The Viva la Vida comment was referencing Coldplay's song almost surely. The entire song is about a monarch who lost their kingdom and reflecting back on when they were the "king". Great reaction as always though, Patterz!
"I thought Zamazenta would be heavier" It is, Wolfey (or Wolfey's editor) showed the weigth of its regular form. The crowned form has a weight of 1730 lbs.
I would guess that Sword of Ruin doesn’t reduce Body Press’s damage because the ability lowers defence while Body Press is an ATTACK. Maybe Wo-Chien’s Tablets of Ruin would lower Body Press’s damage 🤔
@@bubby7474 this would indicate the way body press actually works is not by calculating damage with the defense stat but rarher by temporarily changing the attack stat value to be the same as the defense
22:20 oh yeah the thing with chien pao, the defense lowering ruin ability bearer is that it doesn't lower the damage of body press but increases it instead

22:39 while body press uses defense and defense stat changes to calculate damage, "invisible" def changes don't affect its damage (eviolite, sword of ruin, fluffy, etc). However, it is affected by "invisible" atk changes (tablets of ruin, choice band, photosynthesis/quark drive, etc)
How is that bad? It gains an extra type, yet keeps the same amount of weaknesses, plus gains Super Effective Damage against its new types Sole Immunity... Sure, a ×4 weakness to fighting isn't great, but otherwise its fine. Immune to, and super effective against ghosts, and only weak to Fighting, bug, and fairy? Still not bad. The BST however... not so good.
@@sukong1232 your point? I'm not saying It's a good pokemon Competitively... just that, as far as it stands, it's not Terrible. There are far worse type combos, and far, FAR worse pokemon than obstagoon... Even just in its own generation... Arctozolt, for example... or Falinks... or Morpeko...
Absolutely love it! I like listening to Wolfey speak, I like listening to Patterz speak... Now for the sake of balance, we just need a wideo of Wolfe reacting to a Patterz video
Bruh, there would have been such an easy fix to the ability problem: just make their abilities increase BOTH relevent stats. So, intrepid sword increases attack and special attack, and dauntless shield increases both defense and special defense. This buffs zamazenta while keeping zacian the same. If they did this, then nerfed both with the once per battle rule, zamazenta wouldve been even better. Come on, gamefreak hire me already
3:14 patterrz patterrz patterrz you just gained way more respect from me for the pure fact you mentioned this. Also dont worry he's technically the best competitively ...I think. Last I heard atleast.
Honestly switch their types that aren't steel & I see a case for both being equally used, the offensive one has a better defensive typing & the defensive one can't capitalize on the fighting type
I stand by the fact that behemoth bash should have had the body press property of using defense instead of attack. He’s *literally* attacking with a shield, and it would have been a lot more viable in SwSh
“whats wrong with having over 200 effective attack” I am pretty sure that it is more close to 300 attack due to how the stat is calculated, just how Azumarill doesn’thave only 100 attack but more like 160-ish Edit: also 170*1.5 is 255 and not 225
When Pokemon Scarlet & Violet were first shown, the disappointment was immeasurable. I think that's when it first hit many people that GF wasn't going to treat the IP like the massive franchise it is. People forget, these were the first ever home console mainline Pokemon games ever! We had dreamed for decades what a Pokemon game untethered from dinky handhelds could be, utilizing the full power of an HD home console, and finally getting all the bells & whistles of modern RPGs! Remember how many great RPGs came out for the 360/PS3 & how good they looked at the time? Switch was more powerful & much more feature complete than those systems! Going from a 3DS to Switch is like skipping 2 or 3 generations in hardware! So imagine how great Pokemon would look & play considering how much money the IP makes! Then they showed it off, and it barely looked any different than any other gen... There wasn't even any ambitious new gameplay elements or expanded scope, the graphics were outdated for even a Switch game, and they announced we'd get LESS Pokemon on top of it?! Oh but don't worry, the animations will be much improved with all that saved time not dedicated to adding all the Pokemon! Oops... they were just reused animations from the old games 😑 Talk about lowering the bar. The N64 textures & infamous tree were only icing on the cake. Forget 60 fps too, game couldn't even maintain 30. That's when we realized GF wasn't going to be doing this franchise justice anymore.
Wait. You telling me a defensive pokemon stopped sucking as soon as it got offensive utility? Wild. Shocked pikachu face. It's almost like defense is nice but offense wins games.
Funfact: According to the Japanese and chinese pokedex entry (idk bout the english one) Zacian is zamasentas Older sister. or is believed to be by Humans, and It makes sense in my eyes
The craziest part about the zamazenta nerfs is that when they nerfed regieleki's ability, they *didn't* nerf regidraco's
Zamazenta: I didn't get nerfed, I simply sold a small piece of myself for greater power.
I love that Cosmog technically counts as a restricted pokemon. Imagine someone just walking into a VGC tournament with a Cosmog
I can see it
ive seen Eviolite Cosmoem meme teams
@@AevitosTrath that sounds hilarious
I know of someone who went to Utrecht with a team that only had OHKO moves. Maybe we should ask them lmao.
The Viva la Vida comment was referencing Coldplay's song almost surely. The entire song is about a monarch who lost their kingdom and reflecting back on when they were the "king".
Great reaction as always though, Patterz!
Probably referring to a specific line in said song as well
“Be my mirror, my *sword* and *shield* …”
@@pavlox8099i thought it was about the ”i used to rule~, the world~” part
Zacian carries a sword.
Zamazenta IS the shield.
That's why I find him cooler than Zacian 😭
Patterzz: "Everyone likes swords more than shields so everyone got pokemon sword."
Me who bought the shield version because I like shields more 😭
a group of four is a quartet
"I thought Zamazenta would be heavier" It is, Wolfey (or Wolfey's editor) showed the weigth of its regular form. The crowned form has a weight of 1730 lbs.
"Breeding?! Breeding?! I've got videos to watch"
1:13 small mistake here, Zacian is actually Zamazenta's older sister
I would guess that Sword of Ruin doesn’t reduce Body Press’s damage because the ability lowers defence while Body Press is an ATTACK. Maybe Wo-Chien’s Tablets of Ruin would lower Body Press’s damage 🤔
Out of sheer curiosity, I checked this and you’re correct! Tablets of Ruin does reduce the damage Body Press (as does Zamazenta being burned!)
@@bubby7474 this would indicate the way body press actually works is not by calculating damage with the defense stat but rarher by temporarily changing the attack stat value to be the same as the defense
damn can't believe wo-chien can do something useful now
Petition to make patterrzz react to Tom critics video on the Ninjago timeline
I dont think the poketuber is gonna do that tbh but im still voting in favor
Yes

