Have heard a TH-camr use physical Alakazam on Sword and Shield, I forgot the name of the move atm, but it's the one that swaps your attack and special attack. Though physical Alakazam only works in doubles. I believe it was Pimpnite who said it, I haven't found the video yet cause there are a lot of videos lol. It sounds like a viable strategy if you can pull it off, doesn't seem to work as well in singles unless you know your opponent has that move and are lucky enough to switch into it
They think they're good because they don't know where they went wrong yet. As they get better they will realise that, then think they're bad until they begin to learn where they are going wrong
@@hiroyuki9182 he probably mean a special attacker. As for me, i won a match because a Zacian randomly died on my mon while i used Protect because he used Steel Beam
Ive seen a strat where you use a baton passer with boosted attack and switch into a Alakazam with the elemental punches and psychic. It's crazy strong.
I LOVE this Kommo-o set I get soooo many forfeits once I set up belly drum. I often carry him on a seemingly defensive team, then I catch the opponent off guard, set up, and it's already gg BUT I carry Close Combat instead of drain punch for extra power.
@@bakaraymoo7389 ???? I think the other person doesnt understand the purpose of drain punch is to get your health back on every hit so you dont die to priority, the extra power from cc is unnecessary as you're already at +6 and you just die to prio moves
@@gregoryford2532 no he's saying he wished there was never a split between special and physical attacks. Because back then Alakazam could utilize physical moves and they would work good cuz there was no special split yet
A tactic that can be brutally destroyed by a single taunt. Why is it not common to have that on your lead pokemon? It's like the main defence against teams like this.
ikr? I put taunt on a max speed, speed deoxys 😏 next to reflect, roleplay, and night shade, for that lack of damage output or destroying defensive mons like shuckle. My boi is a stall murderer.
TBH watching this back, I could kind of understand an Alakazam using Focus Punch in the anime. Psychic types, especially single-types like Alakazam, are all about focus and strength of mind. Focus Punch requires the user to centre their mind in a way that makes sense of Psychic types to use, so thematically it fits with Alakazam pretty well. Just a shame the stats really don't allow for it.
One of my worries of this channel is that tempt is secretly egging on the angry responses from the opponents and just not showing it. It seems unlikely but the idea is still there. These videos are great, I just hope it's not being manipulated.
Hey, this is Sword Dancer 03 here, and I don't remember him egging on any of my responses, even if I don't really come across as salty? He was actually pretty cool, he let me know that substitute blocked Transform and whatnot.
Not only do I just love watching the sweeps and anger, but I get surprised by the use of some of my favorite sonic tracks that I feel like everyone else forgets about. Keep it up!
If that one kid who Evoboosted had a Ghost type, like a Gengar or something, he could've avoided the huge stat baton pass getting wasted because of Yawn. But hey, sometimes you're just not prepared.
Easy way to counter Pokemon immune to Thunder Punch. Just swap Thunder Punch for one of the other elemental punches; Kommo-o can learn all three. Ice Punch, in particular, would hard-counter Dragon, Flying, and Ground Types.
I kinda feel bad for the first guy, he wasn't toxic or anything and it was probably one of his first times playing Pokemon Showdown, he just saw whatever moves had a higher base power and chose them
@@carnibug In this case with the Kommo-o, after the substitute and belly drum setup, his attacking moves are Drain Punch and Thunder Punch. The first being fighting type, and the latter being electric. Golurk is a Ghost/Ground Pokemon, meaning that a Golurk would have immunity to both of his attacking moves essentially shutting down the team. To give just a slight bit more explanation, I’m sure everybody knows that Ghost is immune to Fighting, and Ground is immune to Electric, so the Golurk wouldn’t be able to be hit by the high powered moves.
I was cringing so much when the first guy didn’t even bother using a Sp. Atk Alakazam or even trying to fuse Solgaleo or Lunala with Necrozma. Like WTF????
Great video! At 5:41 had me on the floor when he started cussing you out in russian for some reason 😂. He pretty much says what he already said but with some dirty words 🤔
I sat here trying to figure out for the longest time what the third attacking move was. Only when the video was nearly over did I remember the substitute.
I won't lie. You are the reason I got back into showdown and decided to really try doing well, and hell, I hope that I get lucky enough to be salty nuff to lose to you as I am in fact, a noob
Not even kidding, this is the exact kommo-o set. But i use dragon claw in place of thunder punch and also i use shuckle to slow down potentially faster pokemon
Damn I know you use a bunch of good sonic music but somehow I was somehow still not expecting Deep Woods from Sonic and the Black Knight to show up in a video
