Also you should give a shout out to the Skill Link Minccino that you are shown via that event with Bianca, its Tail Slap is enough to bruteforce a lot of Pokémon and it also gets Rock Blast and Bullet Seed via move reminder. It's honestly a menace and I'd try it out if you haven't already.
I can confirm Arcanine can take BW2 by storm... When I evolved it, it was right before Skyla's gym.. and I OHKO'd her swanna with T-Fang (heart scales, so good), funny thing is, i was one level lower than her ace.
I love the way you analyse the opponents and their pokemon, reminds me of my nerdy things I do. You earned a sub! 😉 Btw congrats to being so close to 2k
my go to team has always been samurott, magnezone, lucario, arcanine, zoroark and whatever else i can find, sometimes roserade sometimes sigilyph, just depends.
Do held items and natures play a part in your best teams? I noticed for your pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver best team you used the focus sash held item. Also for a suggestion I think you should include the movesets for each of the best team videos that don’t have them shown yet. (Platinum, Emerald, Fire Red/Leaf Green)
Generally no, natures and items are not a factor in determining the members. I made an exception for pokemon heartgold and soulsilver because the 40+ level gap is too huge for any pokemon to survive one hit. And thanks for the suggestion! I've been pondering doing just what you suggested for a while and I appreciate that you thoroughly browsed my channel.
For Arcanine you can also delay evolving your Growlithe until level 43 so it learns Outrage. I did that on my most recent playthrough and Arcanine came in clutch so often, especially against Drayden and Iris
I did that in a previous playthrough! The reason I opted not to include outrage in the final moveset is because against Iris, beating her involves a lot of pivoting between members to cripple her pokemon's attacks, and when Arcanine uses outrage, she becomes locked in and cannot be switched out, which guarantees she will be defeated (assuming you don't grind the team's levels of course). Arcanine's role in the team is more defensive than offensive, so I would rather use dragon pulse for specific situations where Arcanine is guaranteed to finish off one of Iris's dragon pokemon with an attack so that you can use her offensively, but are still able to utilize her intimidate ability and pivot with other team members to take out other pokemon from Iris's team. At the end of the day though to each their own! I did include outrage in Arcanine's final moveset for Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Feel free to check out that video.
@@DFuegoH Thanks for the reply, that makes a lot of sense! Playing the pivots is definitely the way to go for the safe route, Iris especially since she has so many that dragon pulse works well on, plus with the intimidates its a good strategy. My white playthrough i had stoutland and krookodile both with intimidate and it was fun but an easier elite four in that one
omg no joke this was very close to my team when I first played BW2. I just had a Whimsicott instead of Scrafty cause it was my favourite pokemon at that time. I guess young me was a lot better at team building than me rn ;)
I literally subscribed as soon as you said thanks for the 1000 subs you sounded genuine and it takes a millisecond to do haha and I’m high as shittttt idek how I got here
I definitely disagree with the Krooko pick, if you have Scrafty and another intimidate user all you're really picking Krooko for is to use ground move and Exca is better at that by a mile. The Exca/Scrafty combo is honestly good enough to sweep 3 of the 4 elite 4 on its own.
@@jonvance3527since the original commenter isnt here. I'll do it hope you dont mind. Excadrill: Earthquake (lvl up) Rock Slide (lvl up) Shadow Claw (tm) Swords Dance/Hone Claws (both lvl up) Excadrill is remarkably speedy, so this set is meant for it take out any threat without too much trouble. I put Shadow Claw cause Exca doesnt learn much of any coverage moves for its Water/fighting weakness, but with its speed and power, plus both not resisting ground mean you can kill them off quick and easy Scrafty: Brick Break/Drain Punch (lvl up/move tutor) Crunch (lvl up) Zen Headbutt (Move Tutor) Rock Slide/Thunder Punch (Tm/Move tutor) This moveset is much the same except I prefer drain punch. Scarfty is less speedy and more tanky, so using Drain Punch to get some health back is always good. Brick Break has the same power but is more niche as it can remove screens. Its still realy good but I recommend Drain Punch. Crunch is there for stab, Zen Headbutt and rock slide/thunder punch are here for coverage against flying and fighting types. I recommend Thunder Punch for accuracy and chance to paralyze. But also because Scrafty is slower so you might not get that many flinches since you're probably gonna get hit first
Great team overall and I found my own playthrough team quite similar to yours I kind of disagree with the scrafty pick as there is no need for two dark types and I will choose heracross instead It have above average special bulk that one fire blast from hydriegon wouldnt kill and can outspeed and one shot hydregon, aggron and lapras so it is better than having an overlapped type and provides an additional bug type Guts also allow it to one shot many pokemon with neutral close combat which is learnt at level 34 In my playthrough if I do not have a type strong against a gym I will let my heacross get poisoned and spam close combat which works for most gym leaders apart from skyla Maybe I might be biased as it is one of my favourite mons and I used it in every pokemon game possible but it almost never disappoints me
@@DFuegoH No problem, there is always room for improvement. I am going to run this team with excadrill in Black 2 Challenge Mode now. I think your movesets could be a lot better though.
