Who Is The Strongest COMPETITIVE Legendary Pokemon? 

I'd say Miraidon. It's so versatile and powerful that it's not even funny. It has great offenses, the ability helps its offenses even more and it's not that bad defensively either, making it almost a must pick for Gen 9 Ubers and there's even talks of banning him, which I hope they do.

Mewtwo No explanation

My favorite is Fezandipiti! But Mega Rayquaza is the strongest for sure.

@@Miiverse227 It was amazing in the first few gens. But powercreep and such made it worse and worse by the years. Yes, it gets more tools every generation. Shame it ain't enough to fight against powercreep, especially when its type holds it back already.

Good morning everybody good morning

I feel like Mega Rayquaza is cheating, though. A Mega Zacian would be legit unbeatable.

@@SaintPhoenixx He wouldn't though... Since he couldn't hold his Rusted Sword, he couldn't be Crowned Zacian, so the mega-evolution would go based on his normal stats. Don't get me wrong, he'd still be absurdly strong, (almost the mega-Mewtwos BST) but not that much stronger than the normal Crowned form. More Attack and Speed isn't as good as it seems when you can already kill anything... he'd essentially be more defensive and that's it...

Stat-wise, the crown goes to Eternamax Eternatus, with a whopping 1125 total stats.

Are you talking about VGC, singles, BSS, or in game playthrough

I’d say it’s quite close between Ray and Groupon. While Ray is good enough to make its own tier in singles, it was nowhere near as dominating as Primal Groupon in VGC, which had phenomenal placements, while still being a top tier pick in singles as well. In essence, they basically had reverse results in the formats. And double that, Groudon saw tons of usage even without that form.

Breaking rules Urshifu

@@Oreca2005 Breaking other rules: Shadow Rider Calyrex

In the context of their own game: Gen 1 Mewtwo.

Breaking the game funbro

Yes Kyogre is the best Pokémon of all time since 3g to 5g,he is really good during 6-7g before and during ROSA and he is really strong in 8g and 9g.Rayquaza is the worst of the trio during the 3/4/5/6(before Rosa)/7/8g in Vgc and Smogon. He is only really broken in 6g and 7g thanks to the Mega but even in Vgc the primals are better. Kyogre is the best of the trio no contest but the video use notably the prime of the legendaries so Rayquaza is better for the video.

Yeah the video was pretty on-point but I think it sold Kyogre short- there's a reason it had a long reign as the "King of Ubers". It has a long history of domination in both singles and VGC.

That and it checks incineroar

Maybe for PLZA specifically like how Legends Place Arceus is the strongest in only one game. Because we don't know for certain if the new Mega Evolutions introduced will ever hit a mainline game like say Gen 10, and since PLZA will likely not have the ability to do PvP if it takes inspiration from PLA, then it'd just be like them and that's it.

If the next game is Legends Z-A, wouldn't we also get a Mega Mewtwo A?

@@Dad_Shoeswhich basically means we get Mega Charizard A too😦

@@dereka5310 Yeah, I'm fine with that. Just as long as the others get new Megas, I wouldn't mind.

SU-PER-BOSS. SU-PER-BOSS.

Between Koraidon and Miraidon I think it's more a thing of what you want to do with the paradox lizard slot. Miraidon sure has slightly higher possible damage output due to being Electric type in Electric Terrain, but the sun from harsh sunlight essentialy gives Koraidon a 3rd STAB in Fire moves, so it has more build diversity. In the context of Scarlet and Violet with Tera, I'd say that it's better to have more options to hit things for big damage than to have slightly less options to hit things for bigger damage, but once Tera most likely gets swept for a new battle mechanic in the next set of games, Miraidon will probably come out better.

I've heard Tom Holland before but this is a new one lol

Heck even Play Rough from Zacian is gonna hurt a lot. But yeah Flutter Mane is going to destroy it, especially with being further buffed by said Koriadon’s ability.

