I like running weakness policy, rocky helmet and focus band. Got a 207k game using it. Far more reliant on teammates/support. And getting ahead early though Even being one lvl ahead makes it difficult for ppl to put you down.
I very much love both of Lucario's builds, ESpeed and Bone Rush is good for getting strong team wipes thanks to ESpeed's reset, and PuP + Close Combat is super good for clearing objectives and taking down tankier Pokemon Overall, I'm so very happy with Lucario in this game, my favorite character of all time gets so much love here and I couldn't be happier
To me, the only other build that's more fun than the extreme speed combo, is Talonflame brave bird. But as far as movesets that aren't as popular, I still love solar beam Venusaur. Even though that darn sniper bird makes it useless.
@@Hawk.123 Yeah Giga Dance is definitely the better build. I just like shooting people in their backs as they try and run lol. Decidueye is good, but hard to use for me. Gotta have great aim.
QOTD: I like to use Eldegoss with the item build of muscle band, special attack specs, and score shield with a full heal for cc protection. Stacking with this build will not only boost the damage of its moves like leaf tornado, but it also increases the healing off of pollen puff and cotton guard. If you like to use stacking items, give this one a shot as it's pretty fun.
Hey Jake! I've a question - when you mess up by accident, like with the walled extreme speed @7:00 , how do you remain so humble and calm? How did you learn to take the game so easily? Part of what makes you so likable as a creator is your fun, laidback attitude. I want to keep enjoying Unite but my explosive temper... Sigh
You've got to remember that, at the end of the day, even if it's a ranked match, this is just a game. Games are meant to be played and have fun. You don't have to perform perfectly every match because this is not a job. It can definitely get frustrating, specially because this game depends on team synergy, but try to enjoy the grind. Instead of getting angry at your mistakes, just laugh and learn from them. I know this is easier said than done, but the attitude change will be worth it as you'll be able to improve while still enjoying (most of) your matches.
@@ChamAramis You're not wrong, but "it's just a game" is a very unsatisfying answer to me. Knowing intellectually that I shoudn't get tilted over a game never once stops it from happening to me.

This is a great video idea, because Extreme Speed (and the baton throwing one) seem really tricky to use effectively. It often feels like "How am I supposed to be awesome by way of teleporting"
I have mained Lucario for months and I have loved Extreme Speed from the beginning. I have never been much of a fan of Power-Up Punch, personally. There was a short period recently when I tried PUP, but I eventually went back to ESpeed. I also played Bone Rush for a long time and I thought it was great. When Close Combat got buffed to have a lot of lifesteal, I tried it and I was hooked! Now I am personally disappointed any time I accidentally pick Bone Rush at level 7. So I am not sure if it counts as off meta, but I play Lucario with Extreme Speed and Close Combat. I have tried probably every reasonable held item on Lucario and I found running Buddy Barrier as the third item has felt the best (Score Shield and Attack Weight in slots 1 and 2). Unfortunately, Lucario's Unite Move is a tad underwhelming . So I feel that Buddy Barrier helps me make a bigger impact with my Unite Move in team fights.
This was how I was around when CC got healing buff. Used to pull some big healing number with ESpeed CC. Now I just go PUP; don’t know exactly when I changed or why, but I just prefer it’s secure for objectives. I also run buddy barrier, but I don’t use score shield. I feel like I get more out of two damage items and buddy for the end game fight
I think the thing with E-Speed and Bone Rush is that potentially, you can deal more damage than with E-Speed and CC, but it comes with the risk that you may miss one hit and lose the reset. CC on the other hand is usually a sure hit and deald pretty decent damage.
@@MakingToys Honestly I feel like it's just way funner to play too. It feels like too much stress to hard focus on hitting bonerush combos all the time or else you mess up and die.
QOTD: I still hold an insane amount of love for Grassy Glide / Triple Axel Tsareena. It was nerfed into the ground compared to its Stomp set, but it still feels so fluid in terms of movement and playstyle.
I really really love your builds the build you give for ALOLAN NINETAILS with the held items scoop lens and musle band was soo good!! Thank you so much 💕💕
I run PetalDance Venu with Muscle Band, Choice Specs, and Wise Glasses. The sheer damage is insane as you can constantly be using auto attacks and getting muscle band procs, and giga drain gets a low cooldown off of Petal Dance to be proccing the Choice Specs passive quite often. More Special Attack means more healing as well, so you entire a pseudo-tank state that trades part of Buddy Barrier's protection for a much higher damage output. Been running this for a very long time and have never had a bad result. Also makes early lane a breeze if you can combo with some good CC and/or damage.
