Pokemon’s Best Designed Poison Type.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 апр 2024
- Pokemon Competitive Singles in Generation 3 has a long history. And throughout the years, Weezing has shown itself to be quite a consistent choice in Competitive.
While this Pokemon is not at the absolute Centre of the metagame, and is not ranked in OU, Weezing is a favourite among top players for its versatile options and unique defensive properties.

Some will never figure out how to get Weezing in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. But famous player Jim Cool is well aware of the Best Weezing Moveset in Competitive, and even how to Weezing Shiny Farm. Many aren't and never will be. That's just the unfortunate reality of the world.
Arceus exists.
The below text is very relevant to many people.
Game Freak just blew all other online game development schools out of the water with this incredible new 2022 release. You're gonna need to get a game design degree online, and FAST, if you want to make a better game than this. Not even the best strategy games android reddit could hold a candle to this breathtaking Next generation competitive Pokemon experience.
Scream Tail is the Jigglypuff of our wildest dreams. It has been buffed with some higher statistics and the incredible ability, Protosynthesis. Gen 9 Competitive Pokemon wouldn't be the same without this powerful pink blob. He kinda looks like someone I met in one of my game design and development courses.
Gen 9 Pokemon Showdown is one of the greatest online gaming sites in history. From Pikachu and Charizard, to Palafin and Roaring Moon, The new Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, have introduced a lot of new faces. Can I succeed in one of the best android games of all time? If so, I'm gonna get myself a Walmart bakery Pokemon cake to celebrate.
Gholdengo is a Pokemon made of pure gold. He must have done some online business management courses to accumulate all that wealth. Or perhaps he might want to learn how to make money playing video games on RUclips. In any case, he's a powerful metagame force, with absolutely no interest in online game development schools.

There is also Baxcalibur, which uses Will-o-Wisps to power itself up and does not exist in a world with Scald. Fling could definitely be used, however. Toucannon is also not a Paldean, Kitakamian, or Blueberry Academy Pokémon

I see there are some Jimothy fans in this thread that don't have the updated Calenders
I love everything about Weezing. Its a uniquely equipped defensive utility mon who’s design unexpectedly goes hard for how understated it is. From its stylized yet still recognizable skull and crossbones to how its shape as a naval mine pairs perfectly with its gas vents, ability to explode, and access to fire moves to how it works as an amazing personification of air pollution with it being reminiscent of cancer and tumorous growths, infusing its design with an air of menace and maturity. Just like its role as a competitive mon, Weezing as a design is efficient and perfectly suited depending on how far you’re willing to look. This is insane.
This is an excellent love letter to Weezing, thank you for describing it this way, you’ve put me on Weezing’s side.
Weezing is Smogon's dad, thats worth some respect
My opponent switches to Metagross to block my poison attacks and I am WEEZING 😂😂😂
Use will o wisp + fire blast for that one
Bruh I read the title as "Pokemon's best designed type" whilst also registering mono poison separately for Weezing and I thought I had landed on a truly hot take.
Unironically plays a really cool role in the romhack Garbage Green. It features, along with an overall weaker powerlevel for your team, long gauntlets, like having to go through all of cycling road without many healing items for example. Here, poison types are really interesting both as allies and opponents; they make the rare psychic type invaluable, force you to play around status, represent both physical and special walls in weezing and muk and sometimes threaten explosion!
For this reason, fittingly, Weezing is unironically a top tier pokemon in this hack.
Poison is in a real cool spot nowadays as this defensive monolith that likes to use poison to wear you down. It's not even that much of a slouch offensively thanks to Fairy-types and Poison moves have a good chance to poison
@@grunkleg.3110 I was doing a poison mono run of white 2 and was having lots of fun until something fucky happened and I lost the save. Underrated type for both fun and competitive use.
Mono poison is easily one of the most fun monotypes IMO. Especially in later gens
Poison is my favorite Type due to both its punkish edge and biological depth. Weezing's got both in spades, and Neutralizing Gas is one of my favorite Abilities to ever exist. I'm so happy they gave it to Kantonian Weezing!
Never heard my favorite type described so accurately before. Poison fandom unite!
1:20 why does muk looks like it's about to drop the hardest bar you've ever heard
well the muk did drop
@@gyrosandwich so mean
Weezing is my favorite poison type in the pokemon series and among my favorite pokemon of all time
Which might sound a little strange
Weezing seems pretty basic, and forgettable.
And in most Generations, it's not very good competitively either
Its a tie between Weezing & Arbok to me. Then you know who are my favorite characters 😂
But to me Weezing is the quintessential poison type
In some alternate reality Weezing got an evolution through King's Rock.
It's name is Hakking to complete the trifecta started with Koffing 🗿
It's actually tuesday for me, but I'll be sure to enjoy tomorrow.
Gameplay Jim and Game Analysis Jim feel like two different people
Your philosophy on viability is exactly my philosophy on it. Gamefreak needs to focus their energy on giving every Pokémon in the game unique traits and functions that give them all interesting roles that they can fill
Agreed, Gen 8 and Gen 9 proved that every Pokémon warrants some usage like Farigaraf, Annihilape, Garganacl and Gholdengo. They need to go back to older Pokémon like Golem, Starmie, Arbok, Sandslash and more. They should have something no other Pokémon have for them to stand out. Maybe giving Ledian and Ariados an evolution to give them hope in viability.
Ps. I think they should buff Ariados' signature Toxic Thread where it cause badly poison rather than regular poison and still maintain the speed drop.
It's kinda amazing that the decrease in psychic types, increase in value of fighting resists and introduction of fairies all combined to make poison an above average defensive typing at this point
My favorite part was when he said "it's Weezin' time" and weezed all over the opposing pokemon.
"Weezing Wednesday"