I've been seeing a lot of people comment that Koraidon won't see much play because of Flutter Mane, but I completely disagree. Firstly, they naturally have a speed tie, so who has the highest speed investment will likely KO the other before it can do anything. The thing is that given Koraidon's much higher and better distributed base stats in its bulk it will have much less to lose going fully 252 Jolly than Flutter Mane going 252 Timid. "Oh but Flutter Mane can start with Incineroar for Intimidate + Fake Out" and Koraidon use Protect alongside a Calyrex Shadow next to it to give 0 care for Fake Out + still threaten Flutter Mane all in one. Secondly, in reg E H-Arcanine was also 4x weak to AND ALSO SLOWER than both Urshifu Water and Lando-T, "just" the 2 the most splashable and omnipresent mons that got added in reg D and that stayed that all the way through reg E and, even with all this against it, H-Arcanine only did not win 2 reg E events (one of which it even finished 2nd, so it could very well have won), so I think its very possible this happens with Koraidon x Flutter Mane as well. And lastly, althought Koraidon is yet to become legal in VGC, both it and Flutter have been usable in the Smogon singles since forever and it has not stopped Koraidon from becoming the 1# used mon and threat there for quite a while now (I know singles and doubles have completely different approaches, but if Flutter Mane was this absolutely anti-Koraidon beast that wouldn't ever let it see the light of day, then for sure Koraidon wouldn't be as good as it is in Ubers). Flutter Mane is a good counter against it in singles and for sure will be in VGC as well, but not to the point of COMPLETELY KILLING ITS VIABILITY BEFORE IT EVEN BEGINS like many are claiming and like Incineroar does to pretty much every Intimidate user in VGC when it becomes legal).

@@tezminator Orachalchum pulse can't increase Koraidon's speed, so as long as Flutter Mane is Protosynthesis speed it will always outspeed and if Flutter is paired with a ground type partner it can cover for any potential tera type, one of those ground types is the alternate sun setter, Groudon

@@DaMrWiz indeed Orichalcum Pulse only increases attack, but Choice Scarf sets will level the field again on speed terms (and even before the new regulation drops it's pretty much certain that it will be a popular item due to the existence of faster Fairy than Flutter Mane in base speed being Zacian-C capable of not only hurting a lot like other people have commented, but outright threatening a straight up OHKO on Koraidon with Play Rough). And on partners topic, there's the Calyrex Shadow I mentioned before, but there's also Groudon's favorite blue with red details fish friend Kyogre, which has more Sp. attack, Spdef and HP than Flutter + turns off the boost that it gets from Orichalcum Pulse. It may look like anti synergy to use Kyogre and Koraidon together, but one beats what the other can't, so you just have to get a good positioning in which weather to be active and you're good to go.

Saying something will not be good because just flutter mane is laughable lol. Urshifu, both forms, has seen huge successes when glitter mane was right there even being much slower than flutter. Mon needs to do bad into other things to be bad too. And it's not. It's good into both urshifus, raging bolt, and all the other format staples. If we account for legendaries it's really only zacian matchup which can be solved with Tera and speed controls. It do good into literally everything else.

So was Zacian and Calyrex-S and Miraidon (Only in NatDex so far but it might change). So they've the right to contend as well.

And Zacian is stronger than mega Rayquaza.

Zacian-Crowned would wipe the floor with Mega Rayquaza

@@Jlaps941 Zacian has the type advantage. Of course it would win. Mega Rayquaza however tore Smogon to pieces from day 1, Zacian did not

@@Jlaps941Mega rayquaza don’t cripple by burning and intimidate Zacian in other hand is forced to hold rusted sword mega rayquaza can run special move with 180 sp.atk and can hold any items

It also ruined Unite as far as I remembered. Not exactly sure how since I don't play it, but I did hear it's broken. It's like anywhere she enters, she leaves behind a pile of bones.

Right but even though koraidon usage is much higher?

​@@tylersmith1639Miraidon is more broken in a sense that it is harder to check. Specs or calm mind then you just clean 2hko almost everyone on ubers. I think it should be on the video, because it is truly what is "strongest". But the reason why koraidon got more usage is what was stated in the video, the team playing factor that let it be more splashable(doesn't mean miraidon isn't splashable too lol that mon is still #2)

Then why isn't calyrex-shadow the strongest because its actually banned from ubers?

