Bro wasn't even sure what move to use, he probably wasn't sure of what not effective and super effective mean, i think they are just a child or a guy who never played pokemon who just learned that pokemon showdown let's you make your teams with just a few clicks and that was enough to go here and make his dream team.
I expected a wish to avoid crits, or a body slam to get paralysis and secure a bit more. Forblaze would have won almost all of the times but yeah these situations are kinda common too.
If someone had told me a Duskull killed a Jirachi and Articuno alongside chipping zapdos to half health in a tournament, I wouldnt believe it no matter if Im high or drunk or not
I was gonna join the tournament and I assumed it was a bunch of people coming in from the gen 3 invitational just mercilessly stomping out people. I now understand that I shoulda just hopped in and had fun like these people.
absolutely one of the funniest showdown videos ive ever seen, adored the commentary and the preposterous sets. When the Ninjask also had giga drain i laughed so hard my chest hurt. Frankly i would pay $2708.35 to find out what Aggrontrio's last pokemon was
That first Skarmory was the real definition of "This is insane". But I have never seen anything like the Duskull family! That Cradily must have made the opponent break down mentally...
That first game was NUTS. Honestly, so many games during this tournament have been insane - it's a REALLY good time to be an ADV fan. Thank you Jimothy for all your incredible work for the community! (EDIT: That last game is even more insane. I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS AND ABSOLUTELY NO ANSWERS)
Ive watched pretty much all of the recent videos on the revival tournament and I must say I absolutely love it. It's actually gotten me back into playing showdown! Keep it up because I know pretty much everyone else loves watching these.
Let's go I love Dusclops and Duskull. I wonder if Duskull can work in doubles with its Levitate ability and access to Helping Hand to support boom and EQ while being immune to both.
The duo Dus was amazing. I had initially thought oeople were being unnecessarily mean for the last match... until I watched the last match. Interesting indeed
Super fun commentary, I gotta submit some replays for your ladder replay series. That game was like between two AI or something lmao it did not feel right. Felt like watching two kids battle 🤣
I don’t know who let the guy with the Duskull and Dusclops cook, but I’m glad they did because what they made was delicious. Dare I even say it’s a dish to die for!
Okay, these were a good time, but did people who have never played Pokemon before join a tournament? I am genuinely curious what happened to allow for this beauty.
I'm not even sure which player here had me the most heated. MVP Rose being LVP Lose and failing to just fucking click any goddamn attack on Duskull, Aggrontrio deciding that Giga Drain is the most powerful move in the game or Lucat2 being an actual goddamn cat on a keyboard. This video had me genuinely stressed out lmaooo
Since fighting is resisted by flying and the HP damage was minimal, its likely Venasaur was running hidden power fighting for coverage. The question as to why it was never used on the Cradilly is another question entirely.
That was greatly entertaining. I'm not sure which match was the most stupid/most 300 IQ one (i'm not sure what to use), the Cradily one or the duskull one ?
I wish I participated in this tournament. I had the impression that it would be too many good players but this is proving me otherwise. One single Blissey or Zapdos lead and these people are cooked.

Meanwhile: Giga Drain

I enjoyed all the matches, specially Duskull + Dusclops, great strategy.
And I must say that I suffered several brain damage watching the last replay
Love fun not necessarily meta highlights! Thanks for the content
I was genuinely so hyped to see Cradily! The moveset was... questionable lol, but I'm glad to see someone trying to make him work!
Really enjoyed the duo comms
The Dusclops enjoyer was insane
And it's genuinely excellent how well the double Curse ghost team worked.
@@Kejmurmostly worked because opponent switched out when he had a kill on duskull, still was pretty cool to see
True, but it was fun to witness anyway ;). @@ThatGuyThai
@@ThatGuyThai tbh they had three unrevealed mons in the back anyway
@@rajkanishumust've been gengar bannete and shuppet
That final match was a stoppable force VS a movable object.
