Hisuian Goodra is woefully underrated. I remember using it in Radical Red by slapping it with an Assault Vest to boost its already amazing Special Defense, and it was quite possibly the MVP on my team with how bulky it was while also being able to hit moderately hard right back. You ask me, it deserves more love and attention.
In my top 5 favorite with Zoroark, ninetales, overqwil, lilligant
Oh and Rapidash and Wheezing of course
I hope Feraligatr gains a regional variant someday in the future (Water/Dragon)
My boy deserves all the love
It's gonna be Water Dark if he gets one.
@@christianbrunswick6932we already got 4 Pokémon of that type combination . I’m pretty sure they don’t want to do another water/dark starter since we were all complaining when they decided to give us a third fire /fighting type starter in gen 5
@@daltonoakleyjr391 Yeah but that's the type you would give it to mirror the Fire Ghost type that's already been made in its generation. Also Theirs only 4 water dark type pokemon and there is room for more.
Okay serious question why do people continuously want to keep putting dragon type on random pokémon I understand the dragon type is cool but come on let's be a little bit more unique I mean no disrespect when I say this of course
Alolan Persian have fake out and Parting shot, Maybe he is not the best regional form but its definitely better than the normal one, and its fun to use.
Fur Coat and that support pool is phenomenal in doubles. Definitely can hold its weight in a fight
Kantonian Persian was actualy great on gen 1
Don't forget STAB Foul Play. It can have literally no Attack investment and hit like a truck by using the opponent's Attack stat instead, letting it either be a passive defensive pivoter, a speedy attacker, or both (Foul Play vs physical attack mons and Parting Shot pivot away from special attack mons).
You should be ranking Cross-Gen evolutions next (Crobat, Politoed, Scizor, Steelix, Weavile, Electivire, Togekiss, Gliscor, Mamoswine, Gallade, Ursaluna, Annihilape, Dudunsparce, Kingambit, etc.)
Kinda hoping Alolan Sandslash woulda bump into pretty good with how his ability Slush rush provided in 2 v 2 battles, but alas it is consider bad by it's typing. I still love it tho.
19:19 Fun way to start the Phenomenal Tier and this is one of those cases with me falling in love with one of my favorite Pokémon all over again! Plus, I love the way you used the Secret Key sound effect from “Super Mario World”.
Keep up the awesome work and videos love the video
Interesting ranking
Regional variants is a really cool idea!!!
sirfetch'd is just so cool, and so badass
Alright, using Steiner Math in a Pokémon video wasn't on my 2023 bingo card, but I ain't mad at it.
My favorite Regional Form is still Alolan Marowak
I agree I was very sad it wasn’t in in the game.
Persian is just dark not normal dark
Ofc
There really should be more starters with regional variants. Also, they gave Decidueye the shaft again with its variant.
How about shifting the original starters around?
Fire (steel or rock) Blastois
Water (fairy or poison) Venusaur
Grass (flying or poison) Charzar
please just leave the Kanto starters alone for a change.@@Shimatzu95
Glowking should absolutely be top of phenomenal. Eat moves to the face, hit back, chilly reception into a sweeper, heal with regenerator, repeat.
I’ve always felt that Hisuian Lilligant has been slept on. Legit my second fav Pokémon of all time
Who is number one? Love that Pokemon btw
I didn’t see anyone else comment this, Alolan Persian is a pure dark type, not a dark/normal type
It's always a good day when you get to see the Scott Steiner math
Wugtrio is not a regional variant. It's a different species.
It deserves to be shat on
So? Convergent pokemon aren't going to last past Scarlet and Violet.
@@aliastheabnormalI'd be surprised if we don't see more of them myself.
@@Ryodraco It's basically regional variants meant to fill up the pokedex and none of them are competitively viable. Which is what Game Freak only cares about for the past ten years.
@@aliastheabnormal if all they care about is competitive viability then why do so many non-competitive pokemon continue to be made? I'm afraid I don't get that argument. And if they are dex filler, then that just gives extra reason to make more in the future.
i think cursula it is so underated, i like to use it with assault vest to deal with especial attackers, but i was really surprised that wasnt on the lowest tier because most peaople think its really bad
Facts
It's not the worst but not the best. It's underwhelming compared to its prevolution but it's not a hot garbage. When knock off came back corsola also fell off as well and sit in same ballpark as it.
It hits like a truck but its physical bulk and speed are those of an LC mon. Granted, its special bulk is better but still hindered by that base 60 HP stat.
