Main event is now underway folks. This is cool
Competitive Pokemon Singles has now peaked with the beginning of Jimvitational. An incredible invite-only Gen 3 OU tournament featuring the best of the best.
Who is the best in ADV OU? Who will utilize Skarmory, Tyranitar or even Camerupt? Some will never figure all that out. - เกม
Manaphy has dominated the ADV OU metagame for far too long
Unbelievable they haven't banned it yet to be honest
I play a gen before Manaphy was released and Manaphy is still dominant
This game made me a fan of ban manaphy teams , that mimic meta was so hilarious
42 minute video and hyper beam snorlax in the thumbnail. This is going to be a ride
Thanks to soul wind not playing anything offense at all, we got the 42 minute video
Okay that was the coolest Snorlax lead I have ever seen.
Jim's stutter on "Hyper... BEAM?!" is top-tier content.
Snorlax: “Did I stutter”
ban manaphy absolutely crushing it. that game 2 was incredible, excellent playing. the earthquake mispredict in game 3 looked tragic but manaphy took it in stride and ended up maneuvering swampert into the win. absolutely incredible, this was a joy to watch. this tournament is incredible i eagerly await each new match.
Zapdos did all the work in game 3, it was pretty much done at that point imo
The Hyper Beam Huddle is quite happy with this.
Hyper Beam Snorlax is all you need to guarantee a watch.
Jim low-key spitting bars at 4:00
Rock slide going for the skarm beat down maybe get a few flinches in the mix
This is peak Pokemon PVP
Best set of the tournament by far. Ban Manaphys creative teambuilding vs Soulwinds solid defensive play was such a blast to see. Nobody rushing for a win, looking to find the best plays and pushing each other to a high strategic field
i thought drum beam was insane enough then mimic metagross starts spiking up
what the hell
13:00 "The DD Tar is a fantastic tool to have in this endgame here" Jimothy says, as both players still have 5 mons. This is normal.
amazing set! I CANNOT believe how many times Mana refused to ice beam the incoming Zapdos...they must have convinced themselves that surely Soulwind wouldn't immediately go Zap again...but she brought just enough brilliant and creative offensive tools to overcome Soulwind a 2nd time. I need to see then play again
Mana is a guy... So is soulwind.
@@SpinelessVermin my bad, I thought I recalled hearing Jim refer to Mana with the she pronoun towards the end of the vid
@@Zetts no problem, I know soulwind's pronouns are he/him for sure... But mana I've never seen anyone correct he/him pronouns when he's been called that. I think mana was called "she" simply for the fact that manaphy is more of a girly pokemon and the woman avatar as well. Probably just best to use they/them if you want to be extra careful, but afaik it's he/him for mana too.
that was such a good set, this is insane
Mana has gained a new fan cause my gosh I loved the play style and call-out attempts at times. What a set this was folks. Two of the GOATs going at it will always be entertaining
Really loved this one, Mana bringing some spice to the tournament and winning with it, against Soulwind no less
I'll bet Soulwind had a thousand-yard stare as that Light Screen Starmie went onto the field.
I think this is my favorite match ever, Mana's play style is so cool to watch
27:55 I was just relaxing in the comfort of my own home, and then I saw him. With joy in my heart, I said his name, "Ronflex", at the exact same time Jim did.
Mimic metagross is the tech we came for. Truely insane. Coolest set so far.
This was some insane gaming from both players. Awesome set to see
What a set! Some very fun & interesting team choices here.
This is gonna be a great one folks.
Finally a set that is truly insane, folks
I'm sure we've all thought about using Mimic to steal Spikes, but there's the problem of Protect, and also I'm not sure anyone ever thought,
"Yeah, you know what, Metagross is the best mon for Mimic."
Another inspirational choice.
These were honestly super entertaining games. So many long, difficult lines both sides had to play out.
