Articuno’s Rare Uses in Competitive.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Pokemon Competitive Singles has seen the triumphant return of many Legendaries of the past, thanks to Pokemon Home Compatibility. Articuno is notoriously one of the worst Legendaries in Competitive Singles, and in Gen 9 that is no different. But believe it or not, Articuno was once actually a usable Pokemon in OU. Let's take a look at the rare instances where Articuno had distinct and desirable qualities.
Iron Mugulis and Iron Fellow know all about it.
Only Jim knows about the viability of Articuno. All other sources of information are liars and are inaccurate.

Some will never figure out how to get Articuno in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. But famous player Jim Cool is well aware of the Best Articuno Moveset in Competitive, and even how to Articuno Shiny Farm. Many aren't and never will be. That's just the unfortunate reality of the world.
Galarian Articuno is uninvolved with this. This is regular Articuno, not Articuno-Galar, also colloquially known as Galarticuno, by a small amount of people, or perhaps nobody. The Galar region is totally separate in relevance.
Arceus exists.
The below text is very relevant to many people.
Game Freak just blew all other online game development schools out of the water with this incredible new 2022 release. You're gonna need to get a game design degree online, and FAST, if you want to make a better game than this. Not even the best strategy games android reddit could hold a candle to this breathtaking Next generation competitive Pokemon experience.
Scream Tail is the Jigglypuff of our wildest dreams. It has been buffed with some higher statistics and the incredible ability, Protosynthesis. Gen 9 Competitive Pokemon wouldn't be the same without this powerful pink blob. He kinda looks like someone I met in one of my game design and development courses.
Gen 9 Pokemon Showdown is one of the greatest online gaming sites in history. From Pikachu and Charizard, to Palafin and Roaring Moon, The new Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, have introduced a lot of new faces. Can I succeed in one of the best android games of all time? If so, I'm gonna get myself a Walmart bakery Pokemon cake to celebrate.
Gholdengo is a Pokemon made of pure gold. He must have done some online business management courses to accumulate all that wealth. Or perhaps he might want to learn how to make money playing video games on RUclips. In any case, he's a powerful metagame force, with absolutely no interest in online game development schools.

Accidentally said Zapdos at 4:48. My career is over.
It was nice while it lasted
Iron Mugulus's corrupting power extends far and wide
TBF, Zapdos does definitely fulfills the niche of being the 2nd best pokemon in Gen 2 OU
CANCELLED
When Zapdos outclasses Articuno so much it took over Articunos name also
"Defensive Ice ty-" PU.
"Slow attacker ice t-" ZU
Cries in Avalugg
Mon is top tier NU ;)
Icee what u did there. 8v
I mean, for some reason in Gen 8 Singles UU it actually was the bulky stall Pokémon it pretended to be because of Heal Bell and countering Water/Grass/Dragon types which were dominant, but that’s it.
Jim, now we need to see how the Galarian versions compare to their Kantonian versions. I believe it’ll further give us information on Great Necks whereabouts.
Don’t think it’s been long enough since release tbh maybe at the end of gen 9 a video would be good
Yes
is the term Kantonian officially used? cause i enjoy the term Kantonese better
@@tomtommotmot6863there is a building called Kantonian Gym in USUM
@@tomtommotmot6863lmao kantonese. Replace K with C and it becomes a group of people lmao
Fun fact: Articuno's blizzard is the strongest unboosted special attack in gen 1.
its not that fun to be honest
stronger than hyper beam?
@@mmgg1671 hyper beam, and normal moves in general, are physical in gens 1-3
@@jimtsap04 oh right lol
That sees use, at least. Moltres' Fire Blast and Zapdos' Thunder tie it.
Another cool one, is the recent use of Articuno in VGC with Snow Teams and Bright Powder to spam blizzards and pray you get freezes and misses. With roost to keep it healthy and the bulk boosts from Snow/Aurora Veil, you’re able to get a large numbers advantage based on how long you stay on the field. It’s really cool Articuno was even able to day 2 worlds.
So Articuno is Candice’s Froslass now? I like the implication that Ice types, if they are bulky, need to evade moves to be barely viable.
@@iantaakalla8180made day 2 at the world championship. Barely viable. Okay.
