Most of us could not care any less about the tournaments, but niantic cares more about the tournament player base than the average player. Proven by them delaying the move updates causing players to waste tm's, all for a tournament with less than 100 people?
@@harrytoms90what on earth, why are some casual players this allergic to competitive players??? the game is part of the play Pokemon circuit, they have to pay attention to competitive. Wtf

Most said thunderpunch wouldn’t help typhlosion but honestly I think it does specifically because of pacing. Most people know it runs blast burn, solar beam which are both nukes. Now it has a little more versatility and doesn’t just have to switch when water comes in. I think this was a pretty good move for typhlosion.
At 12:22, I think it's the 1 turn bring-in bug, not the damage registration error. The Typhlosion swapped in after your Gligar fainted, so it should have got a 0 turn bring-in, but you got lagged a turn instead. Damage registration error is more clear-cut when the damage fails to register on the correct turn when the Pokemon are guaranteed to be synchronized, such as the start of a match or after a charged move. I see the 1 turn bring-in bug all the time, mostly when I bring in a Pokemon after a faint and don't get the fast move sneak when the opponent fires off an immediate charged move. Sucks to lose to a bug nonetheless, because had the game been working right you clearly would have won. What do the refs do about this crap in a tournament? Fix your friggin' game, Niantic.
Honestly I kind of hope these lag issues and broken mechanics persist through worlds, Niantic needs a hard lesson. Knowing Niantic though, it would go straight over their heads and they would deliver a message like “we found worlds to be underwhelming therefore we will be lowering our commitment to GBL”. 🤦🏼♂️
It’s battle rating is 367 in U league. If it got wing attack for a fast move and fly for a charge move, it’s battle rating *soars* to 515, which is very good. 60% win rate against open U league Would give noivern a power score of mid 80s . He just needs a better fast move and a more spam/bait charge move
@@dacubanmofo yeah i was thinking they could buff it with wing attack and fly or smt, giving it a niche among the other dragon/flying types since it's more charged move oriented and doesn't rely on dragon breath pressure
Typhlosion is definitely better than what the PVPoke ranking would suggest. Part of the issue is Incinerate is such a slow move that PVPoke underestimates it, since it doesn't factor in the user playing around the slowness, which would be especially important on a glassy Pokemon like Typhlosion. While I have seen people some people overrate Typhlosion slightly (a glassy fire type isn't never going to be meta filled with water types, especially when competing for a slot with freakin' Skeldirge), The coverage provided by Thunder punch, the speed at which is charges up those Thunder Punches, and the sheer damage of the Incinerates, are not to be underestimated. Also the existence of Thunder Punch actually makes the Solarbeam variant slightly more viable, since people may switch in a mudboi or other ground expecting a ThunderPunch only to to nuked by Solarbeam. Even if in practice 99% of the timeThunder Punch is just a far better move due to SB being so stupidly expensive.
no.. but there something wrong in moves. I waste like 20 fast tm to try get powder snow on my cetitan.. then i use elite tm salamance and it didint even show fly as option. Atleast for me none new moves are online, so dont waste your tms. Seems always need use elite tm first and check are moves avaible
Hey Henry try lokix. I just did 2 sets with lokix using counter and went 3-2 on both sets. Used shadow swampert and talonflame with it. Its actually kinda decent but its bulk is so lackluster that unless it has a good energy lead or your facing dark types, it probably wont get any kos but it can definitely put in some work. Almost beat 2 umbreons without using a shield so any other dark types like obstagoon are free eats.
Think bout it, it's ranked even better in UL and that too it's shadow form. I got an UL rank 8 shadow cynda, looking forward to the cday cause I have missed it.
I can’t make this up! I watched this video and went to go battle right after and ran into this exact team in my 2nd match lmao I was actually tripping out haha I managed to beat it though My team is Wigglytuff, A. Marowak, Umbreon. Wiggly Vs Gligar, charm fast move, block dig Opp switch to Typhlosion, immediately switch to Umbreon. Typhlosion blocked one foul play, goes for blast burn, I block go for another foul play, that one gets blocked, Typhlosion hits the blast burn, I get one foul play, I get hit KOd by incinerate. Send out A. Marowak, Opp doesn’t switch, I know blast burn is coming, take the hit for a bunch of damage but assuming Typhlosion isn’t going to stay in after charge move I switch to Wigglytuff and OPP goes to Feraligator. Perfect switch. Wigglytuff vs Feraligator, I have energy already and I need a debuff so I make it to icy wind and drop the attack, Feraligator lands 2 hydro cannons, then KOs Wiggly. A. Marowak at 40% health? and just a little energy, couple of fire spins and Feraligator KO, OPP sends in Gligar, I have energy and hit shadow bone and gligar KO, Typhlosion comes back with a hair more than a quarter health and I make it to a bone club and get a KO. GG to whoever decided to use this team on me 😄
Movesets; Wiggly: Charm, Icy Wind, Swift? (Trying it out because I never use my fairy charge move, charm does a lot of damage) A. Marowak: Fire Spin, Shadow Bone*, Bone Club Umbreon: Snarl, Psychic*, Foul Play
Win rate was about 50% so far. Just ran Lokix for 2 sets and went 9-1. It’s so fun! I can share team if anyone cares. It’s not super meta but moderately spicy and fun.
@@wilodragon5lokix on the lead, Dragalge and Azu in the back. If you run into double charm you could be in trouble as that was my only loss. Otherwise it was super consistent and Lokix can usually take one hit from most things.
@@RuRichelieu huh interesting team, I'll check if I can run it later, but I don't think I have a Great League Dragalge yet. Thanks still for the info, I'll give it a try. Good luck on your climb this season
And I was told this update didn't have anything fun in it 😂
sadly this is like one of the only 4 impactful changes
Yeah but seeing feraligater and toxapex rather than cash, poli, lanturn, tentacruel... I can go on about water types