You're early, mate...
Clearly you have not consumed enough of the Jimothy Kool-Aid
@@crcker3841 I genuinely believed it was wednesday until I checked just now.
based Weezing enjoyer vs. cringe Eternatus try-hards
Thank you for posting the liturgical text for Weezing Wednesday. This is so helpful for those of us not near a physical place of worship on this special day 🙏
Nobody who plays against weezing for the first time realizes just how bulky it is. Levitate with the poison type with base 120 defense is shockingly hard to break. It doesn’t fit on every team, but it’s perpetually underrated and surprisingly hard to answer because of all its unique traits.
"But it's Tuesday, Patrick!"
Weezing is so powerful it [gave birth to] the namesake of the authority on competitive Singles itself.
This is insane.
[EDIT]
Technically that's koffing though
Weezing must be very proud of his son.
Every Weezing has it's Wednesday.
Releasing this on a Tuesday when you easily could have waited until Weezing Wednesday tomorrow is just another one of Jimothy Cool’s nefarious crimes
“I also think Weezing in generation 1 is underrated. It can come in on Tauros, and, explode. It’s like if Golem was even worse. And that’s pretty good.”
~Reverend
Enjoyed the analysis until the very end. Making a pokemon better through the generation gimmick is really interesting as its built of the foundations of the original. Tera water on avalugg doesn't strip it of being avalugg because no water type has avaluggs tools and stats same with the mega ledian example which you could've just mentioned mega beedrill. Mega evolution takes the base foundations of a pokemon and takes it in a whole new direction. Beedrill for example had good moves for sweeping with okay coverage but lacked the stats to fulfil the role leaving it as a dogwater toxic spikes setter. Mega beedrill recontextualised it into the ultimate glass cannon while keeping beedrill at its foundation. Making pokemon good by finding it's niche is more than fine but that doesn't mean the other way is lesser.
HP Poison Aeros being requested on stream 😂
for who 💀
I fell in love with Weezing for its competitive merits back in Pokemon XY. Gamefreak hosted an on cart double battles tourney called spooky cup around Halloween where only certain Halloween themed, or 'spooky' pokemon were allowed. I started looking at Weezing for the reasons you mentioned, I wanted a defensive mon with access to wisp and pain split (I was big into Rotom-Wash in OU back then, literally didn't know how to play without it on a team yet'. It surprised me at how well it filled that role and since then became my go to in any tier where it can serve that role.
Bros been playing so much Gen 3 he forgot Toxicroak exists
Weezing and its galarian form are two pokemon that I always enjoy using and try to find ways to make it viable, glad to see you make a video about it.
Weezing is the Pokémon to use Neutralizing Gas since Galarian Weezing has too many weaknesses.
Confused time traveling Australian posts Weezing Wednesday video on Tropius Tuesday
ive been dying for more weezing appreciation bro is so goddamn underrated
...how can I have a excellent Weezing Wednesday if its Tuesday?
I have a huge Arbok wrapped around a Weezing tattooed on my left side torso. This video makes me happy!
freddy fridge was a future paradox mon the whole time?? folks, this is insane.
Your point about Tera and "Mega Ledian" really hits. As more mons have been added more and more of them have been heuristically classified into the "x but worse" camp which is more of a death sentence for your competitive usage than being a weaker mon with a unique niche.
It's something I really appreciate having gotten into earlier Gen OUs.
That Fake Gameplay trainer seems to have the upper hand on that Rattock guy. He has a great future
Still mad we never got a volcano themed mega weezing considering how many fire moves it gets. The galarian form learns overheat for God's sake.
Such a great video, love the way you describe and dissected him
as an enjoyer of muk i respect the wheezing love he is a good honest fellow.
No wonder our boy James loved and cherished his Weezing so much and used him in battle daily. Long live Weezing!
i really like weezing's design because it fits one of my favourite design tropes: sad mutations.
i was also sold on it thematically when i saw it fire blast for the first time. it's so cool to imagine it igniting its gas.
Koffing has been my favorite Pokémon for over 10 years - happy to see her big sister get some much deserved appreciation! & if I was a gym leader, Weezing would be my ace, no question
wait wednesday?
watching this 14 hours after it was uploaded
it's 4:20pm HST for me
wtf how
When I first tried Gen 3 ou weezing was one of the first Pokémon I tried using, and since then I’ve always been a huge fan of it in the tier. Glad to see it get the appreciation it deserves
my best ever run with competative was in Gen VI when i was just casually playing with my favs, by the end i looked them up and saw my main story team all had major buffs and just took them to local tourneys, weezing was the last edition to my team around gym 5 and became my mainstay go to for tank, underrated gem for sure.
No way did i watch the video and at the end u say have a good weezing wednesday RIGHT as the clock turned 12:00 for Wednesday. This is insane
A Jimothy Cool upload, just in time for Weezing's wheezing wednesday.
Me when I am immune to Toxic and pose a significant threat with Fire Blast
Thanks Jim, love these vids
I wonder how much these unique niches were designed and how many are just happy accidents.
Was more impressive is this all without accounting for later generations where they got Neutralizing Gas, arguably one of the best abilities in the game too.
Weezing is such a respectable Pokemon. Aside from the incident where he detonated inside my home, they are men of class and good standing
Alolan Muk gang rise up!
Also Gabodor... and Toxicroak.
I have loved Weezing ever since I used it in a B2/W2 Nuzlocke in which I lost almost my entire team besides a Weezing in Victory Road, and I rebuilt my team around this Weezing who went on to single-handedly neutralize Iris's Haxorus with its high base defense, Will o Wisp, and Clear Smog
I like poison types, and Weezing was a big start of kicking off that love. In gen 6 or 7, I laddered OU quite a bit casually, and I usually did so as a "Poison Type Gym Leader" with monotype teams lol. Weezing my beloved.
Thank you Jimothy, very Cool!
Man jimothy is pumping out the content
An absolutely great way to start my Wednesday with Weezing
Great video 👍
weezing should get an evolved form named vaaping
Choking
Delayed watching this until a day late. Glad I did. Happy Weezing Wednesday everyone!
I have always loved poison types. Muk was on my first team to beat the Elite 4 in blue, and I've pretty much always used poison types on most of my in game teams. And when I hit smogon, I almost always play in the tier where Muk works best.
Muk is my iconic poison type. Literally sludge that was given life.
Very true i literally love this pokemon especially when it got neutralising gas and i use it in the current vgc meta with calyrex shadow rider and its amazing. Super bulky and Calyrex isnt affected by neutralising gas, it prevents sun and electric terrain and rain from the big legenaries, alongside mienshow with wide guard it can almost always get a burn or poison on kyorge/groudon. It also is super versatile and csn run taunt to shut down slower pokemon and oddly enough it has a rlly nice speed stat for a bulky pokemon. 10/10 pokemon not enough water
weezing is one of my favorite poison types ever its got such a versatile movepool its super cool
Weezing will always be peak Pokémon design, such a funny guy
I’d like to see you do videos like this for all the other types of
Bold of you to say right in front of Revavroom like that.
Love how you always add maplestory music in the background ❤️
"Worst thpe in the game" Bug would like to ha e a word with you
I used a Weezing named Minestrone in an emerald nuzlocke, and it carried me through the game
Thoughts on Alolan Muk?
Love it.
Gotta love Smogon's big brothers.
i clicked like because before i even came to this vid i was like "yeah, he clearly loves weezing"

