The fact you took Trace, one of the most complex yet potentially powerful moves in the game, and made a montage of it showing all the different ways Trace can be used, means you're absolutely one of the strongest trainers I've seen.
It seriously blows my goddamn mind when people say "that didn't count because it's not a set". it's like having a security camera pointed at every door, and when a burglar comes in the window you go "they didn't steal from us because that's not an entrance"
GalaticCyrus next level weather wars is in doubles. Fun fact role play bypasses protect. So you can have say hitmontop use roleplay on your normal Obamasnow while it used protect to keep hail up then mega.
"That's not a set" is the dumbest phrase ever, and it embodies the mindset that plagues many competitive communities, not just Pokemon. If all you want to do is copy paste meta teams and follow a flow chart, why are you even playing? How do you genuinely believe that a person is bad at the game because they used their creativity and ingenuity to beat your robotic mindless button-clicking? I'll never understand. Cool sets, dude.
Whenever I see stuff like that, I'm reminded of the Korean Pachirisu dude who took a whole Championship because nobody had a counter for his godly electric squirrel.

The harvest set was one of the best sets I've ever seen. Weedle I always love how you break the meta with creative sets and memes. One of the best if not the best poketuber in my book.
Himalayan Duck he used toxic orb or flame orb plus a low level sturdy skarmory with fly or low level sturdy dig geodude. Then copycat prankster riolu. Copycats the fly or dig and the first turn has a priority of plus one. The second turn is just normal fly or dig though so he has a 0 priority. This can be beaten with moves that can hit digging foes/ flying foes moves with negative priority ( to hit the second turn or if it isn’t a negative priority attack but a negative priority status like trick room it will stop the digs and or fly so you can just beat it normally then ) or moves with positive priority to hit the first turn
I had to look up what Simple did. If you have simple, your stat changes are increased/decreased by double what it normally would. So a tail whip will decrease your defense by 2 instead of the normal 1. This is such a creative use of it.

One guy was real pissy when I used Trick to force my Fan Rotom's Ring Target (item that removes holder's type-based immunities) onto their Gligar. Despite winning that battle I was somehow the worst player of all time. I dunno how that's supposed to work out.
I may have stopped playing Pokemon in competetive, but watching you and Visually always bring joy to my heart. Also that one player, who wasn't toxic towards you at all. We need more of these honest gentlemen.
I've got to say, I've only recently found your channel and watch your showdown videos but I am absolutely in awe about your creativity and knowledge of everything. Being able to use useless moves like simple beam and completely transform teams around abilities and minuscule scenarios is amazing beyond belief. I am completely gobsmacked about how smart you are. I can't wait to watch more videos. Also the editing is amazing!!!
Because original, effective strategies aren't sets. They can't look them up, so they aren't legitimate. Originality is frowned on in Smogon, ESPECIALLY when it works.
I am just imagining gardevoir putting barriers up while the green little dude keeps eating stuff that he brought with him, and then after noticing that he is doing good gardevoir just sends out waves of magic.
With how all of your sound edits seem to be consistent for certain moves I wonder do you ever have trouble remembering exactly which sound effect you always use for certain moves like the little cascade sound effect that you use for stealth rock that just seems like a little tiny thing that might be annoying during editing but you do a good job keeping everything so consistent
That poison heal and speed boost moves were so well played!! I love your videos!! The combination of your narration and the brilliantly selected music is so perfect!!
guy: follows smogon sets also guy: expects everyone he plays against to also follow smogon sets, gets upset when he can't predict what his opponent runs when he finds out they don't
When kids embarrass themselves on Pokémon Showdown, instant facepalm! xD Why use racist slurs when you barely even know your opponent? Next time kid, know your enemies and you know yourself.
the rage make them mistaken, cause they loose their mind, however that water shuriken was a treath, wonder what would had happen if it work, and hitted 4 times.
It’s incredible how this person can take these sets that are seen as trash and dominate the current meta and isn’t a dick about it I’m in love with this channel

Salty OU Players: tHaTs nOt a SeT 😭🤯😵
Some dude got salty when I used a toxicroak back in gen 6. People get upset over the smallest things.
@@TrueHavoc13 now people get strangely upset when I dynamax my slaking in doubles alongside my neutralizing gas toxapex. Some people are WAYYYYY too salty and should be banned 🙃
missingno miner oh shit good idea
@@Missingno_Miner neutralising gas... Toxapex? I think you mean weezing.
