@agh it's a plane which is a shame because i love using Sceptile and since its mega is 4X weak to Ice makes me afraid to use it since ice type attacks are very common with ice punch, ice beam and blizzard
Pairing M-Sceptile with Discharging electrode with taunt/screens was how I got my stamp for the battle tree doubles My first ever game and starter was sapphire, so this boy will always be special to me. I'd love to see him in smash one day too!
At the very least some kids know type advantages, because the guy in the first clearly didn’t. They upgraded dawn wings to ultra, even though Sceptile knows dragon pulse lmao
@@lifehackerhansol I guess he was thinking in the damage only, since mega sceptile become Dragon type who is also weak to Dragon, BUT yeah he should changed and keep that big boi to finish the job later

I hate how sceptile has high special attack and not that high physical when it's physical movepool is clearly better. It's still my favorite grass type though.
Anyone else completely not expect Sceptile being able to learn dragon type moves in ruby, sapphire, and emerald? They gave us a ding dang clue to mega evolution and we did nothing.

I like the physical SD set more in singles. Especially since it gives me the option of Dragon Tail. That Work Up, Nature's Gift set is so fun to watch though.
This is why I will miss mega shinka. Sceptile by far is my FAVORITE grass starter and I DESPISED grass types due to their many weaknesses. His design is lethal and that dragon typing fits him perfectly. Just wish Gen2 and Gen4 had a chance for megas before removing them. 😭
Lol ultra bursting that dawn wings necrozma Sceptile: yeah okay, perish Bopped LOL, always loved Sceptile, love it's shiny and mega, imagine if it got a move to up its SpAtk, would've been crazy Great vid bro always enjoying these!
I love how mega sceptile has so many sets he can run, even physical! a 110 base attack is high enough to sweep easily with just one swords dance and some STAB moves, I really like using him alot. Just too bad that anything that could possibly learn a ice move will 9/10 insta kill it, if it's faster or survives. But then again, you got 5 other mons to cover sceptile for that so it's really not that bad. Really nice video Viz, loved the game play.

Because the anime is full of shit XD. Greninja takes a leaf storm from mega sceptile in the anime, when it has the bulk of a wet tissue paper. And mega sceptile faints to ONE water shuriken which it 4x resists smh.
Well the anime works a bit differently than the games, so don't expect things to work stat wise there too because some pokemon take hits far better than they would in the games likely. But yeah while type advantages matter, they don't guaranteed a win But yes, sometimes the anime does some stuff that makes no sense like thunder armor...and being hit by water somehow removes your ground typing.
@@40mihirkulkarni44 lol do you even know anything about pokemon? Leaf storm and frenzy plant both are special attacking moves. Leaf storm is 130 base damaging special move X 1.5 STAB X 2 super effective, so that's a damage of 390 on greninja. Aerial ace is a pathetic 60 base power move which goes upto 120 because of super effective damage and has no STAB. 390 Vs 120. You can do simple math right? Not to mention mega sceptile is a lot faster. If it was an in-game battle it would end in 1 turn before ash-gren can move.
@@dopham171 holy shit. That's new meta set on ash gren. (Btw leaf storm still has an 18% chance to KO lol, unless +spef nature, which would be next level meta)
That Tapu Bulu must've been choice banded. There's no way that a Wood Hammer would do that much without one. Even then, it's pretty insane that it almost finished off a 4x resistant mega pokemon that was not even at half health
this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why this is why you used all Pokémon
I legit just stayed a shiny badge quest in alpha sapphire and got my shiny treecko. And I was thinking to myself, wow Christmas would be a good name, but it’s teal.. so I named it Evergreen since that’s the kind of tree that is a Christmas tree. Then I stumble upon your awesome content and what do I see, a shiny sceptile named CHRISTMAS! Life’s crazy
I usually lean physical when using him because his physical movepool is bigger...though I get that after enough stat boosts type coverage doesn't really matter as much
"aaaah aegislash. With no recovery outside of leftovers and a signature move which does not stop it from getting burnt by will o wisp, once you realise that necrozma DM is better in every way it's pretty much GG".
Viz remember me? I watched you before sun and moon. And a stream long time ago you were playing fallout 76.. I wanna ask.. what console do you play on?
Can you guys help me? When I'm playing citra on my computer the game runs well like 30fps on max resolution, but for some reason the game goes to 0 fps and stays like that until I restart the game :/
It's unfortunate that mega sceptile dies when he gets hit by a little bit of snow
Just one Ice Shard😁😁😁
@agh it's a plane which is a shame because i love using Sceptile and since its mega is 4X weak to Ice makes me afraid to use it since ice type attacks are very common with ice punch, ice beam and blizzard
Mega Sceptile is basically an Australian
@JP i’d like to report racism, i am Australian (citizen) nah i’m just kidding, but right now in the east, it’s been non- stop cold rain
He can't help it man, he's from Texas! XD
It has always eluded me why Sceptile has lightning rod when it has a 4x resistance to electric
To be fair, Lucario and Coballion have Justifed and they have 4x resistance to Dark
😎
For the pokedex his tail is a lighting rod, but for the gameplay make no sense
Has a use for double battles i think; does it boost his special attack? If so, that's useful
Useful in doubles. Take something like pelliper, 4× weak to lightning, and sceptile will draw it all in
Pairing M-Sceptile with Discharging electrode with taunt/screens was how I got my stamp for the battle tree doubles