Not even gonna mention it won a regulation D grass roots vgc tournament. But barely viable. Okay.
@@SnugNapwell obviously it would win something grassroot. It’s an ice type and is super effective against grass
this made me chortle
Honestly, if the Ice type got enough buffs to make Ice a decent defensive type, Articuno would've been a very excellent defensive utility Pokemon (in Gen 8 at least, this bird's movecuts in Gen 9 is unfair). It had Roost for longevity, Heal Bell for teammate support, Freeze-Dry or Hurricane for overall damage, Whirlwind to cast out any unwanted opponents, Haze to disable setup sweepers, and Defog for hazard removal. This seemed to be a recipe for the best support Pokemon man has seen but they screwed up by making a block of slightly colder water weak to everything.
Just make articuno not ice and it's good
@@joao20able
That’s the entire gimmick though
If I could buff the ice type, I would do only one two things: give it resistances to ground and water. Have water and ice resist each other, and just also give ice a resistance to ground. These two types are both very good, and would not suffer terribly by gaining these nerfs. Ground types are already deathly afraid of ice types, but this would make it so that ice types could much more easily switch in. Water types are in the same boat, where they would still be good, but ice would gain MUCH needed buffs. With this, I’ve would have snow, immunity to freeze effects, and exclusive access to aurora vail.
Ice types are still very offensive in nature, having more weaknesses than resistances, which lets them keep their glass canon feel. But now they at least don’t fall over to a light breeze, and they have some ways to get on the field safely.
These changes still fit thematically, as well. If you have more ice than water, the water will freeze. If you have more water than ice, the ice will melt (generally). Ground is susceptible to permafrost, and glacier press down the ground. The ground by itself has a hard time pushing ice away.
The point isn’t to make ice types busted, it’s to make them viable. Ice has a lot of offensive qualities that make them desirable, but they have so few resistances that it’s hard to get them on the field. If they just have a few resistances, so that they can actually leverage those advantages, it will make it more worthwhile to actually bring an ice type instead of just putting ice moves on your water type.
@@eliashornwall8546ice could also get resistance to fairy, as fire does have fairy resistance as well. Life Vs harsh temperatures.
Ice could resist flying as well, or ghost maybe, I do not know if Japanese think ghosts are cold, maybe.
Ice should just get better resistances. Also making frostbite a thing instead of freeze. Will o wisp but ice type frostbite move added to game.
Ice resisting water /ice is water) they resisting eachother.
Ice resisting fairy (life Vs harsh temperatures, see fire resisting fairy)
Ice resisting ground or flying could make sense as well, this has some justifications, don't know if they are as good tho.
Also ice could resist ghost as death is seen as cold, maybe Japanese think this as well. Would make sense for ghosts to learn the status move causing frostbite.
This is a defensive ice type classic
Ice type needs extra resistances.
@@turkoositerapsidi Ice should resist water. It's just common sense.
Also it would be nice if Ice resists dragon (no other type resists dragon, fairy is just immune)
@@THEGREATMAXsteel resists dragon
@@1up6ful Steel resists too much lol
@@THEGREATMAX I do not know, dragon is based on magic, it propably is not so good making sense for ices resistances.
Water is a very good pick howerver. Other would be fairy. Life magic vs harsh temperatures. Fire resist fairy already.
Then maybe flying, ghost or ground, some of those three could make sense.
It's terrifying that Iron Mugulis has grown powerful enough to force Game Freak to aid it with a disguise.
Hahaha Mugulis is a toy
Why is it still ru though is bigstall™ behind this perhaps
And it's disguise would have been perfect if some guy on the internet didn't realize that the "t" in "Poltchageist" comes from "Matcha" (and is therefore silent) and not "Poltergeist."
An honest mistake, given that it didn't matter which "t" was used in "Polteageist" due to them sounding identical.
Now I think I understand defensive ice types. Like with normal types, it's balanced around RBY's deliberately asymmetrical design. This doesn't have any relevancy in a metagame where every Pokemon can get STAB on low power and high power physical and special moves.