Underrated comment
this is just true
😭😭😭😭😭
Good thing they were a match for each other, or it would have just been 'meta player stomps jank'.
I loved the: "Curse Dusclops is good enought so I'm going to run one and a half."
and it worked 😨
If Dusclops is so good, why isn't there a Dusclops 2?
@@KrazyKyle-ij9vb There is, it's called Dusknoir. Surprisingly, Dusclops 1 is probably better.
Dusknoir, more like Dusknah. Just break species clause bro.
@@KrazyKyle-ij9vbthere is, it's Eviolite Dusclops
The fact that duskull alone was used is crazy but tearing through half a team when dusclops could only muster a single kill was so unnecessarily funny
Due to the fact that Blissey provides zero serotonin, everyone is getting swept by special attackers
So true
Lucat2 was so traumatized by cradily he didn't know what to do.
I'm surprised he didn't have a single burn/poison/toxic status move, or a set-up move, in his whole team... :/
Bro wasn't even sure what move to use, he probably wasn't sure of what not effective and super effective mean, i think they are just a child or a guy who never played pokemon who just learned that pokemon showdown let's you make your teams with just a few clicks and that was enough to go here and make his dream team.
@@mrpiccionedivino5598 I see, I thought Jimmy showed pro players videos 😂 still very fun footage
@@NaxafaThis is round 1 of a 500 player tournament. Gonna be some players to weed out for now
the curse dusclops + duskull player is my new favorite showdown player
Omg hide
Crit+Freeze followed by Crit hydro pump followed by freeze followed by winning the game with hydro pump goes crazy
Ong bro
I expected a wish to avoid crits, or a body slam to get paralysis and secure a bit more. Forblaze would have won almost all of the times but yeah these situations are kinda common too.
@@Naxafaah, yes. CM Body Slam, my favourite set
@@dislexyc say thunder (in random battles jirachi always has body slam that's why i said that)
the game just didn't want him to win
The Duskbros guy is goated, give him the full prize pool, he deserves it
Giga Drain Ninjask to bait Roar Swampert!!! You're all sleeping while Aggrontrio is wide awake🔥
fuck man duskull is abt the most heat u could bring holy hell
Aggrontrio v Lucat2 was just two AIs pitted against each other and told to Pokémon battle like they’ve both been huffing tear gas
That match was stressful!
Giga drain vs body press
If someone had told me a Duskull killed a Jirachi and Articuno alongside chipping zapdos to half health in a tournament, I wouldnt believe it no matter if Im high or drunk or not
"This is insane" has never been more appropriate for that last game. What a rollercoaster lmao
19:18 THERE GOES MY HERO
Riveting gameplay in the last one. I enjoyed that time the player clicked Giga Drain
i liked that one turn where lucat clicked brick break
Cradily game is jawdropping
Lucat actually played that worse than a chimpanzee could have, genuinely embarrassing. Literal 4 IQ behaviour.
Ok but this is ACTUALLY insane though. The Double Curse was crazy
I was gonna join the tournament and I assumed it was a bunch of people coming in from the gen 3 invitational just mercilessly stomping out people. I now understand that I shoulda just hopped in and had fun like these people.
The Ninjask into Cradily had me convinced they tried to build a full BP team despite BP Clause lol
absolutely one of the funniest showdown videos ive ever seen, adored the commentary and the preposterous sets. When the Ninjask also had giga drain i laughed so hard my chest hurt. Frankly i would pay $2708.35 to find out what Aggrontrio's last pokemon was
That last game felt randomly generated idk how else to describe it
Two AIs deliberately trolling.
As someone else said, it's a stoppable force vs a movable object
Aggrontrio is a psyop by Iron Mugulis whereas Lucat is a psyop by Iron Chugulis
That first Skarmory was the real definition of "This is insane". But I have never seen anything like the Duskull family! That Cradily must have made the opponent break down mentally...
