they may be better known. Also I feel like Hold Hands and Celebrate may have a bit of the Millard Fillmore effect, being known for being obscure.
Funny thing about celebrate and the other event exclusive moves, I'm sure people have already said this but in gen 7 singles it was actually really good because with a normalium Z celebrate would give you plus one in every stat so it was used in very niche scenarios with even mons
I feel like event exclusive moves should be a regular move, but with a different name and animation. That way it could be used, but wouldn’t lock a really good move behind events
Spotlight was actually a really cool move that i used back in a day. You COULD target your ally who could be immune to potential attacks, hide behind a sub, being super bulky/resistant or using the move Metal Burst/Counter or Mirror Coat. It could redirect dangerous moves while your ally could heal you while tanking hits. It could also make you ignore redirections from Follow Me (it was anti-follow me basically giving your ally Stallwart or Properell Tail ability for a turn). Considering how common even up to these days the move Follow Me is, i am surprised this move has been removed from the games, instead of being given to MORE pokemon. Because very few pokemon could learn it and i think that was detrimental.
Spotlight could have been useful in battle royal too, a way to gang up two opponents on another one, even tho you're still better off using global moves like earthquake or surf
I actually use maushold in pokemon showdown after encountering it with tidy up and population bomb in random battles, the combo of those moves shocked me after using it and has made me love maushold as a great pvp pokemon
Yeah it’s actually stupidly broken, in OU, you can give it an accuracy raising item to almost ensure a full 10 hits with pop bomb or in AG, you can give it king’s rock and annoy people
Mortal spin has been a very common move in VGC, the same as lunar blessing since Cresselia was permitted in VGC. Also Quash on those pokemon you said was pretty good, speed control in VGC is super important. But I understand most people don't play VGC.
6:59 Chilly reception is such a based move concept in-universe tho. Sloking remembering a terrible joke only to tell it later and NO ONE LAUGHS is absolutely perfect
I knew about Steamroller because I used it with my Whirlipede on my White 2 playthrough which I beat with my favourite pokemon: Servine, Whirlipede, Mienfoo, Beartic, Swoobat and Vibrava. It's a shame that it can not learn a better move until the post game D:
@user-gv7wx5dt5jI love how cool Emboar is 🔥. Tepig is really cute and I am fine with Pignite even though not being a fan of it. So I like the line in general.
@@kapilbansal4518 Not like that, just wanted to play with the Pokémon I love. There was Beartic and Swoobat on the team too as I mentioned which are fully evolved.
Ion Deluge was introduced as Mega-kangaskhan counterplay for VGC. It was usable by pokemon with Lightningrod to turn Mega-Kanga's normal attacks into Electric attacks, so that it would be attracted to the user and protect their partner.
It also was used in a alternate version of the "Follow Me Pachirisu" (one that used Hydregion instead of Gyarados) that won some online tournaments some months before THE Follow Me Pachirisu Worlds.
Zeraora actually has a signature move Plasma Fists, which is basically Ion Deluge but it also does damage. On top of that, it also has the ability Volt Absorb, which recovers HP from electric type moves. It is a mythical Pokémon, so it can’t be used in competitive battles, but it is still more useful than Ion Deluge.
Ion Deluge is a really funny move because Pachirisu would sometimes use it in Gen6 VGC, as it would change Mega Kangaskhan's Double Edge to let it hit Ghosts and Hydreigon Hyper Beam to get some important KO's.
I actually knew about Celebrate! Surprisingly, the move was actually viable in exactly one Generation, being Gen 7. If you used it as a Z-Move, the Pokemon would get an omniboost, and it was extremely deadly paired with the mons that could learn it (specifically Victini)
Splash did something similar too. It would raise your Attack by three stages when used as a z move. It had use as Gyarados and Tsareena kept splash on evolving.
Feel like i need to add this quick note about Chill reception since it was overlooked in that its a) negative priority and b)used to counter weather wars. A big part of doubles is weather teams and pivoting, so while tou could run slowking on a snow team as a setter and pivoter (it also has regenerater) its more likely use is a pivoter and weather contester. While in most cases the snow wont do much, it does remove any active weathers
In Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, a "cold" joke is often used to refer to a joke that has no punchline, or one that fails to get a laugh from its audience. An unamused audience may remark that the room is suddenly cold. A similar joke in the English language is to pretend to only hear crickets respond to a bad joke. An exaggeration of this response in media, particularly in comedies, is to have the room literally become cold as a result of a bad joke. This is why this move creates a snowstorm, and why the user leaves the battlefield, presumably ashamed of its terrible joke.
