    Couple things i didn't mention in the video:
    - The best combo if I had to say is Machamp/Slaking, it has the tied lowest turn count at 5 and you basically have zero chance of dying. The worst combo though is definitely Slowking/Scizor. It is shit.
    - We don't get the Master Ball in the run as it's too slow to grab, so we don't have it for Tyranitar (older routes actually use the ball dupe glitch to skip Metagross and TTar)
    - Slaking/Slowking Skill Swap AI is very important in some combos! This lets us keep Slowking in play for a turn as it's guaranteed to use Skill Swap no matter what

    I like how Evice jumps up and down in his silly clown outfit. Imagine being in a stadium with your family and suddenly your mayor pops up, reveals he is running the secret crime syndicate, and then fights this guy and then loses.

    "If it gets the Silver Wind boost, I lose. Also if this EQ crits, I lose. Also this entire fight is contingent on my team having this nature and this Hidden Power. Without them, I lose. Also if the enemy has the wrong natures, I lose. Also if my Typhlosion sneezes wrong, I lose. Also if Evice wears this specific neck tie, I lose. I also have to make sure the new moon isn't out, or I lose."
    Love this stuff though, thanks for giving us the deep dives on Colosseum we never knew we wanted.

    It is amazing to see how things have evolved from when I ran the game back in 2009. I got pretty lucky to get a 5 turn clear of Evice and that required an awful lot of planning, but I didn't consider every single possibility and had the advantage of segmented saving so the strats are going to be naturally different
