    I personally find the environment tyranitar creates to be very interesting, particularly with its interactions with items and the trade-offs and rewards it introduces. The effective "default state" for a pokemon is that it's taking sand damage, and healing it off with leftovers, and while these two effects nullify each other, it creates a balance that can incentivize trying to tip it one way or the other with knock off or weather-changing moves, as well as adding a drawback to items like choice band or berries. Sunny day and rain dance now have the added effect of giving your pokemon that aren't sand-immune passive recovery (or at least disabling sandstorm's chip damage,) while knock off, in most cases, has the added effect of applying a permanent damage-over-time effect that can't be easily removed.

    The only "bad" thing about ttar is that it outclasses any other rock type and makes them hard to fit (except for Aero), like ive never seen a team with ttar and regirock or rhydon for example. But still an almost perfect top tier

    • @deeznoots6241
      @deeznoots6241 Рік тому +11

      Regirock does have a niche in OU, it has some advantages over ttar like better physical bulk(lets it beat dugtrio and ttar) and access to explosion and counter that can get big KO’s against mons that otherwise would love facing ttar or aero.
      Armaldo has rapid spin and knock off so its usable as a utility mon to support the rest of the team by removing rocks and leftovers(Gengar hates losing lefties while trying to spinblock)
      Rhydon is bad but theoretically its a mid ground between ttar and Regirock, physically bulkier than ttar but stronger offensively than Regirock and STAB earthquake is theoretically very nice against rock resists like Swampert and especially Metagross/Jirachi which would otherwise be able to take an earthquake from ttar or Regirock.

      It has rapid spin and explosion which is nice but its an unreliable spinner since Gengar can easily kill it with giga drain or HP grass, and the explosion matters little when it has neither the bulk to live a hit and then explode or high enough attack to actually scare away explosion switch-ins like Gengar or steel types. Rhydon just like in Gen 1 is simply stronger than Golem in the ways that actually matter: more attack and more bulk(which is why Rhydon is banned from UU but Golem isn’t)
      Explosion is a nice tool but if the only thing a pokemon can do to positively contribute is explode then its not good enough, at best you’re just trading 1 for 1 and at worst you are throwing away a pokemon to achieve nothing

  • @AmberLB93
    @AmberLB93 Рік тому +13

    I maintain the opinion that Gen 2 Snorlax is a bit much, and Gen 3 Tyranitar is more manageable and balanced.
    The solitary reason why Gen 2 Snorlax is so overwhelming is the generation-specific Rest + Sleep Talk interaction. It can stick around for way longer than it should be able to with Sleep Talk, because of how it worked in Gen 2. If Sleep Talk was banned, Snorlax itself would be at a similar power level to Gen 3 tyranitar, metagame shaping but not overcentralizing.
    Tyranitar also has a 4x weakness while Snorlax does not.
    Sleep Talk in Gen 2 could call Rest and reset the sleep cycle, if you don't know. And it would not deduct a Rest PP, only a Sleep Talk PP. this is the primary reason why snorlax is so broken in gen 2. in all subsequent generations it dropped below OU.