Maybe I’m just a venipede fanatic, but seeing steamroller on this list is really surprising. That was one of my go to moves for every chance I get a venipede on my team
I got Happy Hour on the event Munchlax from Sun and Moon. It may seem useless, but it increases the amount of money you get from trainer battles, AND it can be stacked with the Amulet Coin or Luck Incense to increase your payout even more. So if you're low on cash in-game, then it could be useful. Also the animation for it is kinda fun.
I hate how they’ve made completely useless moves but discontinued good moves from SWSH like Grassy Glide. My Hidden Ability Rillaboom was awesome with that move
Regarding Chilly Reception (someone else mentioned it as well), it can be VERY good in Competitve. It can help Slowking use regenerator and is an amazing set up into Baxcalibur, one of the best mons in the current OU metagame due to the loaded dice icicle spear combo, and the extra defense Baxcalibur gets can allow it to set up dragon dances and make Glaive Rush even better.
3:01 bouncy bubble was one of my go to moves in lets go eevee it’s pretty powerful with 90 base power if I remember correctly and it’s reliable recovery also but I really like the animation for sizeley slide
The partner Eevee moves also have a bunch of crazy secondary effects like auto setting up Leech Seed, Screens, etc. In competitive Let's Go (yes that's a thing) the partner Eevee is like Landorus-t levels of everywhere because of those moves. They would be much more well known if they were transferable on a regular Eevee. Can you imagine if Espeon or Jolteon got that kind of coverage and utility?
Here is the story of Iron Deluge (and how i first encountered it) Following Sejun Park’s victory with pachurisu at worlds, a couple trainers decided to try to use it as well. One of these people (I forgot the name) used iron deluge on pachurisu. With volt absorb, pachurisu became a great counter for mega kangaskhan of all things. Using pachurisu and iron deluge, this person (again i forgot the name) was able to win a regionals
Any pokemon with volt absorb or lightning rod with ion deluge would be a decent counter to normal moves however, normal type pokemon normally learn ground moves which is an auto counter except for some exceptions
And according to False swipe gaming’s video on Pachurisu, someone used it before Sejun’s championship during an online event with ion deluge to turn hydreigon’s hyperbeam into a electric type move
Bro you did not just say that at 7:15 lol😂, slowking literally switched out, it’s not supposed to benefit from it, it’s just a decent support move. Also, since slowking is really slow and has regenerator, it’s just a diet teleport
Take Heart can actually be called by Metronome in Scarlet and Violet, and it raises the user's Special Attack and Special Defense and cures status conditions.
In Switch Pokemon games, all the moves that no available Pokemon in the game can learn and do not have the "this move can't be used" unusable move description can still be called via Metronome Edit: Take Heart and Manaphy has returned in Teal Mask DLC, as a transfer only non-dex Pokemon
Chilly reception is actually good in singles on stall teams. It allows Slowking or Glowking to tank a hit and then switch out into a less bulky pokemon (healing with regenerator as well) because it has negative priority. Also I knew every move in this video.
One overlooked move which probably hasn't actually been heard of is Mystical Power (I know it sounds familiar, but you're probably thinking of something else), which is a new signature move for the lake guardians, Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie. It's a 70BP 90% accurate psychic type move which always raises Sp.Atk by one stage, and as it was introduced in PLA, and it sounds similar to other moves, it gets missed pretty frequently, which is a shame, since I think it's pretty cool.
Fun fact: Take Heart is actually in Scarlet and Violet, but it can only be called via Metronome. Its new effect is raising the user's Sp. Atk and Sp. Def by 1 stage each, which is the same as Calm Mind, a move of the same type that Manaphy has always been able to learn!
@@FubukiTheIcyKing It's certainly possible, but VERY unlikely! It's a legendary signature move which, correct me if I'm wrong, have never been given to regular 'mons before, not that it matters since the new 'mons could just learn Calm Mind, a TM in the base game of SV
Chilly reception is actually really good to let slowking take a hit and then pivot into a pokemon. The fact it causes snow is almost completely unimportant to how people use it
Celebrate is starting to get somewhat well known I think, due to both its rarity and effect making it something worth talking about even if the move itself is almost never encountered.
Yeah, Celebrate is starting to be more known I think, but still lots of people don't know it too. One time I found a challenge online where you had to type in all of the Pokemon moves that do literally nothing and very fast, which is where I know Celebrate, Hold Hands and the others from.
Comeuppance is actually a decent move on Mabosstiff. Because of it's already low speed, and items that can make it even lower, it basically becomes a much better version of payback. It's not the best move it can learn sure, but it never left my movepool lol
Hello, Michael! Pokefan here....I think you're missing the singles comp use of Chilly Reception. They removed teleport in Gen 9, which made Slowking relevant again due to teleports negative priority combined with its Regenerator ability. You switch to Skowking. Take a couple of hits and Chilly Reception out to a better match-up, giving you momentum and Regenerator kicks in giving Slowking back 30% of it's hp. It's a way to still have Slowking pivot and setting up snow at the same time. The snow is less important than the pivot.
