    That's a genuinely creative concept, I'm getting a bit fatigued with the amount of rather worn out challenges that every bigger poketuber posts now so this is amazing and refreshing

      Doesn’t Callum have around 500k subs in his main channel? The only ones that I know that are bigger and do these kind of challenges are Shady, Vinny and Luke, maybe Patterz too? Unless I’m completely in the dark of anyone else who’s bigger, there aren’t a lot lol

    For anyone wondering what the 5th J-move is in Pokémon S/V it is "Jump Kick". Obviously Jump Kick is outclassed by Hi Jump Kick, so it actually was quietly removed from being a move since Generation 8 (Sun and Moon was the last game to see any Pokémon still able to use the move).

    • @CaptainDCap
      @CaptainDCap ปีที่แล้ว +10

      And in their infinite wisdom, GF failed to replace Jump Kick with High Jump Kick in the movesets of Dodrio, Stantler, and Sawsbuck, who now all have diddly squat for fighting type move coverage. (The deer get double kick LOL. Dodrio gets Low Kick, which is OK...I guess.)
      Marshadow also lost Jump Kick, but it has better options, so it gets a pass.
      Removing the move took pointless effort and made already terrible pokémon even worse. I'd give GF a Dunce hat, but they're so stupid I doubt they'd be able to figure out how to put it on.

    Hoodcal, you might want to know that Judgement takes the plate's typing. Even if it's not Arceus using the move. Therefore a good idea for Jirachi would have been to turn judgement into stab steel with the plate.
    100 (BP) * 1.2 (Plaque) * 1.5 (STAB) = an attack at 180 on steel type (or psy).

    If the Don had chosen Swalot, it could have run Shell Side Arm, Shell Smash, Shore Up and Spore with the ability either Simple or Serene Grace, give it a White Herb or Leftovers and Poison Tera for a just in case damage boost

    3:12 Basculin is better then Palofin here because it doesnt get it's Zero to Hero ability. Their stats are pretty comparable. Basculin has more attack and slightly less speed but Palofin has more bulk.
    I think B moves are better then the P moves. A lot more variety.
    Pure Power on Palofin tho would have be pretty nice at 10 points higher then Medicham. Basculin gets Beast Boost and Battle Bond tho, so still great abilities.

    It's all for fun and this was actually such a cool concept and fun battle!! But my competitive brain was just like... why did Don not just bullet punch again? xD Did he not just kill the Sneasler?
    Wait.. as I'm typing this, did he not know Silk Thread was just protect with a speed lower and thought it just stopped priority moves or something?

    • @HoodlumCallum
