- Oh Pokemon Showdown.... I was just chillin with the OU chat, and someone decided to satisfy their own ego and link one of their live battles, I decide to watch the battle and figured the result was worth uploading, I hope you guys enjoy the video! Never be a sore winner especially this low on the ladder lmao. Also, don't flame me for using a stall team, it's a new archetype I like to call stall offense or fake stall.

After watching this video, I had to Fireblast a Ferrothorn on a switch in to feel something again.

I predicted a Venusaur switch in and OHKO-ed it with ice beam. The opponent forfeited next turn.
The best feeling ever for me was when i earthquaked on a soar mitt predicting a gent at switch. They had rocks and spikes up
"GOD I SUCK"
"good battle"
"yes"
god, that hurt even me damn throwing serious shade
“Good battle”
“ *Y E S* “
Goddess Carrie that “yes” had serious weight behind it, he didn’t trash talk the whole battle, he let the opponent beat themselves up, question the Smogon teachings, then when there is a final cry for help “GOD I SUCK” they deliver the single weightiest word on pokemon showdown “yes”, confirming fears and taking names, truly artful mind games
@@megaagentj2248 yes
@@Blade.5786 Y E S
Why was "good battle" "yes" said with a French accent tho 😭
I think what I love about this is that the Talonflame guy clearly knows what he's doing. He's got coverage, trades well, knows how to hand large threats. Bu also has like no idea the meta has changed. Meanwhile, Rosaura is all up to date on Smogon sets, but has no fucking clue how to actually use them or WHY they exist. It's like a perfect juxtaposition between the good kind of noob and the bad kind
On the surface, Toshi looks like a new player, but in the battle he know how to use Pixilate, makes predictions and wins with casual pokemon.
And let's be honest this Rosaura person barely even knew what was going on lmao.
I mean, he is just as bad, he used psychic instead of hyper voice against tapu koko for absolutely no reason and basically threw pikachu away, not to mention blizzard instead of ice beam on greninja and stone edge instead of rock tomb on breloom, don't mistake smashing random buttons and getting lucky with 50/50 as skill.
@@aurifomo6385 ik but that read tho
@@aurifomo6385 using moves with more power but less accuracy isn't always a bad thing,except focus blast instead of aura sphere
That Tapu Koko is all I can think of everytime I rewatch this video. If you are going to use screens on your team, ACTUALLY USE THEM FOR YOUR TEAM. But because they just copy-pasted the set without even reading a word of why it exist, they didn't understand that
Metronome Magma Storm is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen
I've metronomed other crazy moves in wi-fi battles, metronome is such a fun move.
My togepi in gold had metronome against lance. He was my last pokemon and was like lvl 20. Lance missed his move, togepi used metronome, metronome became horn drill and he fcking hit that
@@ignacioperez5479 that’s physically impossible because you would’ve been lower level than him
@@itzsquishy3712 it was second gen. Not first
@@ignacioperez5479
That’s not how horn drill works.. why you lyin?
"Clearly he won't predict me switching out Tapu Koko like every other Tapu Koko player ever does"
"THIS GUY MUST BE A FORTUNE TELLER, HOW CAN HE PREDICT MY EASILY PREDICTABLE MOVE"
I was thinking that blizzard was his best move and the Tapu Koko just used U-turn because that was its best move.
I mean he could have just tbolted if he had a good set
Birdsinflames :] but he was a set up koko
@@shady8045 why use your own brain when you could just do whatever smogon tells you to do & THINK you're good because you copied a set that some twohead came up with?
*Rosaura Gerissen* is a classic example of the type of player I dislike on the ladder. We were all newbies who thought running Hydro Pump on Gyarados was a good idea or Leftovers Chansey was the right path to take at some point in our lives. If you've got time to mock why not throw someone a bone and help them out?
or at least be able to beat them before you say anything
At least they lost tho, right
I would be more okay with it if Rosaura wasn't garbage himself.
@@DJFracus If you're bad and you mock a newbie on the ladder you're a jerk who can't back it up against players of any credibility. And if you're good and you mock a newbie on the ladder you're kind of an elitist douchebag. Either way it proves absolutely _nothing_ because you're beating and deriding somebody who doesn't know what they're doing just to feel a momentary surge of superiority.
@@Gaelek13 sadly, I just saw this exact same thing happen in the comments section of this video.
The year is 2018
It's been five years since Pokémon X and Y
Generation 7 is already out
It's almost 2019
You log onto Showdown.
Your opponent sends out Talonflame.
Lmao
"Skill? What's that?"
I haven’t played Pokémon in a few years, but what’s wrong with Talonflame now? I remember it being super popular back when I played.
@@davidbronstein2040 Gale wings got nerfed to the ground sadly. Now only works with full HP.
I loved Talonflame so much. RIP. Also Gengar no longer has Levitate and some other gen 7 changes.
@@davidbronstein2040 basically they made all oppressive mons next to useless instead of simply tier shifting and or making more tiers so people cant complain but no instead were gonna nerf low use rate mons like darkrai and others because they have a move or ability that gives them a slight edge in there field that would be like if konami took a yugioh card and next edition reprinted it but with half of its abilites cut away like seriously all the mons they nerfed were legends or sudo legends based off there stats its like they didnt expect the good mons to be in top tier or something
Wait did clefable do what not even most heatrans can do and connect magmastorm? hAcKeR eXPosEd!!!
Alex Charles I swear that move misses as often as it hits
I see it always hit. Too bad it never does anything anyway.
Joan Aguayo Planell it’s a powerful stab trapping move. It’s incredibly powerful.
Joan Aguayo Planell in my experience when it does hit something that’s not a special tank or resistant to it it can one or two hit KO just about anything.
@@alexcharles1996ac thing is, when I see it hit, it's usually hitting my Dragonite's Substitute, who couldn't care less about the residual damage nor the trapping effect.
Weedle using stall?!??! UNSUBBED, DISLIKED, CRUCIFIED, EXPOSED
Also no WP outrageous!
Just Haloos LMAO
Crucified?
@hmmツ r/woosh
Oof
2:33 - 2:48 I facepalmed so hard.
I completely fell for that editing fakeout. I mean, an electric boss monster, with an ability that boosts electric attacks, using a strong and reliable electric attack? Clearly I'm a low ladder player for expecting that.
Koko's set is not a bad set. It's bad if u just copypaste without knowing what it's meant to do and play it like a regular Koko
>GOOD BATTLE
>yes
Im in literal tears holy fuck that guy was a legend.