I've actually seen Pimpnite use Tidy Up when he was doing a Maushold theme team. It's probably the most useful when facing a Glimora that's trying to set up entry hazards like Stealth Rocks and Toxic Spikes
Tidy Up is specifically one of only two ways (Court Change being the other) to clear hazards when a non-Tera Gholdengo is the opponent. That alone makes it useful in a competitive sense, the stat boosts are just an extra bonus.
It’s basically dragon dance and defog in one move. You don’t need to clear any hazards to get the boosts either so it’s still a great setup move for Maushold
What exactly is the point of teleport competitively? All I see is that it's just a switch to another pokemon, but it's a moveslot when you can do it yourself without a moveslot?
@@goldencyanrod64 basically it allows you to react to whatever your opponent does so if they switch out into a weavile you can switch into your weavile counter if you use chilly or teleport.
@@impbutnot3701 OH. Switch-in in MAX PRIORITY. Teleport isn't, so now I see that you can switch out after you see what happens. Now I appreciate the move a lot more.
@@goldencyanrod64idk if u got ur answer, but it's negative priority meaning u can get hit before switchijg out so u can get another pokemon in without taking damage. Teleport with slow kings regenerator ability let's it tank a hit, get ur other mons in safely, and heal some of it off considering slowking is bulky
Celebrate, hold hands and happy hour have a good z move effect. chilly reception is great for pivoting because they got rid of teleport. Regenerator pivot slowtwins have been amazing historically. The snow is great for Bascalibur or just to get rid of other weather.
We actually do know what take heart does in scarlet violet! Looking in game code (or maybe metronome can call it idk) you can see it raises the user's special attack and special defense by 1, and cures its own status conditions
I wish that you were going to explain about the obscured move called light of ruin since that’s a signature move of the Eternal Flower Floette Pokemon that has never been release at all.
I'd love to see another "no catch" run of a pokemon game. UA-cam doesn't have many and that's a missed opportunity for the other games besides soul silver and such.
Spotlight is actually sometimes a pretty useful move, both for getting rid of rage power or follow me (which are both very popular in the current meta) and for changing a charge moves target if you need to.
I played competitive once with a lokix and landed a axe kick on a rotom heat and cross chop and once roaring moon came out my lokix lived on one hp and u turn one shot the roaring moon XD

Chilly Reception is really good actually. It functions as a teleport that helps out Ice type team members and shuts down enemy sun/rain.
zzz
Still seems a little niche tho

16:45 - A hard Quash defender here:
Quash is an EXCELLENT move to deal against both super fast (Flutter Mane) or Trick Room (Ursaluna) mons, if used by a Prankster user such as Sableye
I've literally managed to reach Master Rank easily with my Sableye using it
I've also found Quash helpful in the 4v1 battles of Dynamax Adventures and Tera Raids, since your pokemon hitting before the raid boss can make or break a battle.
Yes! With Sableye it's especially good. It allows your heavy hitters to attack pokemon that would usually outsized them, which tend to also be fragile so you have a good chance of taking it out.
Spotlight actually does have a niche use in that if your other Pokémon uses a move like outrage that hits a random target, you can force it to hit a specific target with spotlight
wouldn't it also kinda work in a double battle where your rival controls the other pokemon? still bad though
@@joeywillems5517In that case, you should just attack whichever one you want to attack instead of using Spotlight. It's still a waste of a turn.
Spotlight was probably meant for battle royals
It also worked well in the battle royale style battle in gen 7
Actually, chilly reception is not only good, but it does make sense for only slowking to know it. In pokemon 2000, a talking slowking is in the middle of a snowstorm where he says: "i could really use some pants", so it DOES make sense, albeit in kind of a weird way.
YES! I thought I was the only one who remembered this connection
also tbh the move wouldnt make much more sense if slowking was ice type because he switches out anyways, if anything it would be more frustrating
Chilly reception is actually a REALLY good move in singles. Being a pivot move on a bulky, slow, pokemon already makes it great, since it allows another pokemon to come in without taking damage, but the hail also combines very well with pokemon such as baxcalibur.

But he has some bonehead takes because he never looks into how these Pokemon are actually used when people play other people, which I think is a much better metric then how good they are against the stupid AI. He also said lokix wasn't a very good Pokemon
@@noremac7216i guess lokix left him a bad FIRST IMPRESSION, amirite?
