Steely Spirit Zacian is Fair and Balanced on Pokemon Showdown
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 เม.ย. 2021
- I decided to throw a team together abusing Zacian with Perrserker's signature steely spirit ability, which some salty player didn't like very much. If you enjoy the showdown content be sure to drop a like on the video as it motivates me to continue making this content, and let me know which steel types you would use alongside Perrserker in the comments!

I thought we weren't gonna get the "No! Charizard!" Thank god it was a false alarm.
As long there is Charizard to be knocked out, it will
Thank God we had our "No! Charizard!"
Never fails to crack me up
Charizard, nooooo!*
It was “charizard no!”
Slowbrokenvgc is the most wholesome showdown player I saw in my whole life
That probably made Weedle's day, heck it made my day happier with a small smile
The gays are nice
@@winterycold we like him not just cuz he his gay. He make really cool content
@@winterycold I knew Verlisify was bi at most.
is it slowbro ken? or slow-broken? or
“No Charizard” is quickly becoming the new weakness policy
And encore 😏
I personally prefer the “SPEED”
B*tch, I can't see!
with your handsssss
one of my personal favorites is
"What?! What, my water!?... BITCH I CAN'T SWIM!"
that intro makes me cry laugh everytime
Excuse me what are these and where do I get them?
@@WeedleTwineedle what the fuck how did you
box looking funky😳
■_■
The "charizard, noooo" never gets old lmao
my favorite is the "intimidate"
@@sneasalmaster I'm partial to the "SPEED!" myself lol
(Even if it didn't show up today)
@@sneasalmaster it gets me so bad when it happens multiple times and they pitch shift it up
"Baby ya pussy dead" is used so infrequently it gets me every time
@@PrismariLaura every time they use the “Beast Boost”, especially when it’s not even beast boost that gets activated, I lose it
That "it's not very effec - oop!" is an s-tier edit
Not as good as 'the type disadvantage had no effect.'
Not as good as "Oh no! Charizard!
Spectrier: **accidentally kills Solgaleo**
Also Spectrier: nOOooo **twerks on Solgaleo's grave**
Lol get fucked bro eggsdeee
I shouldn't be laughing this hard at this XD
Also Spectrier: lol it's time for grim neigh
"OH MY GOD HE'S DEAD!?!? NO!!"

Perrserker steeling Zacian's spirit and stealing our hearts
We love der catzer
Nicely done. You're casting a spell with the way you . . . well, you know.
This is why I love my steel wool kitty
Weedle: "I don't know what Gamefreak was thinking."
You and me buddy, you and me.
It really meses me up how they swapped the pokemon typings.
I wanted to get Pokémon shield because of the shield dog but nooo, they make it a worse-off steel fighting.
Yeah, more Attack then an average legend as well as free plus 1. And more speed then 90% of the pokemon in Galar. And not to mention Zacian is oddly durable.
Yeah, I am unsure what they were thinking with Zacian-crowned as well. But I am glad it is banished to AG (for the most part)
Every generation's legendaries managed to make the previous generation's legendaries seem balanced. GF is doing this on purpose.
@@discountchocolate4577 Still how the heck are they gonna top Zacian next game? As that sh*t was stupidly "braindead" and cheap to use. I mean you just send it out and it kills almost anything.
@@astralguardian5930 I feel like they'll put out a disappointing legendary to lower expectations for the next
Babe, I just killed a charizard. Pull out the audio clip, you know the one.
Everyone saying no charizard never gets old and it’s true but what really always gets me is the “intimiDaTe”
I await the day we see 4 IntimiDaTe Pokémon enter the field at once
Intimidate!
“Zacian is for unskilled players”-Groudon user
"Oh no! Charizard", "Let's destroy them" and "Daddy I'm sorry" on the same video. I feel so blessed
Where does the third sound effect come from? I really cant find It!
@@pabloalvarado1080 i wanna find it too

stays watching after the explanation "BONUS STAGE" 😏 yall who leave stay losing
Why is no one talking about that instruct trick room? THAT WAS FUCKING GENIUS.
Porygon2: Sets up Trick Room.
Oranguru: Instructs Porygon2 to use Trick Room again, thereby returning the battlefield to normal.
God I wish my brain were that big.
Yeah Oranguru MVP of that battle!
Galaxy brain play
Prankster encore does essentially the same thing... but without style points
I don't even play Pokémon anymore, but Weedle has those fun teams I can't get enough of.
The queen hath greeted us with her appearance
Thou must bow before the queen
*their*
Weedle uses they/them pronouns
@@Sniwott yo mama
@@Sniwott weedle does use they/them but it’s common in gay culture to use she/her as a joke no matter who. I would think Weedle is probably fine with it for a little joke like this, but maybe they aren’t.
*their
I replayed 2:07 too many times, and it's funny each time. LOL
Ikr
Ur everywhere

