listen here bruh, where does the fire go after it hit you? it goes out right? where does the hot water go? ? it drips all down the Pokémon and burns that shit.
Shofu and Joey together are just like Arceus which is a Lord lol. Shofu by himself is a powerful dragonite. Love you shofu man keep up the great work and commentary.
i kinda have to agree with joey that scald is better. Yes, knock off has better utility because of it's ability to disarm pokes, the fact that many pokes can learn the move, and it is a dark type move which is literally one of the best typing moves right now........but knock off cannot turn the tide of matches as significantly as scald does. This is where scald holds much more power than knock off. Utility is nice and all, but if knock off's utility cannot significantly affect the probability off a match the way scald can, then it cant really be considered the better move. Scald's crippling effect, it's accuracy, and decently high base power makes it a move that can snatch victory from right under your nose. See, the way i describe pokemon is "a psychological game of wits in which your skill level is based on how well you control the odds of probability. Your goal is to create a higher chance of victory on your side, and to affect the tide of battle in a way that gives your opponent the lowest possibility of winning". A good example of this "controlling probabilities" is predicting your opponent and cornering them into a position where they have no choice but to rely on strong but highly inaccurate moves. Most people scream hax when their only chance of winning a game is hitting a focus blast, but if you pushed the odds in your favor for that to be your opponents only option, then technically you still played the game better than him or her. The whole point of that long spiel was to allude to the fact that scald has the same "psychological pressuring aspect" that makes an opponent's probability of winning that much smaller, the embodiment of the core aspect of competitive pokemon. The burn affect of scald creates that pressure by essentially putting a timer on pokemon. Pokes that thrive on stalling, now cant stall as well because they are burnt. Physical attackers (which heavily pervade the metagame) that either sweep or wall break are stopped in their tracks due to the burn chance of scald. If you were relying on a physical attacker to be your win condition and it happens to get burnt, well you're now shit out of luck. And as i mentioned before, scald is a pretty powerful move. The way scald turns the tides of games is so different from knock off that as much as i respect the utility of the move, i can say that scald is better. Plus water is a good typing in this metagame right now, not to mention that a good amount of pokes can learn scald
joey, shofu, y'all my favorites I swear. Among other things, y'all the only ones that reply when I talk shit and y'all always fuckin hilaaaarious. love and respect
I had no idea they changed feint. I saw back in Gen 4 that it only worked on pokes using protect/detect and I completely ignored it from then onward. If I would've noticed they changed it I would've been using it too, but this is literally the first time I've seen someone use that move since then... a shame any of the other -ate pokes cant learn feint.
Yo, it's Vampcoffee and the beat ain't even started. Said I used Fake Out and you did not Quick Guard it. 'bout to 6-0 trainers, leave'em dearly departed.
THE PLAYS ! ! You're not too bad at pokemon for a smash player shofu, I feel like if you were coached by Joey, you'd be able to reach Shizzy's level real quick lmao #sarcasm
@Shofu you gotta call no homo if you mention a mans booty pipe thats a pause moment right there pimpin also you and joey got a good dynamic I enjoy watching you play pokemon competitively again keep up the good vids man
Shofu and Joey together straight up makes my day :]
Hello Shofu,
My grandson loves your Pokemon shows. You are one of his favorite Pokemon internet artist
Thank you,
Betty
That is a really nice comment. I hope he still enjoys them and can understand its mostly just joking around and having fun.
How is it that a huge explosion of fire only has 10% chance of burning and hot water has a 30% chance of burning?
+Josney 26 Because pokemon
+Josney 26 hot water is pretty hot yo
listen here bruh, where does the fire go after it hit you? it goes out right? where does the hot water go? ? it drips all down the Pokémon and burns that shit.
How can a blizzard miss? How can an earthquake hit a ghost?
+Josney 26 I find it hilarious when people talk about pokemon as if it is supposed to be perfectly rational.
+shofu
That ACCURACY tho. Shofu, they don't call these moves Stone Miss, Fire Miss, Hydro Miss, Focus Miss, Misszzard and Misscane for nothing.
+Radryl Allen That might be because they don't call it misszzard.
+Pizza Shark it's because there are literally 2 mons viable with blizzard no one uses it for a reason
dylan frendlich Yup.
Draco Misseor
+Radryl Allen I'm pretty sure the pokemon games lie because focus blast's accuracy cannot possibly be more than 30
we need Shizzy and Pk.
and scoot
+Roy .Eristavi Slur is PK jr.
actually we need Wizhbone
Scoot. Pk. Shizzy. Max. Wizh and Akamaru in one video would make my life
and Zef, even tho he's never on showdown lives
They gotta make another move like Dragon Tail................................ Fairy Tail
Lol I bet it
There are two types of people....
+Bola Head das gay
why would you wanna make a garbage move?
I dont think anyone here gets the joke lol
I am LOVING how much Showdown you're putting out! These videos are always so fun :)
Shofu playing pokemon again makes me so fucking happy.
This channel hasn't had consistent mons uploads since gen 5 LOL
+Thisbemyalt ...you definitely haven't been on my channel since 2012 then
***** more '10 nigga
Bola Head *more like
twas a joke lol
He had consistent showdown uploads in XY just not oras
These are my favorite videos. Joey completes them
Glad competitive battles are back, especially with Joey
21:57 My man Joey spitting some Jwittz bars lmao
Are we just not gonna talk about how Joey made the most lordly prediction of all history the last turn at the end?
i'm saying that was disgusting.
Keep pokeaim around. He so fantastic
Upvoted for Dragon Tales.