@@noremac7216bro needs to experience a lokix spamming first impression during the early gen 9 meta
i've heard about hold hands from a tumblr post i saw like 4 years ago that was also absolutely baffled by its existence. i love how funny some of these moves are i don't care how bad some of these are. chilly reception is the funniest move ever conceived
Celebrate was a good move in gen 7, because Z-Celebrate gives you a omni boost. But it's so inaccessible that I've only seen it in Pokemon Showdown
Oh ya I remember that
Omniboosted Victini or Mew, it gives me so many flashbacks
I actually used to run a Z-Splash Solgaleo during Gen VII. Funniest thing back then. Z-Splash does the same effect.
Atleast garchomp didn’t get splash in Sun and Moon because an omniboosted garchomp sounds terrifying in vgc
I remember using Z-Happy Hour Protean Greninja in Showdown. Good times
Lokix is actually pretty good, tinted lens, a pretty decent attack stat, stab u-turn and first impression and good dark stab is a good combo
You can sweep Geeta with a lokix with axe kick.
@@CethIsADeviltbf you can sweep geeta with a lot of things
@@mrchickinman9984True.
I swept Geeta with my Skeledirge with Torch Song, Flamethrower, Snarl, And Shadow Ball
people just call pokemon bad before they even use them for some reason.
there's a lot of moves i could think of being pretty obscure, like..
Me First, False Surrender, Forest's Curse, Trick-or-Treat, Smelling Salts, Bonemerang, Grass Whistle, Kinesis, Strange Steam, Chip Away, Electrify, Flower Shield, Hold Back, Mat Block, Luster Purge, Happy Hour, Mind Read, Mud Bomb, Mud Sport, Psycho Shift, Rolling Kick, Rock Wrecker, Raging Fury, Sky Uppercut, Secret Power, Spike Cannon, Stuff Cheeks, Topsy-Turvy, Trump Card, Wring Out, Zing Zap, Snore, Light of Ruin, and Laser Focus
and also if z-moves count... Genesis Supernova, Splintered Stormshards, and Stoked Sparksurfer
when i first saw smelling salts on all move list i was genuinely wondering when the hell was this added how did i miss it
If you play competitive you probably heard of Chilly Reception. It is why probably for the first time in its life Slowking was in OU
Slowking-Galar was OU last gen. Regular Slowking also saw some OU usage but it was niche between Slowbro and Slowking-Galar
Lunar Blessing is similar to the move Jungle Healing, the signature move of Zarude (which is also obscure), however Lunar Blessing Cresselia is dominating VGC right now so it's not that obscure after all.
I’d make me cry if I didnt play trick room
zzz
Also super busted move in legends where it raised evasion
@@Kryomkit is busted it helped me out on my battle against volo and giratina's first and second phase
@@Kryomkcorrect but we all knew that legends move isn't going to translate into a mainline game with the same iteration
i was completley unaware of toxic thread until a spinarak in the teal mask dlc used it
I’ve heard of all of these moves…because Metronome is really weird sometimes and picks moves I don’t think I’ll ever see in normal circumstances.
Spotlight might actually work well in situations where your second Pokemon is using Outrage/Petal Dance/etc since it chooses a random target. You could ensure that it hits the Pokemon that you want it to.
Also was super used in Gen 7 with Clefairy in VGC.
Yeah you're smart!
3:08 actually it's pretty useful in pokerogue with sinistcha
I was thinking ab pokerogue too! That's where ik some of these moves from, axe kick, most of the silly named ones, cummupance, n a couple more I've seen there too
Celebrate and Hold Hands are useful in Alola with the Z-move version effects are stat boosts for the attacks, defenses, and speed.
Wish they’d kept Spotlight as another way to counter redirection apart from Stalwart
Also as many have pointed out Chilly Reception is used a lot, and it’ll be even more viable when Alolan ice types are added in the DLC
How did you not know about Pika Papow and Veevee Volley? Above the attack button Pikachu or Eevee *shake* the controller. Also it might just be that I have ADHD but I found it so hard NOT to shake the controller!! I also think it was funny how people were like “There’s a secret multiplayer mode?!?!?” While me and my aunt found it immediately and loved it because we like co-op games so a co-op Pokémon game was really cool! (Even if it made every battle really easy 😅)
Chilly Reception is actually a very good move, as it can ruin weather teams, and also its good for pivoting.
And something tells me Weather might become more common than before. Maybe not Gen 5 common but still quite common.
Another thing to note about it is that in Japanese the word "Samui" means cold but can also mean corny when referring to humor. So basically it tells a cold joke.
Also insanely good for draft. It + Beartic got be 7 kills in my first 2 games
Chilly reception is actually pretty useful atm since Galarian Slowking uses it to pivot and then buff Baxcalibur. Also it's likely a reference to the Slowking from Pokémon 2000
I thought it was something to do with that movie!