Pre-13 my Lucario combo would be ESpeed > Bone Rush > ES > ES(only if necessary or escaping)/Reactivate BR, After 13 it would now be ES > Bone Rush > ES > Reactivate BR > ES > ES(only if necessary or escaping). On the last part you could also cast your Unite Move to gain another reset of ESpeed. Hope this helps people those who want get the most out of this Lucario moveset. For QotD: On Lucario my favorite build is ESpeed + Close Combat. Aside from sentimental value (it's the moves I used when playing Gen 4), ES+ increases your damage on cast so going in on ES > CC will give you maximum damage on your CC. However it also makes CC easier to dodge compared to PuP + CC.
I used to play that build a lot too. Mainly before the heal nerf on CC. Healing between the two was insane! Now I just prefer to finish people off with PUP
@@mr_clean575 yeah it's pretty good at securing KOs but there are instances where I run out of extreme speed and end up getting killed if close combat doesn't work
Q.O.T.D I like using greninja smoke screen + surf build typical I see a lot of water shurikan + double team builds but I really like using smoke screen because you can suprise your enemies and its a good escape option. i also like using these items attack weight score shield buddy barrier
Ayy some espeed content Edit: I know you said this in the video, but I would recommend to drop score shield and add something like a muscle or focus band because you're supposedly to score small amounts of points which would also help you get those stacks! Keep making awesome content spragels!
True. Muscle imo is superior to razor claw. It helps you to not only fight for objectives but also helps you to clear your camps fast. Razor claw is optimal, i prefer weakness policy cuz it helps with bulk and some extra damage in team fights but razor can also work but you need to be constant with stacks if you want to take the full advantage of it.
Durulodon. Drain crown, attack weight, scope lense. 6 browns, 2 blues/ 2greens, or 2 blues and 2 whites, or 4 blues( maintaing hp & deff.)/ 4 greens ( maintaining spc att.). For dragon pulse build. This build allows you to heal on the move during Lvling up or in-between & during fights. Instead of returning to pads to heal. Solo play hp and deff is more important but if you have a beefy friend to tag team with maintaining positive att. & spc att. Yields better ko ability. I also use x att. To give me that boots to paint my targets faster/ with this in mind 3 reds might also be a viable option but since I don't use muscle band anymore I maintain positive att, spc att, hp and crit rate with my emblems
My favourite mon/my main is lucario actually. Quite fun to play and quite dominating if played right, but if you mess up then you can fall in a tight spot. I usually go for attack weight, muscle band(helps a lot with clearing camps and with objectives) and weakness policy or razor claw(switch between them, prefer weakness policy as it helps with bulk and a decent attack boost in team fights). Love your videos as always! ♥️ Edit- I use Extreme speed and Bone rush.
@@shashikantrane1676 sadly luca in this meta isnt very effective as it used to be back in the days even with may buffs, it isnt worth to play it, let alone play espeed. if u must then PuP and CC is the best build to burst down before u get auto'ed by a mega m2y in 2sec :).
@@indorockz9669 lol 😂 mew2y is the reason i use e-speed luca as it can deal tons of damage with the combo and can also escape mew2y with bone and e-speed by using wild pokemon to refresh e-speed meanwhile PuP and CC luca cant escape such threats that is why i use luca e-speed
In regards to your question about builds I love running flail block snor with x speed and the tank item setup of buddy barrier, score shield and focus band. It's quite enjoyable to be scary in terms of damage while also being able to make some nasty block plays with x speed, blocking people from stealing zap by being able to wall off the east entrance is amazing
I play Tsareena/Gardevoir alot .And my build for tsareena is Muscle band,Weakness policy,Aeos cookie. And my build for gardevoir is Focus band,Leftovers,and Aeos cookie.My strats for tsareena is do a lot of damage and tank a lot,And my build for Gardevoir is a squishy mon and my deal is to have a lot of health to survive and support teams.
I mainly use lucario with items like float stone, score shield and attack weight. This build is not rather used by much people but it is worth trying it.
