  • In this video, I try out an interesting Sun team that finished in the top 50 of the October Ranked season! It utilizes a lot of tricks such as Focus Sash Flutter Mane with Trick Room, Defense Booster Energy Brute Bonnet, Rocky Helmet Torkoal, and Cornerstone Ogerpon! Cornerstone Ogerpon in particular can deal massive amounts of damage and catch opposing teams off guard. It's also a great pick into teams with Amoonguss as it can ignore Rage Powder!

    QOTD - Ogerpon is probably the single most interesting pokemon in the format. It can serve tons of purposes, from offensive sweepers to defensive support mons. It also doesn’t feel overpowered or overbearing in the metagame, which is a real breath of fresh air after dealing with urshifu for multiple regulations. I can’t wait to see how it continues to develop

  • @JStarStorm
    @JStarStorm Před 6 měsíci +13

  • @jenikabartlett9396

    As a note, that blood moon had taken Life Orb recoil when it vaccum waved, so it wasn't at 100% when you power whipped.

  • @organicguy3462
    @organicguy3462 Před 6 měsíci +36

    Am I missing something or side Stomping would have been a very bad choice in 20:27 game 1 no matter what? Stomping has 75 base power, which becomes 150 if you miss. Cudgel has 100 but gets STAB so 150 as well. Both are neutral into Amoonguss. But Cudgel does not make contact, preventing Rocky Helmet, and also has that higher crit chance. Am I wrong?

    • @gabrielescudero1993
      @gabrielescudero1993 Před 6 měsíci +4

      Yes, I was thinking exactly all you pointed. Ivy Cudgel is a safer option because Rocky Helmet damage would be catastrophic, the only reason I realised is if Amoongus was Aguav Berry or another one which activates on 1/3 HP, but Sitrus is more common in first place.

    • @benr1279
      @benr1279 Před 6 měsíci +3

      He did something similar in game 2, where he stompinged a Tera Fire Hands instead of Ivy Cudgeling, my best guess is that internally he thinks cornerstone is ground? Idk

    • @benr1279
      @benr1279 Před 6 měsíci

      Yeah he also used stomping tantrum when ivy cudgel would have done the same damage to Arcanine (75x4=100x1.5x2), I think there is probably something else

    • @obey_giant
      @obey_giant Před 6 měsíci

      I was thinking the same thing. I don’t think stomping had a benefit, maybe he just got mixed up or something?

    • @hardworkingslacker7233
      @hardworkingslacker7233 Před 6 měsíci +2

      I think he missed the Stab bonus modifier and thought "2x75 is more than 1x100".
      Ivy Cudgel is almost always better than stomping tantrum which is probably mainly there for hitting steel types for super effective damage.

  • @angelitabecerra
    @angelitabecerra Před 6 měsíci +3

    Just for reference of why maths are cool (or hurt):
    The chance for Rock Slide hitting both opponents is 81%
    The chance of making both opponents flinch is 9% (if it's already connected)
    The chance of all of that happening is 7.29%. You'd have better luck with Fissure.

    Hey Cybertron . Thanks for all the content. Id like to ask you if you could probably make an updated guide about getting started with teambuilding for new players. Sometimes I just dont know how people build their teams so fast without doing hacks or stuff like that. Especially when you need to change values on your legendary pokemon.
    A guide would be great to tie everything together :)

    I'm late here but game 3 turn 1, I think cudgel is the same damage with a safer result, isn't it? Mask boost, stab, and super effectiveness all accounted for, both have 360 base power into harcanine.

    "since chien pao's special defense is pretty slow"
    you mean both its defenses are pretty slow, it is literally a paper tiger 😂
    also, the fact that volcarona could've wipe the entire team if not for bonnet is scary! it is nice to see this pokemon in reg e, since i wasn't playing before last season to see it, and i very rarely see it on ladder even though i don't play very often after master

    QOTD: Oddly enough, Ogerpon feels like it kind of goes against the idea of Terra-type-changing, as is the gimmick of this generation. All other mons, you may have an idea what the common Terra types are, but you may be wrong. Ogerpon you just know exactly what to expect - so there are no surprises, and make it a lot more predictable as to what it's going to do. And you can't really select a defensive Terra either. So.. It's interesting, yet feels restrictive compared to all other mons for competitive play
