Pls forgive my "um"s
I havent done unscripted content in a minute and my old speaking crutch is back lol. Working on it.
I don’t really hear it throughout the video; In fact, I think it’s fine because it sounds more like a person talking if that makes sense.
@@BoShmooveragreed. these videos work well enough as just listening to you talk unscripted that it feels more natural
It's really fine, when doing content like this it isn't noticeable at all
You're chilling. You were talking about video ideas and I think there could be a video talking about what boxes your team wants checkmarks in to be good this format. For example, does your team have wide guard, does it have weather control, etc.
@MoxieBoostedBattlePass I know you probably won’t see this but for college I have to do an ethnographic (pertaining to culture and cultural beliefs) essay, and besides defining how it is a culture I have to have a central theme or argument and as I couldn’t think of anything other than how pokemon is largely enjoyed by many different age demographics, I couldn’t help but think of the competitive scene leading me to you ( with you being one of the only two competitive players I watch). I was wondering if I can interview over emails.
Rusty Bottle Caps need to be a thing next gen bc I can't run my Calyrex as Shadow Rider due to having 31 atk IVs, or Ice Rider due to not having 0 spe IVs.
Okay is having 31 attack IVs on a calyrex Shadow Rider really that big of a deal though? Like confusion is not that common and anytime you even think there's going to be a dark move you might as well just tera fairy or fighting
Gotta be AS OPTIMAL AS POSSIBLE
@@grald1195 bro foul play is really common in this metagame, specially against caly-shadow. I think the difference from 7 atk ivs to 8 atk ivs is like a 3hko to a 2hko it's pretty insane
You deserve that for thinking of running caly shadow
@@genis1679 fair enough
The fact hitmontop gets intimidate has always been funny to me. He just be spinning… *menacingly*
Have you seen his 3d moves? Who wouldn’t be intimidated by him hitting the griddy on you?
Based on Capoeira, and imagine you are fighting someone and they do some of the shit Capoeiros do. Pretty scary.
ARAQUANID BROS, OUR TIME IS NOW
I sure wish that there was a more splashable wide guard user! Maybe put it on Incineroar?
Agreed on the first scentence. Respectfully, go to hell for the second one. 😂😂
Let’s give Incineroar Follow Me while we’re at it. Only what, 70% usage in Honolulu? That’s too low.
@@Endershock1678 Spore, enough said
@@21stCenturySchizoidGirl
Nah, that wouldn’t make sense. He’s not a grass type. Let’s give him pre-nerf Dark Void. He’s a dark type and gives Wolfey nightmares, so it fits.
Let's be honest guys, I can't understand how Incineroar doesn't learn Howl... Plz GF, keep the tradition of buffing Incineroar each generation by giving him Howl in gen 10 🙏
time to run frosmoth with icy wind, wide guard, and tailwind >:)
I sort of genuinely love a “wide guard” format. It takes a lot of skill and each player sweats every turn.
“The best move is actually like Astral Barrage or Glacial Lance”
Which is why you need Wide Guard in the first place.
I got into 1400s with Wide Guard Chestnaught, since all super effective hits on it are usually spread moves(glacial Lance, dazzling gleam, bleakwind storm, expanding force), and resists most popular ground coverage(high horse power on Ice Rider and earth power on Terrapagos). With taunt/protect and iron defence + body press it can set up against any single target physical attacks
Gamefreak listening to this: "guess it's time to give incin wide guard next gen"
Calyrex. Nuff said.
Also the big whale
@@vanochristian7639
The Whale is manageable. The turtle though…
@@Endershock1678 the turtle dies to zem
fun fact: regigigas learns wide guard. do with this information what you will.
Edit: not to give too many ideas, but Medicham and weezing are also in the game
No. Bad.
