A few things Jim that will help you. 1.) Grassy Glide is not cancelled out by switching Terrains. It’s a regular 70 base power Grass attack that has a secondary effect of being Priority in Grassy Terrain. So if you switch Terrains, for example, Tapu Lele switching in to set up Psy Terrain, it reverts back to just a regular attack and will still hit. 2.) 90 percent of Bisharps are Choice Band leads with with Beat Up because it’s so strong in this Gen and Bisharp really can’t do much else in the tier. It doesn’t have the breaking power without band anymore, has competition with SD Weavile, and without Pursuit, not as good utility anymore either. 3.) Dragonite is usually Boots with DD, Roost, EQ, Ice Punch because it literally beats everything in the tier with just Ice Ground coverage. Some variants are Duel Wingbeat instead of Ice Punch but that’s rare. Some Choice Band Dragonite are around too but also rare. 4.) Please stop trying to hard switch Regieleki into moves lol. The guy is paper thin and is meant to be pivoted in thru U-turn, Flip Turn, or Teleport. Hope this helps.
Several times our heroes came close to learning that switching Lele into Rillaboom does _not_ block Grassy Glide, but they expertly dodged the lesson each time. Gaming without even realizing it.
It's interesting seeing Jim experience a tier he's unfamiliar with. Gen 8 is probably the one I know best, so it's weird having a better understanding than Jim when usually I'm relying on him to explain what's going in in Gen 3
@CabbageMuncher13 It was very low in gen 8 UU viability rankings , I think 2 gens of powercreep will probably push it lower (staraptor went from UUbl in gen 7 to PU in gen 9 (but eventually rose to NU))
hello jim, last video you said buzzwole is not your favorite. I would like to inform you that he is in fact a funny pokemon. he is a giant bug with muscles and that is funny. i hope this changed your mind and youll use him some day.
Starting 2025 with regieleki this is proof that he is gaming folks jimothy cools new year resolution is to never lose to a jirachi or a tyranocif in gen 4 ou
He's already collabed with both! He had Joey and Blunder on for an episode of his podcast, and Blunder had Jimothy on his channel to do some co-op battling on showdown!
Gen 8 to me feels like a more balance focused version of Gen 3. I love playing gen 8 and I started to play gen 3 because of you and it scratched a similar itch

I am glad Jimothy is guiding the ADV Heads to a new generation. For we are mere sheep in his flock, folks.

I liked Gen 8 a lot
I'm outstanding in my flock
STARTING 2025 RIGHT WITH SOME GEN 8 COOP GAMING, FOLKS
"this guy could use a few chinese proverbs" that's being added to my vocabulary. thank you Jim.
that's tenable
Love this new format Jim! Your new ability, As One, has made me too nervous to eat berries.
I had a nice bowl of fruit snacks to enjoy when sitting down for this video. I have since starved.

the regileki store called,
they need more teams without an electric move switch-in
One must imagine Regieleki without Tera Blast Ice
In gen 10 it wont have tera blast but his electric attacks will be less powerful than in gen 8 due to transistor nerf
@ I have thought about Eleki without Tera Blast and the Transistor nerf and honestly it might be UU again
@CabbageMuncher13 It was very low in gen 8 UU viability rankings , I think 2 gens of powercreep will probably push it lower (staraptor went from UUbl in gen 7 to PU in gen 9 (but eventually rose to NU))
The banter goes so hard, 2025 is the year of Jimumby Cool

JIM WITH MUMBY ON JIMOTHY GAMING?!?!?! This is very epic
jimothy co op is hilarious keep it up 😁
The diversity of teams you encounter is absolutely crazy in this gen
Jim did not notice qaq qaq qaq qaq snuck into a later game after being afraid to make a move
Two? Two australians?
Double the funny
truly unprecedented
Such a thing has been witnessed before, but never outside of New Zealand.
Two chains
How nice of Furret to join Jim for some gen 8 OU
Gen 8 to me feels like a more balance focused version of Gen 3. I love playing gen 8 and I started to play gen 3 because of you and it scratched a similar itch
7:07 he’s an awkward fellow after all
It's Munby Monday, folks
Coop gaming is so much fun! Happy new year 🎉❤
12:57 love the Australian No here
Jimmy using Electro Kid as a defensive pivot is hilarious
I hope one day we can get a coop with Jimothy Cool and Jimothy Gaming.
They're saying he's the next Jimothy Cool
42:25 that Luigi fellow:
Huge fan of the Munby guest appearance. Ultimate gaming, folks.
Jimmy Dazzler is a name I have not heard in a long time...
Muk is pleased with these new cooperative gaming innovations.
18:44 Rotten beast warning
Gen 8 OU is an incredible metagame
I used to use trick ring target klefki with rising voltage Reginald Electrical back when crown tundra first dropped. Fun times.
This comment is incomprehensible
Perhaps if your third eye is still closed.
Gen 8 cooperative gaming, folks.
Love this new format for you. Munby is turning into your blunder
Hi Munby, I love the energy you brought to the table I hope you're having a delightful 2025
I’m glad Jim is enjoying gen 8
14:36 earthquake hit ‘em below, i let my enemies know 🗣️
I am so down for this Jimothy Gen 8 arc. I have always secretly quite liked Gen 8.
Just started playing Gen 8 OU by your command
Looks like a fun metagame to be honest. I'd rather play against toxapex stall in gen 8 than clefable in gen 4.
Mumby could do a great furret impression
"only by gaming we can illuminate the truth"
Gen 8 is the cif that keeps on cifing.
Jim ya soothe my soul bud 🎉
Happy new year, Jimothy.
MUNBY LET'S GO!!!
Monday mumby in this year of the monkey? Insane.
They say gen 2 is like gen 8, but much older
every electric titan has its day
King Dragon sends his regards 🔫
hello, jim. have you tried the newest gen 3 tier in gen 3 RU? it's getting quite popular recently and rapidash, possibly a horse, is top tier
love the coop
Jimothy the enemy of Gen IV and the respecter of Gen VIII the world is twisted and turned upside down like a malamar
you gotta use the RevEleki (CB + Explosion)
why both surf and weather ball on pelipper?
accurate water move if the weather is changed due to hippo or mr. cif coming in.
One of these moves is for a literal rainy day, and the other is for a metaphorical rainy day.
Munbycif gaming
Watch out for Regicif.
Specs pellipper is insane
gen 8 stocks are up
Future cig ?
More Munby he is a good chumma
Disappointing of Jim to platform Furret after his comments towards Zigzagoon.
folks, it’s finally the year of the Muk. insane.
What is cif?
Cifn't
@@jimothygaminghow is cif?
More magcargo vids pl0x
Why is Reginald being electrocuted?
no ground type? that's tenable
Honestly, if you strip out the one mechanic that makes Gen 8 unique, it’s actually not a bad format
Dynamax was cool
I’m confused and scared, this is not a Monday, therefore this is not a Muk Monday!!
id like VIII more without Urshifu
