A Retrospective Look at Regulation H

Regulation H has come to a close. With Regulation G around the corner I decided to take a retrospective look at Regulation H. It was a very unique format being halfway through a games lifecycle and introducing bans to many common Pokémon, the metagame turned out partly as expected but also partly unexpected. Today we go over how the meta played out, including what Pokémon and what players perfo...

Pokemon VGC Draft League Power Rankings
I learned a lot and now im happy :) ty!
Great video, really informative!
nice video, at 9:19 urshifu is not weak to water type attacks, maybe you meant to say grass
If I'm not mistakes I said "It can't tera out of its water weaknesses". Meaning it can't remove it's weaknesses due to its water type. Perhaps I could have worded better.
Tera fire Koraidon nukes so many meta mons, it's not funny
A stab boost, attack boost from Orichalum Pulse and a sun boost it hits hard for sure.
I watched this live and it was such an a great match to watch. Seeing your in depth analysis on it just goes to how much goes into every turn. I’m still struggling with double battles at the moment but I’m trying 🥹
Love to see new players, Keep at it! It's a steep learning curve for sure, but when you keep at it and can look back at your progress it's very rewarding!

Yayayyya, the funny vgc man has posted
Great video as always!
how to choose tera types: tera electric hadron engine choice specs 252+ special attack miraidon
But what if you’re not running MIRAIDON?
@@SaucyCheeseburgerwithRanch something something defensive something something offensive
Can't argue with that.
Woooo another banger let’s goooo
very informative vid keep it up man, also could you do a vid on singles?
Dude, this is vgc. Not smogon
@@Ding-evenyou realize ranked singles are a thing, right?
What type of singles content would you be interested in? I mostly play VGC so I feel more qualified to talk about that. Most of my mechanic videos will apply to both though.
@@supaded973 I know, but the delybird mainly talks about doubles. So its kinda weird. However a singles video would be kinda nice
First baby!! Keep up the wonderful work!
Thank you! Will do!
First time viewer and I have to say that this was an excellent analysis! That section on "Marco's questions" was also handy, as I am just a new VGC enjoyer, and that section really helped me grasp how complex each turn can be. Also, the editing was what it needed to be, and the flow of the video was on point for something 40 minutes long. Each section felt as long as it should be. I subbed! I am looking forward to future analysis videos, and am hoping the quality remains the same or improves!
Thanks! I can assure you the quality will not dip, I feel like something improves a bit each video as I learn more about editing.
@ Glad to hear that, I’m rooting for ya!
the video is really good as someone who loves watching vgc but isn't too great at it, thank you
Appreciate it! Glad it's entertaining enough even for spectators.
Low-key, Wolfe is better when he uses anti meta, then when he uses meta teams
High key lol
Reg h was maybe my favorite format ever. So sad to see reg g come back. Great retrospective. You gained a subscriber
Crazy how all the teams are all the same Pokemon when we have 1,000 Pokemon to choose from. I tried to get into competitive during the sword and shield era as I picked Pokemon games back up the first time since I was a kid. And I saw the Pokemon being used, and didn’t like it. But I still find this interesting to watch, but I strictly only play DS era games and post game content.
Fair enough, there are some common meta pokemon that are seen a lot. But I think the view that all teams are the same really makes you miss out, even as a spectator. I'm sure you're aware two of the same pokemon can play completely differently with different sets. It is disappoint though for sure the amount of mons that don't/can't get used I agree with that 100%. The DS games are the best for in game content for sure though!
This content made me subscribe. Very impressive. Thank you for this.
Fantastic video! Also, one thing worth notice (you may have said it and I missed it somehow), i believe Wolfey mentioned he built the team specifically so P2 will always get an attack boost. His prep is out of this world.
Thanks! Yea it's pretty common to EV your pokemon to have higher spdef when P2 is in the metagame. But I believe he committed hard with max speed incineroar is pretty uncommon.
When Wolfy put up his team sheet in his community tab post-Toranto, I initially thought it was just a Rain Team....but someone in the comments said "Wolfey, this is the 7th time you'rve shown off Perish Trap. Isn't there anything else?"
He for sure loves his perish trap.
does sacrificing ursaluna for damage is good? still perplexed by the moved
He was likely expecting Wolfe to double switch then Earthquake would damage both incoming mons. In that case it would have been a decent trade.
Hi! Nice vid though there are problem with timestamps. 31:10
Thanks for pointing that out, it's been fixed!
