HISUIAN GOODRA just never FAINTS... • Pokemon Scarlet/Violet VGC Battles
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- In this video, I try out a team built around Hisuan Goodra, one of the bulkiest Pokemon in the format! It's supported by Light Clay Grimmsnarl, which can set up Light Screen and Reflect, as well as Rillaboom, which can set up Grassy Terrain and allow Goodra to heal up at the end of each turn. The team also utilizes Landorus-T to Intimidate opposing teams as well as Urshifu and Heatran for consistent damage. With such a bulky core, it's incredibly difficult to KO Goodra easily!

Addressing two common questions I've seen in the comments:
1) The nature on Showdown was just a typo, it's supposed to be Careful nature, not Calm.
2) People have been asking about Shelter vs. Acid Armor since they do the same thing. Shelter's lower PP can actually be beneficial in the scenario where you're up in an end game against an Encore user. With Acid Armor, you'll be locked into the move for longer, making it easier for your opponent to win off the timer, whereas with Shelter, you'll break out of the lock sooner. It's honestly such a small thing and think it won't come up in 99.9%+ of games but you never know!
I appreciate the explanation. I'd love to see more of these comments in future vids
As a not pro builder any place you could fir a knock off on the team, like just getting rid of pads is like killing urshifus or the mon with the pads.
Wish I could play a casual game without seeing lando
Another reason why shelter is better is because it's its signature move and looks better.

*SPOILER WARNING*
Some comments regarding specific turns in this episode!
Game 2: I thought Heavy Slam was a KO onto Chien Pao without the critical hit, which is why I opted for that over Body Press (Heavy Slam does chip damage into a potential Basculegion/Gholdengo switch-in while also covering for Ghost Tera on Chien Pao). However, I did the calc afterwards and the crit *was* necessary there (0 Atk Goodra-Hisui Heavy Slam (60 BP) vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Chien-Pao: 84-98 (53.8 - 62.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO). Thus, Body Press that turn was the more optimal play to guarantee the KO onto Chien Pao.
Game 3: I went for Aqua Jet + Heavy Slam onto Mimikyu rather than Surging Strikes + Heavy Slam because I was worried about a potential Life Orb Shadow Sneak onto the Urshifu slot. A lot of Mimikyu opt for max HP/Attack EV investment so I figured I could get the KO with the double up. I could've been in some trouble if it were Babiri Mimikyu or max HP/Defense Mimikyu but I thought both of those would be fairly unlikely.
As you can see, lots to think about with this team! I just wanted to add some color to those turns since I rewatched the games & realize I didn't talk about those decisions specifically very much.
How is this comment posted 1 day ago if the video just went up
@@27TheJose Because he already had the video uploaded, he just didn't publish it to the subscribers, it can also be set automatically to upload a video at one hour and he can comment
yeah, one thing to remember is that hisuian goodra isn't actually all that heavy. While heavy slam is generally the best second attack on goodra, it's not because it's actually *good*. You're very rarely getting 120 BP on it, unlike someone like Ting-Lu.
@@SheffiTBbut it is stab. I dont think you can fish iron head flinches as hgoo is mostly going to move later. But i dont know. Just some quick thoughts.
According to the Team Builder, the Goodra is Calm, so the damage would have been even lower
Very drippy fit, Aaron. Also I've been loving Reg D. Feels like the wild west and I've been loving seeing all the different strats popping up everywhere
HGoo has been the bane of my existence Season D!
This is why I always use flame orb Hariyama, as well as Tera ground gyarados
I taunt it
For me it was enamorus thundurus boosting the speed and sp attack
QOTD - It's a real breath of fresh air compared to reg C and team diversity is through the roof, even with all the prerelease testing people were doing on showdown. That being said, I still have a huge issue with Urshifu in particular. As a person who has played a pokemon with feint on it since launch, it's mind bending that a pokemon gets to do that for free with much stronger STAB moves while also singlehandedly invalidating screens, defense boosting moves, and stat drops like intimidate(unless you have shell armor of course). I'm hopeful that the format continues to be as varied as it currently is, playing against flutter chi-yu every game last reg became supremely uninteresting for me, but with the new prevalence of the chien-pao dnite ursh cores I'm worried we'll end up in the same boat as reg C.
