why is your audio so weird
Bug is my favorite type.
Thank you now I can make Best Bug gym
I love these videos. Do ground type next there are so many good ground types
Can we get a best steel type Pokémon competitively video?
Going on a rant about not calling it "Shed Ninja" and then immediately having it labelled as Shedninja after the rant is peak
I noticed that two
Edit: IT'S SEPOSED TO BE TOO NOT TWO, I THOUGHT AUTOCORRECT WAS SEPOSED TO FIX GRAMMAR, NOT BREAK IT!
Edit 2: I've just given up with atto correct at this point.
It's almost surely intentional, it drives people to comment on the video which boosts the algorithm.
i was confused....
Great joke to bring viewers attention. I had to rewind and make sure what's the correct form and now I will remember what is the correct one and will call it a ninja xD
Come on Wolf 😅
Obviously the correct answer is Tera Bug Incineroar
😂😂
I hope this joke never dies
Beat me to it
😂😂😂🤣🤣

I love the bug type's image of having a lot of weaknesses to overcome but being capable of greatness when placed in just the right niche. It feels like such good synergy between mechanics and narrative. One of my all time favorite types to use.
The main thing is that Bug is such a weak type that people rarely think “man, i gotta have that coverage against bug” until they get hit by a particularly good Scizor or Forretress or Shuckle. Don’t. Fuckle. With. Shuckle.
It also feels like bugs in real life tbh. They're small compared to the rest of the world, sure, but with variety they can be really good survivalists who have their own place in the wild.
@@AsaraBuck Exactly :D
@@AsaraBuck I mean they are the most successful group of animals ever and the most diverse numbers-wise with over a million species already
@@Slender_Man_186 Very few people see Bug Moves coming their way, specially from Bugs that usually don't use them, I remember OHKO'ing an Alakazam and several other psychic types once I swaped in a Heracross, they swap immediately to a psychic type expecting Close Combat and get hit by a STAB Megahorn.
Conversational Wolfe videos are so good, but these last two typing videos have been super complemented by their incredible editing. Just an awesome one-two punch between Wolfe and the editor.
Tera bug Incineroar
Ffs beat me to it how 🤣🤣
most original comment of all time
@@venti_al Ikr?
I would say this joke is getting old, but it's not even a joke
Tera bug raging bolt
There's something endlessly funny about having an actual major contender write documentaries. "Escavalier won worlds once... the guy brought it specifically to counter me" is both hilarious to hear and yet totally factual
I absolutely agree, you don't get to hear "me" in documentaries very often haha
@@Limomonwould be more funny if he refer to himself with his full name
"In fact, the only reason it's even on the podium is because of me, so I'm actually putting myself at #3"
Haven't finished the video, but I'm calling forretress top 3 for sure and probably top 1.
@@nemohimself2580 ope
Fun fact: The Scizor I used to Top Cut Salt Lake City Regionals, got removed at Round 2 for having the wrong Special Attack Stat.
How?
What?
same
@@nitro5247they have to type all the stats, EVs, and IVs in a chart for every single pokemon, and if even one stat is wrong, they can't use that Pokemon or will get disqualified. They probably wrote down an incorrect SpA stat and didn't review it too much
While I would like to know the story of how, best guess is cheating to have pokemon with move setups & stats prepped is easier than the 1h breeding & training it.
The Tapu lele-Accelgor strategy and the Shuckle-Mimikyu strategy sound super fun!
Bug type made for a really interesting video.
"please do not spell it "Shed Ninja""
Spells it as Shedninja seconds later. Brilliant.
Also he constantly says 'compeddndive'
Bro i thought i was tne only one who notice😂
Gotta be (successfull) rage bait
unrelated but i love your pfp
@@Voxet1 ty :]
It's kind of like this series is going in casual gameplay order. You covered the starters. Then the bugs so common in early game. I guess next would be either flying or normal, since those are common wild pokemon in the early game.
I would love a normal type video next :)
@valyxd9251 I think normal is next, with Electric, Flying, Fighting, Ground, Rock, and Psychic in some order after that, with Dark, Ghost, Steel, Ice, Poison, Fairy afterwards, ending off with Dragon type.
