Let us freaking hope! Because if everyone begins to learn it, especially the defensive ones, then stall strats will begin again, which not many are especially fond of...
@@Real_AnimA I use Garganacl on my team sometimes and I can say that Salt Cure is already pretty good for it as is. It doesn't need another overwhelming tool in its arsenal just because. It's the first time stall was given a huge blow, after all.
There's 2 things in the DLC that i'd like to try out. 1. Dripplin using it's move that slows each turn for 3 turns on a teammate with Lash Out and maybe also weakness policy and Trick Room. 2. Use Kommo-o with Clangerous Soul and Flamigo with Co-star for the easy double omniboost. It's essentially a weaker but much easier to pull off version of the Dondozo and Tatsugiri + Flamigo strat.
@@olivergro7105 oh definitely but hopefully you can supplement the team with other pokemon that have good (or as good as you can get) matchups into it and have them knock it out first. Either that or perhaps a steel Tera on Kommo-o with bulletproof (to block shadowball) can help? But this might all just be wishful thinking/copium.
Say what you want about burning jealousy, I used it on my Flareon as a Zacian Nerf in Galar. Since so many people lead with Zacian and he gets his intrepid sword boost, Burning Jealousy burns him- and Flareon resists all of Zacians Stabs. This is a move I have been hoping comes back!!
I do think a fair amount of the Isle of Armor tutor moves will absolutely come back. And the one I'd love most would be is Baxcalibur potentially gaining Scale Shot. Teaming up with Alolan Ninetales with Aurora Veil and potentially other Snow users like Mamoswine could make Snow teams extremely threatening, both in Singles and Doubles, which I'd absolutely love to see! Edit: So it seems that Baxcalibur does learn it actually. My god is this gonna be huge!
@@supermannygamer2003 Galarian Darmanitan was extremely threatening in Singles because of Gorrila Tactics and Calyrex-Ice was extremely threatening in doubles because of Trick Room teams, so it's not like Ice types were never scary. It's just that they're extremely unfortunate most of the time. But Snow has given them a new lease in life. With them pairing up with the best Snow setter in the game, even the most meh of Ice types can gain tons of relevancy just like that!
@@supermannygamer2003 I wouldn't call immediately, but yes, it does give their viability a fair amount of damage, especially ones they could've avoided by being literally anything else.
Now that the DLC is out, here's a few buffs that happened besides the mentioned in the video: - Ninetales (both forms) now have access to Baton Pass. - Shiftry now has Wind Rider. - Empoleon FINALLY got Defiant swapped for Competitive. - Torterra can now use Shell Smash, Grassy Glide and Headlong Rush. - Infernape got Drain Punch.
im honestly quite interested in Farigiraf. because you said Rillaboom getting Grassy glide back would buff it a lot. but Farigiraf have Armor tail (prevent priority) and Sap Sipper (Absorbs Grass type move) so maybe it could be a good counter to it
Scorching sands, on typhosion both forms is what I'm hoping for. Regular typhosion has really poor type coverage so it would help a lot, and for the hisuan form it's another move that can status the opponent and increase the power of infernal parade.
@@sleeper9550 Meh, nobody complained about Gen6 Greninja. Shadow Tag would be great. Infernal Perade + Scorching Sands. Delphox needs Scorching Sands,Energy Ball and Moon Blast and it's immediately good if paired with Life Orb.
@@Nosretepgren was literally banned in singles in gen 6. shadow tag typhlosion-h would be stuck in ubers in singles. vgc i’m less comfortable commenting on bc it’s not a format i play or follow. as for magic guard it’s kinda an absurd ability gf have been a lot less willing to distribute since gen 5 ended
@@atiquezzamanrussell5351 it only works if they set up on the same turn as you using Burning Jealousy, if you switch in on a setup move and they don’t set up next turn it doesn’t burn. You could also accomplish this same thing with Will-O-Wisp much more reliably.
