Play time is over kiddies. You two are going to have to stop rehashing the same content and evolve with PVP league. PokeAK, Zyonik and others are actually providing trainer tips that are useful.
@@jaysonvasquez7638 "Those two" don't have to do anything. It's their channels, their content. Many of us enjoy their vids. Each TH-camr has something different to offer. Be kinda boring if they were all the same. And since when did you become Nick and Holly's boss trying to tell them what to do?
Just be a bit aware when using melmetal against pinsir, if it has rock smash as its fast move its gonna eat through a melmetal. Mawile can be a bit annoying too due to the variety of fast moves it has! If you have one and are really struggling, air slash togekiss with ancient power can be really nice against pinsir, it DOUBLE resists its 2 fast moves and deals super effective damage with air slash!
i saw a comment with someone saying chandelure for the pinsir, and i did try it and surprisingly it works despite overheat not charging up as fast as youd maybe want it to and chadelure being a glass cannon, so yeah thats an option i guess, and, im prolly gonna stick to it since i know it works and as usual im low on healing 😔😬 EDIT: credit to Roy Mustang for saying use chandelure as well as go hub for saying about chandelure
For those of us who don't have Melmetal, would Machamp or Dialga be a better replacement? Machamp absolutely obliterated Mawile and ate up both shields.
Note: Beldum just has Take Down and Struggle as moves, (4.22 Damage per second. pretty low) so you can beat it pretty easily and charge up a lot of energy for the next pokemon up. for example, lapras could be next up
Jonathan I faced her once and IMO if you go Lucario it’s probably better to just fire off the one PUP then charge energy. Fire the 2nd PUP when pokemon 2 comes out and if you have the extra move, you’ll be pretty close to that going off too
I used a bug type attacker on Sierra with her last line up, and I was even able to take all 3 of her mons out multiple times with just my (not even fully maxed out) 100% Scizor with Fury Cutter & X-Scissor, but only when she had the right mons (Absol/Cacturne/Shiftry if I remember right).
The old Sierra team also got nuked by a bug type. It was a horrible iv Scyther and it could have swept her entire team if I didn’t use something else to burn shields.
@@nishilbright2007 I have a friend that didnt complete the articuno research and the next month he did both research tasks and got two shadow zapdos, So I'm gessing that if you manage to complete all your researchs before the mont ends you can get more than one raikou
Beedrill x scizzor is usefull if you dont want to power up scizor, beedrill will cost less stardust than scizor and beedrill attack kinda good too in pvp
New Gio line up - Tried to beat Persian/Hippodown/Raikou and the Persian took out 2 Level 40 Machamps consistently and without breaking a sweat. Took on a Persian/Steelix/Raikou with 2 Machamps and a Rhyperior and smashed it up quickly and in a hurry. Nick - Can you do a video on beating both line ups? Why does the Persian in one set seem so much more powerful than in the other?
So, I faced a Bug Bite/X-Scissor shadow Pinsir today. I don't have Melmetal. It was not fun. Blaziken firespin/overheat was my best answer. On the bright side I got a shiny shadow Pinsir, which is nice.
Man I’ve been loving the go battle league but as soon as I hit rank 5 today I don’t stand a chance, I’ve lost 15 battles straight, my opponent always is able to use fast attacks way faster than me, my Pokemon feel slow as hell, and my charge moves are barely charging, do I just really suck or is something up with this thing cos this is bumming me out
Tsukino Rei these are the mons on my current go to team Altaria dragon breath, dragon pulse, dazzling gleam (I know it’s better to have sky attack but I need more charge tms) Azumarill bubble, ice beam, play rough Sableye, feint attack, shadow sneak, foul play (I want to change feint attack to shadow claw but I don’t have any fast tms) From the research I did these are supposed to be good mons with good attacks, when I was using them up to rank 4 they were awesome, azumarill would charge it’s moves hella fast it was great, but as soon as I got to rank 5 in like 90% of battles I don’t even get to use a single charge move cos all my shields go and my entire team faints before I can charge a single charge move
