Actually I am poor
Hi
vgc vegetarians unite!
Keto is pronounced key-toe not ke-toe. Love the video!
i have an idea for a video: use fan-made teams to win games (vgc series 2)
Im so surprised that Wolfey managed to go a full 40 seconds without mentioning the world champ difference that he posseses.
0:35 about that...
I can’t tell if this is sarcasm, because it was literally brought up 40 seconds in.
Right‽
I'm sooooo sick nd irritated of that chiz. Lol
That braggadocious phrase and attitude.
Albeit, he can say it all he wants, and I can't even be mad, cuz HE can actually back it up.
Unlike others who say something outlandish, then when push comes to shove, they can't put their money where their mouth is.
So, I can't deny it any longer.
He has the "World Champ Difference."
And it's apparently very, VERY real. 🤷🏾♂️
But he does have the world champ difference
@@dancingqueen5428 thats literaly what im saying lmao, I thought he would mention it sooner
Wolfey anti-trick room-ing so his opponent would reset up his trick room is some anime levels of plot, I love it
Deeper than "Akagi"
If you play pokemon too much I can assure you that you can make crazy reads like these in almost every match!!
Some JoJo fight sequences here
That one guy with glasses: "It's showtime!"
@@cyan_wings5420 Yup. That's Wolfe.
The manic laughter wolfey had in the third game lmao bro was losing it 😭
In his joker arc
I would rage so hard at those odds.
15:05 wild ride from here on out
True but it was also how he recovered from the impact of that bad luck streak
Kingambit realizes that wearing safety goggles doesn't actually need his hands, and used that to also hold a focus sash. The true king of knowledge
This got an earnest laugh from me, I almost spit my tea, Kingambit suddenly getting Sturdy
I love how Wolfe always calls upon the world champ difference as his last resort
it's like the power of friendship, I mean, he's the protagonist after all XD
@@jakwq8994 proof?
aka the ego difference :)
@@SuperTex068 he's obviously joking and if you can't see that you have no sense of humor
@@raymariopokenic1561 its a joke 😐
I have never seen a man as close to the exact optimal amount of confidence as Wolfe Glicke. Not too much, but not too little.
He's got the World Champ Difference confidence
58:30 calc for anyone wondering
244 Atk Talonflame Flare Blitz vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Kingambit in Sun: 192-228 (92.7 - 110.1%) -- 50% chance to OHKO
My mans should have invested 252 into attack
@Sussus Amogus I mean the guy who made the team, probs would have won a regional with 252 Atk Talonflame
@@Junya01 questionable goofy teambuilding pros have
@@Junya01 he probably has a reason to invest into some bulk
Man literally won a 50-50
Hey Wolfe, I built your round one team! Glad to see that you did well with it!
The matchup was abysmal and he still pulled out a W
@@poweredman World Champ diff
@poweredman I think you're in the wrong thread for this kind of energy 😅
Sorry to hear that we disagree
@@poweredman ?
Bro mad he dont got the world champ difference
Kingambit surviving at 1% in game 2 was such an anime moment. I have to know what the damage roll for that was
Basically a 50/50
it was actually 0.5% showdown just only shows full percentages unless you hover your mouse, but you can see it says he took 99.5% dmg
244 Atk Talonflame Flare Blitz vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Kingambit in Sun: 192-228 (92.7 - 110.1%) -- 50% chance to OHKO
He’s winning too many tournaments as of late, someone stop this man
spidops will put him in his place
the world champ difference is too strong, its repelling competitors with a forcefield
I mean last year he didn't win very much
except the one that matters
@@Numberplay Orlando tournament: Am i a joke to you?
That double trick room call was actually insane. I didn't think the world champ difference was real at first, but now, I am a firm believer...
That trick room read at the end was really insane. Congrats on the win!

*Proceeds to think about all of his moves*
@@Warlord_Megatron*The Viewers* Congratulations you played yourself
my personal motto during my exams that if i fail, i will likely do nothing with my life but oh well
@@Warlord_Megatron but he thought about it in a smart way, so does that make him smart or more stupid?
you cant mindgame the mindless
Dude that last section is brilliant, I badly wanted to see you use the Torkoal team, then you said the Dragargle team was better and I was like damn... AND THEN YOU SAID YOU WERE A CONTENT CREATOR so I fist pumped, thank you Wolfey.
Me too! I love Torkoal teams I find it very satisfying when they manage to use the full hp eruption
Why don't Americans know English... its dragalge...