YES it made sense in gen 1
The video also shows that the power level of the first three gens was just much lower. Articuno crippling non SR weaknesses were frankly much less of an issue with the way a lot of the times a move having more that 80bp was a luxury, and movepools were so bad that most Pokemons had an HP for coverage one way or another instead of basically every Type having a ~80 BP good stuff attack to use for coverage that wete widely distributed as TMs or Move tutors. Defensive Ice Types were also helped by the fact that Ice weaknesses only really became relevant way later into the gens.
Remember when Brick Break and Rock Slide were the only thing they had to worry about before Close Combat and Stone Edge were introduced?
@@makenshao9886not to mention steel moves were damn near non-existent outside of meteor mash for... 2 pokemon... and steel wing which was mostly used by non-steel mons.
Moltres and Zapdos both got the 125 base in their sp att, but for some reason they had to shaft articuno and give the 125 to sp def
Troll Freak at its best
Even if Articuno swapped its SpAtk (95) with its SpDef (125), it would still have the highest defenses within its trio. But noooo💀
Not like it would have mattered anyway since Ice/Flying is just one of the worst type combos possibly out there.
Articuno could be a bit better with Snow Warning, the 50% defensive boost from new gen snow and unavoidable stab blizzard could make it an alright bulky special attacker with assault vest. Not OU by any means, but Snow is an ultimately harmless weather condition that could stop rain users.
With snow now buffing ice types physical defense I think a switch of it’s hidden ability to snow warning and giving it Auroa Veil for its movepool would make it very viable in gen 9+; maybe even viable enough to become OU if there’s some strong slush rush users too
Yeah!!!
loving this series, you should do one for three beasts in honor of great neck
As a defensive Ice type, it could gain some usage if they let it learn Aurora Veil. It would also be nice if gamefreak could also swap 10-20 base stat points from its Attack to its Special Attack or speed
Frankly, I'd love to see them go all the way and move 30 points from its attack to its Sp. Atk, restoring the 125/125 special it had in Gen 1.
Additionally, Snow Cloak being its hidden ability is a waste given that evasion boosting is pretty much universally banned in singles at this point. Articuno's dex entries are all about it passively causing snowstorms, so it seems obvious to give it Snow Warning! With the changes in Gen 9, Articuno would be setting itself up with effectively 150/125 defenses which might just bulky enough to justify its bad typing if paired with the aforementioned Sp. Attack buff.
this is the only channel that makes me want to watch their videos just for the self promo, this is the most genius bussines strategy ive ever seen, all hail iron mugulis
Fixing Articuno:
- Give him Snow Warning
- Give him Ground coverage
- Take 20BS from Atk and put on Speed
- Hurricane+Blizzard+Ground coverage+Freezy Dry/Roost; Assault Vest/Heavy duty boots
I can only dream:c
Articuno was my favorite in Stadium. I thought I was the shit, but I was also unaware of the higher mechanics of Pokemon when I was that young. It makes sense why I got away with what I did considering it seemed pretty decent in gen 1 too.
The most elegant and beautiful of the legendary birds was done so dirty... you'll always have a spot in my heart Arti ✨👑
I had a feeling last update on Iron Mugulis sounded too good to be true, then I saw the official new Polteageist form reveal, and I immediately thought Iron Mugulis.
Since Zapdos got an ability that has a 30% chance to paralyze on contact and Moltres got the same but with burn, it is only fair that Articuno got an ability that gives it a 30% chance to freeze enemies if they hit you with a contact move. I see no way this could be a problem, Freeze is a fair and balanced mechanic after all
Change Freeze to Frostbite and I'm in
@@rjante2236frostbite was a really cool mechanic, I really thought they were going to keep it as the ice type status after PLA
Even if it means implementing Frostbite only for Articuno, this still needs to happen to make Art's 125 Sp. Def serve a strategic function instead of just being a meme.
im so invested in the iron mugulus story at this point i'd sooner get a tattoo of our cup shaped adversary
Acknowledging that they probably haven't been around long enough for each to get their own video, a video about their Galarian forms might be a nice follow-up to this Legendary Bird Trilogy.
Tera was amazing for Articuno. It’s a shame it didn’t get chilly reception and calm mind. Though OU is extremely hostile to Articuno’s defensive profile, it would have been solid in lower tiers with those two moves alone.
