I actually love Bruxish. It's based on the state fish of Hawaii, with the incredible Hawaiian name of "humuhumunukunukuāpua'a," which is really fun to say
It's a good example of stuff that happened during the draft league. Haydunn is a great player and i love him to death. He makes teams and plays most others wouldn't but when it comes down to actual players playing Pokemon competitively, Haydunn does fall to the wayside a bit. He's very reliant on setup, and although lately I think it's been cool seeing him be more bold with the switch predictions, I think he definitely still struggles against players who are playing to win, and at least know a little bit of what they're doing in the competitive aspect. I'd love to see a series where he gets a serious team together and actually sets off on the ladder. But until then i'll continue enjoying his unique content of underappreciated mons. Like Starf Berry Tropius.
I knew I battled you!!! I’m the second guy, Mikey, I put a new team together and it wasn’t all ironed out unfortunately and you kicked my butt lol GG I can’t believe I’ve watched you for years and then we randomly battle! My dragonite is a special attacker with choice specs! I take a lot of my move sets from you to throw people off
I feel like I'm the only person in existence who actually likes Bruxish. It's garish and ugly, but that's the point of it. To be jarring and kitsch in a campy, over-the-top way. It's really unique and personally, I find it fun
My favorite part of this video is seeing all of my fellow bruxbros in the comments. Used it in my playthrough of scarlet and it was one of my favorites. It’s really strong
Bruxish was on my team during my sun playthrough. Love that fish and I don't really consider it ugly. I thought it was cool that it looks like a real fish from the region. Ok stats aside never understood why people didn't like using it. It worked wonders for me
I use Bruxish in raids and I know it always shakes people to their core when they see how useful it can be. I know a lot of people hate Bruxish but I love it!
I actually was surprised when I got a Bruxish team in a random (where your team is randomized) Showdown match, and learned how amazing it can be. Wave Crash and Psychic Fangs can rip through some teams. Also I usually don’t see TH-camrs that show their losses, so that’s really cool!
I love this fish, it looks rly cool imo. Like Jynx i have this weird fascination with odd looking mons with fun typings/stats. It kinda reminds me of the pld Klasky Csupo logo from years back, aka the makers of Rugrats. Its bizarre looks wrap around and make it awesome!
Wave Crash coming from Bruxish is actually as strong as the ones from Floatzel but the fish is slower and without Swift Swim. However i think what would make it more viable in VGC format is the increased bulk. This thing has access to Trick Room but lacks Imprison so it might reverse trick rooms but it lacks the bulk to do it. It could also set the trick room but again it lacks the bulk for it. And while Dazzling stop fake out, nobody's gonna click it just like nobody click Fake Out against Farigiraf. People would simply KO Bruxish or double into it if they expect a sash. And sash kinda doesn't work well if your moves have recoil (Wave Crash). This is why if anything you may see it Scarfed. This however very limit its potential (with said trick room) and there are better water pokemon to put a scarf on. Hence in conclusion the reason why people don't use it. That and Farigiraf is just better for stopping priorities. Really sad that this fish is just there. Give it an evolution so we could at least slap an Eviolite on it and then we can talk about using it.
Hey dude I think I battled this team a few days ago. My character's name is Violet in the game. Do you remember fighting someone named violet in the past few days? I was on the edge of my seat and was so excited when I realized it was you. I've been watching your videos lately and I've always liked your teams with their interesting names.
Back in gen 7, I used Bruxish all the time. Nobody expected dazzling ever, and with the amount of priority spam there was in gen 7, Bruxish was super useful. It is THE Mimikyu baiter.
I LOVE bruxish, actually. I have a feeling it's based off the clown triggerfish, what with its clownish pattern and the squirt flower on its head. The fish itself even looks kind of like it has weird lips. Being one of my favorite fish, it's no surprise that bruxish is one of my favorite pokemon 😂🎉
Hey Haydunn, I saw an Arbolivia set that was pretty cool. It gets endure and with a custap berry and it's hidden ability Harvest in the sun can go off. Tons of coverage options or go growth depending on team composition.
Haydunn obviously you’ve been doing your content for awhile now. I love your commentary and I know everyone else does too. Only thing I kinda wish you’d do is add some Pokémon music in the background like a remix. I’ve noticed you’ve been having something in the intros but just wanted to give my piece. Love ya man keep up the great work!
