Drifblim's RARE ABILITY No One Uses

[@MaximilianoSanchez-i5q]

When I was 8 I used to wake up on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons. Now I’m 25 and I wake up Saturday mornings to watch Hayden Pokémon battles

[@jabarimcleod9768]

That makes two of us. For what it’s worth, I hope you’re doing well.

[@MyNameIsQuinn]

Sameeee

[@IAmGalaxian-bi6co]

improvement tbh

when i was 10 i used to wake up n watch haydunn emerald randomizer nuzlocke with dickpinch now im 27 watching these fun little battles

[@zerjiozerjio]

My best friend recently died by suicide - and Drifblim was one of his all-time favorite Pokémon. It now warms my heart anytime someone remembers this friendly, oddball ghost. I have a lot of affection for it, so thanks for putting this oft forgotten good boy to use in battle and bringing back fond memories.

[@Mynameishassan0]

I love Drifloon and Drifblim

[@wentoneisendon6502]

Sorry to hear bro

[@drifloonsupremacyassociation]

We mourn the passing of one of the beloved members if our association.

[@Thorcoal]

Sorry to hear. Suicide is the worst thing in the world for us who are close. My condolences brother

[@jacka602]

I hope you're been coping okay these past weeks, brother man

[@drumbarpuncture]

"I'm feelin' like these Tusks aren't even that Great." GET 'em, Haydunn!

[@aikawamood]

I did a fun set once for doubles. Flare boost weakness policy Drifblim with the second mon being a timid 0 attack IV Weavile that used flame orb fling on it

[@trxxblx-wxs-hxrx]

That’s a great tech

[@IronDino]

The Driftblim vs Fluttermane showdown was worth the price of admission.

[@coolcloudzx]

The concept of an hot air balloon is really smart

[@TaLeng2023]

It's evo/mega should be an airship.

[@twobladedswordsandmauls2120]

Mega Drifblim. Ability becomes Flare Boost (it's not like you'd want unburden or Aftermath anyway even if you are forced to rely on your opponent to burn you in single battles). Looks like a blimp. Loses 40 attack, gains +30 Defense, +20 Special Defense, +50 speed, and +40 Special attack. Final stats: 150 HP 40 Attack 74 Defense 130 Special Attack 74 Special Defense 130 Speed 598 Base Stat total

[@seronimo__7735]

Not a fan of Flare Boost on a mega.

[@clownworld3382]

3:08 - Great, now none of us can heal HP ! - THAT'S MY ITEM ! - No krap that's why i'm frickin stealin it ! - I'm calling Agent Jenny.

[@dylan5965]

Using Gardevoir's Trace to intimidate the Incineroar was a super smart play dude!

[@ladonmccabe]

Finally! Someone understands the greatness that is Flareboost Drifblim! Nice set, strength sap really brings the set to a whole new level

[@gammagong9435]

Only-Phan is brilliant, Sir

[@limemaster6952]

Thanks!

[@Haydunn]

Yooo thanks so much!

[@zonaldzuck1859]

“Ariados is the absolute goat” has never been said before and will never be said again

[@Cusastacks]

The art for your video thumbnails are amazing, and I’m here for it

[@limemaster6952]

I love drifblim and the plays you did in the video. If you can use dragalge in the next video, it has so my good moves, good abilities and decent stats.

[@Haydunn]

I gotchu bro

[@CrystallineCrazy]

That OnlyPhans joke was prime, i love those puns you always have in your pocket i swear

[@KingStr0ng]

DeadZepppelin. 💀

[@solgaleoevans7864]

Yikes

[@MarkWhiteartist]

I was so confused why people were burning their driftblim lol

[@MythX_StoryTeller]

I like Flare Boost Drifblim! Ive used it before w a Stockpile/ Spit Up combo! That BP on a +3 Spit Up, with the boost from Flare Boost, is insane! That last match up w Drifblim was insane! Way to win!

[@jabohonu]

Good vídeo as always, you my favourite YT poke player and i watch it in 3 languages 🔥

[@nightmare348]

Dude I forgot Drifblim even carried Flare Boost. IIRC, it essentially works like Guts, but for Sp. Attack, and only burns activate it. Also, for some reason, only Drifloon and Drifblim get it.

[@lyonformortiis2211]

It’s not really “for some reason”, it’s cause Drifblim is a hot air balloon

[@oodlesofnoodles23]

What do you mean IIRC, haydunn literally says this exact thing in the first minute of the video lmao

[@BLAZING_INFERNO_007]

​@@oodlesofnoodles23If I remember correctly, if I recall correctly

[@PrinceOfKoopas]

@@BLAZING_INFERNO_007 But it's not a matter of remembering some distant memory... because Haydunn opens the video explaining what Flare Boost is.

[@pudgerfladgey]

Flare boost was a cool unique ability for Drifblim because it fits the hot air balloon aesthetic. But I’m surprised they haven’t given the ability to more pokemon down the line

[@philippefutureboy7348]

Impressive plays! Them strategies are working out for ya!

[@antoineroger742]

Wow! Yesterday, I started to look for a way to use my shiny drifblim in SV, and here we go! Thanks!

[@MyNameIsQuinn]

MAN. I love these close matches

[@longquach2784]

I really love Drifblim! When I see your thumbnail, I just can't wait to see how lil' baloony works. Such a great video, you surely made my day :D

[@JmikesWorld]

Drifblim still terrorizing the meta 👌🏽

[@zinzolin14]

Drifblim has been my favorite since its debut. I'll always love my balloon boy, even if he's not the strongest.