This is a nice strategie, I will try it out

Aura sphere would be good on it
It really is the most confusing stat growth well unless you get the means to legitimately make sure physical attack gets EV priority from level 1.
@Noa Škerbić also taunt
10gaws if gamefreak were to make sceptile a physical attacker from the start he’d be goin places right now
I’d run a leaf blade, crunch, thunder punch, dragon claw set
This is the first time I've actually seen you upload a video of you doing a doubles battle. I hope you'll be doing more of these. 😁

LMFAO,
I’m still so confused that greninja got one shot from an ice beam
enemy landed all the hurricanes and stone edges
viz cant even hit a leafstorm 95% acc 😂
it's 90% acc actually
That's why we can all agree that 7 generation was the best era for PvP in all the Pokémon franchise!
mega sceptile: *comes out*

sceptile is such a badass, just wish he was a physical attacker and had a different ability as a mega
I've been waiting for Mega Sceptile. Nice job.
M-sceptile + nice music= awesome video!
It‘s just so pleasing to see Mega Sceptile especially his shiny form in HD
I like the physical SD set more in singles.
Especially since it gives me the option of Dragon Tail.
That Work Up, Nature's Gift set is so fun to watch though.
Why use negative priority on 145 Speed Mega-Sceptile tho?

Its all fun and games until magearna is send out
Mega sceptile is heavily underrated
Lol ultra bursting that dawn wings necrozma
Sceptile: yeah okay, perish
Bopped LOL, always loved Sceptile, love it's shiny and mega, imagine if it got a move to up its SpAtk, would've been crazy
Great vid bro always enjoying these!
Physical Scpetile is one of the most underrated sets tbh
Yeah......
He /she will sweep after a sword dance

Turns out this sceptile dominates both attack and sp.attack
I use a physical attacking mega sceptile and he just sweeped the whole squad of 3 of my friends in pixelmon after using swords dance
I really like Sceptile it's my favorite grass type starter.
Mine's Snivy but Sceptile's cool too! Love him thanks to Emerald.
@Noa Škerbić Serperior is where it's at 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Snivy simps
jk smugleaf ftw
When in the hands of an amazing trainer, M-Sceptile is an absolute killing machine
The person who had that Greninja was unfort to not get the automatic KO with the Water Shuriken
Water Shuriken wrecks Mega Sceptile in the anime

10:15 Sceptile using Drain Punch Looked Pretty cool
That second fight was truly entertaining.
I used to do a double battle and would always have a pokemon continuously using discharge because of lightning rod and hoping Sceptile would sweep
That Tapu Bulu must've been choice banded. There's no way that a Wood Hammer would do that much without one. Even then, it's pretty insane that it almost finished off a 4x resistant mega pokemon that was not even at half health
Next one you can do a 2016 tec terrakion whimsicott, with beat up is pretty much gg
How to win battles:
Dont use any attacks except for other pokemon and just moves that help during the battle
The Tri-Attack burn at the end of the first battle was savage old school strategic goodness. Tri-Attack, savage Dugtrio strategy since Generation 1.
Pokemon - a full team wipe with equal stats is almost impossible
Sceptile - hold my beer
Haha the shiny moltres named sunburnt made me laugh more than it should have..

just don't put it in the cold ok?

That megalo strike back remix tho.like +
Sceptile is an amazing pokemon and you can't change my mind.
10:17 that solo though
To this day, it baffles me why they didn't give it contrary. Mega sceptile with contrary could've been HORRIFYING.
Please, post more normal battles or low tiers vs high tiers with you're narration. Is more interesting ;)
3 ubers for the first foe? That person has no honor