@@bachaddict how would you have reacted to this scenario then, I was running the team I mentioned above in my last comment, leading azumarill, opponent sent out toxicroak, were both attacking, his quick attacks are doing mad damage, I'm about 1/4 of the way to a charge move and he uses a charge move, obviously I was worried about a sludge bomb 1 shorting my azumarill so I blocked, he used mud bomb, we attacking again, about 1/2 way to my charge move he uses another one, I don't block because I'm hoping he uses mud bomb again which will barely do anything, and I'm correct, mud bomb not very effective, it does like 1/8 of my health, then we attacking again and he gets of 2 more charge moves before I get mine then I use mine he blocks it, knocks out azumarill and he's not even down to half health. Just tell me, does that sound right, it sounds like the game is busted to me cos usually bubble charges azumarills attacks really quick
any advice on the arlo starting? as nick only suggested maybe starting with something like tyranitar and then switching to swampert to get the cooldown, cuz ive noticed with that the pokemon i switch to gets hit somehow just as i switch to them, so wondering if theres a better option to bait the shields?
Hi Trainer Tips Nick. Could you also include alternative picks. for people who don't have all the pokémons. e.g I don't have Lucario, Tyranitar or Melmetal.
Old Hag73 honestly, Cliff has been the only one I’ve struggled against. Last month he was such a pain because all the ones I faced had Zen Headbutt as his Stans fast move. It ate my Lucario alive.0
Lol i was fighting cliff first but got lucky Coz it was Pinsir, Omastar, Tyranitar I took him down with A good fire type, that one took care of Omastar too and then Tyranitar was done by my Own Tyranitar
Hello Mr Trainer Tips, can you make a new and updated video about moveset and if it is possible to use a list to see good pokemon for PvP rather than trust a meta list or find the god one bt try and fail. What do Power-Up punch do and how can the noves be used and when shall the moves be used asp.
Wow, looks like I REALLY need to invest in a 2nd move on Lucario, should have done it awhile ago but it's worth the dust/candy from what I've seen in your video.
Lucario is a beast n I've just hatched the shiny cant wait to see u at safari zone liverpool I've got a sandshrew with ur name on would live to get a trade n pic with u keep up the amazing work
Finally Cliff is back with some actually menacing and intimidating starting pokemon, I couldn't honestly take Cliff seriously when he was starting battles with *A DERPY-ASS STANTLER* - It's ridiculous how both Sierra and Arlo have large majority of their pokemon rosters weak to fighting - I've been on a roll *mowing down* Rocket Leaders left and right *ONLY (or almost soloing them) with my 100% Counter-Cross Chop Machamp*
I have a question. If I fight a Rocket Grunt and it has a Mudkip, can that Muddkip be shiny, or can you only get shiny shadows from bosses? (Sierra, Cliff, Arlo)
I actually manage to take down Sierra (Beldum, Sharpido, Alakazam) only using my great league Poliwrath (Mud shot, PUP+Ice punch, CP 1500). She's ridiculously easy to take down...
ScorchedShadow Im pretty sure if you unlock a second move on the shadow Beldum, then evolve it during the (expected) December Community Day, it would learn Meteor Mash. Because I’m very certain I saw some TH-camr mention purified Pokémon CAN get the CD move despite “Return” being coded in, it just takes a second move slot. I mean it would be the most expensive mon considering second move costs and power up costs if you actually wanted to use it, but it would be look sick! And I’d only even consider it if it was like a hundo lol. Just an impractical but cool idea
I've never noticed how 7 of the 9 third pokemon have double weakneses: Dragonite, Salamence and Torterra fear ice, Scizor fire, Tyranitar fighting, Swampert grass, and Shiftry bug. The only ones without a double weakness are Alakazam and Houndoom
Yo theres no need to prepare special counters most times just burn the shields and then beat the last 2 mons, i literally beat sierra on a alt with no good mons
Wow Sierra shows up to your house now? Haha she wants to battle bad!!! Also amazing match against Cliff!! His Torterra is such a beast! Sweet moves!

