@@dragongamer4753 No, clear amulet prevents stat drops but haze is a stat reset, not a drop. Haze therefore will reset the stats regardless of Dondozo's item
I mean, this is definetively an overlook, it's not a bug, but it's around the same. But I like Gamefreak doing botched jobs at implementing new mechanics. It always makes for fun interactions like these.
@@sofiacalado8836 but they named the ability commander. He isn't commanding if he isn't in there, the whole point is using tatsu's brain. Maybe they left it like this for fun but if it's not a lazy oversight then it does still break the lore
back when it was the first weeks of Doubles OU i used to run into many Suicide leads + toxic orb tatsugiri, this strats are way more predictable than it might look so with my Brute Bonnet i could just safely sleep the tatsugiri and then clear smog the dondozo, ik today many use steel type to counter clear smog but i guess it works as well with Haze. Back then i just thought the strategy was really bad since you were sacrificing two pokemons for a broken combo that could get easly countered
Explain why cramorant wasn't able to swallow the fish or Pikachu instead of waiting to be hit and return fire. Makes sense now with this mechanic. Imagine cramorant uses dive or surf and then has a fish. Cramorant uses swallow and recovers HP or plus 1 sp attack when swallowing Pikachu. Makes sense to me.
It's not shown in the clip, but Wolfe has his Annhilape use Final Gambit while Tatsugiri uses Endure. Endure lets Tatsugiri survive on 1 HP, and Final Gambit faints Annhilape which lets Dodonzo come in immediately and swallow Tatsugiri before it faints from poison.
If the other half of the team does follow me, wide guard, destiny bond, rage powder or other diverting moves/abilities it sort of counters that on the momento turn and manual switching on the next turn has top priority besides pursuit which doesn't accomplishmuch on a fodder support. They'd be sacrificing a mon, but You'd need something like arrowkuda's ability or shadow tag or block, to fully ensure disrupting it without potentially being in a worse spot wasting the turn hitting tatsugiri.
its not really busted, you are pretty much gambling with 2 Pokemon slots that you'll be able to bring tatsugiri down to 1 hp before the enemy pummels you or counters your strategy
Yeah, but wouldn't Dondozo has food poisoning?
..... I'll show myself out.
Only thing I could focus on the video is wolf’s inability to pronounce Pokémon names.
I wouldn't call it an "inability to pronounce Pokemon names," I'd call it an "ability to mispronounce Pokemon names"
Doedozo
Baring new gen 9 mons he purposely says specific names wrong like Decidueye.
He said tatsugiri right tho
is that his name?
Wow that strategy seems messed up. Amazing content, keep up the good work!!
Tyty :))
Murkrow with haze completely kills this strategy
Yeh that is tru
Doesnt clear amulet prevent haze from working?

@@dominicrochon5501 I saw a clip on showdown so i guess they got it wrong
Murkrow is also super common
The community: “Omg this strat is op!!!!”
Prankster Murkrow with Haze: *Allow me to introduce myself*
tera dark ez
@@avet4952 no prankster with haze ez
I LOVE using sableye to burn tatsugiri first turn killing it after endure before Don can switch in. People usually disconnect 😂
If you revival blessing the tatsu and come back does ur dozo get +4
Oh shit now you're into something. I wonder if rest dondozo with leppa berry pawmot could get it to +6

I think this is working within the boundaries of the game, i think implementing damage immunity would be a priority for them if it was the intention

That's why Haze Murkrow is dominating
Not specifically, just stat raising in general. It and clear smog are just good
Poisoned sushi
So... Does Dondozo just swallow Tatsugiri? He was bound to eat the boss sooner or later...
😆
Damn didn't think the day would come that people would want to actively kill there own pokemon in competitive but here we are lol
Yupp😂
last respect
And then murkrow uses haze and they cry
Haze+toxapex: ima bout to end this man’s whole career
Ya this video didn't age all that well 😂😭
wouldnt the strat get countered if you just dont hit tatsugiri? thats like the first thing that came to mind as soon as i saw it the very first time

You mean Endure. Endeavor does damage.
@@Smart1529 yep, meant endure. My smoothbrain used the wrong "End-" move 😅

I mean still tho it is a very viable strategy at least in the beginning of the format
I just use endevor with a low up fast Pokémon and it just half’s its hp making it really easy to kill
You can still counter that strategy and pretty easy too
Yeh with murkrow now
Welp Talonflame and Jolteon are going to be killing this strat
How would they jolteon I get with t bolt but why talonflame
@@toast2492 Talonflame learns Brave Bird & Tailwind. Jolteon learns Volt Switch, and gets the ability Quick Feet.
@@GlacierMoonDragon still dondonzo is bulky it can take a hit then OHKO jolteon or talonflame
@@toast2492 Thats where Gastrodon or a Fairy type come in.
@@GlacierMoonDragon I see gastradon but why a fairy type
Is slither wing still banned?
All paradox mons unbanned for series 2
Burn,Poison, or salt cure tatsugiri turn 1 and it'll negate toxic orb and die turn 1
Burn, or salt cure but yes
I think foofootoo was the first TH-camr to use this strategy
Oh was he? Then I apologize for not crediting him
Toxsugiri
Pros? , ah!.. u mean Fortnite kids born in the 00s that used a rental code?
