Araquanid casually having the most raw power behind its attacks and the game completely skipping over that in the description...

[@peter7596]

The oricorio team was so creative, love to see it

[@Endershock1678]

I’ve played against a few similar teams. The first time, I didn’t know what Oricorio did and Swords Danced in front of it as it set up a quiver dance and skill swapped. I let it get like 3 quiver dances and gave their Flamigo a Sword Dance because I was so confused but then won because I had Belly Drum iron hands in Trick Room with Sinistcha in the back and Clef healing it.

[@Short_Bloom]

I can't believe that Araquanid has 70 base attack and still manages to hit like a truck going at full speed.

[@Jaccobtw]

Its ability

[@Short_Bloom]

I know about Water Bubble but still. It's pretty wild don't you think?@@Jaccobtw

[@unnderneath]

water bubble shifu

[@delibird3505]

@@unnderneath i mean Araquanid does get Entrainment so

[@kaneremorales9343]

Add rain to that and see what happens!

[@kaseywahl]

Love me some Porygon2. Such a gem, and an homage to my favorite generation. I'm a Johto citizen through and through. :)

[@gilvaderxshin402]

Loved that you are doing early Reg F. ❤

[@dim3920]

Beautiful. Love your videos ❤

[@Simipour1]

Hey I just got 13th at Liverpool Regionals with this team, thanks for the video and team!

[@jamesonmartin8151]

I used to have a Copycat Dancer team back in Reg A. The idea is that you can revelation dance, copycat, and then oricorio will revelation dance again. so its a very powerful combo but TR kills it

[@cyberrb25]

I guess I can understand how the bug with Booster-Proto/Quark-Neutralising Gas happened. Most likely, Booster checks if the user has the ability, but doesn't check if thw ability is suppressed. I'd like to see if Gastro Acid would've also been unusable with that (maybe forcing a Trick Booster)

[@readwarninglabel]

Interesting how well Landorus pairs with porygon2

[@ecstaticbutter9164]

Is Minior in the game yet? I’d love to see that! ⭐️ 🪨

[@winterknightvgc]

My beloves, the spider and duck❤

[@TheOldport]

Hi James what do you think of excadrill this format?

[@tomithy_lo]

My opinion probably isn't as well thought out as his, but in my opinion it's best feature is that in sand it out speeds and one shots flutter mane

[@k9guy]

good looking thumbnail

[@remokonyogurt]

Hey James dunno if you want to update the title for YT search but it says "VCG" 😄

[@jameswbaekpkmn]

Update: rental code?

[@Kasaaz]

Would two Oricorio just be Infinite Revelation Dance?

[@twoscoopsbry]

Try it 😂

[@delibird3505]

It doesn't. Dancer cannot copy moves that another Pokemon with Dancer uses(sorry if it you were making a joke, I'm bad at telling if they are or not)

[@Kasaaz]

​@@delibird3505 I genuinely wasn't sure how it worked. If it was anyone else but Game Freak I'd assume they didn't... but you never know with them.

[@graemeblakely6688]

It is not
I used 4 oricorio as my indigo disk playthrough team, and ran into an NPC running 2 oricorio. It was a LOT of quiver dancing but not infinite quiver dancing

[@obey_giant]

Exactly what I was thinking 😭

[@ghoxorhs4609]

Don't bother. He somehow manages to mispronounce like half of the words in pokemon

This is the softest TR team ever lmao nothing says trick room like scarf lando and specs flutter mane xD