Use attack weight muscle razor claw.. Use unite to run away .. Use micro dozes of aeos energy for stack Don't be hungry for stacks No need for full stacks all the matches 3 will work too
Thank you for the informative video, Jake! QOTD: Rollout wiggly is probably my favorite off-meta build, although hydro pump-surf Blastoise would be a close 2nd
As lucario is my favorite pokemon, I am a lucario main myself, I started out loving to use extreme speed and bone rush and I currently use your power up punch build and like it a lot, and I have a ton of fun using the high damage cinderace build as well, I’m definitely gonna try out this build!
you could maybe do tutorial on how to zap fight. most of my teammates understand that it's important to have unite up at zap, but have no concept of positioning, showing up before zap appears, how to navigate the final fight, or even when to use their unite. love your content yeehaw
I absolutely love my Trevenant Pain Split/Curse. The build for it is Attack Weight, Weakness Policy, Muscle Band. Definitely not the popular set up but it is so much fun throwing people into death matches. Not always but when it does pop off it is one of my favorite Pokémon to play.
Awesome video ill like see more content like this were you actually explain what skills do or how to short cooldown or just mecanics in general im still new in pokemon and like see videos where it goes into full detail how to maxize the build and skills to the fullest
Rock tomb crustle is one of my favorite non standard builds. Trapping an opponent to have your carry catch them before they can retreat is just too good a feeling
QOTD: Even though it got nerfed Discharge Zera still has a place in my heart for my first ever Pentakill. The one thing I like about it is that unlike the SparkCharge set which is more of a make or break set the DischargeSwitch set can give you a chance to escape if the situation has gone bad. In the current state of the meta its pretty decent, can still score some nice Quadras but not as good as PreNerf discharge.
For me I love ground chomp and hex gengar instead of their primary builds. With hex gengar if you actually wait and play more of a time focused attack you can easily team wipe. I find it far better for zap end game.
This is just perfect. I'm actually thinking about picking up Lucario, since the pokemon I usually play with usually have a rough laning phase, so I thought, if everyone on my team are pokemon mediocre at laning (especially if we have something like Cinder/Gre/Decidueye altogether), I think I should pick a melee lane monster, i.e., someone who can tank AND dominate the lane (as oppose to, say, Charmander, my usual pick). *QotV:* Hmm, does Outrage Dragonite count? Hyper Beam is pretty much the way to go due to the objective secure, but I always kinda prefer Outrage over Hyper Beam, maybe due to me playing all these bruiser/brawler pokemon. I just wish Dragonite's Extreme Speed would get a lower cooldown. As it stands it's still pretty easy to get away from an Outrage Dragonite.
I play two off-meta build that i very enjoy them.: Ninetales Bilzzard, dazzling gleam (choice spec, score shield, buddy barrier) crustle rock tomb X scizor (muscle band, float stone, focus band with x speed)
Mammo with Attack Weight, Score Sheild, and Razor Claw. Using Smoke Screen, just get those fast stacks and stick with the Frost Fang combo. It's nasty, course Full Heal and Blissey can counter.
QOTD: I prefer playing HexBomb Gengar, even though the meta currently is DreamBall, it just got more DPS potential (good for soloing objectives bc your team never shows up anyway) and mobility, also the early ganks are just insane
i love playing Ice Fang Mamo even though people argue that Icicle Crash is better. i’m inclined to agree in terms of damage and team fight value, but Ice Fang is just such an effective move for isolating a squishy and it is especially brutal in the early game while you’re still in path. i love Ice Fang
I love muscle, special specs, score shield on trick Hoopa. Building up the special attack makes the trick shield huge making it easier to score, and the extra damage from shadow ball is nice
Answer for the question of the day: When I was a Venusaur main back then, I used 'sludge petal' because of the fact I wanted Venusaur to have moves for both its types. When I was also a Blastoise main, I used 'Hydro Spin' because I didn't know how to use Spout Spin. Finally, when Tsareena came out, I used 'Triple Kick' but then switched to Triple Glide after realizing how good it was. I mainly use meta movesets now, so I have no more.
I actually don't think Sludge Bomb + Petal Dance is that bad on Venusaur. You're a lot less tanky, but it only takes a few seconds to bombard the whole battle field with lingering poison AoEs. It's pretty crazy AoE control-wise.
As far as uncommon builds, I’ve been running X Attack Talonflame with Razor, Muscle, and Buddy a lot. It’s probably overkill to be honest cause the score shield escape button build still one-shots most squishies but I like being able to pop x attack and get one-shots on mons that I probably shouldn’t like Luc and Tsareena. Oh yeah, I just remembered I even ran into you while playing this the other day, gg.
I use volt tackle and electroball Pikachu. It's not as useful in team fights as the thunder thunderbolt set, but it is extremely satisfying to see an opponent with low health try and run away from the electro Ball and fail because that ball follows people forever
Run charizard with fire punch fire blast. Fire punch hits harder than flamethrower in impact damage with a knock up and provides dash mobility. Scope lens, buddy barrier, muscle band. About 200 matches with a over 70% win rate.