One guy was real pissy when I used Trick to force my Fan Rotom's Ring Target (item that removes holder's type-based immunities) onto their Gligar. Despite winning that battle I was somehow the worst player of all time. I dunno how that's supposed to work out.
Love how the simple beam was able to double the reduction of their stats the same turn
I may have stopped playing Pokemon in competetive, but watching you and Visually always bring joy to my heart.
Also that one player, who wasn't toxic towards you at all.
We need more of these honest gentlemen.
ThanatosZero we do, but dont assume genders.
“Good game”- report that player that kind of language is against the smogon rules.
Never before has a “kiss kiss” viciously ripped “fall in love” from my mouth
I love the sound effects you add to your videos, makes them a lot more enjoyable than just straight up game play
Ikr
legomaster05 youre my hero for being a good sport even in the face of such a cheesy strategy, its what i hope id be if i played showdown more
I've got to say, I've only recently found your channel and watch your showdown videos but I am absolutely in awe about your creativity and knowledge of everything. Being able to use useless moves like simple beam and completely transform teams around abilities and minuscule scenarios is amazing beyond belief. I am completely gobsmacked about how smart you are. I can't wait to watch more videos.
Also the editing is amazing!!!
The harvest set literally just blew my mind
The Return of "BRAVE BIRD! IS GOING DOWN!!!!" has me so happy~
"R/woosh" of course the "not a set" guy is a redditor
what did you expect honestly, wouldn't be surprised if he worships pewdiepie
I found the same exact team (even the Pokemon names) on r/stunfisk the other day.
@@lookitsabstract3692 not epic dude I'm a fan of pewds and I'm not toxic
He spelled it with a capital R and two o's so he's not even a real redditor
@@majickman imagine being so sad you have to fake being a redditor lmao
Oh yeah daddy weedle you know I love when you trace me like that
Draw me like one of you french incineroars
Wtf are you smoking bruh
My favourite use was poison heal when there was toxic spikes up
That was onixpected
@@xyzzy-dv6te Can i sue you for making that joke?
Mad respect for the Persona 3 “During the Test” music choice.
just the classic showdown experience
"That's not a set"
How can you say this when you lose to it? Like...
Because original, effective strategies aren't sets. They can't look them up, so they aren't legitimate. Originality is frowned on in Smogon, ESPECIALLY when it works.
People act like you have to use Smogon Sets, you don't, they're recommended
I am just imagining gardevoir putting barriers up while the green little dude keeps eating stuff that he brought with him, and then after noticing that he is doing good gardevoir just sends out waves of magic.
"How many non-standard sets are you running?"
"You know what I'm gonna say."
Yes
"gg nice choke"
"n a h"
and that run soundclip when he left killed me
JVGreen150 I thought your profile picture was Slaking as Shrek.
With how all of your sound edits seem to be consistent for certain moves I wonder do you ever have trouble remembering exactly which sound effect you always use for certain moves like the little cascade sound effect that you use for stealth rock that just seems like a little tiny thing that might be annoying during editing but you do a good job keeping everything so consistent
My autism let's me remember everything
@@WeedleTwineedle mood
You madman. You've discovered the secret to unlimited power.
That poison heal and speed boost moves were so well played!!
I love your videos!! The combination of your narration and the brilliantly selected music is so perfect!!
guy: follows smogon sets
also guy: expects everyone he plays against to also follow smogon sets, gets upset when he can't predict what his opponent runs when he finds out they don't
What a normie that kid was for not thinking outside the box. Must be American, born and raised.
That why I stop play battles, ppl can be very toxic, but thanks to that I start my breeding and shiny hunting
i laughed so hard in the part of dora's backpack YUM YUM YUM DELICIOSO
Ow!
Miguel PxFxHx Same.
@@Nonsaiilmionome I see you're a man of culture as well
Delving down in the comments, i finally found this comment.
Have a like, homie
Douglinhas 2.0 My thoughts exactly.
Speed boost. The most fair and balanced ability ever given out in pokemon. There's absolutely nothing wrong with speed boost.
Until Blaziken gets it
Did a reversal sweep torchic against ubers once with it
@@mahranislam3554 wait... A TORCHIC?