17:51 They didn't nerf calyrex. THEY BUFFED IT, GIVING HIM EXPANDING FORCE.
Insane lol why the hell did they do that
22:20 oh yeah the thing with chien pao, the defense lowering ruin ability bearer is that it doesn't lower the damage of body press but increases it instead
Patterrz’s grandma has grave defenses
Wolfey's Terra Incineroar jokes never get old lmao
Everyone loves a good underdog story. Pun intended.
Thank god zamazenta give justice he needed.
Wow! Hard to believe 2019 was 5 years ago.
Four members of something is a quartet, so it’s the creation quartet for palkia

Here I thought I was the only person who enjoys the supportive role of Aromatisse/Spritzee. Glad I'm not alone!

When I was in Venice I saw a seagull swoop down and steal someone's entire sandwich before they could even take a bite.
I love how the Sword Dog was literally the strongest Pokemon you could imagine... And was the second most used behind Incineroar.
32:30 - Yeah, Patterz, I'm just as blown away, as you. Impressive span, especially after he became the World Champion.
Imagine if zamazenta's signature moved actually used it's defence stat
"Obstagoon can't be that bad" Normal/Dark my guy... Normal/dark...
How is that bad? It gains an extra type, yet keeps the same amount of weaknesses, plus gains Super Effective Damage against its new types Sole Immunity...
Sure, a ×4 weakness to fighting isn't great, but otherwise its fine. Immune to, and super effective against ghosts, and only weak to Fighting, bug, and fairy? Still not bad.