QOTD: I really like to play Extreme Speed, Close Combat, and Slow Smoke with Lucario. It's not as good as Bone Rush since Bone Rush synergizes so well with Extreme Speed(especially since the nerf), but boy is it fun. It sets up team fights really well if you catch someone approaching while hiding in a bush, and it allows for some crazy sustain with the Close Combat healing. You can also clear Pokemon pretty fast with close combat.
For your question, it is Charizard with 2 Fire Build (Fire Punch and Fire Blast). Depends on the situation: 1. I will cast Fire Blast, then Fire Punch my opponent into the Fire Blast. 2. Use Fire Punch first, then cast Fire Blast. 3. If being chased, I use Fire Punch for retreat and Fire Blast to my opponents to slow them down.
Here’s a couple of unpopular I’ve used in my game. Cross Chop + Submission Machamp, though I’m starting to like both builds Ice Fangs Mamoswine Triple Axle Tsareena Water Shuriken + Double Team Greninja And Discharge + Volt Switch Zeraora
QOTD: I run Aurora Veil/Avalanche Ninetales. I know DG stuns, but I prefer the possible freeze as well as the further area control and enemy catching that can come with a well placed Avalanche.
Build I use that’s not considered “meta”? Energy amp, buddy barrier score shield talon. Easily get 200-400 points a match, and still at almost every teamfight. You do lose some damage, but points are most important. Other one is Pika, choice specs, energy amp, buddy barrier, with electro ball and either other move. I think I may try azu with amp too.
Petal dance sludge bomb with potion is super fun to me. You just run around dropping poison after poison after poison. It is terrible but SUUUUIPER funny 🤣
I play Garchomp with Dragon Rush and Earthquake instead of the typical dragon build or ground build. Ever since they nerfed Dragon Claw to not give you an attack speed boost, I have found that Earthquake generates stacks faster, scales better with the attack stat, gives you better AOE damage in a team fight and also doesn’t feel as bad when someone ejects out of your dragon combo.
It's because it a dead build. What you get with Fire Punch and Flare Blitz is literally what you get with Flame Thrower and Fire Blast. Many will tell you that Flamethrower and Fire Blast is the meta build. The CD on Flare is not warranted when the shield is non existent in most cases and can be CCed out so you cant get the full benefit. Fire Punch is bad since it puts you in range of a lot of danger AND does not burn multiple at once. The movement from the other build is also important. Then again if you can aim them. FB and FP need buffs on Charizard realistically. It's just an inferior build. Given the stance of the game, going into melee with many character is NOT a good idea. Despite this run what works for you though Flamethrower and Fire Blast is the better build arguably.
@@manuelarocho8131 Not sure if it's just me but I feel like there a quick moment where enemies are stunned with both that allow me turn the scrimmage around. Also allows me to keep with them there running away.
This was a great showcase of how to use Extreme Speed Lucario. I was using close combat with this when the move is to use Bone Rush. Also, love that surrender vote at the end. “We didn’t deserve this win guys, let’s pack it up with 10 secs to go.”
Sometimes I'll mess around with an x speed belch/stuff cheeks greedent. Not sure which items work best on it, yet. Atk weight is always slot 1 and honestly any 2 picked from score shield, buddy barrier, focus band, muscle band or razor claw seeming to work well. I like the ability to throw stuff cheeks for an instant 2x belch or the option to more effectively provide heals. I find that the little speedup from stuff cheeks+x speed allows me to stay pretty elusive in the absence of covet.
QOTD: I prefer Bullet Seed-Stuff Cheeks (Machine Gun Greedent) to Shotgun Greedent with Aeos Cookies/Attack Weight and sometimes Egg Bomb Blissey for fun and decent damage. Besides, Solarbeam Venusaur and Blizzard Ninetailes also really fun but these sets are prefered quite a bit comparing my Blissey and Greedent set.
I loved to use Pyro Ball and Feint on Cinderace and the items I would use were (Attack weight, Buddy barrier and Muscle band) it really wasn't the best build but when you get fully stacked and don't die too quickly you do a lot of damage where to the point I can destroy a Crustle even with it's unite move
I like using cross chop on machamp, close combat is popular as of now but for me i love the dash and the late game stacks on machamp which dealt insane damage on its basic attacks.