DOGARS
As a longtime Weezing fan all this Jimothy Cool love for Weezing recently is very Pleezing indeed.
weezing is my favorite pokemon, cool to see it do well in gen 3
Crazy part is, if they boosted Weezings base special defense to 90, it would be a whole different ball game. Most of its psychic counters dont invest much special attack so it wouldnt be as damning to have it in against celebi or metagross.
Jimothy, Moxie, False Swipe and Woop 4 way randomizer nuzlocke collab when?
I love that outtro 😂
It’s Tuesday, Jim.
And who can forget Neutralizing Gas.
Given how much Jim praises Gengar's design and versatility, I imagine he just forgot Gengar was a poison type like everyone else did. Lol
I love weezing he has funny coverage moves
We are truly blessed this Weezing Wednesday.
Weezing's Wonderful Wednesday.
You know what they say: every smog has its smay.
Same! I love this guy, mainly for neutralizing gas
Weezing: I am the only pure poison type!!!!!
Arbok: am I a joke to you?!?!?
Muk and Weezing are my favourite pokemon 😢 ❤ happy to see them in their element
May I ask what game and what platform are you playing these Pokemon games on. Pls answer. Anyone. I always enjoy watching your videos and want to also dive into these pokemon games
Pokemon Showdown, which is a Battle simulator on Browsers
@@jimothycool ok.will play this.
@@jimothycool thank you sir. I will try your tips on playing these competitive battles. Love your work sir
I know this isn’t really the place to bring up newer Gens, but in Gen 7 UU, Muk-Alola is a beast. AV sets, in a gen where you can pursuit Latias/Ghosts like chandelure, or Knock Off utility with a Poison Touch chance while getting coverage in Fire Punch make it a demon on any team
We love weezing here on planet earth
I was replaying FireRed and actually caught a shiny koffing, he's super underrated
hey, what song is playing at 6:10?
weezing Wednesday all the way, nice video
Hey Jimothy, I'd like to get your opinion on Hisuyan Zoroark ? It's one of my favorite pokemon, both design and gameplay wise.
Weezings my favorite pokemon!
Have a great Weezing Wednesday.
When I did a physical oriented team in game, I learned exactly how bulky weezing really is. It's insane!