I've had background music in every single one LOL maybe I just have it too low and I can hear it with headphones on? I try to mix it so that its not overpowering vs the voice over
@@Haydunn now I feel bad 😅, lmao I’m gonna go with it being too low because I legit can’t hear it. As I’m typing this I can barely hear it now in this video so jeez I guess I never noticed.
This makes me wonder something. How would a Ferrothorn "sweep" work? Would it have rocky helm added with it's Iron barbs with all kinds of set up moves like stealth rocks and double toxic spikes, or would it be a regeneration king with ingrain, leech seed, leftovers, grassy terrain, and a few other healing factors? Perhaps keep a pokemon that's scary for fire types (or cross your fingers for light screen to save it's hide) to make folks think twice about switching in a wonderful counter? I'd love to see how it would be done as many don't use it due to it's poor stats and typing competitively. Btw love the content. Please do keep it up as it really opens up all kinds of possibilities for pokemon that don't get used very often and gives them their time on stage
Everybody just says a pokemon that you should do but i have reasons. Please at least read this Haydunn cause you need to use Mismagius. Mismagius is one of my favorites and it's very underatted with high speed and high special attack and high special defense defense too. It has so much too it can support with moves like willo wisp, substitute, you can spec it and have trick to stop set up, icywind curse, thunder wave and destiny bond. You can also have it be a offensive threat with shadowball, dazzling gleam for coverage, hyper voice with throat spray to boost special attack, can also set up with nasty plot, dark pulse, thunderbolt, it can also run rest sets with sleep talk and rest. It can also find a place in snow, rain, and sun teams with moves that are boosted like mystical fire and thunder while also being able to set up all three options. It also has levitate which gives it normal, fighting, and ground resistances. It can also run assault vest to eat special moves. I put too much time into researching this so I hope haydunn sees this and uses some for inspiration cause that would be sick.
Dude I was playing randomly and suddenly I saw I was against you! 😆And I won! Too bad Bruxish did nothing in our fight. It was an honor! I saved our battle with a photo.
Ive always had a weird soft spot for bruxish. It fit into an in game team i had on sun and when i heard people hating my boy ugly bob it just give it an underdog vibe to me.
Oh a video for one of my favorite pokemon. I saw this thing for the first time and was so entralled by its sheer ugliness, that I knew I needed to have one on my team.
Hayden's one of the few WiFi battlers out there who makes use of very peculiar mons and make them do work. ❤ I guess its the end of the "No Interruption" era 😢
Funny how your speed convinced them that it was dazzling bc earlier a guy was taking too long with his heracross which helped me guess that he assumed I would tera and I u-turned on him switching
Bruxish may be ugly but that thumbnail sure aint! : D That looks rly good! OMG the 2nd Round Bluff! YO! Well done! That Lapras was a large problem! Great plays, always! Thanks for sharing honest footage!
I've been battling online more lately, because of your videos. The sheer amount of sleep hacks and dumb ass legend spammers has me reconsidering being a Pokémon player. Just because you win, doesn't mean you're good at the game
I have to question the heavy duty boots on Scizor. I think lefties or something else would've gotten you more mileage. Team felt frail and vulnerable with no bulky walls besides Hitmontop.
@@HarryLouSassole Don't mind them. Having interacted with them in the past here, they just seem to always be a verbally abusive individual towards everyone for no reason.
Hey haydunn, question time. Do you ever get tired or burnt out of pokemon? I get bored of every game I play. Still searching for a game that’s going to keep me entertained. What about you?
"Once upon a time, there was an ugly fish. He was so ugly that everyone died! The end :)"
🧽😟
“That didn’t help at all!”
I am ugly and I’m proud! I am ugly and I am proud!
Is this a Despicable Me reference??
LMAO thanks for the comment.
I actually love Bruxish. It's based on the state fish of Hawaii, with the incredible Hawaiian name of "humuhumunukunukuāpua'a," which is really fun to say
Is that where that Disney singalong came from? Learned something new today.
Aye!! Me too!! I love this pan flag trigger/parrot/angler fish guy
I bit my fucking tongue trying to say....ow 😂
The movie Forgetting Sara Marshall showed me the right way to say that fish’s name
Can you type out the phonetics of that without special characters such as ö? I wanna say that
That Brux art goes super hard. Thumbs up to your artist! Also or making me laugh hard in all your videos. I love your use of crazy underused pokemoj.
That first opponent played you like a fiddle lol s/o to you for still putting it in the video
Lord Haydunn always keeping it genuine