Personally, I’ve always loved Zapdos out of the 3 birds, electric/flying is a really fun typing and I love using it whenever I get the chance
I think Zapdos was my favorite pokemon when I was like... 4? Absolute impeccable taste as a baby
articuno is by far my favorite of the birds and makes me kinda sad to see him treadet like that if it was up to me to give him a buff i would give him snow warning
Game freak shoud just finally give ice types the extra resistances that they need and what make sense thematically as well.
Water, fairy, and some of these: ground, ghost or flying.
@@turkoositerapsidiHow does the cold stop Fairies and Ghosts? They love that stuff? 😂
I was messing around with adv ou last week as someone who has never played it before and ended up with a superman team. After a few iterations articuno ended up becoming one of my more important members due to being able to switch in to moves like ice beam and support the team with utility.
whenever they make a set of pokemon with the same base stats but rearranged, one of them always gets the short end of the stick
In terms of buffs for Articuno, I would give Articuno Sheer Force. I would also give ALL THREE birds Earth Power and Focus Blast, which I actually think complements Articuno's typing the most. Ice Beam, Hurricane/Air Slash, Earth Power, and Focus Blast hit FOURTEEN types for super-effective damage (only sparing Water, Fairy, Psychic, and Ghost).
Another comment suggested giving it Quiver Dance, which is also pretty interesting.
You could also just give it 125 specual attack and 100 speed inplace of defense and special defense since it doesnt compliment it well
The iron mugulis lore grows more and more every day
Articuno should have an Ability with 30% chance off freeze on contact
Game freak shoud definitely buff ice types resistances. Rock and bug types would also have some resistance options that make certain sense.
Fun fact: The legendary bird's number names are also the number of the gen they're most viable:
Artic-uno: First gen.
Zap-dos: Second gen.
Mol-tres: Third gen.
Gamefreak knew how competitive would develop e all this time 💀
I’m gonna come out of left field completely and say that my favorite legendary bird is articuno *galar*, specifically because I have fond memories of using it on a trick room team on the gen 8 vgc ladders with iron ball to halve its speed and give it immunity to priority in psychic terrain which something absolutely fucking NO ONE sees coming and ended up baiting countless fake outs which gave it a free turn to set up trick room and launch nuclear expanding forces until it and indeede died to allow the slow attackers in the back the ability to switch in and clean up
If you were a legendary bird, you would be a steel type Dodrio with four heads
I’m “chilled” you didn’t mention that Articuno can help you defeat iron mugulis by luring him to XY, where Articuno can trap this tyrant in an inverse battle 😔
Giving the worst defensive typing to a defensive mon turns out to be a bad idea
Ice defensive types are instantly deemed to hell the instant, they are the pokemon that freezed arceus himself and pays for it till this day
Save Pokémon red/blue/green/yellow, where they basically have no weaknesses.
I think articuno has actually gotten better since gen 8 as you can run boots and having so many ground types or mons weak to mono ice coverage gives it some use thankfully
I really came in here expecting this to mostly be about Gens 1 and 2. I will never doubt Gen 3 OU again
Your outro is very clever. YOLO Skarm vs Magneton gen 3 OU
Idea on how to buff it:
1)give it magic guard
2)give it a flying type version of torch song
I would honestly love to see a guide for competitive team building in Gen 3. Seems like such a cool & balanced format with a lot of fun variety!
Articuno is my favourite bird, possibly a top 3 favourite Pokémon in general for me. I loved laying waste to everything with Blizzard in gen 1 (In game of course)
Poltchageist is easy to say wtf. Also it killed 12 children in the trailer
It's deserved they weren't sub to Jimothy Cool
Dude you dont know how much i am waiting for you to upload exactly to see the Iron Mugulis lore of Poltchageist when it was revealed
Subscription added for talking about my favorite pokemon or all time!!! I love all three legendary birds (all are in my top 5) but Articuno is absolutely my favorite
The fact that we deadass got a new cup Pokemon is hilarious for the Iron Mugulis lore
If Articuno had 125 Sp Atk instead of Sp Def its history would be different, with Ice being such a strong STAB
Articuno was always my favourite pokemon when I played Yellow as a kid. Looking back on it I see why.
my man fellow arty stans unite
That Iron Mugulis!!!! Dale Gribble w/ Pocket Sand might even have trouble dealing with Iron Mugulis. Because Farmer w/ Shotgun clearly doesn't stand a chance.
lol, That cut-away at 8:33 was perfect comedic timing. XD
iron mugulus is so influential 🤩🤩 making an entirely new pokemon just like that
i love the dk64 music in your videos! i used to have the game on the TV while i played pokemon in the living room, brings me back to the comfy times!