Perish Body is also not good on this thing. Not only does it only activate when a contact move is used against Cursola (aka most physical moves), the most commonly used physical moves either switch the target out (U-Turn) or kill Cursola outright (Knock/STABs).
Weak Armor is a way better option, allowing it to be a decent Rocks suicide lead in ZU since it can tank a hit and strike back hard with its great special movepool. But even in ZU Smogon's analysis for Cursola couldn't bother writing something more elaborated than "Don't use Cursola." which should say something
Alolan raticate over Persian is crazy already
Runegrius over anything is crazier
Basculegion, Galarian Darmanitan, Hisiuan Sneasel and Sneasler and Alolan Muk are my favorites. Awesome video idea bro.
ALSO HISUAN LILLIGANT.
Words can't describe how happy i am that Samurott got a buff, with his Hisuian form
Hey Mystic I know you're a busy man, but are we going to get a best team for US/UM No restrictions?
Wugtrio isnt a regional form tho
There's 3 convergent forms bro whatever
You mentioned Rock polish weakness Policy, I used that on Donphan back in Gen 7!
Samir it was my favorite Pokémon and I lost my mind when it got a Hisuian form. Now I love the Hisuian form more as a fav
Talking about Cursola: “base 30 speed isn’t good”
Trick Room: *exists*
A slow speed is only good if you build your entire team around trick room. It's taking a bad stat and making it good. But if Trickroom is down, the mon sucks.
@kyleellis1825 Oh it’s terrible outside of trickroom, but trickroom teams are honestly quite strong in recent generations (namely Gen 8 where it was introduced)
My favorite variants are actually the past Paradox Pokemon (next to alolan Ninetales). My favorite Pokemon of all time, Jigglypuff, finally got useful as Scream Tail. Roaring Moon, Walking Wake, Great Tusk and Slither Wing are cool too
Paradox pokemon aren't variants
Perfect timing, was thinking about building a region variant team
Alolan Persians ability makes it a nice pivot because it got the amazing parting shot, together with toxic and foul play. Just missing knock off and recovery for the full support tank experience, and the dark z move crystal making parting shot a no-downside-healing wish was a ridicoulus aspect tbh. It kinda blanks every physical move very well without much investment and plays to its speed, its a really good designed pokemon.
Even though he’s bad, I love my boy Alolan Persian. Garfield irl
I think a-persian is pretty good fast support Pokémon in doubles, fast icy wind and fake out is surprisingly valuable
Yay my 2 favourite regional form mons are in phenomenal
Gotta the Scott Steiner parts 🤣
Wugtrio isn't a regional variant
I think Rapidash is definitely better than Wugtrio, and Alolan Persian is better than Raticate for sure.
The fact alolan Sandslash and Dugtrio are below Galarian Stunfisk is a sin
There's also another move Mr Rime can learn via TM to help with its slow speed. Thunder Wave. Anyways. The only thing that might make me change the ranking of Runerigus and Sirfetched is the requirements for them to evolve. Galarian Yamask needs to have taken a certain amount of damage and then you need to go to a certain part of the Wild Area. As opposed to Galarian Farfetched needing to get 3 critical hits in a battle. Which can be helped by giving it a Leek to hold and teaching it Focus Energy via TM.
3 minutes in, first Pokémon and I'm already angry. Alolan Persian is very good. 😤😤😤
BTW, Alolan Raichu can also go with tapu lele expanding force
Convergent, Paradox, and regional evolutions technically aren't regional forms. They are their own Pokémon.
Don't think that's the point of this video.
That’s really just nitpicking the video is for fun
Convergent & Paradox Pokémon are just desperate measures by gamefreak to fill up more pokedex slots without doing anything innovative, they are basically the same as a regional form or evolution.
And the regional evolution still stems from a regional form, and you couldn’t get it without the regional form so it also belongs in this video.
Paradox and regional evolution Pokémon I can understand. Since yeah, they are their own thing. But “convergent” Pokémon are basically regional variants. You can’t piss in my ear and tell me it’s rain.
You're your own Pokemon!!!
Technically Wugtrio is not a regional variant same with Toedscruel and Sinistcha, The pokedex outright states that they are not regional forms for each of them, it's why they have literally different names
20:29 what is that a reference to?
That, my friend, is a reference to the classic SpongeBob episode, “Bubble Buddy”!
@@lynseyshrewsbury7973 thank you!