Ionization and ion deluge should be a weather condition that makes every normal move and normal pokemon into electric types that would be amazing to have that kind of effect in battle. Bouffant electric stab head charge.
Quash is actually relatively prevalent in Gen 8 VGC, I played Gen 8 VGC and I saw it quite a lot and it’s very useful as well, an annoying move to come across especially with sableye
it uses it well bcz of Prankster
Early S/V Murkrow flashbacks
It got paired alot with Murkowski in gen 9
Yeah, Sableye used to run it alot
Your not lying
Three of these, Mortal Spin, Chilling Reception, and Tidy up, are often on random team movesets on Showdown, so they may be better known. Also I feel like Hold Hands and Celebrate may have a bit of the Millard Fillmore effect, being known for being obscure.
Yeah, tidy up Maushold seems like it can then outspeed and one shot anything that isn't a rock, steel, or ghost type with population bomb.
I'm dealing with tidy up just going WTF
Actually a bunch of these: axe kick on lokix, lunar blessing on cress in doubles, and quash on doubles sableye are some other examples
Ngl 'Baddy Bad' goes hard 🔥🔥🗣🥶
Funny thing about celebrate and the other event exclusive moves, I'm sure people have already said this but in gen 7 singles it was actually really good because with a normalium Z celebrate would give you plus one in every stat so it was used in very niche scenarios with even mons
Z-Splash was funnier though.
(+3 Phys. Atk.)
I feel like event exclusive moves should be a regular move, but with a different name and animation. That way it could be used, but wouldn’t lock a really good move behind events
Spotlight was actually a really cool move that i used back in a day. You COULD target your ally who could be immune to potential attacks, hide behind a sub, being super bulky/resistant or using the move Metal Burst/Counter or Mirror Coat. It could redirect dangerous moves while your ally could heal you while tanking hits. It could also make you ignore redirections from Follow Me (it was anti-follow me basically giving your ally Stallwart or Properell Tail ability for a turn). Considering how common even up to these days the move Follow Me is, i am surprised this move has been removed from the games, instead of being given to MORE pokemon. Because very few pokemon could learn it and i think that was detrimental.
Spotlight could have been useful in battle royal too, a way to gang up two opponents on another one, even tho you're still better off using global moves like earthquake or surf
Honestly toxic tread is pretty decent. I'm hoping for some of the old two evolution lines to get a new one. It was hype when we got new ones in gen 5
I actually use maushold in pokemon showdown after encountering it with tidy up and population bomb in random battles, the combo of those moves shocked me after using it and has made me love maushold as a great pvp pokemon
Yeah it’s actually stupidly broken, in OU, you can give it an accuracy raising item to almost ensure a full 10 hits with pop bomb or in AG, you can give it king’s rock and annoy people
Mortal spin has been a very common move in VGC, the same as lunar blessing since Cresselia was permitted in VGC. Also Quash on those pokemon you said was pretty good, speed control in VGC is super important. But I understand most people don't play VGC.
Baddie bad😂😂😂😂😂 4:34
6:59 Chilly reception is such a based move concept in-universe tho. Sloking remembering a terrible joke only to tell it later and NO ONE LAUGHS is absolutely perfect
That actually makes sense in-universe 🤣
I knew about Steamroller because I used it with my Whirlipede on my White 2 playthrough which I beat with my favourite pokemon: Servine, Whirlipede, Mienfoo, Beartic, Swoobat and Vibrava. It's a shame that it can not learn a better move until the post game D:
Are you attempting challenge of 2nd stage pok
@user-gv7wx5dt5jI love how cool Emboar is 🔥. Tepig is really cute and I am fine with Pignite even though not being a fan of it. So I like the line in general.
@@kapilbansal4518 Not like that, just wanted to play with the Pokémon I love. There was Beartic and Swoobat on the team too as I mentioned which are fully evolved.
Am I the only one that's bothered by the normal type of move being super effective in the thumbnail
YESS YOUR SO RIGHT THIS WAS PISSING ME OFF
Ion Deluge was introduced as Mega-kangaskhan counterplay for VGC. It was usable by pokemon with Lightningrod to turn Mega-Kanga's normal attacks into Electric attacks, so that it would be attracted to the user and protect their partner.
if parental bond affected booster moves it would be OP
It also was used in a alternate version of the "Follow Me Pachirisu" (one that used Hydregion instead of Gyarados) that won some online tournaments some months before THE Follow Me Pachirisu Worlds.
Zeraora actually has a signature move Plasma Fists, which is basically Ion Deluge but it also does damage. On top of that, it also has the ability Volt Absorb, which recovers HP from electric type moves. It is a mythical Pokémon, so it can’t be used in competitive battles, but it is still more useful than Ion Deluge.
