My final battle with this guy was my Steelix vs his Steelix. It was the most intense stalemate of my video gaming life. He hit my Steelix with Earthquake, and survived a critical hit with 2 HP, so I spammed Mud-Slap until I ran out. He kept using Harden, and then I kept using Dig, he kept using Earthquake and Magnitude and kept missing, then kept using Iron Tail. And after 30 minutes, he was beaten.
This is an absolutely hellish team for Travis to have, Snorlax, Steelix, Tentacruel, Jolteon, Jynx? His Scyther is also relevant because the AI really doesn't like to use it due it its million weaknesses and low base power moves, so it makes those 5 even more relevant lol.
Hmm... you have slain my dog got smug in false victory Tell me chap... Do you want to be history? My Snorlax mans, quick clawing forth You fail to understand, your bug now short You attempt a burn, and manage so But a kill my monster yearns, and slays thy foe You send your Eeveelution, and manage to end Lax But that'll be your ruination, I'm spitting facts Jynx tanks your flinch, Healing with juice Your mon loses the inch, it lost its use You fail to realize that YOU relied on RNG hax As I just plowed by, with my crumpets and snacks
Yup but it also showed how dependant on RNG you have to be in this Challenge Cup. Reason why I hated this mode: shitty ass movesets (Harden on Heracross, come on), can't freely choose your team and the AI tricks you to oblivion.
Quick Claw and Focus Band are annoying as hell because the odds are so low of it actually doing anything you'd be crazy to use them but they can absolutely win games with luck
hard to assess, actually. Execution-wise, it is absolutely not difficult as all you have to do is select moves (and you have a lot of time for that actually as you have to wait for the AI to select their move anyways). But when it comes to decision-making, there is a LOT of things you need to account for. Stats, damage ranges, assuming movesets and enemy-stats based on the limited information you get. And I'd say, all those things make this actually a surprisingly challenging speedrun-category.
Also, most categories are really damn long, and lots of luck is involved, so it requires a ton of free time, stamina and patience to get good runs. Werster is the only runner I know of who runs the Stadium games regularly.
@@abadstoryends no, that's extreme speed. Quick claw indeed make you faster but can't still outspeed higher priority moves and higher pokemon speed using priority moves. So, it's not outspeeding pokemon no matter what.
Snorlax is a beast but Lugia has titanic defenses, mew and mewtwo have submission which destroys snorlax. Mew's sword dance set is the best in generation 2. Snorlax is the best pokemon by far in OU.
@@robertolozano2502 1°: Submission is an AWFUL move most Mew don't bother with, specially with so many psychics and fliers, so it's better to just stick with quakeslide most of the time. 2°: Stall is not very good in ubers due to the max EVs system enabling a lot of setup and explosion being at full power. Zapdos is normally considered better than Lugia due to that reason despite the lower stats. 3°: Gen 2 sleep is stupidly good and Snorlax, unlike the legendaries, had access to it via lovely kiss. His immediate damage output is also way higher than Mew and have roughly the same coverage, although that low speed hurts it at times.
@@kemosonicfan123lbp but if he Disabled after the burn it would cause chip damage on the Snorlax and then the next turn it would have to pick a weaker move.
@@idr121 it's all about shaving as much time from the speedrun as possible, so gambles are usually done more often than more competitive strategies like this if those strategies can end the battle quicker I don't agree with it if you don't have continues, but that's the reason why

There is no chances that Snorlax should have outspeed! On top of the burn. The more I watch this. The more I'm like what in the actual fuk is going on
Snorlax had the item quick claw, lets you attack first 10% of the time, when the pokemon is slower.

Hey I found you on twitch. You’re awesome. I love this game so seeing someone out here doing stuff right now is so hype. I look forward to seeing you
That snorlax was fat.

3:05 would disable not be a good play here? Get one more turn of burn damage and force him off of mega punch?
Or is the miss odds too much?
It’s accuracy is only 55% in gen 2
Damn berry juice…
that's rough

Funny date: Snorlax is considered the best pokemon in gen 2 period. Yes, even better than Mewtwo, Mew and Lugia.
Wish there were a Ubers gen 2 category on showdown to verify that. It's the best Mon in OU for sure. On virtually every team in the highest ELO.

I don't remember Ninetales looking that green in color in Stadium.
That's because of the nickname Ninetales has.
@@ShadowGeo117 But how does that explain why it's greener than usual? That's all I want to know. Lol
It's a weird Stadium thing where different nicknames change the Pokemon's colour based on the character and capitalization.
@@CyanEyed07 Oh, because how half of it's name is capitalized makes it that way? Never knew and now I see why. Thank you to both you and Shadow.
So a regular Mega Punch does 51 damage... and on the crit it does 188+ damage... what am I missing here?
crit ignores the burn
crit also ignores burn
Burn halves attack and a crit ignores status changes
