Whoever convinced you to give us two pokemon this week and last, I thank them and the almighty FSG. Thank you so much. You guys are heroes in these trying times.
The Bellsprout line deserves a branched evolution like Oddish has. It just needs more love. Things could even get really interesting with a new ability.
If you look at the beta designs, weepingbell had a branch evolution but it was scrapped at the past minute. It looks like a talller bellsprout with a different shaped head.
EdmacZ Jessie:"go Arbok!" Arbok:"chaarrboka!" James:"weezing! Victreebel!" Weezing:"weezing wee!" Victreebel:"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAhHHHHHHh"! (Chomp) James:"not me! Go get them"! Jessie:"time to make yourself useful!" (Throws wobbuffet out of the balloon) Weezing:"weezing"! Arbok:"charbok"! Victreebel:"HYAAAAAAAAHHHH! Wobbuffet:"wobbuffet"!
Pfffft, what! How? My Pokémon using Grass moves eat Rhyperiors for breakfast at the Battle Tower all the time! How does a Victreebel lose to the first stage? XD
He also sent a Jolteon out against either the same Rhyhorn or his Rhydon He used an Electric attack on it Red went all the way to the final gym leader and never learned that Ground is immune to Electric until that moment
So, basically, like the flytrap it was, victreebel would mercilessly prey on the weak in whatever undergrowth it could take root in. Bit ironic how well it did in the sun, I thought carnivorous plants had to eat because they aren't good at the whole photosynthesis thing.
Fun fact! Victreebel is based on the pitchers plant called Nepenthes. Carnivine is based on the venus fly trap. Nepenthes are an Asian Vining carnivorous plant that can grow both in low light shade deep in the jungle and in high light, it just depends on the species. On your comment about carnivorous plants not being good at photosynthesis and thats why they adapted to eat bugs. That is simply not true, Carnivorous plants became carnivorous because their soil was lacking in nutrition, not due to lack of light. Carnivorous plants get their nutrition from eating bugs, but they still need to use photosynthesis to get energy from the sun.
If you turn upside down any image that has Victreebel’s mouth in view, it will either look really silly or even more menacing than right side up. Depends on who you ask.
I remember being a kid, and telling My bro the Best set for Victreebel was Double Team/ Ingrain/ Toxic/ Giga drain with Brightpowder, which could beat most of the Gyms in leaf green... Yep, i was a jerk even with NPCs
@@ExcalibeonSwordofEeveelutions Clearly they're trying to flex on enemies and sending the message that it doesn't matter if you can hit me if you do no damage
Every Pokemon that can learn Wrap can learn Toxic as well, because every Pokemon can learn Toxic for some reason. If you want to abuse this strategy just take Tentacruel.
Overrated, Toxic isn't that great in Gen 1 because it turns to regular poison when they switch, while also making them immune to sleep and paralysis, which are far worse to get hit with. It works on the AI because it's lacking in the "I" department, but there's tons of ways to plow through in-game anyway.
thought I was going crazy for a moment when I saw two uploads on the same day. Other than James' Victreebel, I honestly don't have much memory from this pokemon. Haven't finished watching the vid, but so far it seems pretty impressive in gen 1 from what was talked about. After watching the vid: Power creep, mechanic changes, and losing its bulk to special split were pretty bad roadblocks to it, but was still able find some interesting tools to utilize in almost every gen. I don't follow the competitive scene, but what could probably help out Victreebel would it to have its bulk be restored to how it was in gen 1 seeing how that has been a consistent issue with it post gen 1.
It's nice to see a pokemon find new niches despite dropping through the tiers. All pokemon deserve a shot at the spotlight *looks at Flareon* every one...
I love the stories of players who show up at a tournament with a weirdly non-meta pick and do well with it. Thanks for that segment, it was fun seeing how VIctreebel got its whiff of victory in the hands of a clever player.
I like seeing how much FSG has been able to look into lower tier Pokémon. I know there's a LOT of Pokémon still to discuss, but maybe some of the older ones can get a revisit for their lower tier viability, since many of them were dismissed if there were no OU strategies for them (like Blastoise). Maybe a compilation review video?
Great video as usual! I think it is also worth to notice that for a time even Weepinbell became viable in gen 6 PU after Victreebel got the ban hammer, but of course, it was a niche choice.
