The Koala's name is "Yookie" and he is a professional gamer.
Pokemon Competitive Singles has been turned on it's head with the release of the "Indigo Disk" DLC. The once overlooked Komala has had surprising success on an all new team for it's unique ability to reliably answer Status + Hex Dragapult. Beyond this Komala also provides the valuable utility of Knock Off, Rapid Spin and Wish.
The player Tio Chico has seen potential in these unique tools and used Komala all the way up to #9 on the Gen 9 OU Ladder.

Iron Mugulis and Iron Fellow know all about it.
Only Jim knows about the viability of Komala. All other sources of information are liars and are inaccurate.

Some will never figure out how to get Komala in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. But famous player Jim Cool is well aware of the Best Komala Moveset in Competitive, and even how to Komala Shiny Farm. Many aren't and never will be. That's just the unfortunate reality of the world.
Arceus exists.
The below text is very relevant to many people.
Game Freak just blew all other online game development schools out of the water with this incredible new 2022 release. You're gonna need to get a game design degree online, and FAST, if you want to make a better game than this. Not even the best strategy games android reddit could hold a candle to this breathtaking Next generation competitive Pokemon experience.
Scream Tail is the Jigglypuff of our wildest dreams. It has been buffed with some higher statistics and the incredible ability, Protosynthesis. Gen 9 Competitive Pokemon wouldn't be the same without this powerful pink blob. He kinda looks like someone I met in one of my game design and development courses.
Gen 9 Pokemon Showdown is one of the greatest online gaming sites in history. From Pikachu and Charizard, to Palafin and Roaring Moon, The new Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, have introduced a lot of new faces. Can I succeed in one of the best android games of all time? If so, I'm gonna get myself a Walmart bakery Pokemon cake to celebrate.
Gholdengo is a Pokemon made of pure gold. He must have done some online business management courses to accumulate all that wealth. Or perhaps he might want to learn how to make money playing video games on TH-cam. In any case, he's a powerful metagame force, with absolutely no interest in online game development schools.

The Koala's name is "Yookie" and he is a professional gamer.
Also the first Pokemon to serve as US vice president
And the ability was skill swapped to the president (Comatose)
@@somebodyuknow2507is he able to use sleep talk- roar on the senate
@@somebodyuknow2507What does that ability do?
@@et34t34fdf Comatose causes the Pokémon to behave as if it were asleep, though it doesn't officially have the Sleep status condition. It can still use its regular moves, but cannot be inflicted with any major status condition (sleep, poison, paralysis, burn, or freeze).
The one who "finally beat medicare"?
"Komala was not available in gen 8 because he hates the UK" based ngl
The last time Jimothy Cool slandered the UK, he roared in the Dug. This does not bode will for our hero.
He was sentenced to the penal colony
Jimothy's monotone speaking style means his jokes come out of fucking nowhere which makes them 20x funnier.
lmao
He's just like me fr fr, I hate the UK too
outrageous that komala is allowed to blatantly ignore the much maligned sleep ban to beat dragapult
No you don’t understand a council member lost to hypnosis, Sleep had to be banned. /s
Komala beats stall in its sleep.
How does it touch any of the walls stall uses?
@@whydoiexist7029with its little paws
@@CoNteMpTone and the gun it found
@@NanachiikyAmerican koala
Did you know that if you put a grass type Pokémon in front of Komala, it will not recognize it as a grass type? That is because it only ever encounters grass types in trees in the wild. You have to put a grass type in a tree before Komala's Ice Spinner can hit it super effectively.
Just like real Koalas.
_Branch falls off_
*aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
If you snoose, you lose ❌
If you sleep, you sweep ✅
The Horse Council and its non stop media coverage has been a smokescreen for the koala kouncil
The recent rulings on krookodile make me suspect a kangaroo court
@@jackdixon6681*Kangaskhan Court
Koala koalition
Everyone is forgetting the true second Australian Pokémon, Heliolisk
Kangaskhan?
@@frankchen4229that's the FIRST Australian Pokemon not SECOND
@@user-ee6lk1pb6w ...Golduck would be the first because of platypus...
@@frankchen4229 that's a duck
@@big__shell ...and a platypus.
There is a German saying "Wer schläft, macht nichts verkehrt." which means "Who sleeps does nothing wrong." and Komala thinks that is beautiful.
I believe Krookodile can apply for the Australian animal council as he is designed after a crocodile, arguably a freshwater crocodile.
It appears to be an Egyptian croc to me and less like ours
Counterpoint: saltwater crocodiles don't live exclusively in Australia, so can you really call them an Australian animal?
@@logancosta3166 I mean, he came from poke-America. Specifically, the famous desert just north of New York City.