Love your content :"3
Thanks it means a lot ❤
I wish i was weedletwineedle
when you make fun of someone for having less worthless internet points than you
to be fair the person fired the insults at the other player first so if anything those numbers just make the guy look like even more of a dumbass and a jackass all at the same time so either you cant fathom that idea or your the guy from the video
@@dr.dylansgame5583 this guy said a mean name to me :( let's broadcast him openly to thousands of people who will berate him constantly
PixelAnubis hes just sharing the love nothing wrong with that
I’d seen this guy in chatrooms before the video and came out, and now he gets teased everywhere he goes. These videos are sort of funny but in the future I think he should censor people’s names. The guy in the video seems not too happy about it, and its sort of sad to me because while I didn’t know him I would talk to him in various rooms and I don’t see him on showdown nearly as often anymore. I don’t think this video was intended to make people give this guy tons of hate, but it blew up and now this guy is pretty much bullied which seems wrong.
Don't be an asshole on the Internet if you don't wanna be exposed, guy got his just deserts. I don't have sympathy for arrogance
Besides, people would have bullied him regardless of this video because he STILL acted cocky and karma bit his ass.
Y’all already know we sackin ferrothorn to a manaphy in 2018
My max attack and speed ferrothorn couldn't handle tail glow.
There was a time when I was using manaphy, I used tail glow 2 times under rain to sweep, and the guy sent out ferrothorn. That thing scared the remains of my team so much that I simply just used an in rain +6 hydro vortex in coming out of a surf just to guarantee the KO.
So this guy thought: yeah amma keep my no Tbolt Koko as a wincon instead of setting screens. Deadass he don't deserve 1000 ELO
There should be an ELO below 1000
Update on Rosaura, they were apparently banned indefinitely and there highest ladder score is 1118
Oop
Why were they banned lol
@@ckrow123 for being a POS
@@ckrow123 I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that the person who links their game in a public chat just to make fun of their opponent probably has other toxic tendencies

Screw competitive garbage, I’d just like to learn how to play this game for fun.