Hi pk!
do you know, there it from?
I’m actually really digging the style of showing a few matches, then explaining the team, then another match or two. Think it’s really solid!
Gosh Weedle’s voice is the best lol
Since you said you read every comment, just wanted to say your videos are awesome. I've been watching for nearly 2 years now and it's always been a highlight of my day to see a new weedle video. You have a truly unmatched balance of quality, comedy, and personality.
It's been a long time since I've heard someone say "key-oh-grey"
Not since the pokerap * shudders *
At least it wasn't "Grewdon"
I don't know how he keeps managing to say it without laughing.
Pokébrap
The Instruct on Porygon2 to make it undo its own Trick Room was just... **chefs kiss**
Weedle is still as amazing as ever.
Agreed 😁👍
Oranguru's Instruct on the opponent to use Trick Room again is the big brain play I come to expect from the WeedleTwineedle channel. Great video once again! :D
I love that "Let's destroy them" clip lmao. Good vid as always Weedle
That and Jasmine Masters get me everytime 🤣
QOTD: Scizor, not because I think itd be the best but just because I want my boy to be good again
Zacian being a fair and balanced Pokémon for 11 minutes
UMMM AKSHUALLY It's only for 4 minutes since the rest is team info. 🤓
The explanation of the team comp is one of my favorite parts of these videos!
Zacian wandering up to AG Tier where it's just Mega Rayquaza with cakes and streamers. "FINALLY! A FELLOW POKEMON!"
U know that mega ray has dropped to uber right?
@@kyouhei7731 ray mega is not even in gen 8
@@DavideKuras check in national dex AG my pal. There are tiers for every single pokemon
@@DavideKuras also it dropped a lot, even below Dragapult and kyurem B
@@kyouhei7731 nah it’s AG still
I love how you take time to explain the thought process being your team, then go with a totally different team in the bonus stage 5 seconds later x)
Nice bonus stage though! Oranguru did the job well!
2:38 Alright Jimmy's mom as a clown was pretty funny.
*scary
The bowling strike with Mario's "Buh-bye!" killed me
Weedle, I want to know that seeing a video of you in my feed gives me a tremendous amount of joy everytime. I know people tend to say shit like "alright, I get to escape depression for 10 min", but as someone going through varying stages of self doubt and procrastination, your videos, and general sense of humor, help me cope. Thank you.
Weedle, we know you work at Game Freak, now. I saw you put shiny Galarian Meowth in the promo raids last night to hype up this video
OMG you went into the strategy so in-depth!! I love these breaks so much, thank you for including them
This, now this is beautiful. You really blessed us again right before the series ends. This is one of my favorite teams you've showed us, the amount of synergy is insane. thanks for sharing!!!
7:23 Your explanation of Duraludon was very helpful to my understanding the overall strategy and composition of this team. Thank you.
"It's not very-OOP" followed by Ash had me in tears.
This is how you start a Friday. Abusing Zacian and making people tilt!
Any given video...
"Lol, what is this mess of a team? Free win"
Weedle: All acorn to plan.
I was enjoying one of the old videos from this Chanel somewhat around 2017. I feel really happy for widdle, well deserved and probably you'll be even more successful.
Love you weedle!!! That instruct/trickroom play was awesome!!!
Weedle saying "Kyogre" is sweet, sweet music
Boi, that instruct porygon to remove trick room was a high iq move XD
I literally don't know anything about competitive pokemon battling, I just like collecting them but your videos are always super fun to watch and it's so cool to see all the different techniques you can use! Thank you for the awesome content!
I just can't with the editing, you snatch me every time. Keep up the marvelous work Weedle
i actually know why regileki has 200 base speed:
most regis have a stat that is 200 by default: E.G: Regirock's 200 def, Regidragos 200 HP, Regiice's 200 SPdef
the only exceptions are regigigas and registeel, registeel is a middle ground between regiice and regirock. and regigigas has enormous stats but a shitty ability
TLDR: its a running regi theme
soon Fighting and Psychic type Regis
with 200 atk and 200 spatk respectively
This is really cool actually,i never noticed this abt the regis
There's another cool trivia about the Regis:
The Japanese name of each of the 6 Regis have exactly 5 syllables *while sharing the same English name;* seems impossible right?
But this is the case due to how Japanese language works.
レジアイス "Re-ji-ah-ee-soo"
レジロック "Re-ji-ruh-oh-ku"
レジスチル "Re-ji-su-tee-roo"
レジギガス "Re-ji-gee-gah-soo"
レジエレキ "Re-ji-eh-le-kee"
レジドラゴ "Re-ji-do-rah-goh"
The Setsuna lines always get me no matter what
Okayyyy
Which ones are those?
@@beechteeth Okaaaaay
@@beechteeth what do you mean?
Glad to see more of your content Weedle!! Have a great rest of your day/night.
Found you the other day in a side video. You have my favorite showdown battles, great work!
"Zacian is lame!" - dude who uses Groudon+Venusaur combo
watching weedle's video made our quarantine better.
nice variety of sound effects weedle!