My vote is for Normal. There are so many standouts! P2, Lax, Ursaluna, Farigaraf, Smeargle.. heck even Clefairy would get an honorable mention. Polar opposite of how rare good bug types are.
He skipped the regional mammal and route 1 bird though
@@samt3412or do Dark, Steel, and Fairy last as they were added last
The editing on this channel is maybe some of the best I find on all of YT these days, definitely so for the Pokémon community. Huge kudos to the editors.
The editing is so good! And I can't even IMAGINE how long the videos must be to actually edit, but HELL it's cool to see the results!
Ironically enough, despite Wolfe saying theres not much good bug types, this is the longest "best pokemon of X type" video so far.
He had to take the proper amount of time to tell us how bad the Bug type is
@@Jigglypoop97 And how to pronounce Shedninja
With Pokémon like Rillaboom and Kyogre and Incineroar, he didn’t need too much explanation on why they were good, but for mons like Accelgor and Butterfree, he really has to justify why people were running them.
It's mostly because Wolfey needs to make up super niche excuses for why even the best bugs are terrible.
Because all of these bugs are so terrible they can barely be told apart. 😊
I think it's because they work on niches so you need to explain what they are instead of just going with "good offense, good stats" that is self explanatory
I love Shedninja. Man, shedninja. What a Pokémon shedninja is.
Beated me to the punch
Makes no sence why people spell it because sheds don’t exist in pokemon
truely, shedninja is the best. no one can beat shedninja
I prefer Kyrogue and Groundon.
@@pattycake520 And Rayzuaqa
Personally I really love these "Best Pokemon of each Type" videos as I dont play competitive myself but really enjoy your content and learning the History of the Competitive Scene is really interesting since I didnt start watching you until after ScVi came out.
I hope you continue these videos in the future.
I said this before, but your videos have really boosted on the editing value! It's super helpful for staying visually engaged while listening to the cool Pokemon analysis 😎
Another one of Butterfree's major wins was under the control of 9-year-old Simone Lim of Singapore, who won the 2020 Juniors division at the Oceania International Championships with one alongside a team of more common VGC mainstays - Tyranitar, Excadrill, Gyarados, Rotom-Heat and Whimsicott.
She actually made Butterfree her Gigantamax Pokemon, had it wear a Choice Scarf, and gave it a moveset of Pollen Puff, Sleep Powder, Hurricane and U-turn.
Eh
I still love the fact this exists. Kid wanted to use the butterfly and actually won 😂 Mad respect
And to add to that, Simone actually had some really good reads in that tournament. She's a queen!
Oh, that's dangerous
Almost 100% accurate stab hurricane sounds terrifying
18:53 If Wolfey is questioning what you are cooking with your team composition you know you are doing something truly wild.
Editor went ham in this video! Loved the Invincible joke lol
Bug types might not be the most powerful Pokémon competitively but since gen 5 and especially since gen 7 they have become one of the most fun types to use during a playthrough. Their diversity in second typing and design has made them a lot more interesting than in the first gens where there were few stand outs that were often crippled by very shallow move pools among other issues.
there's like a 100% chance he put the shedninja bit at the start of the video to get us to leave comments where we spell it shedninja because we think we're so funny and sassy and you know what im letting him have his engagement here u go wolfey
I actually think it’s because wolfey hires an editor instead of editing himself, so the editor thought it would be funny to immediately disregard what wolfey just said
Which it was
@@myriad3569 If it is the editor that would be hilarious.
The amount of shock I went through seeing Leech Life be turned into a decent move non-bug types were running in gen 7 was only beaten by the fact that I was actually thinking about using the new bug types without knowing stats and moves. They were just that awesome looking
Fr I adore charjabug and vikavolt
Gen 7 really had some bangers
Gen 7 is second only to gen 5 in terms of introducing a bunch of absolute banger bug types. Gens 8 and 9 didn’t introduce a lot but most of theirs were great too
Thanks for mentioning the previous 3 videos at the beginning. Made me realize I had somehow missed the fire video, so went back to watch.
