    A Mon so good, it was responsible for a lot of nerfs.
    XY
    - Electric-types are now immune to paralysis.
    SM
    - Thunder Wave's Accuracy has now been dropped to 90%.
    - Paralysis now only halves Speed instead of quartering it.
    - Swagger's Accuracy has now been dropped to 85%.
    - Confusion's self-hit rate has now decreased to 33%.
    - Confusion's self-hit damage is now unaffected by stat changes.
    - Dark-types are now immune to moves affected by Prankster.
    It was solely responsible for *7* nerfs. For reference, Smeargle contributed to 3 nerfs, Zacian contributed to 2 nerfs, and Kangaskhan, Rotom, Cresselia, Greninja, Talonflame, Incineroar, Mimikyu, the Tapus, Rillaboom, Cinderace, Regieleki, and Calyrex-Shadow-Rider contributed to 1 nerf each, mostly to a move or their abilities.

      Dude, Incineroar is probably the single biggest reason why Clear Amulet and Covert Cloak were introduced. (They directly target 3 of the 4 gimmicks Incineroar almost always has - Fake Out, Parting Shot and Intimidate. Imo you should count these items as 'nerfs' to Incineroar. Heck, I see Clear Amulet on every relevant physical restricted mon nowadays barring the weapon-doges

      @@idkputsomerandomname9657 I don't really see these additions as "nerfs" to a Pokémon and more-so see these additions as "counter-play" to a strategy. Like, the Tapus being responsible for the nerfing of the damage boost by Electric, Psychic, and Grass Terrain is what I consider a nerf, while the addition of Ice Spinner is "counter-play".
      If we're going off your example, technically Incineroar nerfed Intimidate by leading to moves such as Wicked Blow, Surging Strikes, and Ivy Cudgel. Or Pokémon that use Protect a lot nerfed it by the addition of Unseen Fist and Mighty Cleave.

    Seems like the Gen 9 Singles segment was written at the very start of the DLC2 meta. To give a summary of DLC2 for Thundurus:
    Thundurus-I has indeed stayed in NU and has become an important mon in the tier. It is quite appalling to hear Thundurus-I, a mon once Uber in Gen 5, not even being top 5 all the way down in NU, but that's Gen 9 for you. Anyways, it is very good mon. Its surroundings now consists of mons like Mienshao, Krookodile, Flygon, Magnezone, Gallade, Lucario, and more, but it possessing an important offensive and defensive role in the tier and has a large variety of sets it can utilize (albeit with varying levels of consistency).
    Thundurus-T did indeed fall to RU. While there was more broken stuff that fell down there first that needed to be dealt with, it was a fairly controversial Pokemon from the get-go. RU has became, and still is, infamous for its setup sweepers running amok, and Thundurus-T was one of them. This is especially problematic when Barraskewda is in the tier, thus it alongside Politoed has defined Rain structures in the RU tier. It eventually did get banned, and is currently RUBL.
    I will update this comment tomorrow, as July tier shifts are happening tomorrow, and both forms of Thundurus was projected last month to rise to RU and UU, respectively.
    Update: Thundurus-T did not rise to UU proper, but Thundurus-I did rise to RU.

    As much as I think the genies are boring Pokemon, design wise. Thundurus is an amazing example of how versatile and creative some Pokemon can be. Acting as a mix attacker, a sweeper, set up, bulky support, and status spreader.

    Yknow, from what I understand from WolfeyVGC, a support Pokemon gets better the more power there is in the partners it can support. So, as examples, if we look at at what it was able to support, therefore Thundurus was more effective on teams that didn't need the power that Thundurus brought in general. Again, this isn't super in-depth, but it's primarily for doubles that this tends to hold true... more of a normal types, but there are some non-normals that could, and did, replicate similar results by being the support for those heavy hitters.
    Again, this is my overview, but this definitely sounds like one of those Pokemon, again, this is from what I understood, or think I understood. That's all I'm gonna say about Thundurus in doubles, as far as singles, I find myself looking at it less and less because it feels more and more like a showcase for "ooooh, look at the shiny new toy!" at least in terms of the format. Not knocking 1v1s, but it feels more like it was more or less designed with VGC in mind, same as Lando-T and Lando in general. Though the one I feel has more staying power is specifically Tornadus due to that Tailwind utility it can provide and makes it highly profitable when speed control vs teams with lots of Thundurus counters, in terms of controlling the speed... at least that's what I understand... I can't speak from ANY experience.

    Bugger me, how long has it been since Blunder was in one of this channel's videos? I don't think he's been around since the Paradox vidoes. But the time between those and this video pale in comparrison to the time between the Paradox Vidoes and the Ice-Type Video.

    Idk what you did to the fonts, coloring, and alignment of the text, but it looks quite bad. Move font looks cheap, some of the colors like black make some text unreadable, and text aligned left for abilities/items doesn’t look good.
