Shadow Gengar hits so hard, even normal gengar at that one shots a LOT of stuff. I find it's best to run a Double Nuke moveset and keep shield advantage for it. I lead with Shadow Gengar get a couple shadow claws if matchup decent and hopefully catch a move on my safe swap mon. Pressure shields with other two mons and Gengar Nukes almost everything Shadow punch buff Is insane but I find it lacks the ability to one hit KO stuff so Sludge Bomb Shadow Ball it is. Focus blast is an option but Ghost is a great offensive type and sludge bomb hits pretty good. Focus Blast takes a while to charge and that's not really my play style so might be workable. Personally not comfortable with it I have a Gengar with Lick and Psychic I'm thinking of building unfortunately it's a lucky mon so not the most optimal IVs. Might build if I encounter an Audino nest
@@ogvagoz8913 He's talking about the theory that Gengar is an evil version of Clefable. If you look at their models, they are very similar and Clefable has mysterious origins from space. It's kind of interesting and I do see the connection myself.
Hey henry wondered if you were thinking of running Hisuian Typhlosion at all? I noticed lass night that its one of few things to get night shade and also has wild charge coverage for the gators
It's a bummer that half of the top 20 UL meta needs XL candy when there is no 1500cp limit format available. Guess I'll just binge HSH for two weeks instead :)
@@omarholder9036its awful mode every game bronzor , Shuckle and cottone there is no cheap safe switch and most of the top pokemons have very expensive second move
Ive never EVER closed the app during a battlr NOT ONCE!!! Ijust dont understand why people do so. Is there a small chance that u dont get the L on your record
They closed the app so many pogo players are salty losers, also since shadow punch hits so much harder u are prolly better of with sludge or focus as the 2nd move
Shadow gengar is amazing, highly recommend it for some fun sets! Glad I get to showcase it for you all once again
Gengar is too cool in UL, I think it’s only second to shadow hundo pidgeot last season haha
Great battles man
Bro how long did it take you to get that R1 gengar is the biggest question? Was it a one time thing or you raided hard for those IVs
@@LittleVVarrior I definitely got pretty lucky but I was grinding grunts pretty hard. In the end I got solid ivs for GL and UL
@@firestar7344your shadow Gengar video was my favourite from last season, thanks for the amazing content
Nice. We have clefable and dead clefable.
Lmao I see the resemblance
a reference to a certain theory nice
"Shadow shadow claw"
"Shadow shadow punch"
"Shadow shadow ball"
Sounds so cool!

Ever heard of a dark fact about gengar & cleffable? 💀
Whats the fact?

4:40 nah, that was a force close, i would have deleted the app being the opponent :D
Sludge Bomb seems a better 2nd move. Coverage against normal types and 80 STAB damage with that much of attack stats enough to KO many things.
It's quite nice that it has so much variety of nuke charge moves!
Shadow punch from this thing used to be less threatening than a dragon claw form giratina, look what we have here
“Cooked by every Lickilicky in the 3 surrounding zip codes” has me ☠️
"Oh no, It's Lickilicky again". Henry, you are amazing. 🔥
What a catch in the final game!! Looks like running shadow punch+focus blast is the way to go with SP doing so much damage!
Absolutely incredible! I used Shadow Machamp on the lead w DP & Payback and had amazing success. So much fun! Thanks for the inspiration Henry!
Forget Glass Cannon, S. Gengar is a Glass Nuke
If Shadow punch is now a viable charge move for Gengar, then why would you have Shadowball as the 2nd charge move?
Yeah should definitely run Sludge Bomb or Focus Blast 💀💀💀
55 vs 100
The most shadow shadow Pokemon of all time: Shadow Gengar (the Shadow Pokemon) with Shadow claw Shadow punch and Shadow ball

Someone call the police, I just fought Swampert Double Charm
Will a normal Gengar (not shadow)work with this team?
Gengars already pretty glassy, so shadow is often preferred to max out damage
you forgot to mark shadow punch as an elite move

You can play little Galar cup on the cheap, trust me
@@omarholder9036 bronzor and shuckle are very affordable 👍
@@omarholder9036better bring 3 bronzor/schuckle counters
@@omarholder9036its awful mode every game bronzor , Shuckle and cottone there is no cheap safe switch and most of the top pokemons have very expensive second move
@@omarholder9036aite imma trust you. Just built out a lil team and am giving it a try.
Isn't it better now to run shadow punch sludge bomb combo?
Personally if I ran it, I'd do sludge or focus blast
@@HomeSliceHenryI also tried normal haunter with shadow punch sludge bomb combo in Great league
Idk if it was intentional, but pairing clefable with its shadow twin shadow gengar is pretty awesome
Climbed a tone yesterday because the great league laggs much worse than ultra league and that double poison team was annoying to deal with lol
hello, nice video ! with this amazing rank 1. does anyone know what are the little animation that u can tap when facing a registeel ?
Shadow gengar with shadow shadow claw, shadow shadow punch and shadow shadow ball
i have a rank 1 return Dusknoir that this vid made me wanna try lol
Would sucker punch be better to use then shadow claw
Pangoro❌❌
Panda Bear✅✅✅😂
What About dragon warrior Po?
Run focus blast on gengar for some unexpected booms
I got lick on my ML gengar, do I give it shadow claw?
Yes, 100%. Shadow Claw outperforms all of Gengar's other fast moves, even with the new Sucker Punch.
Omfg this hits like a truck! I confess I wasn't expecting so much damage, wow
I have shadow gengars for both leagues, but I need that special event to get shadow punch. Don't want to use my last 2 etms on them. 😔
why shadow claw and not sucker punch?
Firestar cracked as always
Respect the spice 👏🏽
Can you feature Galarian Moltres please?
I have the rank 1 ultra league non shadow , haven’t used yet
Same here, just haven’t felt like it’s useful at all
I use it in UL. Almost no other mon outpaces shadow punch.
We found a move shadow gengar can tank
Seeing Swift on Clefable always throws me off, got to get used to the new metagame.
I use my shundo Gengar in ML.
Its not good when lickylicky’s are around this season
Ive never EVER closed the app during a battlr NOT ONCE!!! Ijust dont understand why people do so. Is there a small chance that u dont get the L on your record
I've sent in some battles with a team that got me to 2425 elo, if you're I terested. And it has a buffed pokemon that you haven't featured yet in it
Excited to check it out!
@HomeSliceHenry Nice! This was however after I had recorded the battles, but I do have screenshot of it if you need it 😅
Is there an algo? Idk lead into a fuckin clefable like 4 games in a row….. with a poison in the back. Textbook algo.
Love my boy gengar let's gooooooo.
It's fun I am also pretty high up in elo, and just checked my journal, and realized I battled him earlier
I was the second opponent, did not have a fun time 😂
Was funny that you were running a copy of the team that HomeSliceHenry had earlier featured, too.
I’d ran double electric to good success in seasons past but forgot parabolic charge got buffed until seeing the video for the league rotation
Where have u been sir
They closed the app so many pogo players are salty losers, also since shadow punch hits so much harder u are prolly better of with sludge or focus as the 2nd move
They call it a balance update, but it won't be balanced till they stop cheap spamming by switching to a countdown timer for stronger attacks.
I like the new countdown timer,I think it makes debuff moves more viable and combo plays more fun
Whoa