I LOVE Volcarona and always draw the mon itself! Love watching your videos and always learn so much from them! Hope you keep making more! 😄
Imagine if they "nerf" U-turn down to 60 BP. That would be terrifying, but I would love to see Scizor getting better results outside of Smogon.
scizor hasn't really been relevant on smogon singles for a long time either
@@Pyritiein ou yea due to powercreep and overshadowing but its still very solid in uu
I think U-Turn should get a massive decrease in distribution honestly. Only bug types should be learning it to give a reason to use them over Pokémon with a better typing and u turn anyways.
It’s supposed to be a specific Dragonfly Maneuver which is mostly only performance by insects. In the anime, it’s shown the be the target using the force of their attack to propel off the enemy. I can vaguely get Pokémon like Lando learning it, and even some fighting archetypes, but why on earth does Maushold learn it?
@@Endershock1678 ohhh thats make sense. I always wondered why u-turn was a bug move
@@Endershock1678yeah same with not every water pokemon learning ice moves
Aesthetically speaking, bug types have so so many cool looking ones, especially in the later gens, hence probably pushing to coolest on average for pokemon types
From gen 4 onwards they really deoided to start adding cool bugs. Shoutout to Volcarona and Scolipede.
@@eeyuupHeracross and Scizor say hi.
@@eeyuup Shoutouts to Gen 7 adding Golisopod, Vikavolt, and the UBs as well
In the recent gens, I actually liked the designs of Lokix and Orbeetle. They grew on me early on. Also shoutout to special GMax Centiscorch.
@@josephbulkin9222 No they don't, they say "Heracross!" and "Scizor!" 🙄
Bruh, the editing is just phenomenal on these videos!!, even if someone isn't into competitive Pokemon very much, these are still highly enjoyable and extremely entertaining to watch!!!
the video editing was phenomenal, i really liked it
i thought scisor or shuckle would have beoon on spot 1 but volcarona took the cake
i love volcarona very muvh especially the shiny version and i used it quite a bit back in gen 6 with giga drain, people seem to ignore and sleep on this move
you can probably continue this series with all types and i guess the best start would be normal type
16:25 love the little detail on the Focus Blast description
I thought I was the only one who noticed that
Good catch
Wolfe: please don't spell it as "shedninja", it's "shedinja"
Also Wolfe: deckidooey, wenyasaur, jenjar, cinderatchi, arkaneenay
What about SlayKing😂😂😂
hey, he isnt adding letters that arent there
rejigajigajigajigas
@@ShadowSlith789how about "wideo?"
I loved this video, thank you for covering the best type. :) I agreed with the rankings, and even guessed a fair number of them before they were revealed. Also, whoever's doing the editing deserves a raise.
This is my favorite series of yours. Loved the Escalivier trivia. Psychic and Poison are among my favorite types and it would be cool to see a video on those. Rock I thought would be interesting as well.
Fun fact, tera electric shedinja with air balloon is incredibly broken, so broken that it was literally BANNED on showdown
LoL
But it wasn't Banded it ran an Air Balloon
@@Glory2Snowstar banned
That’s why it’s not in gen 9, period 😂
Uhh thousand arrows??
I feel like Shedinja would be good on a team to just sit on the 5th and 6th slots and hardly ever get used just to force people to play around it
Shedninja*
Love you content Wolfey, it's awesome to see how much you've progressed.
Hey wolfey, I really enjoy watching Pokemon content on the weekends and I just wanted to say good job on being so consistent with putting out videos recently. I know that must be challenging.
I don't disagree at all, but as a bug type fan, I'm legally obligated to be upset by the total absences of Heracross, Scolipede, Galvantula, Crustle, Scyther, Mega Beedrill, Mega Pinsir, Yanmega, Armando, Vespiquen, Vikavolt, Ribombee, Orbeetle, Centiskorch, Lokix, and ESPECIALLY GENESECT!!
WHAT THE HECK!?