Overall though I'm enjoying it a ton, and so many of the new tools introduced in reg D have made teambuilding a blast. This also feels like a relatively low pressure format for those of us aspiring competitors that aren't going to worlds and it's a great opportunity to diversify our skills and try new things. I've personally always been a tailroom player, but learning how to build and play balance has been really rewarding, and I can't wait to try out other team styles with all the new pokemon
Man that shirt is spectacular!!! Thank you for all the videos you’ve been providing us, this season start is wild :)
A shirt for unrestrained summer fun!
A note on Goodra's spread: it should probably be Careful (-SpAtk, +SpDef), and I'd go with 252/4/252/0/+/0 which is super optimal because even without investments you get the SpDef bump at 187, and that 1 extra point in Atk could always be useful!
Love this mon, it's just so cool :)
I hope to see a sneasler focused team too. I love this mon so much
I love using Goodra. For me it's always a debate deciding which Tera type to give it. I like Water Tera + Sap Sipper so it'll only have 1 weakness.
What item do you opt for?
Maybe with Lightning Rod it has no weaknesses
@@GadielVaStarLightning Rod is an ability
Thank you so much for showing off a Hisuian Goodra team. I haven't done competitive stuff since SWSH and wanted to get back into it and really wanted a Hisuian Goodra team since I love it so much. But I'm so bad at team building, I couldn't even get anything off the ground and thought it might be a lost cause. Im glad someone made a team tho cause i dont care if Im not the one who made it, i just want to use this lovable snail
Aaron saying Max Airstream instead of Tera Blast really took me back to swsh lol
I knew when you got beat by that Hisuan Goodra team that you would use a team featuring it! What an amazing Pokemon when used properly. Great video as always! Really like the daily uploads it's been my nightly ritual before bed this week haha.
in game 4, I think it's more likely the Urshifu had a Punching Glove than protective pads. It still prevents it from making contact, but it also boosts punch type moves by 10%, which Surging Strikes counts as.
You had me at Goodra + Grimmsnarl
I've been looking forward to your videos on regulation d from the moment I heard about the rule set. You deliver every time
I have been loving the content! It’s become part of my nightly routine 😂
Thanks for all the vids man!
I’m really loving this regulation and all the awesome content that’s coming from it, thank you 🙏🌸💕✨✌️
47:30 my favorite moment was clicking Fake Out + Max Airstream in the final game 😌
I’ve been running a team with Goodra-H paired with trick room. It’s quickly become a favorite Pokémon of mine. It’s the perfect late game Pokémon
Keep up the content rate! This has been awesome 👍
I enjoy the way you explain your thought process and decisions. And even during loses you explain what went wrong and what you could’ve done, a trait I need to learn 😂
hgoodra feels like a complete pokemon. the typing, the stats, abilities, move pool. makes duraludon look like a waffle toaster
I'm really enjoying these reg D videos. The new mons look like a lot of fun!
The regulation d vids have been so exciting to watch 🎉
I'm so sad they didn't bring that Cacturne... Trick room sweeper probably makes sense but... I don't think I've ever seen a Cacturne used in a competitive context before.
I cannot keep up with your Reg D output, your pace is blistering this week!
It is fun to see a mon that outlasts after a bunch of OHKO machines
Daily Cybertrong has honestly made my week. Loving the content!
Dripping so much content... Great stuff! 😃
I like how whenever one of Pokemon from Legends: Arceus emits it's cry in a VGC match, it makes me want to play that game.
i love that shirt - also thanks for the consistent great reg D content, can’t wait to see how you do at worlds
Congrats on 200k subs!
LET'S GOOOO I love Hoodra screens so MUCH! Got me good results on ladder, I don't know that it'll still be amazing by the time regionals resume but I'm hoping I can still bring a version to Toronto
Been loving your outfits lately! Entering your fashion killa era!
I love this team comp, I had a similar idea to run Goodra next to Rillaboom for that Fake Out/U-Turn goodness, but i chose to run Grassy Seed on Goodra for that instant +1. Rocky Helmet seems like it's the truth though, being able to chunk Urshifu like that is just beautiful
i've loved goodra for years and im so happy to se it finally triving
We're gonna need a 5 hour ladder grind video, can't get enough of this
My current team is running Goodra! This is awesome!