5:19 just a heads up, mawile doesn’t have charm. It has bite, ice fang, fire fang, and astonish.
Thanks for pointing that out!
Just be a bit aware when using melmetal against pinsir, if it has rock smash as its fast move its gonna eat through a melmetal. Mawile can be a bit annoying too due to the variety of fast moves it has!

@@trnrtips Should also add ancient power should be its charge move as it's the cheapest one energy wise 😅
Do you mean Togekiss? Gotta evolve one yet. Thanks for the tip
@@jaumcardososs Yeah, edited. Autocorrect changed togekiss to robotic initially, then for some reason I changed it to togetic 🤦♂️

Got a 100% Heatran last week so I powered it up. It's been great for these leaders and is definitely worth checking out.
LOL PHOTO ON THE DESK HAD ME CACKLING

@@joeymadrigal9432 what? try to articulate your thoughts into a cohesive sentence...
Double Nick feature whoop :D
Thanks for the support!
PS: Send gifts for Shiny Riolu or we will tell Sierra.
Just his face😂😂, on how surprised he was when he realised he smashed it first time, for the video..
Little problem with the cliff lead. Pinsir can also come with rock smash and close combat so chandelure would be the better option
Someone forgot to play the classic battle soundtrack.
Add me on pogo : 3610 5099 5492
ThIs LoL
For those of us who don't have Melmetal, would Machamp or Dialga be a better replacement? Machamp absolutely obliterated Mawile and ate up both shields.
Ditto
Ask around your community for meltan boxes
Machamp with cross chop is amazing
@@bachaddict how can someone give me a mystery box?
Not Dialga. It’s moves take to long to charge.
Note: Beldum just has Take Down and Struggle as moves, (4.22 Damage per second. pretty low) so you can beat it pretty easily and charge up a lot of energy for the next pokemon up. for example, lapras could be next up
Jonathan I faced her once and IMO if you go Lucario it’s probably better to just fire off the one PUP then charge energy.
Fire the 2nd PUP when pokemon 2 comes out and if you have the extra move, you’ll be pretty close to that going off too
For us filthy casuals going against Cliff: Yanmega, Linnea & Torterra against his Pinsir/Marrowak/Swampert combo
Linnea as in Leafeon? Lol
What attacks should be on yanmega
@@mannishgambino Mine had double Flying -- Wing Attack & Aerial Ace (good for shield breaking)
Maybe we can bring Charizard instead of ice types against Grass types ( torterra)... x2 resistance ( fire & flying)
Adarsh Dubey Ice deals x4 damage.
Better off taking the x4 damage then a x4 resist considering how low the Shadow Pokémon’s defence is
Loving the daily vids lately!
Nick those pants looks pretty sick
.

Also so cool that the community is very close to hit 1M !!!
I used a bug type attacker on Sierra with her last line up, and I was even able to take all 3 of her mons out multiple times with just my (not even fully maxed out) 100% Scizor with Fury Cutter & X-Scissor, but only when she had the right mons (Absol/Cacturne/Shiftry if I remember right).
Chris I used something else for Absol but a horrible scyther swept her team totally.
I've given up on the team rocket leaders.
the hunters of shadow shiny never have time to rest 😂
Luck Fire they do actually.
10pm-6am
Lol @ blacking out the pokestops where he lives becuase people on the Internet be cray!
Oh. That was smart. I was wondering what went wrong there
ugh duh . lol i'm just messin with ya. of course dood stays safe. california is filled with more whack jobs than florida and alabama combined!! hahah
The old Sierra team also got nuked by a bug type. It was a horrible iv Scyther and it could have swept her entire team if I didn’t use something else to burn shields.
For Torterra, use a Lock on Regice or Blast Burn Charizard. Kills it quick.
I just got my shiny shadow beldum and I've been using machamp dragonite and my 3 choice depends on stuff against Sierra.
Haven’t been bothered with the Giovanni quest.but definitely want to complete it this month for Raikou.
If you complete all of your requests I think you can get 4 shiny Raikous
@@nicolsmerchandominguez5440 how is it guaranteed?
@@nishilbright2007 I have a friend that didnt complete the articuno research and the next month he did both research tasks and got two shadow zapdos, So I'm gessing that if you manage to complete all your researchs before the mont ends you can get more than one raikou
So for cliff. If you don’t have melmental, who do you use?
Beedrill x scizzor is usefull if you dont want to power up scizor, beedrill will cost less stardust than scizor and beedrill attack kinda good too in pvp
Sierra last month had a major weakness to bug as she had absol, cacturne as a possible 2nd and Shiftry 3rd
Why do you not use Dnite against Cliff's Torterra ? Don't worry about SE moves, just spam Dragon Claw and double resist everything
New Gio line up - Tried to beat Persian/Hippodown/Raikou and the Persian took out 2 Level 40 Machamps consistently and without breaking a sweat.
Took on a Persian/Steelix/Raikou with 2 Machamps and a Rhyperior and smashed it up quickly and in a hurry.
Nick - Can you do a video on beating both line ups? Why does the Persian in one set seem so much more powerful than in the other?
The drip in this video is off the charts
The way he holds up the picture reminds me of weebs holding body pillows.
Why didnt you use fire moves against torterra? Its grass type
The stop at Nicks apartment should just permanently be a Sierra stop lol
Im in LBC this weekend grindin at The Pike
Should have seen your guide first before battling. I defeated Sierra and Da Boss Giovanni. Hippowdon is too strong. Got any suggestions?
Swampert with mud shot and muddy water best shield burner. Then use hydrogen cannon KO it or switch to better counter.
Loving all the uploads lately Nick
How do you get that hat that your player is wearing?
I hate that they cycled out Absol. It is so hard to find Absols now. Eggs only and just yikes to that
I've been putting Giratina to use with the dragon move set and it clears shields super fast! Been working on all of the leaders, including Gio 🙌
How do you get the luchador clothes?
I died when the manage pokemon prompt popped up. Cool way to hype-kill if you have friends with you, watching as well. 🤣
So, I faced a Bug Bite/X-Scissor shadow Pinsir today. I don't have Melmetal. It was not fun. Blaziken firespin/overheat was my best answer.
On the bright side I got a shiny shadow Pinsir, which is nice.

