    We're Gaming Folks. New Merch available until August 18th EST.
    Pokemon Showdown Competitive Singles exists. ADV ZU is a format.
    Is this insane?

    Graveller, Castform, Seaking, Ponyta, and more, are members of the metagame.
    The below text is very relevant to many people.
    Game Freak just blew all other online game development schools out of the water with this incredible new 2022 release. You're gonna need to get a game design degree online, and FAST, if you want to make a better game than this. Not even the best strategy games android reddit could hold a candle to this breathtaking Next generation competitive Pokemon experience.
    Scream Tail is the Jigglypuff of our wildest dreams. It has been buffed with some higher statistics and the incredible ability, Protosynthesis. Gen 9 Competitive Pokemon wouldn't be the same without this powerful pink blob. He kinda looks like someone I met in one of my game design and development courses.
    Gen 9 Pokemon Showdown is one of the greatest online gaming sites in history. From Pikachu and Charizard, to Palafin and Roaring Moon, The new Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, have introduced a lot of new faces. Can I succeed in one of the best android games of all time? If so, I'm gonna get myself a Walmart bakery Pokemon cake to celebrate.
    Gholdengo is a Pokemon made of pure gold. He must have done some online business management courses to accumulate all that wealth. Or perhaps he might want to learn how to make money playing video games on CZcams. In any case, he's a powerful metagame force, with absolutely no interest in online game development schools.

    It might be worth running a cheeky thiefmon just to blank Clamperl in the ZU ladder.
    If there is no Clamperl, just steal someone's lefties.

    • @Ivanhoenn
      @Ivanhoenn Před měsícem +3

      that is true, and it's destructive power certainly won't lead to a clamiable outcome. And even as clamplicated as it is, there's clample room for adjustments.

    The overcentralization around Clamperl is severe.

  • @Rumielle
    @Rumielle Před měsícem +4

    Another thing that could potentially work on para-spam, maybe instead of graveler is Cubone, which hits harder and doesn't instantly die to a stray hp grass. Though graveler DOES help vs all the returns and double edges flyin around. This tier is surprisingly multi-dimensional!!

  • @coralanturn

    as soon as i saw clamperl allowed in zu i was befuddled and bewildered because i'd seen Joey use it in OU in BDSP

    • @Joaquin-rd3km
      @Joaquin-rd3km Před měsícem

      Really? Have you seen that clam stats? lmao it sucks, sure it hits insanely hard with its item, but it dies to a slight breeze and is slow as molasses. Only in RS ZU it's good, because it's the only tier where base 35 HP doesn't mean instant death, and base 32 speed can outspeed some stuff. And yeah the item is obviously banned in LC.

  • @cjer6040
    @cjer6040 Před měsícem +6

    Jim, I've tried my hand at this meta and I think the Choice Band Snubbull anti-meta is very strong. He is a very powerful man, despite his LC ranking.
