The people who play in these tournaments are truly the real life Pokemon Masters
it is difficult to fight teams of ubers with technical supports but its far more difficult to build non-uber teams that play out unique strategies. nice to see more than Amoongus Kanga leads this year though
Going back and watching VGC matches from previous years, the thumbnail of this match really tells you everything you need to know about the 2016 meta, featuring both primals and a mega rayquaza.
There are always prevalent Pokémon features on majority of teams
Theyve allowed legends since otherwise the meta would be the same as '15, and it made a ton of interesting strategies and made otherwise half-decent Pokémon relevant (Raichu, Bronzong)
Game 2 HAS to be the closest match I have ever watched.
Welcome to VGC, where primals are allowed and timer stalling will take you to the top!
Ethan Erwin Pokemon is like the only competitive place where timer stalling can win you games. It's just a joke to include ''great sportsmanship'' in a tournament where you win because of timer stall.
Kek Sai or sports
Kek Sai football, basketball, soccer, pretty much every sport with a timer

i wish more creative teams could make it to the top..
Same teams usually make it to the playoffs in most sports
- Battle 1 : 5:37
- Battle 2 : 16:14
Battle 2 = BORING !!
Look and tell me if the end is not boring...
He waiting the end of the timers for win...
Thanks, Pokemon. I needed some more videos to remind me how much this year's VGC sucks so bad.
that other guy totally won if it wasnt timer stalled like what is this...isnt time stalling against the rules or something or considered as bad sport? yet its encouraged ??
Blue Zard it's actually not, according to the updated rules. Timer stalling actually requires a decent amount of skill, since you have to plan the damage you're allowed to take multiple turns ahead. It's also not easy to notice the time running down.
Grande grande Eduardo paaaaaaaa Portugal Sempre
Portugal!!!!!!
Força Portugal
Omg all these Pokémon are all op use something different once in a while
+TooFrosty
Yeah, I really feel like they shouldn't be allowed to use Legendaries in these battles
this is an important tournament , you can’t just bring a zubat to a mainly ou and ubers match
What a stupid way to cheese out a win game 2
Baris is so handsome, though.
Come on Portugal!!!!
ITS THE SAME TEAM EVER SINGLE DAY
H4V0C excuse me, but the most common team throughout the season was Xerneas Groudon Smeargle Kangaskhan Salamence and talonflame. The rayquaza Kyogre team you see here was built by 3 players and had plenty of innovative techs.
cheap victory. that should've been a disqualification
D. Rogers and why's that?
+D. Rogers Lol what?
So you can win through timer just by making sure all of your pokemon have higher max hp values??? That's just stupid. Should look at remaining pokemon numbers, their hp, THEN % team hp remaining. Fainted team hp values mean literally nothing but are valued higher than remaining pokemon's hp??? smh.

dragon rage...
camron reynosa ...relevance?
Raloris MMO
nome 😃
ahem.... none*
is this what competitive pokemon is now :( everyone using the same generalized teams of primals, xerneous and cressilia with a choice of ubers and a mega kangaskan? wheres the creative players? it pretty much "who can play the popular team better" rather then "who's unique lineup will reign triumphant" maybe next pokemon tournemt will be different with the release of sun and moon...
camron reynosa the most popular team didn't even make the top32! This was actually a year full of variety!
EmbC
i keep seeing primals rayquaza and cressilia
Cresselia wasn't even on this set. Actually, there wasn't a single Cresselia on top 4 of the World Championships. Also, we were allowed to use 2 legends per team this season. Not doing so would be foolish. It ended up being a fun format precisely because of that. It's a similar concept to other games. You have 2 main powerhouses that you have to protect by playing carefully and wisely!
it's not just those 3. Look at the top 100 of Worlds and show me someone using the most common team of the format (Xerneas Groudon Smeargle Kangaskhan Smeargle Talonflame). You'll only find japanese players using it. Only 2 Xerneas+Groudon users made top 8 and plenty of interesting Xerneas+Rayquaza combos did well. Those 2 together are a very uncommon duo. Also, the fun of competitive pokémon is the strategy. Seeing too many uncommon Pokémon just makes it an unpredictable showdown of weak moves. What's the fun in that? The beauty of competitive is a mix of clever thinking and solid plans, as well as strong teambuilding. Sure, seeing the same stuff over and over can be annoying, especially if you're too lazy to try to understand what's going on, but you can't even complain about this specific tournament! We had 3 Hitmontop in top 4! Do you have any idea of how rare of a Pokémon that used to be? We also had 2 Assault Vest Raichu, a Safeguard Kangaskhan, a Substitute Groudon, 2 Swords Dance Rayquaza and the list goes on! I understand that you enjoy variety, but damaging the community's image with those comments isn't fair. Thank you for your time, and I hope you understand how hurtful it can be for us, players, to see how upset the more casual community feels about us.
I mean you say a year full of variety but pretty much every team had at least 1 poke'mon in common.
That's such a cheap way to cheese the second game
lol I got a Entai,Rayquaza,Heatran, regigigas,darkrai and victini
+Dylan Lanphear its not about the pokemon rarity, its about the pokemon's skills and moves... -.-

cool
That time game in Game 2 was completely absurd, talk about getting mega cheesy cheapness.
Ashely Gordon have you ever tried to timer stall before? Do you have any idea of how hard it is to plan hp numbers multiple turns prior?
+EmbC Don't bother. The people writing those comments don't even play VGC. It like me hating on Nascar.
+Ketchupplant You don't need to play VGC to realize how unaligned the game timer was to the skills the competitions are supposed to be measuring. Don't bother arguing with this because that's exactly why timer rules have changed for WCS 2017
+recognition21 But you kinda do. It's not just 'waiting out the time'. You still need to make the right (defensive) plays, or sometimes even offensive plays to maintain momentum. Most people that don't play VGC don't realize that.
+Ketchupplant
You're misunderstanding my post.
I'm not trying to belittle the complex strategy behind playing under shared time. I'm emphasizing that this layer of strategy is not condoned by Worlds, at least not anymore.
While indeed there are skill sets that arise from shared time as you are pointing out, the fact remains that this timer method is now being abandoned for WCS 2017. If the competitions such as Worlds intentionally emphasized this type of skillset then there would be no need for the change to My Time where Timer Stalling is now impossible because only you can lose if you try to do it.
Skills such as maintaining momentum through time or strategically trying to win by time are part of an unintentional skill meta that resulted from bad game design which is now being corrected for Gen 7
hi
Hi
Goin' Deep hello
Wow, look at those shiny Pokemon are are definently not hacked. Hacking? What even is that?
türk mü la o
5 minutes of playing for time? Infuriating
? I didn't say it was illegal.
I would probably win in this I have a
arceus
darkrai
dialga
giratina
mew
zapdos
just so u know, yes I was a moder XD
No you would not have won. You would have been disqualified for not reading the rules.
Even IF that team was allowed you would've lost badly to these strategical players
STRANGE_BRO fair enough actually I just thought if it was allowed I had this combo where I put them to sleep with darkrai, sword dance and then dark pulse and every time ei was in multilayer they would normally faint,
but fair enough I know wut u mean
TheMarUlberg I agree XD
just thought I would say it XD
Swords Dance -> Dark Pulse
Next level strats
türkleri alalım
Maybe first...?
