Excadrill is a good Pokemon in any game it's available in, and I can't say at all that I'm surprised. It's a powerhouse of a Pokemon that has a good type combination and the stats and moves to go with it.
I purposefully didn't use Aegislash in Ultra Moon because it was heavily featured in my Y and Sun team so I used Mimikyu as my ghost type. I lose the first time and created the ultimate annoyance in any Pokémon game, Toxic stall team. It worked really well against Ultra Necrozma.
10:27 no way you timed the cutscene that perfectly. It says "unfortunately, we're missing one, but" and then you show a picture of all water/ground types except Swampert.
“They don’t do particularly well against Shauntal and Grimsley” I think you meant to say Caitlyn on that one, due to her being a psychic type user, since Grimsley uses dark types. Dark types that get dominated by fighting types to be specific, since there’s no Mandibuzz. ^^;
"Let's grant the two best types of the game on a super fast af mon with insanely high attack, an ability that give it a free atk boost, a killer movepool, and its other counterpart barely gets anything". - someone at Game Freak, probably
Hence why shield is better :) Don't @ me but if you think zamazenta has better design or shield is better in any way you're literally wrong. Sword doggo best doggo.
Let's make 2021 a great year! Hope you enjoyed the series! Edit: I meant to say Fighting doesn't do well against Shauntal and **Caitlin**, not Grimsley, but I think most of you could figure that out yourselves lol
Btw they probably couldn't do Team Liquid because that's already taken by one of the largest esports brands in the world. Nintendo, for all their power and hatred of esports, knows better than to tango with lawyers lmao.
I replayed Black 2 recently, and I forgot how overpowered Excadrill was. I was even lucky enough to find one with an Adamant Nature and it's Sand Rush ability. The fact it gets Earthquake by level up and Iron Head through the move tutor in Driftveil is insane. Easily was the MVP on my team. Not even close.
I was surprised at first that Dragon wasn't one of the strongest types at all despite being so monsterous but now I kinda get it. Dragon doesn't necesarrily have an advantage over most types because it's only super effective against itself. Adding on, Dragon really took a long time to get going because in the first 2 gens there were only 2 dragon lines found very late game and in gen 3 they had more but they were mostly physical when the type itself was special back then. When they finally found some ground for their typing in gen 4 and got even better in gen 5, we...we all know what happened in gen 6. That along with Dragons lack of accesability most of the time means while it's extremely strong, it's not the best.
Although dragon type is my favourite, dragon type is only good because a majority of dragon types are excellent Pokémon overall. The type itself is kinda mid.
Dragon is still one of the best types to have as a secondary typing. 4 resistances and 3 weaknesses and only Steel to resist it makes a decent type to mix in with almost anything. Especially when a dragon's move set is so huge with TMs. Not as good as Steel, with 9 resistances, an immunity and only 3 weaknesses, but good nonetheless.
Steel type, created to balance the psychic type and Be a wall against everything else including dragon. Fairy type designed to balance the getting broken Dragon type. Gave poison a reason to exist and buffed Steel because fairy became almost broken.
@@mikewebsters4119 that's not completely true. I did a run of X with weaker pokemon a while ago and there were some tough battles. Especially for my Delphox, since Houndoom is immune to pretty much everything it can do.
@@robertlupa8273 my full team was Delphox, Drifblim, Barbaracle, Abomasnow (replacing a Gogoat), Scolipede, and Steelix. I did my best to keep a balance but limit to pokemon with less than 500 BST.
(In B/W 2) “The return of classic powerhouses like Metagross, Lucario, and Magnezone” “The only notable classic rock type that returned is Tyranitar” *Cries in Aggron*
In competitive? Sure it fared poorly. But in-game you can get Aron in Mistralton cave with iron head immediately, and it learns rock slide and bulldoze by TM, or maybe I am just biased ‘cause I used one in my Nuzlocke.
Ice-type is a great offensive type, looks at Mamoswine, that beast just kill everything in front of him, or bolt-bean for near total cover, Frosslass is a great suicide-lead and can dishout good damage with the right set, but its lack of defenses is just bad, and on top of thats, is weak to Steel...
