draft league is really proving to be the most interesting and enjoyable competitive scene in pokemon, the fact that lower tier pokemon can shine just as much as higher tier mons is just amazing
Yeah, It is like the opposite to current official pokemon meta. I used to watch pokemon torunaments, now I am so sick of only watching Urshifu, Goldengo, Girafarig and maybe 6 other Ubers, every match seems the same. This Draft format should become world renown
I love Joey and his content! I love the draft league stuff A month or two after new Mons/DLC drop he pumps out vids of garbage mons being used in RU and stuff…I just can’t watch those, they’re not nearly as engaging or entertaining imo 😬
Arboliva came for this poor man's soul. Good god. For as strong as the opposing team was you found its weaknesses and exploited them pretty ruthlessly. That was such a great win that I'm not going to release the gnomes into your house even though you didn't bring billy
@@tomashogberg8514 I’m not sure any of those crts mattered all that much, they all came in matchups that the mon landing the crits was liable to win anyway. I don’t think they changed the run of play so much that the outcome was likely to be significantly different.
@@Verminator4 Well we can only speculate but I definitely think they did matter. If not mathematically then psychologically for sure. Just watch the other side and see how Playmore got super frustrated and flustered etc.
@Verminator4 I don't know if they all mattered (or care enough to look up lol), but to give an example: No crit adamant, 252 atk, choice band earthquake form Swampert vs their Metagross which was impish AND EVd 252 hp 128 def, does 86.2 - 102.1% (I calced at lvl 100 too don't worry). Meaning it would have needed a very, very high roll to KO, and also the crit it also disguised the fact that it was choiced for them too. So very impactful even if it didn't seem like it actually!
Its typing plus its coverage and ability is super underrated. I think ots undervalued due to how many crazy grass types there are but its pretty damn good
@@Cashmoneez sometimes you prep for a handful of threats and dont expect some to be too difficult. Had earth poer chomp for it in case but didnt seem like he thought itd be tough otherwise
These edits are insane! That team preview was perfect. Only thing I would suggest is adding the name of the item right under it so it isn’t forgotten. Kinda hard to see what it is if you didn’t hear it the first time
Yo Joey. I just realised how awesome the intro editing is. Especially the sprites and background and all of it it's just so well made. Love it❤ love watching your content
Man I was a non believer of this draft, but boy was I wrong, I will never doubt you again, that was in my opinion the best team of the league and you walk through it!
Ngl im seriously love those team builders especially those back drops of the gray and white with the mons facing off with urs its probably the best teambuilder slides ever done
WOW the production value is through the roof! Every week now I sit down and watch a solid two hours straight of draft content on a Sunday. I watch a full movie of draft. Keep up the amazing content!
I'm only 2 minutes in and I instantly gotta give a like for CHOICE BAND SWAMPERT. I have literally never even seen or heard about such a set, but I love it.
Playmore had anazing prep. Though it hurt when he hard switched Metagross on Swampert. He probably was expecting Joey to go Icebeam, and he had magnet rise to counter Swampert that he didn't get a chance to get off.
The video production just gets better and better each week, it's insane. Love the team this week, arbolova is such an underappreciated mon. Great match Joey!
Hey Joey, the correct pronounciation for arboliva would actually be ar-bo-lee-va, since its name comes from the Portuguese and Spanish words oliva (olive) and is pronounced with the closed I.
I always love these post game interviews, really shows the quality sportsmanship you have for other coaches, and that they have for you. You unwind after the battle gain eachothers thoughts and insights. Both you and your opponent played well. And I cant wait for Week 3 and the SPL w2 watchtogether You will always be the Pokemon GOAT
Joey is such a draft wagon that they need to nerf him. Legit so much better than anyone else since Wolfe left the format. Like don’t let Joe use anyone else in prep or something lol
I think people sleep on Arboliva because they see another mediocre grass type. But between Tera, ground coverage, two draining moves and passive healing/terrain control via its ability, this thing can be frustratingly hard to deal with and Im super happy how much it got to shine in this match.