That's probably the first time they have ever seen a mon boost to X4.
That Cradily set fucking rocks. You know that must have been cooked by Verlisify in 2014.
tbf, that cradily is facing a cat pilot that randomly click on moves.
@@my.name_00 No, it’s just the average Cradily enjoyer skill level trumps anyone.
As a huge Cradily enjoyer, I popped off seeing my boy. Don't understand the Ingrain at all though... why not Toxic or Rest there?
lmao verlisify is peek cringe
@@madduxnagel6935 he probably didn't know that ingrain didn't heal you a bit for turn in gen 3.
That Dusclops + Duskull team was wild
That first game was NUTS. Honestly, so many games during this tournament have been insane - it's a REALLY good time to be an ADV fan. Thank you Jimothy for all your incredible work for the community!
(EDIT: That last game is even more insane. I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS AND ABSOLUTELY NO ANSWERS)
this was hilarious. the dusclops person knew what they were doing
Just gonna give Lucat the benefit of the doubt and assume they were drunk and sleep-deprived and also have never played a Pokemon game before
My money is on them being a literal child. It'd make sense considering the target demographic for pokemon.
also definitely possible lol @@user-lh7mt7zo7l
his controller wasn't plugged in and his little brother was playing and he was playing with the Mario Kart wii steering wheel
and were also passing through a difficult divorce
Nah, I refuse to see things from their perspective that is an argument for eugenics right there.
That last game one of a kind😂
Ive watched pretty much all of the recent videos on the revival tournament and I must say I absolutely love it. It's actually gotten me back into playing showdown! Keep it up because I know pretty much everyone else loves watching these.
same! very great stuff, very fun.
The dual commentary from you two is awesome!
Articuno: "this can't boreal!"
LOL
oh my god
Damn that giga drain team was fuckin hilarious 😂
I can't stop coming back to this masterpiece
I don't know much about ADV OU meta, but I feel like the more I learn, the more my mind will be blown by whatever happened in that last game.
Someone keep an eye on forblaze on em… that was a villain origin story
The Venusaur has Hidden Power fucking Fighting
Hits Blissey for a whopping 25%
I lost brain cells watching that last replay 😂
Honestly, I fully expected that Cradily to not even have an attacking move
Dear jesus. Curse spam has invaded ADV. Old Money will see this and dusclops stock will go through the roof.
14:00 bro I’d be so pissed literally the luckiest game I’ve seen this year.
Very happy with the dual commentary! Great video, Jim !
What a roller coaster ! A mixture of hilarity, tragedy and total confusion haha ! Thank you Jim and everyone for making this possible
Dude crit freeze, crit, freeze - what was that starmie on goddamn
Let's go I love Dusclops and Duskull. I wonder if Duskull can work in doubles with its Levitate ability and access to Helping Hand to support boom and EQ while being immune to both.
Thats kinda genius. I know Dusclops is decent in doubles alongside exploders. Also has imprison to prevent Protect
Duskull also has Icy Wind, Thief, and Destiny Bond. Those sound like great moves for the doubles metagame. But I haven't played it so I'm unsure.
That last game was like the famous quote of dipper pines "I coundn't have made it up even if I tried."
The last game was money winner worthy
Watching Articuno eat curses non stop from duskull is peak comedy. What kind of madman brings dusclops and duskull? Lmao
First game was Coughing baby vs Coughing baby
THE LONG AWAITED RETURN OF JIMOTHY!!
The cradily match is fucking wild
New Jimothycool video Duskull’s surprising role in the gen 3 OU metagame
The Dusknull team was such a Chad move
what in the absolute hell was that last game?? 😭
Easily the funniest video i've seen in a long time
you can see jim getting increasingly more angry throughout the matches LMAOOO
The duo Dus was amazing. I had initially thought oeople were being unnecessarily mean for the last match... until I watched the last match. Interesting indeed
Thank you Jimothy and Thank you Xtina. You both are the dusclops and duskull combo I need to start this week off. Very gaming. This is Insane
Really loved the commentary! Id love to see xtina play!