Honestly my transition goals is to be a great support option with several useful moves, a great ability and stat spread, many good tera options, and also the maid outfit is pretty cute
real
Fantastic video I love how you did your own graphics with edits and jokes, and incorporated the footage from the tournament as well ❤️
Dude, you need WAAAAY more subs! Commenting for the algorithm and manifesting 2025 being a great content for you!
Thanks man, appreciate it!
I love the captions on what the Pokemon are saying. Don't know if you've heard of "Neck Sharpies" football analysis, but it reminds me of that.
I'll have to check it out!
Amazing video, thank you! Helps beginners like me a lot
Love to hear it, stay tuned!
I love this explanation! Especially the interactions between pokemons that you put in really bring the narrative to life!
"Developing a team around niche picks," *looks at laterally everything WolfeyVGC does.*
True
Tbh a full ice type team probably deals with his team easily using snow and freeze dry for ease Ive actually run into rain teams alot and have little difficulty beating them with the trickest issue being two rain setters but wolfey doesnt use that. Arch has never been a problem for ice type teams that are smart and use crabominable or any special attacker like tera fighting tera blast glaceon with ice body or snow cloak and an assault vest. The water types lose to freeze dry and the only scary players are amoongus and the goth but theyre playing support and using an abomasnow with ice beam as well as a dark pulse alolan ninetails makes the challenge alot less annoying It also deals with fire easily using stuff like baxcalib and mamoswine with mamoswine having ancient power and earthquake as well as an ice shard requiring incineroar to be gone but otherwise itll handle all the moves well letting charizard ko itself in solar power while eating an ancient power tera ground mamoswine attack (or maybe tera rock would be more ideal)
Freeze dry would be good into the team, but I think it would still be a battle for weather control. Arch would give ice types problems particularly with its sturdy. If you want an ice type challenge try making Delibird work! haha
@TheDelybird nah I've fought many with mono ice and he's fairly easy to deal with. The best I've seen after a night of testing is just a quiver dance blizzard frosmoth, tera electric makes it non viable The amoongus and goth are more scary but having a freeze dry pokemon do it's thing early makes that a non issue and abomasnow is slower than politoad and gets snow off Make ur ninetails ghost and bring it first turn with frosmoth to quiver dance and either chance the aurora veil or go for a blizzard or go safe with freeze dry/dark pulse then swap out ninetails when poli comes out for aboma launching a bug buzz to deal with goth or blizzard to deal with both using chip and having a mamoswine or crabominable handy with earthquake or drain punch Covering for trickroom with an ice hammer crabominable (But I ain't a gamer just love ice types)
great breakdown
16:10 Ursaluna is actually at -3 Sp.Def because of a psychic drop
Oh dang, can't believe I missed that!
That was great.
AMAZING VIDEO ANALYSIS! I don’t play VGC but this was really entertaining and informative for me, I felt like I am in the heart of the decision making
Such a good format, such a great video. Good stuff!
39:09 I'm kinda bad at the game so idk if that's a good thing or nah but couldn't Marco do like rage powder + trick room followed by fake out on kingdra + trick room again? The first trick room reverts the order back to normal and makes both of Marco's Pokémon faster than Wolfe's. To avoid kingdra being KO'd Wolfe had to bring in Politoed, so the Fake out + trick room play makes it so that the speed order becomes Poli-P2-Incin-Kingdra. In this spot Marco can try to KO Kingdra and go for a Recover + Triattack end game against a damaged Goth and Poli. What am I missing from this line?
It's a difficult endgame for sure. I see your logic of setting TR then reversing it as tailwind ends. But Wolfe could just protect kingdra on the fake out turn and switch in politoed the next turn for speed advantage on kingdra. And Marco would be eating 2 psychics in the meantime using TR twice.
This was a well thought out video really loved it looking forward to more
Can we look at another vgc battle feat Ray vs gebebo vgc 2010 side event?
I'll have to check it out
I personally really really loved reg H and I hope something similar to it comes back for future gens. I remember really trying to make primarina work (it sucks lmao too fast and weak to be a trick room sweeper, too slow and not bulky enough to be a utility pick) experimenting with hisuian decidueye, adjusting rain teams, having a lot of fun with sun room (my favourite team personally) and adjusting to the rapidly evolving metagame. Every week felt fresh, it felt like the format was never truly solved and it wouldn't be for some time. I could play an entire year of reg H and not get bored vs begging reg G to just end already after a month.
I felt the same about reg H, always was fresh!
Im gonna miss this format and the weather wars (the primals does not count)