Tsareena with any dash (depends on the day and what I feel to play), triple axel and buddy barrier, focus band and weakness policy. I just start spinning and healing so much I can stay in a TF for a long time, and usually I end up with the higher recovery from my team
I have a crazy build for zeraora.I tried it .It is crazy with volt switch and discharge.float stone,weakness policy and score shield.I got 292 in a ranked match.I am a master class player
For Decidueye, I like using muscle band (30), razor claw (30), and float stone (29) and I use Spirit Shackle/Shadow Sneak. I don’t know why I upgraded float stone that much LOL but I like it
I play icicle crash Mamoswine. It is just more fun and better secure for objective to me. Using it with high horsepower (even before the buff) is always a fun combo for me with the cc.
QOTD: Rollout wiggly. Bottom lane I can’t help it because it’s so bloody funny to bounce between the rock and wall and stun lock people to death. People will always fall for it at least once and most for what ever reason don’t learn and I can do it several times.

Edit: I know you said this in the video, but I would recommend to drop score shield and add something like a muscle or focus band because you're supposedly to score small amounts of points which would also help you get those stacks! Keep making awesome content spragels!
True. Muscle imo is superior to razor claw. It helps you to not only fight for objectives but also helps you to clear your camps fast. Razor claw is optimal, i prefer weakness policy cuz it helps with bulk and some extra damage in team fights but razor can also work but you need to be constant with stacks if you want to take the full advantage of it.
@@indorockz9669 I prefer atk weight, muscle, weakness policy(og's build).
@@nivinshibu6459 same bro
Durulodon. Drain crown, attack weight, scope lense. 6 browns, 2 blues/ 2greens, or 2 blues and 2 whites, or 4 blues( maintaing hp & deff.)/ 4 greens ( maintaining spc att.). For dragon pulse build. This build allows you to heal on the move during Lvling up or in-between & during fights. Instead of returning to pads to heal. Solo play hp and deff is more important but if you have a beefy friend to tag team with maintaining positive att. & spc att. Yields better ko ability. I also use x att. To give me that boots to paint my targets faster/ with this in mind 3 reds might also be a viable option but since I don't use muscle band anymore I maintain positive att, spc att, hp and crit rate with my emblems
My favourite mon/my main is lucario actually. Quite fun to play and quite dominating if played right, but if you mess up then you can fall in a tight spot. I usually go for attack weight, muscle band(helps a lot with clearing camps and with objectives) and weakness policy or razor claw(switch between them, prefer weakness policy as it helps with bulk and a decent attack boost in team fights). Love your videos as always! ♥️
Edit- I use Extreme speed and Bone rush.
🤜🤛 me too
I use Muscle band, attack weight and score shield is this a good build ? and yes it is a e-speed build
@@shashikantrane1676 sadly luca in this meta isnt very effective as it used to be back in the days even with may buffs, it isnt worth to play it, let alone play espeed. if u must then PuP and CC is the best build to burst down before u get auto'ed by a mega m2y in 2sec :).
@@indorockz9669 lol 😂 mew2y is the reason i use e-speed luca as it can deal tons of damage with the combo and can also escape mew2y with bone and e-speed by using wild pokemon to refresh e-speed meanwhile PuP and CC luca cant escape such threats that is why i use luca e-speed
You are the reason I love power, close combat so much, it's too much fun to play
In regards to your question about builds I love running flail block snor with x speed and the tank item setup of buddy barrier, score shield and focus band. It's quite enjoyable to be scary in terms of damage while also being able to make some nasty block plays with x speed, blocking people from stealing zap by being able to wall off the east entrance is amazing
I like feint on cinder bunny. I here a lot about flame charge, but I love being immune to an opponents move.
I'm still trying to learn Lucario but so far I'm really having fun with him!!
Charzard with fire punch and flare blitz I love it
I play Tsareena/Gardevoir alot .And my build for tsareena is Muscle band,Weakness policy,Aeos cookie. And my build for gardevoir is Focus band,Leftovers,and Aeos cookie.My strats for tsareena is do a lot of damage and tank a lot,And my build for Gardevoir is a squishy mon and my deal is to have a lot of health to survive and support teams.
I mainly use lucario with items like float stone, score shield and attack weight. This build is not rather used by much people but it is worth trying it.
Enemies Jungle invading build?
I don't want lucario to be mean😂(kidding)
Use attack weight muscle razor claw.. Use unite to run away ..