As if Weavile hadn't had enough with gen 9. Not only the same typed Chien-Pao was introduced here, with better speed, an actually great ability, now you wanna give it Triple Axel too. RIP Weavile
Talking about Glimmora and Meteor Beam, my immediate thought was how cool it'd be if like Solar Beam it got to charge faster in, say, Psychic Terrain, but then I remembered unlike Solar Beam it has that special attack buff, so it not being able to quick-charge like SB was actually a pretty good way to balance it and other charge-moves (stuff like Fly and Dive as well, they have the added benefit of a turn of invincibility)... but THEN I remembered that Archaludon brings that new move that pretty much does exactly that! And while it might be exclusive to Archaludon for now, I'm BETTING that move will spread to other Pokemon as time goes on! So now, imagine if Meteor Beam actually could quick-charge on Psychic Terrain-teams! It'd give primarily rock-types more synergy with Psychic Terrain and could create a push to make them a combination like rain-teams with electric-types or sun-teams with grass-types.
If the paradox form of terrakion follows the pattern that we've seen with Iron Leaves (grass/psychic) and Iron Crown (steel/psychic), a rock/psychic mon with quick charge meteor beam and STAB expanding force could be deadly!
@@foofootoo true, I didn't think of that, but at the same time, that'd also somewhat require Paradox Terrakion to have a decent special attack stat (which, looking at Iron Leaves, they decided to give it only base 70), and for Game Freak to give it access to Meteor Beam in the first place, if they feel Beam-type moves don't make much sense on Paradox Terrakion and thus don't give it any, that'd be that.
here’s an idea that might have already happened Rillaboom @ Grassy Seed Ability: Grassy Surge Tera Type: Grass - Grassy Glide Oranguru @ Choice Band Ability: Symbiosis - Instruct if the ability works as It’s described that would be pretty powerful
6:56 Burning jealousy was actually an option to shut down Zacian Zacian would get +1 at the start of the battle because of its ability,if you predicted the zacian lead correctly you could burn zacian Some incineroar did run that move
For the love of god, aradactyl needs brave bird. I know it won’t happen, but there are so many broken pokemon that Buffing older gen mons shouldn’t be a problem
I'm really hoping that they add some tutor that gives event exclusive moves (ex. Sludge Wave Gengar). Was a major feels bad having a special/event Pokémon being converted to a "normal" Pokémon upon transfering into SV
Even if Dondozo gets Toxic, it will still have counters (i.e Toxicroak if its only attacking move is Wave Crash, or more likely a bulky Magic Guard Pokémon like Clefable), but still then the issue is that Dondozo would drag games obscenely long. I think it would be much funnier if Tatsugiri learned toxic instead of Dondozo, as that would almost be like a slap in the face
I hope that all of the moves from the Isle of Armor will be accessible in the Teal Mask DLC. I say this because, unless I missed something, they only confirmed Grassy Glide, Poltergeist, Burning Jealousy, Lash Out, and Toxic, which is from Gen 1. Sad to hear that Grassy Glide got nerfed to 60 base power. Granted, it could be worse. Still, I am glad to have that move returning, especially for Rillaboom. I assume Meowscarada will be able to learn this move. It'll be interesting to see how well Brambleghast performs with Poltergeist. Maushold would be neat to see gain Triple Axel. I'm excited to see which Pokémon from Legends Arceus and S/V(including those introduced in the Teal Mask & the Indigo Disk) will acquire which of the Isle of Armor moves. With Toxic coming back, I hope that there will be other moves coming back, such as High Horsepower, Mystical Fire, Steel Wing, Aqua Tail, Iron Tail, Blaze Kick, Water Pulse, Heal Bell, Defog, Roost, Knock Off, and Scald.
Weavile's already heavily outclassed by Chien-Pao to begin with. So it should at least keep one niche instead of it being replaced forever unless you're playing a lower tier or something.