Crazy how smart Wolf is and how many calculations he accounts for, truly the World Champ difference
I really like how you switch between post commentary, and excerpts from the stream, it’s such a nice flow and keeps me totally immersed in the story
That Kingambit Survival was INSANE!!
What the odds on this attack's range?
Kingambit suddenly gaining sturdy
@@Piohm it was 50/50
Wolfe saying "this is my joker moment" in his matter-of-fact commentator voice is unbelievably funny
So THAT's what Surge meant by "paralyze your enemies and friends into submission".
You got me at the end, i thought you didn't actually win for a second haha
Well what other outcome was possible?
@@toastytoad8154 WCD
That Kingambit in the second to last set seriously did the "grizzled veteran somehow survives something that should have killed 11 times out of 10 and then goes to save the day" thing
Well I ran the calcs and Kingambit surviving is actually MORE likely than a double protect, so honestly the opponent has nothing to mald about.
that final game was INSANE. recently wolfey has been on a hot streak bringing us all of these amazing videos, so I just wanna say thank you for all of the hard work and effort you put into these videos and keep up the good work
I respect that when Wolfey gets unlucky, he just laughs, I wish I was as collected as he is. I guess it's the world champ difference.
Wolfey is such a good story teller that even tho he is the world champ it still feels like he's the underdog!!
His luck is the nerf to his world champ difference
There’s no way the man who has been playing Pokémon for YEARS called dragalge “dragargle”💀💀
he enjoys intentionally mispronouncing certain pokémon names, just to get rides out of some people
38:30 that one hair flying off the mic lol
I remember this stream lol. This was the one where Wolfey was getting awful luck.
What do you mean double freeze from blizzard is bad luck?😂
Looking at the Hasty Gyarados, I think it might be hasty nature so that you aren't reducing tera blast's damage if gyarados hasn't terastallized.
I don't know if it's actually worth it, but it's the only reason I could think of
Hey, I'm the guy who built the gyarados team, indeed that's the reason why it's Hasty but not because it was a personal choice of me, I simply didn't have too much time when building this team for a tour and decided to roll with the suggested showdown set since I wanted gyarados to be max speed... Of course without realicing the Hasty nature since sd count tera blast as a special move.
@@AlvaroCarrascoJuradoidk why showdown thinks that if you have let’s say for example uturn on iron bundle that you would want attack evs and a hasty or naive nature when uturn is just for the switch
@@jaseplays9975because it’s Based on Smogon’s Prediction,Not Based on VGC,Which is really not in Favour when you play VGC instead of Smogon Single and Doubles
@@MorrisPXG but that’s still dumb like they want me specs dragapult to have ninja spedef nature to boost uturn damage when uturn is just to scout you don’t need it to do damage you know
@@jaseplays99751. Don't use showdown recommended spreads, they're algorithmically made they aren't from the community or anything. 2. It's actually very common to run hasty/naive on fast special attackers with pivot moves (for example pult), though it would be kinda stupid to run on iron bundle specifically.
Absolute non-stop insane plays. Jesus this man really has the world champ difference.
Honestly I think random battles on showdown are pretty fun
Fun, yes
Balanced, not quite
Since this was a tournament, I guess using random TEAMS is better than random mons
Such a brave opinion, thanks for sharing
@matt4200 yeah tbh it's pure luck, who gets the better mons and sets wins
@@paps_yt no it is not pure luck, it needs A LOT (key word: alot) of skill to climb the ladder. Can't just be the no. 1 on the ladder with pure luck.
The sets are pre-determined as well
@muk9755 well I mean of course it takes skill but tbh if you do a battle against a player with the same skill as you whoever gets the best sets wins
Kingambit surviving Talonflame Flare Blitz IN THE SUN was insane
You got me so good at the end. There were only 3 minute left in the video and I thought that was going to be the end. That was such an amazing run from you despite having terrible luck throughout the entire tournament your Kingambit manage to survive flare blitz which goes to show that if you use up a lot of your bad luck you will some good luck later on. Seriously tho, winning a tournament despite all of the bad luck but clutching it at the end was entertaining to watch. Congrats on winning and I guess this goes to show that you do have the world champ difference.
9:36 I feel like the soul reading aspect of pokemon is something he needs to do more. It could just be the narrative he weaves, but it feels like a lot of his losses last year came from him predicting the opponent’s play exactly but deciding to “keep them honest.” Losses also came from him being entirely unpredictable for him with strange teams and stuff though
Dragargle, famously a Pokémon fusion of a dragon and a dentist
That Gambit surviving the Flare Blitz... man... that was crazy.
