Paul Jesus I wasn't asking for advice on a play, this is my FIRST COMPETITIVE GENERATION, I had never fought an azelf before so I just said when I saw the team previews "so, what does this thing run"
dear shofu- had an idea for a new duel system for you to challenge yourself with pick 6 ppl whether subscribers or from comment sections each one gets, trains, and gives moves to a pokemon and gives it to you then without looking at stats abilties or moves you go into battle
if 6 ppl did it it'd be epic personally i would hand over my clutch vaporeon move set: acid armor, toxic, wish, protect left overs for item thing tanks through and stalls for dayz
I had no idea what Azelf was capable of until I battled one in a double battle and it used a Normal Gem-boosted Explosion at the start of the battle. I was so dumbfounded that I immediately looked up its stats and movepool and learned that the fucking thing is a glass cannon just waiting to explode...
been a month since i stumbled across your vids, thanks i used to game boy link battle back in the 90s at school in OG. i had no idea pokemon had come so far, got me to start up agian. cheers
I wanted to calc if Shofu was right about Knock Off not killing that Nidoking, at the HP it was at, it wouldn't have survived that Knock Off barely. :p 0- Atk Clefable Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Nidoking: 58-69 (19 - 22.6%) -- possible 5HKO
Tanka Kudo No I mean at around 5.25ish, Shofu was saying that having the choice specs knocked off would be benefitial, but at the current Hp he wouldn't survive :p
Wow! Duncan had nowhere to run! Totally got dominated! xD P.S: I read that DangerZone nickname in Natewantstobattle style! (i.e. Daaaainja Zoooooooooone !!!) XD
Duncan is no slouch though he plays quite a bit. Maybe battling shofu and knowing it would be here for everyone to see, he might have choked a bit when he didn't Defog the rocks, random knock off etc. I've watched shofu since back when he had
I know people have said this before and I know Fly is STAB and Tough Claws boosted, but the two turn thing is just no... You are definitely better off running Aerial Ace if you want Flying-type STAB.
The thing about Fly is that it isn't Dig or Shadow Force or Solarbeam. Flying is a much more consistant offensive type. Switching in on it isn't that easy. Especially if that fast-as-hell Mega Aerodactyl can follow it up with an Earthquake real quick. Everything that resists Flying is weak to Ground except Rotom and Zapdos and Skarmory. That's why Brave Bird Everything is the one true strategy.
Shofu, you should run sheee force life orb, ev train your nidoking in speed and spec attack and sit back and watch the carnage. Nidoking is crazy with a life orb.
I'm not hating I'm just curious: why do people roll special attacking nidoking when its attack stat is much higher and would have a higher damage output?
People run special attacking nidoking because of its great special attacking move pool. With sheer force, it gets a 1.3x attack boost with moves such as ice beam and thunderbolt. With life orb you get another 1.3x boost. Since nidoking has sheer force, it ignores life orb damage and it gives it another 1.3x boost. In total, that's a 1.3x 1.3 x 1.3 + stab boost. If you use something like sludge wave, the total base power is about 300 base power. The bad part is that nidoking has pretty bad special attack, if you you give it a speed boosting nature.
11:11 That freakin' punchline XD. 'r u a shinyhunter?! Whatever, your shinies are gorgeous.. I think I'll hunt'em all :-P ... You don' give a s**t, don't you?
Lol, you were too hype for this video. Luckily that Clefable had several para haxes happen to it or else this video would've been 10 minutes longer from all of its wishes :-P
because of the special move pool it has + sheer force makes it slightly better on the special side physical nidoking is very viable tho, ive used a scarfed one and it catches people off guard which is good
Yeah but it still gets a lot of really good Physical moves like Outrage, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Poison Jab, Aqua tail, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, Megahorn, Shadow Claw, Superpower, Sucker Punch and Head Smash.
Am I the only one that doesn't switch pokemon every couple of turns just through typing. Especially when there is something like stealth rocks on the field and I forget to bring my rapid spinner....????
"I should've gone for the roost" "I went for the roost here but I should've gone for he thunderbolt like I said" LOL
Man that Kingdra put in a lot of work.
lol right
Lmao I love when you say "HmmBich"
***** Im pretty sure he doesnt, you can clearly hear the "B"
Probably the main reason I subbed to Shofu. That and his old "bodybag" videos haha
James Mayhan I loved whe he says THE GOONS!
I can't believe I listened to styles about how azelf was physical and used explosion..... I would never have risked my magnezone otherwise lmao
Lead Azelf is somewhat unpredictable. Some do explode after they set up rocks.
It's a lot like mew, a jack of all trades
I've run Explosion Azelf in UU it was great.
If you need to hear someone's advice on a play in a battle, you deserve to lose the Magnezone anyway, lol.
Paul Jesus I wasn't asking for advice on a play, this is my FIRST COMPETITIVE GENERATION, I had never fought an azelf before so I just said when I saw the team previews "so, what does this thing run"
Shofu is back and uploading? This must be an april fools joke but being seriously your wifi battles have been missed.