2 uploads in one day? Thanks FSG! Victreebel has become one of my favorites thanks to James’s Victreebel in the anime. Glad it saw some competitive use in VGC
Well if this isn't two videos in a day that is awesome false swipe keep up the good work you are the main reason I started competitive and it is really fun i gotta say.
Poison-types are awesome, tho. With all them faeries crawling around and slaying our dragons, the Poison and Steel types have risen in power. Now imagine... a Poison-Steel type! Oh yeah! Where is it!?
I honestly appreciate the subtle puns FSG says in the videos, the fact he doesn’t dwell on it makes it a lot more enjoyable...probably the first time I complimented puns lol 😂
Victeeibell has a special place in my heart since it was part of my blind SoulSilver nuzlocke, after claire riped my team to shreds the first time it came in clutch the second time totally destroying that stupid kingdra. Didn't do THAT much for the rest of the playthrough but everytime it came out leaf blade would oneshot something.
I love my competitive shiny Victreebel (named NotoriousBEL) because all its moves synergize well together. Chlorophyll + Weather Ball in Sunny Day can wreck a lot of pokemon
Victreebel was a pokemon I picked in Blue just because I needed a grass type to cover my Blastoise, it was easy to access with a leaf stone and I had nothing else in mind. It kicked more ass than I could ever have anticipated. I'll likely never use it again, but it has my respect.
I used to not care for Victreebell, but I've recently gained a soft spot for it. Its design is a *massive* improvement over its pre-evolutions, and it can be an absolute monster in-game if you use it right.
After watching this and seeing that rocly helmet was a popular item for victreebel in gen 7 i started to think how on earth victreebell wears it bc it would more than likely fall into its stomach if it put it on the leaf on its head. The only conclusion i could think of is if it either puts it on the part under it or it just glues it on there
I saw the title and immediately hoped he would mention VGC Victreebel I remember reading that article and feeling inspired to try giving competitive battling a try
Personally, I would have loved to see it get an alolan form that was a fire grass type which is actually super cool as it would only be weak to rock, flying, and poison types which may give it some better defensive potential, and it would give it a number of fire type attacks to benefit from such as fire blast, flame thrower, lava plume, and eruption. I'd say if this change happened it would be a monster under the sun with eruption hitting it like a truck when at full health also I'd make this version more defensive, and focus on its special attack rather at the cost of its normal attack
@@atteranenforcer5263 who knows maybe when we get 7th gen remakes we will see something like that though I imagine 7th gen remakes would come before 4th gen remakes which makes me disappointed
why are people not voting for bisharp? hes one of the few gen v pokemon that has been relevant in almost every vid since the begginning of the channel, if a Gen V pokemon has proven to deserve a video, it's him
I would like to mention that in gen 7 pu, victreebel also had the option of running poisinium z. Allowing it to win the 1v1 reliably vs opposing victreebel's. It probably shouldve been put on the list of items over lum berry. Air balloon was also a fine item if you already have a Z user, to surprise and therefore switch in better against mudsdale and torterra
Victreebel is not only the only OU Grass Type, but also the only OU Poison Type in Gen 1 competitive. Not counting niche Pokemon like Venasaur. Edit: I completely blanked Excegutor by accident as a grass type in OU. 😅
@@MorganKing95 Kinda. Yeah lol. Gengar wasn't that good in Gen 1 because of so many good psychic types (Exceggutor, Slowbro, Starmie, Jynx, and especially Alakazam, and even the niche Hypno.) and the fact that normal types, especially Tauros, usually had Earthquake to counter the poison type of Gengar. At least Victreebel is neutral to ground because of its part Grass type. 😂
@@articuno5527 Not that good? It was S- tier in 1997 and A tier in 1998 and is still OU in the Gen 1 Smogon format. Its Speed, Special, and access to Hypnosis makes it too valuable not to use, and it can easily bait an Earthquake or Psychic and switch into a wall. Not to mention that it itself can switch into a Normal-type move since Body Slam, Wrap, and Hyper Beam were so common
@@MorganKing95 True, but keep in mind that it has to compete with Jynx for a lead slot, who, despite its mediocre stars, has access to the more reliable Lovely Kiss. Hypnosis was about 60% accurate, with Lovely Kiss being about 75% accurate. Though granted, sleep accuracy alone does not a good Pokemon make. Just take a look at Parasect, for example.
Well done Victreebel, you've made James happy. You may not be OU, but you've nonetheless blasted off at the speed of light. So anyone facing you should surrender now or prepare to fight.
