If you REALLY think about it, all explosion variantes are technically pivoting moves And also steel beam, chloroblast, and mind blown is used under 50% HP And also also all recoil moves if you use it with 1 HP And also also also any stat lowering move while equiped with eject pack
It's kinda funny how even though this list has spots at the bottom of the list, all of these moves are at least like a 9/10 in terms of how good they are. Another upside to Chilly Reception is that it's a great option to reset opposing weather, especially with snow being the most neutral weather in the series

U-turn is great, the problem is that so many mons learn it, it should be more or less a move that bug types learn. Not only to buff the bug types, but also so that all these psychic types don't have to be afraid of their own shadows. Gamefreak has restricted moves before, they can do it again.
Id personally order it like this BP Shed Tail Teleport U-turn Parting shot Flip turn Volt switch Chilly Dry pass Because of how spammable the moves are. Chilly and dry pass are relatively passive in most cases so they are at the bottom, but as immunities become less common the better a move becomes (with the exception of shed tail) since ground is common and there are a few water immune mons like ogerpon wellspring volt and flip turn pop up next. Then parting shot since it has good utility but is still kind of passive, then its uturn which cant be stopped by a type of ability and isnt passive so its above the rest. And lastly theres teleport, shed tail, and BP. -6 priority is really good as it guarantees a safe switch and a good matchup to a specific mon which helps enable a lot. This being guaranteed is enough to put it above all of the damaging ones. Shed tail is like teleport in its use but its effect is much greater with the ownly downside being it cutting half of your hp making it less spammable. But its all you need when you can either guarantee a safe switch by being faster or guarantee an extra turn and a safe switch by being slower. And then theres BP which needs no explanation its been banned in every gen with a few exceptions like Advanced and even then since the playerbase is quite old its generally looked down upon to make full bp teams.
I still don't understand why Chilly Reception is exclusive to Slowking, a non-Ice-type Pokémon. It feels like it was designed for Mr. Rime, who isn't even in Scarlet and Violet.
interesting video, i personally would go, drypass, flip turn, volt switch, chilly reception, parting shot, u-turn, teleport, shed tail, and baton pass. -6 prio is insane, its the reason slowbro fell down to ru this gen when it was ou last gen, volt switch is good because of its high distribution, but is so easily blocked that it doesn't feel fair to put it above moves like teleport. chilly reception is only higher than volt switch, because if slowking also got volt switch, it would still rather use chilly reception, but I wont disagree if you put it higher.
@@icyscream355 good perspective. I agree about the negative priority being massive. I hate the Teleport distribution nerf, hopefully it will be more wide spread next gen
Dry Baton Pass should be higher, it has one thing that other pivot moves don't, *ignoring Pursuit,* yes this pivot move *bypasses Pursuit-Trapping.* This one aspect is why I've never agreed with the full Baton Pass ban, *it removes some counter-play to Pursuit.* Yes after GameFreak decided to remove Pursuit for some *(stupid)* reason I can see it, but in generations or metagames (NatDex) where Pursuit is a thing Baton Pass is arguably the best pivoting moves for things weak to Pursuit (Celebi, Espeon, Driflim, etc.). Don't get me wrong as Baton Pass can be extremely broken, but this one trait, on top of it being the only pivot move that a good number of mons get makes the complete ban of the move excessive. Yes you could get swept by something if you Swagger the Baton Passer and pass the boosts to a Lum Berry physical setup sweeper, but that has the same energy as giving your opponents Serperior an Evasion boost with Defog, something outside of the Baton Pass user's control. Instead I'd ban Baton Pass+any moves/items/abilities that get a positive effect which Baton Pass can pass (not counting Perish Song), for Gen7 and NatDex formats I'd add Normalium Z and Eeveeium Z to the list. The later for obvious reasons and the former because of how many Normal type status moves have good effects when Z-powered (Z-Conversion or Z-Splash's +3 Attack boost for example). The only for sure exceptions would be moves like Meteor Mash or Ancient Power and it's variants, because you just can't bank on Baton Passing an at-best 20% chance omni-boost (Serene Grace), plus your using a terrible move as well.
i feel like volt switch is worse than flip turn cuz like. yea higher base power and all that but grounds are significantly more common than storm drain
Memento is a pivot move if you think about it
Explosion is a way better pivoting move
I hate to say it but you’re right.
i like using healing wish as a pivot on indeedee on trick room teams
If you REALLY think about it, all explosion variantes are technically pivoting moves
And also steel beam, chloroblast, and mind blown is used under 50% HP
And also also all recoil moves if you use it with 1 HP
And also also also any stat lowering move while equiped with eject pack
So is any self-KO move

*[Angry Scald noises]*
chilly reception can be used in natdex monotype to pivot into slush rush arctovish for free high-speed fishious rend, my favorite use of pivoting
I gotta try this
Id personally order it like this
BP
Shed Tail
Teleport
U-turn
Parting shot
Flip turn
Volt switch
Chilly
Dry pass
Because of how spammable the moves are. Chilly and dry pass are relatively passive in most cases so they are at the bottom, but as immunities become less common the better a move becomes (with the exception of shed tail) since ground is common and there are a few water immune mons like ogerpon wellspring volt and flip turn pop up next.

I was at #2 thinking what other pivot move is there that's better than u-turn? 🤔 lol u got me
The thumbnail is perfect 😂😂

U-turn so high up is surprising when you said that distribution is not going to be considered that much
@@ritwique no immunities, tied for best BP, and most reliable pivot move, felt like I had to put it that high
interesting video, i personally would go, drypass, flip turn, volt switch, chilly reception, parting shot, u-turn, teleport, shed tail, and baton pass.
-6 prio is insane, its the reason slowbro fell down to ru this gen when it was ou last gen, volt switch is good because of its high distribution, but is so easily blocked that it doesn't feel fair to put it above moves like teleport. chilly reception is only higher than volt switch, because if slowking also got volt switch, it would still rather use chilly reception, but I wont disagree if you put it higher.
@@icyscream355 good perspective. I agree about the negative priority being massive. I hate the Teleport distribution nerf, hopefully it will be more wide spread next gen
Imo volt switch should be lower discretion or not I can be blocked and teleport/fliptrun are on alot of pokemon with Regenerator

U-turn in my favorite u-turn type.

I like baton pass 😈
I'm going to guess that U-turn is the best
