There's 2 things in the DLC that i'd like to try out. 1. Dripplin using it's move that slows each turn for 3 turns on a teammate with Lash Out and maybe also weakness policy and Trick Room. 2. Use Kommo-o with Clangerous Soul and Flamigo with Co-star for the easy double omniboost. It's essentially a weaker but much easier to pull off version of the Dondozo and Tatsugiri + Flamigo strat.
@@olivergro7105 oh definitely but hopefully you can supplement the team with other pokemon that have good (or as good as you can get) matchups into it and have them knock it out first. Either that or perhaps a steel Tera on Kommo-o with bulletproof (to block shadowball) can help? But this might all just be wishful thinking/copium.
Let us freaking hope! Because if everyone begins to learn it, especially the defensive ones, then stall strats will begin again, which not many are especially fond of...
@@Real_AnimA I use Garganacl on my team sometimes and I can say that Salt Cure is already pretty good for it as is. It doesn't need another overwhelming tool in its arsenal just because. It's the first time stall was given a huge blow, after all.
Say what you want about burning jealousy, I used it on my Flareon as a Zacian Nerf in Galar. Since so many people lead with Zacian and he gets his intrepid sword boost, Burning Jealousy burns him- and Flareon resists all of Zacians Stabs. This is a move I have been hoping comes back!!
I do think a fair amount of the Isle of Armor tutor moves will absolutely come back. And the one I'd love most would be is Baxcalibur potentially gaining Scale Shot. Teaming up with Alolan Ninetales with Aurora Veil and potentially other Snow users like Mamoswine could make Snow teams extremely threatening, both in Singles and Doubles, which I'd absolutely love to see! Edit: So it seems that Baxcalibur does learn it actually. My god is this gonna be huge!
@@supermannygamer2003 Galarian Darmanitan was extremely threatening in Singles because of Gorrila Tactics and Calyrex-Ice was extremely threatening in doubles because of Trick Room teams, so it's not like Ice types were never scary. It's just that they're extremely unfortunate most of the time. But Snow has given them a new lease in life. With them pairing up with the best Snow setter in the game, even the most meh of Ice types can gain tons of relevancy just like that!
@@supermannygamer2003 I wouldn't call immediately, but yes, it does give their viability a fair amount of damage, especially ones they could've avoided by being literally anything else.
Now that the DLC is out, here's a few buffs that happened besides the mentioned in the video: - Ninetales (both forms) now have access to Baton Pass. - Shiftry now has Wind Rider. - Empoleon FINALLY got Defiant swapped for Competitive. - Torterra can now use Shell Smash, Grassy Glide and Headlong Rush. - Infernape got Drain Punch.
@@atiquezzamanrussell5351 it only works if they set up on the same turn as you using Burning Jealousy, if you switch in on a setup move and they don’t set up next turn it doesn’t burn. You could also accomplish this same thing with Will-O-Wisp much more reliably.
As if Weavile hadn't had enough with gen 9. Not only the same typed Chien-Pao was introduced here, with better speed, an actually great ability, now you wanna give it Triple Axel too. RIP Weavile
im honestly quite interested in Farigiraf. because you said Rillaboom getting Grassy glide back would buff it a lot. but Farigiraf have Armor tail (prevent priority) and Sap Sipper (Absorbs Grass type move) so maybe it could be a good counter to it
Scorching sands, on typhosion both forms is what I'm hoping for. Regular typhosion has really poor type coverage so it would help a lot, and for the hisuan form it's another move that can status the opponent and increase the power of infernal parade.
@@sleeper9550 Meh, nobody complained about Gen6 Greninja. Shadow Tag would be great. Infernal Perade + Scorching Sands. Delphox needs Scorching Sands,Energy Ball and Moon Blast and it's immediately good if paired with Life Orb.
@@Nosretepgren was literally banned in singles in gen 6. shadow tag typhlosion-h would be stuck in ubers in singles. vgc i’m less comfortable commenting on bc it’s not a format i play or follow. as for magic guard it’s kinda an absurd ability gf have been a lot less willing to distribute since gen 5 ended
Talking about Glimmora and Meteor Beam, my immediate thought was how cool it'd be if like Solar Beam it got to charge faster in, say, Psychic Terrain, but then I remembered unlike Solar Beam it has that special attack buff, so it not being able to quick-charge like SB was actually a pretty good way to balance it and other charge-moves (stuff like Fly and Dive as well, they have the added benefit of a turn of invincibility)... but THEN I remembered that Archaludon brings that new move that pretty much does exactly that! And while it might be exclusive to Archaludon for now, I'm BETTING that move will spread to other Pokemon as time goes on! So now, imagine if Meteor Beam actually could quick-charge on Psychic Terrain-teams! It'd give primarily rock-types more synergy with Psychic Terrain and could create a push to make them a combination like rain-teams with electric-types or sun-teams with grass-types.
If the paradox form of terrakion follows the pattern that we've seen with Iron Leaves (grass/psychic) and Iron Crown (steel/psychic), a rock/psychic mon with quick charge meteor beam and STAB expanding force could be deadly!