I love the explanation on your showdown teams. It goes fast enough that I sometimes miss details. It's interesting to see you have a team that goes for the throat rather than messes around a bit more. It reinforces that you are quite talented at playing, and are normally operating with a very large self imposed handicap against the try-hardier players
Love you Weedle, hope to see more people in Showdown showing you appreciation too. Please don't pay much attention to hatefull coments, there is more people who love your content and support you. Stay inspired
ALL ACORN TO PLAN
I love hearing your team making process!
Keep ongoing bud!
I know it takes time to team build, thank you!
Great vid, wtf was with that twerk at 0:34 lmaoooo
Edit: ohhh Spectrier knocks out Solgaleo to get the Grim Neigh. I get the joke now, it’s great
I feel like when Weedle has to kill an Inciniroar, There is like a moment of hesitation, but only a moment.
a while ago I tried making an extremely janky magic guard steel beam lucario team, and perrserker was in that team iirc.
Also zacian is fucking busted. I'm in an in game pokemon rp campaign a streamer made where the players are fighting in the league tournament, and it was recently announced that the next session will use the dragon king ruleset, which allows one restricted per team (+ unrestricted legendaries obviously). The thing is that the campaign was presented as roleplay first and foremost, but basically every character (most of which are like idols, chefs and stoners and shit like that) will use literal gods in the tournament. So me and a bunch of my friends are trying to make a battle spot singles team which doesn't use random legends (my character is a thief who stole a prototype of the devon link cable and wants to make an interdimensional travelling circus, so I have a blacephalon in my team, but i don't use any other legends). Basically the only mons that we use to counter zacian are stuff like sash unburden counter hitmontop and counter wobuffet, or janky shit like power trick eq shuckle. We're probably gonna lose but at least we aren't ruining our characters by saying they just "ran into" the god of time on the way to mcdonald's
sorry for the bad english and sentence structure, i just needed to vent about this to someone
There is nothing that gets me more excited than seeing a new weedle video. Love you, keep up the great work!
ive never played competitive pokemon before but your videos always encourage and inspire me to make weird teams and try them out, i know theyre really different and could have way better pokemon but youve taught me that it doesnt have to be a bad thing, thank you for these videos
Game freak: We made balance changes
Game freak: Regileki, Zacian, -C, Dracovish, and they haven’t balanced our horny for Incineroar
Do not balance the last one
2 Weedle vids in just over a week? Life is good
This video is a pretty good one, I like how you explain the team dynamics, and of course the sound effect memes.
seen so many weedle videos that I can predict the sound effect edits now lmao. Love it
the second battler: OMG ZACIAN OP PLS NERF
the Perrserker that literally swept their whole lineup:
Thank you for choosing music from Breath of Fire 3. That soundtrack is so underrated. 🥰
Seems fun.. love your videos weedle!! Glad to see you still doing content. You and foo are my favorite hands down :)
Thank you for another great video Weedle! The intimidate sound effect gets me every time haha
NGL, did not know what Steely Spirit did before this video
Gigamax Charizard laughing
“What can you do, steel type?”
Zacian: _pulls out a gun_
*POW*
Ash: *NOOOOOO CHARIZARD!!!!*
couldn't believe this thumbnail was actually in my subscriptions and not in my recommended xd finally i can stop rewatching your showdown content hehe love you weedle
Thanks I have been waiting so patiently for an upload 😊💕
Game Freak Logic...
*When creating Zacian:* Lets give it one of the best dual types in game, a 170 base attack with a free attack boost and 148 base speed aswell as solid 115 stats in both of her defenses and let's give it also one of the most broken steel type attacks ans don't forget to give her a BIG variety of moveset. *FAIR AND BALANCED :D*
*When creating Zamazenta:* Body Press on a Fighting type whose main role is defensive? Lol nope that would be too broken. Recovery moves? King's Shield? *NEVERMIND*
this comment aged well

Zacian is truly the most unbalanced pokemon AF , ITS JUST TOOO OP
Your editing always gets me good.
I don't know how often people mention this, but your taste in videogame music is phenomenal. The Setsuna voice clips always get a small chuckle out of me, too!
Before 1:47 this will be easy
After 3:14 this pokemon is not easy and thus you're unskilled
Pick one. Either gloat before you've won and be humbled. Or be humble with a HLHF and bitch after you've lost.
The title is a lie.
Glad to see you making vids again I could binge them all day, I like when you narrate battles too 😊

Weedle thanks for breaking down the team at the end. I had no idea what steely spirit was before this video.
Never played this game, but I've been watching you for like a year. Love the editing it makes me smile