It's the level curving of the game. The games were developed so that pokemon level up more quickly than the older games where without grinding you could beat the game with a team with members in the 30's. In short, you literally can't go lower than the 40's. Level 48 is the number the team reaches when defeating all the obstacles in the game without any extra grinding. The true measure of a strength of a team is if it can beat the obstacles in the game without any grinding, or as I call it, #abusethebidoof. Level 48 reflects the team that has achieved that in this game, hence what's so special about it.
Thanks a lot ❤, I used the same team in my Black 2 play through and literally defeated iris with 50lvl Mons, Have the hall of fame video in my channel, Your strategy helped a ton defeat iris and e4, especially U-Turn crobat. I would love to use more of your teams in other playthroughs🙌
Looking for a team for the Pokémon world tornament and also good move sets for the team because I was able to beat unova and kanto cup with my high speed and attack Pokémon but once u get to jhoto it starts getting complicated and technical with yawn and pain split and held items that reduce super effective damage, so I need a cheesy team that destroys all that
Personally I don't believe Moxie is as reliable as Intimidate for Krookodile. The team is very defensively oriented because of the overbearing nature of Iris's dragon pokemon, and the boost in attack wouldn't make a difference if Krookodile is taken out in one or two turns. Intimidate is better for enabling him and the other team members to tank the physical attacks of Iris's team that normally would be overwhelming, so that there is a chance they can mount a counter attack. Besides, Scrafty has the Moxie ability already, and he has enough defensive bulk and the right moveset to utilize that ability better than Krookodile.
If it's available in the Unova region, it's fair game. If you want a team that only uses pokemon that were introduced in the Unova region, feel free to check out my pokemon black and white 1 best team.
Hardcore nuzlocker, I take it? Don't you worry. I have an upcoming series that will make hardcore nuzlockes look easy, despite potions being allowed (revives aren't btw). Hit the sub button so you can see it when it comes out!
Would conkeldurr still work if you have access to trade evos (like with emulators)? I don’t mind using what you recommended on your team but I’m curious on how it would work with the other members
I think so! Conkeldurr's attack stat is 50 points higher than Scrafty's which means that he would recover more health when using drain punch , but at the same time his special defense is 50 points lower than Scrafty's which means he would take more damage as well. That said, his hp is also 40 points higher than Scrafty's, so I think he would be able to survive two hits from Hydreigon and defeat Hydreigon with drain punch. Of course the only way to know for sure is to test him out for yourself 😉
Cause I don’t know how to trade pokemon using ds emulators 😂😂 In all seriousness though, including trade evos as options doesn’t change the core members of the team, so the teams for this channel would not look much different anyway. I received a lot of flack for including trade evos on my fr/lg best team, even though trading on gba emulators is much easier than ds emulators, so I figured that I might as well avoid trade evolutions if it’s difficult for me to access them. So to your answer question, I don’t include trade evolutions for practicality purposes.
@@DFuegoH Oh, I thought pretty much every fan of the old pokemon games would have a physical copy and at least one other game in the same generation along with both a DS and a 3DS. Seems like a rather natural concept to base the potential of these teams off of, but maybe I'm some freakishly crazy abnormal person.
@@Hatchumosc1 nah you’re perfectly normal. I have hard copies of Pokemon Games from Gens 3-5. The other games I’ve only played through emulator. Been a fan of Pokemon since I was 7 years old.