Chiken Morris def your moves
Tsukino Rei these are the mons on my current go to team
Altaria dragon breath, dragon pulse, dazzling gleam (I know it’s better to have sky attack but I need more charge tms)
Azumarill bubble, ice beam, play rough
Sableye, feint attack, shadow sneak, foul play (I want to change feint attack to shadow claw but I don’t have any fast tms)

dont understand how you can get shiny from the bosses but not gio..;.
Probably because you only get 1 to 2 chances a month to get the Shiny on Geo when you get a good chunk of chances with the Admins.
What’s good against cliffs tyrant?
I took down Sierra with a Heatran and a Salamence. She had Beldum, Exeggutor, Shiftry.
Hi Trainer Tips Nick. Could you also include alternative picks. for people who don't have all the pokémons. e.g I don't have Lucario, Tyranitar or Melmetal.
I fought Cliff 4 times today and I got spanked hard. Nice to see Nick struggle too. But now I know what to power up for my next encounter with Cliff
Old Hag73 honestly, Cliff has been the only one I’ve struggled against.

Is it possible to get multiple guaranteed lucky trades with 1 person or is it just 1
My scizor kicks SERIOUS butt in Team Rocket battles! The bad guys only get a couple hits in between my X-Scissors!
Torterra tearin up some ... stuff there, boyieeeeeeeeee!
i used entei w/ fire fang/overheat against cliff's torterra and it worked well
I found Cliff the hardest this round. Did eventually and got a shiny Pinsir yay🎉
Isn’t roserade the best grass type attacker?

Wow, looks like I REALLY need to invest in a 2nd move on Lucario, should have done it awhile ago but it's worth the dust/candy from what I've seen in your video.
you should have done it when it was Riolu, just 10.000 dust as every baby pokemon. When you evolve it the cost is bigger
Lucario is a beast n I've just hatched the shiny cant wait to see u at safari zone liverpool I've got a sandshrew with ur name on would live to get a trade n pic with u keep up the amazing work

Hey Nick Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day 💜💜💖💌💝🌹💐 so Almost there 😏👍🏼
Yo theres no need to prepare special counters most times just burn the shields and then beat the last 2 mons, i literally beat sierra on a alt with no good mons
The fights scale by account level and max mons, that’s why....
Scubysnax2012 Ik but I still bullshit my way through on my highest level account
I used Lucario/Tyranitar/Rhyperior against Mawile/Steelix/Salamance! 1 fight K.O. them!! 😜
I got my first shadow shiny pokemon Mawaile beating arlo I used team of machamp against mawalie, steelix and salamence
Dat rockslide chain doe
i had to re-battle cliff more than five times bc he had electivire and torterra and i was strugglin
I destroyed Sierra with one machamp. She had beldum, sharpedo, and Houndoom.
Do we have to beat the 100 grunts before fight Giovanni?
I had to kill 32 (for enough radars, and tasks)
Something other then Mel metal?
Against Cliff I comfortably used Moltres, Groudon and finally Ended him with Machamp
Defeated Sierra and caught shiny shadow Beldum chyeah!!
i got the shiny shadow mawile on my first team rocket boss
5:36 no I don’t :(
Same. ):
