Bkc is the only RUclipsr who can talk about Pokémon, the Soviets and Czechoslovakia in the same scentence and have it make sense. The little left field examples that make a surprising amount of sense are one of the reasons he's my favourite mons creator
The Best part is the bold faced confidence with which BKC says these things. Everyone knows that it's a joke, but to someone from the outside it would seem like he is 100% serious.
What did you expect ? After all it was Franco who pitched the idea of making the third legendary of Gen 5 an Ice type because he wanted to increase the ice caps in the Pyrenees to boost Spain's winter tourism as it was a glaring weakness of the Spanish economy
I mean he was a believer in freeing kyurem-w in bw OU for a loooong time. Though now's the first time I hear him proposing this for a reason other than nuking the tier for fun.
here's my faustian bargain to make BW OU great again Unban Reshiram + W Kyurem Unban Rain + Swift Swim (and other such weather + ability combos) imagine the chaos
Some things I think about when I compare Kyurem White and Black is that… one of them completely ruined by Scald burns, the other can still function… another fact is that one of them’s strongest STAB locks it in, which makes it much much more vulnerable to revenge killing… lastly, one of them doesn’t get a fire move to destroy steels and they can’t even be used as temporary pivots like Scizor to BP it
10/10 intro dude! I definitely remember when BW2 came out and ppl tried to shoehorn Specs Kyu-W onto teams until they realized it's a nightmare to get it in safely. Thinking more about it makes it seem like a fun experiment. I can however see Specs Ice Beam being a problem.
When the specs ibeam hits like 95% as hard as specs latios draco, it probably will be an issue, yeah. The specs draco, though? That's going to be absolute chaos. It chunks spdef heatran for like over 40% on the switch. It also has stupid coverage with focus blast and fusion flare, so anything that tries to switch in risks being instantly nuked. In short, it's going to be a bit tough to get it in safely, sure, but it's going to do band kyu-b shenanigans while not needing to lock into outrage and while actually having coverage to hit anything with its primary offensive stat (instead of only having resisted moves to click on stuff like ferro and drill)
I could see reshiram being tested, but idk about white kyurem. I just want reshiram to be given a chance because that pokemon has been in a horrific state for over a decade
The fuck am i doing at 11:28pm on a Thursday night watching a RUclips video about rashiram and kyurem white in OU. I have homework that's due tomorrow. What am i doing 😭.
He kind of did that with the tornt unban, scald ban tourny that was mentioned in another video. But I think that's before he actually believed this take to be a possibility
Hands down the biggest tragedy since the fall of the Library of Alexandria is Reshiram and K-White being awful as they're both a top 5 design of all time.
The teams you showed at the start that have some unusual choices make me think more and more that at this point ppl that play in BW tours take theyr teams from pokemmo OU Also great intro! I still like the Ryan Gosling ones more tho
You know, if we saw Kyurem-White or Reshiram in OU, there's a decent chance they'd run Dragon Tail for Blissey since their coverage is already pretty good, and that would probably make the hazard game a lot worse, so I'm not too sure about that
I think the only problem with unbanning Reshiram and Kyurem-White is that you would be able to run both of them on the same team, and that would probably be too much for the metagame to handle
Individually they both sound like nightmares to deal with. Specs blue flare from resh in Sun damn near requires a quad resist with max spdef investment to not get absolutely bodied. And then specs kyurem-w probably has the single most powerful Draco in the game
Next BKC Video: How to review a team on team preview by looking at the colors alone? Kyu-W and reshiram have a ton if flaws but they can do a bunch of things combined, they mostly make dragon teams more robust to mamoswine and they might also allow you to play magless and use 5 dragons or something like a excadrill. In sun Reshiram can break heatran without using a secondary stab or coverage and even if the weather setter comes in, they will be burned 17% of the time. KW is not neccesarily a good sun abuser but it can check some pokemon in a pinch.
Compare this to say, dropping Landorus back into the metagame. Landorus absolutely wrecks balance cores and generally doesn’t have switch ins, or at least not viable ones. Or worse, imagine something like Lugia. Sure, it probably doesn’t sweep you and it can be pressured, but at the same time, it warps the metagame to an insane degree. Imagine a metagame where if you don’t have a choice band Kyurem Black you can’t kill the enemy Lugia. Or fucking Skymin. Jesus. Any one of those would be a lot more unhealthy compared to Kyurem White or Reshiram. So who knows?
BKC really wants to see BW OU burn (not that I blame him), but I think there's merit to this thought. Deoxys-D was in UU for a time before people realized that was a bad idea, but it also sees zero play in Ubers. I think some suspect testing could be in order.
I haven't finished watching so maybe you cover this in the video, but personally I'd prefer not to see any major metagame shake-ups at all. I play BW OU a lot and one of the things I love is that it's relatively stable, the number of strategies is good, and the number of Pokes that are relevant is relatively low meaning you, generally, can cover your matchups pretty decently with the right team. I have 0 idea if the metagame would be "better" or "worse" with Kyurem-White and Reshiram, but what I do know is I would prefer a slightly "worse" meta that is more stable over a slightly "better" meta that shifts around. At least in terms of older generations that have had plenty of time to settle, it's just kind of like . . . I just want it to be what it is and be able to come back to it and see that it's the same as it always was. Sure, maybe the meta naturally evolves over time but the core things that are in the meta hasn't changed. That's definitely my preference, emotionally.
We should let Ho-Oh into OU for a while and see what happens. New offensive Sun abuser? Solid answer to psychic spam? Giving Terrak more value in the tier? Who says no?
With every supposedly “Kyurem-W proof team” you’ve shown 5/6 members get oneshot by dragon/ice/fire coverage and if the sixth member is named ttar he has to pray the focus blast comes out sideways. It’s not even comparable to Kyurem-B who has to rely on its far worse special stat and hp fire for similar coverage (even then, ferro can tank one hp fire from Kyurem-B, what’s it doing against a fusion flare?) and gets ruined by burn, and has zero physical ice coverage and a less spammable dragon move. Even Kyurem-B goes mixed sometimes because special is that much better than physical with its moveset, how does anything stand up to a full special Kyurem-W?
@@BKCplaysPokemon Sure, but even in the game you showed the guy opposing the kyurem-b just sac'd an 8% poisoned lati and stalled it out with ferro. What play can you do to kyurem-w that is even comparable to that? I'm looking at the BW viability list, nothing takes it on. If blissey is somehow viable again, well that'll be the first I've heard of it. Not only is draco freer than outrage, it's just way stronger since it's before the gen 6 nerfs. Non-specs beam into draco takes out full spdef gastro.
Kind of unrelated, but when and why did everyone suddenly decide blissey was better than chansey again? I remember blissey never seeing the ligbt of day in gens 5-7, but now people use blissey in current gen and this trickled back into old gens.
The story of the date is an obvious lie. If this happened he'd still be sitting at the table with her right now. Or using the restaurants toilet for his signature toilet breaks
I love how arceus-any has a 50% win rate *because it's used on 100% of teams*

