The below text is very relevant to many people.
Game Freak just blew all other online game development schools out of the water with this incredible new 2022 release. You're gonna need to get a game design degree online, and FAST, if you want to make a better game than this. Not even the best strategy games android reddit could hold a candle to this breathtaking Next generation competitive Pokemon experience.
Scream Tail is the Jigglypuff of our wildest dreams. It has been buffed with some higher statistics and the incredible ability, Protosynthesis. Gen 9 Competitive Pokemon wouldn't be the same without this powerful pink blob. He kinda looks like someone I met in one of my game design and development courses.
Gen 9 Pokemon Showdown is one of the greatest online gaming sites in history. From Pikachu and Charizard, to Palafin and Roaring Moon, The new Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, have introduced a lot of new faces. Can I succeed in one of the best android games of all time? If so, I'm gonna get myself a Walmart bakery Pokemon cake to celebrate.
Gholdengo is a Pokemon made of pure gold. He must have done some online business management courses to accumulate all that wealth. Or perhaps he might want to learn how to make money playing video games on TH-cam. In any case, he's a powerful metagame force, with absolutely no interest in online game development schools.

Always
Bring
Regirock
Can’t outrock the rock 🗿
If Blaziken does something in this match I will eat my comically large hat
Comically large hats in your local area seem to be safe thankfully
@@itsyaboi1245 He never said he wouldn't eat a comically large hat if Blaziken does nothing.
@@artandem9637 maybe he's a serial comically large hat eater 🤔
@@itsyaboi1245 But not a tragically large hat ofc
"Pretty good chip on Salamence"
i went from being convinced that ABR had lost on turn ~30, to watching him claw his way back to a winning position, to losing in a single moment to that final crit surf. what a rollercoaster. truly this is insane.
tbf subseed fpunch is bullshit so that's deserved
Ninjask has invaded my home.
We can’t catch him. Godspeed 🫡
That Jirachi was absolutely insane. Paralyzed on Turn 5 into 11 straight turns of avoiding para.
Comes back on Turn 31 to be paraed into immediate crit fire punch thru the rain.
Mentioning the turns is such a lame spoiler that adds nothing else to your comment
how about you watch the full video before going to the comments instead. turns out people talk about what happens in the vid down here
@@petertitan99999💯
Most well trained Jirachi of all time.
Blaziken tumbling down the viability rankings after this tourney
This set was the cherry on top of a marvelous tournament.
We've seen not so common mons, game 1&3 were thrilling and the quality of play was stellar.
I was surprised last night to hear the brick walls start to shift and rumble. Little did I know Regirock was actually a part of my house. Regirock has returned home to his cave. Not only is there a terrible draft now, but I am self conscious at the number of times Regirock must have seen me touch myself.
The real Stealth Rock.
We're gaming to the highest level. Finals will be nuts!
One of the most intense sets ever
32:06 insane read there. Congrats Sapientia!!
I am going to miss this so much
That breloom was almost cooking ..
I can't overstate how entertaining this match was, props to you, Sapientia. I especially loved all of the off-meta picks--Ninjask w/ Breloom was incredibly hype, even though it didn't win the game (love you ABR). On another note, Jim and Tina are great commentators. I hope to see you both again, narrating the grand finals together; you guys really know the game!
let me get this straight: sapients is an old dude who played some third gen tournaments when the game released and now, years later, he destroys the whole community? insane.
If these semi-finals have taught me anything, it's that my love of Zapdos back in the day was fully justified. He's a king.
These games were insane. Great play from both players, showing they were justified in being in the semi-finals.
Zapdos is still a king in gen 9 OU
Yeah I loved using this Pokemon since Pokemon Stadium 2 rentals (even with the huge nerf to legendaries). It's just so powerful and flexible
Suicune is my hero. Get your zap in after Suicune calm minded twice
Game 1 was insane folks. ABR is a legend for that endgame.
excellent commentary duo. thank you xtina. thank you jimothy. excellent attention to detail with the music, guile theme. and the victory music at the end. incredible.
Why is anyone surprised at the Bruno avatar bringing four fighting types
"my favourite archetype reversal spam"
*cries in fighting games*
32:05 is the definition of "this is insane folks" and "gaming at the highest level"
Blaziken continues to be cursed as Hell this tourny
This set was actually insane. So tense, so close, so fun! Good games fellas.
can we please have the winner of the tourney have an exhibition match against legendary gamer jimothy
If Goldmason isn't commentating Grands I'm gonna go insane
😄😉😊
These semi finals were crazy. Definitely the top of the chain, can’t wait for the last games!!
This was the most exciting set ive watched of this whole tournament and any competitive singles set, that was awesome
We are gaming in the second semi finals with another amazing thumbnail.
Sapienta with his crit luck always wins
Says this when abr got like 20 crits himself
i mean, if you are the one attacking most of the time, it is more likely that you are the one that gets crits
thats the benefit from a more proactive gameplay
Attacking moves, OP, add status crits like 75% healing from Softboiled.
stall players when they prolong the game for 100 turns and act surprised when they finally get critted:
@@mistergrool3941 offense players running shit teams and thinking its skill when luck bails them out.