@@foofootoo true, I didn't think of that, but at the same time, that'd also somewhat require Paradox Terrakion to have a decent special attack stat (which, looking at Iron Leaves, they decided to give it only base 70), and for Game Freak to give it access to Meteor Beam in the first place, if they feel Beam-type moves don't make much sense on Paradox Terrakion and thus don't give it any, that'd be that.
6:56 Burning jealousy was actually an option to shut down Zacian Zacian would get +1 at the start of the battle because of its ability,if you predicted the zacian lead correctly you could burn zacian Some incineroar did run that move
here’s an idea that might have already happened Rillaboom @ Grassy Seed Ability: Grassy Surge Tera Type: Grass - Grassy Glide Oranguru @ Choice Band Ability: Symbiosis - Instruct if the ability works as It’s described that would be pretty powerful
For the love of god, aradactyl needs brave bird. I know it won’t happen, but there are so many broken pokemon that Buffing older gen mons shouldn’t be a problem
I'm really hoping that they add some tutor that gives event exclusive moves (ex. Sludge Wave Gengar). Was a major feels bad having a special/event Pokémon being converted to a "normal" Pokémon upon transfering into SV
Even if Dondozo gets Toxic, it will still have counters (i.e Toxicroak if its only attacking move is Wave Crash, or more likely a bulky Magic Guard Pokémon like Clefable), but still then the issue is that Dondozo would drag games obscenely long. I think it would be much funnier if Tatsugiri learned toxic instead of Dondozo, as that would almost be like a slap in the face
I hope that all of the moves from the Isle of Armor will be accessible in the Teal Mask DLC. I say this because, unless I missed something, they only confirmed Grassy Glide, Poltergeist, Burning Jealousy, Lash Out, and Toxic, which is from Gen 1. Sad to hear that Grassy Glide got nerfed to 60 base power. Granted, it could be worse. Still, I am glad to have that move returning, especially for Rillaboom. I assume Meowscarada will be able to learn this move. It'll be interesting to see how well Brambleghast performs with Poltergeist. Maushold would be neat to see gain Triple Axel. I'm excited to see which Pokémon from Legends Arceus and S/V(including those introduced in the Teal Mask & the Indigo Disk) will acquire which of the Isle of Armor moves. With Toxic coming back, I hope that there will be other moves coming back, such as High Horsepower, Mystical Fire, Steel Wing, Aqua Tail, Iron Tail, Blaze Kick, Water Pulse, Heal Bell, Defog, Roost, Knock Off, and Scald.
Scorching Sands Skeledirge, Toedscruel, Sandy Shocks, Rising Voltage Sandy Shocks, Bellibolt, Grassy Glide Brute Bonnet, Expanding Force Espathra/Farigiraf, these are some of the cool options we could possibly get, with some busted potential in terms of power/support. Not to mention the mons that weren't in SwSh that may get access to these moves! So exciting!
Weavile's already heavily outclassed by Chien-Pao to begin with. So it should at least keep one niche instead of it being replaced forever unless you're playing a lower tier or something.
you know what would shake the meta at its core right now. the return of pursuit or a more powerful version or pursuit because it's hard to punish switchers easily and pursuit would completely change team comps
So, one thing I like to do is run choice scarf modest indeedee with expanding force because firing off a psychic hyper beam is not only fun but turns a lot of the ghost types in the meta into fodder because normal type.
Seems kind of counter intuitive on GF's behalf to first limit the amount of 'mons with access to Toxic only to then just go "Just kidding, here's the Toxic TM" and all who could previously learn it can do so again.. It's probably gonna have a more limited distribution this time around
GF: What we learned from Gen 8 when we had busted leyends that made a Starter Pokemon strong as a legendary with a single move? Beta testers: Nothing... GF: That's right! Let's do it again! (Koraidon, Miraidon, Meowscarada, Skeriledge)
If you had poltergiest over Shadow sneak on bramble u wouldnt be able to hit flutter cuz of booster energy being consumed . Unless it dies to seed bomb or whatever grass move bramble gets.
The teal mask dlc has just came out, and Cramorant might be viable! This is because it’s gulp missile ability can paralyse ground types and (although I haven’t checked yet so it’s just a theroy) maybe even Ghouldengo as well!!!!
Man, the cool stuff i see makes me want to get back into Violet, but I've just been so disillusioned by Pokemon lately, both in casual and competitive contexts. Maybe i can hunt a few more shinies...
Imagine Flip Turn on Dondozo - it would have an option to swap out and spit the Tatsugiri out where it was. I doubt it would happen but would be very refreshing for Dondozo gameplay. Speaking of Dondozo if you can predict the turn it swallows Tatsugiri, you can use Burning Jelousy to burn it while doing some dmg. Plus Burning Jelousy have perfect accuracy unlike will-o-miss. Oh and you can have Assault Vest mon with Burning Jelousy but not with the status moves. This might shift the meta and make Dondozo use Water Veil or use Fire Tera over other options.
