      You show me getting stunted on by custap and then cut it right before I come back and win :(. Broken item

    Huge fans of Clear Amulet and Custap Berry, helped saved a few matches for me.
    Another niche item that became a personal favorite of mine is Absorb Bulb, if you setup and agility on a possible flip turn such as a lead palafin MU, you can put your opponent in a very tricky position

      Absorb Bulb would be so fire if it gave you a one time immunity to water moves

    Would be cool to also see a video on underrated moves in draft league. One move i've finally realized the full power of is healing wish. Being able to have a healing wish stored for a late game piece can be crucial. Definitely need to keep this video saved somewhere for future battle prep!

    • @jricky8

    The mental herb is an excellent shout out, I've used it a tiny bit but I absolutely agree we've all barely scratched the surface with it. Also hey there's some of me in there nice!

    How would multiple encore users beat mental herb you can only encore the terapagos once since it can hit everything for neutral unless they are greedy but if they are why not just use the same encore user.

    • @jricky8
      @jricky8  5 місяців тому +1

      Its not about Encoring the Terapagos multiple times. Its more about having mulitple options to do that job. So you have different options.
      Its like having multiple stealth rockers.

    I remember I managed to sweep in draft with a Bulk Up Defiant Thundurus-I holding an Adrenaline Orb. The plan was literally to use the opponent's Landorus-T to my advantage. I did pop off when the strat worked.

    Clear Amulet is an ability in item form and I like to think about what other abilities could be turned into items
    For example Air Balloon but only for types that already have immunity abilities (Fire, Water, Grass, and Electric)
    I could see some people want Intimidate to become an item because it’s the best competitive ability, but let’s be honest, we don’t want more Incineroars

    • @jricky8
      @jricky8  5 місяців тому +1

      Yeah would be cool to see more abilities coming as an item but maybe not Intimidate 😂

    Eject Button is not only great on weather setters but also terrain setters. Seed Sower Arboliva is a great canidate, when paired with any Unburden sweeper.

      Eject button + Cotton Down Eldegoss might just be the best pivot in the game that no one knows about - the speed drop on faster mons puts you in such a great position, especially if it’s a booster energy mon cause that item’s rendered useless
