  • In this video, I try out one of the best teams in the format right now. This team was built by two time Japanese National Champion and 2019 Worlds Finalist Hirofumi Kimura, who finished in the Top 32 at the 2023 World Championships with it. It features unique takes on standard Pokemon such as super defensive Calm Mind Flutter Mane, Choice Band Normal Tera Hisuan Arcanine, and Life Orb Poison Tera Chien Pao!

      He’s the only reason I got into it. I used to think “amoongus meta? Murkrow meta? Why?” And then I got to see what they brought to the table through these games with different Pokémon and it’s been loads of fun watching competitive doubles ever since.

    The thing I like about how these top players build teams is that often you see them have one of the most basics when it comes to their picks (for example here, we have the standard grass/fire/water core which is very basic, and then a strong PA and a strong SpA from the meta, and a support mon) yet, just a slight tweak in the stats and moveset it just turns into this very special team where it makes you go :” OHHHHH YOU’re USING IT LIKE THAT!” It always just amazes me when you realize how simple AND detailed the way they make their teams. Mad respect to all them pro players. They inspire me to try out more and increase my love for this game I’ve been playing for the past 20 years.

    QOTD: I am having a lot fun with the meta right now with getting to try out and learn all the world's teams.
    I actually got to face you in one of your practice matches with this team where I was trying out Joe's team from last video. As you mentioned the Chien-Pao got a first turn OHKO on Thundurus that I was not expecting. I tried my best to come back but just fell too far behind. Guess that should teach me to go against Cybertron with a team he just covered. This leaves me 1-1 against you on later in your practice matches. Here's hoping the tiebreaker can eventually happen and get in a video. Please keep up the good work! Always great to see my favorite battler/commentator in action!

    I think Reg D has been much faster-paced and thus more enjoyable for me than the last format. Unfortunately, the meta has definitely coalesced really tightly. I hope that whatever the next rule set brings in terms of Pokémon and new moves will have more to offer against threats like Urshifu and Flutter Mane.

  • @AlphaAGENT144
    @AlphaAGENT144 Před 9 měsíci +1

    QOTD: Reg D is generally a really fun meta! My main problem is how dominant Urshifu and the Genies are, though that's partially because I'm biased and very sick of "le genies of healthy meta" being dominant every single Gen for 2+ seasons.
    Urshifu is just ridiculous without dynamax around to use max guard to block Unseen Fist. I think generally everyone knew that when playing Gen 8 but it wasn't really properly identified as being ridiculous until Gen 9 Reg D.

    QOTD: I’m really enjoying the current meta. It feels diverse enough to be able to make a lot of interesting Pokémon work, like the Wo-Chien and Bruxish teams you’ve displayed on the channel. There’s a lot of different ways to play the game right now and still succeed. I’m curious about what the restricted format will be like. Terastallization seems like it’s going to create a really high-powered meta and I expect Groudon/Kyogre will dominate once again

  • @orkiporki8895
    @orkiporki8895 Před 9 měsíci +1

    QOTD: Reg D might be my single most hated format so far, and this includes singles metagames I've played in the past. Urshifu is the most unhealthy Pokemon I've ever seen, it ignores way too many key aspects of this game. The volatility of the metagame also allows previously manageable threats like FlutterYu and PaoNite to become even more annoying. It's just a race to see who offenses and cheeses more than the other person which is truly sad because there are so many colorful Pokemon that were introduced with Home. BO3 OTS might be fine, but BO1 CTS is SOO bad.
    I always say, if Gastrodon is good in a metagame, that metagame has issues.

    QOTD - I think in OTS and bo3 the format is reasonable. Some games are a fun puzzle to solve, some a player is just getting rolled by a particular aspect
    CTS it’s a bad format. The power level being so high incentivises playing a proactive team and racing since getting a call wrong on what item, Tera etc puts you in a hole where you’re probably not coming back.

That aspect is worrisome to me but i don't think VCG at all is at jeopardy.

    I'm glad that people are experimenting with new stuff on Chien-Pao, always having sash is so boring. Effective, sure. But it just makes sure that you can't use sash on something that might also want to use it instead, to diversify the teams a little. Because, to answer the QOTD, it is a little tiring to see pretty much the same core of 4 to 5 pokemon with 1 slot that can be flex. I still watch, I still enjoy but I do wish for some more pokemon diversity. But that's always going to be the issue when you don't have a true restricted format that would limit the amount of legendaries on a team.

But literally every version of Arcanine I've run into has been the intimidate set, which makes me actually pretty happy.