draft league is genuinely the most enjoyable form of competitive pokemon at the moment. So interesting and unique and everyone’s ability to make unique and awesome team is just so cool
As a Play More fan and a fan of Bubby I cannot deny the incredible prep you had this week. Throwing The Beneral off his game is hard to do and this is his biggest loss in history! You deserve this victory good sir but we'll be back and we'll see you in the finals and WIN 😡
ARGH! I forgot today was SPL upload day... Thankfully I saved that SPL playlist. Gonna watch through all these battles this week! Also, so many crits! You were blessed by Rngesus, for sure. And wow, Arboliva put in that work. What a threat!
ngl, I'm a relatively new fan, and when I saw this draft I thought Joey was cooked for sure, but I guess I just didn't realize how insane he is. looking around the league, PlayMore's team seems like easily the best draft, and Joey walked through it effortlessly with a goddamn Arboliva. insane stuff.
I used my playthrough Arbie for attacks mainly, it actually has some interesting coverage with Dazz and EP. Pollen Puff was useful for the dobles battles in BlueberryA too.
Popping in from the Play More video to say screw you for winning and thank you for having Swampert and especially Arboliva have an absolute show. Really good game.
Hey Joey! Just had an idea for you: what about just re-uploading old draft games? For me personally, your draft game videos are my absolute favorites and I watch them every week. I feel like others would be super interested to watch other, older draft videos just for fun if you post like a total of 3 a week (1 new 2 old). I think it has potential, so I figured I’d comment just to help get you to 500k. Cheers!
Lol I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not 😂 Tbh if you use the stream watches to do exactly what I said I had no idea - I guess I just click when I see draft video editing style thumbnail which could be true for a lot of others
No i was being serious. Think if i condensed it, it would be harder to make it enjoyable cause of the old style/way the games looked but could be wrong. Either way i think showing off old drafts on watch togethers sounds fun lol
I like that a lot, but for me personally the streams are a bit long and I just realistically don’t have the time to watch them all the way through. Maybe doing both? Uploading individual ones a week and then going through old ones on watch togethers? If you upload one a week I think you get more bang for but I also have not had a successful TH-cam channel 😂 Either way great dub!
I'm a big fan of Playmore and PM7, having sub'd to you at the start if this season, so hopefully you understand how incredibly frustrated I was that this match was SO easy for you from start to finish. You are obviously an incredible battler with a great talent for prepping. You got your one. Ben and Playmore will be back and next time will see a different result. You mark my words. *shakes fist in your direction*
This is better than VGC official xD Realmente esto es mas entretenido que el propio competitivo de pokemon VGC, ojala nintendo o game freak quien este a cargo coga ejemplo de esto
wooooooow, what a game. i knew it was gonna be good but those were some masterful plays gg! it won't be easy but i think you just proved that the 3peat is definitely possible. loved how you use arboliva and can't wait to see billy and dewgong come off the bench next
GG YOU EFFIN GOAT!!! This was an incredible game on your end. The prep was surreal, and to beat such a top end team, it’s like the Chiefs beating the Eagles last year in the Super Bowl. Some of those crits were tough, not sure of the calcs, but the prep can’t be denied.
Man I was expecting Joey to have a rough game but holy heck that Arboliva layed down the law. Also glad to know I am not the only one that thinks both it and Glastrier are super steals.
Such a fire mon!!! And just aside from a mon or two your team is quite good. If you got birb later I don’t think many people would be saying you have a bad draft
As a Play More guy, I knew this would be the toughest team with the toughest coach to deal with. But my God, there was NOTHING to be done. xD Not only is this team such a unique and absolutely disgusting squad (I'm an Arboliva enjoyer now), but those crits (regardless if they mattered or not) were so demoralizing.
I'm kinda new to the competitive scene so, can you choose the IV spread and ability of your pokemon before the battle or it would take to train from scartch a completely different mon? Also, how does terastalize works? Because he mentions one mon can tera into various types Thanks in advance if someone answers, im loving this videos, I'ts the most interesting pokemon content I've seen in a long time!
