    This used to be one of my go to Pokémon on stall teams during the netbattle days. Your videos are great and the nostalgia got me playing again. I’ve been put off by developments in recent gens and haven’t played serious since gen 5. Your content triggered me to play gen 3 OU again and it’s definitely the best gen in my mind. It definitely aged the best. Gen 5 was great because of all the meta shifts that happened due to new releases and DLC content, but I don’t think its replay value is as high compared to where gen 3 ended up.

    I played gen 3 OU very shortly a while ago and Imprison Dusclops was one of my innovations that I brought to games. However, I wasn't very good at team building for the meta, much less a balanced team, but I did catch a Weezing on the switch and locked it out of Shadow Ball and Wisp. That was one of my highlights.

    So why aren't shedinja and banette viable? They seem to be the odd ones out in gen 3.

      Banette does have a niche as the only Ghost that can threaten to KO Pursuit Tyranitar. Ghost/Fighting coverage is nice and Wisp and Taunt is also hard to switch in against. It is frail and easily KO'd though
      Shedinja just gets OHKO'd by Sand so its unviable

      @@jimothycool This is cool.
      I'm guessing there's probably some hyper specific team build from 2009 where someone got rid of ttar and then brought in shedinja specifically to fully counter some other niche backup win con they knew the opponent would bring that just so happens to not be able to kill shedinja when the game came down to the last 2 Mons. Trust me, in 5,87 months BKC will make a feature length documentary titled "Jerry McSwippy vs. hell0kitty_narutogod2217: the shedinja game" about this exact battle that definitely happened

    The immunity to Fighting is essential to Dusclops. Because of the low hp, Seismic Toss would do devastating damage if the Pokémon was any other type.
