Iron Mugulis has been turned into a mere Emote. This is insane. Become a Member to humiliate Iron Mugulis even further. He's so small, everybody point and laugh.
Honestly been wondering how you only have 42K subscribers. Your content is so informative and just fun to listen to. Like Big Yellow did to Gen 1, your videos have been making me want to play Gen 3
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.
Gen 9 ubers, ou, uu and nat dex ubers and ou are my favorites since they have most of my new favorites but gen 3 ou will always be the most fun to play for me. Firered and emerald were my favorites as a kid and even my in game emerald team i beat the e4 with was somewhat viable. Ttar, dusclops, forretress, swampert, metagross and suicune (obviously did some trading)
Only small bit of potential I can see is on a superman (4+ flyers/levitate to ignore spikes) that ALSO plays around sun with Moltres or something. (Tropius has chlorophyll). Those teams are usually weak to ice coverage though. It's probably not very good.
As a beginner to Gen 3 OU who has recently fell in love with it thanks to this channel, I'd love to experience some epic Dusclops gameplay. Does anybody by any chance have the team that was showcased in 7:00? I'd love to try it out on the ladder
www.smogon.com/forums/threads/set-dump-team-dump-and-previously-general-metagame-discussion.3648620/page-5#post-9218724 Here's ABR's post with the teams and explanations / example replays
Back when I played gen 3 OU as the modern gen, this thing was everywhere. It's crazy to see how much opinion has changed on it, and cool to see it being reinvented for modern play.
Shadow ball, focus punch/seismic toss, substitute, curse with leftovers. I don’t play comp but i use something similar in battle frontier. Dusclopse is one of my favorites so it’s nice to see him getting some love (:
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.
@@mastervolg8768 Don't put too much stock in that. There are a lot of mons that are potentially viable but have received little attention and experimentation. But I will say building in this tier is very difficult, even with years of experience playing it, so if you haven't had success yet that doesn't necessarily mean it's impossible and you never will. Sableye is a great example of a mon that would not have been ranked even just a year ago. Now it would be an oversight not to have it on a VR.
I used to run a Dusclops in Gen 6 doubles paired with slaking and doing skill swap shenanigans. You should have seen my buddy’s face when I took prankster off his sableye, gave it truant, and proceeded to priority will o wisp his whole team
Though I don't do competitive, I used Gengar/Dusclops/Shedinja in battle frontier and it was quite fun. I ran curse/will-o-wisp/rest/protect with them to stall some mons that'd kill my other two.
Fun story, I once beat an OU pro with basically a team of pokemon I liked using. I have never heard someone scream so loud when Dusknoir (my favorite pokemon) crit a Lando T with Ice Punch and killed it. Man legit tried to rip me to pieces, because I beat the king of OU, with a Dusknoir.
So there's been on tier 3 patron added since the last video, and the end screen has become magnificent. Maybe Jimothy just really likes Jolteon? Back to the theory factory...
I don't know if I was the Austin being thanked, but I thank you for the thanks. I truly enjoy your content. Soon I'll have my first Gen 3 team ready to try.
Bruh each time you bring up poltchageist, it just gets funnier lmfao. All jokes aside tho, I think it's gonna be really useful and fun to use in doubles since its ability, hospitality, allows it to be an assist leftovers for your partner pokemon
So i had a dusclops with no direct attacking moves and paired it with a meganium that also had no direct attacking moves. Only leach seed for meganium and willo wisp, confuse ray, pain split for dusclops.
@@yourdagan it would obviously be stronger than Dusclops who has a niche, but would still be worse than Gengar who would still be the primary ghost type in the tier. Dusknoir would fit better on some teams though and would see some use, which would cause players to consider it when teambuilding, even if it would end up being a B tier mon.
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

I loved Dusclops in ADV Doubles OU, where you can use it with Imprison/Protect to stop people Protecting against your first turn Boom
That's a good one.
Would be ineffective against the (apparently) most common lead of Metagross + Gengar.
That does sound funny as fuck
@@yourdaganmy immediate thought is that Metagross would boom, wouldn’t it?