I bet Duncan was whining the whole match screaming "Hacks!"
*Hax
he was doing exactly that, it was a battle he did live. he keep saying he'll quit pokemon if luck wouldnt come his way etc etc bla bla.
Everyone does, its called "salt"
AzimuthMagician It's his typical whiny live commentary. It's so annoying.
Watch your ass, I once named him salty in his stream and he went all Primeape on me
I cannot deny it, that raspberry at the end made me laugh
dear shofu-
had an idea for a new duel system for you to challenge yourself with
pick 6 ppl whether subscribers or from comment sections each one gets, trains, and gives moves to a pokemon and gives it to you
then without looking at stats abilties or moves you go into battle
if 6 ppl did it it'd be epic
personally i would hand over my clutch vaporeon
move set: acid armor, toxic, wish, protect
left overs for item
thing tanks through and stalls for dayz
Very cool idea.I like it.
Duncan must have been kneedeep in salt lol
I particularly love shofu when he says "DISSTROYYYY HIIIM! " :D
Or "MmmmmmmmmmmBitch!"
my lord how many shines does Shofu have
He poke gens them
TrueDaxian
he also has desperate fanboys
As many as he wants to pokegen?
pokegen?
Jason Tucker it's a program that lets you create Pokémon from Gen 4 and 5
Kingdra's like, "That's okay guys, I didn't want to battle anyway.."
SHOFU WHY DO YOU KEEP PLUGGING YOUR THINGS
WE AL
READY
*KNOOOOW*
No April Fools bullshit with a hyped Pimpnite battle this time? What even.
What are all these teams without Pikachu? What kinda filthy casual are you, shofu?
Lucifer is a badass name for aerodactyl
Hahaha, Fear Turkey, I get that refference :D
amazing job shofu and DuncankneeDEEP awesome battle
I had no idea what Azelf was capable of until I battled one in a double battle and it used a Normal Gem-boosted Explosion at the start of the battle. I was so dumbfounded that I immediately looked up its stats and movepool and learned that the fucking thing is a glass cannon just waiting to explode...
almost at 400K congrats shofu!
shofu DO THE GOOGLE MAPS CHALLENGE
you are in California you can find bulbasaur and Dragonite
Or little buds and big red lighters lol
Whoa, shofu's alive! o:
been a month since i stumbled across your vids, thanks i used to game boy link battle back in the 90s at school in OG. i had no idea pokemon had come so far, got me to start up agian. cheers
Hmmm yung humma, hey, hmmm, heyy, hmmmm(8) JAJAJA i have watched that part of the video so many times!
Nice battle Shofu!
The shiny Nido did a lot of work this match, really gotta get myself one! :]
I wonder how much less people watch shofus battles now than a couple months ago when X and Y were new
YES Nidoking puttin in the finest work
I want to see a match between Shofu and PIMPNITE.
That Aerodactyl is badass and shiny Nido is just beautiful!
I would love to see a Shofu vs. RiptidePow pokemon battul! :)
LF: Manectricite (Manectric megastone).
FT: Magmar with Magmarizer, Charizardite Y.
lol that sludge wave from the Nidoking hit awkwardly low if you ask me
***** I don't know if you watch the anime or not, but Diggersby made its debut today.
I wanted to calc if Shofu was right about Knock Off not killing that Nidoking, at the HP it was at, it wouldn't have survived that Knock Off barely. :p
0- Atk Clefable Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Nidoking: 58-69 (19 - 22.6%) -- possible 5HKO
it was bisharp not nidoking
Tanka Kudo No I mean at around 5.25ish, Shofu was saying that having the choice specs knocked off would be benefitial, but at the current Hp he wouldn't survive :p
2 hit ko i think
"fear turkey" Hellsing ultimate abridge reference
for two weeks now i've been saying "mmm bitch!!!" like every five minutes XD
Wow! Duncan had nowhere to run! Totally got dominated! xD
P.S: I read that DangerZone nickname in Natewantstobattle style!
(i.e. Daaaainja Zoooooooooone !!!) XD
You are 1 of my favorite youtubers I always watch your pokemom videos I enjoy them alot shofu
Best April Fool yet. Shofu using non-ou pokes
King Henry in Nidoking xD
Like Shady's Nidoqueen who's named "longlive"
He could have been expecting your nidoking to be a life orb sheer force set, so that could have been why he went for the knock off.
Ohhhhhhh I get it, the joke is Duncan having a single battle. Lol that's funny Shofu!
Oh and nice battle shofu I love your battle style and laugh haha
ok, shofu is my fkn idol but just to have him sing smeng it girl ( i knew what it was before this). it seriously made my fkn week.
like the new team shofu, big fan of azelf and airodactyl. great to see you having matches with other skilled youtubers,
He probably didn't go for defog because he was scared of the bisharp getting the defiant boost.
OMFG the FEAR TURKEY :3 that made my day.
It's funny because shofu thinks Duncan goes in feet first.
That Yung Humma intro theme though lmao!