Scorching Sands Skeledirge, Toedscruel, Sandy Shocks, Rising Voltage Sandy Shocks, Bellibolt, Grassy Glide Brute Bonnet, Expanding Force Espathra/Farigiraf, these are some of the cool options we could possibly get, with some busted potential in terms of power/support. Not to mention the mons that weren't in SwSh that may get access to these moves! So exciting!
you know what would shake the meta at its core right now. the return of pursuit or a more powerful version or pursuit because it's hard to punish switchers easily and pursuit would completely change team comps
The teal mask dlc has just came out, and Cramorant might be viable! This is because it’s gulp missile ability can paralyse ground types and (although I haven’t checked yet so it’s just a theroy) maybe even Ghouldengo as well!!!!
Seems kind of counter intuitive on GF's behalf to first limit the amount of 'mons with access to Toxic only to then just go "Just kidding, here's the Toxic TM" and all who could previously learn it can do so again.. It's probably gonna have a more limited distribution this time around
@@malakimphoros2164 Ever since Rillaboom's reign of terror in gen 8 I've been praying that it gets grassy glide because it's easily the worst Tapu since Koko is used a lot, Lele was one of the most popular wall breakers in gen 7 and 8, and even fini was a staple in stall but bulu had nothing going for him in singles or doubles. While I can see why priority grassy glide from bulu might be to strong, he only has 5 attack over rillaboom and is probably just as bulky because of his smaller hp stat so I don't know if he'll even be better than rillaboom I just wan't him to have something.
So, one thing I like to do is run choice scarf modest indeedee with expanding force because firing off a psychic hyper beam is not only fun but turns a lot of the ghost types in the meta into fodder because normal type.
GF: What we learned from Gen 8 when we had busted leyends that made a Starter Pokemon strong as a legendary with a single move? Beta testers: Nothing... GF: That's right! Let's do it again! (Koraidon, Miraidon, Meowscarada, Skeriledge)
If you had poltergiest over Shadow sneak on bramble u wouldnt be able to hit flutter cuz of booster energy being consumed . Unless it dies to seed bomb or whatever grass move bramble gets.
For me the best movesets I've found for dragonite were dragon claw, dual wingbeat/fire punch, extreme speed, d dance. If you have enough power the resistance steel types have isn't usually a problem. But swapping fire punch around is a preference thing. Hopefully the fact that many pokemon just don't get toxic anymore means that the move was outright removed from their learnsets. Dondozo getting something like that I'd a special kind of bull.
I find it funny that Ghost does not have strong physical moves, but Ghost was a physical type in the first three gens. (Shadow Ball for Physical damage anyone?)
Imagine Flip Turn on Dondozo - it would have an option to swap out and spit the Tatsugiri out where it was. I doubt it would happen but would be very refreshing for Dondozo gameplay. Speaking of Dondozo if you can predict the turn it swallows Tatsugiri, you can use Burning Jelousy to burn it while doing some dmg. Plus Burning Jelousy have perfect accuracy unlike will-o-miss. Oh and you can have Assault Vest mon with Burning Jelousy but not with the status moves. This might shift the meta and make Dondozo use Water Veil or use Fire Tera over other options.
A lot of the stuff does look quite promising indeed. However, it just feels like it's filled with reasonable assumptions and slight leaps in logic. Since the DLC isn't out yet and since DLCs aren't physical to get early, datamines won't happen until the next day and a half or so. So, we just've to hope that some of the stuff there does make it, like Scale Shot Baxcalibur because that just sounds amazing!
@@Hammerbruder99 Indeed! Also, that may or may not open up the possibility for Baxcalibur having it too, which if combined with Alolan Ninetales, could legitimately be an Ubers threat in singles and be insanely capable in doubles.
Man, the cool stuff i see makes me want to get back into Violet, but I've just been so disillusioned by Pokemon lately, both in casual and competitive contexts. Maybe i can hunt a few more shinies...
I don't think it'll be particularly viable but if Torkoal gets Burning Jealousy you could pair it with something that learns Swagger, then you've got a Burnt + Confused opponent, seems like a fun little combo.
And the burn doesn't reduce the confusion damage I'm pretty sure it just halves the base power of attacks so you get to cancel out the attack boost while keeping the increase in confusion damage which can stack up quick with the chip from burning jealousy itself and the burn it inflicts
Scale shot is stupidly good on Garchomp too ironically because Garchomp can’t increase it’s speed without it and it’s basically better than outrage if it hits more than 3 times
One thing I did in gen 8 was use prankster sableye with leer to reduce the defense of all Pokémon aside from sableye by one stage activating lash out while making it hit even harder.