Use micro dozes of aeos energy for stack
Don't be hungry for stacks
No need for full stacks all the matches 3 will work too
I'm a big sucker for grab and throw abilities so I absolutely love Ice Fang Mamoswine! Albeit slow, Earthquake is still really fun to play as well
I was looking for this on your channel Juss yesterday. TY 🙏
Another great video as usual! Thanks for the content
Thank you for the informative video, Jake! QOTD: Rollout wiggly is probably my favorite off-meta build, although hydro pump-surf Blastoise would be a close 2nd
As lucario is my favorite pokemon, I am a lucario main myself, I started out loving to use extreme speed and bone rush and I currently use your power up punch build and like it a lot, and I have a ton of fun using the high damage cinderace build as well, I’m definitely gonna try out this build!
you could maybe do tutorial on how to zap fight. most of my teammates understand that it's important to have unite up at zap, but have no concept of positioning, showing up before zap appears, how to navigate the final fight, or even when to use their unite.
love your content yeehaw
I love every Lucario's holowear but I don't even have the cheapest one. I'm jealooous!!! :( Well played Jake, btw. I'm also a power-up punch guy.
I absolutely love my Trevenant Pain Split/Curse. The build for it is Attack Weight, Weakness Policy, Muscle Band.
Definitely not the popular set up but it is so much fun throwing people into death matches. Not always but when it does pop off it is one of my favorite Pokémon to play.
I love playing shadow claw on the funny sword while stacking attack weight
Awesome video ill like see more content like this were you actually explain what skills do or how to short cooldown or just mecanics in general im still new in pokemon and like see videos where it goes into full detail how to maxize the build and skills to the fullest
I use Extreme speed + Close combat, Close combat for heal, securing objectives and hitting multiple enemies
What build should i use with power up punch and bone rush? I hope you reply
Attack weight, score shield, Focus/Buddy
@@spragels o u replied 😱 love u and your vid yeeeehawww♥️♥️♥️♥️

@@nivinshibu6459 o o scaryy😳
@@shehroz_ lol😂
Rock tomb crustle is one of my favorite non standard builds. Trapping an opponent to have your carry catch them before they can retreat is just too good a feeling
QOTD: Even though it got nerfed Discharge Zera still has a place in my heart for my first ever Pentakill. The one thing I like about it is that unlike the SparkCharge set which is more of a make or break set the DischargeSwitch set can give you a chance to escape if the situation has gone bad. In the current state of the meta its pretty decent, can still score some nice Quadras but not as good as PreNerf discharge.
My first penta was brave bird talon.
For me I love ground chomp and hex gengar instead of their primary builds. With hex gengar if you actually wait and play more of a time focused attack you can easily team wipe. I find it far better for zap end game.
yeah it's alot more professional imo, also quite a counter to an enemy gengar using the dream eater build xd.
This is just perfect. I'm actually thinking about picking up Lucario, since the pokemon I usually play with usually have a rough laning phase, so I thought, if everyone on my team are pokemon mediocre at laning (especially if we have something like Cinder/Gre/Decidueye altogether), I think I should pick a melee lane monster, i.e., someone who can tank AND dominate the lane (as oppose to, say, Charmander, my usual pick).
*QotV:* Hmm, does Outrage Dragonite count? Hyper Beam is pretty much the way to go due to the objective secure, but I always kinda prefer Outrage over Hyper Beam, maybe due to me playing all these bruiser/brawler pokemon. I just wish Dragonite's Extreme Speed would get a lower cooldown. As it stands it's still pretty easy to get away from an Outrage Dragonite.
10:56 that's called the Troll Surrender.
I play two off-meta build that i very enjoy them.:
Ninetales Bilzzard, dazzling gleam (choice spec, score shield, buddy barrier)
crustle rock tomb X scizor (muscle band, float stone, focus band with x speed)
Mammo with Attack Weight, Score Sheild, and Razor Claw. Using Smoke Screen, just get those fast stacks and stick with the Frost Fang combo. It's nasty, course Full Heal and Blissey can counter.
QOTD: I prefer playing HexBomb Gengar, even though the meta currently is DreamBall, it just got more DPS potential (good for soloing objectives bc your team never shows up anyway) and mobility, also the early ganks are just insane
i love playing Ice Fang Mamo even though people argue that Icicle Crash is better. i’m inclined to agree in terms of damage and team fight value, but Ice Fang is just such an effective move for isolating a squishy and it is especially brutal in the early game while you’re still in path. i love Ice Fang
yaaay you made a video for it! thanks man, gonna sit down with my cuppa tea now and take in all the learning i can get!
