Medicham Is Crazier Than People Think.

Level 100 Medicham actually reaches a total of 480 after huge power, had a mistake in the intro!

I can't wait to see Mega Nippleknee again in Legends ZA.

Fuck yeah Medicham. I ended up having one in Sapphire that I caught in Victory Road that I used to beat all of the contests using its original moves. It's always been one of my favorites.

Did you also comment this on a Pokeaim video recently? Got some serious deja vu here

Hey Haydunn. Awesome video and longtime fan. When the Hippo was in, it was locked into Roar from the Encore, so it couldn't switch to Earthquake. So you were safe no matter what.

Haydun!! I played against you yesterday on a wifi battle!! I got bodied by you I’m so glad you didn’t post it 😂 I was too excited to focus, thank you for the game! Hope to battle you again.

Yeah, what's up with that?

[@maxstrike3022]

Both of Delibird's abilities do the same thing too.

[@marshmallow5672]

Main difference is pure power boosts the moves while huge power boots the attack stat itself

One thing on the commentary, the encore lasts 2 to 3 turns- he probably wanted to eq your muk but he couldn't! knock off was totally safe and you made the right play :D

I think it was more that they chose to stay in and roar rather than hard switch (whilst encored)

encore doesn't mean they can't switch. They could've switched as a prediction.

Ngl the Medicham on the second battle dying to a Thunder Punch after all the badass moments plus the Tera was hilarious to me lmao

Bro I remember watching your channel back in like 2016, so glad you popped up on my new account as a recommendation so I can start watching again. Love it’s still the same intro song as well, so nostalgic

[@azteceyes5613]

There is a lot of recent content, start binging

[@LeonardoDrakulic]

Fun fact : Medicham with skill swap is better wheezing for regigigas

[@DryToast_]

I feel like there was a missed opportunity to name medicham Knee-pples. No? I’ll see myself out

[@Kexrex]

AA-j was an unexpected but appreciated throwback

[@nerddwarf]

"It's baby 206 Atk stat becomes 412" That's not fully trained. Without a +Atk Nature, you can get to 219 or 438 after Pure Power (This is the exact same Atk stat as a +Atk Rayquaza or +Atk Groudon) With a +Atk Nature, you can get to 240 or 480 after Pure Power (This is higher than +Atk Rampardos, and 2 points below +Atk Kyurem-Black)

Which speaking of IV slider, whenever I go to the abilities or attacks screen, by the time I get to the slider, it’s Attack IVs are automatically set to 0. Does that every time in Showdown.

[@kylerkeys]

HAYDUNN I LOVE YOU EVERY EXTRA BATTLE YOU GIVE US MY HEART ONLY GROWS

[@nebulous9280]

Medicham is one of my all time favorites. It was on my very first Elite 4 + Champion win when I first played Pokemon Sapphire as a kid. I've been saying forever that it's extremely underrated. Power Trick is also a fun move to turn it into a defensive powerhouse. Not many stall applications, but it was always fun working with it against my friends who don't play competitively

[@deadlover5585]

I mainly use medicham to use the move skill swap with Regigigas, acupuncture helps too, this only works in doubles though

[@hoennfanboy]

This is my first time finding your channel & im binge watching while i should be sleeping, and im really happy i found this channel seeing a lot of my favorite pokemon i use across the games that i think are underrated asf. I watch a lot of competitive pokemon content and these vids are inspiring me to actually try wifi battles sometime and stop being nervous about it lol (plus i have a plethora of ev trained shinies bc i love shiny hunting and using them in raids xD)

[@piemanlad]

14:50 muk was never in danger the hippo was still encored so it was a guaranteed roar or switch no reads needed really just a free knock off

[@tonyluiscomedy]

Man I been watching you since those DS days so hearing you reminisce gave me that warm and fuzzy lol

[@Supa262]

I would totally still watch if you do additional videos on mon you previously covered! Just keep on battling!

[@evangel3344]

new haydun vid, finally something interesting to watch while on my porcelain throne.

you could have gone for another meteor beam against the slowking

[@ralphaustinfernandez9851]

I once used a Pure Power Medicham and Skill Swapped it onto a AV Slaking, then switched out Medicham (which resets Skill Swap) for a Heal Support Pokémon or an Intimidate one.

[@FNAF-RNG-Tycoon]

Medicham isn’t my favorite but seeing it be used like this for some reason.. brings me joy

[@whatthefox6283]

Always Nice to see your vids brother! Keep it up!

