@person person wait wtf I think u misunderstood what I was trying to say, I meant I appreciate tyranitar representing rock types because after the horrendous design that is golem, I thought there was no hope, I’m not arguing for golem.
Garchomp has coverage for all its weaknesses, iron head, poison jab, brick break, flamethrower, dragon moves. It was always a dominant force and in Uber tier it wasn’t overshadowed by the abundance of legendary Pokémon
Flamethrower is a special move. Garchomp is a physical attacker. Ice Pokémon, unless they have a secondary type making them quad weak to fire moves, would annihilate Garchomp.
@@Prim0rdiaL7 bruh, my comment is 2 years old. Also, my post shows that it has more than just flamethrower for ice types, even if it’s hit 4* super effective unless it’s a ice shard from something like mamoswine it’s not like the chance to out speed is bad
Imagine being Dragonite, the OG Pseudo-Legendary, in Gen 1. You're the only Dragon Type, so you're the only Pokémon in the game with Dragon STAB. A shame that the only Dragon type move in Gen 1 was Dragon Rage, which did a fixed 40 damage.
Oh yeah and hyper beam skipped recharge turn if it resulted in KO, which 134 base atk surely helped with. But even that had absolutely nothing on agility wrap sweeping almost your entire team. 👍
Wolfey's train of thought astounds me. How can you have that much running through your head so quickly? So many stats, variables, and equations. This is why I use and tweak his teams and ideas to my own liking instead of building my own. I've been playing twice as long as him, essentially since the beginning, and will never ever be close to his level.
I remember reading your comment the first time I watched this video, which IIRC was the first Wideo I saw- and for some reason it stuck with me, probably because I was becoming friends with a bunch of people who are the same way, so much is going through their brains and it would astound me. It's kinda nice to have found you again, haha, still astonished by the crazy things people can process! XD
People's brains are wired differently my dude. I've been playing card-games all my life. Started with Yugioh as a child, transitioned to Magic the Gathering as a teen/young adult, Hearthstone when it came out. Poker Texas Hold'em, of course, once I hit University. I, and many others like me, remember thousands upon thousands of cards we have played with. Names, levels, stats, attributes, abilities, keywords, triggered abilities, artworks, names of artists who drew said artworks, even the fucking flavour text sticks some times. It's just the way it is. Summon the Dark Magician enough times, and the fact he is a Level 7, Dark Attribute, Spellcaster monster with 2,500 ATK and 2,100 DEF, with the flavour text "The ultimate wizard in terms of attack and defense", WILL get etched in the back of your head for eternity. Or, in Magic the Gathering, resolve a Path to Exile, or a Cryptic Command (a card with 4 different modes on it that everyone who plays Magic competitively knows by heart) 150+ times and..it's over. You remember that shit for life. Same with Pokemon. People who are just good at learning stats...are good at learning stats.

Crown Tundra Garchomp set:Dragon Dance/Swords Dance/Protect,Dragon Claw/Draco Meteor,Earthquake/High Horsepower(I think chomp will get High Horsepower),and finally Fire Fang/Protect/Swords Dance
Fun fact: gen 2 was supposed to be the last gen, and from gen 3 onward was when Pokémon were starting to be created with the idea of competitive play and longevity in mind, specially with the introduction of abilities, so it makes sense that both of the pseudos of that gen have had an immense impact on the meta, with salamance being banned from gen 4 ou and metagross being, well, metagross. Further more a big thing that happened was gen 1 and 2 power creep(tyranitar being an exception) just take a moment to consider that salamence is a straight up better dragonite until he got extreme speed and multiscale. That being said, every single pseudo legendary is amazing in their own right, with both kommo-o and goodra being major threats in UU and dragonite being a beast in ou ( or at least they were before the snap).
You should make a “most annoying pokemon to go up against” tier list. The tiers could range from “Ugh” to “I want to DC” but that’s up to you. Keep up the good content
Dragonite has always been one of my favorites, so I’m constantly trying to work it into my team. Multi scale weakness policy and friend guard eviolite clefairy is one of my favorite combos.