Love this channel!
Thanks cybertron your vids are very enjoyable light fun with some great strategy
Off topic, but I've been thinking about Scarf Gambit Ape. It is disruptive, killing important pokemon, but also, it instantly reduces the number of pokemon in the game to 3 on both sides.
This makes switching out harder, so it could have some potential uses in things like Perish Trap or even maybe something built around reducing opponents' stats.
I wish I could rock a shirt like that! Looking dripped out there Aaron!
I am loving Reg D. Hisuian pokemon are all new to competitive, and even the older mons seem fresh because of tera so it's been a lot of fun
Goodra is one my all time favorites I was hoping it would be viable
Salt cure helps a lot with those pesky snails 🙌
37:48 "thats a Cacturne!" exactly my reaction
This upload streak is the gift that keeps giving.
I love Regulation D! It's a very nice change to Regulation C. I wasn't the biggest fan of the Treasures of Ruin since they're all Dark-type, which like the Tapus made an entire type much less viable, so I've been enjoying their reduced popularity. More importantly, I love the rapid uploads!
Aaron's instincts are so good that when he called out the Scarf Final Gambit Annihilape, I knew he'd be right because I've seen him make similar calls throughout Road to Ranked so many times. Amazing vid as always, and I love to see Goodra getting some love! Never thought it'd be so good this format, I'll definitely be trying it out for myself.
Friggin’ love your shirt omg lol
Looking extra dashing today sir
0-2 against Hisuan Goodra I think that I've seen, glad to see it today!
QOTD: I reached Ultra Ball Tier today, while using your Ursaluna Cresselia Team and a Team centered around Hisui Arcanine. That was such a cool Moment.
Takin a min just to appreciate the quality and time that Cybertron has been setting aside just to upload such amazing teams and strategies for regulation D of S/V. Videos have been so good too! Keep it up Aaron
Love the shirt Aaron! Thank you for daily uploads :)
aaron the kind of guy to pat himself on the back after a hard days work
Hope you're doing ok, Aaron! Thanks for the content!
20:59 hey, he used my meme! So proud of The Hisuian Yrain going!
Reminds me of the shell armor fire Tuttle that you featured on the channel back in SWSH but way better 😂
Your memory is so good man !
I just can’t believe this brand new format is the format for worlds! I don’t think we’re ready for how wild these teams are going to be. I’d love to see something super creative take it home.
H Goodra is a mainstay of my team. Never considered Rocky Helmet over Leftovers but I want to try it out now
Currently taking a break from making my new team to farm money. Perfect timing for a new video
I'm loving reg D so far. Such a breath of fresh air after Reg C. I ended up getting quite bored of reg C in the end so much so that I didn't even watch the NAIC streams. I've been using one of my favs G-Zapdos to get into masterball and loving it. 🙌🏼
Thanks for the great consistent videos Cybertron!
QOTD: Tried team building for my first time in SV around h-zoroark. I came to conclusion that I didnt like zororark competitively
Also thank you so much for keeping up the good content, ever since the ban list format of gen 8 I've been inspired into teambuilding and vgc by your content, SV was fairly scary to tackle as teratypes are a much bigger wildcard than dynamax but you still inspired me to get back to showdown's bulider
QotD: its been a lot more fun than i thought it would be! i was afraid i wouldnt get to participate in this reg at all due to not having PLA, but i kinda bit the bullet and just genned in mons honestly. i know thats frowned upon sometimes, but i wanted to at least see if i enjoyed this reg at all, and im glad i did, bc i do enjoy it. im loving the amount of variety we have access to, even if the power lvl of mons is naturally a bit higher, we can use A LOT of stuff now, which i didnt think would happen, i thought it would be more strict, and maybe it will be, time will tell. anywho, thanks for the vids as always
Another cool team featured by the one and only Aaron Zheng!
Thanks Aaron
I did have a theory that shell armour would be viable with Urshifu running about. Glad to see the drippy boy doing things.