First opponent was also using genned Mons
@@Insertnamehereplzwhats that if you dont mind me asking
@@kabe6927 generated. There's software that can make pokemon.
What a sheer coincidence that someone at home is frying fish so I can smell it while you’re sweeping with the ugly fish

That Bruxish bluff at the end was hilarious 😂
@@AwesomeUtuber69 yaaaaa sometimes the bluff works out. I mean I wouldn’t have won that match either way 🤣
You should’ve ice shard’d the bruxish, it would’ve out speed your lapras anyway
@@justinherrera3722 I thought it had that ability that prevents priority. A risk I did not take
I feel like I'm the only person in existence who actually likes Bruxish. It's garish and ugly, but that's the point of it. To be jarring and kitsch in a campy, over-the-top way. It's really unique and personally, I find it fun
Saaame... The moment I saw it I knew it had to be on my team... Love that beauty queen
No I like it too and for the exact same reasons as you
Finally found someone who also like bruxish
Same. Triggerfish are pretty cool and brutal, despite their weird looks.
The camp drag queen of pokemon
My favorite part of this video is seeing all of my fellow bruxbros in the comments. Used it in my playthrough of scarlet and it was one of my favorites. It’s really strong
When you suggested psychic fangs should bypass protect I immediately shivered thinking of that buffed solgaleo/dusk mane ignoring protects xD

I still absolutely love how the Pokémon named after Bruxism (involuntarily clenching of the jaw) deals extra damage with bites.
Okay now hear me out. Trick room team with Toxapex as the ace. Set up toxic spikes and demolish teams by having the merciless ability
Go a step further and include the evolved form of salandit and poison/toxic those steel and poison types
At first battle you say at 10:11 you’re only worried for Meow but Meow already went down lol
Bruxfish is known as the ugliest Pokémon in existence?
Feebas: CAN'T HAVE SH!T
I actually was surprised when I got a Bruxish team in a random (where your team is randomized) Showdown match, and learned how amazing it can be. Wave Crash and Psychic Fangs can rip through some teams.

Right at lunch time, you know what you’re doing 😂
Gotta make sure the homies have something to watch while eating

imagine it getting like fishious rend or something lol
Speaking of “ugly”
Maybe a video trying to use “Purugly” ? I know it’s very fast, will be interesting to see you try to use it

Yeah I think Hitmontop’s animation is funny when poisoned and stuff, poison activates dance as slow as you can challenge!
Cool vid Haydunn. I'd personally liked to have seen Dazzling at use also. Baton pass or setup Agility and get to woorrrrrk. No stopping the Bumfish

Choice Specs Special Dragonite was the guy in my gen 6 rain team.
Imagine if Bruxish got Fishious Rend like in that blessed PokéRogue run 🤣
Why do people hate Bruxish's design so much??
I love it! It kinda looks like the yellow submarine from the Beatles!

I’ve always loves her desing most pokemon fans are just boring
Lovvvveeeeeee the new intro music
Regieleki sweeper would be cool to see
I love how Bruxish is actually meant to be pretty, but it just looks so unsettling and creepy looking that it rolls right back into ugly territory
Alolan Jynx goes crazy 🥶
2 game bluff was amazing
Ugly kinda strong and proud. He just like me fr
Finally someone know it’s potential!
That looks like the fish from dark cloud 2