My team for white 2 goes as follows Samurott Electivire Arcanine Flygon Roserade Mienshao I honestly thinks it's a fun team overall and gets the job done 👍

@@DFuegoHwhat move would you replace in the water starter pokemon for surf? Surf is kinda necessary to get around the map
@@jwz4794 None. The movesets are for when you challenge the elite 4 and champion. You can use surf as much as you like before challenging the elite 4. That's what I did
When the world needed him most, he returned!!
can't go wrong with the classic grass-fire-water + steels core:
+ azurill - marill - azumarill - floccesy ranch - ridiculous early game mon, you want huge power, also good for hms
+ darumaka - darmanitan - route 4 - another ridiculous beast with 140 base atk, fire punch, flare blitz, u-turn, superpower, stone edge, earthquake, laughs at shauntal's cofagrigus
+ petilil - lilligant - route 4 trade (black 2) or castelia city (w2) - sleep powder + lv. 28 quiver dance
+ cinccino - route 5 guided encounter w bianca - skill link + tail slap + rock blast + the main event BULLET SEED, spitting seeds in your bulky water/rock/ground type's face while they slowly wilt away
+ drilbur - excadrill - eats most physical attacks for breakfast, laughs at toxic/thunder wave. lv. 33 earthquake, just be careful of fire, water, fighting & ground type attacks
+ skarmory - my flier + spikes is good to break sturdy (marshal)/focus sashes like iris (haxorus) and benga (volcarona)
honorable mentions:
+ haxorus - he's the don but never got him as I was playing nuzlocke style first encounter
+ krook - moxie is the better ability, one boost makes him hit harder than slaking
+ rk9 - solid but mixed stats ain't gonna cut it
+ mag - overrated but another solid pick
Also you should give a shout out to the Skill Link Minccino that you are shown via that event with Bianca, its Tail Slap is enough to bruteforce a lot of Pokémon and it also gets Rock Blast and Bullet Seed via move reminder. It's honestly a menace and I'd try it out if you haven't already.
Yup I had that, thing was a beast, I was mad as hell when mine died. It was carrying my nuzlocke for a while.

Ok give a set up for both
@@jonvance3527since the original commenter isnt here. I'll do it hope you dont mind.
Excadrill:
Earthquake (lvl up)
Rock Slide (lvl up)
Shadow Claw (tm)
Swords Dance/Hone Claws (both lvl up)
Excadrill is remarkably speedy, so this set is meant for it take out any threat without too much trouble. I put Shadow Claw cause Exca doesnt learn much of any coverage moves for its Water/fighting weakness, but with its speed and power, plus both not resisting ground mean you can kill them off quick and easy
Scrafty:
Brick Break/Drain Punch (lvl up/move tutor)
Crunch (lvl up)
Zen Headbutt (Move Tutor)
Rock Slide/Thunder Punch (Tm/Move tutor)
This moveset is much the same except I prefer drain punch. Scarfty is less speedy and more tanky, so using Drain Punch to get some health back is always good. Brick Break has the same power but is more niche as it can remove screens. Its still realy good but I recommend Drain Punch. Crunch is there for stab, Zen Headbutt and rock slide/thunder punch are here for coverage against flying and fighting types. I recommend Thunder Punch for accuracy and chance to paralyze. But also because Scrafty is slower so you might not get that many flinches since you're probably gonna get hit first
I have a pretty cool team:
Wakaba the Serperior
Faraday the Magnezone
Magnum the Magmortar
Boxers the Scrafty
Epigene the Flygon

But in all seriousness nice video congratulations on 1000
I only use 5 Pokémon but
Samurott
Magnezone
Scrafty
Volcarona
Flygon
Great team overall and I found my own playthrough team quite similar to yours
I kind of disagree with the scrafty pick as there is no need for two dark types and I will choose heracross instead
It have above average special bulk that one fire blast from hydriegon wouldnt kill and can outspeed and one shot hydregon, aggron and lapras so it is better than having an overlapped type and provides an additional bug type
Guts also allow it to one shot many pokemon with neutral close combat which is learnt at level 34
In my playthrough if I do not have a type strong against a gym I will let my heacross get poisoned and spam close combat which works for most gym leaders apart from skyla
Maybe I might be biased as it is one of my favourite mons and I used it in every pokemon game possible but it almost never disappoints me
I definitely agree Heracross is a very well rounded pokemon I thought he would replace Lucario with him instead of Scrafty.
Meanwhile all speedrunners cares only about excadrill 😂
Cool video, love this kind of stuff
Congratulations for your 1000 subs, I am glad I was one of the 1000