Luca was surely throwing? Was he that traumatised by Cradily Jank?
Jimochi sounded like he was having a stroke for every unreasonable play those players were making lmao
the classic three starters-water (or whatever fills the starter type trio) -pseudo-gengar team structure, a staple of competitive pokemon
I haven't laughed this much from pokemon content in a while, God bless
Would love to see more of you two together
I’ve been many places and seen many things, but I ain’t never dun seen such a pog team comp as the one with the Dusclops combo!
the ninjask also using giga drain was too much for my heart
6:27 and 15:10 for legendary battles
“Unfortunate” doesn’t begin to describe the Regirock series
If you just roll a dice and chose your move by absolute randomness you're still playing better than Lucat
Bro was humiliated
Wait wasnt that what he was doing?
Maybe they were pretending they were in the Battle Palace
@@gelisconbruh that facility's the worst 😂 but even with battle palace rules you're probably still playing better than lucat
That duskull and cradily was a mind warped
Super fun commentary, I gotta submit some replays for your ladder replay series. That game was like between two AI or something lmao it did not feel right. Felt like watching two kids battle 🤣
I don’t know who let the guy with the Duskull and Dusclops cook, but I’m glad they did because what they made was delicious.
Dare I even say it’s a dish to die for!
Okay, these were a good time, but did people who have never played Pokemon before join a tournament? I am genuinely curious what happened to allow for this beauty.
I'm not even sure which player here had me the most heated. MVP Rose being LVP Lose and failing to just fucking click any goddamn attack on Duskull, Aggrontrio deciding that Giga Drain is the most powerful move in the game or Lucat2 being an actual goddamn cat on a keyboard. This video had me genuinely stressed out lmaooo
honestly the most stressful one was the guy who got haxed by starmie. the others were just funny
Rose not clicking tbolt on the duskull pissed me off lol.
I’ve missed your commentary! It’s the reason I subbed lol.
the duskull set changed me.
Cradily intimidation factor goes crazy.
as someone whos favorite ghost types are the duskull lines i am proud of omghide
Since fighting is resisted by flying and the HP damage was minimal, its likely Venasaur was running hidden power fighting for coverage. The question as to why it was never used on the Cradilly is another question entirely.
bug never resisted poison wtf
@@rajkanishu
You're right I had a brainfart and confused poison resisting bug as bug resisting poison.
Correcting the comment now
Fighting doesn't resist Fighting either...
@@globalistgamer6418
Typo there. Meant to write flying, not fighting.
Flying resists fighting
Perfection.
MY BABY BOY DOING ME PROUD
i LOVED the dusclops and duskull guy -- i was sad mine wasn't picked but now that we've seen these,,, i understand why
The cradily opponent is fucking hard to watch
I was wondering why no one was talking about the first 2 matches but that last one was actually unhinged
Dying of laughter at that Dusclops game LMAO 😂
The lesson for today: bring Blissey.
I love all your knowledge of the metagame here.
high tier memes, god tier commentary, highest level play
Somehow that fireblast was the most unexpected part of this whole video 😂
That was greatly entertaining. I'm not sure which match was the most stupid/most 300 IQ one (i'm not sure what to use), the Cradily one or the duskull one ?
The duskull team was definitely 1000 IQ
this is amazing
I wish I participated in this tournament. I had the impression that it would be too many good players but this is proving me otherwise. One single Blissey or Zapdos lead and these people are cooked.
The high level players will be present in further rounds, tho.
ingrain cradily and fire blast marowak is the new meta. Im tellin you
Pre-Alolan Marowak
That last game will give me nightmares
Duskbros was my favourite experience since birth. Last match was..hard to follow 😂
bro said "👁", "💀".
🤣 I love how this series always has a combo nobody thinks of