For me the best movesets I've found for dragonite were dragon claw, dual wingbeat/fire punch, extreme speed, d dance. If you have enough power the resistance steel types have isn't usually a problem. But swapping fire punch around is a preference thing. Hopefully the fact that many pokemon just don't get toxic anymore means that the move was outright removed from their learnsets. Dondozo getting something like that I'd a special kind of bull.
@@malakimphoros2164 Ever since Rillaboom's reign of terror in gen 8 I've been praying that it gets grassy glide because it's easily the worst Tapu since Koko is used a lot, Lele was one of the most popular wall breakers in gen 7 and 8, and even fini was a staple in stall but bulu had nothing going for him in singles or doubles. While I can see why priority grassy glide from bulu might be to strong, he only has 5 attack over rillaboom and is probably just as bulky because of his smaller hp stat so I don't know if he'll even be better than rillaboom I just wan't him to have something.
I find it funny that Ghost does not have strong physical moves, but Ghost was a physical type in the first three gens. (Shadow Ball for Physical damage anyone?)
Another use of lash out could be on weavile, honchkrow, and bisharp, since their best dark move is night slash, which is only 70 base power as opposed to 75. In RU prior to shifts, one of the best pokemon was Tauros-Paldea-Aqua. Even after shifts it is still good and probably the best answer to Weavile. Weavile could use lash out on CB to punish Tauros for switching in, and because Weavile isn't too common right now, not running intimidate is not optimal.
I don't think it'll be particularly viable but if Torkoal gets Burning Jealousy you could pair it with something that learns Swagger, then you've got a Burnt + Confused opponent, seems like a fun little combo.
And the burn doesn't reduce the confusion damage I'm pretty sure it just halves the base power of attacks so you get to cancel out the attack boost while keeping the increase in confusion damage which can stack up quick with the chip from burning jealousy itself and the burn it inflicts
hey foo, can you make a video of Lurantis getting buffed in the Teal mask? it just recently got superpower as an egg move and everyone seems to think it still doesn’t
Scale shot is stupidly good on Garchomp too ironically because Garchomp can’t increase it’s speed without it and it’s basically better than outrage if it hits more than 3 times
A lot of the stuff does look quite promising indeed. However, it just feels like it's filled with reasonable assumptions and slight leaps in logic. Since the DLC isn't out yet and since DLCs aren't physical to get early, datamines won't happen until the next day and a half or so. So, we just've to hope that some of the stuff there does make it, like Scale Shot Baxcalibur because that just sounds amazing!
@@Hammerbruder99 Indeed! Also, that may or may not open up the possibility for Baxcalibur having it too, which if combined with Alolan Ninetales, could legitimately be an Ubers threat in singles and be insanely capable in doubles.
duraladon gets and evolution, the dragon gym leaders ace pokemon, the gym leader that could rival champions pokemon gets an evo, thats going to be overpowered as hell
I know that Rising Voltage is literally programmed into SV, but is not possible to be learnt by any pokemon (The only way you can use it is by getting lucky with metronome), so it's very likely it will be returning. I really hope Ampharos gets it so that it can get overshadowed by Vikavolt anyway!
One thing I did in gen 8 was use prankster sableye with leer to reduce the defense of all Pokémon aside from sableye by one stage activating lash out while making it hit even harder.
Ogrepon has that gimmick that if it tera, it boosts the stats of its team so maaaaaaaaaaybe jealousy might see use but that depends on ogrepon and even then you need to predict the tera turn
I’m a little worried about Dragapult getting Poltergeist, it would run Ghost Terablast just because it didn’t have good physical ghost stab, and even though it required a terastallization, it was still a popular pick. If it gets Poltergeist, it won’t need to Tera to use a good physical ghost move, and that could be pretty scary.
Dragapult didn't get Poltergeist in Gen 8, so I think it's realistic that this is still the case in Gen 9. Dragapult is well balanced right now and a strong Ghost STAB attack would completely change how it's played. The rise of physical Dragapult... I definitely like Will-O Hex sets more.
@@Hammerbruder99 Well, Zamazenta didn’t get Body Press in Gen 8, and now it does, so I wouldn’t say it’s off the table. Physical Tera Ghost Dragapult got play at worlds this year, so I think it could be pretty terrifying if it got Poltergeist. We’ll see how it goes.
@@pjanderson4876 It didn't get Poltergeist... Again. It clearly feels like an intentional decision by Gamefreak at this point. It'll likely never learn it in any game by the looks of it.
@@GoinGreninja I saw that, honestly I’m a little glad, but never say never. Next Gen it’ll learn Giga-spook Hammer, a 160 base damage physical ghost move that only has the drawback of not being able to use twice in a row.
Even nerfed grassy glide's damage is so powerfull thx to terra it comes very close to knock out kingdra and iron valiant however gurented oh ko after SR chip It also helps that water,fairy is quite common terra type rillaboom will rise once rain teams starts to go out of hands
