Usually rocking a few beers while enjoying some gbl. QOTD: The zombie monkey is pretty well balanced. Been a while since we've had a mid season shakeup. After so many pre-release nerfs, it was cool to see they actually made it better.

Congrats on getting sponsors for your videos! Always cool seeing channels grow when they deserve it. QOTD: I cannot say for certain because honestly i have yet to face too many of them, I've only faced four (I'm about 2200). But i think its pretty healthy for the meta. Its really strong on its own but has no shortage of counters of various types (fairy, ghost, & flying are all pretty represented in the meta). On top of that this is way better than Medicham being the top fighter because Annihilape doesn't require any XL candies, so its much more accessible to newer players getting into GBL, and attracting new players is always healthy for a games longevity. So I'm pretty pro-Annihilape.

Hey Callum, I have been a quiet subscriber for a while now, but I wanna say it is great to see your channel growing. I also really appreciate your approach to GBL content, and the spice compilations are genuinely some of the most enjoyment I have gotten from this game and all the content relating to it. Keep on going dude!! Also I'm only over the puddle in Ireland 🇮🇪 QOTD; I loved Annihilape in Scarlet, it was one that I gunned for immediately as I'm a huge fan of Ghost types and I have always loved the Monkey evolution line. I am actually overjoyed (which is a word I never use) with it's performance in GBL. It is nowhere near as OP as Medi because if the lack of bulk, but I think it is about time we had more contenders for the GBL meta, I am so so so bored with Medi, Lanturn and.. fill in the blanks here, the meta has been so stale to me for so long, I barely even finish a single set these days because I'm so bored, but annihilape motivated me, and I think it is a great addition to the meta!

QOTD: I would say Annihilape is a great addition to the meta. Its not overpowered by any means, just has some great matchups and coverage. Plenty of meta picks that can take it out. It has lots of hard counters and is itself not really a hard counter to anything besides things just weak to counter, everything else still can have some play. Its almost like a small void that's been filled with the now lack of medichams. Think its one of the best new mons niantic has released to pogo in a while.

Surely you already know but, if you have a shadow Pokemon as your buddy, with the best buddy badge and give him a Poffin, your buff chances are highly increased (using Night Slash, Ominous Wind, etc). It might work with debuff moves (I have not tried it). Greetings!

A fine team, however the Nacli line defeats all of them. Also, against the Bastiodon team, wouldn’t it have been better to come in to the Wigglytuff with Sliggoo, preserving HP on Macargo for the Vic? Yes, Sliggoo would have gotten destroyed, but it may have chipped enough.
@CallumOnToast8 ай бұрын
But then I'd instantly lose switch advantage & have Gastrodon aligned to shadow Vic. I think the way I played (especially the second time) was the right thing to do, I literally just needed a single muddy water debuff in either game.

QoTD: he is... rated. Everone is team building against him or Poliwrath so the meta is very hostile to it. Still, he is nice, but not that overwhelming as some more RPS stuff or even old Medichan, mostly because this thing while hard to farm down, takes huge amounts of damage on charge moves, due to this low def high HP type of bulk, just like Guzzlord. If he faces something that can't 2 shot it and is forced to farm down, it's where it shines I think.

I don't know why niantic hasn't buffed moves like muddy water, twister, low sweep. Muddy water 50% debuff chance, twister 45 energy 45 damage guaranteed defence debuff, low sweep buffed damage and maybe a debuff.

@ky03tmoses188 ай бұрын
I wish the Goodra line had better moves tbh. Muddy water is indeed terrible. If it ran Aqua tail or surf instead it'd be mpre viable in probably all leagues. Idk if they can learn those in the main series or not, but it'd be nice.
@seribelz8 ай бұрын
gratz on the sponsorship. Really cool team, i hope we get hisui sliggoo and goodra soon! I already got a shiny goomy ready to evolve qotd: I think it's slightly overrated in ogl because its performance doesnt reflect its position on pvpoke but its still a decent, fun pick and good for the meta imo. I think poliwrath is better, so ape zombie is for me the second best fighter.
@andronmillerjr.91588 ай бұрын
I absolutely love the title 😂😂😂 Personally I think annihilape is very good. Having only 3500 cp at max isnt rlly good for master league, but its still kinda bulky with pretty good damage. In ultra and great league, some teams are built to counter it alone which means its very good.