Honestly it’s such a good Pokémon that’s put so low, it’s pathetic how other poke-tubers make kommo-o look bad when it isn’t. It’s literally a beast if you choose the right moves like clanging scales
But his Stat distribution kinda sucks, he's not great in any thing he's just decent at everything, which isn't great but it gives you more options for what to run ig?
Kommo-o is alright, but the set you posted doesn't increase it that much, its walled by chansey/blissey, but thats in the sense of whether you're talking about doubles or singles.
@@hamio8723 tbf anything special is walled by those two bolbs if they don’t have a strong physical move or has a move like secret sword. Or trick choice item.
Day 1 of leaving earnest compliments for Wolfey's wideos: I really enjoy your tier wideos not only for the rankings but also the insight from a staple in top-tier competitive Pokemon for the past decade. The level of insight and breadth of knowledge on display is truly amazing and has really helped me get back into Pokemon in recent months. Keep up the great work!
I tried so hard to make a Kommo-o team in 2018, 2019, and this year, it’s just so hard to make him work. It’s unfortunate because I personally love Kommo-o, and I want him to work, but he’s just honestly not quite good enough.
Gamefreak: we have introduced fairy type to nerf dragon type pokemon Most used pokemon across all battlespot formats: Garchomp i don remember if this was ORAS or XY
Kommo-o is probably the most versatile it has, so many sets, and moves options. At least in singles it's pretty good, if it's not good in vgc, it's beyond me because I don't know vgc, but in singles it can be a real threat.
I love kommo-o and even as someone who started with gen 1, it‘s probably my 2nd favorite pseudo and i‘d love wolfey using it. i know you can make it good wolfe :(
I agree tbh and I feel like he isn’t really trying to show the good stuff in them but more like popularity, the top ones are quite popular so it’s obvious at the top but goodra is actually good but I prefer kommo-o over it but honestly it’s a brilliant pokemon
A lot of content that would be awesome in terms of tier list is ranking every pokemon in a type competitively, and only include final evolutions with the exception of viable eviolite users and such. So for example, "Ranking Every Ghost-Type Pokemon Competitively "
There's no officially classified in-game, "pseudo-legendary" is a fan term. In Japanese they call it the "600 club" (but in Japanese) after their BST. The closest thing we have to an official term is a Japanese phrase meaning "late bloomer", which was used in marketing for a range of plushies for the pseudo legendaries.
It’s interesting that Inner focus is considered better than multi scale as multi scale was one of the main reasons it was so prolific in singles back in gen 5
I remember beating all frontier challenges in Pokemon Platinum with my reliable trio Tyranitar, Metagross, and Garchomp, gosh those three make such a great team. And ever since gen 4 it has been a mandatory for me to have those three again in my party, they're just too good to miss out on
Metagross is one of my top 3 favorite pokemon to use, and it has a great shiny as well. I'm definitely going to use it with a weakness policy + bulldoze Heliolisk once it's added in the royal tundra dlc.
Love the tier lists Wolfey! My brother created a spreadsheet of all the current VGC legal pokemon in order of highest total base stats. HOWEVER, the calculations excluded the lower offensive stat of each pokemon being that most pokemon are not mixed attackers (Ex. Tyranitar total base stats excluding special attack). Not ground breaking information, but it could lead to an interesting discussion.
I’ve started using Garchomp with Blunder Policy. Swords Dance, Iron Tail, Dragon Rush, and Earthquake. I either hit for massive damage, or I miss and double my speed.
@@davidreynolds9189 Never thought of it that way, I was thinking in a one on one battle where you have more advantage but if it misses they might use a 100 accuracy super-effective move and have STAB multipliers and end your Garchomp if it doesn't have the right bulk
Could rank the trio's - we know landorus is gonna be s but be interesting to see the rest. Also be an interesting follow up to the "best types" wideo if you did the best bug type, best dragon, best fairy etc
Hi Wolfe, here's a couple video suggestions you've probably gotten 100 times already: 1. Team Preview Guide (looks like youve done this 2 years ago but maybe revisit?) 2. Ability Tier List Cheers :)
Giving Goodra Mega might help it. Adding 40 to def,50 to sp def and 50 to sp attack and lower 40 in speed and gooey as ability for mega might make it viable much more.