Top 10 most Insane Anime Moments ever made

“This is my joker moment” 😭😭😭 serene grace wash rotom paralyzing everyone
Kingambit surviving on 1 hp is such an anime moment.
Hearing in specifically this video how close you are to a million subscribers had me do a double take. I’ve been watching you since the gen 8 draft league where you always told a 30 minute story about anything. To another 5 years of real youtubist content!
Crazy how much he’s grown in the past year. So happy for the man, dudes worked hard for it
Same here! So cool too see
the 2nd last game was extremely wild, the opponent was probably malding at that absolutely disgusting range that the kingambit survived on. Was extremely fun to watch wolf keep rocking man 🤘🤘
This man has some of the worst luck I have ever seen, and yet he presses on. What a madman.
Also you're the reason I create competitive teams thanks wolfe
This is the best format for Pokémon, because it never repeats itself!
nah they did you dirty. those 2 turns had a 9 in 40 THOUSAND chance of happening. 💀 the crit, para, and full para, then the para and full para is crazy
Wow, didn't lose a single set. Incredible. Now THAT'S the world champ difference.
Would be such a cool idea for Pokémon themselves to do a tournament where all the Pokémon are randomised, Battle Frontier style
i literally cried in the end,, so happy you won with that torkoal trick room team,that was epic!!!
i love your videos so much

lmao that world champ diff baby! I mentioned it recently, it's like your catch phrase at this point! Great win and PHENOMENAL Comeback!
if anyone was wondering the % of kingambit surviving the flareblitz from talonflame on sun, its 50% based on the stats showed on the video!
Even though the video title gave away the ending, the suspense still had me sweatin'.
Same wtf. That gambit survival tho
By the time I got to the end, I already forgot the title spoiled it and got genuinely surprised and hyped when kingambit survived
This was beautifully played my friend!
2:05 I've never heard Dra-gargle before, but no one will stop me from saying that now lmao
That trick room read on the last set was so mind blowing!! Let's go Wolfey!!!
Damn this was amazing sir! :D Loved every second of it..the turntables!

@@disgust2120 np
"Unfortunate" doesn't begin to describe my series, this game rewards blind luck and nothing else, I am beyond convinced at this point. After getting completely tooled by scheduling with my opponent changing times on me last minute and refusing to provide confirmation prior to the day of the match as to play times, losing this way somehow felt even worse than I had thought possible. My preparation was superior, my play was superior, and I lost, so I don't see a reason to continue engaging in an activity where what is within my control is overwhelmingly outweighed by what is not.
best copypasta honestly
44:52 this is why Azumarill is my favorite pokemon always clutches up when i need it to
Kingambit held on so you wouldnt feel sad!
Keep up the good work Wolfey
What can I say, it’s not a skill issue, it’s a world champ difference.
Kingambit living at 1% was not only luck but also plot armor
Crazy ass video. The ending really got me, I almost left the video out of frustration but then I skipped 10 seconds ahead and I got a glimpse of the kingambit 1hp hahahaha.
Love your videos man
I love how varied this metagame feels
This would never have happened if not for the end of National Dex
also I love the play between the primary and secondary types of the starter mons. Fire beats Grass, but Meowscarada can also threaten Skeledirge because Dark beats Ghost, and it works throughout the trio
TRUE, ive actually been pro end of nat dex since i first heard the news. I mean, i was a little madge at first-but when i really considered it - i was like "you mean a system that means they have to continually animate *more and more* pokemon and make the metagame have more and more top tier mons that will dominate?"
Y’all know that the first series of VGC for a gen is usually regional dex anyway? Having all Pokémon in the game would not affect this series’ meta, the one that Wolfey played in here
Also there’s legit no excuse to not have all mons in cuz they copy paste the models and idle/attack animations of every old Pokémon since Gen 6. IF they actually held true to the current mons not cut having stellar animations and personality in battle I would be fine with the dex cut, but it’s the same shit we’ve been seeing since Gen 6. They’re just lazy and rushed for time, Pokemon Colosseum and Battle Revolution were so much more lively and fun and those games came out on the game cube and wii (and had more mons featured vs SwSh & S/V)
And also, as a smogon player who plays with balanced tiers based on usage, a lot of my fave mons got fucked over with dex cut in both gens. Slaking and Breloom not available gen 8, and no Nidoking, araquanid, or Latios right now without Pokémon Home sucks big time. I miss playing with my bois
Rest In Peace Gliscor and Infernape, you were too real for this fuckin corporate dex cut shakedown world we live in 😔
@@Junya01 LMAO WHAT????? No they have not copied/pasted all the models??? Have you never seen Scarlet and Violet?? They also had new models in Arceus AND Sword/Shield - you don't have eyes lmfao.