I've come to like victreebel quite a bit. Been considering it for various casual teams since it has so many options in later gens. Might use it in let's go. Now imagine vic flipped upside down, the placement of its eyes make it look like a longer floppier weepinnbell. If you ever thought it looked threatening, even in concept, its intimidation factor immediately evaporates.

why are people not voting for bisharp? hes one of the few gen v pokemon that has been relevant in almost every vid since the begginning of the channel, if a Gen V pokemon has proven to deserve a video, it's him
It's my favourite Pokemon too
Gee False Swipe Gaming! How come your mom let's you have TWO videos in a day?!
I would like to mention that in gen 7 pu, victreebel also had the option of running poisinium z. Allowing it to win the 1v1 reliably vs opposing victreebel's. It probably shouldve been put on the list of items over lum berry. Air balloon was also a fine item if you already have a Z user, to surprise and therefore switch in better against mudsdale and torterra
How GOOD were TWO uploads in one day ACTUALLY?
It's currently OU, but will likely be banned to Ubers soon.
Yes! I've been waiting for this one.
Thanks for doing victreebel even though he wasn’t the greatest it’s still is an amazing Pokémon I even cosplay as James being eaten by victreebel
leafhero Where can I see your cosplay??

Double upload today a good day
Yes
The P L A N T
Back you back uploads 2 weeks in a row? We have to give props to Kellen for puting more content than usual for us.
How good was 2 uploads in one day, ACTUALLY?
The 2 uploads felt in OU
*Gasp* two uploads in one day? You spoil us false...
Wait a sec.....
MORE UPLOADS THAN ONCE A WEEK?!?
I must be in a dream, and I want to stay in it
Not only that, but 2 in ONE DAY
@@SeannyyBGood we need to bust out Pokemon for future videos quickly
I was literally hoping there would be a Victreebell vid after I finished the Samurott vid! Definitely a good Sunday😁
Wait, what?
2 in one day?
I hadn't even finished the first one
Victreebel is not only the only OU Grass Type, but also the only OU Poison Type in Gen 1 competitive. Not counting niche Pokemon like Venasaur.
Edit: I completely blanked Excegutor by accident as a grass type in OU. 😅
Gengar: am I a joke to you?
@@MorganKing95 Kinda. Yeah lol.
Gengar wasn't that good in Gen 1 because of so many good psychic types (Exceggutor, Slowbro, Starmie, Jynx, and especially Alakazam, and even the niche Hypno.) and the fact that normal types, especially Tauros, usually had Earthquake to counter the poison type of Gengar. At least Victreebel is neutral to ground because of its part Grass type. 😂

Not that good? It was S- tier in 1997 and A tier in 1998 and is still OU in the Gen 1 Smogon format. Its Speed, Special, and access to Hypnosis makes it too valuable not to use, and it can easily bait an Earthquake or Psychic and switch into a wall. Not to mention that it itself can switch into a Normal-type move since Body Slam, Wrap, and Hyper Beam were so common
@@MorganKing95 True, but keep in mind that it has to compete with Jynx for a lead slot, who, despite its mediocre stars, has access to the more reliable Lovely Kiss. Hypnosis was about 60% accurate, with Lovely Kiss being about 75% accurate.
Though granted, sleep accuracy alone does not a good Pokemon make. Just take a look at Parasect, for example.
Wow. I didn't expect a Double Upload!
....welp. I can't put votes down, so I'll just say I thought Victreebel looked epic as a kid.
Well done Victreebel, you've made James happy. You may not be OU, but you've nonetheless blasted off at the speed of light. So anyone facing you should surrender now or prepare to fight.
Fun Fact: My brothers first ever shiny was a Weepinbell in Pokémon SoulSilver
I finally got one in lets go eevee.
Not a hard task to get one but I still liked it a lot.
@@sadarot same
Finished the dex in vee not long ago. 1st shiny was bellsprout.
We get two today?! Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Here before the vid gets deleted for accidentally doing 2 in one day
I've come to like victreebel quite a bit. Been considering it for various casual teams since it has so many options in later gens. Might use it in let's go. Now imagine vic flipped upside down, the placement of its eyes make it look like a longer floppier weepinnbell. If you ever thought it looked threatening, even in concept, its intimidation factor immediately evaporates.
*FSG uploads twice in one day*
His subs: Impossible
Man a double upload?! I'd shout for joy but Victreebel already has the screaming part covered.
