People who are obsessed with how BKC looks are outdated (superficial, aesthetic preoccupations), real obsessors want to know what watch he's wearing (deep, horological insight).
keldeo has seen a lot of new experimentation outside of specs, with sets like taunt mystic water or calm mind being especially potent on offense style sixes, I don't really agree with mega metagross falling off that hard to begin with, you just can't mindlessly click meteor mash into a zapdos which really punishes gross alongside cofagrigus. I've come to really appreciate semi-stall 'fat' metagross sixes that abuse partners like chansey to force a long game where gross is repeatedly punching holes into the opponent
Here in Catalunya, the letter X often makes the "ch" sound. So if MZard-Y is "yard" then MZard-X is "xard", pronouned as "chard" ie "charred". Also we're literally in a drought.
In the draft community a lot of players do use the term xard (and yard), so it's funny to me learning that it can be pronounced in a way that makes sense lol
You have such natural visual charisma, especially when you're simultaneously talking and emoting. It's like I'm watching Oscar Isaac with Jake Gyllenhaal's eyebrows and Ryan Gosling's (most recent) haircut, and they've captured the Nightcrawler style visual performance perfectly. Pardon my indulgence in the video and not the video's topic; I just find myself thinking you could tell me literally anything with the same performance, and I would be captivated the whole time.
I’d love to see a vid on the rise and fall and re-rise of mega altaria - I played ORAS a lot in current gen so I remember it’s rise and fall but I’m curious what made it come back recently
I swear I would love it so much. Haryama would still have it's uses of course (as it's a great Tyranitar counter) but Armaldo would pretty much outclass it for most teams, the dual utility of Spin + Knock and the sandstorm immunity is just kind of nuts, and it dogwalks Claydol with it's HP Bug (and Harden + Battle Armor is still a nice niche to allow it to completely counter Curse Snorlax. Probably would not happen very often with the other moveslots being more valuable, but still something that exists) Armaldo would legitimately be a good mon in OU and probably one of the best BL (if not maybe OU proper). What a cruel fate to live in this terrible reality where Anomalocaris couldn't make his comeback in glorious fashion ....
Side tangent, i agree with you that y-ard is ridiculous, but i can not let go of the irony that this is coming from a guy that shortens "pocket monsters" to pokes.
Pokeaimmd's older brother kind of vibe. Horrifically handsome, I'm actually shocked. I'm more shocked to learn Metagross has fallen off, I love the development of meta games.
I was thinking it in the last video, but this new angle has confirmed it. That looks like a very respectable CD collection. On topic, I always enjoy hearing about formats I haven't given much thought to since they left the spotlight.
Great insight, I would also argue that with Keldeo I can’t help but feel that future meta games (especially gen 7) really showed it to have fatal flaws and while there’s obviously no pex to sit on it all game in ORAS, players have just got better at playing around it over time and since it’s quite one-trick, they way for it to go is down. Now it’s still way too strong to fall much further than where it is right now I think as if people stopped prepping for it properly, it would come roaring back in no time. Also, now I can’t shake the idea that Mega-Metagross (while incredible) really isn’t that busted after all, maybe it would even be manageable in gen 7 ou?? Would probably be a good addition to the meta game as a great Mega-Mawile, Magearna and Kartana check. Gen 7 OU while good has felt a bit stale for a while now, could be the thing the tier needs?
Have you watched Cidade de Deus(City of God I think), it's one of the best Brazilian movies. Also Tropa de Elite(Elite Squad) and O Auto da Compadecida (A Dog's Will, I had to research what is the English title), those 3 are the Holy Trinity of Brazilian Movies. I don't know if they translate well, but here in Brasil they are very beloved.
I have seen City of God and I liked it! I know of the others but haven't seen them, though I'm sure I will. I haven't seen many yet, but my favorite of the Brazilian movies I've seen is Black God, White Devil
Hey man, I'm a pretty casual gen 3 ou player, I'm thinking about getting into gen 4 ou because of your content. Do you have a recommendation of a first team to try out in that gen ?
I really like most of the teams posted in this thread, the samples are solid but these have a bit more to them I find: www.smogon.com/forums/threads/jirachees-dpp-ou-invitational-team-set-dump-thread.3723585/
Old good thing becoming old bad thing becoming new good thing is a cycle as old as time, truly. Listening to you lose your train of thought when your phone went off was pretty funny because I feel like it almost never interrupts you but here it like totally derailed you lmao. Also, best of luck on your move man. Moving can be stressful af so I hope things are good on your end.
Are you going to return to having gameplay in your videos as opposed to blog-style content? I know you've been getting a lot of comments about your appearance but I preferred the gameplay. Thanks either way.
yes, my tight sched wrt my upcoming move means it's currently easier to just let the phone cam roll, but I have several vids planned for when things calm down that will be using replays
It's literally that I know / figure that at this point you are showing face cause you had gotten comments that you look good, and that I'm not even complaining cause you are a gorgeous man, don't get me wrong I wanna see more of you, idek what I'm tryna say but BKC if you do really read comments, perchance would you ever talk about monotype? I've seen you talk about everything but as far as I remember I don't remember you ever taking about the monotype game play.
I'm so proud of the burning for answers joke, yet I cannot brag about it irl. This is the the curse of the competitive Pokemon player.
It's so sad! Smh my head
BKC you fool we can't put your videos on as podcasts anymore because we're all infatuated with you