Now that my legally obligated Uproar has ended;
Great video 😃
He never specifies but obviously he talks about doubles. If we are considering singles then yes, this debate cannot happen without mentioning Genesect first and foremost (one of the best single mons in general), Galvantula has seen a lot of play too, and Ribombee. As of now, Ribombee is in Gen 9 OU. With all the powercreep. Doing better than singles staples like Garchomp. Probably these three instead of Butterfree, Shuckle and Accelgor for singles.
@@unbound195 You seem to have missed the joke? I thought it was clear enough, sorry.
I already know that Wolfe is a doubles player, and I already understand the differences that make pokemon better in one format or another. I'm a competitive player, myself. Undoubtedly a significantly more casual one, but I do play both singles and doubles.
@@lunar9342 No no, I knew it was a joke, but I added what I did because you were kind of right anyway.
@@unbound195 Ah, okay. I apologize! I was under the impression that I was getting seriously critiqued for the joke 🤣
We love our buggy beasts so much that whenever we feel like it's slighted we get defensive lmao. Like a momma hen @@lunar9342
Fun fact in 2009 the Power Split Shuckle strategy mentioned in the video (but with Bronzong instead of Mimikyu) was used to win the Seattle Regional by Daniel Tapp, there's a video of the finals on YT.
Awesome video, Wolfey! I would love to see what you'd say is the best Steel type Pokemon. I do suspect it could be Zacian if it were given more time to thrive but that is also why I think it's an interesting type to explore for this type of video. With options like Aegislash, Metagross, and Heatran also in this category, I am genuinely curious to see what has seen the most results.
Love the more casual narration style in this one!
Let me guess, tera bug Incineroar?
I am stupidly happy to see Butterfree mentioned anywhere. My #1 favorite mon was mentioned, and it just makes me really happy. I went in sure it'd be nowhere, and yet!
I miss gigantamax Butterfree
Especially when you can make them into a pretty strong Pokemon if you know what to do.
Dang the editor went WILD on this one, props great video !
Haven't gone through all the comments but haven't seen anyone mention that focus blast description during the pheromosa segment, that was a nice touch
I only noticed because of this comment. So much is the actual stuff that when the Easter Eggs slip in, I miss half even though I'm looking for them.
The shedninja was a perfect bit to bait comment engagement lmao
One notable result missed for Scizor: Hayden McTavish won Senior Worlds in 2013 with Occa Berry Scizor.
I completely spaced that. Was an incredible set too. That worlds finals was my introduct to vgc. Remember starting the vod and the first thing I see is Aaron Zeng going wild in the audience for his little brother while wondering who he was. Now 11 years later and I am subscribed to him and watch his videos aroumd once a week or so.
Enjoying these vids, keep it up ! Worth watching and learning stuff. Also entertaining while eating lol
I'm so proud that Wolfe and I had the same idea to use Speed Swap Pheromosa on Calyrex-Ice.
Escavalier's move Fell Stinger that raises it's attack 3 stages when taking a ko is baller as hell too
But its too slow so not a good sweeper
@@saumyatyagi6763trick room baby
@@saumyatyagi6763 You can build around it with a trick room team.
I have to say i really enjoy these edits that are "imperfect" where Wolfe is definitely scripted but not all the uhhs are edited out and he just sounds more casual? Feels like old Wolfe with a little bit of polish
My absolute favourite of all the teams I used during gen 8 was built around hail with Arctozolt and Pheromosa with Blizzard. It held Specs but ran Close Combat for fighting STAB since it doesn't care about a defensively detrimental nature. I made it for an unofficial 6v6 doubles teambuilding contest, but it was fun and good enough to win a couple tournament rounds, so I also tweaked it for the ingame ladder. Bug is my favourite type so I love it whenever they get their time to shine. AV Slither Wing is my gen 9 secret weapon!
Really appreciate the more conversational videos...I enjoy hearing how the WORLD CHAMP processes things. Not just hearing his final answer, but hearing how he thinks through the game
Vivillon used to have access to a signature move called 'powder'. It was a status move that would trigger if the opponent used a fire-type move. Unfortunately, access to this move was taken from it, and it hasn't appeared on any other Pokémon. As a concept, it's pretty cool and I've never really seen it utilized. I'm sure it could've been interesting.