@@overlord3481 i said freshwater crocodile
Pokemon whose Australian-ness should be investigated:
Spiders, as another commentor has noted.
Dodrio, since its design has similarities with cassowaries.
Marowak, for its signature move Bonemerang.
Magby, since it's based off of birds and sounds like magpie.
Magpies aren’t just in Australia you know
1:03 This is the Australian representation I can get behind.
this video is peak jimothy
2:37 sir you did not just say that XD
“Koalas might sleep a lot, they might have small brains, but they will still drop out of a eucalyptus tree and gut you just for existing underneath them”
-Steve Irwin
People rag on stall all the time which makes sense, it’s often frustrating to play against, but wanting a tier to have more creative options and hating stall are incongruous viewpoints imo because stall is the playstyle that finds the most use for overlooked, seemingly weak pokemon that happen to have one or two extremely crucial traits for he metagame.
I respect Stall, but not the people who choose to use it. Winning a 75+ turns battle for only 10 points or so doesn't feel very rewarding.
Komala's real problem is that it's weak to the gonorrhea status effect
What about giant spiders like Ariados and Galvantula Jim? They also should be included in the australian agency.
True.
I am sorry, but neither of those pokemon are spiders. Galvantula only has 6 legs, while ariados has a measly 4 (6 if you include those weird leg-things on its back).
@@jackdixon6681 be wary of questioning the legitimacy to the claim of spider, don't want to end up under the radar of Spidops and his Arachnid Army.
New Jim storyline for after horse council spotted in this thread 👀
@@CodeMilkMan I'm cool with spidops. He's got 8 legs.
To clarify, REAL SPIDERS:
1. Spidops
2. Tarountula
FAKE-ASS WANNABES:
1. Ariados
2. Araquanid
3. Galvantula
I am always happy to see the little guys being used effectively.
I hope we get a platypus or Tasmanian Devil Pokémon soon!
We have a platypus pokemon hidden inside the Duck Division: Golduck.
It has no wings, but claws instead. Doesn't seem to have feathers, does not fly, and above all: *it is in the Field Egg Group instead of Flying Egg Group where most birds resite*
this sounds like the Gen 1 Porygon situation where it's really good against One Set on One Good Pokemon and then kind of does whatever to the rest of the tier but still helps
then that one good pokemon does something other than that one set and you are now playing 5 against 6
The Law of the Ladder is that if you bring something to beat a specific mon, you'll never run into that mon ever
Komala was the second Australian Pokémon ever created.
20 years after Kangaskhan release, Australian pokemon fans were thrilled at this all new representative of our nation
And this turned out to be a pretty spot on adaptation of our iconic national animal in Pokémon form.
Komala has the signature ability Comatose
Komala has the ability Comatose, which means it is considered to be asleep at all times.
Very accurate for real Koalas
A humble koala outplaying a mighty dragon. Insane.
Thanks Jimmy i wouldn't have known that koalas were excellent gamers without this video, thanks again!
we need to be honest folks, jim holding a koala is adorable
In a fair fight with an irl koala I think I win every time, if the koala gets the jump on me I give it 50/50 odds
Just wait until people start running Dream Eater to counter Komala.
"hi mom, I'm on TH-cam". Tio Chico here, thanks for the spotlight.
Komala should get poison heal as a hidden ability, it’s lore accurate to real life
Komala is officially the Porygon of Scarlet and Violet, you love to see it
The best gimmick of comatose is not its sleep but the fact that komala is asleep. The thing we THINK that attacks. But how come doesnt change colours but his stump does.
Its another mimicing pokemon
This is one of your best recent videos, great stuff haha
The 2nd australian pokemon, this is insane folks
2 months ago i also noticed that thos little koala 🐨 it's very useful
That ending was beautiful
This was a great blend of humor and analysis. Would love to see more like this!
this has been my favourite vid of yours in a while, keep up the good work
Koalas are such dedicated gamers that they evolved to have two thumbs on each hand. Gotta respect the grindset.
You outdid yourself on this one with the humor. I was giggling at all of the little jokes.
Your videos are a delight, jimothy cool.
Komala also gets a bonus to attack against British pokemon such as Galarian Weezing
Hilarious, because not even Neutralizing Gas turns off Comatose.
Still waiting for Komala to get a mega that turns it into a dropbear
1:02
Honestly, who can blame him.
I hope they make an Australian based region and give this guy an evolution, maybe based on a drop bear? Hopefully when they make that game its actually good unlike the last couple, I dont want Australia wasted on a shitty game.
7:12 I'd honestly forfeit too if I was down 4-6 and the enemy Komala Tera darks my future sight lol
I think that Pokémon had given tons of love to Australia.