"That's Right! I am going to fuck the Fear Turkey!" XD
Just lost it as soon as I saw the start of the battle.
bring back the MAGIC shofu we miss that jumpluff ::)
I'm laughing my head off here watching the poor guy's Clefable get parahaxed to death XDD Magnezone gettin one-shot tho LOL He never knew what hit em!
Nice Hellsing Ultimate Abridged reference Duncan
Highway to the DANGERZONE!
Saw this on Duncan's stream ;)
Duncan is no slouch though he plays quite a bit. Maybe battling shofu and knowing it would be here for everyone to see, he might have choked a bit when he didn't Defog the rocks, random knock off etc. I've watched shofu since back when he had
The CRIT on your Bisharp was fine because he got SO many para has
is shofu's team all legit shinys?
Probably not. You may already know that he has a Pikachu with Extremespeed (event move that cannot be passed down) and Volt Tackle (Egg move only)
All those parahax and...FLY! XD I'm sooo done. :))))
Does anybody else know what Fear Turkey is from?
There's a gaming channel on RUclips called Fear Turkey with ~300 subscribers, not sure if that's what it is
Hellsing abrdiged episode 3 I think mentions the fear turkey
Cakes got the reference. I'm going to fuck the Fear Turkey.
Yay, someone understands. Hellsing FTW.
I know people have said this before and I know Fly is STAB and Tough Claws boosted, but the two turn thing is just no... You are definitely better off running Aerial Ace if you want Flying-type STAB.
The thing about Fly is that it isn't Dig or Shadow Force or Solarbeam. Flying is a much more consistant offensive type. Switching in on it isn't that easy. Especially if that fast-as-hell Mega Aerodactyl can follow it up with an Earthquake real quick. Everything that resists Flying is weak to Ground except Rotom and Zapdos and Skarmory. That's why Brave Bird Everything is the one true strategy.
Now imagine if Aerodactyl had Brave Bird and Head Smash. Its non-Mega (Rock Head) would be insane as well ._.
Because with sheer force it has a better special pool
Shiny Bisharp is so nice, I love that color
Great Battle! Post more battle! Thanks
Gee, I wish I could breed perfect IV pokes as fast as shofu does.
Love the name of your zapdos 😎
Another awesome battle bro!
that intro is beastly
Ma man shofu puttin in work!
when he said YEAH BELIEVE IT hahaha
That fly was a JOKEEEEEEEEE LOL!
interesting to see you using different pokes, i kinda miss the Lando :[ gg tho
Shofu, you should run sheee force life orb, ev train your nidoking in speed and spec attack and sit back and watch the carnage. Nidoking is crazy with a life orb.

How you like your eggs fried or fertilezed
I didn't know Nidoking had that high of special attack to do so much damage with Sludge Wave.
ok thanks for the info
Smash and bang is my favorite combination.
My god clefable so huge
At first I was like :O, but then I was like :D! HENRY! As in, henry, the dark mage!? XD!!!!!!!!
LF:5iv Shiny goodra (gooey), shiny trevenant (harvest), shiny florges(white or blue) FT:Shiny 5iv Aegislash, Shiny 5iv protean greninja
yeah i do what do u have (only looking for gen 6 shinies)?
Doritos. Nice Name
If I had a Zapdos, I would name it Tweek
Are all of your pokemon flawless pokemon?
I'm a dulphin whu leks sem punet beerter. :)
Every team should have a Ditto, but Ditto should always be choice scarfed!
Love the intro
I love your intro man
I like how his pokemon is named Red ranger and it's blue xD
on November 21 2014 pokemon omega ruby and alpha sapphire will come out
Shofu, what do you run on your aerodactyl? Ive tried to use that thing but bad junk always happens to it.
11:11 That freakin' punchline XD.
'r u a shinyhunter?! Whatever, your shinies are gorgeous.. I think I'll hunt'em all :-P
...
You don' give a s**t, don't you?
Lol, you were too hype for this video. Luckily that Clefable had several para haxes happen to it or else this video would've been 10 minutes longer from all of its wishes :-P
Why is Nidoking used as a special attacker when it's physical attack is a lot higher? I don't really get it.
because of the special move pool it has + sheer force makes it slightly better on the special side
physical nidoking is very viable tho, ive used a scarfed one and it catches people off guard which is good
It has a better dpecial move pool
Yeah but it still gets a lot of really good Physical moves like Outrage, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Poison Jab, Aqua tail, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, Megahorn, Shadow Claw, Superpower, Sucker Punch and Head Smash.
***** half of those moves suck, and its special attacks are much more powerful
But a lot of them are commonly used moves though.
Dat Monster Hunter 4 reference!! OMG
Good battle! I wish i could battle you
Fuck yeah pokemon battle!!!
Am I the only one that doesn't switch pokemon every couple of turns just through typing. Especially when there is something like stealth rocks on the field and I forget to bring my rapid spinner....????
that battle was pretty bad Shofu tbh
shofu you shoud wifi battle shady penguinn
mega aerodactyl looks like serj tankian