Another use of lash out could be on weavile, honchkrow, and bisharp, since their best dark move is night slash, which is only 70 base power as opposed to 75. In RU prior to shifts, one of the best pokemon was Tauros-Paldea-Aqua. Even after shifts it is still good and probably the best answer to Weavile. Weavile could use lash out on CB to punish Tauros for switching in, and because Weavile isn't too common right now, not running intimidate is not optimal.
hey foo, can you make a video of Lurantis getting buffed in the Teal mask? it just recently got superpower as an egg move and everyone seems to think it still doesn’t
duraladon gets and evolution, the dragon gym leaders ace pokemon, the gym leader that could rival champions pokemon gets an evo, thats going to be overpowered as hell
I know that Rising Voltage is literally programmed into SV, but is not possible to be learnt by any pokemon (The only way you can use it is by getting lucky with metronome), so it's very likely it will be returning. I really hope Ampharos gets it so that it can get overshadowed by Vikavolt anyway!
Ogrepon has that gimmick that if it tera, it boosts the stats of its team so maaaaaaaaaaybe jealousy might see use but that depends on ogrepon and even then you need to predict the tera turn
Somewhat likely given the fact that it's extremely possible that they'll make the player go through a loading screen because of them now being in a different region. And since said region is smaller than Paldea, there's some hope, at least.
@@BulletBillBowser And it's fair to think so, even if I don't completely agree with everything relating to it. The fact that they're trying their best to have somewhat decent graphics and such, even if it's mostly only on the DLC areas is a nice enough gesture in my eyes.
I’m a little worried about Dragapult getting Poltergeist, it would run Ghost Terablast just because it didn’t have good physical ghost stab, and even though it required a terastallization, it was still a popular pick. If it gets Poltergeist, it won’t need to Tera to use a good physical ghost move, and that could be pretty scary.
Dragapult didn't get Poltergeist in Gen 8, so I think it's realistic that this is still the case in Gen 9. Dragapult is well balanced right now and a strong Ghost STAB attack would completely change how it's played. The rise of physical Dragapult... I definitely like Will-O Hex sets more.
@@Hammerbruder99 Well, Zamazenta didn’t get Body Press in Gen 8, and now it does, so I wouldn’t say it’s off the table. Physical Tera Ghost Dragapult got play at worlds this year, so I think it could be pretty terrifying if it got Poltergeist. We’ll see how it goes.
@@pjanderson4876 It didn't get Poltergeist... Again. It clearly feels like an intentional decision by Gamefreak at this point. It'll likely never learn it in any game by the looks of it.
@@GoinGreninja I saw that, honestly I’m a little glad, but never say never. Next Gen it’ll learn Giga-spook Hammer, a 160 base damage physical ghost move that only has the drawback of not being able to use twice in a row.
Steel Roller is used by the Fairy Starmobile and Iron Treads for now and it works exactly the same as it did last gen and it still freaking sucks! If only they fixed it next gen or something...
@@GoinGreninja Oh, I didn't realize. But it would be indeed nice if it would get buffed. Skitter smack should also be 100 accurate and 80 power. Hopefully that would happen someday.
Even nerfed grassy glide's damage is so powerfull thx to terra it comes very close to knock out kingdra and iron valiant however gurented oh ko after SR chip It also helps that water,fairy is quite common terra type rillaboom will rise once rain teams starts to go out of hands

@@foofootoo it would be Gen 7 meta all over again
@@foofootooBulu would REALLY like Play Rough too
@@malakimphoros2164 Ever since Rillaboom's reign of terror in gen 8 I've been praying that it gets grassy glide because it's easily the worst Tapu since Koko is used a lot, Lele was one of the most popular wall breakers in gen 7 and 8, and even fini was a staple in stall but bulu had nothing going for him in singles or doubles. While I can see why priority grassy glide from bulu might be to strong, he only has 5 attack over rillaboom and is probably just as bulky because of his smaller hp stat so I don't know if he'll even be better than rillaboom I just wan't him to have something.