I love muscle, special specs, score shield on trick Hoopa. Building up the special attack makes the trick shield huge making it easier to score, and the extra damage from shadow ball is nice
I love using ofensive blissey (muscle band - scope lends - razor claw). Of course, I use helping hand and safeguard
Answer for the question of the day:
When I was a Venusaur main back then, I used 'sludge petal' because of the fact I wanted Venusaur to have moves for both its types.
When I was also a Blastoise main, I used 'Hydro Spin' because I didn't know how to use Spout Spin.
Finally, when Tsareena came out, I used 'Triple Kick' but then switched to Triple Glide after realizing how good it was.
I mainly use meta movesets now, so I have no more.
Uh Tsareena has Grassy Glide and Trop Kick
I actually don't think Sludge Bomb + Petal Dance is that bad on Venusaur. You're a lot less tanky, but it only takes a few seconds to bombard the whole battle field with lingering poison AoEs. It's pretty crazy AoE control-wise.
Thank you for the video on my main
My favorite uncommon build is double team water shuriken greninja and im pretty good with him
I never use score shield for stack Lucario, cuz you can score 4 to 5 points without any big issues
As far as uncommon builds, I’ve been running X Attack Talonflame with Razor, Muscle, and Buddy a lot. It’s probably overkill to be honest cause the score shield escape button build still one-shots most squishies but I like being able to pop x attack and get one-shots on mons that I probably shouldn’t like Luc and Tsareena.
Oh yeah, I just remembered I even ran into you while playing this the other day, gg.
I use volt tackle and electroball Pikachu. It's not as useful in team fights as the thunder thunderbolt set, but it is extremely satisfying to see an opponent with low health try and run away from the electro Ball and fail because that ball follows people forever
Run charizard with fire punch fire blast. Fire punch hits harder than flamethrower in impact damage with a knock up and provides dash mobility. Scope lens, buddy barrier, muscle band. About 200 matches with a over 70% win rate.
I like running attack weight, razor claw and scope lens on absol in the lane with night slash and sucker punch
QOTD: I really like to play Extreme Speed, Close Combat, and Slow Smoke with Lucario. It's not as good as Bone Rush since Bone Rush synergizes so well with Extreme Speed(especially since the nerf), but boy is it fun. It sets up team fights really well if you catch someone approaching while hiding in a bush, and it allows for some crazy sustain with the Close Combat healing. You can also clear Pokemon pretty fast with close combat.
For your question, it is Charizard with 2 Fire Build (Fire Punch and Fire Blast). Depends on the situation:
1. I will cast Fire Blast, then Fire Punch my opponent into the Fire Blast.
2. Use Fire Punch first, then cast Fire Blast.
3. If being chased, I use Fire Punch for retreat and Fire Blast to my opponents to slow them down.
QOTD: I use the sludge hex Gengar while most of the ppl use the shadow eater build
Yes it is better
Here’s a couple of unpopular I’ve used in my game.
Cross Chop + Submission Machamp, though I’m starting to like both builds
Ice Fangs Mamoswine
Triple Axle Tsareena
Water Shuriken + Double Team Greninja
And Discharge + Volt Switch Zeraora
QOTD: I run Aurora Veil/Avalanche Ninetales. I know DG stuns, but I prefer the possible freeze as well as the further area control and enemy catching that can come with a well placed Avalanche.
10:55 the confusion! haha
I do play Lucario with XtremeSpeed and CloseCounter. Items: ScoreShield, Focus band and attack weight. Loves it!
Build I use that’s not considered “meta”? Energy amp, buddy barrier score shield talon. Easily get 200-400 points a match, and still at almost every teamfight. You do lose some damage, but points are most important.
Other one is Pika, choice specs, energy amp, buddy barrier, with electro ball and either other move. I think I may try azu with amp too.
Petal dance sludge bomb with potion is super fun to me. You just run around dropping poison after poison after poison. It is terrible but SUUUUIPER funny 🤣
For items, the basic building of buddy, muscle and focus for surviving and stunning enemies with basics
I actually never knew the whole exspeed an bone rush reset an blue circles so thank you!!
I play Garchomp with Dragon Rush and Earthquake instead of the typical dragon build or ground build.
Ever since they nerfed Dragon Claw to not give you an attack speed boost, I have found that Earthquake generates stacks faster, scales better with the attack stat, gives you better AOE damage in a team fight and also doesn’t feel as bad when someone ejects out of your dragon combo.
I run charizard with flame punch and flare blitz. Don't really see a lot of people run it. It's very aggressive and fun.