[@MidnightDragonLux]

Fun fact a misconception is abilities like pure power dont double the base stat it doubles the actual stat and same thing with evolite where it gives a 1.5x boost to the actual stat

Seeing you used shiny Medicham makes this video much better. Blue shinies are underrated 💙

[@Abominax7]

In doubles, I have medicham use Skill Swap on Golurk so the Golurk now has Pure Power. The Medicham receives No Guard from Golurk and knows High Jump Kick.

[@yuumijungle548]

i was like "only 412 attack? thats way worse than i remember"

[@Godsflan_]

I have a team with medicham, with skill swap. I use dragon dance with Gyarados or haxarous and they wreck everything in sight. It’s beautiful

[@matheuscervo892]

Coalossal was amazing here, tera was really a boost for this guy.

[@itzkevin98]

Can someone explain... Why is he able to use another move when he initially used Close Combat? I thought the choice items allow the use of only ONE move.

[@HORSECONSUMER]

and in natdex doubles you can skill swap pure power to regigigas then mega to gain It back

[@StrayTato]

Probably my favorite psychic type. When I played Ruby for the first time, I caught two of these mfers in the Victory Road, and they helped me get the W against Steven.

ive had medicham on my team for ever its a powerhouse no expects.

[@yn-central_anime]

When I saw him switch into Alolan executor and looked at the name, I didn't get a good look at the mon at first because of the poke ball animation and red the name Facepaint instead of Faceplant and no lie went to thinking "When did he add Mamoswine too the team!" 😂❤️😭

[@HerpDerpWalrus]

Great video! Are you the one who had the Medicham named Titleg or was that someone else? I forget if this is a homage or just a new name.

[@Toy-Bonnie.]

Let's just not talk about the things Medicham did in Go Battle League tho...

[@benjaminleo7011]

Medicham is op in game play with pure power punching glove, element punch moves+ drain punch. Or swap punching glove for assault vest

[@Xiaolin-Loonatic]

It baffles me on why Candice has this on her team in DP (not to mention the anime) when Froslass exists. Thank you, Platinum.

[@GrinKeeper]

Why do you run heatwave over roost or defog on zapdos? Specific counter to things like skarmory?

[@Lee-ex1bl]

It can skill swap with allies in doubles for some crazy combinations

[@ЮрийБогомолов-б8щ]

It works out the best way with Slaking or Regigigas

[@zontaferr]

Skill swap is also good in raids Groudon with a starting stat 876 attack carried me through the hardest Annihilape run

[@alexcothren5103]

Thanks for the video man!

[@Thorn99855]

I feel like Gamefreak needs to check their % stats. Or maybe we need to make a catalogue of success vs failures of different moves. Because sometimes it seems like moves that are supposed to be 90/10 or 70/30 or even 95/5 are instead set to 50/50. I hope that isn't true, but the results feel very suspect and I think a statistical study needs to be done where we keep track of how many hits out of 100 we land on these mons that are supposed to be fairly accurate.

[@Ozymandias1111]

Thank you

[@manuelcorteslozano8445]

I felt horrible for that Hippowdon

[@henrycastillo712]

Haydunn, your medicham had ice punch, was stab close combat had more damage than ice punch at that moment? Or medicham special wasn't high enough to guarantee the down?

[@henrycastillo712]

Between medicham vs dragonight match up

[@nerddwarf]

Ice Punch uses Atk, not Sp.Atk Before Diamond&Pearl (Gen 4) all Ice type moves were Special. Starting in Diamond&Pearl, Ice Punch, Ice Fang, Ice Shard, Icicle Spear, Ice Ball, and Avalanche all became Physical/use the atk and not Sp.Atk All types of moves did this.

[@nerddwarf]

Ice Punch would have been more damage. Close Combat = 120 × 1.5(STAB) × 0.5(Flying vs Fighting) = 90 Power Ice Punch = 75 × 4(Ice vs Flying+Dragon) = 300 Power Both use Atk and not Sp.Atk

[@LexSchilperoord]

Wasn't he Choice Scarfed into Close Combat?

[@DefinitelyNotAFerret]

Misses 90% accurate move, fails to get the 30% chance to burn, and dies to a critical hit 😂 wow

[@finnfiasco]

Abilities like Pure Power are weird. If they just gave it the high stat outright, they could give them a more interesting ability. Thats the point/tradeoff, I know, but it’s an interesting choice.
