    tiny disclaimer: technically, a few elite players have theorized about super hardcore, dedicated stall teams without snorlax, so yes, it is POSSIBLE...but they haven't been used in serious tournaments (yet).
    here's the remix used: czcams.com/video/HUiL_N7QVcg/video.html

    This video was too long. Halfway through it, I got hungry so I left it playing and went to the kitchen to fix myself a sandwich. But then I found out that I'm out of mayonnaise so I went to a store. There, I saw the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my whole life. But I'm a really shy person so I took up a three-year personality development course so I could introduce myself. She was very friendly and all, but unfortunately, she had a boyfriend. So I said, all good, I'm a mature person. I wanted the best for her and I harbored no illusion that I am the best person for her and she seems happy with her boyfriend, so I did not bother her anymore. But we kept in touch and we became friends and I got over my crush on her. Then she broke up with her boyfriend, we drank some alcohol because of it. I told her she'll be fine and I wished her well. I still think she's the most beautiful woman in the world, but like I said, I am over my crush on her. It was like five years already since I first saw her. Besides, I am quiet happy with the friendship I developed with her. It was more important than a crush. So we kept hanging out, drinking, having coffee, and all. I had a girlfriend, she started dating other guys. My girlfriend wanted to live some other life without me in it, so I said, "Okay, I want the best for you and I want you to pursue your happiness." My lady friend and I drank alcohol about it, and she gave me the same advice I gave her when she was in that position and I became okay with the breakup immediately. But we were really drunk, so she spent the night in my apartment. I only have one bed, so you know what that means: She took the bed and I slept on the couch. But on the couch, I really can't sleep. Something was bothering me. So I tossed and turned for about three hours, then I finally couldn''t take it anymore, I stood up and went straight to my room where she's sleeping. I approached the bed, gently sat on it and I reached for her shoulder to pull her closer to me. She stirred and woke up. She asked what's up. I told her, "you know, the first time I saw you, I was watching a video and left it playing to get myself a sandwich then went to the store to get some mayo then I got so distracted by life that I forgot to finish the video." She said, "You know what, I've been wondering about a weird noise in your night drawer." So we opened that drawer, and lo and behold, there's my phone and this video still has two minutes of play time on it.

    Being in constant battle with scattered thoughts from a mind inherited by schizophrenic parents is a daily struggle.
    Having multiple trains of thought running all at once and trying to hold onto a single one without losing it has been made painfully clear from conversations with peers.

    One interesting thing about Gen 2 specifically (along with the Belly Drum failure quirk I didn't know), is that moves with an increased critical hit ratio have a +2 crit rate instead of +1 (according to Bulb). This means that Machamp's Cross Chop always has a 25% to OHKO Lax, even through Curse boosts (or apparently Defense Curls) which is pretty nifty. Obviously it's not worth relying on, but it's definitely noteworthy imo and can be boosted to a 33% chance with Scope Lens.

    Is there any chance Snorlax could get banned from GSC OU? It definitely meets Uber criteria by various other generations' standards. I assume the only reason it hasn't been banned is because its presence is something that the diehard GSC fanbase genuinely enjoys, essentially "Yeah it's broken but we want it around anyway." Which, you know... if that's how they want to do it, they certainly can.

    • @BKCplaysPokemon

      no chance it gets banned. it's been tried before, and the lax meta is way, way better than the non lax meta.

    Yo I’m only 6:43 into the video thus far but I had to stop and comment when you scrolled over the items. Gen 2 has a berserk gene? That looks so fun and wild like sure, it would probably make current games become way more luck-based but damn I wish they kept that. Also never played gen 2 so very interested in your Snorlax commentary.

      Because it's been so long that removing Snorlax would make a generation that's so optimized in complete shambles.

      And besides, if that isn't enough to convince you, listen to the players of the tier; they'll tell you that they would like to keep lax.
