+Rainbow Phoenix A level 1 Bidoof specifically bred for this occasion, as he had a status moveset engineered to have a higher priority than Cynthia's moves. Also, through Dream World -not available today- he could have changed his ability to Moody, infamous for being broken; this possiblity was emulated via pokegen. *TL;DR*: He used a Mewtwo in a beaver's coat.
+Jorge de los Reyes None of the moves used are priority moves. The opponent has a 50% chance to break through confusion, if I recall correctly, and a 33% chance of actually hitting a PokeMon with max evasion. That's a 16.5% chance, which needs to occur twice in a row (once to break Bidoof's sub, and another to actually kill Bidoof.)
Saul Velazquez I used a level 63 Lilligant with Quiver Dance and Substitute and i destroyed half of her team, then I defeated her Garchomp with 1 pokemon left (Samurott lvl 64
Not banning things that promote luck based wins over players using their heads on swaps and setups is foolish. VGC is a joke. No swear words and no legendaries.
I play competitive Pokemon for fun. If I'm going to lose through crits, I could care less, but when a Bidoof wipes out my team with +6 evasion, toxic, and swagger, I'd rather not play at all. It's not *fun*, despite Cynthia saying otherwise.
Yes, Chesto or Lum berry could have prevented that, but I'm not sure what item the Bidoof really was holding. Maybe it was one of the two, just in case, or maybe it was something else that we can't clearly see the effects of. Either way, yes, you could avoid it with a berry.
Ah that's right, I watched the video a week ago and when I saw this I didn't bother watching the video through again, a mistake on my part. But I do think that leftovers would be much more useful in the long run.
Bidoof gained XP! Bidoof grew to level 101! What? Congratulations, Your Bidoof has become Arceus! edit: 6 years later and people are still replying what
+SomeFancyCashews Simple. use level 1's rattatas. All with focus sash. Equipped with Endeavor, with quick attack :). or use level 1's magnemite with sturdy, then a priority move, like quick attack, and add endeavor. DA mvp= Endeavor.
@@meimmakoto3224 he meant before he clicked on the video he assumed it must be hacked. After watching he realized it was just tactical usage of broken moves and mechanics
@@Goofyahhm second to that, I like her stand alone but the way the fandom treats her as a goddess just makes me want to tear through her team as badly as possible
Luke B. they're banned from Smogon, which is what seems to be more popular. Honestly it should be banned in VGC because it promotes winning through luck over skill. You could most likely win a majority of your matches with this setup by simply mashing buttons.
SoulBlast35 Thats why people use Smeargle, who has Moody,and are able to do this. But its worst cause he learns all moves and basically you can put to sleep, tailwind, fake out or transform or do whatever you want. Even omitting this, the VGC format is just terrible, Smogon doubles isthe better format (If you want doubles, if not just go singles and enjoy stall)
+Allen Ramirez Nah, it's no god, it's abuse of Cynthia's retarded AI with a combination of calculated math and strategic planning. Over all, anyone could do such a thing given the proper conditions. I knew the moment I saw the video what he had planned, I decided to watch it to see if I was correct.
Time to do what I do worst and take joke comments as serious comments. It's banned because it is heavily RNG based. And RNG should not be in competitive environments.
Jay Effarelti welp I am to lazy to change iT If you mean THE random capitals thats my phone that JUST DECIDEs to fuck with me And typing a message correct takes About half An hour. And for THE bad spelling, Welp I JUST suck.
if arceus got moody Arceus: ANOTHER STUPID TRAINER OVER HERE TRYING TO CATCH ME! omg I'm so sorry I didn't know what came over me it's just that HEY WHATCHA UP TO WANNA BATTLE?
If you are about to scroll through the comments. DON'T.Just look here. It's just: Why is bidoof not gaining exp And It's rusty' perfect bidoof peanut butter
TROLLPASS (Nosepass) (M) @ Berry Juice Ability: Sturdy Level: 1 Shiny: Yes - Stealth Rock - Magic Coat - Toxic - Pain Split That set is cool too Nice vid ;)
To disprove the theory that this is fake, moves with 100 acuracy can miss when a pokemons evasiveness is raised or accuracy is lowered. Unless the move specifically says it cannot miss, such as shockwave, it can miss when acuracy and evasiveness have been affected at some point during the battle
And about people saying "ermagawd fakeee beeduff cant deel soo much demege" it's because of toxic and confusion damage. If they were immune to toxic (such as Lucario) bidoof would use thunder wave which paralyzes. Confusion damage is 50% chance and getting paralyzed is 25% chance which makes 75% chance failing to attack. Also he used a cheat so that bidoof wouldn't level up. Sucker punch failed because Bidoof only had status moves and sucker punch only works on pokemon that have used a move that deals damage.
Bamd The Bamd It would actually be a 62.5% chance of failing. (1-(.5*.75)) Adding the percentages would mean, for example, if you're under confusion and infatuation, you would never have a chance of landing a hit.
its rediculous if youir lucky enough, too bad its luck based, otherwise everyone would use bidoofs, but this absolutely amazed me, great job man. id like to see the damage this beast can do at lvl. 100.
so lucky all their attacks hit only when you had a sub out and when you didn't have a sub they'd either miss or hit themselves in confusion, those are all the ways this could have gone wrong easily wow lmao i bet cynthia feels like her whole pokemon trainer career is a lie now........lol
Martin Erhard With 6 Bidoofs just like this one, your chances of losing are now 1:48... Meaning your odds of winning are 1:1 1/3... Yeah, it's messed up...
>Rattata can take out one 'mon with its Focus Sash/Endeavor shenanigans and then it's dead Someone would later prove you wrong on that one: /watch?v=Z2Aszgz7Zn4
No one's proved me wrong yet. Again, this doesn't work against her lucario, it has Aura Sphere; no amount of double teaming will work. I could just give the rat the same moveset as what I did for Dunsparce since her Spiritomb allows you to setup as much as you want but you also can't endeavor that. I should've rephrased it to say I don't want to do the same Rattata moveset that everyone knows works but wouldn't work on her. If I just gave Rattata the same moveset as Bidoof, cept tack on Double Team instead of Thunder Wave, I could do that. I could also do that with almost every other normal type in the game at level 1 that can learn it. That video was a really well done takedown, the difference it was on Steven, not Cynthia. One's not harder than the other, Cynthia is arguably easier actually. But they are different fights.
Epic_Toast! I'm not being 100% serious -- obviously Stephen and Cynthia need seperate strats -- just pointing out that you can do more with FEARattata than just take out one enemy pokemon
Not necessarily. Paralysis only cuts the attacking Pokemon's speed by 25%. I never struck first on any of her Pokemon except for Milotic and the only reason for that is because Milotic likes to use Dragon Tail. Dragon Tail is a -6 priority move meaning no matter what the speed of my Bidoof is, it'll attack second. If Milotic used Blizzard or Hydro Pump (which it also has), then it would attack Bidoof first. Hope that clears things up!
that's fair. honestly, it was a bit of a shitpost. mostly I just don't feel like that was a realistic battle becaus eof how often the ocnfusion hit. but whatevs.