@@MisterSleep1123 Yeah why are you so surprised
@@MisterSleep1123 *laughs in little cup*
That Harvest combo was totally my jam. Really nice.
I'm starting to have fetishistic fantasies where I insult your strats in public and then you proceed to humiliate me in front of everyone.
...why can I relate to this...
...what?
ok brent
@@B0K0691 don't get Too steamy, youtube can't handle it
The fuck are you talking about? This is a normal response.
This video is a masterpiece, some S tier content
'How can a black man be racist?'
Same way a white man or an Asian man or a Mexican man or literally anyone can be racist.
yep
The irony is that it's a racist statement in it's own right.
When kids embarrass themselves on Pokémon Showdown, instant facepalm! xD
Why use racist slurs when you barely even know your opponent?
Next time kid, know your enemies and you know yourself.
That guy who says it's an actually cool strat is a legend
I love how the first guy says "idot"
Idot
I love when people say gg, then get beat
Shut fuck idot
the rage make them mistaken, cause they loose their mind, however that water shuriken was a treath, wonder what would had happen if it work, and hitted 4 times.
Can we get a round of applause for legomaster05 for being such a legend
you really have to start writing your playlists in your description. it kills me not remembering the track names
That improvised Unburden Trace on the Tapu Lucha was just masterful. Glad to see a cool video on one of my favorite mons!
Nice OG Mario Party sound effects and DK map audio at 6:55
2:49 *oH yEaH i ReDdIt bRo*
This is why i dive on 4chan
Real big wholesome 100 Keanu chunges thiccness 100 moment right there
The best part is the he spelled it by using a capital R.
Yo bro memes funny wholesome 100p chungus reevs
Omg that starf berry sweep is fire, ive never even seen it in any match ive had
Regular people: *normal coffin*
Rich people: *normal coffin*
legomaster05: *GOLD COFFIN*
6:54 the music with the monkey sounds was perfect for this
Love ur content, keep up the good work. Hopefully you enjoy your birthday to the fullest extent
These Super Mario RPG sound effects make my heart so happy.
Using Volt Switch on Trace/Lightning Rod Gardevoir is exactly the kind of play I would make. Fantastic vid.
My god... that is an amazing set !!! Always so palatable with those queens references
The sound effects are everything in these montages
Missed both of the codes AND the content EZ Clap
9:04 where on earth is that chocobo theme from, I love it.
Judah Rininger final fantasy ix
Gilgamesh Rulez thanks, I actually have that for PlayStation 2 but never got around to beating it.
Holy Jesus
"BIG OOF"
"R/whoosh"
That redditor deserved the L.
whoosh
He wasn't a redditor. It's /r/woooosh. He's all phony all the way through.
@@MeruXYZ ew
@@lennoxsommerville7451 I know. What a gross man.
@@MeruXYZ yeah you kinda nasty I agree
“Faith in showdown restored” hahahahha
4x atk linoone with Stab extremespeed is still not enough to oKO Landorous ... Damn those legendary sky gods
linoone got liek wut, 35 base attek or sumsheit brauh? nah jaekae brauh it's 70 wOaHh DoOoD-.
Therian Landorus is such an incredibly balanced Pokémon, right?
@@gengarzilla1685 and now it's back in the game they removed it from because Balance™
missingno miner Yet they made Zacian which is another fair and balanced Pokémon
@@dddmemaybe 70 base attack actually. Granted, it's not that much, but when it's belly drummed, you gotta question why do you not OHKO base Landorus-T
It’s incredible how this person can take these sets that are seen as trash and dominate the current meta and isn’t a dick about it I’m in love with this channel
"but youtube gave me demonetization for my birthday", this made me cry
I'm salty from just watching it. But also impressed. Always love to see a good gimmicky set triumph. GG to you sir
When u realise the guy in first battle was tryna sound like he knows stuff
8:00 (Gardevoir lost 68.9% of it's health)
So close...
You could say it was almost nice
The "69?" woman almost showed herself.
You inspire me so much Weedle with your innovative/interesting strategies. Happy belated birthday!
Man that OU Lobby chat is just about as bleach inducing as Region Chat in Warframe.
Recently subbed, happy birthday. I don't even care for the codes, I'm just so glad you put out a video like this, keep them coming b0ss.