I’m still holding out hope for bolt beak koko lmao
So, one thing I like to do is run choice scarf modest indeedee with expanding force because firing off a psychic hyper beam is not only fun but turns a lot of the ghost types in the meta into fodder because normal type.
Doubles spicy extract defiant STAB lash out? Sounds pretty busted
You can't activate your own Defiant unfort but spicy extract + lash out sounds dastardly 😂
GF: What we learned from Gen 8 when we had busted leyends that made a Starter Pokemon strong as a legendary with a single move?
Beta testers: Nothing...
GF: That's right! Let's do it again!
(Koraidon, Miraidon, Meowscarada, Skeriledge)
Legit ANY special attacker that can use meteor beam could use it to great effect because of Tera. Tera rock meteor beam sounds fantastic.
"Wet urshifu might suffer a bit" I hope you suffer just a bit for bringing the phrase wet urshifu into existence
“Next week” my guy it’s coming out tomorrow
Teal Mask releases this Wednesday and Basculegion was introduced in Legends Arceus which is Gen 8 so its not a Gen 9 Pokemon
I was so confused he said next week when it’s actually like 36 hours
I KNEW IT!!!!
i said Rillaboom was gonna get back Grassy Glide in the DLCs and no one believed me
Rest, Dive, Toxic, protect dondozo, hmm...
huh technician breloom now pretty good
since priority grass move
I LOVE the Thievul named Legoshi 🤣
If you had poltergiest over Shadow sneak on bramble u wouldnt be able to hit flutter cuz of booster energy being consumed . Unless it dies to seed bomb or whatever grass move bramble gets.
For me the best movesets I've found for dragonite were dragon claw, dual wingbeat/fire punch, extreme speed, d dance. If you have enough power the resistance steel types have isn't usually a problem. But swapping fire punch around is a preference thing.
Hopefully the fact that many pokemon just don't get toxic anymore means that the move was outright removed from their learnsets. Dondozo getting something like that I'd a special kind of bull.
I find it funny that Ghost does not have strong physical moves, but Ghost was a physical type in the first three gens. (Shadow Ball for Physical damage anyone?)
It was so bizarre that it was physical... especially since the Gengar line were the only ghost types!
@@foofootoo And then Dark became special. That might have been a good time to swap those two
i desperately need Overqwil to get Flip Turn
Imagine Flip Turn on Dondozo - it would have an option to swap out and spit the Tatsugiri out where it was. I doubt it would happen but would be very refreshing for Dondozo gameplay. Speaking of Dondozo if you can predict the turn it swallows Tatsugiri, you can use Burning Jelousy to burn it while doing some dmg. Plus Burning Jelousy have perfect accuracy unlike will-o-miss. Oh and you can have Assault Vest mon with Burning Jelousy but not with the status moves. This might shift the meta and make Dondozo use Water Veil or use Fire Tera over other options.
Interesting points! I imagine Flip Turn will just not work once Tatsugiri is in the mouth
Rillaboom already had a presence in VGC without Grassy Glide. This might make it top 3 if not top 1.
Yeah it really could be the best, but Incineroar might have something to say about that
I hope the pastebin that came out the other day with all the moves added to pokemon is true cause theres A LOT of good changes
Yeah it's a lot of what I was talking about here. Some real game changers in there!
A lot of the stuff does look quite promising indeed. However, it just feels like it's filled with reasonable assumptions and slight leaps in logic. Since the DLC isn't out yet and since DLCs aren't physical to get early, datamines won't happen until the next day and a half or so. So, we just've to hope that some of the stuff there does make it, like Scale Shot Baxcalibur because that just sounds amazing!
@@GoinGreninjaAnd my beloved Garchomp would get its Scale Shot back! ^^
@@Hammerbruder99 Indeed! Also, that may or may not open up the possibility for Baxcalibur having it too, which if combined with Alolan Ninetales, could legitimately be an Ubers threat in singles and be insanely capable in doubles.