It's like, how come the good physical Electric moves are limited to being signature moves.
@@ShiningJudgment666 yeah :/
Because Game Freak hates good balance@@ShiningJudgment666
HEY!!! You put some respect on Lokix's name. He was a core member of my playthrough team. He got me through some tough battles.
Ion Deluge is a really funny move because Pachirisu would sometimes use it in Gen6 VGC, as it would change Mega Kangaskhan's Double Edge to let it hit Ghosts and Hydreigon Hyper Beam to get some important KO's.
It had some success too
I actually knew about Celebrate! Surprisingly, the move was actually viable in exactly one Generation, being Gen 7. If you used it as a Z-Move, the Pokemon would get an omniboost, and it was extremely deadly paired with the mons that could learn it (specifically Victini)
yeah, z-celebrate was like the ancient power boost, I believe
Splash did something similar too. It would raise your Attack by three stages when used as a z move.
It had use as Gyarados and Tsareena kept splash on evolving.
I used Hitmonlee on my first playthrough and had them learn axe kick and use it all throughout.
Feel like i need to add this quick note about Chill reception since it was overlooked in that its a) negative priority and b)used to counter weather wars. A big part of doubles is weather teams and pivoting, so while tou could run slowking on a snow team as a setter and pivoter (it also has regenerater) its more likely use is a pivoter and weather contester. While in most cases the snow wont do much, it does remove any active weathers
It’s actually not negative priority, slowking is just really slow
In Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, a "cold" joke is often used to refer to a joke that has no punchline, or one that fails to get a laugh from its audience. An unamused audience may remark that the room is suddenly cold. A similar joke in the English language is to pretend to only hear crickets respond to a bad joke. An exaggeration of this response in media, particularly in comedies, is to have the room literally become cold as a result of a bad joke. This is why this move creates a snowstorm, and why the user leaves the battlefield, presumably ashamed of its terrible joke.
Chilly Reception doesn’t have negative priority. Its users are just really slow.
@@skeetermania3202 yeah hence the name Slowking. It contains "slow" in its name
Maybe I’m just a venipede fanatic, but seeing steamroller on this list is really surprising. That was one of my go to moves for every chance I get a venipede on my team
I already knew this move since my first playthrough in BW.
I KNOW RIGHT i was so surprised
Yeah.. Thought that was weird. I knew about that one.
Lol I love that move, I was also surprised to see it on this list
Actually, I believe there was a time in VGC where Quash was used. Correct me if I’m wrong, but it was from a Murkrow discussed by False Swipe Gaming
z-celebrate was really good as it gave the user an omni boost. It was very widely used on showdown where you can use any legal move setups
I mean for the week it was legal.
@@xatuyou8045week? I used for about a month. Maybe because of Anything Goes?
I got Happy Hour on the event Munchlax from Sun and Moon. It may seem useless, but it increases the amount of money you get from trainer battles, AND it can be stacked with the Amulet Coin or Luck Incense to increase your payout even more. So if you're low on cash in-game, then it could be useful.
Also the animation for it is kinda fun.
I hate how they’ve made completely useless moves but discontinued good moves from SWSH like Grassy Glide. My Hidden Ability Rillaboom was awesome with that move
Regarding Chilly Reception (someone else mentioned it as well), it can be VERY good in Competitve. It can help Slowking use regenerator and is an amazing set up into Baxcalibur, one of the best mons in the current OU metagame due to the loaded dice icicle spear combo, and the extra defense Baxcalibur gets can allow it to set up dragon dances and make Glaive Rush even better.
3:01 bouncy bubble was one of my go to moves in lets go eevee it’s pretty powerful with 90 base power if I remember correctly and it’s reliable recovery also but I really like the animation for sizeley slide
sizzly slide, buzzy buzz and bouncy bubble were so useful
They were so op, and I solo'd the champion with it. I only knew the main 3 though
Let's go eevee was my first pokemon game, so I knew all of the eevee moves because I didn't play sword and shield till years after
I have a celebrate lycanrock, I got it from an event where they gave out own tempo rockruffs. I didn’t have to go in person.
The partner Eevee moves also have a bunch of crazy secondary effects like auto setting up Leech Seed, Screens, etc. In competitive Let's Go (yes that's a thing) the partner Eevee is like Landorus-t levels of everywhere because of those moves.
They would be much more well known if they were transferable on a regular Eevee. Can you imagine if Espeon or Jolteon got that kind of coverage and utility?