18:30 insanely hype
Incredible set, all 3 games were amazing, as were the teams
My favorite set of the tourney so far!
incredible set wow
Amazing set
insane set, holy
Holy awesome set
very cool set my fav yet
I wish I had the kind of freeze luck seen in that first game. I freeze the opponent into instant thaw every single time.
rooted so hard for ban manaphy here, glad she was able to pull through
love to see the interesting and less defensive teams win
This game had me smiling and laughing while my girlfriend looked at me like I was insane. I simply look back at her and calmly say, "This is insane."
i havent even finished game 3 yet but this manaphy cat is ballsy i like it
I’m officially a Ban Manaphy stan. Watched the Callous Invitational round 6 set between these two and it was equally as insane. Mana is a goat
Ban Manaphy is my new favorite player after watching this set. Leading Belly Drum Hyper Beam Snorlax and putting Mimic on Metagross is insane and worked surprisingly well. I also love to see Joleen representation because it’s one of my favorite mons. I think if they played a little more carefully in either game 2, they could have won.
For melee players: this match felt like some hbox vs llod stuff. Slow, methodical, but intense stuff.
holy cow what a set
100 turns of Gaming
That physical Zapdos was insane, folks.
Normally they are choice banded to ohko tar with hp fighting, such a good mind game being able to swap moves. Insane
Band is cool but it still only has a chance to OHKO bulky TTar sets. I love banded Zap on the ladder but in a tournament like this, you're better off avoiding the exploitable band.
Love the balatro bgm
cblax was experimented with as a lead for a brief moment but was realized to be no good as gengar is a viable turn 1 lax answer, this was a treat tho
mana has brought light screen starmie before, they're a fan of that set, it's a more grounded in reality version of SEA's electrode
the medi forre lead mu reminds me of one other tour set where the medi crit cb brick break'd the forre to next week, think it was a linear game
forre baits mag-> dug trap -> still have a skarm is some mdragon stuff, very cool to see it again, that sequence often plays out exactly, though i'm sure mana has seen it before, even thought of using it even
loving the curseperts in this tour so far, such a good adaptation to the standard defpert to apply some pressure (esp against cune lax and other such things like that)
But what was in the last ball?? We need answers.
🔥🔥🔥
g2 was so nicely played
epic match
insane warning
The fans love a game three!
hyper beam lax dipped in mana liz's chili oil
I once used dd hyper beam zard in ou when I was around 1500 elo in ou and won so many games because of its disrupting value.
Mimic metagross is truly gaming
This set deserved a thumbnail too, it was glorious
This is why ADV is goated
mimmic metagross is insane
i think after watching this we can all agree that the best bulky steel spiker in adv is without a doubt... metagross?
I am stealing that mimic metagross set
Manaphy has been succesfully banned. Congrats, Ban Manaphy!
Ban Manaphy is my goat
For the algorithm
ALMAVIENTO.
Ban Manaphy is the Heat to the Celtics.
You mistake getting the plays wrong with throwing. At no point did Manaphy throw, hence them winning the game and set. Made some bad calls sure but that's gonna happen in a 100 turn game.
i didn't recall jim ever saying such a thing
i feel like soulwinds biggest issue is he is extremely predictable and the top players are going to feed off that. He is great at mons but everyone knows no matter the gen man is bringing a defensively leaning balance team
Folks.
Manaphy should be banned i think
Gaming?
it is indeed gaming.
@@appointmenteer that's so based
Ban Manaphy's first team and play was inspirational, but then threw the match by keeping Jolteon in. What a shame.
She threw so that we could have 3 games, Mana is the people's champ
To be fair, that was an insane amount of turns to stay frozen.
3rd game:
feel like snorlax in on blissey to let Tyranitar get wished up was a throw from ban manaphy
not hydro pumping whilst getting hp grass'd was also a throw
but soul wind ended up being unable to press the advantage, probably particularly after tyranitar got paralyzed, but maybe trying to wish up tyranitar around that time was the game-ending error
anyway, Curse Swampert is something of an underrated threat