[@RealismCheck]

Drifblim has such a sick design too, I wish it was more of a special attacker though. I would always use drifblim offensive-wise because it was my favorite lol

[@victorvonreno]

Back in the day I did a doubles team that was skill swap flare boost expanding force indeedee + drifblim. Not the most practical but it was fun!

[@UltimateBlobrex]

Cool to see this ability in use, I remember back is SwSh, my first VGC team had Weakness Policy Drifblim and I had Unburden Hawlucha use Fling with Flame Orb to burn and activate WP while Dynamaxing for a Max Airstream(Only issue was Gust was the best I had on the special Flying move count XD)

[@viosworld]

its not the focus of the vid but scarf gardevoir is so fun im glad to see it get some use on one of your teams

[@anishprasad137]

Please make a video of battle using status activation ability team using abilities like guts,toxic boost,poison heal,flare boost,marvel scale,quick feet etc.

[@flavafee]

close and fun games! drifblim is one of my faves, so nice to see them get some attention :) thanks for sharing

[@UnchainedPandoran]

Drifblim be stealing kids and getting wins.

[@Submissive-Soul]

this is the first video i saw from this channel u did great ive played pokemon a very long time and can see a good competitive Battle the team was very good the drifblim has a decent bit of coverage you could use to

[@nasrizaim8637]

I just realised that drifblim has a mouth on the tape thing

[@benji7449]

I have a question,if a burned pokemon goes tera fire does it remove the burn?

[@Dirty_Bear22]

Keeps the burn.

[@bagelly6957]

Drifloon is my favorite Pokemon!! So happy to see a fun strategy for Driftblim :D

[@levilenkens224]

20:58 it's a blimp A blimp which goes up via fire So yes fire makes it stronger

[@chandler5014]

thumbnail went unreasonably hard

[@ryleeevans6211]

Only time i ran driftblim was in doubles tera normal boom turn 1. If flare boost also worked with atk stat that would be crazy

[@Drby_]

I lOVE blim. all the ghosts are great honestly. Cool typing, cool mon

[@marshmallow5672]

7:04 I would have used strength sap but still good video! Props to the creative names

[@MrPuckpunk]

He could also strength sap the Deoxy

[@thumbsup1214]

Strength sapping the deoxis wouldn't be a bad idea but the reason he didn't strength sap the corvanight was to try and stop it from using defog

[@marshmallow5672]

​@@thumbsup1214It was using breve bird anyways, I see what you mean but if he somehow saved the sticky web setter he could have used it again. Just different play style is all is saying

[@Lioner9]

Flare Boost is such a cool ability. Its a shame its not very popular

[@ballincruzer511]

That, Zeppelin’s on FIIYYYAAA!!! 🔥

[@alexlafferty4288]

The casual riff raff reference had me cracking up lol

[@gillriet773]

Ive been running Trick/Flame Orb on Chandelure to get more reliable burns and steal items, I happen to have a shiny yello Drifblim from Legends Arceus... I guess I know the next mon I'll be training up! 😅

[@chuchuchuchia]

Man imagine if there was an item that let your Pokemon run two abilities. Unburden + Flare Boost Drifblim 😱

[@sayzar9474]

I looooove Drifblim. Favorite gen 4 Pokémon

[@MelodyLumina]

ngl haydunn i keep on stealing ur strats cuz they all look so fun to use, like i have ur exact yanmega set as a permanent part of my team

[@truecross4090]

These pokemon fighting over Leftovers and knocking it in the floor like like me and my brothers coming in from church and fighting to get to the pizza in the fridge first.

DeadZepplin, comin in with the top tier names 😂👌

[@Chris-re3lv]

Nice, I will take one of these with the Flare Boost ability, and call it Hindenburg.

[@LowQualityCarbink]

Flare boost go brrr

Dead Zepplin my fave cross reference of the year.

Since the porn-bots aren’t doing it anymore- I just wanna say your videos show your beautiful soul, and are a constant source of inspiration. But I actually mean it lol.

Will you do a Sand Veil Cacturne Sweep please !

[@TaLeng2023]

Drifblim stole our hearts and children.

[@BASEJOCK11]

If you gave fire tera, does Driftblim still take damage from the flame orb burn?

[@trash44gzgigasmashkaza50]

In my sun version i hade a shiny with flare boost but it hade terible nature...

[@Necromancer4267]

YES. FINALLY.

[@Necromancer4267]

Flare Boost lighting you on fire is thematic for Drifblim being a blimp or hot-air balloon! The balloons that are powered by fire!

[@travis3229]

been waiting awhile for you to use this.

[@ArtieatsRamen]

Wow I love Driflblim! Its so underrated.

[@Afrominican1]

"We may be small but we're thicc"

[@NEONBEAR007]

What would be the best place to put IV's for this build?

[@Haydunn]

IVs..? There’s not really any reason to not use all maxed ivs. The set builds with EVs are in the pokepaste in description though

[@InsertFunnyThingHere]

​@@HaydunnI mean maybe like minimum IVs in physical attack because confusion and foul play and like

[@cadenrcook]

ah yes the nightly hayden video

[@BreakTheIce222]

I wonder if 1st opponent would win if they Tera-Grassed Iron Moth.

[@Eclipse_101]

Drifblim is not “on fire” with the burn, per se. It’s a blimp and the fire fuels it.

Hopefully that Dead Zeppelin is full of helium and not hydrogen... otherwise lighting itself on fire might be repeating history...

[@realsenorbulldoza]

wait... does it get flare boost cuz it's a zeppelin? And like the hindenburg it caught fire? :o

[@milkmilk1489]

hot air balloons use fire to fly ("hot air" balloon)