Ice type is always underrated because they are bad enough in just enough ways that you would need a particular adventure to go on a romp with Ice types the way you can with Steel types.
@@yeetusdefeetus To be honest Dragons don’t really lost to Leon. You get Eternatus pretty much given to you who easily kills both his Haxorus and Dragapult
I never understood why people struggled with the Ultra Necrozma fight in USUM but thats probably cause without knowning anything about this battle i had a zoroark as my lead and a fighting type as his disguise. Didnt take a single hit
My first w2 nuzlocke team consisted of Magnezone, Krookidile, Stoutland AND Lapras (along with Emboar and an HM slave). Fighting types were pretty damn scary in that run.
Which when you find it, it is weak to grass (the first gym), and unless you're doing a professor oak challenge, it's extremely unlikely you'd have an excadrill, even then, it only provides a resistance, no super effective hits.
So is just "Steel was very good in the last four gens" the video. I never knew it was just so dominate. Hell they had a single Pokemon as a category for why it was good in gen 6. When they said steel was hard to break they weren't kiding.
I honestly would have said Normal is the best type in Unova, losing only to the fighting E4, and not struggling against Colress due to how many fighting and ground moves they can learn. They’re extremely versatile all game and there are a lot of good normal types like Stoutland, Braviary, and Bouffalant, their pool of choices only improving in BW2.
the movepool is specific to single mons, and 2 of the 3 mons you've mention (Braviary and Bouffalant) are found very late game in B/W, limiting their use. And as a type overall you must take into account also mid-low tier mons like Cincinno, Audino or Watchog, that lowers the average level of the type.
For Ultra Necrozma I had Zoroark in the front disguised as another party member and its most powerful move had no effect😭. Needless to say that fight was extremely easy for me.
I was going to ask if Gamefreak did any play testing to know that the moves they have on the Pokemon are effective... then I realized they didn't. They didn't have time with the tight development schedules. That's always been the problem with Pokemon since Gen 6, maybe longer.
Tbf Lucario isn’t the only Mega available in the main story but it’s still REALLY good. You can get the obvious Kanto Starter mega’s as well as Areodactal, Gengar, Ampharos, and a couple more I can’t remember.
Hey man! I think you missed hawlucha as arguabally the best fighting type, unburden high attack and speed stats and he wrecks almost everything. I love your grind and proud of how far you've come since being subbed for almost 5+ years at least! Congrats on 100k
archeops is op for an in game playthrough. Defeatist is hardly ever an issue. It is incredibly fast and one shots anything in its way for fun with 140 base attack and good coverage moves (rock, flying, ground and dragon). Honestly had so much fun using it.
I used Stamina Mudsdale in both SwSh version playthroughs, and it ab-so-luuuuute-ly *wrecks* the majority of Galar. the sheer amount of fairies and steels, along with the low number of notable dragon encounters means that having a Dragon Type on your team is going to be more a personal preference than a practical decision, but Ground/Fire/Steel is insanely good necessary coverage beyond the first two gyms.
This made me feel happy i the love ground type its my favourite type also im a ground type gym leader in way to many discord servers with gym challenges
This was an awesome series! Maybe you can do a spinoff series where you look at the best type for the regions in side games like ranger and conquest! (Edit)....... oh, I just said to do a spinoff series on spinoff titles, and now realized it.
JPR: Ground and Steel are the best Galar types Meanwhile me, with my Ferrothorn holding a Rocky Helmet, with Iron Defense and Rest, as well as a Will-O-Wisp and Stealth Rock Runerigus: yeah...i kinda figured...
