Mega Garchomp Could work if it has a Better Ability and reduce the Attack and Special Attack and give it to its Sp.Def, Def and Spe. There you have a another Mega Salamence.
Chomp is the GOAT, it really is. Even now Rough Skin is awesome to punish Surging Strikes, but not just that, it still really gets you out of more sticky situations than you may expect. Far more than when I used Lando instead to be honest. SD Chomp with some bulk + Yveltal even got me into the Top 100 this season. Also, I really feel like Garchomp deserves to be called Pseudolegendary, not just in the numbers game, I had a few games where I went up against Zygarde and Chomp did go toe to toe with it.
Yes I remember shoddy battle, the early one looked like windows notepad with colored text, haha, you had to read your battles!, and before they had graphics, you had to follow your battle among everybody's battle at the same time!, man such a classic
Only just discovered you have a channel and am currently backlogging myself with all your content. Just wanted to make a quick stop to say “my guy, you looking jacked in this vid!”
@@RayRizzoVGC As I don't know wether you are spoiler free, I will try and keep the rumours I've heard out of this message, but I think that if Chomp can find a good Tera-type, it will be very powerful especially. I am considering the ramifications of Steel/Water type personally. Steel to counter its fairy/dragon weaknesses and hit ice harder, water to reduce the ice weakness. It kinda depends on if the new mechanic adds a type onto a pokemon in addition, or if it just replaces the type entirely.
Garchom is my favorite Mon, and I think that this would probably break it in a bad way. If anything, I'd instead move up to 8 points from HP to speed. Makes it a little faster, retains its mixed attacker sets, and it only loses a little bulk. Or give it dragon dance when the time is right. Chomp is still really good right now so I'm not sure it's due for a buff just yet. But we are getting close.
How are the chances for you doing some series 12 stuff? Gotta say, I would have liked a two restricted format without Dynamax, since games snowball like crazy with it, but I also got to say I want to see how you play and possibly some teambuilding. Series 12 will stick around for a good while, so I hope to see some more innovation finally.
Ray what’s your best advice for using non meta Pokémon, I really would love to see a team building guide from you as I feel that’s the biggest thing I struggle with and many others do. I don’t like playing Pokémon just spamming Super popular meta mons
My best advice for that is to find a specific niche that it can fill and other meta Pokémon can’t. For example, some people really liked the design of Centiskorch and really wanted to see it work. It’s not meta and not a particularly good Pokémon, but it has a typing that lets it destroy Zacian (resists all of steel, fairy, and fighting). Since Zacian has been so incredibly powerful and common in all of these formats with restricted mons, you’re able to make a non-meta Pokémon work thanks to that specific niche. It might not ever see serious success in official tournaments, but it’s good enough to see small amounts of success and have fun using at the same time. We saw Sejun win worlds with Pachirisu because it was able to do something every other Pokémon couldn’t do as well as it. Not every non-meta Pokémon will have a niche unfortunately, as a lot are just simply outclassed in every way by meta Pokémon, but there’s a decent chunk you can at least point to and say “no one does ____ better than [insert non-meta mon]. Then you just have to find one of those niches that could actually be useful in the current meta, and build a team around it with that in mind. I’d like to put out a team building video at some point, thanks for the suggestion and comment :)
@@RayRizzoVGC wow the goat replies! Thank you for taking the time to reply to it. I honestly really wanna make abomasnow work so bad just struggling a lot same with milotic. Abomasnow just has not that great stats and 4x weakness to fire. And rillaboom is everywhere for Milotic. Also, I would love to see a team building guide all the steps you use. And even a better idea is for you a video is for you to take a Pokémon or idea you want to build around and show us from scratch how a 3 time world champ would construct a team! Then try to win with it in ladder. That kind of video hasn’t been done before would be awesome!
The clickbait is kind of trash, but I watched it because it was Ray Rizzo, and I was pleasantly surprised that there were a good amount of pauses with in depth commentary/information only you can provide, in contrast to some others who just watch it and not really add much to the video itself.
Unsubbing until these types of videos aren't a thing for your channel anymore. I know TPCI did the big dumb in not having BDSP be this year's VGC format, but...come on. I literally unsub to people for reasons like this.

mega Garchomp gaining speed doesnt make thematic sense though...
sand rush mega chomp be like:
Ya just change its ability to sand rush then reduce special attack to boost its speed or Special Defense/Defense.
give flygon it's mega

Double team sand veil brightpowder chomp is kinda fun in bdsp too
Rough Skin + Rocky Helmet is my favorite combination for Garchomp in SwSh.
Tyranitar>>>>
Ayooooo ray just did my request hyped for this kind of series
I always love whenever FSG covers the VGC 2010 format because he inevitably shows your team with all the Rush inspired nicknames!
Yes I remember shoddy battle, the early one looked like windows notepad with colored text, haha, you had to read your battles!, and before they had graphics, you had to follow your battle among everybody's battle at the same time!, man such a classic
oh my god i remember shoddy battle.. that memory had been lost into some deep dark corner in my brain and now its back..
World Champ React Series btw thanks for putting my comment on the video
Only just discovered you have a channel and am currently backlogging myself with all your content. Just wanted to make a quick stop to say “my guy, you looking jacked in this vid!”
omg! Rey Rizzo reacting to false swipe! I'm in! :D
You could also do a reaction video about either Metagross or Ttar or maybe both
Great video Ray keep it up!!!
Wolfe's "biggest lie you believe about pokemon" would be good for next time
hey there happy to see you are finally doing some general interest videos and not just videos showing battles. Keep up the good work
I totally enjoy this content!
The GOAT talking about the GOAT(chomp)
The Fucking Legend himself
Is Garchomp gonna be any good in Scarlet/Violet? What do y'all think?
I think it will be very good, especially in a limited dex environment like we’re bound to see the first few months after Scarlet/Violet’s release

Hey Ray Rizzo! Would love to see you playing bdsp vgc!
Yo this how you trigger every garchomp hater: move 20-30 points from special attack to speed.
Garchom is my favorite Mon, and I think that this would probably break it in a bad way. If anything, I'd instead move up to 8 points from HP to speed. Makes it a little faster, retains its mixed attacker sets, and it only loses a little bulk.
Or give it dragon dance when the time is right. Chomp is still really good right now so I'm not sure it's due for a buff just yet. But we are getting close.
Alternatively, you could cut the sand veil ability or give it a new secondary ability.
Since when did RUclips put a special effect around the like button when the video talked about it?
Plz comeback with Series12 contents!!!😢

The chances are 100%! I’ll be making series 12 content as soon as it starts :)
@@RayRizzoVGC Thanks, great to hear that. :D
could you react to how good was salamance actually?
FSG Gothitelle or Emboar next?
Hopefully the piggy
I checked the FSG channel but I didn’t see any on Gothitelle, otherwise I’d love to watch and react to that!
Only react videos I'd ever watch +1
Breeding Garchomp in Platinum right now. 6 (not full) days in...
lets go
00:01 yo!
Please react to how good was scizor actually?
will you react to the other "how good was [Pokemon] actually" videos FalseSwipeGaming has done like Charizard or Salamence?
Are you kidding me? I had to grind up to 83 to take down Cynthia’s Garchomp!
or for FSG. how great was scizor
