Howdy, friends đ€
The name's Rabia, and here you'll find a whole bunch of competitive Pokemon content! While I mostly focused on Smogon's NeverUsed (NU) tier, I occasionally branch out to other metagames, the most common of which being CAP---OU but with Fakemon. I do my best to produce high-quality, informative videos in the hopes of inspiring new players to keep improving. It's a daunting task and not easy, but I'm here to help in any way that I can.

Scream Tail is FINALLY GOOD in competitive singles?
Scream Tail is the worst of the new Paradox Pokemon, but it finally has a good niche in NU! It's the best Gallade check available, and with Roar, it can stop any bulky setup sweeper very easily :] Enjoy!

This is why you NEED to use Cobalion (UU)

Cobalion has basically always been an amazing UU Pokemon. Ever since Generation 5, it has ended up being UU and quite good at that.

Cornerstone Ogerpon is picking up a lot of calls for action in UU lately because people are experimenting with new coverage moves on it. Stomping Tantrum (I INVENTED THIS SET) beats Steel-types, while Zen Headbutt helps against Poison-types. Let's see how it does :] Enjoy!

Aqua Tauros is SURGING in this NU Viability Rankings update...
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 1,5KPĆed 21 hodinou
Aqua Tauros was really broken several months ago in NU, but it's fallen to PU since then and been irrelevant in the tier until recently. Now, since Feraligatr and Cloyster got banned, people are back to giving Aqua Tauros a shot in the tier, so let's talk about why that is plus all the other viability rankings changes :] Enjoy!