Rocky Helmet knocking out Population Bomb Maushold is the new and improved Gen 6 Ferrothorn with Rocky Helmet doing 50% passive damage to Mega Kangaskhan.
hyped to rent that
MY BOI, GOOBER! I remember back when Wolfey kinda dismissed him but he was wrong! Goober is an unkillable beast
Qotd: Loving it, some tilting stuff out there but fun. Ive been waiting ti use hisuian mons for a while. I thought reg D would just add the hisui though
That battle theme is good
This mans stay goated
19:52 yes, it might not be shell armour! Those first 4 surging strike hits didn’t crit. But you never know: The fourth Tera Blast might. I chuckled.
20:33 your screens did matter. Surging strikes ignores reflect usually because of the guaranteed crits, but with the shell armor you don’t get crit, so being a normal hit it is affected by reflect. Also your opponent fishing for a crit in that endgame is very funny because they already saw the surging strikes not crit the goodra, confirming the ability as shell armor, multiple times.
I think the biggest weakness of the team is taunt, which, thanks to tornadus, is very prevalent in the format, everytime I go up against a goodra team I just taunt and it completely disrupts de momentum of the opponent
I was the last battle in this video! That rocky helmet Goodra got me good, I had no answer for it once I left Armarouge on the bench
Lurantis shirt! Awesome.
Just worked on my hgoodra team for like a few hours and just saw this pop up it's a sign
QOTD: Really enjoying it so far. Been running a similar team to this and got to the 1600s on Showdown which is the highest I've ever been. Will-o-wisp (sorry Aaron) Dragapult is an amazing complimentary piece, adding up some residual burn damage and making Goodra even more of a nightmare to break
Does anyone know why at 44:07 Tera Blast is shown as "Super effective" even though it did not tera and normal is not effective against anything? Also the Tera-Type is Grass I believe, so even with that it would not be effective against Torqoal? Probably a bug?
35:17 happy pride to landorus!
I started watching this video while playing my own games on ladder, immediately ran into this exact team on ladder by coincidence and felt SO bad cuz my team is like complete anti-goodra by happenstance
QOTD: Solid 8/10. It doesn't feel nearly as centralizing as reg C but we will see.
Would love to see a video on Zoroark sometime soon.
I have a team that feels pretty good. Got to 1600 on showdown and Masterball tier on in-game ladder if you wanna try 👉🏻👈🏻
Thanks for all the awesome videos Aaron, keep up the great work.
“Oh but they click Encore, that’s a cute play…”
Aaron ‘Cybertron’ Zheng?? More like Aaron Savage Zheng.
This team is so fun to use
Hey Aaron! I doubt it comes into play, but is there a reason for picking Shelter over Acid Armor for Goodra? Shelter has fewer PP and no other benefits that I’m aware of, but I’m sure it doesn’t matter that much, right?
It's a very small reason but the advantage of having less PP is to break out of Encore locks sooner!
@@CybertronVGC That's super smart! I hadn't considered that! Thanks for the explanation ☺
I use it in ou with assault vest, gooey, and pair it with uxie for screens, I one shot most flying and non bulky dragons with ice beam, chilling water lowers the threat of switch ins.
5 uploads in 2 days?! You must be having fun with the new meta
That's why Hisuian Goodra is my favorite pokemon😻💜💜💜
Shell Armor was really a dangerous choice.
I had a HGoodra body press in front of my specs Gholdengo. Hit him with trick and locked him into press without being able to switch. Felt good lol
52:11 For a quick second, that Psychic Terrain would've protected Goodra from Taunt. But Rillaboom basically negated that possibility.
The fact that a Hisuian Goodra never faints is just sad. It keeps taking damage and being hurt and it never ends.
Now I feel even sadder seeing a Hisuian Goodra's sad face🥲
Wheeee new cybertron video! Bye bye sleep schedule!! 😂
My experience with the format has been pretty good so far, made it to master ball tier 4-0 with only paldea dex mons
Love the shirt dude
So far been enjoying Reg D more than Reg C, I think having a wider pool of pokemon to choose from is always a good thing. But we'll see how it goes later on when doubt the meta will centralise more.
That’s so cool
Ok advice for anyone going for a team like this ALWAYS max out body press and heavy slam PP I’ve had very close games where I’ve nearly had to forfeit because I didn’t max out there PP