Honestly, I just want to see more Gen 3 OU videos. It's really neat how many Pokemon work if you know what to do.
I've run Calm Mind, Will-o-wisp, Rest, and special attack for like 5 generations straight with this guy lol.
Bruh
Pain Split is one of those moves that I never noticed till gen 4 and then literally just looked up was a gen 2 move
Mostly because it was only learned by Misdreavus and anything that could breed with it... wasn't until gen 4 hgss it had a move tutor

Fellow Big Yellow enjoyer, I salute you. Although I think I enjoy Jimothy more, as gen3 was my starting place in Pokémon.
Honestly my favorite ghost is Dusclops he’s just so adorable (yes i know that sounds weird and I don’t know how to explain it lol)
I can see it. He gives funny little old man vibes.
Based
Hes just a little guy!
All this hubbub over dusclops, but let's not forget that duskull is capable of fully countering articuno, zapdos, and jirachi all at the same time.
The Realm of Alternative Ghost Types is a pathway to many Pokémon some consider to be unnatural.
Dusclops: I am the spinblocker!
Tyranitar: Not. Yet.
Gengar: "it's treason then"
Come on Jim, drop the Banette video you damn coward
shoutouts to Austin
Thanks, Austin.
I love the weirder choices for spin blockers. Being so hazard weak makes it so much harder to justify though..
I prefer misdreavus and gengar as spinblockers
If only landrous was in gen three then duclops could hard counter it with ice punch
You forgot about the crit!
Well, gengy with the immunity and speed would do that far far better

got me wanting to get into gen 3 OU mr jim
Wow, that’s the bulkiest ghost type in Gen 3 that I’ve ever seen
This is insane
Its really cool how pokemon like claydol and dusclops have a great use in gen 3 considering how they're not seen in future generations very often.
shoutout to Austin and J R
love the huge variety in sets. I imagine with a good spinner it can do quite well.

You should make a video on Medicham, I've been using it a bunch and it's such a scary pokemon, two shotting skarm if it's banded

Don't think Tropius works, but apparently Wailord's seen use in Gen 3 OU.

Loving this Gen 3 content. Emerald is my favourite, and I am considering hopping on the OU ladder now. Thanks!

I love how Jimothy is running a protection racket and everyone is going along with it.
Dusclops is my favorite Pokémon. I’m so glad it’s had a niche outside of vgc, because it’s really struggled since gen 3
Loved the ‘Clops in my Sapphire Run. What a tanky Boi. Let’s see you get through him with your Metagross Steven.

Man, ADV is really cool, there are a lot of mons with cool niches and uses. I just wish Ursaring had one...
It does. Agility Pass recipient to sweep or Blissey switch-in to wallbreak.

It works really good against Blissey if you was cursed bringing you you down to half HP and then you paint split then you are restored the full
Ok, now I wanna learn all about Gen3 OU, just to find a way to make Banette useful xD

That one curse dusclops duskull set was insane
The mad lad actually shouted out Austin
I see that man from the stream got his request lol
Emote to demoralize Iron Mugulis
Now do one on the sad existence of Dusknoir.

Yeah I specially love Ice punch dusclops, I thing everyone should try It in fact.

It does but that's secret Jimothy tech.
Greeting from the UK Mr Cool. We got a Bank Holiday today, you got one where you live?
take a shot whenever he says dusclops
But the battle's not over, Dusclops, will o wisp!
A yes, the OU Staple Dusclops/Banette/Misdreavus Ghost trio that terrorizes the meta.
Have you done a video about the hypothetical scenario in which the physical special split exists in Gen 3? That would be a hell of a thing to see!
Bruh each time you bring up poltchageist, it just gets funnier lmfao. All jokes aside tho, I think it's gonna be really useful and fun to use in doubles since its ability, hospitality, allows it to be an assist leftovers for your partner pokemon
I versed a Dusclops recently and yeah it was pretty hard to take down. And it had Focus Punch too! 0_o.

I wish we had ADV Dusknoir. Woulda shaken up the metagame some I think while also not being a mainstay.

Can you explain why are there so many uubl pokemon in gen 3?
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