@@darkestlight660 bruh, there's a miriad of videos proving it's the exact same model. Scarlet and Violet just changed the textures a bit and added a low-poly version of the model for when you are too far away (which still shows in combat if your pokemon is flying cause the camera angle detects the enemy is too far away and all of a sudden you're playing Pokemon Rumble)
I watched it live and it was the greatest experience ever. WCD BABY
12:34 He trolls us with incorrect pronunciation even in his sponsored ad reads, that's the world champ difference right there
Thanks for all the great videos and analysis Wolfe. We appreciate all your hard work
You know he’s the world champ tho right?
dragargle 💀
Showing the last game in only two minutes so that we thought the video would end on the previous game was dirty... It's insane that the kingambit actually lived, that's the world champ diference
That trick room play was legendary omg
Wouldn't call the biggest regional a random tournament but you do you wolfey 😉
What is the chance of winning a completely random tournament undefeated? If you are Wolf Glick, 100%.
It's so interesting how 8/1000 sounds so much less likely than 1/125. Yet they are the same fraction.
15:20 when your luck is so outrageously bad that you start hovering your tax folder
Is nobody gonna talk about how he said keto? 💀
The whole point of dragalge's name is that it is a mix between dragon and algae. Bro is literally saying "dragargle"
He's the world champ he knows what he's talkin about
it's a running joke in the channel that wolfey misprounces mon names on purpose, calm down.
@@scott--1629 Dude, I'm literally not mad. I just wrote a silly little comment and you have to fly to this man's defense. Chill.
@@aabattery5 well from the way u literally had to explain dragalge's name, it rlly sounds like ur pissed
The amount of crits that happened to him was ridiculous. Probably just confirmation bias though

I saw the 1% on Kingambit but the edit made me doubt myself! Great video and a perfect song choice for the end!
excellent use of You Will Know Our Names
Loving these videos, Wolfey. Amazing job to you and your team!
Every time Wolfey says how close he is to a million subs it’s a little mind blowing - not because he doesn’t deserve it (he does) but because it feels so recently that we got Mr. Fish cosplay for hitting 300k (or 500k, my memory is bad). I know it wasn’t nearly as recent as it feels but it’s really cool to see the channel grow so much!
"I learned from my mistakes and Final Gambit the Rotom" LOL
the STORYTELLINGGGG omg i knew the kingambit survived the flare blitz BUT IT WAS STIL L SO HYPE
There are other poketubers but your storytelling movie style vids are so great to watch whenever you are bored
me- *reads title*
also me in the middle of the video- "oh man it looks like hes going to lose"
I love these type of videos both the perfect amount of detail and keeping it moving keep it up champ
Honestly the fact that this video is technically clickbait and still manages to be extremely compelling is wonderful. I was so ready to see wolfey use his worldchamp difference to sweep through the tournament but after all the hardship and bullshit rng he had to face, putting the entire tournament on the lime for the content and almost managing to win despite that and STILL uploading the video despite losing in the end really puts into perspective how little the rng really matters. Sure it may suck at times and lead to some uncompetitive outcomes, but in that final set when luck placed it all on that one final talonflame read, it really showed me that, win or lose, the rng is what truly makes Pokemon a memorable experience because it makes each battle its own puzzle in a way. What's the safest play in a certain situation, how do you minimize randomness, and when do you throw caution to the wind and throw your fate up to chance? It was heartbreaking to see all of Wolfe's work come crumbling down because of one wrong read letting the talonflame ko his Kingambit, but with how much fun it was just watching the ups and downs up until then, I wouldn't have had it any other way
Or at least that's what I would say if Wolfe lost but he never loses worldchamp difference babyyyy
Dude had me in the first have then king gambit living had me so hyped. What a video I’m literally inspired! 😂
Oh hell yeah, you’ve been doing so good this past year!
"Have you eaten today"
how dare you call me out for watching a video at 8AM before breakfast
Wolfey's rng is the real world champ diff his opponents need the edge 😂.
that 1 hp king gambit made me jump 😂
The use of You Will Know Our Names at the end there was perfect
