How Strong Are Brendan and May as Rivals?  

“Raichu with Static and Thunder Wave good luck getting past that without getting paralyzed” Ground Type with Earthquake: “You underestimated my power”

My primal groudon didn't give a flying fuck about that static raichu💀💀

glad that this channel is growing so hard. 100k at the end of the year definitely.

After dealing with Steven and his Mega Metagross one battle earlier, my team never broke a sweat against these kids

Well as i just completed a only flying type nuzloke in alpha sapphire yesterday... I agree to this

You know how I got through the static Raichu with thunderwave? I used a pokémon with lighting rod and who knew earthquake

Starters with either combination Breloom, Azumarill, Ninetales, Swellow, Manectric and Flygon is their dream team if a RSE remakes happen

Can't hear Wally's ranking, bro is cooking, and also everything these guys are missing, items, set up, Bro's got Roserade, Talonflamw, Magenzone, Garchomp, and Mega Gallade, bro is also on of the small few trainers to hit the level 80s (Gallade is 81, the rest is 79), levels may not matter but godamn we might have a S tier on our hands.

I keep hearing about the route 110 battle being tough when I've never had problems with it, even if I can't remember the Pokemon they have

Best rival music ever

Do people say the route 110 battle is tough because it’s unexpected? Because a Numel, Shroomish and Wailmer aren’t hard to beat at ALL

All i can notice is that models in oras had fingers but not in Sun and Moon lmao

Bro sounding like a disappointed teacher 💀💀

Should have Flygon as the 6th to setup sandstorm

wait weren’t you just a 29K very recently, like a few days or a week ago?! and now 40K? wow! love to see it

I loved the delta episode of the game, that Zinia character was good

Playing gen 3 im always playing as may just because it really goes with the anime

Gamefreak is SO scared to make difficult bosses sometimes. They're bosses, they're supposed to be difficult.

Can Blaziken even learn Swords Dance?

Still not over the fact that Brendan has brown hair & a beanie instead of white hair & a sweatband

Mays OG overworld sprite has always looked like she has 5:00 shadow to me 😂

Route 110 made me reset my alpha sapphire save that i had picked treecko on (i had already beaten omega ruby) and play it with mudkip again (who i had chosen in omega ruby) lmao

The route 110 battle isn't notoriously difficult. It just happens to be a run ender specifically for speedruns due to the circumstances under which the speed run happens to engage in the fight. For any normal playthrough, it's not a difficult battle. Also, I'm not sure that the Breloom is ever high enough level to have learned spore as a Shroomish then evolve.

Their sixth would be flygon/slaking/salamence/metagross/aggron/grumpig/claydol would be sick

What settings are you using to make ORAS look that good!?

Huh furst time I'm this early for one of these

I had three pokemon who knew earthquake, one I trained into a tank, add that to the broken item that is oras exp. share and it was a disappointing sweep.

WELL NOW WE GOT LEGENDS KALOS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I have been saying for years now that ORAS are super underrated and are some of the best games in the series and I’ll stick by that

Hd oras 😍

Lmao i one shotted all of May's team using Mega rayquaza in the final battle

Old games rivals should be a higher tier than remakes, I loved ORAS as games but truly they were ABSURDLY easy.

YOU NEED A HELD ITEM FOR MEGAS

Wait, y'all thought the route 110 battle was tough?

So, next on the list it's going to be Barry, right? I imagine he's gonna rank quite highly, when compared to the Hoenn rivals and Silver at least. Perhaps not as high as Blue, but perhaps a B+ team? The only reason his last fight against the player before the league is considered "easy", is because nuzlockers, usually grind till Cynthia's lvl cap which is in the 60s, while Barry's team are all in the late 40s and his starter ace is only lvl 52, thus rendering Barry to not being really challenging. But his team all in all, is good, especially the Infernape one, cause otherwise Rapidash is the only other available fire type, dragging the difficulty of the battle down. But yeah, I expect Barry to be a B or B+ in my opinion.

I get Whare you are coming from but I would put them in low B or if the list has it B-

They’re not really “rivals” just friends who battle. Only the player even wants to become champion.

Game name🤔

RSE flubbed the landing with all the rivals. Thank god ORAS fixed them all.

When you realize that if they used legendary pokemon youd never be a to pass them Teams like Rayquaza kyogre/ groudon latias deoxys regi ice jirachi Imagine Rayquaza be like not today 😂 there ain't no god up here just me 😂 Kyogre be like im gonna drown you 😂 Groudon like really bro you stepped up to me 😂 Latias um i know tobias 😂 Regice be like sheer cold holding a focus slash ability guarantees a one time ko move 😂 Deoxys um really do you know what im capable of Rayquaza had a hard time with me and im not even a main stream pokemon 😂 Jirachi um look bro i was sleeping since you woke me up ill wake up all my friends to jump you 😂 new ability revive every pokemon in party with 25% health gains a random stat boost when entering if jirach is last 😂

They will never have wally theme so. F tier

Are you stupid? Speed Boost mega Blaziken with setup? Plus held items? Youd have to overlevel by fucking 30 to have any chance. What next? You want it fully competitively iv and ev trained?

May and Brendan are so easy to beat in ORAS, They were harder in the original trilogy.

*Ruby and Sapphire

What about tierlist of touching grass

*cough*

Dude, these are game for kids.

Ha im early

Thank goodness you didn't take their team from the original games cuz it was trash In Lilycove city which was the last rival battle those 2 weaklings didn't even have a fully evolved starter 😂😂😂

Sea tier..

These rivals suck. They're planks of wood that are never remotely fun or interesting to fight. For being so iconic, they're just awful rivals in general. Both in terms of character and battles.
