Thanks! Just went 10-0 in my last two sets with a regular kingdra 🤣. This thing is crazy. I didn’t have one but luckily had an old horsea that was barely under 1500 evolved. (I’m only 1750ish ELO)
This looks like a great team! I don't have a Toxapex of my own, nor a Jumpluff, so this cup has been a struggle. How can I improve the team Gastrodon, Abomosnow, Talonflame (not good IVs and I don't want to use an elite TM for Incinerate)?
@@sleepy3151 Incinerate is a Legacy move so I would have to use an Elite TM. Those are valuable so I don't want to invest in a Talonflame that is not good
Fire Spin got a buff recently so might work out better for you than you would think, although Incinerate still is preferable. Definitely dont elite tm it though, I even didnt do that on my rank #1 Talonflame. I’ve got a rank #7 Talon with Incinerate too, which is nice enough for me.
I have a rank one Great league regular Kingdra and I’ve built a team similar to this before seeing this video but my team has Kanto Ninetales in the back
Shadow Alolan Exeggutor, perhaps, is you happen to have one. I just played with Toxapex lead with a Shadow Kingdra + Shadow Alolan Exeggutor. Not as weak vs Morpeko as in the excellent RUclips showcase, I think, however. Might turn out be a bit too squishy sometimes, but the Shadow Dragon Breaths are just amazing.
It isn’t worth using. The main selling point is to do 3 damage per dragon breath to toxapex. Normal kingdra does only 2 so it’s much weaker against the strongest mon in the cup. Breakpoints are important for 1-turn moves.
Just play Ufisk in the lead. You’re quite safe if any Morpeko shows up. In backline it’s sensible to be fine against Grass Pokémon (for example, I used a Shadow Alolan Marowak). Jumpluff might be a good third mon, since you want to cover mud bois as well.
Ran serperior lead for 2 sets. Ran into 8 out of 10 shadow Awaks. Swapped to gastrodon lead and immediately got a serperior lead in return. This game is a joke. I'm done playing pvp.
you’ve easily become my favorite Pogo creator, thank you for doing what you do champ
I can't believe SHADOW KINGDRA hasn't been available since 2021 😢
It’s so stupid…hopefully we will get it in next rotation, and maybe even a shiny possible from one of the leaders
It's available as of now !!
I have the rank 1 (0-15-13) shadow kingdra from 2021. Im gonna try it, greetings man. 🥳

I only have the non-shadow Kingdra. Do you recommend using it?
Great team. 4/1 in the First test!
Great video Substitute for jumpluff?
I only have a acrobatics
You could have kept the secret a little longer! Haha, Kingdra is my favorite for this cup
I ran into a couple shadow kings. Mudbomb Quagsire makes it pretty uncomfortable for them. Especially if you aquatail bait the second move.

Why not use a TM?

@ELEMENTAL-COMIX sorry, I meant elite TM. I understand though, not wanting to invest one into a Talon with meh ivs

Thank you sir, i got back over 2000 with this team today
How do you play the mirror Shadow Kingdra in lead? Breathe it down and hope you win?
@@cryptozookeeper yeah
Would a normal kingdra work? Have everything else but the kingdra sadly
@@EUSOUGT yeah, not as good at 2s through things though sadly
Oh hey it’s me! Also, I’ve been wanting a shadow Kingdra for a long time, please bring it back Niantic!
Just checked. Got a r4 GL shadow Kingdra from 2021. Here we go 😂
Thanks AXN!

Will try this team later 😁😁
Replacement mon for Kingdra?
@@akanome4141 non shadow kingdra or Gyarados could work, but kingdra is hard to replace... In a couple days shadow palkia 👀
Shadow Alolan Exeggutor, perhaps, is you happen to have one. I just played with Toxapex lead with a Shadow Kingdra + Shadow Alolan Exeggutor. Not as weak vs Morpeko as in the excellent RUclips showcase, I think, however. Might turn out be a bit too squishy sometimes, but the Shadow Dragon Breaths are just amazing.
I have a lucky kingdra with 13-14-15 would it be good not being a shadow?
@@MigBuu it could work, but it wouldn't be quite as good at 2 shielding for switch
Kingdra really deals an catastrophical amount of damage😱
How does a good IV non-shadow Kingdra do? "Not quite as powerful" so would you play it the same way?
It just has less fast move pressure.
@@mikebing1230 Yes, but should it be used the same way: lead & double shield?
It isn’t worth using. The main selling point is to do 3 damage per dragon breath to toxapex. Normal kingdra does only 2 so it’s much weaker against the strongest mon in the cup. Breakpoints are important for 1-turn moves.
@@powerfade11 the main thing mine does is loses the mirror incredibly hard, most other matchups you'd play out the same way
@@ItsAXN Ok, I'll give it a try. Thanks!
I`ve got an Rank 49 shadow kingdra. It Works great!
My only shadow kingdra is already made for the ultra league, back when empoleon double dragon was good.
@@pheesheggs4615 back in the good old days
yay, another toxapex showcase
How many content creators posted Kingdra videos today? I’m guessing I should just run 3x Kingdra counters with a Jumpluff lead.
I have a rank 69 shadow Kingdra. It's nice.
When itsaxn shows his Pokémon’s stats you know he never gonna use it in regionals 😂
Oh, is that why the stats are never shown? Keep it secret for competitions?
@ yeah, so that the top competitors don’t know which one wins cmp which one doesn’t
Man i hate morpeko so much. Terrible design
Just play Ufisk in the lead. You’re quite safe if any Morpeko shows up. In backline it’s sensible to be fine against Grass Pokémon (for example, I used a Shadow Alolan Marowak). Jumpluff might be a good third mon, since you want to cover mud bois as well.