I think Burning Jealousy was mostly just good for countering zacian since it got a stat boost upon switching in
Rising voltage can be good on future paradox mons
Actually for the U.S. the DLC is coming out tomorrow in the evening
Really hope only poison type learn toxic and some few exceptions like quagsire
Man, the cool stuff i see makes me want to get back into Violet, but I've just been so disillusioned by Pokemon lately, both in casual and competitive contexts. Maybe i can hunt a few more shinies...
I don't think it'll be particularly viable but if Torkoal gets Burning Jealousy you could pair it with something that learns Swagger, then you've got a Burnt + Confused opponent, seems like a fun little combo.
And the burn doesn't reduce the confusion damage I'm pretty sure it just halves the base power of attacks so you get to cancel out the attack boost while keeping the increase in confusion damage which can stack up quick with the chip from burning jealousy itself and the burn it inflicts

*Taking Notes*
Threatening Rillaboom with Rillaboom. Okay, check. Now I gotta find a way to deal with Urshifu.
ah yes, coming out next week (yes, I know this was probably recorded a week ago)
Garganacl with toxic would be broken
Scale shot is stupidly good on Garchomp too ironically because Garchomp can’t increase it’s speed without it and it’s basically better than outrage if it hits more than 3 times
One thing I did in gen 8 was use prankster sableye with leer to reduce the defense of all Pokémon aside from sableye by one stage activating lash out while making it hit even harder.
Yh I saw baxcalibur got scale shot and I had the biggest dumb grin on my face because I already have loaded dice icicle spear
Another use of lash out could be on weavile, honchkrow, and bisharp, since their best dark move is night slash, which is only 70 base power as opposed to 75. In RU prior to shifts, one of the best pokemon was Tauros-Paldea-Aqua. Even after shifts it is still good and probably the best answer to Weavile. Weavile could use lash out on CB to punish Tauros for switching in, and because Weavile isn't too common right now, not running intimidate is not optimal.
1:42 foofoo i think you meant threaten urshifu with priority and not rillaboom yeah?
Yup!
My most exciting part is shiny hunting trevnant and that new 🍎
hey foo, can you make a video of Lurantis getting buffed in the Teal mask? it just recently got superpower as an egg move and everyone seems to think it still doesn’t
Always good to see an upload from foo. By the way, have you seen the good news for best boy Dripplin?
I have seen the thing. Oh boy.
arboliva seed sower + left overs > leech seed +mega drain/strength sap + toxic + protect
oof that sounds mean
I wish the bush had the same attack an special attack. I it wouldn’t be good but that would feel nice.
Spicy extract Scovillain with a burning jealousy partner... my god
Pursuit needs to come back to reduce ghost power a bit I think. But it will hurt psychics
duraladon gets and evolution, the dragon gym leaders ace pokemon, the gym leader that could rival champions pokemon gets an evo, thats going to be overpowered as hell
I know that Rising Voltage is literally programmed into SV, but is not possible to be learnt by any pokemon (The only way you can use it is by getting lucky with metronome), so it's very likely it will be returning. I really hope Ampharos gets it so that it can get overshadowed by Vikavolt anyway!
I really hope they change the availability to Toxic as a TM from a universal TM to one for mostly Poison types.
Wider distribution on only poison types would be perfect tbh
@@foofootoo Exactly, more power to Poison types in competitive, and not giving to Pokémon who have no business using it like Landorus or Heatran.
The fact Umbreon couldn't get it in BDSP is a crime
It's dex entries literally mention it having poisonous sweat!
@@OriginalGameteer Yeah, either Poison types or Pokémon associated with poison. There is no need for every Pokémon to have this.
love the Bloodborne reference on your Clefairy
16 minute Pokémon buff video 😩😩😩
Ugh I just jizzed
😂
Coaching and Bulk Up was something i used in Shield. It makes Groudon a pain in the neck to deal with. Bulky Annihilape would be just as good.