@@ultsppi9262 fun 'til substitute.

tbh the most fun I have is coming up with double battle combinations that I think are funny.
My personal favorite is a gen 8 Doubles UU team that consists of a Hydreigon named Lucius and a Gardevoir named Narcissa.
Pokémon elitists are a legit joke
Not even a funny joke. The kind of joke your friend tells you that's casually racist & you want to call him out on it, but your other friends are laughing at it so you just give a polite chuckle & make a mental note to yourself to look for new friends.
This is literally The Best description
I once had a battle with a rain team guy on PU, he kept complaining about how my seaking was a rain team counter when in the battle he used an electric move and got absorbed by lightning rod. And I was like bro?? I'm not swift swim gtfo
Eventually I had to call a mod because he kept insulting me through pms and complaining on the pu chat
Omg O_o sorry to hear that. Some people really dont know how to just chill out. Its just a game after all....
you got mad over words tbh fam
Imagine complaining about a Seaking
@@Mekwek seaking is nice tbh
It doesn't have a lot of offensive pressure but a bulky lighting rod substitute set can take electric types by surprise.
@@Ryan-tr8vs At that point it was harassment
OMG, that Magma storm from the Mario Kart Item Roulette made me die of laughter XD. Keep it up my dude ;D
Rename the title to “Typial Low Ladder Player”.
?
@@Fivekato5 At the time this was commented, the title was "Typical Low Ladder Player"
Two things.....
1. Reasons why people need to learn how to build on their own teams and not let Smogon hold their hand to do it.
2. Well played on the stall team Weedle. Well played.
@Jeffrey Sweeney There are worse things. At least that makes a little bit of sense since in OU, past 1100 elo is 24/7 Lando T. But i can recall some people running hidden power fire for Ferrothorns or Hidden power flying because they didn't carry something like Flynium Z and fly or more shit just to counter one mon. I'm still guessing some smogon strategies because my head goes like "ok, but why tho"
@@juliobortoni6154 nah bro HP fire for kart
@@Ryo-uu7sw Even for kart sounds too niche for me rather than just flynium z his ass and then eq if it is a defensive variant. I prefer u-turn or taunt over hp
@@juliobortoni6154 not every lando ought to run flyinium and even then, defensive with flyinium bounces off it. Ur right in that hp fire is niche but it is usually just used on scarf lando/defensive lando for teams REALLY weak to scarf kart.
Ultimately HP ice is more useful for catching other Landos trying to pivot in to provide damage output for other members and delivering a decent chunk on zygardes, rendering a revenge option to +1 zygarde or for a defensive lando not to be set-up fodder for a coil zygarde.
@@Ryo-uu7sw Flynium is mostly exclusive to offensive/pivot landos due to the raw damage or the removal possibility. Hp ice is better also for countering now gliscor. Kartana is more of an oddpick nowadays since using him and ferrothorn opens up a huge weakness against fire, eq or focus blast, you end up running one or the other (i tend to run the latter). It's still for me very niche and mostly when you think how better is hp ice against rain teams id needed be, neutral dmg against both kart and ferro and now gliscor which is becoming a good defensive pivot that counters toxic and answerd back with toxic
Ok on some real shit I know nothing about pokemon or what game this is, but you showed a setsuna reference in this video so I'm wit it chief.
Setsuna is iconiq
@@WeedleTwineedle Of course my dude. 👌😤
*OH LOOK A BUTTERFLY*
Simply put, player A calls out player B on using a weak pokemon then player A loses the battle because he’s just as bad.
Lmao same, I quit the pokemon competetive scene about two years ago and I had honestly bo idea what was going on in this vid bet setsuna was here so ima like this vid
did that talonflame actually have mist ball LMAO
Natural Gift probable
@@Juan_Carl0s Maybe it was running Elo Bandit's 1v1 Talonflame set (in OU, for some reason): th-cam.com/video/oTVHR2-Agsc/w-d-xo.html

bruh moment
>”typical low ladder player”
>has atrocious W/L ratios themselves
HMMMMM
I can't say shit because I use showdown to test myself so my W/L is awful lmao.
I don’t claim to know much about competitive Pokémon at all, but even I can tell this guy was trying to flex so hard lmao.
@@velvet7304 yeah man if you can't walk the walk, don't talk the talk lmao.
And their excuse for having low ELO is "I'm smurfing"
@@WeedleTwineedle if you really want to be a sweaty tryhard you could run separate accounts to keep your winrates separate

1:50 Chansey’s facial expressions are just perfect
😃😠
I just want you to know that I love the time, effort, and comedy you put into your videos I really appreciate it. I’m having a rough and sad time in college and your videos really cheer me up. Much love ❤️
When Tapu Koko used U-Turn instead of Thunderbolt...
*Facepalm*
The set didn't have thunderbolt for a good reason given his move set it was the best play
So no facepalm
Silverfang 45 Saving a dual screen Tapu Koko as the last mon was a facepalm indeed.
Holy shit this was gold, never laughed so hard in my life! I need that source for the yeet though, because I need to listen to it on repeat for 24 hours