I played Pokemon Sword....I only had five permanent team members, and one was basically just my mascot (and was there to humiliate Bede). Of the four who actually did things, the one who did the most things was....my Copperajah, who knew Bulldoze basically the whole game and just steamrolled everything in its path. When in doubt, kill it with elephant.
gen 1=psychic type gen 2=rock/steel/fairy/fire gen 3=steel/fighting/ground gen 4=fire/ghost/water gen 5=fighting/fairy/rock/steel gen 6=steel gen 7=fairy/STEEL gen 8=ground/STEEL so 6/8 region the best type is STEEL
All this is telling me is that whenever Game Freak wants to add a new type they irresponsibly make it overpowered, it breaks the current meta completely, and it takes either a new game, or possibly one or two generations for them to adequately balance it out. On the opposite end, types that were generally weaker in the earlier games, tend to remain weak to this day considering they've basically been unaltered except when it comes to added type. And since EVERY new generation somehow has to follow the same model of keeping things similar to the GEN 1 Pokémon (All Bug types are early game throwaways, All Normal types either early game throwaways or tanks, the Flying type tacked on just to give Electric types something to do) it doesn't give Game Freak enough of a reason to revise the model to make every type feel advantageous to use.
Do something similar with starter Pokémon. Basically you take a starter Pokémon like a Bulbasaur and. And then you check to see how good it is and all the regions except for the Kanto games
U know who's also Ground/Steel? Steelix. Poor Pokemon never gotten an spotlight. Though it would've if it gotten more beef up or something. Yeah. I'll stick to Excadrill. Sorry.
Even with a mega Steelix just doesn't work for most people. It did just about everything it could to make up for how bad Onix is, but it's kinda permanently tainted.
@@aksis2133 it's not that it doesn't work it's that it's locked behind a dumb retarded Mechanic called trade evolution so no one ever wants to get a Steelix because it's a complete pain. It's just not worth the hassle when theirs so many other good easy to get steel types.
Your negative in Sword and Shield should be for steel: "Metagross and Magnezone are DLC exclusive." Magnemite is on the Isle of Armor and Beldum is Crown Tundra, but it's Level 60 so yeah.
As a steel type fan i at first felt happy that my favorite type was the best in most regions... But then i realized that steel is kinda broken, i feel that something needs to be immune to it, would it suck? Yup... is it necessary? Most likely unfortunately...
I'm not sure what would be immune to steel, but something needs to. If they add a new time i think it should be sound and time, maybe time can be immune to steel idk
While metagross and magnezone aren’t in base galar games they are in dlc so would Steel be better if you have dlc or would it still be ground? Also, do you think you might do a Best Monotype team for each region? I know that would be a longer series but I personally would appreciate it as I have been playing a couple monotype run throughs lately
Actually, you can get a steel type before the first gym in xy! You can get a riolu on route 22, just of santalune city. And since it evolves with friendship, you can get a Lucario without wild over leveling. Would you ever do this? Probably not, it'd still take forever, but you can do it if you want to!
Do the best and worst types in pokemon games that aren’t main series! Example: Best and Worst types in the Orre region, Pokémon Masters main story, etc.
Wait I think you should have also taken the dlc into account as well as they do count as enhanced versions now. If you were to include them I would say ground does have a slight advantage as while the rivals Avery and Klara use different types they still use galarian slowbro and slowking later, Peony also uses steel types so that does put another advantage to ground.
What does the DLC have to do with the main story? The DLC is extra stuff tacked on. Yes it replaces the 3rd game but that doesn't mean it changes base Galar in any substantial light.
Bet they have a fighting, Dark, fire, ground, electric, ghost, and water gyms for next gym to say no to steel types. Along with the supposed checked gym having coverage

Steel is a fairy weakness so besides gens 5 and earlier can explain domination in gens 6-present
It is really good but it usually gets ohkoed by something with a super effective move against it (most of the time it doesn't even have to be stab).
This video was brought to you by Excadrill
And Klefki
I honestly would have said Normal is the best type in Unova, losing only to the fighting E4, and not struggling against Colress due to how many fighting and ground moves they can learn. They’re extremely versatile all game and there are a lot of good normal types like Stoutland, Braviary, and Bouffalant, their pool of choices only improving in BW2.
the movepool is specific to single mons, and 2 of the 3 mons you've mention (Braviary and Bouffalant) are found very late game in B/W, limiting their use.