SPOILER:
For me, Sapentia is coming in as a little bit of a heel to this finals. They've just gotten a LOT of hax going their way these last games, although they're obviously a good player. But I'm definitely rooting for McMeghan going into the finals. But most of all, I hope for a good fight
I was rooting for Sap in game 1 after the turn 1 crit para, at least
@@_Crowuh After that turn, Jirachi just ate paras for days, even hitting a crit Fire Punch on Magneton IN THE RAIN. That was insane luck imo. Jirachi won game 1 for Sapientia. He was definitely cooking in game 3 though I must admit
@@melikmourali2072 Indeed, the bad start was more than made up for by the end of game 1
Sapientia bailed out by RNG yet again....
First game Sapienta won despite RNG being against him
@@tannerhagen3881 Turn 1 forced Sapientia to rely on Jirachi, but ABR using T-wave made it so it was VERY unlikely that Jirachi would pull through. I would say Sapientia was luckier in game one
cry about it, stop playing slow teams if you dont want to deal with RNG
adv revival, jimothy, xtina, this is insane =)
Damn, the Breloom setup was almost so perfect! That was insane plays by ABR but Sapienta just knew the matchup.
Absolutely jaw-dropping
Game 2 was a classic 4 Fighting type Bell Curve moment
ggs and nice commentary!
that was such an amazing set had me on the edge of my seat for that game 3 end game wow
that was the most insane set I've ever watched
Amazing stuff. This is insane.
This was absolutely insane!
Wow great set between these two! Looking forward to finals
Holy shit game 1 and 3 were jaw dropping
Insane 🔥 good luck Sapientia!
Absolutely insane set. Rooting for the absolute madman Sapienta for the finals.
Okay.
LETS GOOO SAPIENTIA Seeing you take out the favorite to win was phenomenal, let's bring it home!
holy shit that ending
THE MOST INSANE YET
are the songs put in after the video is recorded? guile theme with the subseed breloom and victory fanfare after game 3 were so good
Insane moves from both players.
We're back with another set of semifinals, folks
THIS was an insane set
Awesome contenders
33:28 I'm at the age now where I ask myself if this game is worth playing anymore, after such things occur.
This fight was insane
This was insane
Sapientia didn't get unlucky the first game, dude dodged like 15 consecutive para turns on Rachi. He also couldn't have subbed to berry game 2 on Hera. Regi was gonna boom and break the sub while Hera had 50% health, then either Celebi or Zap could have come in and killed it.
SapienGOD LETS GOOO
Ggs ABR holy shit that set was insane
Excellent set. Truly the highest level of Gen 3 play.
best man 4-ever sapientia ❤
When is the final?
Jim, please make sure you play pokemon champion themes in the background of the finals!
Insane set
Will the finals be live-streamed and commentated on?
I will now go and ladder sand attack ninjask while I still can and reach 1500 because of roar misses. This is…incredible.
That was insane holy shit
honestly i dont want to know if the last crit mattered
great plays from both and gl to sapientia in the finals
What's the song around 27:25
Whats the song at 28:00?
Serious gaming. Well met.
THIS GAME WAS ACTUALLY INSANE.
Holy SHIT what a set. Wow.
Final game was immaculate
amazing games
Damn came down to the very end.
great games what a final endgame though wow
This is insane.
Cannot believe game 1 was as close as it was
Insane.
Is protect too many syllables?
Why didn't hera use sub????? On boom turn
Isn’t having lower hp IVs strictly worse? Like the number you get back will look bigger but you have less hit points so you’re actually less bulky?
bulk doesn't matter since you're focusing on maximising your sub potential
Think about it like foul play damage, you want a - nature and min stats so you take less damage
Yeah, like the guy above said, it's to get more substitute opportunities from leech seed healing. Not to get more healing per se, but so leech heals a greater % of your max hp, giving you presumably more chances to put up a 25% hp sub
Woow that last game was intense lol
Oooooooh I want to discuss both semis spoilers
Insane use of Substitute from Blaziken.
my goats
ABR bring such cool sets
ABR choke with Breloom. He should have continued spamming Focus Punch and not put Milotic to sleep. He won that fight.
"stochastic ladder terrorism" lmao
Please, for finals, when you say something like "surf earthquake makes refresh unlikely" can you please say why?
They literally did, they said refresh most often is on monopert, which has one attaching move (surf), if you payed attention in school, you'd know 2 does not equal 1
@@tomgorey9294 did you really just try to shit on me about *school* and not know which version of paid to use? Womp womp
@@tomgorey9294 and they don't do it for other instances, like "weather clear makes sense on a team with..." at 3:40 or "there could be a marowak in the back" when ninjask comes in.
@@freddiesimmons1394i guess you just have to believe them lol
These commentaries are not meant to teach you every single aspect of the meta. Get your resources, build a team and you will learn urself while playing. ADV is fun!
The ending wooooow
I feel my sanity dissapearing as the gaming begins
kA...Pils???
I think that the Gengar was physically invested (had no especial attacks) to kill Blissey with explosion and enable the Raikou but ABR adapted his game plan after Raikou got toxic.
ABR makes me appreciate pokemon more such cool chess like maneuvers l!!
Also good job to Sapientia for figuring it out!
Definitive proof that Sapientia is running Gameshark
epic
My ninjask breloom techbin semis? Yoooooo
nah sorry sapi but the rng this game was insane
Just from watching how these go down it's very evident ABR is the better player. BAd luck but that's how pokemon goes. Unfortunate doesn't even begin to describe and all that