Solid. Ill use it next to Slaking
As someone who just got 9th in the most competitive tournament of reg G yet, even defeating players like wolfey, olymak, toler webb, fedecampo. using araquanid, i can say that it is indeed a pokemon
Are there vods anywhere? I would love to see that
>Didnt make top 8
Washed lol
@@keysmash_roa making a vid on it with some turn to turn analysis
This is swampert erasure
One of those busted legendary moves is not like the others
Required reading for every restricted format...memorize every Mon that learns wide guard as the vast majority are viable as niche picks
So something I had thought of, that very well could be trash but here it is anyways.
Since Araquanid has filler moves in its set in most cases, could one of the moves it runs be power split?
The only reason I even think of it, is because 99% of the time it’s getting its main value from wide guard and liquidation.
In a format where a lot of restricted mons are running clear amulet, Araquanid’s middling to poor attack stats allow it act as damage mitigation without having to take multiple turns to knock off the amulet. Could pressure a switch if suddenly your mon has its damage/boosting potential cut significantly.
It also has the benefit of pumping up your attack stat in a lot of cases and creating more damage potential for your already really strong liquidations.
It definitely errs on the side of gimmicky, but it’s an interesting niche that I think could use exploring. Obviously problems with the move involve basically requiring trick room+fake out support to actually get mileage out of it, and in a decent amount of cases, you may just get more value raw from clicking liquidation and dealing damage instead.
I feel like Top’s biggest flaw is mono fighting type
Feels like rillaboom is the only non restricted who can get away with mono typing
Everyone sleeping on bastiodon gets access to foul play, body press and can get over 200 def & SpDef. Great with the giraffe
What do you click foul play into? I was looking at investing evs into attack so heavy slam can ko some flutter manes
No Garganacl mention 😔
Garg has wide gaurd and even when you dont need wide gaurd Garganacl can still single handedly win you games
And Garg can live Astral Barrage because of purifying salt.
The off-the-cuff breakdown on topics is great and I love it
Thanks for the sub reminder. Honestly thought i was with the amount ive been consuming from this channel. Good stuff
Garganacl? Conkeldurr? Flamigo (this next to sd anything would be evil)?
I use an armarouge set that has ally switch along with wide guard. It's the only mon to learn both and by equipping a red card with plenty of bulk, you can really mess up your opponent's strategy.
I've been running a clear amulet physical Iron Valiant definitely not good but catches folks off guard
Would you say it catches them wide off guard?
I'm glad I finally got around to watching this video. I wonder if Stonjourner is being under rated with being able to protect the team with wide guard while giving a passive life orb boost to its partner with its ability power spot while on the field. Some big damage potential
While spectating showdown matches i saw someone with a support regigigas with wide guard, thunder wave & knock off
I used Hitmontop in the Blueberry Prologue. Intimidate, Fake Out and Wide Guard in one mon. I wish it would have better stats (HP)
Avalugg, wide guard iron defense body press goes crazy, sturdy is useful. Mirror coat can counter special attackers
At 9:20 Calyrex Ice is at +1 Atk so the calc is a bit wrong. Neutral Glacial Lance is a 3HKO on Araquanid.
Terapagos is cool when you treat it like keeping an Annihilape alive in earlier regulations
You don’t “need” close combat on hitmontop. Low kick gets the job done. Feint is a great recommendation though
I'm not so convinced about wide guard lunala. After you use your meteor beam you get walled by so many mons, I'd rather have some coverage like moonblast or psychic to not get walled and at least hit for neutral. And also, since mienshao pairs so well with shadow rider calyrex, why wouldn't the other psychic-ghost legendary be good with it? You run wide guard on mienshao while lunala goes for its setups, I think that'd work great
Agree with this. I’ve never used it myself, but I’ve beaten it several times on the ladder with a normal type with protect.
Miraidon next to Wide Guard Pelipper
You might want to update the damage calculator linked in the description to the one you're actually using in the video, since the one you link hasn't been updated for SV
Should be the nerd-of-now calc
Someone hmu with the outro song plz.
Good video though! Appreciate the knowledge.