11:07 Davinci Render failure, love it 😂
>.>
Grassy glide is base 60? Do any technician mons get it? No way they're going to give it to breloom right?.... right?
uh oh
Next week? It's on the 13th literally 2 days
I was too slow getting the vid out :(
WET Urshifu 😂
1 SD and bax could be able to sweep a entire team with loaded dice scale shot.
Burning jealousy will be good for Tera raids, but that’s it
Ah good suggestion!
2 questions:
Does burning jealously burn if the opponents stats were raised by defiant?
And does lash out work after bulldozing yourself?
Ogrepon has that gimmick that if it tera, it boosts the stats of its team so maaaaaaaaaaybe jealousy might see use but that depends on ogrepon and even then you need to predict the tera turn
You released this video 8 hours ago and said the teal mask comes out next week...it comes the day after tomorrow
I think burning jealousy will be common anyway as an accurate fire spread move powered up by tera and Chi Yu’s ability
It's too weak tho heatwave has more bp at cost of slightly less accuracy
@@sleeper9550 choice specs might just push it over the edge I’ll test run it myself
Do you think they buffed the frame rate?
Somewhat likely given the fact that it's extremely possible that they'll make the player go through a loading screen because of them now being in a different region. And since said region is smaller than Paldea, there's some hope, at least.
@@GoinGreninja My faith in game freak putting out a decent 3D game is really low
@@BulletBillBowser And it's fair to think so, even if I don't completely agree with everything relating to it. The fact that they're trying their best to have somewhat decent graphics and such, even if it's mostly only on the DLC areas is a nice enough gesture in my eyes.
I’m a little worried about Dragapult getting Poltergeist, it would run Ghost Terablast just because it didn’t have good physical ghost stab, and even though it required a terastallization, it was still a popular pick. If it gets Poltergeist, it won’t need to Tera to use a good physical ghost move, and that could be pretty scary.
I'm a huge Dragapult fan and would love it if it got that but for now, I'm a bit skeptical of that pastebin or whatever it was.
Dragapult didn't get Poltergeist in Gen 8, so I think it's realistic that this is still the case in Gen 9. Dragapult is well balanced right now and a strong Ghost STAB attack would completely change how it's played. The rise of physical Dragapult... I definitely like Will-O Hex sets more.
@@Hammerbruder99 Well, Zamazenta didn’t get Body Press in Gen 8, and now it does, so I wouldn’t say it’s off the table. Physical Tera Ghost Dragapult got play at worlds this year, so I think it could be pretty terrifying if it got Poltergeist. We’ll see how it goes.
@@pjanderson4876 It didn't get Poltergeist... Again. It clearly feels like an intentional decision by Gamefreak at this point. It'll likely never learn it in any game by the looks of it.
@@GoinGreninja I saw that, honestly I’m a little glad, but never say never. Next Gen it’ll learn Giga-spook Hammer, a 160 base damage physical ghost move that only has the drawback of not being able to use twice in a row.
It would be nice if steel roller would become back with halved damage, but it can be used outside of terrain and it doubles damage on terrain.
Steel Roller is used by the Fairy Starmobile and Iron Treads for now and it works exactly the same as it did last gen and it still freaking sucks! If only they fixed it next gen or something...
@@GoinGreninja Oh, I didn't realize. But it would be indeed nice if it would get buffed. Skitter smack should also be 100 accurate and 80 power.
Hopefully that would happen someday.
@@turkoositerapsidi Agreed.
Correction teal mask is out September 13th not next week
I wasn't fast enough getting the vid out, recorded this last week and edited over the weekend lol
Id love to see some of the falling off mons get some boons like maybe dragon dance or headlong rush for garchomp
Hell yeah Glizzy Glide returns!
I hate playing against Grassy Glide.
Ohhh but Tera Grass Dondozo with Toxic will be so fun to use!!
lol I think we have very different definitions of fun
Even nerfed grassy glide's damage is so powerfull thx to terra it comes very close to knock out kingdra and iron valiant however gurented oh ko after SR chip
It also helps that water,fairy is quite common terra type rillaboom will rise once rain teams starts to go out of hands
Spicy extract lash out would work?