Ok what you did with the Olive oil tree was good tech. Terrablast normal for STAB and than Terra into a fire type depending on the situation! Very good tech! That Olive oil tree gets overshadowed by Rillaboom but it’s still a good mon!
Holy shit there were so many crits this game, but regardless the way you played was nuts. Your team put in the work!!!! It’s been so exciting seeing you cook with this draft!!!
12:27 the way arboliva is ponounced is just like that but instead of placing emphasis on the ``O´´ sound, you do it on the ``E´´ sound. so it'd be ar-bol-``E´´-va. In spanish the ``I´´ is pronounced like the english ``E´´
Both pronunciations work for Arboliva. Emphasis on the front end is a play on the word "Arbol" which is Spanish for "tree" qmd emphasis on the back end plays more into the "olive" of its name. Either pronunciation works because the pun is still there

Low tier terra is such a great idea. Love to see these mons put in the work
I love Joey and his content! I love the draft league stuff
A month or two after new Mons/DLC drop he pumps out vids of garbage mons being used in RU and stuff…I just can’t watch those, they’re not nearly as engaging or entertaining imo 😬
time to make a massive draft league haha
it's literally always been this way stop the cap.
Joey is such a good guy man he made sure to not bring his squakabilly so the opponent would have a fair chance
Instead he brought a man eating murderous olive plant.
I think you mean Dewgong 😂
Can’t believe you got swept by your own swuakabilly I didn’t know they could do that
This one right here is the winner lmaooo
Hustle got nerfed hard, now Squawk hitting his comrades
fucked up behavior
if you refuse to use your round 1 pick, your opponent is legally allowed to bring it; it's in the rules
Arboliva came for this poor man's soul. Good god. For as strong as the opposing team was you found its weaknesses and exploited them pretty ruthlessly. That was such a great win that I'm not going to release the gnomes into your house even though you didn't bring billy
Yep, although to be fair getting cri 4 times including everytime they get the momentum is a weakness of every single on of us xD
@@tomashogberg8514 I’m not sure any of those crts mattered all that much, they all came in matchups that the mon landing the crits was liable to win anyway. I don’t think they changed the run of play so much that the outcome was likely to be significantly different.

Bro was thanos but honesty I don’t think playmore prepped that well or just had a bad read on aims team this week
@@Cashmoneez sometimes you prep for a handful of threats and dont expect some to be too difficult. Had earth poer chomp for it in case but didnt seem like he thought itd be tough otherwise
@@Cashmoneezwho preps for the olive though. I def wouldn't have put enough respect on it, homegirl carried this match
Aim is wearing the Scope Lens today. Sheesh.
Arboliva went crazy bro. You’re prep as a whole was very cool this week and it was nice to see it do work.
These edits are insane! That team preview was perfect. Only thing I would suggest is adding the name of the item right under it so it isn’t forgotten. Kinda hard to see what it is if you didn’t hear it the first time
Yeah I had to rewind because I forgot qwilfish was eviolite, but otherwise the layout and editing is sublime
Yo Joey. I just realised how awesome the intro editing is. Especially the sprites and background and all of it it's just so well made. Love it❤ love watching your content
What game, Tera Fly Billy 6-0s probably the strongest team in the league.
Man I was a non believer of this draft, but boy was I wrong, I will never doubt you again, that was in my opinion the best team of the league and you walk through it!
Ngl im seriously love those team builders especially those back drops of the gray and white with the mons facing off with urs its probably the best teambuilder slides ever done
I love how Arboliva looks when it teras
Was just about to comment this. With the fire terra it’s especially beautiful
WOW the production value is through the roof! Every week now I sit down and watch a solid two hours straight of draft content on a Sunday. I watch a full movie of draft. Keep up the amazing content!

Oh hell yeah, CB pert is one of my favorite sets of all time! Simple, but brutally effective in the right context
It was pretty nice in competitive gen 4 OU as a slight surprise, not surprised that it's been on aim's radar
Really good in gen 3 but that was before physical split
intros are co clean man, and great work with arbolivs this week!