There’s one reason to use Alolan Raticate
Cheesing Ultra Necrozma with F. E. SP, AR (Alolan Raticate’s FEAR)
G Weezing neutralizing gas worked with slaking and regigigas in doubles
What about the Convergent forms, theyre basically regional forms that pulled a shadow the hedgehog
Alolan Raticate is my favorite variant of all, I don’t care if it’s bad and has a 4x weakness. I love it
Convergent evolutions and Paradox Pokémon shouldn't be in this video
Agreed
Convergent evolutions you could make an argument for but paradox pokemon?! Yeah no
Given that they only had two Paldean Variants. I’m a bit worried they might be phasing out the idea. Then again they could be focusing more on convergent forms.
Nah they made the paradox forms aswell so i think its fine
i doubt it considering how well clodsire went down. i could see pokemon just making loads of wooper variants for each region though (which i wouldn’t complain about but would like to see some other species get some love too. really hoping for a regional shroomish variant )
@@mimigigihereclodsire is God
@@turboshazed7370 applaud the clod. admire the sire
Watch them make a Bidoof variant now
Cool!!!❤❤
I can agree with this list.
We need more variants you could do an evee varint an get the evolution that wee dont have yet like bug an ghost an dragon
I completely forgot that Avalugg would be in the Fan game I want to make if I could make it. Basskely it's Gold and Silver the 2nd remake with all the Reginal forms ever included.
from just gen 2 or all gens?
@@Entwined.Destinies All gens. hence Aavlugg.
I figured the romhack would have Hisuin forms so that would just leave a few left out so there In there two.
Alolan Persian is 1 a pure dark type. And 2 a special attacker. He carries until the end game really well but no it can't finish
Persian is pure Dark. Seems like someone didn't finish their research.
Mystic doesn't do research 😂😂
@@Dragonstorm1234you're an annoying kid
gonna be honest and say when i first played Sun and Moon and saw a black colored Meowth i thought it was a rare. at the time i didnt know it was a regional variant
Had to parting shot out when the first pokemon in Horrendous was Alolan Persian smh Y_Y
Electrode-H is awesome tho, it has more stab now
And removes ground weakness and immune to powder moves, mainly spore! It’s def one tier higher than horrendous imo
Where's Galarian Zapdos?
I honestly forgot about Galarian rapidash
22:49 "Despite only 100 Special Attack" Mystic, that's 135... not 100.
Hisui electrode is definitely better than regular electrode. Having stab to hit ground types is definitely better on a fast frail Pokémon.
Unburden meaning Acrobatics in Japanese gave me a chuckle. Can those that get the ability use Acrobatics?
Considering that Galarian Rapidash is the sole reason I chose Shield over Sword, I am enraged by your placement of it.
It is NOT "horrendous." You just need to strategize and know how to use it. Galarian Rapidash almost single-hooved beat Piers's gym, and was a valuable teammate for Raihan's double battle during my playthrough.
Not to mention, aside from Alolan Ninetales, Galarian Rapidash is far more beautiful than anything you ranked in Phenomenal or Banworthy.
I kinda feel like we should just go back and rename the Unova pokemon as regional variants. Same with stuff like Bellosom just being a Johtonian Vileplume.
The fact stiener math was used
"people like to use alolan muk because it's a solid pokemon"
MY GOOD SIR VERY CLEARLY THAT POKEMON IS LIQUID, VISCOUS AT BEST.
I think that Basculegion is the strongest Regional Varient but Convergent Pokemon shouldn’t count as they are completely different Pokemon who only look like already known Pokemon the Creaters even said they aren’t the same.
18:15 my go to Pokemon for all sv raids. None is better
I think you missed Annilhilape, a banworthy Pokemon
That’s a straight up cross-gen evolution
Not a regional evolution
@@goGothitaLOL Thank you for correcting me. I almost forgot that.
Galarian Corsola, Cursola, and Runerigus should've all been Ghost/Rock types. Johtonian Corsola is part rock type to begin with, the white part of its body the Calcium part of Coral, and it keeps that in it's Galarian form! And with its stat spread being what it is, being an even more fragile glass canon fits Cursola perfectly! (Imagine a Stab boosted Cursola Meteor Beam...)
As for Runerigus, Unovan Yammask and Cofagrigus should've been Ghost/Rock or at least Ghost/Steel because Egyptian Sarcophagi were most commonly made of *STONE* or Metal! Though for Cofagrigus's golden color, perhaps Ghost/Steel fits it a bit better. But Runerigus is literally a TOMBSTONE, and to evolve it you have to go under this massive STONE archway in the Dusty Bowl, where lots of ROCK types can be found!
Why is Gamefreak so afraid of giving us a Ghost/Rock type? It's not like they haven't given pokemon defensively shitty types before, Looking at you Iron Leaves and your _seven_ weaknesses with one of them being a quad weakness to Bug.