Every spider Pokémon is approximately the same size as an Australian counterpart
Komala whipping wood hammer out in a teamfourstar run was pretty brutal.
Talented TH-camr and up-and-coming model "Jimothy Cool" is quite a versatile creator it seems!
Komola is one of my favorite Pokémon in gen 7. Glad it can actually have a good use against something like Dragapult, a Pokémon from the UK.
Komala having a niche is hilarious, I love this game
Comatose: a broken ability
GF: let’s give the pokemon mediocre stats overall and a basic type
Good as Gold: a broken ability
GF: put it on a pokemon with a great type and good stats and give it a really strong move
Komala snooze
You lose
The 2nd Australian pokemon. This is insane
This inspired me. Truly.
Komala needs a drop bear forme like Morpeko
Komala is another example of how moves are the most important thing to a pokemon's viability.
Makes me feel sad about Floatzel. While it is technically better now thanks to Wave Crash, losing Seitcheroo completely gutted it's Water Veil sets, losing a lot of skill expression.
Also when a pokemon becomes viable due to one set, it often props up it's other sets as the simple act of your opponent not know what moves you're running props the "less optimal" sets with surprise factor.
Awaiting Komala’s dark-type evolution based on Australia’s most terrifying ambush predator, the drop bear. Surely none shall survive.
This was uploaded for Australia's timezone,good choice
reminds me of how I used Rampardos to get pretty high in the Mix and Mega ladders, even beating the number 1 ranked player in a match
Komala: [its permanent sleep grants immunity to other non-volatile status conditions and manages to threaten OU staples that rely on those conditions]
Darkrai: _"There are those who said the day my ability would no longer suck would never come... _*_What have they to say now?"_*
So glad to see people pushing back against all the koala hate.
Drifloon(+hp and +def) with wilo wisp and strength sap hard counters Great Tusk and Zamazenta, also has defog, knock off and haze which usually always help
Sounds good actually.
getting Boots knocked off by Tusk would be bad though. But I suppose getting Burned is even worse for them
Jimothy telling us not to sleep on Komala. This is truly insane, folks
The Jimmothy cool sleeper build is real
We did it folks. We’re gaming.
I was gonna post the Koala copyasta at 1:51, but you beat me to it xD
Komala was one of my first shinies i hunted too :) I still have him too
Super cool tech option
Komala was the second Australian Pokemon ever created.
Gengis… CAN? from its Khan. Like Gengis Khan. I’m still not over GROOOOO-don and now this 😂❤ love ya tho Jim!!!
I love the jokes jimothy does in his videos
this is huge, folks
I patiently await the future Komala form, Iron Silence, in the Jimothy cool channel. This is insane
The end of Last resort sleep talk band was one of the saddest nerfs
against dragapult I usually prefer using max spdef garganacl, since it is also immune to status and even resists ghost, with max spdef it can even tank specs draco meteor sets and with iron defense it can tank dragon darts
This is insane
Magnificent
I wish that sleep and Comatose boosted Facade's BP like how burn, poison, and paralysis do
Very high koality video
I’ve seen a Koala’s Growl, it’s very frightening
The Heliolisk line is crying in the corner when you called Komala the 2nd Australian Pokemon....
Koala gaming? This is huge.
The thumbnail made.me suddenly wonder if Kangaskhan was a top 10 pokemon in a post-Komala gen.
well maybe mega kangaskhan?
I can't beliieve Komala Harris would do this
Komala still remembers Gallipoli
Darkrai can finally use its ability for something other than Rest punishing after the sleep ban now lol.
i can finally be as cool as Jimothy Cool
Technically, Skarmory could also count as an Australian Pokemon, since they're based off of cassowaries.
Jim you are the funniest poketuber
This is a very high-koality video, folks.
I used this and alolan marowak in OU when gen 7 first released. Opponents would constantly try to status Komala or volt switch on marowak. Actually got to play against Pokeaim and got embarrassed. He posted it on his channel but I didnt save the link.
A yawn/wish user, immune to status and ghost moves.. say less. Hes glorious.😅
the gen 9 ou tier was foolish to rouse a sleeping bear. this is insane.
"high koality"
10/10
The real kings were using banded sleep talk last resort, before Bulbapedia had it listed as a turn one move with a choice item.
Ok, the real real kings were thinking of this set up before 3:00
true Gamers know of this one.
BRING BACK LAST RESORT KOMALA
High Koality clothing sent me
I read “viable” on the thumbnail as “wable”
Komala deserves a Drop Bear forme with Sheer Force
Koalas were given three stomachs to digest meat, and they used every single one of them to digest leaves with absolutely no nutritional value
"which means it is considered to be asleep at all times, very accurate to real koalas"
I don't know why I thought you were gonna say "real Australians".
