      As far as I’m aware, all of the topics he touches on here are still the same in S+V. Pokemon doesn’t change all that much between generations, usually. If anything did change, it would be specific things, such as Zacian’s ability being once per battle as opposed to on switch in like it used to be

    As someone who has done lectures before, can you make the font larger? Also I think it helps if you animate the text points to show up one by one. When there is a wall of text, no one really reads it.

      Your priority slides could be better shown in a table similar to the bulbepedia’s priority table. It makes it easier to see.
      Status slides, easier to see and how image or status. A newbie can associate it better.
      If you like help with your slides, I can help you out a lot there to make it more welcoming to new players.

    26 minutes in and I’ve learnt a ton.
    It’s true at the beginning of the video, not many people know about the competitive aspect.
    I’m a competitive person, I’ve just turned 20 and having played Pokemon since I was a child, I’ve only just heard about VGC a couple of days ago.
    Good luck to all the noobs out there! I’m one of them.

      Yes. Flying press is a joke. It's two of the most pointless types you could combine and the only notable interaction is 8x on dark/grass pokemon

    Just wanted to pop in and say that I think this was super well-done. Even though I've been playing singles on Showdown for a couple of years and don't plan on playing VGC, I found some yummy nuggets of information in here. Keep up the good work, and thanks for all you do for the Pokemon community!

    This lecture is more interesting than all the lectures I had to hear in school because the lectures focus on what I'm interested in, Pokemon. I've played Pokemon for 19 years, since I was 6. Out of all my years playing Pokemon games, I never knew Trick Room had a priority of -7. Thanks for the lecture, I wish class lectures would be this interesting.

    Excuse me professor Wolfey. You mentioned that you get circuit points for playing VGC. How many points do you get for each tournament win and do you only get points if you win or can you get points with a high enough points, as well as how much points for non 1st place top placings?