Why wide garde is important three words “calorex shadow rider”
Would you suggest garcanacl since it also has wide guard and also purifying salt making ghost type moves weaker and being immune to staus
I didn't know that you need clayrex with 0 ivs in speed for make it to ice rider...i soft reset for glastier and get the 0 ivs one...next i combine them and find it that didn't work like that *PAIN*
It really is good. Then there are the genies, lots of rock slide users dazzling gleam flutters, heatwave chi yu. And never underestimate torkoal 😂
Garganacl is kinda nuts
This kinda makes me want to run Pelipper instead of Tornadus on my Terapagos team but my Water Urshifu already has the Focus Sash.
Check out the pelliper vid, it doesn’t need sash
Almost every Water Urshifu is using scarf. Just use that
I bet someone is gonna run teraelectric terablast calyrex shadow just for peliperp
No lmao
Imagine if game freak decided to give incenaroar wide guard or follow me or maybe ally switch too
Is improson gallade a thing?
I cant picture me not using mienshao
No no no it's protect lol
But Moxie, where is Frosmoth?
Moxie, I hear you say Meinsho is one of Caly-S best partners (probably to beat darks or whatever), but what would you do for Expanding Force? Would you just forgo that move on Caly and just spam AB and don't bother with anything else? Would you just terrain and switch to Meinsho or just don't bother with EF?
You could just not run EF. Wolfe won Honolulu with just Psychic. Or you can just run both. Mishi got 12th in a recent online event with Scarf Mienshao and Indeedee (though their Caly ran Psyshock).
I don't wanna be that guy buy every restricted that has a 120 power 100 accuracy spread move costs money right? Like they're all dlc?
Pretty sure there is a video talking about this on the main channel, but yes
Just a got a 6 star meinshifu raid
moxie doesn't understand the true meta. when i dragon dance with my necrozma and switch in flamigo to copy the boosts, my opponent (who didn't accept open team sheets) is terrified so they click their spread moves and i simply wide guard then tera ground eq them to death. also i can't wait to see you on the fridge, this is insane
What website are you using for the usage stats?
Limitless VGC
Garganacle has been winning me lots of battles
I want to run murkrow tailwind thunder wave foul play and maybe icy wind but I’m struggling fitting it in teams that don’t get blasted by shadow rider. Thoughts?
Don’t run murkrow?
@@trainerrichard6859 read the first 5 words again
Simple solution is _don’t run Murkrow._ It’s not good lol.
The Crow hasn’t been relevant since the beginning of Series 1 (there is no Reg A), and Whimsicott is strictly better, having access to Encore. Even then Whimsicott is extremely niche when compared to the Genes, especially Torn, which does almost everything it does better.
Teambuilding is very much a way to express yourself, and if you’re struggling to find use for a Pokémon, it’s usually better to try something else completely. I built a Dialga-O light Trick Room team, and was just never able to justify bringing my Cresselia to games over my other Pokémon. I scrapped her and added Iron Boulder instead, and the team felt SO much better afterwards.
If you _want_ to run Murkrow, try to build around it, rather than try to slot it into teams, but even then it’ll basically just be you trying to force it to work, which doesn’t ever feel good.
@@FrostGlader nuh uh
No shoutout to the Magic Coat Araquanid tech to absolutely clown on Terra Water Amoongus Spore
Just out of curiosity what happens if you have 2 Pokemon with wide guard and alternate it every turn, does it have a chance to fail or does it work every time?
You can spam wide gaurd every turn and it won't fail.
But if you go for wide gaurd you can't go for protect next turn
You dont need 2 you can spam with 1. Only protect will fail after
I see, I just assumed it worked the same way as protect.
Ty for telling me to check if I was subbed, I absolutely wasn't.
Wdy think about the prospect of using wide guard alongside spread moves like EQ and surf?
This is slander against tera grass stonjourner.
I am not subscribing.
Disliked for "could care less"
So glad Neil's annoying voice no longer making videos
Not as annoying as your existence
Marcos swooping in to fill the daily content vacuum and doing it miles better is my favorite result of the drama
What drama happened?
@@ryanp.2669 Neil was caught for being a transphobe and baiting people in Smogon by playing as a 16-year-old girl to try to catch a pedo
This is so unrelated to the video? 😭