@@xian2themax better home region reps. Both zacian forms are ag in gen 8. Only 1 instance of AG Caly-S.

Agreed. Miraidon is just simply better in many facets compared to Koraidon as long as it's in the Singles meta, the well known Smogon and the gimmick ones too because of those reasons. Koraidon only surpasses Miraidon in Doubles at most and it's not like Miraidon can't do decent in Doubles either, especially when Iron Hands are so prevalent there.

There's certainly a case for either of them imo. Miraidon does have the benefit of STAB + being a special attacker, but I do see sun being better for more teams and giving a benefit to more Paradox teammates, since the Past Paradoxes are already very common in VGC. It could go either way!

@@JPRPokeTrainer98 Agreed. As I've said above, I think both of them are different. Koraidon excelling in Doubles and Miraidon in Singles but one can do just fine by using one in opposite formats too. They're different yet capable all the same.

​​​​@@GoinGreninjaYes but even in Vgc i think Miraidon is better. The double weakness to fairy type is so annoying and he will share probably usage with Groudon. Even if Koraidon is way better than Groudon,Groudon has few advantages (better bulk,neutral to fairy and a really good aoe stab) that Koraidon don't have who can give a good niche for Groudon. Also the electric type is a better offensive and defensive typing than the fighting type.

@@tchoupivsoui-oui3231 True. But Terastallization exists. So if need be, Koraidon can make a good case by just using Tera Fire, combining with Flare Blitz. That's what people already use in Singles and it keeps up with Miraidon to a small extent, so I wouldn't be surprised. But without Teras, Miraidon is better in Singles without a doubt and somewhat in Doubles, in my opinion.

Weathers are better and more flexible than terrains, in VGC the support they provide is absurd, althrough its true that the sun doesnt increase any koraidon's STAB, techinally gives him an additional fire STAB due to his ability.

@@nicolascastro1417I would say Koraidon be good…. But this is the same gen they introduce one the most powerful fairy type fluttermane do you really want to Tera sink when you could just bring Groudon instead

​@@thelatiking5981koraidon ain't a tera sink since he doesn't need to tera to be absurd and he's much better than groudon offensively and only a little worse defensively. Koraidon also counters a lot of restricted and common mons

@@nicolascastro1417 still koraidon is not stronger than miraidon. Koraidon is forced to use a fire-type move along side dragon and fighting to make good use of its ability, which miraidon does not have to do besides it's electric and dragon types. I admit they should be at the same spot as equals and a tie.

Nowadays with Dragon Dance and Loaded Dice, Kyurem-Black is better.

Easier to find and better for branding probably. Short and sweet means it will pop up easier if you search it.

Arceus is a Mythical Pokémon. That's why he wasn't brought up this video.

Mega Mawile has the power associated with Fairy/Steel and Huge Power. Klefki with the resistances Fairy/Steel brought that got Swagger banned forever despite Prankster Swagger existing before . Tinkaton with an insanely powerful signature Steel move. Zacian Crowned with all the above.

Well, I was right about paying attention to competitive...and about having three options. Lol. Can't believe I forgot the menace that was Zacian... he gets my vote, because once Tera-fire is gone, koraidon is gonna pop like a balloon to one Play Rough or D. Gleam.

Gen wise, gen 1 mewtwo is way above all others. People don’t remember how weak Pokémon were back then compared to today. No items, no ability, bad coverages. Mewtwo had it all: best score in the best stat (special), best type in gen 1 (psy was only weak to bug, with the top bug attack being pin missile), top 5 in all of his other stats. The best team you could make in gen 1 was 6 mewtwo. No Pokémon can boast that feat, even if on paper they are stronger. Simply because there are way more powerful Pokémon’s now.

​@@jeanlou3playground bully mewtwo

Their abilities are gimmicky and give them a huge advantage. Also they have busted signature moves

What's wrong with Flare Blitz?