Jeez, it’s almost like people are just trying to have fun playing Pokémon. Screw them right?
Ikr
Yeah FUCK THOSE GUYS!!!!
This is why you always need to keep the odd sets in mind, especially if you’re running a Smogon Set.
You never know what odd strategy someone might attempt. I’ve surprised a ton of people by using Specs Slaking to get a cheeky kill against a weakened opponent
I have absolutely no idea whats going on
1:25 top 10 saddest anime deaths
Your channel is making me take an interest in competitive battling again. THANK YOU!!
Glad to hear, hope you enjoy it can be fun.
This guy made two whack chokes. First, thinking the opposing Gren was specs. And secondly, if he switched Gren out on the Garde, sack the useless Koko, so he can lock himself into Hydro Pump he could of won. Yeah he would have to hit 2 of them, but at least it’s a win con.
I just dropped my phone after that magma storm roll. It was like my neurotransmitters stopped working for a second.
I just snorted my drink when that gren dropped a blizzard. 💀 🤣
I've seen things I can never unsee.
Such sins as "Stall Pikachu."
This video was so masterfully edited. It was perfect. I loved every second of this. Looking forward for more content like this.
no it wasn't
i don't watch any youtuber other than weedle. His content is first class and not boring like the ones that many poketubers post

*blushes in anime*
In my opinion this was your best video yet. You had me on the floor laughing. You just made my day, my friend. :)
I keep coming back to this; it's a really well-edited, funny video.
The blizzard moment is iconic 😂
Idk why, but when Tapu Koko U-Turned that Greninja
I clearly heard in my mind
That Greninja said with the Tf2 Spy Voice
"Eugh, a concussion"
Super Bomberman 2 music, now that's some good taste weedle
I'm glad someone recognized the theme.
It was the world 3 theme nice
Saw this in recommended, thought “oh god, another poketuber”
Holy feckin shit mate, editing in on point, wtf.
If that nurse joy clip ain’t me in multiple choice tests
fan fridays... on a monday?!?!? Are you trying to snatch Verlis' brand???
Your content is a special kind of catharsis, and a rly addictive one
the justsmogonsets in the font of justgirlythings is comedy gold
I think I've watched this about 6 times now and this is still fresh. I love it so much
if Rosaura didnt choke and send out Blacephalon against Toshi's Ash-Greninja, they couldve won...maybe lmao, they were kinda stupid and predictable. if they still had Blacephalon available, couldve had a) one more pokemon on hand and b) had someone to use against Gengar. oh well, you live and learn
Also if tapu koko had t bolt he would have won.
yea, that too. i honestly dont understand Smogon's logic w/ having hardly any offensive movesets nor having them be STAB on the pokémon in question
@@Mariewolf_94 it's just coverage for mons and sets that are already popular. they're pretty dumb, especially in singles, where you can just get hard walled for not having stab. (this is _incredibly_ uncommon, but not all mega aggrons run heavy slam and can be walled by togekiss if they only have body press. I don't play higher tiers enough to think of any other examples lol). smogon also assumes that players using these sets actually know how to use things like fast pivots/screens.
@@seabirdflutter thats fair lol. i still find it a bit weird some of these set-ups dont have at least one STAB just in case, but what do i know? i'm not in the competitive scene lol
@@Mariewolf_94 no you're right, ideally every mon should be able to run at least one stab
If I knew that was you, I would've said hi.
So hi Weedle, have a good day!
:)
Creamy Kitty no u
Go commit batman's parents
every time this comes back to my feed i cant help but rewatch
The editing and pure work put into this was just beautiful ; ___ ; We are not worthy of such quality.
I was in the chat during that & I didn't know that was you lmao
2:39 That made me laugh way too hard
Not only was this a great battle, but the editing was absolutely hilarious. Subbed
I can feel the rage radiating off the last guy’s form when you got metronome magma storm
I keep coming back to this video for that zygarde read alone.
Finally I'm early. Love u weedle ur my fav poketuber and ur way too underrated
Not even triple punch Mega Sableye smh
1:23 I was playing Fire Emblem Fates while watching this
endy 05 Do you know the song in this segment
2:45 smogon truly is great with these high octane sets. Only true Rick and Morty fans could come up with such a concoction; truly impressed.
To be fair, the set isn't bad. It's the idiot piloting it that's the issue. You don't save your fucking Dual Screens Koko that long... it's there to support your sweepers. Not U-Turn sweep.
