i like the alternating between classic singles wifi battles and the sampling of VGC content! also for the top secret QotD: prolly great tusk. as basic of an answer as that is, it basically looks like a savage mega donphan. looks sick.
Great tusks can also take a beating and deal huge damage. I run mine impish max def and hp rocky helmet and I've seen many mons splat against him. If he had a recovery move he'd be unstoppable. Bulk Up Body Press is BnB a long with EQ and final move spin or knock off. Great Tusks is an absolute UNIT and deserves all the love for what he can and does do.
A small thing on Veluza, it's so fast in the overworld because it uses fillet away. If you pay attention to the aggro animation before it rushes you down, you'll see the flesh being discarded before it rushes you down.
Favorite paradox? I'd say Iron Bundle. Just for the fact that Robo Santa Bird over here went from ZU or whatever the lowest tier is currently right to Ubers which is straight up the biggest glow up in pokemon history.
Tera types are such an excellent mechanic. I know it’s probably intended to be this gen’s gimmick, and likely won’t stick around for the next gen, but I REALLY hope it does. It adds a tactical layer that enhances multiplayer matches to perfection 👌
I always look forward to these commentaries especially because your whole narrative is hilarious 😂 plus you give limelight to Pokémon that are deemed “useless” but you prove otherwise 🙌 your prediction game is strong too 🤯
It’s pretty tough because there’s a bunch I’ve got love for but at the end of the day my favourite paradox pokemon has to be brute bonnet. I had no idea I wanted a mushroom dinosaur Pokémon but here we are.
I actually really like Sandy Shocks. Its a goofy design, the concept of it pulling the iron out of the ground as “hair” is hilarious and i always smile when i see it
Brute Bonnet is my favorite. Absolutely love this mon; its 124 base attack combined with a tera dark + helping hand boosted crunch is enough to one shot even Armourage. The fact it also gets spore provides even more defensive utility, and when paired with a Torkoal in a trick room, is almost unstoppable. Or alternatively, you could go t-style fairy, and then run spore, synthesis, sucker punch, and then either seed bomb or close combat, and run this mon as an offensive wall on a singles sun team
Happy New Year, Haydunn, thanks for continuing to show off some of the weirder yet no less lovable mons of the new gen, although I’m disappointed only one of Wugtrio’s three heads gets the hat, haha
roaring moon is probably the sickest paradox pokemon. imagine since roaring moon is basically Salamanca. in 2030 when they give us a new game with all options that roaring moon could use mega evolution.
Rather late on this, but I think my favorite paradox Pokemon is actually a tie, Fluttermane because it's a beast and it's based on my girl Misdreavus that I've loved since Gen 2, and Iron Valiant purely because one I have when I have it out always ends up running up to me to stand next to me basically holding hands and goes to "sleep", and it's just to bloody cute. Though I do have a close third in Scream Tail, I love it's design and it's not a terrible mon. Also if you read this, something that could be interesting to see is a Dragon tera Tinkaton, the Fairy/Steel base type and coverage covers the weaknesses of Dragon, and with Tera Blast being basically Hidden Power but for one Pokemon it can still get use of the dragon typing. It's a little gremlin when it works, though I'll admit it is silly and not very good.
Im loving a lot of the paradox pokemon, but prefer the ‘past’ designs more. Havent played the game, so cant pick a favourite.. but gg, loved seeing the Wugtrio and these mons work together!
Iron Valiant or Flutter Mane are my favorites. Probably the former more since that thing is based on my favorite pokemon and is a "fusion" of Gallade on top of that. Plus it has a freaking energy glaive. Can't beat that lol.
Havent had the chance to experience the paradox pokemon. Taking my sweetazz time playing and completing the dex for the pokemon in the current area im in
I randomly found myself two shiny Hawluchas (one organically, and another when I was shiny hunting Iron Valiant and Iron Hands). I'd love to see you give my Luchabro some representation, Unburden/Acrobatics sounds hilarious
Your iron treads is assault vest with stealth rocks? SQOTD: mine would have to be flutter Maine I just love the typing Keep up the awesome content Hayden
Bringing Wugtrio was 100% worth it just to see how the hats work. Favorite paradox mon is definitely Iron Moth. I have Scarlet so I can't use it, but I still want to.
Screamtail is the best tera imo, it can wall sp attackers. I run protect, wish, rocks, and t wave with lefties for an amazing support, sucks when you get encored tho since you don't have attacking moves
Mabosstiff and bellibolt are my two favourite gen 9 pokemon. Love those guys and wugtrio is a curious one I cant tell if its awful or not so this is an interesting one for me. 😃