Essentially, if the target afflicted with 'powder' used a fire-type move, instead of dealing damage it would blow up in the user's face, dealing damage. I can understand why they got rid of it, it was such a niche move and a signature for a completely underused mon, but still. Give my man Vivillon a W.
Ice would be a fantastic type to give your Top 3 on. We know, historically, Ice Type SUCKS. But we also know that Ice Types have some unique techs, attacks and Pokemon in it. Would love to see your opinion on the best and not so best ones.
I also think ice would be pretty cool and if not ice possibly rock type
Tera Ice Incineroar
Definitely would love to see Ice type
Chien pao, mamoswine and articuno would be my bet
A similar case can be made for poison types, they generally don't do so well and are usually paired with bug types as the worst typings.
This videos editing was crazy good! Hope he does ground types next
I'd love to see you do normal or psychic next honestly! Maybe that's because I'm kind of new to vgc and my favorite pokemon to use is a psychic type, and my favorite pokemon of all time is a normal type. Trying to figure out how to make a porygon2 and reuniclus team work...haven't figured it out yet but I think I just need to do more research.
I'm not mad that you put Butterfree on here, I'm mad that you did so after MAKING CATERPIE CRY IN THE INTRO! You Monster!
Also who else came in expecting Volcorona and Scolipede? Gen 5 is really where the Bug Types started getting a power bump.
Yeah gen 5 was so good for many reasons and bettering the bug typing is one of them. Just sucks that Larvesta evolves so late and the mon dies to floating pebbles
1:02 Editor absolutely savage
Loved the vid absolute banger everytime and just like all your vids I always find new ways to use pokemon
Overall amazing video, ranting about shedinja and then spelling in wrong is funny, would love to see a video about the best Flying/Dark type next
Surprised he didn't mention Genesect, Mega-Pinsir or Kleavor. As a singles player these have been great Pokémon
Also mega beedrill
Was about to say Genesect. After gen 8 and not getting included in gen 9 I think people just forgot about it
If we're bringing up singles Galvantula had some good bits and Ribombee has an insanely strong niche in Ubers
Genesect is a mythical and has always been banned from vgc. Mega Pinsir is just not worth the mega slot and too frail. Stealth rock isn't as good in doubles so kleavor isn't as good either. They may be goated in singles but wolfe is exclusively talking about vgc in this ranking
This video is focused on doubles, and genesect has basically never even been legal in vgc
If moths are attracted to flames, but the moth is the flame, does that make Volcarona a narcissist?
Loved the editing of this video!
Always been loving the Best Type Pokemon videos! Super fun to see what the best type is and I really love the breakdowns
I think Emergency Exit should be tweaked to allow Golisopod to attack the attacker with whatever move was selected as it switches. It allows both sides to play smartly around it- if the golisopod is at ~60% HP, the opponent can attack into golisopod with a pokemon that resists or otherwise eats the hit from golisopod. The user of golisopod can set up good switch ins with pivot mons like amoongus or incineroar while positioning golisopod in a way that makes the exit part of emergency exit still worthwhile, and golisopod isn't shafted by an ability that hurts more than it helps because it still gets to attack even if it's being forced out at an inopportune time.
makes sense, great editing this episode!!! ice or rock type please
Dude I haven’t watched your content in awhile, but holy crap your editing has gotten absolutely insane. I wasn’t even that interested in this topic, just on while doing other things, but I watched the whole thing from how good the editing and commentary was
Bug Types are by FAR my favorites, I really hope for Legends Z-A to give them some more love
Ribombee always had a special place in my heart since SM days. Neat typing, solid speed, decent special attack, and a solid move in Pollen Puff made for a fun pokemon to use. Only shame is the very frail defensive stats and the lack of move pool, but I still liked using it whenever I got the chance
It's funny how dominant bug/steel is as a typing is every form of play, having so many resistances and only 1 weakness is just so strong, especially after the addition of fairy type, cool video!