Man the frame drop is costing quite maches 😢
Got me so pissed trying to use goodra in the ultra premier yesterday
Not frame drop it just feels like opponents are cheater's always lags while throwing charge attacks costing 2-3 fast moves
@@retinagaming6518there's always that one person saying dump things. It's lag bro, the game isn't in a good state
@@smolbeans7it’s literally lagging when throwing charge attacks tho .. it’s all over Reddit. I don’t believe anyone is cheating tho

Now, next season they will give move update to meganium, they are trying to make these starters of jhoto reliable

Gonna have to try this one out
here comes 10 hsh move update videos
Love this update. I'm trying the non shadow in gL right now but with the shadow claw. It's a terrific safe swap in the early ranks
That looked like a lot of fun! I had a shadow typholsion with blast burn ready, pretty cheap to build. So im definitely trying it out!
Does anyone know where I can find a list of all the new moves added this season?
I love your insight Henry! I learn something every video I love it! Keep up the great content mate👌 Can't wait to see you cast another regional💪
Thanks for the kind words, and for supporting the content!
Interesting team. I’m running dewgong lead instead of gligar with the same back line
Does thunderpunch require an Elite TM ?? I’ve wasted like 10 charged TMs already
no.. but there something wrong in moves. I waste like 20 fast tm to try get powder snow on my cetitan.. then i use elite tm salamance and it didint even show fly as option.
Atleast for me none new moves are online, so dont waste your tms. Seems always need use elite tm first and check are moves avaible
man that CC Ape was unexpected holy cow
Took them enough LOL I was wondering when the move updates would actually come out!
will you showcase salamence with fly something he been shouldve had as a move
I have a rank 4 GL shadow Typhlosion, but I don’t play GL anymore. It’s tempting tho..
surprisingly i’ve seen both stunfisk in the gbl a lot more now
Low ranks are stuck in the 2021 meta 😂

That’s nasty. When did you catch it? I haven’t seen any of the kanto or johto starters in shadow rotations :/ I started playing again last June
Have the move updates already been delayed a few days or am I buggin’ right now???(?)

Mate. You seemed like you were genuinely enjoying those battle!! Awesome 🤝🏻🏴🥓
It would be fun to see a non-shadow Shadow Claw version :)
Now we wait for hisu thyplosion to get shadow claw and maybe it has more potential like regular thyplosion
bro if i have to see one more mantine..good god
Love the JamieFin reference.
Jamies the goat 🔥
Feraligatr would be a beast if it could learn ice punch
Typhlosion is now the new Salazzle 👀
(sigh) when am I gonna be at the moment when whatever mon gets update, I have a built shadow version of it ready 😁
Holy hell I want one now man 😂
It is indeed very fun to use Shadow Typhlosion
Ah yes, Gligar my favorite Johto starter
Not starter
@@islamtabti2589 that's the joke
Shadow Typhlosion beats Feraligatr in the one and the two shield, as well as with an incinerate energy lead
How about Typhlosion in the Ultraleague? Show us Henry please!
Nice to see water types getting toned down (lanturn, whiscash) but hydro cannon, shadow claw, and counter still need nerfs...
Hell no? What? LETS JUST NERF EVERYTHING.
BUFF EMPOLEON PLZ
@@jessicamendoza9407it already got buffed, twice
I got close combatted by annihilape too after being like only 7, no shadow ball. All you can do is tip the cap 😅

Make a vid for ultra as well please

what do u do against mudboys?
Gligar can fight back/soft lose to whiscash or quag
And then energy on feraligatr + typhlosion should do well vs their backline!