Shofu's laughter gives me life
Wow, Slurderp's channel doesn't exist like Shofu's rapping skills.
Shofu and Joey together are just like Arceus which is a Lord lol. Shofu by himself is a powerful dragonite. Love you shofu man keep up the great work and commentary.
Joey seems to know the OU meta inside and out
I lost it when shofu yelled a slur for laughing at his intro and slur goes "I'm so sorry" still laughing LMAO
Ya know what's missing from these lives? Shofu shouting either "B B B B B B B B B BODY BAG!" or "HIT EM WITH ALLA DAT"
damnnnn my boy shofu is going ham with these pokemon showdown lives!!!!!
straight up
LOL shofu with that throwback Weezy line at the beginning
if you didn't want to miss with the fire blast on garchomp, should of used ember lol
These showdowns are GOLD
Isn't klefki based on the Japanese saying that there's a demon running around your house snatching your keys whenever you can't find em'
I mean, it doesn't look particularly menacing. Lol.
Well in demon I mean more like a "house demon". this little evil thing that lives in your house and snatches your keys
Yea. But these peasants know nothing bout japanese.

I feel like you're someone who would destroy your opponent in a game of chess.
+Nate Phan hahahaha you might be right if i actually played chess :)
joey, shofu, y'all my favorites I swear. Among other things, y'all the only ones that reply when I talk shit and y'all always fuckin hilaaaarious. love and respect
shofu i challenge you bro to beat someone while telling them your next move.
AYY NOT BAD. Love these showdown gameplays shofu, keep them coming.
Shofu finally realized he was the MVP of this pokemon shit.
I love Slur's laugh so much
I love all the showdown lives keep them coming!
I love how shofu manages to miss a move at least once in every video lol
Shofu constantly uploading pokemon showdown battles. Now if only I could say the same for wifi it would a dream come true
Hey always nice to see Slur on the Live
no team mom season 5
*Teen Mom
Fuccing auto correct
+Elias Artis it's actually teen mawm season 5
Now it's Teen Mawm season 7.
shofu finally realized he was the MVP of this pokemon shit.
My man Joey with them plays
Young shofu been a minute since I seen him on showdown
This nigga Joey is so real, with that Garchomp play.
Shizzy should be a permanent addition to these type of videos
holy shit joey making fucking plays, I didn't see that healing wish coming at all holy shit
I had no idea they changed feint. I saw back in Gen 4 that it only worked on pokes using protect/detect and I completely ignored it from then onward. If I would've noticed they changed it I would've been using it too, but this is literally the first time I've seen someone use that move since then... a shame any of the other -ate pokes cant learn feint.
Joey's plays are next level shit I swear...
Yo, it's Vampcoffee and the beat ain't even started.
Said I used Fake Out and you did not Quick Guard it.
'bout to 6-0 trainers, leave'em dearly departed.
Can you feel it now Mr. Krabs?
Klefki isn't a pair of keys. There are clearly more than two keys on that things. It is a single keychain holding a set of keys
jesus christ, Shofu these uploads have been so generous. God bless you bro. [I:
Dat fire beat of a water town
Tennis has been 1 on the ladder in a couple tiers. He's pretty solid.
The CAPTAIN pulling through.
Pulling out 😏
Next generation, Klefkis gonna get a Mega that makes it a door with a key in it
Slur has the best laugh lol
What is this music in the background? I'm really diggin' it...😚😁
nice and powerful session with joey
PS: Knock Off is obviously a better move than Scald
Shofu you need to buy these Pokemon glasses
Yo shofu these are hilarious. Yo gotta keep it up with these man
This man Shofu got Slur's link wrong ON PURPOSE
lol wtf I just decided to check out your stuff and see if more showdowns were uploaded lol
This video was good, but where are Shizzy and Scoot?
Nice, I look forward to these
HP fire does 67.8% max to Pinsir, I don't know why Joey thought that would kill.
slurderp's channel doesn't even exist
Woa what, i thought feint only worked when the opponent used protect! Daaamn that works pretty well with mega pinsir
is there a vid\mp3 of the instrumental though? shits fire
i love watching these, every vid is like a delicious cupcake
p.s. that damn garchomp is defective missing ho, send it back or give it a wide lens
That feint though
this was some good shit
now let me quote my man shofu
"AAAAAAAAaaaaaaAAH!~"
they pretended shofu didnt just start spazing right here! 5:25
Ok shofu another pokemon showdown!
A Dodmen UU team? I see you [:
W8...Does Feint have +2 priority?
I better never see quick attack on a mega pinsir anymore. Feint is the new meta.
man I feel dumb as hell for not knowing how feint worked after fourth gen, that's a good damn set man oh my lord
whats the tune in the background that shit is fire
Nice chill Undella Remix
lmfaooooo perfect legend. where dey at doe
Manaphy + Tail Glow = Winning
missed these [:
Weavile has good SDef? Please! SDef and especially Def are the LAST thing Weavile has.
+TheGamedawg You'll be surprised what Weavile can live with base 85 Spdef.
+TheGamedawg AV weevil is surprisingly tanky
+Young_Raymond Really? In that case I might have to try him out more. I always saw him as a glass cannon and nothing else.
Tanky? Weavile?? (Looks at Conkeldur) Uhhhh
It's obviously not the best set because you have to invest EVs in hp and spdef but it can definitely throw people off.
kelfki's design is more defendable then ventilux
Eevee edition today?
Where da legendary suicune at yo..?
I want my boy Shizzy here