Favorite Type. Mono-bug for life haha! Awesome vid.
Volcarona is my favorite pokemon of all time! The way it was introduced in the anime, the game, high level move requirements and design are simply incredible.
Vulvarona
Volcarona is also my favorite pokemon of all time!
🤝🏽
I think covering Dragon next would be fitting, going from the historically worst type to the historically best one
Great video man! I love my bug types, no matter that I never used them 😀
Great to see my favorite pokemon at the tippy top. Volcarona also just has an awesome design IMO
"Please i'm begging you don't spell it Shedninja!"

@@anotherthing XD you went all out
10:02 everyone is talking about the shedninja misspelling, but is no one talking about how good wolfey looks during the sponsor?? The hair, the shirt just suits wolfey so well.
the Ragnarok Online emotes and the Spore dying sound effect surprised me, kudos to whoever was editing this lol.
So, back in early gen IV, I actually used power trick Shuckle at a local tournament, with its main partners being life orb alakazam as the setter and clefable when the ala went down.
It worked decently well, but it was hard to win sets with it, once people knew what I was doing.

@@Omevocand I'm fairly confident it's because it's just more fun hahaha. As a certified stick in the mud, these kinds of bits make me relax a bit and chill
As a kid, I used to believe that Volcarona was a legendary Pokemon in Black and White due to the way you obtained it in the sand ruins.
And the fact that larvesta took forever to evolve
@@geckohecko but Legendary Pokemons never evolved...(except Cosmog Line)
I used Shedinja throughout 2019 to major (for me) success, including 4-3 at the OCIC (Moon Series), where one of my losses was to Eduardo Cunha who won the event, and one of my wins was against then-World Champion Paul Ruiz. In Ultra Series, however, I used it alongside Scarf Cloud Nine Golduck (and NO Mega despite them being legal) and got consistent top 4 results at Premier Challenges and an MSS, which I'm proud of.
I also used Scizor in 2013 Nationals in Australia to make top 8! (mine was the team with Maractus)
Big type is so slept on I think this is the perfect entry point to a series where you go through every type even though you already addressed the starters essentially. Also spacing out these breakdowns help keep the content going for a while just start with types that are not dominant like Big was
1 minute in and Wolfe's editor is already trolling.
this is my favorite series on his channel as of late, can’t wait to see the next type he chooses. I love these history-of type vids
You did a type triangle with the first 3 vids so keep that vibe and do the best flying type next and then rock or whatever order you wanna do
Golisopod is my fav bug type, so glad it got an honorable mention!
1:03 Editor knew exactly what they were doing 😂
Honestly for how much Wolfe finds the Bug type weak and lacking, he still makes videos on it super high quality and well done. The edits and research is so respectable
i love your editor for messing with you with the shedninja and the fact that they clearly love ragnarok online with how often they used the emotes + sound effects from it 😂
Loved this. I'm not a competitive player, but I like watching competitive. When I play the games, I always want to find and use the best new bug for as long as possible. In my mind, bugs fit the idea of a "pocket monster" the best.
The choice of Relic castle bgm to talk about Volcarona is just 🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌 that music gets me every time
Yessssss this was my most requested type video! Scizor has been my fav Pokémon ever so this placement was justice.
Oddly enough, I don’t like bugs in real life but for some reason I absolutely LOVE bug types on Pokémon. Scizor, Masquerain, Ribombee, Pheremosa, Leavanny, Genesect, Lokix, Buzzwole to name a few. :)
Understandable, bug type Pokémon are made cooler than their irl counterpart.
Oh I actually thought we'd have Galvantula in honorable mentions. I guess it didn't do much in the 2v2 format.
For the top 3, not that surprising. Nice video, thanks you!
Your video quality has really gone up! Superb editing
The bug type is my favorite type in the game so I feel so glad that you picked it for the first of this kind of videos after the 3 starting types. Great work as always Wolfey!
Okay the invincible cut was just *chefs kiss* 2:47
Yo, shoutouts to the editor for all of the clean special effects! Very good looking vid
Love this style of editing keep it up