Game freak could have easly made those moves signature moves for the respective eeveelutions
Here is the story of Iron Deluge (and how i first encountered it)
Following Sejun Park’s victory with pachurisu at worlds, a couple trainers decided to try to use it as well. One of these people (I forgot the name) used iron deluge on pachurisu. With volt absorb, pachurisu became a great counter for mega kangaskhan of all things. Using pachurisu and iron deluge, this person (again i forgot the name) was able to win a regionals
Any pokemon with volt absorb or lightning rod with ion deluge would be a decent counter to normal moves however, normal type pokemon normally learn ground moves which is an auto counter except for some exceptions
And according to False swipe gaming’s video on Pachurisu, someone used it before Sejun’s championship during an online event with ion deluge to turn hydreigon’s hyperbeam into a electric type move
Bro you did not just say that at 7:15 lol😂, slowking literally switched out, it’s not supposed to benefit from it, it’s just a decent support move. Also, since slowking is really slow and has regenerator, it’s just a diet teleport
Take Heart can actually be called by Metronome in Scarlet and Violet, and it raises the user's Special Attack and Special Defense and cures status conditions.
In Switch Pokemon games, all the moves that no available Pokemon in the game can learn and do not have the "this move can't be used" unusable move description can still be called via Metronome
Edit: Take Heart and Manaphy has returned in Teal Mask DLC, as a transfer only non-dex Pokemon
Chilly reception is actually good in singles on stall teams. It allows Slowking or Glowking to tank a hit and then switch out into a less bulky pokemon (healing with regenerator as well) because it has negative priority. Also I knew every move in this video.
Not just stall, it’s good on balanced teams aswell, to keep momentum
And are u sure that it's neg priority
@xdCoolbro-kq6dk It's not. Glowking is just that slow. It has a speed value of 0. Base. That's it
@@FinrodFelagundTheFair I know he said it has negative priority so I asked him to be sure😅
@xdCoolbro-kq6dk It's all good. I had to double-check myself just to make sure because so many people keep saying it.
Chilly Reception might be an Easter Egg to the second movie. Slowking was first seen in the movie and at certain points is seen in a snow storm.
One overlooked move which probably hasn't actually been heard of is Mystical Power (I know it sounds familiar, but you're probably thinking of something else), which is a new signature move for the lake guardians, Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie. It's a 70BP 90% accurate psychic type move which always raises Sp.Atk by one stage, and as it was introduced in PLA, and it sounds similar to other moves, it gets missed pretty frequently, which is a shame, since I think it's pretty cool.
Fun fact: Take Heart is actually in Scarlet and Violet, but it can only be called via Metronome. Its new effect is raising the user's Sp. Atk and Sp. Def by 1 stage each, which is the same as Calm Mind, a move of the same type that Manaphy has always been able to learn!
its flavor text from S/V on Bulbapedia states that it cures the user's status ailments as well, so that functionality also seems to have been kept.
@@nesradub360 Yeah, but the actual effect doesn't seem to be that. If you read the effect on that same Bulbapedia page it only mentions the stat boost
Maybe its coded to the dlc mons? Or a future move tutor.
@@FubukiTheIcyKing It's certainly possible, but VERY unlikely! It's a legendary signature move which, correct me if I'm wrong, have never been given to regular 'mons before, not that it matters since the new 'mons could just learn Calm Mind, a TM in the base game of SV
@@lolrenzo7625 Huh. I wonder why it's coded in unless Manaphy is getting added in or it's just dummy code.
Chilly reception is actually really good to let slowking take a hit and then pivot into a pokemon. The fact it causes snow is almost completely unimportant to how people use it
Magnetic Flux was actually surprisingly helpful for one of the 7 star raids that I did with my friend. That’s the only reason I knew it
Celebrate is starting to get somewhat well known I think, due to both its rarity and effect making it something worth talking about even if the move itself is almost never encountered.
It was used in Gen 7, when Z-Celebrate gave your Pokemon an omni boost.
Yeah, Celebrate is starting to be more known I think, but still lots of people don't know it too.
One time I found a challenge online where you had to type in all of the Pokemon moves that do literally nothing and very fast, which is where I know Celebrate, Hold Hands and the others from.
Zippy Zap is basically Volt tackle with less recoil,but it is soo good
Comeuppance is actually a decent move on Mabosstiff. Because of it's already low speed, and items that can make it even lower, it basically becomes a much better version of payback. It's not the best move it can learn sure, but it never left my movepool lol
Same
I loved using Lokix. Definitely one of my favorites in the new region.
Hello, Michael! Pokefan here....I think you're missing the singles comp use of Chilly Reception. They removed teleport in Gen 9, which made Slowking relevant again due to teleports negative priority combined with its Regenerator ability. You switch to Skowking. Take a couple of hits and Chilly Reception out to a better match-up, giving you momentum and Regenerator kicks in giving Slowking back 30% of it's hp. It's a way to still have Slowking pivot and setting up snow at the same time. The snow is less important than the pivot.