    • @crazycoolkids00
      @crazycoolkids00 Рік тому +6

      I'm not sure if you're trolling here, but just about this whole post is wrong. Here's why:
      • Snorlax in gen 2 only occasionally uses the rest-talk set. Curse and the meta's slow pace, along with the ability to max all stat exp (ev's in gsc) contribute to his placement as the best pokemon-not only in OU, but Ubers as well.
      • Snorlax is still OU in gen 3 and 4. So he did not drop below OU in subsequent gens. It actually took a nerf to the rest mechanics in gen 5 and obscene power creep before he finally fell, and he remained a top-tier giant in VGC for much longer.
      • Rest-talk is a niche strategy in gen 2 most commonly found on mons like Zapdos, heracross, machamp and tyranitar, the last three of which counter some Snorlax sets with their rest-talk sets. So ironically, rest-talk probably hurts lax more than it helps it in gen 2. (and yes, the last three of those counter rest-talk lax specifically with their own rest-talk sets-although heracross might have issues if the fourth lax slot is curse.)
      A few notes on where you may be going wrong:
      • although sleep talk can call rest, this still depletes sleep talk's 16pp, which means the fun and games will eventually end. It's more important to make progress than it is to live forever, so rest-talk sets are usually only used on pivots or set-up sweepers. Although mono-curse lax exists, it is exceedingly rare because of how much beats it and how passive it remains until its win-cons are met. as for pivot-lax, it's rare to use your "queen piece" as a mere pivot, like dragging a crown through mud. but it is occasionally done.
      • among gsc OU pokemon who beat rest-talk lax are the following (sorted by how they can beat the set):
      → by existing: umbreon, miltank, misdreavous, vaporeon
      → by existing, as long as it's not that one rest-talk set with [move x]: skarmory (fire blast), heracross (curse), tyranitar (eq)
      → by existing, as long as it doesn't switch in willy-nilly on hard hits: machamp, marowak, steelix, curse rhydon
      → by booming: cloyster, forry, eggs, gengar, golem…the usual suspects
      → by being a better version of snorlax: literally any snorlax with a set-up move
      → by being a budget version of snorlax: curse Kangaskhan, curse polygon2, probably curse lickitung (i dunno you can run the math on that one)…it's a lot of mons. I know this last set isn't OU, but that's my point. Even the niche strategies accidentally beat it.
      As an added bonus, this set is passive enough that both of the common spikes setters can abuse lax's passivity here to set up spikes.
      That leaves 7 Pokemon in OU that don't beat this set most of the time or use it to set spikes.
      So what does rest-talk lax do? basically it's just a more reliable way to pivot against zapdos, raikou and starmie while nullifying the threat of jynx and nidoking. And it honestly does a great job at this. if that's what your team needs, great. if not, pick a different lax.
      Hope this helps. :) Not trying to be mean or anything!

      That actually is a good question. Aside from the obvious picks, what items are good to run in gen 3?
      The item variety is a lot more limited - no specs, no scarf, no life orb, no black sludge. Lefties is universally good, but other options tend to be more set-dependent. Chesto on rest sets, Lum on setup sweepers, Choice Band for a physical wallbreaker, type-boosting items as a less-commital Choice item, White Herb if you run Overheat?
      You might bw forced into running something like Brightpowder just because there arent enough good general options, but that sounds like ass to play against - any sweeper might just randomly roll a 10% miss to lose the game in a critical moment.

      Keep in mind this is Gen 3 Sand, no SpDef boost and not as many Sand Abusing Abilities or Sand Abusing mons that are as powerful as Ttar. And yes, every Ttar set has a weakness to a viable set and or team style.

    I've been enjoying the Gen 3 content recently and went back and watched a bunch of gameplay videos.

I'm sure you explain it in videos somewhere but it might warrant its own video

    I just realized that Dragapult is stronger Ttar. It works as a pivot, support, special, mixed, physical, or outright win condition. It even has the variety within sets like physical sets running shadow ball to break physical walls like dozo or vice versa. Plus you can run wisp hex on special sets or shadow ball+ coverage or uturn. It just has the advantage of being obscenely fast.

      Not similar. At least in current gens, t tar was used as mostly sand support and choice band wallbreaker sets. It isn’t used much as a pivot, and in terms of stats its stronger than dragapult in pretty much everything other than the most important, speed. Dragapult is simply the boring mon you have to use on some teams, like zapdos or moltres

    I received an intel tip from Iron Brian; Iron Bugulis. Due to all the -ugulis Pokemon being in the same crime ring ruining Pokemon metagames across the spacetime continuum (Iron Jugulis, Mugulis, Chugulis, and potentially Chugjugulis), and knowing the Paradox names Raging Bolt and Iron Crown are fake identities given to Long/Tall (?) Necc and Iron Brian respectively, he thinks Iron Moth is actually a false identity given to the real Paradox Pokemon, Iron Bugulis. His past paradox contact, Long Necc, has connected this to Old Money's fake ID black market that allowed Iron Mugulis to travel to Gen 1. Whether Iron Bugulis is a victim of identity theft or an active participant of the organized crime, Iron Brian recommends us to keep an eye on the mechanical bugger, and in case he is also an ID thief, we need Pawmot or Rabsca to finally revive Great Tusk to Headlong Rush this criminal scum into Pokeprison for good. Spread the PSA!