That first game took ages!
Really surprised Scream Tail is all the way down in NU. Thing's kind of a problem in the tiers above being unkillable
It should be banned in the TCG for sure.
So that's why they call him Storkey. I didn't expect the story to be so violent
Scream is rlly good in the tier its in also lmao
A features length video would by necessity be longer than 55 minutes. 55 days just so happens to be the amount of time I've been asking you to use a mono fire starter team.
Huge L as a fact.
special torterra when
Rabia make a video actually highlighting the featured mon challenge (impossible) Though in all seriousness, another great video!
You should do a compilation of how many times a different Pokemon (Scream Tail) stole the spotlight of the intended feature mon (Breloom), cause it has happened so many times at this point. XD
bulky set up Breloom is one of my favorite sets ever, the definition of an honest pokemon
Guy hits 1200 then just makes a new account. yikers
10 minute shorter queue for the same opponent seems worth to me
The struggle of being a content creator of the lower tiers is that barely anyone is active on the mid-high ladder, thus it takes forever to find new games. This kind of thing will happen all the time.
I kinda get it though. The higher you get, the less opponents you find on the ladder in lower tiers.
I like how the meloetta in the thumbnail is riding scyther now i wish meloetta could ride my girth type shiii
đŁïžđŁïžđŁïžGET THE HELL OFF MY LADDER
i remember how ppl were hating on cobalion at the beginning of this gen
really interesting if i recall cobalion was not present at the start of the gen
Imma be real chief this ability shield rotom has never done jack shit
It's for excadrill I think. This item actually makes rotom a complete counter
Are your daily uploads better than your Dr đ§ââïž friend?
Skeledirge is my favorite fire starter, too bad all the other fire starters are kinda ass now. Using Dirge on a mono fire starter team would mean itâd have to be UU.
Sandy Shocks was so good in this one! I used to run a boots spikes Volt, TBolt, EP set with Spe boosting EVs in Sun before Gliscor returned. This reminded me of that kinda. It sucks that bro's double stabs are ineffective against so many mons that it's running Power Gem as coverage. It's a really cool spiker though. I like his troll 101 speed.
I made a joke forever ago when people were first discussing Fickle Beam: someone's going to get hit with a 3x damage crit and be mad Depending on how you look at it, you got hit with 6x damage, at least 6x higher than it should have hit after a Leaf Storm without all-out And Torn-T didn't even take 75%. 160 base power, STAB, ignoring the drop, x1.5 from crit. Good birb.
AV do kinda be OP.
Can someone explain to me the sense of Cobalion having Volt Switch?
@@misters6749 Itâs there to be a pivot mon. Come in, take hits, dole Rocky Helmet chip, and leave the situation while dealing some extra chip in the meantime, which is very valuable to offensive threats (for an example in the video, Cobalion helped to beat a couple Lokix down)
While I would agree normally it would be pretty pointless, because itâs a fast mon with a pivot move, but you have enough tanks on the team with recovery (Torn and Rotom) that it doesnât really matter how fast youâre pivoting with it, as long as youâre getting residual damage
@@malnemesisI think heâs asking why it learns the move to begin with đ
I love how coballion has been a UU goat for 5 generations straight
Can't wait for gen 10 power creep where Cobalion apparently is not even tiered anymore
What having SR + Volt Switch, a good defensive typing, great speed and Defense and offensive stats that are good enough to not be a sitting duck either and a movepool wide enough to fit the list of all of Blunder's needless chokes does to a mf :
@@LordAryualways gotta be the 1 guy who doesnât play making comments like this
You know itâs gonna be a great video when itâs said to be a showcase for another mon, just for a different mon to take the title
the goat
Loaded dice with no multi hit is innovation
i yoinked the paste but subbed out the gallade for a lorb shao bc i dislike gallade and he's probably getting banned soon so i wanted to be able to keep using the structure
Gligar in UU goes crazy
araquanid is a super cool and unique mon with an ability that might be a bit too busted but its really fun to use its also thematically probably accurate to its design unlike mienshao
3:13 parental bond ftw
I'm INNOVATING! LOL LOL LOL
Rabia, what happened to SPYDER? He's so lost and forlorn. He's going to drink so much bug juice when he finds out you've found a new webs setter.
That was swag
If I dial M for monke, will you use a mono fire starter team? M
Ryan....
Yeah i definitely didnât play my best in that game. Was kinda frustrated at that point đ going lass like I did was a misplay but I was also just disappointed in the team at that point. Also didnât Tera water jet (which I did have) vs kilo because I knew it didnât kill kilo. Also turn 1 I clicked destiny bond because I thought chandy was going to be scarf, but I thought you guys were gonna click shadow ball instead of trick. Also Rabia Iâve been a thorns believer for a long time, but I donât think I am anymore. Maybe itâs a skill issue, but every team Iâve made with thorns post shift has just felt mid.
Araquanid my boy
ive been an araquanid lover since gen 7 đŻđŻđŻ
Pokeaim posts a custap video today and you do too. Nice!
You either die an opponent or live long enough to join rabias channel

itâs a shame i donât see rabia responding to comments as much anymore :-/ he used to respond to every single comment which was one of the reasons i subbed but i get it. happy for your growth though king đ«Ž đ
Rabia the realest for promoting Joeyâs drink on his own channel fr
Hoopa unbound showcase that shit was unreal
Conclusion: Ogerpon is ass, Hoopa needs to get banned.
The fire starter guy got 2 now
*Seconds after seeing Toxapex Tera Fairy and Toxicking it* "He's probably Tera Grass Ogerpon"
Rabia against that Greninja last game, couldn't you have just Tera Steeled your Thund T on the Battle Bond turn and got a 100% win path?
Hoopa U is crazy in UU, wtf? I haven't seen him this strong in forcever. It's literally like Dracovish, you don't resist Dark, you are gone. This is the mon they should be banning. You can't have a scarfed KO button against half the tier.

I met a Stomping Tantrum Cornerstone Ogerpon today. Now I know why
vindication moment
GLIGAR???!?!?!?!?!
It's not common, but it was seeing some niche usage in tournaments recently. I think there was actually one week where it got more usage in uubd than Metagross, which had been a staple for a while but has fallen off. Fezandipity is another mon that has recently started seeing usage in tournaments, partially because it's a fairly reliable check into hoopa
