Hi, I’m x_bell! I post Pokémon and Super Smash Bros related content like fun facts, theory crafting, tips & tricks, VGC discussion, top tens, analysis videos, and more. New videos every Sunday, 10:00 AM EST. Thanks for coming!
I been asking myself lately how much the meta would change if they added one attack slot… since I am fairly new to pokemon thanks to pokerogue I would really appreciate an expert opinion in this doubt…
Could you do this same concept but for doubles battles? Cause ground types have been crying little beads of dirt begging for a move that doesn't hit its allies.
It’s a shame that Primape and Ursaring couldn’t get better with eviolite. Primeape wants Life Orb/Leftovers for Rage Fist, while Ursaring needs the flame orb for guts
chatot eviolite would be wild. you get to buff their bad defenses to better match their high hp, which would, given this theming, possibly be decreased in exhange for even higher offensive stats
I ran into 4 moveslot syndrome alot with accelgor and cradily cause they get so much utility moves that I struggle to fit something that actually deals damage in their moveset (i know they don't really see much vgc use but going off meta was a fun way to play untill paradox and UBs claimed the entire meta)
People really said X ability isn’t better than Y ability because Y ability is only on A Pokémon which is really bad, while X ability is on Pokémon like B, C, and D which are really good? The Pokémon the ability is on is counter for the Pokémon, not the ability
You didn't include Braixen or Delphox? Their stick "wands" aren't part of their bodies and serve basically the same way as the spoons of Kadabra and Alakazam
As a singles player... Wtf is friend guard? No but seriously great video, but I would appreciate a little box with the ability description when you mention one. Maybe some ppl dont know prankster or something.
Theres actually an interesting character in the Pokemon Special/Adventures manga (Sword&Shield arc) that is specialized in Pokémon weapons. Might want to look him up, his name is Sou, because Sword. Mega Sableye gains a huge Ruby if that counts. Also, Mantine is Dragapult before Dragapult. They uses Remoraid to shoot water guns. Galarian Slowbro have the Shellder hand cannon
2:36 85 + 30 isn’t 125. 85 + 10 isn’t 105. This is a small mistake and doesn’t impact the video but it still matters that it slipped through the cracks of your editing.
Here’s an idea for a LC Pokémon: Chikalucha (Hawlucha pre-evo) Just like its evolution, it is a Fighting/Flying type with Unburden, Mold Breaker, or Limber, and a very similar movepool. However, as it has to be LC-eligible, it has much lower stats. Stats: (total: 320) HP: 48 Attack: 62 Defense: 45 Sp. Atk: 44 Sp. Def: 43 Speed: 78 The idea behind Chikalucha is that it counters Knock Off, its Fighting-typing giving it a Dark resist, and Unburden doubling its Speed, so if it gets hit by Knock Off, it can proceed to sweep. How do you think it’ll do in Little Cup?