BW OU is more important than school :)
the more important task
I put these on to listen to while I do my term papers. BKC is getting me through this term.
Wild to see Torn I in OU when it has just recently dropped to PU in gen 9
and people still say gen5 is severly powercrept

Ok BW OU topic
You know what that means folks
Time for the Ryan Gosling Counter
Edit: i am unfortunately reporting a grand total of 0 Ryan Gosling
actually you should run a tournament with what you think the ideal gen 5 OU is, I think that would be really fun and interesting to watch.
He kind of did that with the tornt unban, scald ban tourny that was mentioned in another video. But I think that's before he actually believed this take to be a possibility
Gracias BKC por recordarme que tengo el cartucho de Pokémon Blanco original que compró mi abuelo de contrabando en aquellos tiempos ❤

BKC's incredible story-crafting skills on display at the start of this video once again.
I think wanting to ban drizzle after banning thundy-t, latios, keldeo and scald is more unhinged than that

Why the fuck not. You've convinced me bro.
BKC now just wants to wreck BW OU
So glad to see that my boi Accelgor was used. It didn't win, but at least it was used.
We gotta lock him up that rizz is too strong
Compare this to say, dropping Landorus back into the metagame. Landorus absolutely wrecks balance cores and generally doesn’t have switch ins, or at least not viable ones.

Or fucking Skymin. Jesus.
Any one of those would be a lot more unhealthy compared to Kyurem White or Reshiram. So who knows?
It appears yesterday's video's girl introduced you to a key word on your vocabulary from now on. Awesome x3

Didn’t watch the video but I agree
i started the video thinking "aint no way this is reasonable"
now i think gen 5 OU is not reasonable as a whole
Why does arceus have 100% usage? I would be interested in a vid on that
Cuz it's gud
Kyurem white would push heatran usage
The date? Ana De Armas
What if Asphere was in BW Ubers
Bkc has gome to far
So we went from BAN KELDEO to no no, maybe Kyurem White is balanced?? Like bromie WUT
I still think keldeo is broken, but seeing as it's not getting tested...
Keldeo would probably be unironically better than both tbh
Didn’t Cloyster and Volcarona get tested recently?
Ban latios
regarding the intro...
where do you find these women?
Why are your replays always that bad looking??