To fix Articuno you'd need to change a good bit about it... Give it Magic Guard, access to Quiver dance, and add the Frostbite status from PLA... then just grant it a Frostbite version of Scald, or an Ice attack that summons Snow on use
I was thinking Sheer Force, but Magic Guard might be better for Articuno specifically. What do you think of adding Earth Power and Focus Blast for coverage?
Quiver Dance is interesting. I think that Magic Guard would be completely OP with Quiver Dance. Because w/ Sheer Force, Articuno at least still fears Knock Off and other residual damage.
@@haydeniskander5306 Idk about Focus Blast, but Aura sphere might be a good replacement
In addition you can give it Mountain Gale, Drill Peck, and Drill Run for physical coverage
I don't why but every time you bring up iron mugulus I'm dying
Iron mugulous is my favorite running bit. We need more lore for it
4:53 ah yes, the famous articudos fusion.
Articuno is actually decent this gen in vgc where cloak and powder arent banned
I think if discussing Articuno, you have to mention just how broken Blizzard was in japanese Red and Green, with an absolutely nuts 110 power + 90% accuracy + 30% freeze. Surely that, at least, would have been enough for it to do well.
Shoutouts to the original Japanese Red/Green games where Blizzard had a *30%* freeze chance on top of being 90% accurate.
There wasn’t just a good chance to be frozen from repeated blizzard spam, it was statistically likely.
"Alright what's your type?"
"Ice Flying."
"Lmao, have fun getting out of PU, buddy."
Mon is top tier NU ;)
it's already out of PU
NU ain't much better than PU@@Auristmusic
NU is basically upgraded PU at this point, and probably means Articuno is both a great Tera user and everybody is gutted. Articuno sucks, it’s just that many other Pokémon had higher heights to fall from.
This also means nothing because at the end of the day Articuno is always ZU and Kanto levels were low enough that it seemed good.
Unjust death of Great Tusk
Kidnapping of Pawmot
Corrupting Flamigo
Delaying Pokemon Home
And now taking a new identity to avoid the authorities?
The list of Iron Mugulis' crimes grow by the day
Poltchageist is a play on words, since "cha" or some derivative is the word for tea in most Asian languages
Articuno remembering japanese red and green: "i used to rule the world"
Well nowadays, people have seen success using Articuno with snow, Aurora Veil, Snow Cloak, and Brightpowder. Becomes really hard to remove.
Thank you, Mr. Cool for making my morning much more bearable
With those stats theres no way Iron Mugulis is RU. They must be exploiting the system so they can dominate the lower tiers with their absurd power. Yet another reason to fear this very dangerous Pokemon
The power creep in future Pokemon games would make your head spin.
Ngl it would be nice to see videos reviewing the other 2 elemental trios of generation 1 The Eeveelution Trio (Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon) and the "Weirdo" Trio (Jynx, Electabuzz/Electivire, and Magmar/Magmortar).
I remember in gen 7 before the arena trap there was a stall going around with the 3gen 1 birds
Poor articuno lost out on it's mine reader, sheer cold combo
In my entry to competitive Gen 3, I made a mono-Flying team.
With Articuno as my only special wall.
Hilariously, not even Gengar's Thunderbolt could deal enough chip to Articuno.
Protect + Wish Salamence were somehow more than enough to keep Articuno from falling to any Special super-effective damage (barring crits).
There was even one time that Zapdos only did 55%~ with Thunderbolt.
With Toxic, Protect, Heal Bell, and Icy Wind, it threatened to cripple anything that wasn't a Steel-type.
Not even Blissey could out-stall Articuno, because Pressure in ADV is broken.