SN: Gen. 9 had countless lackluster Pokemon.
Yeah like six.
No hisuian avalug? 😢
Aside from the legends Arceus boss fight it sucks ass
Hisuian Electrode isn't weak to flying-types so it isn't weak to everything grass is.
AlolanPersian is faster than icineroar and is immune to prankster but i geuss
Perrserker.
@@turboshazed7370lmfao i didnt even realize i put the wrong region
Don’t understand how Galarian Rapidash and Alohan Sandslash are both horrendous…
Galarian Rapidash should have been fire and fairy.
I didnt watch this vid jet but i gess number one ursaluna
I’ve 6-0’d with runerigus before just weakness policy trick room it’s better than it looks
@MysticUmbreon can you please film a series where talk about the best teams for Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness? In the series, you could talk about what are the best Pokémon to add to your team based on what eeveelution you picked. This would make for an awesome video series.
Am I high or did he forget to talk about Ursaluna?!
I’m pretty sure you are high. I am too but I heard him mention it.
Are we not gonna talk about wiglett line and toadscool line arent regionals and completely different pokes. Convergent evolution is a natural phenomenon best example are sharks and dolphins both evolved a triangular dorsal fin.
Who are we kidding convergent species is regional variants in all but the new fancy name that’s real close to the original
@@animejerk05 similar name completely different animal where have I heard that before..... oh ya in latin.
@@dudeguyrockfan it's a separate animal by lore only its design is 90% inspired by a previous pokemon they should be included
Alolan Persian is better than at least Raticate, Dugtrio, Wugtrio, Rapidash, maybe more. It has Fur Coat, then for moves it has Snarl, Switcheroo, Quash, Foul Play, Parting Shot and Knock Off. It's still not great, but it has options.
Alolan Dugtrio isn't terrible either.
Outdated. Sneaseler has been banned recently.
Why persian the ugliest but most lovable variant?
Please have the name of the pokemon you're talking about somewhere on the screen, especially when you don't actually name them sometimes, it's very jarring to watch this while doing literally anything else and have no context on something.
This is my biggest pet peeve!!! 99% of the time TH-cam is playing in the background while I do something else. Just leaves me clueless
Convergent Pokémon and Paradoxes aren't regional forms
Convergent forms being here aren't a big deal there's only 3 so far. Agreed with the paradox mons tho..
Convergent evolution aren't variants, welcome to another episode of Mystic doesn't know pokemon
Edit: Alolan Persian normal and dark? 😂😂😂
He's entertaining. You're not.
This guy is seriously overestimating Basculegion huh
It's seriously threatening dude.
Iron thorns is not a regional variant. He’s a paradox, Pokémon.
This mf put Perrserker, Cursola and Galarian Stunfisk OVER Alolan Sandslash? Nah this is a bad joke.
X4 weakness to two types will do a Pokemon dirty. G Stunfisk is shit though so I am with you on that.
when you think about Mystics logic, youd think He would LOVE huisian Electrode. after all, if its not the fastest thing in the pokemon world, its utter crap...
It sucks though.
It bothers me unnaturally how this guy can't pronounce Purrserker properly
Same here. The way he pronounces terrastilize is worse, though. When you make content every day and presumably for a living you should be able to read.
@@AceManning18or maybe just maybe folks pronounced things differently
@@Lulu-ew7ohThought about it. Could just be where Mystic is from.
Hisuian Electrode does not deserve to be this low. It may not have gotten any changes in stats or abilities, but one shouldn't underestimate how good of a pairing Electric/Grass is. It's the perfect combination for a fast pivot, it can Volt Switch on Grasses and Dragons that resist it and threaten the Grounds that block its switch with Leaf Storm. Alternatively Soundproof gives it the unique niche of being a SubSeeder that isn't countered by sound moves.
It's currently sitting in NU, where It's the fastest mon in the tier and competes with Jolteon as an Electric pivot that hits less hard overall but isn't as dependent on Tera
His list is generally all over the place. You can tell he is def not a super good battler. He rates noob traps like eviolite corsola very highly even though they have so many issues. Having obstagoon as low as it is was also hilarious.
algorithm B)
Still waiting for Charizard to be corrected to the fire/dragon type like it should've been from the start.
That alone makes all the extra attention justified
Idk this video is kinda mid for all the mid opinions
Dude the way you pronounce Perrserker should be illegal. It's berserker with a P.
And the way you pronounce terastilize is even worse.
No it's purr (like a cat)
serker