Also note Tyranitar’s Base ability Sandstream summons a sandstorm which has a hidden ability in itself that it increases the Sp Def of Rock Pokémon by an extra 50%. Run that with assault vest and you have a Sp Wall with good offensive power.
One thing about Tyranitar that I think is interesting and that I've never heard anyone talk about is that it kind of breaks the rule of a base stat total of 600 for pseudo legendary Pokémon due to its ability, which multiplies it's special defense by 1.5. shout-out to my favorite Pokémon ✌️
I mean that because of its special defense boost from sandstream, more often than not its special defense is, practically speaking, more than the base 100 that it appears to be
Why? I love seeing an UWU pink dancer with their leg peaking from underneath her fluff demolish a fighting dragon who looks like it eats babies for breakfast
The following Pseudo-legendary Pokemon have double weaknesses: Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Garchomp, Hydreigon, and Kommo-o. Hydreigon and Kommo-o are both double weak to Fairy. Dragonite, Salamence, and Garchomp are all double weak to Ice. Tyranitar is double weak to Fighting.
Can we remember that Galarian darmanitan's absurd damage would kill most of this guys so if they start dominating the meta Galarian darmanitan will pop off

why they introduce a dragon/fighting type in a generation dominated by fairies
Good question
Cause, it wouldnt be as good as it would if it was 4-5 gen
Musha4DaWin no ice weakness.
Would have been way too difficult to deal with
Because it was based on a dragon in Hawaiian mythology as well as Maori fighting styles
Looks more like it would be a Dragon/Normal type.. because of the sound inspiration.. but maybe it would clash with Drampa

It’s interesting that Inner focus is considered better than multi scale as multi scale was one of the main reasons it was so prolific in singles back in gen 5
I remember beating all frontier challenges in Pokemon Platinum with my reliable trio Tyranitar, Metagross, and Garchomp, gosh those three make such a great team. And ever since gen 4 it has been a mandatory for me to have those three again in my party, they're just too good to miss out on
You could do a video ranking your favorite pokémon based on how good they are competitively.
Day 14 of thanking Mr. Wolfe Glick for the fantastic content he provides.
@@WolfeyVGC OwO
That's probably one of the most wholesome comments I've ever seen.
@@dzigayu4944 Thanks :)
You spent 26 minutes talking about 9 pokemon, what a legend
How does he do it
These wideos are so educational! I never knew Kommo-o was pronounced "Cow-moo"
“If everyone is S tier, no one will be” SyndromeVGC
Ranking with megas
Salamence would be SSS+
Metagross is one of my top 3 favorite pokemon to use, and it has a great shiny as well. I'm definitely going to use it with a weakness policy + bulldoze Heliolisk once it's added in the royal tundra dlc.
Love the tier lists Wolfey! My brother created a spreadsheet of all the current VGC legal pokemon in order of highest total base stats. HOWEVER, the calculations excluded the lower offensive stat of each pokemon being that most pokemon are not mixed attackers (Ex. Tyranitar total base stats excluding special attack). Not ground breaking information, but it could lead to an interesting discussion.
I’ve started using Garchomp with Blunder Policy. Swords Dance, Iron Tail, Dragon Rush, and Earthquake. I either hit for massive damage, or I miss and double my speed.
You mean hit for massive damage or miss and risk dying?
@@acheronpls11037 mostly trying to predict an opponents setup or switch.
@@davidreynolds9189 Never thought of it that way, I was thinking in a one on one battle where you have more advantage but if it misses they might use a 100 accuracy super-effective move and have STAB multipliers and end your Garchomp if it doesn't have the right bulk
Thank you Wolfey for daily content
Could rank the trio's - we know landorus is gonna be s but be interesting to see the rest.
Also be an interesting follow up to the "best types" wideo if you did the best bug type, best dragon, best fairy etc
When he put Garchomp in S-tier, I was fucking pumped. Garchomp is awesome
I love the tier list videos can’t wait everyday
Dragapult is probably my favorite psudeo legendary. It just looks so fricken cool and I'm glad that it's a good Pokemon.