It's because it a dead build. What you get with Fire Punch and Flare Blitz is literally what you get with Flame Thrower and Fire Blast. Many will tell you that Flamethrower and Fire Blast is the meta build. The CD on Flare is not warranted when the shield is non existent in most cases and can be CCed out so you cant get the full benefit. Fire Punch is bad since it puts you in range of a lot of danger AND does not burn multiple at once. The movement from the other build is also important. Then again if you can aim them.
FB and FP need buffs on Charizard realistically. It's just an inferior build. Given the stance of the game, going into melee with many character is NOT a good idea.
Despite this run what works for you though Flamethrower and Fire Blast is the better build arguably.
@@manuelarocho8131 Not sure if it's just me but I feel like there a quick moment where enemies are stunned with both that allow me turn the scrimmage around. Also allows me to keep with them there running away.
i am requesting you to pls make a video on snorlax with flail build
Garchomp or Eldegoss where I run rushclaw on Garchomp and pollen puff cotton spore one eldegoss. I also play hex sludge bomb Gengar.
This was a great showcase of how to use Extreme Speed Lucario. I was using close combat with this when the move is to use Bone Rush.
Also, love that surrender vote at the end. “We didn’t deserve this win guys, let’s pack it up with 10 secs to go.”
Sometimes I'll mess around with an x speed belch/stuff cheeks greedent. Not sure which items work best on it, yet. Atk weight is always slot 1 and honestly any 2 picked from score shield, buddy barrier, focus band, muscle band or razor claw seeming to work well. I like the ability to throw stuff cheeks for an instant 2x belch or the option to more effectively provide heals. I find that the little speedup from stuff cheeks+x speed allows me to stay pretty elusive in the absence of covet.
Greedent with cookie, weight and score shield is super fun with the bullet seed and whatever other move
You should do a hollowwear tier vid lol i love this lucario skin myself, totally S tier but soooo expensive
Defnitely loving Sniper venu lately, especially since shackle decidueye is good now to get the double sniper duo on 1 team!
QOTD: Gengar with triple glasses because I never found much benefits from buddy barrier and focus band.
Yes me too
Every time i hear "THATS A STACK" it brings me joy lmao
QOTD: I prefer Bullet Seed-Stuff Cheeks (Machine Gun Greedent) to Shotgun Greedent with Aeos Cookies/Attack Weight and sometimes Egg Bomb Blissey for fun and decent damage.
Besides, Solarbeam Venusaur and Blizzard Ninetailes also really fun but these sets are prefered quite a bit comparing my Blissey and Greedent set.
I just got lucario this is perfect ty
I loved to use Pyro Ball and Feint on Cinderace and the items I would use were (Attack weight, Buddy barrier and Muscle band) it really wasn't the best build but when you get fully stacked and don't die too quickly you do a lot of damage where to the point I can destroy a Crustle even with it's unite move
I like using cross chop on machamp, close combat is popular as of now but for me i love the dash and the late game stacks on machamp which dealt insane damage on its basic attacks.
I’m liking flail snorlax atm^^ flail+block, attack weight, weakness policy and muscle band. Basically playing him like a bruiser/warrior.
Tsareena with any dash (depends on the day and what I feel to play), triple axel and buddy barrier, focus band and weakness policy. I just start spinning and healing so much I can stay in a TF for a long time, and usually I end up with the higher recovery from my team
I have a crazy build for zeraora.I tried it .It is crazy with volt switch and discharge.float stone,weakness policy and score shield.I got 292 in a ranked match.I am a master class player
For Decidueye, I like using muscle band (30), razor claw (30), and float stone (29) and I use Spirit Shackle/Shadow Sneak. I don’t know why I upgraded float stone that much LOL but I like it
Love Machamp submission
I play icicle crash Mamoswine. It is just more fun and better secure for objective to me. Using it with high horsepower (even before the buff) is always a fun combo for me with the cc.
One of my favourite moveset for Lucario is Extreme speed and Bone Rush
Extreme speed for mobility
And Bone rush for dmg and teleport to the bone
I don’t watch you a lot but like only for builds but I like when you score it says that’s a stack XD
That was straight destruction
QOTD: Rollout wiggly. Bottom lane I can’t help it because it’s so bloody funny to bounce between the rock and wall and stun lock people to death. People will always fall for it at least once and most for what ever reason don’t learn and I can do it several times.
To me I like using Slowbro double glasses shellbell build with surf build to use surf then stun the enemy to get easy loads of damage
