Is there ways to support the channel otherwise? I don't have the money to become a member but I would love to see you all keep doing what you're doing.
I can't believe I lived to see Articuno beat the mid allegations.
We're in the right timeline
Hey, no one ever said that.
They said it was bad.
The temperature change from the thumbnail image to Aaron is dangerous
The time of fire and lightning is over, the time of ice, has just begun.
Should've said ice and fire for the perfect pun.
Sheer Cold on a specs mon was the wildest part about the build to me and actually came in clutch a few times!
10/10 amazing thumbnail lmaoooo
I respect the specs over bright powder. Feels less degenerate then I saw sheer cold.
Also side note Aaron Zeng did a road to ranked with the team so his input on the team is off of first hand experience for those who didn't know.
it's different then ting-lu who just degenerately just spams it. Articuno uses it for walls that it otherwise can't beat like registeel. if often has better tools otherwise
So glad that the one match that Articuno's RNG shenanigans could've mattered, it didn't. Imagine if it won by getting a freeze or a Snow Cloak miss, there would be so many doubters against Articuno
Aaron ln his hottie era. Wolfey stays hungry even after his latest win. James taking that nap to get the energy to win his next tournament. Rosemary just doing good and thriving
Really appreciated Rosemary's observations about both Europeans' reluctance to splash jank into their teams - the centralization of their meta - and the interesting brings we saw regardless of that.
James's pop quiz catching everyone off guard also good. Has the Pon finally snuffed out the Moong?!
I agree that Horoark's true potential has yet to be unlocked. Cmon....
Hungry like the Wolfe
Wolf with the classic grimer lighting
All the benefits of ice type with enough defensive multipliers to stomach the defensive weaknesses
The era of Exeggutor will soon begin.
A-Ninetails is my favorite pokemon so I'm so happy to see this. Probably not going to continue but i like her in the limelight.
I hate Ninetales but I love Alolan Ninetales
As long as ice remains relevant, it will too. Nothing else sets up snow so well
Winter comes! *Game of Thrones Music hitting hard*
Like a week before this event I was working on a core that involved Speed Booster Energy Iron Treads Volt Switching into Weakness Policy Articuno and switching in Alolan Ninetales for snow. +2 Sp.Atk and +50% def from snow seems like a good trade off for 16-19% HP.
After Articuno won an event I went and put this team into action ingame but the downfall was waiting a turn to get Aurora Veil up and Ninetales being an easy target for that turn. Ended up being a hat on hat situation
That's why you get support for checking Ninetails counters. But remember Ninetails just by the fact that it brings snow it already receives the snow defend boost so that is why it's really good
I mean idk how nobody seen this coming when 5 out of 6 mons are all weak to ice typing and a lot of ice types have natural bulk allowing them to at least tank most 1hko moves for most mons in the format okidogi runs ice punch and bulk up and can sweep up most teams being as how the most used special attackers are flutter raging bolt Glimmora and the rest are physical attackers which is why Magmar has such high value at the moment but sun teams will be the meta for next regulation
Love those videos, I feel lucky to be able to hear in-depth takes on the meta by pros.
James's analysis is quite accurate since I also felt in my experience Raging Bolt with Electroweb is something really strong
love ARTICUNO vids... he's one of themost popular and loved OG mons since gen1
It's about time articuno had some time to shine.
Youre eyebrows look great Aaron 👍
Regulation F have been WILD so far
Going to go watch Torkoal sweeps to feel better about my tortoise getting slandered. 😂
Great video and insights as always!
Love the content! I think some subtle bgm would make it even better
Aaron’s background piplup is awesome
HES BEING HELD HOSTAGE
Where’s weird story time with James?
Got my scuffed intro with the gang tho so that’s a good start.
Fairy sand could be an interesting place to take the meta with sand having a good matchup against things like raging bolt, fire ogerpon and flutter, I think a team like exca, tyranitar, flutter, volcarona, amoongus, hisuian arcane could be a killer combo with either offensive or hybrid flutter or even go crazy with air balloon flutter
I believe in Ice supremacy honestly. Team plays so well and gets back up from really good mons so thats why.
This was a chill video
Sudowoodo clutch full defense fissure
Sorry it's called giga impact now 😂...and it prolly hits flying types too cause it norm
MY WISH WAS FULFILLED! BEASTCOAST CAMPEAO DE MUNDOOOOO
best Counter to that Team is some sort of Tailwind Talonflame with Gale Wings, Tailwind, Taunt, Will-O-Wisp and a Metagross epuipped with Heavy Slam, Psychic Fangs to get rid of that annoying Veil. Add Overquil to that core, Add Specs Primarene and U have a very solid Team. And because u are a champion, u add Umbreon to it.
A Talon, metagross, overqwil, primarina team would get absolutely obliterated by any other team in the current meta though. Sure, you can stop articuno, but what about the other 20 or so teams that aren’t running it
this just sounds like a favorites team ngl
Volcarona????😂😂😂
I really think calling mons"bad" is just subjective
(Except for the Elemental Monkeys)
Idk man, luvdisc feels pretty objectively bad
@@char1194 oh yeah, I forget about it
@@kushgodreturns5873
It has its gimmicks. Swift swim entrainment next to a Kyogre to give it Swift Swim and reset drizzle to beat Prankster Sunny Day.
@@Endershock1678Never cook again
@@jellybunz8357 I didn't build this... my friend did, and that is why he is banned ffrom my kitchen
ARTICUNO GANG RISE UP
Mark Cotter mention 🇮🇪
How do I become a Pokemon Regional commentator like you guys?
We are getting so many effing types and species that were losing standards
.....hate to say it
Those eyebrows though
I really dont wanna be an ass
Last Gen Moltres (G) proved to be the best of the 3 birds. Now Articuno is proving its the best of the 3 in Gen 9.
Zapdos had that for the longest time. Thundy with wildbolt and thunder giraffe might be the end of it though
I don't understand why Articuno win seems so unpredicted lol 😂 it
seems like a standout choice among all of the stupid buffs nerfs and edits...flying/ice seems godlike to me ...but I'm also oldschool.... I fully back normals being completely susceptible to ghost without effect ....just saying
The new pokemeta hurts my brain
Im not trying to be that guy and im sure this been said a million times already but we need new age tourneys with first gen type matchups with special allegations that equalize types created after gen 1 and categorize them into type matchups that suit the pokemon
Aaron, as heterosexually as I can say this, you are getting so damn hot lately bro, glow up!
Didn’t Wolfey just do this video on his channel? 😂😂😂
Yeah but this time he's hungry, so it's different.
@@char1194 😂😂😂
I just feel like they assembled this channel to give an in depth insight into the current meta…. But wolfeys channel already covers that in far more detail…. Plus his production is far superior, so what’s the point? This will die soon.
These videos are podcast-styled recaps of various events with the beastcoast roster! Also, Wolfe is hungry
@@beastcoastpokemon fair enough. I enjoy them anyways - but Wolfey has the world champ difference 😂😂😂
i think incineroar is so overrated
It’s obviously not bad if it won a tournament. Everything “good” is subjective; time and place.