I love these ranking videos not because I care about the ranks I just love listening to Wolfe talk about Pokémon
I LOVE my Metagross, would still use it even if its stats weren't cracked. It's just such a cool tank of a Pokemon
I wanna see a video where Wolfey ranks all the members of the agency.
Am still rocking with Hydreigon in the first season of VGC2020. really good with Lifeorb 😊
A good thing about Clangorous Soul is it works with the item Throat Spray.
Kommo-O has a move that increases all its stats for some recoil that allows it a great mix attacking sweeper for Singles
Hi Wolfe, here's a couple video suggestions you've probably gotten 100 times already:
1. Team Preview Guide (looks like youve done this 2 years ago but maybe revisit?)
2. Ability Tier List
Cheers :)
for some reason, I thought you were going to include the pre evolutions too for a second, and was intrigued by a competitive analysis of goomy
Giving Goodra Mega might help it. Adding 40 to def,50 to sp def and 50 to sp attack and lower 40 in speed and gooey as ability for mega might make it viable much more.
I found this ranking video enjoyable because there were fewer pkmn you went in depth with. Thanks for the content Wolf
Heidregon in gen5 was so busted with pretty much no weakness
It has all of the weaknesses of dark and all of the weaknesses of dragon tho
I 80% agree with this list what I would change though is I would swap hydreigon and tyranitar
hydreigon actually learns flash cannon and if u set up nasty plot it could kill most fairy types
Love how every mon here is 4x weak to something except goodra, pult, and meta
Goodrapult
I think Dragonite with hidden ability--Multiscale is kinda good
Also note Tyranitar’s Base ability Sandstream summons a sandstorm which has a hidden ability in itself that it increases the Sp Def of Rock Pokémon by an extra 50%. Run that with assault vest and you have a Sp Wall with good offensive power.
One thing about Tyranitar that I think is interesting and that I've never heard anyone talk about is that it kind of breaks the rule of a base stat total of 600 for pseudo legendary Pokémon due to its ability, which multiplies it's special defense by 1.5. shout-out to my favorite Pokémon ✌️
It's still base 600, it just gets +1 Sp. Def.
what do you mean by that?
I mean that because of its special defense boost from sandstream, more often than not its special defense is, practically speaking, more than the base 100 that it appears to be
@@SDSwampert oki thank youuu
You should do a “ranking EVERY single Pokémon” wideo
Good wideo! Looking forward to some more battles on the ladder though!
I wouldn’t mind fairy being so strong against dragon, one of the coolest types, of half of them weren’t named winkydink and sparkleslarff
Why? I love seeing an UWU pink dancer with their leg peaking from underneath her fluff demolish a fighting dragon who looks like it eats babies for breakfast
Day 30 of asking Wolfey to do “Why Malamar is a Threat.” #SquidSquad #CalamariCrew
Only if what he says in the video is opposite of what is true
Woomy
The following Pseudo-legendary Pokemon have double weaknesses: Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Garchomp, Hydreigon, and Kommo-o.
Hydreigon and Kommo-o are both double weak to Fairy. Dragonite, Salamence, and Garchomp are all double weak to Ice. Tyranitar is double weak to Fighting.
Intro Tier List soon?
When he mentioned the randomized hydreigon not being disappointing, I felt that.
I'd love to see the ranking every Legendary video to complement this!
Can we remember that Galarian darmanitan's absurd damage would kill most of this guys so if they start dominating the meta Galarian darmanitan will pop off
I'm happy to see the S tier. I love all of them so much.
Commenting on Wolfey’s wideo for it to get into RUclips’s circulation algorithm! I remember finding a shiny bagon while trying to complete my Pokédex in Pokémon sun. I named him skittles.
i really want dragonite back already 😓 so many ideas on how I'd hse it
Dragonite with HD boots would be fire!
@@sreenaths6829 havent seen any entry hazards in vgc yet tho this gen for some reason so maybe in singles
Aren't we missing Arcanine here?
Goodra is probably my favorite pokemon of all time I think the anime really helped with that
Day 10 of asking for "Why Stonjourner is a threat"
