      ​@OtherL It doesn't at a surface level, but Wolfey is known for understanding the metagame very well to the point of bring teams that can completely upend them. This knowledge and suprise factor from wolfey is enough to win some sets alone.
      To this end he has talked about people hacking his personal date, social media included just for a chance of getting access to his insight and or teams. There was a recent tournament where wolfey had a phenomenal under the radar team that matched well against popular teams going into that year's national tournament but a team leak just days before left the format in such a panic that a good chunk of the competition adjusted their teams specifically to counter his or jusr outright stole his team for the tournament

      The two are very important for Pokémon, FSG is responsible for introducing so many people into competitive Pokémon, while Wolfey is quite impressive, to say the least. It's funny to think that Wolfey's Vaporeon with the move Celebrate made it into one of FSG's documentaries because everyone just accepted it was a legitimate strategy. Not only did he troll FSG, he trolled that whole tournament and the entire VGC community. The man is undisputably, a legend.

    You should also remember that Wolfe basically shaped multiple competitive metas. Bro literally caused a perish trap meta after his team got LEAKED. Honestly, disregarding the placements he has achieved, I think that is one of the most defining events for him and also great proof of him being “the best” Pokémon competitor.
    Edit: he also is so creative when creating teams on showdown that I can’t help but be impressed sometimes.

      ⁠@@SCARawpeople are still talking about that raichu? You understand that even a perfect Pokémon is worthless if you don’t know how to use it right? The only edge that thing gave him is that it had unique utility to help his team counter the meta. Plus, it wasn’t even an offensive mon, so he likely could’ve gotten similar utility with even a 3-4 IV one. Regardless of how he got it, at the end of the day, you can’t hack skill.
      Plus unlike publisify, Wolfe has actually done a lot to give back to the community, wtf has your furry god complex done other than paw his own ego?

    Great video. I’m a Pokémon boomer, I cut my teeth on Pokémon blue, dominating the playground in elementary school in the late 90s. I actually didn’t know until this video that Wolfe and I shared our hometown, I’m also from those same Virginia suburbs of DC and almost entered that same regional only to decide against it as I had to focus on moving preparations. I found Wolfe through Alpharad in recent years and his analysis and talent reinvigorated my love for the franchise.
    Right now, my childhood Pokémon card collection is putting me through university. Maybe if I was a little younger I could have been a VGC competitor in my own right, but in my advanced age I’ll be content in cheering the hometown hero on.
    As for you, you earned a subscription. Loved this video, most poketubers are pretty bland but you have a genuine talent for storytelling. Great work.

    I started playing VGC in 2015 when i was 17, but didnt have the same knack for it and stopped a year later, preferring solo challenges like nuzlockes. Its always crazy for me to think that if i had committed to it harder i couldve had the chance to be stomped by Wolfey on his way up to the top. I was an early subscriber of his and have always loved his content.

    I wish Wolfe good luck for hopefully winning next year worlds...again.

    I'm just so proud of how far Wolfe has come with his content. I've been subbed to him since 2016 and have consistently been a fan of his videos. It has been amazing watching him go from unedited videos where he just rambled while making tier lists (still very enjoyable) to branching out and collaborating with other creators, and then completely overhauling his content into refined, highly edited, and ambitious projects. He's a competitive and highly technical person, yet at the same time he never takes himself too seriously and isn't afraid to just have fun with things, and I've always enjoyed that about him.