When you were listing steel types in Galar I think you forgot one... the best one...
U know who's also Ground/Steel? Steelix. Poor Pokemon never gotten an spotlight. Though it would've if it gotten more beef up or something. Yeah. I'll stick to Excadrill. Sorry.
Even with a mega Steelix just doesn't work for most people. It did just about everything it could to make up for how bad Onix is, but it's kinda permanently tainted.
@@aksis2133 it's not that it doesn't work it's that it's locked behind a dumb retarded Mechanic called trade evolution so no one ever wants to get a Steelix because it's a complete pain. It's just not worth the hassle when theirs so many other good easy to get steel types.
Your negative in Sword and Shield should be for steel:
"Metagross and Magnezone are DLC exclusive."
Magnemite is on the Isle of Armor and Beldum is Crown Tundra, but it's Level 60 so yeah.
As a steel type fan i at first felt happy that my favorite type was the best in most regions... But then i realized that steel is kinda broken, i feel that something needs to be immune to it, would it suck? Yup... is it necessary? Most likely unfortunately...
I'm not sure what would be immune to steel, but something needs to. If they add a new time i think it should be sound and time, maybe time can be immune to steel idk
jpr decides to make this video series the steel type hippity hoppity these videos are our property
People used to laugh when I said steel types are my favorite. Well they're not laughing now!
In my sun game I had a Sylveon and a Primarina, so many fights were so easy. The last trial I won in one move
While metagross and magnezone aren’t in base galar games they are in dlc so would Steel be better if you have dlc or would it still be ground?
Also, do you think you might do a Best Monotype team for each region? I know that would be a longer series but I personally would appreciate it as I have been playing a couple monotype run throughs lately
I used an alakazam in alola. While it did good, because I gave it a good set, I did notice it kinda sucked in a lot of fights
Bro, what is that version of "Mezase Pokemon Master" in the intro. That sounds NICE.
Me:
JPR: *post new video*
Me: “Don’t mind if I do”
Actually, you can get a steel type before the first gym in xy! You can get a riolu on route 22, just of santalune city. And since it evolves with friendship, you can get a Lucario without wild over leveling.
Would you ever do this? Probably not, it'd still take forever, but you can do it if you want to!
Video: Steel got nerfed in gen 6.
Also video: Steel is the best or second best type to use in almost every game introduced since Gen 6.
Minor correction here, a steel type is actually available prior to Viola in Kalos via Lucario.
You can say, the steel type ''steels'' the best typing election.
Dude, your intros never miss
Do the best and worst types in pokemon games that aren’t main series! Example: Best and Worst types in the Orre region, Pokémon Masters main story, etc.
Lucario having both the best and worst typing in Kalos is pretty funny
Steel is my fav type! Super underrated
People only talk about fairy and dragon all the time
so, do a mono ground run in shield is basically easy mode?
Excadrill go brrrrrrrrrrr
If you have a water/ground in there it goes from easy mode to basically free.
Oh, boy do I love the Steel type.
I've always liked the Electric type and Steel
Wait I think you should have also taken the dlc into account as well as they do count as enhanced versions now. If you were to include them I would say ground does have a slight advantage as while the rivals Avery and Klara use different types they still use galarian slowbro and slowking later, Peony also uses steel types so that does put another advantage to ground.
What does the DLC have to do with the main story? The DLC is extra stuff tacked on. Yes it replaces the 3rd game but that doesn't mean it changes base Galar in any substantial light.
@@aaronwishard7093 Does it change base Galar at all?
There's a reason as to why my favourite type is Steel, and this explains why.
You can make a goated bug type team in Unova
so next gen im go to get a lot of steel types on my team lol
Bet they have a fighting, Dark, fire, ground, electric, ghost, and water gyms for next gym to say no to steel types. Along with the supposed checked gym having coverage
9:30 This pleases the R O S E
2:00 Now that I think about it, munna and musharna could fit as fairies, even if it is as a secondary typing.
Shouldn't be surprising given that Steel has been the strongest type overall since around Gen 4