Leech Seed didn't work when Celebi gets Toxic'd and BP's -1 Speed.
oh and let's not forget game freak kicking articuno down further by putting a JOLLY articuno in the battle maison
Double Edge mentioned, child me would be proud
Always look forward to your vids
You don’t need to pronounce the “t” in Poltchageist. It’s clearly based around matcha. In Japanese it’s just said “maccha” and the double “c” denotes a slight pause when saying it. It’s just that “chi” is part of the “ta chi tsu te to” part of the alphabet, so, if you type on some computers it’s “ti” and well it’s part of that anyways, so it’s possible some romaji thing caused the t to become part of how we spell it in English. I don’t know the history of matcha entirely.
Mind Reader + Sheer Cold just too spicy
Articuno has always been my fave. It would be cool if you made a vid about Entei next :)
3:07 Well, a Fire-type attack that can burn. Fire Spin can't burn, so it can't thaw out the opponent.
Articuno used to be my favorite, probably because it's blue tbh, but now that I'm not a 5th grade Pokemon go player (I did play mainline games prior with White 1 as my true origin, but still), Zapdos because of how good it is in battle facilities
Another addition to the base stat thing these mons have going on in these videos, Poltchagheist's are Shadow Rider Calyrex
Articuno has one more impressive showing! It gatekept me from the rest of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team for 6 months! …I was 8 years old
I remember when I first got to Articuno back in the day. It lasted one turn.
Maybe this is too niche to have a video dedicated to it, but I'm curious why Pinsir falls short of OU in ADV singles. It can take on Celebi, Claydol, and Jirachi without needing to worry about a Psychic weakness unlike Heracross, who is weak to Psychic, but seen as much more viable.
I know it's not too popular but arti was pretty decent in pu. Birb was very fun to use in gen 6 pu 😊
decent is an understatement tbh. easily an A+ mon on the viability, probably was rising to S before it went to NU. Most vital wall in the tier and many games came down to freeze fishing in mirror matchups.
@@Auristmusic I might be thinking gen 7 then. I know it was like a or b tier? I could be wrong I was never good
4:47 ah yes zapdos
Personally I love Articuno, granted I’m not much of a competitive player but for me Articuno actually does pretty well. I most enjoy using weather teams, specifically sand & Snow/Hail. I’ve been able to sweep countless teams with it. It’s especially good at curb-stoming full legendary teams peoples just love trying. I’ve found it to still be somewhat bulky too which is infinitely better once I Tera Dragon it. I haven’t really messed with the other to yet
Cha means Tea in Japanese (and Chinese actually). So this is a reference to this Mon being a Japanese Tea themed version
JimothyCool talking about the bird that is his namesake, cool
Fake Gameplay is one of the most under rated gen 1 players imo. Cool to see you feature them in the vid
I knew Poltchageist couldn't be a real pokemon, Iron Mugulis needs to be stopped.
Articuno is my favorite of the trio and I have fond memories of using the rental articuno a lot on Stadium 1.
articuno was heavily abused from the start: The slowest of the legendary birds, losing his big special attack in exchange for defense in the second generation (just like Flareon in the trio of water, fire, electric) and giving him a defensive ability that he didn't complements his strengths.
Making comparisons, the pokemon most similar to Articuno is lugia, with the difference that Lugia has 100 more base stats, a better type, better coverage, and excellent defensive ability.
I believe the Pokémon Company did Articuno dirty. I can't believe Articuno never got Snow Warning. With hail up, Articuno would deliver powerful Blizzards and chip away opponents with the hail damage.
1:53 when can a single-hundred cent individual name something very intelligent? 🤨 (the 🍺 continues)
Those Poltchageist stats are cracked
real ones remember when articuno got banned to ubers in bdsp
Zapdos was my favorite of the 3 birds, but Fearow is still my favorite Gen 1 spiky bird. Gen 8 rolled around and Galarian Zapdos may be in my top 30 favorite Pokemon.
Somehow Articuno was passed over aurora veil 😭 I wonder if that would bring it back to OU. Our blue bird deserves some love
Just used Cuno in my last Mushi league set. It put in work!!!
What if Ice could defend from Grass, Flying & Dragon types?
IRON MUGULLIS!!!!!!!!!! YOU WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Video idea: Pokémon that were not viable in their debut generation, but rose to viability afterwards