The real issue is copy-pasting the competitive set without having any idea on how it's supposed to work. I'm sure that set worked well in a specific team, played in a specific meta in a specific way, but if someone copies it to some casual match against noobs and has no idea what to do it's going to look stupid
I use this set.
There's an entire paragraph describing how it should be used... (as a support to agressive teams.)
@@sr.metang8193 Why not timid volt switch though? STAB electric terrian with a high base special attack is way better. I know ground types exist but I feel the risk is worth it.
@@pigeon3933 Volt Switch IS better than U-turn. The only problem though, is that since this set is going to be used on agressive, momentum reliant teams, losing a turn is often a high risk you don't want to pay.
Lmao! "GOD I SUCK!" other guy: "yes."
loved that metronome! I soooo knew you were gonna do that when the Clefable was on 8% HP
That Mario kart edit had me rollin
That Verlis Toxic joke nearly made me choke on my food xD.
Verlis tends to have that effect.
That Zygarde Read was brutal
This is the first video I've watched of yours and the use of the super Bomberman 2 soundtrack made me subscribe
I keep coming back to this because of that zygarde prediction. Absolutely perfect
"Go commit not die"
Nearly choked
well you almost commit not alive, lucky you didn't.
Weedle, were you forced to change the Hunter x Hunter music because of youtube? :(
I wish you did more of these types of videos, they are so good
I love your editing and the sound effects xD
Man the nurse joy bit made me laugh more than it should of.
You sir are great for using metronome on clefable.
This is a work of art. Great work, dude.
The Zygarde misplay was huge, but because they’re a metaslave they must have assumed Toshi was running specs aswell.
No excuse for the Blacephalon switch-in though. Thats a real smoothbrain move.
I died at the joey beast boost
The editing on this is just simply legendary.
Ayy, I see your channel is growing; from 10k to 15k subs, from 400 likes to 700 likes. Nice to see that man. Keep up the good work and stay happy💖
That Magma storm on metronome killed me XD
I'd just drop U-Turn for Volt Switch on that Koko set. Ground-types, yeah, but on almost everything else it's so much better.
I guess its because Lando T used to be everywhere.
What are the damage figures for -1 resisted U-turn against the average Lando-T anyway? Because I'm not convinced that it's a worthwhile investment, especially with Arena Trap's ban eliminating a problem with Dugtrio coming in on Volt Switch.with
Running the Electric move while simply switching out against a Ground-type just makes more sense to me.
Gengarzilla If Lando eats a Volt switch and then you have to switch manually, Lando gets a free turn. That’s no good.
But it's pretty much getting a free move anyway, we're talking about a base 70 power resisted non-STAB move after Intimidate. Hardly something to hold in such high regards over a hard switch when Landorus never carries something like Block.
I'm just not seeing why a little bit of negligible chip damage on one very popular roadblock makes an overall handicap supposedly so much better.
@@gengarzilla1685 that is because you don't have to guess
Literally started playing showdown again after coming across your videos. Big Boy Content
To answer the question in the beginning, if we go by there being a similar freeze clause in gen1 due to freeze being basically death, the secondary effects of moves would count toward sleep clause. I believe they simply start over if blizz/beam freezes more than one mon.
2:52
Good battelle
Yes
Lmao the blizzard part 😂😂😂😂
The reads
i like how you edit verlisify on your thumbnail it gets me every time
When the HXH ost kicks in lmao. I like your edits good job as usual

Dude, you're my inspiration now, I see many videos of you and you're crazy men... And that's cool.
Oh wow, I actually know this guy, he’s a jerk sometimes😑
Julie Jones Sure you do bub
Nice one
IRL? I've seen Rosaura in the lobby a couple of times
No, not IRL, lol
I heard he got permbanned
using a legendary as a dual screen setter is like using a SWAT team to operate an ice cream truck what the hell is smogon on??
it is very fast, can use fast taunt and set screen fast and u turn. Specific but good at its job
I like how the other guy was just like "Good game, was fun" at the end. Even after all the bs, they seemed like a good sport.
You spun the wheel, and it landed on... HEATRAN!
*crowd cheering as magma flows through the doors of the room*
See, this is why I look at Smogon sets and make my own corrections depending on my battling style
The set is perfectly fine
Just the dude fucking suckef at using it
It's a Tapu Koko using U-turn in a meta where Arena Trap is banned. Just use Volt Switch and do hard switches for Ground types. This action is allowed, contrary to what VoltTurn fans insist.