The number of crits was insane 💯 but insane prep and in-game plan
only one of them even mattered
Playmore had anazing prep. Though it hurt when he hard switched Metagross on Swampert. He probably was expecting Joey to go Icebeam, and he had magnet rise to counter Swampert that he didn't get a chance to get off.
The video production just gets better and better each week, it's insane. Love the team this week, arbolova is such an underappreciated mon. Great match Joey!
joey might be the goat fr fr
38:04 joey was definitely about to say f u 😂
Top tier quality Joey! Absolutely love the return of draft :)
Arboliva really just said "Nah i'd sweep"
Hey Joey, the correct pronounciation for arboliva would actually be ar-bo-lee-va, since its name comes from the Portuguese and Spanish words oliva (olive) and is pronounced with the closed I.
Joey mispronouncing Arboliva the whole video and Ben just nailing it like 10 seconds into the interview lmao
This is how i was told to pronounce it :(
Other Pokemon: *Uniquely designed calls that took a modicum of creativity to design*
Glastrier: *Just horse noises*
I always love these post game interviews, really shows the quality sportsmanship you have for other coaches, and that they have for you.

Arboliva is based on the olive, but I think it’s based on the Spanish words for tree (Arbol) and olive (oliva).
Yeah so it’s not ar ball liv ah, it’s actually ar bol leev uh if you wanna be technically correct lol
I always heard olive in Spanish as aceituna
@@barkerbrossman7696 you can use both
@@barkerbrossman7696 It's because this word is used for olive oil. Acete de oliva (or something like that, I know portuguese but it's pretty close).
Great plays Aim. The predicts were phenomenal.
This was absolute fire!
You're making arboliva look like an Uber Legendary, it was so cool to watch!
Spoiler Shield 🛡️
Damn that was a dominate win they made a statement this season
Arboliva was such a demon in this match, I'm so shook.
Arboliva was not messin around today! She had that hidden scope lens 😳 great job Joey! Thanks for all the hard work to entertain us! 💚
As a Play More fan and a fan of Bubby I cannot deny the incredible prep you had this week. Throwing The Beneral off his game is hard to do and this is his biggest loss in history! You deserve this victory good sir but we'll be back and we'll see you in the finals and WIN 😡
True! We'll be back!
GODD DAMNNN That Arboliva went harddd!! He literally took the whole team down
ARGH! I forgot today was SPL upload day... Thankfully I saved that SPL playlist. Gonna watch through all these battles this week!
Also, so many crits! You were blessed by Rngesus, for sure. And wow, Arboliva put in that work. What a threat!
"I am out of range of the Valorant"
Had me cracking up lol
I mean he was. He really wanted arbo to take on valiant and it worked out. Prep king aim
@@brain_tonic The funny part is him saying "Valorant" instead of Valiant, not that he was out of range lol

Team breakdown and editing were pretty hot in this
Loved seeing Arboliva shine! I used my playthrough Boliv as a screen setter, but now I know it can be more than that!
I used my playthrough Arbie for attacks mainly, it actually has some interesting coverage with Dazz and EP. Pollen Puff was useful for the dobles battles in BlueberryA too.
Joey flip turn on swampert is ok but where is the hydrocannon? Huntail is crying from his grave.
Loving the new editing in these draft league videos!
Popping in from the Play More video to say screw you for winning and thank you for having Swampert and especially Arboliva have an absolute show. Really good game.
i've been wanting to use this mon as a tera cap forever. thanks for showing the world why
Only 3min into the vid and HOLY SMOKES THE EDITING AND LAYOUT IS AMAZING

Joey, you are THE GOAT. Only you could use this team and destroy play more's caliber team.
LET’S GO ARBOLIVA!! One of my new favs putting in work!!
This is better than VGC official xD
Realmente esto es mas entretenido que el propio competitivo de pokemon VGC, ojala nintendo o game freak quien este a cargo coga ejemplo de esto

So happy to see Arboliva kicking ass, props to my favourite grass pokemon from SV!
