Lucario: "Let me guess. You're gonna say, 'did you plan this all along Lucario?" Tell me!'"
Mewtwo, with Lucario's hand on its throat: "How do you always know!?"

*For a moment, Mewtwo was distracted by Lucario's hand and his cocky attitude. That moment was all it took. Scalding rocks he didn't see coming launched him even higher into the stratosphere!*

[@shawnli4746]

Mewtwo only has quotes like:
"You are as pathetic as the rest!"
"Do not attempt to defy me!"
"As the victor, I now claim my prize..."

[@Junyi03572]

Mewtwo was rejected by earth. It had since been floating aimlessly in the vast empty space. It had become half living-being half mineral. Mewtwo wished for death, but death would not respond. To cope with the fact that it can not die, Mewtwo eventually stopped thinking.

Final gambit is a super flex move ngl. Like yeah there are plenty of occasions where its useful, but having such a high hp stat and a good enough speed stat to say "Nah bro, I don't feel like fighting you" and become a turn 1 destiny bonf

Best pokemon to do that are probably gonna be Staraptor (85HP, 100 Speed) or Annihilape (110 HP, 90 Speed)

[@blueyandicy]

​@@benross9174Shedninja doesn't get it though? Only Nincada does, and it's through breeding. Shedninja itself can't learn it if it's already evolved.

[@myriad3569]

​@@blueyandicynincada gets it, which means shedinja gets it by evolving from a nincada with the move

[@DaikoruArtwin]

Something that isn't too well known: In generation 7, when using Z-Memento, it would not only lower the opponent's offensive stats, it would also heal the next Pokemon in the same way as Healing Wish, but without the status condition cure. That could put the opponent in a really tough spot, without the firepower to stop a second sweep attempt from happening.

[@sleepy5430]

Wow that's interesting and broken😨 but also so niche. Most players would just use their Z crystals to gain advantage by dealing with a dangerous mon, no wonder this is not well known

[@levievil9220]

I mean if the mon you were sending out was a guts mon with a burn then you can probably reverse sweep it it probably has facade and is normal type

[@SharKing319]

Here's a little something I'd like to see a video on (and I'd love to see what kind of cursed thumbnail would come from it too, XD).
*Ambipom Syndrome* - The phenomenon of a Pokémon being used in a tier for which it clearly isn't viable, keeping it stuck there until the end-of-generation tier freeze, thus preventing it from falling to a lower tier where it might actually be useful. Most commonly happens due to a Pokémon's "noob trap" qualities.
Not to be confused with Pokémon that lost their niches in past-gen tiers due to rule changes that happened after the tier freeze, such as Venusaur being unviable in Gen 5 OU after the complex ban on Drought + Chlorophyll happened.
Notable examples (you might be able to find more):
Mesprit (Gen 7 NU)
Dusclops (Gen 5 UU)
Vaporeon (Gen 6 UU)
Electivire and Dusknoir (Gen 4 OU)
*_AMBIPOM_* (Gen 5 UU, Gen 6 RU, Gen 7 NU)