He's wearing a choice band. He's forced to speak only about mmetagros and krldeo

that moment at 5:30 where you’re trying to explain three ideas simultaneously is extremely relatable

2nd comment of asking BKC about
the hypothetical potential of
knock off rapid spin armaldo in ADV OU
(it cannot hold both moves)
I swear I would love it so much.

But hariyama is cooler than armaldo @@sephikong8323

wouldn't you get crippled by paralysis tho ?
Why not both moves?
This man looks like damien salvator I just realized
Legit looks like BKC could be related to Daniel Radcliffe lmao.
Anthony Green for me
I am incredibly, deeply sorry for this comparison, but it must be done. It cannot go to my grave alone.

The standard balance structure that you mentioned does not like to switch into a Secret Sword.

nah bkc is way better than any terf garbage
4:14 LMFAOOOOOOOO i knocked my cooking pan off from laughing
I was thinking it in the last video, but this new angle has confirmed it. That looks like a very respectable CD collection.
On topic, I always enjoy hearing about formats I haven't given much thought to since they left the spotlight.
Idk if this is like a tour thing but every team I see high ORAS ladder gets decimated by a Modest Specs Keldeo
yard and xard
and u a real one for giving a shoutout to bisexual bisharp
It doesn’t hurt that the guy that dictates my thoughts on competitive mons has movie star looks.
Can you make a video with your updated ORAS tier list? The one on smogon hasn’t been updated in quite some time.
Any nicknames for shiny mega metagros?
4:03 I suggest running from those people.
hi BKC do you consider making a video on improving Endgame scenarios? i like your vids btw
Oh yea tell me more hot boy (my last game of showdown was 7 years ago)
Hold on a sec i am still falling asleep to the moltres video😅 have we been getting actual videos for a while now? 😂
I'd be interested on a video on how Keldeo went from a "perfect breaker" to pretty much unviable in recent gens. It even received buffs!
Toxapex (I assume there is more to it, but toxapex seems like a genuine massive part of it)
@@Dragostorm21in gen 9 at least, toxapex and keldeo are in the same tier (UU)
@@NicholsMediaPress Gen 7 toxapex is a different beast
If anything, Latios fell off the viability ranking hard, now being multiple places and even a tier lower than Latias
Great insight, I would also argue that with Keldeo I can’t help but feel that future meta games (especially gen 7) really showed it to have fatal flaws and while there’s obviously no pex to sit on it all game in ORAS, players have just got better at playing around it over time and since it’s quite one-trick, they way for it to go is down.

So what gens do you keep track of? 2-6? What is it about modern gens that you don’t like as much?
I keep track of pretty much all except 9 because I played them all seriously at some point, and I even try to know the basics of 9 for fsg
4:15 excuse me, sir 😂
My video idea got made YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Hey man, I'm a pretty casual gen 3 ou player, I'm thinking about getting into gen 4 ou because of your content.
Do you have a recommendation of a first team to try out in that gen ?
just check the sample teams it’s probably the best place to look. There’s enough samples there that you should be able to find something you like
Yeah I'll just do that I guess