I don't even really watch pokemon content much anymore, but I have a soft spot for this legacy league. Its been so amazing and we're only in week 2
This crit rate is crazy! Well played though looks like you didn't need em
This prep is just unbelievable! So dam good! Ripper of a game.
That Arboliva is crazy was not expecting it to do this good
Joey is the GOAT dawg, never ceases to amaze and put on an amazing performance
AIM you truly are a legend for this
Gg Joey you really showing the power of friendship this season Lmaooo
I was at the edge of my seat that entire game. That was a slaughter!
have i ever said, cinderace, victini, and diancie are me three favorite pokemon and it just feels so good that you have two of them on your team.
Impressive win over play more. Their team looked tough.
I've been waiting for this!
Team breakdown editing fire as always
Man who is your editor bc gawd damn
Can’t wait for the weakness policy/agility dewgong make an appearance in the future
That Scizor HP stat… the ancient ways…
GG YOU EFFIN GOAT!!! This was an incredible game on your end. The prep was surreal, and to beat such a top end team, it’s like the Chiefs beating the Eagles last year in the Super Bowl.

Jesus that tree is a monster hahahhaha congrats Joey!
Hell yeah Joey! That’s how pokeaim does!
why are you so good at this format like I can't even be mad you still haven't brought billy
elestral nicknames goes so crazy
Such a fire mon!!! And just aside from a mon or two your team is quite good. If you got birb later I don’t think many people would be saying you have a bad draft
Arboliva with the tera fire crown looks like a futuristic olympics logo
Arboliva putting in crazy work. You love to see it
loved the post game interview
Arboliva hit em with the "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"
Awesome match and preview!
This is the first and last time arboliva will ever be the kill leader of any draft league team
Watch comp pokemon videos has single-handedly made me fall in love with Arboliva, when i couldnt care less about it when i first saw it
31:51 out of range of what pokemon?
As a Play More guy, I knew this would be the toughest team with the toughest coach to deal with.
But my God, there was NOTHING to be done. xD Not only is this team such a unique and absolutely disgusting squad (I'm an Arboliva enjoyer now), but those crits (regardless if they mattered or not) were so demoralizing.
I'm kinda new to the competitive scene so, can you choose the IV spread and ability of your pokemon before the battle or it would take to train from scartch a completely different mon? Also, how does terastalize works? Because he mentions one mon can tera into various types
Thanks in advance if someone answers, im loving this videos, I'ts the most interesting pokemon content I've seen in a long time!
pretty sure they're using fake generated mon for these battles otherwise it would be a hassle to raise them all
joey had a scope lens equipped irl wtf
Ok what you did with the Olive oil tree was good tech. Terrablast normal for STAB and than Terra into a fire type depending on the situation! Very good tech! That Olive oil tree gets overshadowed by Rillaboom but it’s still a good mon!
Oh my God, Arboliva was getting a fat lick off on play more’s team, it’s crazy how these lower tier guys can seem so powerful in draft
Holy shit there were so many crits this game, but regardless the way you played was nuts. Your team put in the work!!!! It’s been so exciting seeing you cook with this draft!!!
glad to see my favorite gen 9 mon and mascot finally get the love it deserves
12:27
the way arboliva is ponounced is just like that but instead of placing emphasis on the ``O´´ sound, you do it on the ``E´´ sound.
so it'd be ar-bol-``E´´-va. In spanish the ``I´´ is pronounced like the english ``E´´
I was looking forward to this match both before and prior to watching it
Both pronunciations work for Arboliva. Emphasis on the front end is a play on the word "Arbol" which is Spanish for "tree" qmd emphasis on the back end plays more into the "olive" of its name. Either pronunciation works because the pun is still there
There goes all of joeys crits for the next 5 weeks 😂
Most didn't matter sure but just the quantity was crazy
fire gaming as usual big joe, LETS GO WAKERS
Loving the draft league content!!!