I remember Lunar Blessing so much because the Cresselia kept on healing with it every single time I damaged it to catch it
Quash, Mortal Spin and Lunar Blessing are common and very useful moves in double battles
You can use spotlight in double battles with npcs to make them attack a specific Pokémon
I've actually seen Pimpnite use Tidy Up when he was doing a Maushold theme team. It's probably the most useful when facing a Glimora that's trying to set up entry hazards like Stealth Rocks and Toxic Spikes
Eyyyy a Pimpnite fan! Nice. When he talked about Tidy Up I thought of that too
When I read this I thought there was some new Pokémon that I missed called Pimpnite
Tidy up is amazing and necessary on maushold
Tidy Up is specifically one of only two ways (Court Change being the other) to clear hazards when a non-Tera Gholdengo is the opponent. That alone makes it useful in a competitive sense, the stat boosts are just an extra bonus.
It’s basically dragon dance and defog in one move. You don’t need to clear any hazards to get the boosts either so it’s still a great setup move for Maushold
6:30 Chilly Reception is actually a good move in competitive. It's there because Slowking lost teleport
What exactly is the point of teleport competitively? All I see is that it's just a switch to another pokemon, but it's a moveslot when you can do it yourself without a moveslot?
@@goldencyanrod64 basically it allows you to react to whatever your opponent does so if they switch out into a weavile you can switch into your weavile counter if you use chilly or teleport.
@@impbutnot3701 OH. Switch-in in MAX PRIORITY. Teleport isn't, so now I see that you can switch out after you see what happens. Now I appreciate the move a lot more.
@@goldencyanrod64idk if u got ur answer, but it's negative priority meaning u can get hit before switchijg out so u can get another pokemon in without taking damage. Teleport with slow kings regenerator ability let's it tank a hit, get ur other mons in safely, and heal some of it off considering slowking is bulky
I have actually encountered scolipedes with steam roller in pokemon black and white, so I knew of the move already
20:40 Steelroller was actually re-added to Gen 9, Iron Treads can learn it by level up and a lot of other pokemon can learn it through move tutor.
Wrong move
Lol whoops@@Leosloth2011
Imagine if steamroller was 20 BP stronger, we would have a bug type bodyslam
It's called Steel Roller, one of the Isle of Armor tutor moves but changed to Iron Treads signature move
Ion Deluge is actually quite infamous due to some being featured on Pachirisu in VGC.
I remember Rototiller because of the many Mudbray I've battled in Sun
Celebrate, hold hands and happy hour have a good z move effect. chilly reception is great for pivoting because they got rid of teleport. Regenerator pivot slowtwins have been amazing historically. The snow is great for Bascalibur or just to get rid of other weather.
We actually do know what take heart does in scarlet violet! Looking in game code (or maybe metronome can call it idk) you can see it raises the user's special attack and special defense by 1, and cures its own status conditions
I miss rototiller and streamroller, i used those moves in tournaments with friends and manage to pull extremely funny situations
I wish that you were going to explain about the obscured move called light of ruin since that’s a signature move of the Eternal Flower Floette Pokemon that has never been release at all.
you know its a nice day when mikey uploads(edit bro im not a bot)
Yup
Agree
I'm not having a good day though
You spelled it wrong, it’s mickey
Or a good night, I'm from India
Chilly reception is a throw back to Pokémon the second movie at the end when slowking tells a bad joke and it goes quite and starts to snow I believe
I'd love to see another "no catch" run of a pokemon game. UA-cam doesn't have many and that's a missed opportunity for the other games besides soul silver and such.
He’s still suffering from the shiny Sigilyph that he had to kill in the last video.
Yeah I imagine trying to breed the gift toxel (after evolving) with a cinderace so they can have both the gift toxel and the trade eevee
@@mbcodes18 it would be a good strategy. But UA-camr haven't tried a no catch run in much of the games
Chilly reception is a bit popular move in competitive, i remember many of my opponents using this move and people building teams with it
Tidy Up is used alot competitively which removes hazards. Super useful for preserving sashes and sturdy.
Spotlight is actually sometimes a pretty useful move, both for getting rid of rage power or follow me (which are both very popular in the current meta) and for changing a charge moves target if you need to.
it also adds consistency to thrashing moves (Trash, Outrage, Petal Dance, etc) by letting you pick the target
I always wanted to see
*Everyone Explode now* as a move in main series game
Any pokemon who can learn the move explosion in battle explodes. Basically a board nuke
I played competitive once with a lokix and landed a axe kick on a rotom heat and cross chop and once roaring moon came out my lokix lived on one hp and u turn one shot the roaring moon XD
