CB gross is essentially a win button low on the ADV ladder. People have no idea what to do with it. Speaking of low on the ADV ladder, I'm excited to watch your new series and I hope I'll run into you while laddering.
@@shady8045 protect is great against it, especially if they're eager to explode early. Not relying on a defensive core that falls apart after one mon goes down unexpectedly is good practice in general and helps against cb meta. Obviously Gengar also works if your confident in your prediction skills, but it's risky since meteor mash wrecks you.
And now he also has done a video about one Pokemon running one very specific move (protect) for over an hour He sure does love to stretch his videos to get to the 10 minutes mark
Question about shadow ball: Doesn't it have merit over HP bug since it absolutely destroys Gengar trying to be cheeky, hits harder on starmie and claydol and still is a hard hit on celebi? I can see why HP bug is preferred, but shadow ball seems to have it's merits
I'd personally probably run HP Grass for Swampert. Yes, I know it's a physical attacker, but Pert is difficult to pass by if you don't Boom without HP Grass
Anyone mind explaining what the “CB Gross-Mag” rule is/why it’s a thing (mentioned @20:38)? Why wouldn’t you want both a CB Gross and a Magneton? Is it just to limit overall fire/ground weakness? I know the meta game is pretty fleshed out but to say that it’s a *rule* seems odd, unless it’s literally banned.
[2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: @Kevin [2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: do you actually think [2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: you could make an entire video [2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: on the 4th move on cb metagross [2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: LOL
i can build in gen 7 and 8 very effectively i dont use other teams besides mine have a nice chunky teambuilder. Cant build for dpp at all i listened to oneof your vids other daythe regiice one were you tried to make it work and you said if you cant beat TSS. Its not really meta. So i built my own TSS team and im finaly getting somewere would love ot share it with ya get ya advice see what i can change.
Shoutouts to Finch for inspiring BKC to make this lol
Finchinator exposed yet again
"Our Metagross is shiny because c'mon. Anyway, there are a couple things ... *begins to explain Meta moveset*"
No truer words XD
TH-cam wanted to know my thoughts on this video and I chose "useful, informative, entertaining" and of course, calming.

The fact that Im still new and have only really battled low on the ladder, I’ve sure had a great time with CB Gross lol
what do you do against it, use skarmory?

Me after hearing intro:
Hey BKC bet you cant make another greatest pokemon battles of all time video
patience! I'm workin on it
@@BKCplaysPokemon awesome! I did it! Your welcome everyone we got one coming soon lol. Thanks for the content bkc appreciate it
Gotta love switching in cb metagross to bait the opponent to switch out for gengar, just to shadow ball it right away
Basically, the fourth move slot is "which pokemon do I not want to use boom or risk mash miss on?"
Only BKC is based enough to make a 30 minute long video about ONE move slot on ONE set on ONE mon.
and make it fascinating
And now he also has done a video about one Pokemon running one very specific move (protect) for over an hour
He sure does love to stretch his videos to get to the 10 minutes mark
Everything about this makes me happy. Thanks Finch! Without you we would not have gotten this art.
the fourth move on ADV choice band metagross can be rock slide, double-edge, hidden power bug, toxic, sleep talk, or brick break
you forgot sludge bomb
Such a good video title.
Kid, another display of gorgeous content. God bless...anywayssss, I'm just gonna hunker down. This is Maverick...signing off.
Ayy was looking forward to this video when I heard you mention it in the last one.
This is why this channel is the best
I love these videos, thank you for doing them!
Watch out for BKC running shadow ball and sludge bomb in an upcoming tournament

agility so you exploit hariyama's knock off
It's FINK
Dumbass

awsome
Real ones run hidden power steel
why not tpunch? is it just bc of mag? great vid btw
Hmm what would tpunch hit? Starmie I guess but I think mix metagross isnt a thing either with CB
@@EarthSpirit.easyzdota oh i didnt know it was special. my idea was hitting waters + skarm
@@jonrita2344 ah yeah haha the special/phy split didnt happen yet 😂

meta doesn't really need cb for anything other than skarm and appreciates not being locked in to moves if it can help it
les get some dpp vids bro is what im workin on now lol gen8 is so easy.
Haha sludge bomb go brr
What about Return/Frustration? No recoil + almost the same BP
cool vid though
Return misses on alot of 2HKO's he explains in the video like bulky dd gyradaos i believe
where´s sludge bomb tho
not used. it's bad.
Rockslide
or if its good enough already.
What did finch say for this to happen?
[2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: @Kevin
[2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: do you actually think
[2:54 AM] Jubilant Josh: you could make an entire video