Pat looks extra warm and tender in this video for some reason
crowned zamazenta weighs over 1700 pounds btw
Yeah. Crowned/ normal =huge weight difference
I’m so glad my favorite dog is finally good
Love the vids man
“It isn’t possible to only nerf one because they are paired legendaries”
Explain Regidrago then
I feel like gamefreak in gen 8 hated zamazenta
Not a boxart. There's your explanation
"You can nerf one without nerfing the other."
**Regieleki wants to know your location**
19:27 yeah bulky and somewhat fast to outspeed a thing or two and the moveset was body press, heavy slam, iron defense and protect/wide guard.
As one of the 5 people who bought Pokémon Shield instead of Sword, I'm really happy to see my boi doing well
Absolutely love it! I like listening to Wolfey speak, I like listening to Patterz speak... Now for the sake of balance, we just need a wideo of Wolfe reacting to a Patterz video
"people didnt enjoy slop theyre bad people"
Bro had a rising of the shield hero arc. Lol
Shout-out to Alfonzo, loving Zamazenta before it was cool!
I like shields more than swords, Zamazenta is my boy :]
It would actually be super cool to see you try a bit of competitive tho!
New camera or lighting?
Remember, the Treasure of Ruins’ abilities don’t affect themselves. You’d need to have put Sword of Ruin on the Zamazenta herself.
Drink everytime Patterrz pause the video
Great vid
I remember being that one guy who got shield

Love your content ❤❤❤
Pat, Chien-Peo defence drop doesn’t matter when it’s easy to use a 4x super effective stab move that use a monstrous defence stat.
omg im in a Patterz X Wolfey reaction video lets gooo
Zacian and zamazenta are the asta and yuno of pokemon 😂
Correction HE got a nerf and THEN got a HUGE BUFF
Too be fair Tera Ghost Incineroar is actually a very common Tera type
Before I played those games I thought zamazenta looked way cooler, but was disappointed to find out he stunk 😭
There should be a special attack equivalent to intimidate
3:14 patterrz patterrz patterrz you just gained way more respect from me for the pure fact you mentioned this. Also dont worry he's technically the best competitively ...I think. Last I heard atleast.
Honestly switch their types that aren't steel & I see a case for both being equally used, the offensive one has a better defensive typing & the defensive one can't capitalize on the fighting type
24:35 oh don't underestimate zama's special bulk, it's almost the same as kyogre's special bulk
All hail lord zamazenta
I stand by the fact that behemoth bash should have had the body press property of using defense instead of attack. He’s *literally* attacking with a shield, and it would have been a lot more viable in SwSh
Oh lol patterz says that later. TBF I left that comment on the original wolfey video months ago
I’m using Palkia as my restricted
If Behemoth Bash uses defense instead of attack then Zamazenta might be broken tbh😅.
“whats wrong with having over 200 effective attack”
I am pretty sure that it is more close to 300 attack due to how the stat is calculated, just how Azumarill doesn’thave only 100 attack but more like 160-ish

Quartet. It's a quartet
Hey pat i have had a question for a long time what is subnoodle based off and what is your favorite legendary who IS NOT arcanine
Quartet as In barbershop. 3:16
17:19 👌
Like for Patterrz to react to Elden ring lore
I feel like dauntless shield should've rose both defense stats.
Has Pat reacted to Terminal Montages Paradox Pokemon video?
he showed normal and not crowned form for weight
I love wolfey
You should react to his euic video it’s 2 hours long but it’s the greatest Pokémon video ever made
Need restrict everyone except that 1 dude from using body press thats legit his pokemon

Palkia is decent btw
And it's called quartet
quartet...
love pat to react to scarlet and violet the musical...done by juno songs (also yes this just the name I call lol)
When are you reacting to cam steady new pokemon type rap
Wait. You telling me a defensive pokemon stopped sucking as soon as it got offensive utility? Wild. Shocked pikachu face. It's almost like defense is nice but offense wins games.
