What countering Incineroar does to a mf:

[@Dr_Donald_Duck]

Was looking for this. The video could've been a 4 seconds: "Because it counters Incineroar" and everybody would've been: "Makes sense, have a nice day."

[@SarcasticBeingYes]

Not only that, basc most legendaries except Koraidon and some others like Groudon.

[@usernametaken017]

wide guard bulky incineroar counter pseudoimmune to intimidate

[@diegovelosa8519]

fr lolll

[@chriskoloski32]

The day they add a pokemon ability that does intimidate but for special attack is gonna make comp go crazy

[@TheWungus]

Imagine going back in time and telling a gen 8 vgc player that zamazenta becomes one of the best legendaries in the format and zacian becomes one of the worst Edit: I know zacian is far from the worst, I just over exaggerated it to make the joke work better

[@towndarling1618]

Zacian isn’t bad at all, but in a format where you only have one restricted mon it’s not worth the slot

[@GravityIsFalling]

I mean if you explained to them everything that happened (the nerfs + meta shifts + body press) They probably wouldn’t be surprised

[@bungyss]

Zacian is far from the worst, it's actually still better than average if you think about how it's better than every single restricted legendary from Gens 1, 2, 4, 5 and 7. That's everything spanning 23 years from 1996-2019 except for the two eternally viable weather setters from Gen 3.

[@videogamahagain]

​@@GravityIsFalling well yeah after you explain exactly why everything is the way it is it makes more sence but before that they would probably be a bit flabberghasted

[@chinchillin242]

[@aname4390]

That's the thing, it wasn't nerfed, it was buffed with body press access.

[@lucasleong8529]

@@aname4390it did get nerfed due to the once per switch in ability, just that the buffs outweighed that

[@RFDN0]

​@aname4390 It was nerfed. It lost BST, and its ability was changed to only work once. The thing is that body press literally is worth significantly more for Zamezenta than everything it lost.

[@umwhoalol]

Lol body press is just what gives it a real way to deal damage, its ok but not great, other mons have better offense because of tera nuking, it's just the meta around it. Wide guard is on absolutely no legal mons that are good, besides it- people are literally running mienshao and pelliper for just access to that. And bulk with the ability to 1 shot fairy, dark, and normals running around. The meta demands the mon right now with flutter mane and calys causing that.

[@capricous7196]

[@waitingfortheequinnox]

Even now the two aren’t equals

[@jamesfeng24]

Yeah, zacian is genuinely trash now. Funny that even if zamazenta only got nerfed and zacian never did, it still would see more success in reg g tbh. Body press is just THAT huge of an upgrade for Zam

[@Elite4koga]

[@SochimaOkwara]

In terms of design or viability?​@@jacksonbranby

[@panchosaavedra5777]

The "yes, yes it is" after questioning it's viability had me cracking up because it was so non-chalant

[@yeahright3901]

It was a corny question anyways especially after talking about how it’s literally the best legendary rn and why

[@peterstorm8089]

The fact Zamazenta is still affected by Intimidate just it doesn't effect its primary method of attack makes me imagine it as this terrified Scooby/Courage type dog accidentally crushing the scary cat man in its panic.

[@Konyyaan]

Ruh roh Raggy I crushed the cat

[@sekaihunter9378]

What's funny is because of its shield mane Zamazenta looks a lot more intimidating/lion-like than the scary fire cat man.

[@jmfordaliza3139]

All it took was put Body Press on this mon 😭

[@CalebDeez]

Yep 👍

[@RFDN0]

A lot of defensive mons gained some form of viability solely because of body press.

[@Darchias]

Frankly it was criminal he didn't have it to begin with.

[@hussainalaiwi9270]

All it took was giving the defense fighting type a fighting type move that uses defense and was introduced in the same generation

[@ferringsylveon219]

Yes. XD

[@ktvx.94]

It's such a shame that we didn't get to see gen 8 with Body Press Zamazenta. Imagine both doggos at full power and evenly matched.

[@justcallmeharrison377]

Especially considering gen 8 INTRODUCED Body Press. Honestly a laughable oversight not giving it to the defensive fighting box legendary

[@TheRatBehindTheSlaughter]

And worst of all, why would behemoth bash not use defense too? It fits both lorewise and gameplay wise since body press exist

[@squiddler7731]

[@danielhale1]

It was always weird that Zams didn't get Body Press from the get-go. Did they test it and think it was overpowered? Compared to Zacian, of all things? Or did it genuinely slip their minds all this time? Either way, really happy to see my doggo from Shield having a good time!

[@user-ni2bo3mu5p]

Balance, please this company made Mega Rayquazza and in the At generation made Zacian. They likely just forgot or didn’t feel like it

[@tetzy5172]

Considering it is the shield pokemon, it is weird its signature move doesn't use defense stat to damage Behemoth Bash feels like it should have been the upgrade, legendary form of Body Press

[@BobardeZanzibar]

​@user-ni2bo3mu5p they didn't forget it. They just have a different design philosophy than what most of us would like.

[@dragonslair951167]

@@user-ni2bo3mu5p It's worth noting that Game Freak almost exclusively balances with doubles/VGC in mind, and Mega Rayquaza was powerful but not overwhelming in doubles.

[@nategwright]

It’s amazing how Intimidate’s ubiquitousness in competitive was part of why Zacian was _so_ good in Gen 8 and overshadow Zamazenta because its ability basically made it immune to Intimidate, but now Intimidate makes Zacian a liability and lets Zamazenta shine.

"Zacian is too weak" is the one sentence I never thought I would hear. Glad to see Shield doggo thriving. I'm 100% confident Zamazenta (as well as some other supportive restricteds like Lunala) will skyrocket in usage once 2x restricteds will happen. Having that insane support movepool while also having a nuke at same time is huge.

[@rockowlgamer631]

The sad thing is Zamazenta could've gotten Body Press in gen 8 easily since it makes so much sense. Now I'm not surprised that it's better now.

[@jackferring6790]

It genuinely feel wrong that Zamazenta and Body Press both were introduced in the same generation but Zamazenta didnt get access to it (Also Wooloo and Dubwool don't learn Rollout dispite rolling like a ball being theirmost Iconic Trait) *edit: I am embarrassed I wrote the wrong Pokémon

Physical attackers have been dominant and a mon reducing pokemon's defenses passively really aids them.

[@uribevaldezargenis8862]

Sword of ruin is basically the intimidate for defense, that plus clear amulet being a counter to intimidate makes psychical attacters easier to use

[@monseigneurpatate1928]

Wait... Does Sword of Ruin really help Zamazenta? For Heavy Slam, yeah, sure, but does it help with Body Press since "The power of the Pokémon's ruinous sword lowers the Defense stats of **all** Pokémon except itself" Or is it a lie and SoR is only calculated when recieving damage?

[@mrboost4186]

Choice Band boosts Body Press but Eviolite doesn't, so it's the same thing going on here

[@AztecCroc]

Body Press only considers the user's raw Defense stat and stat stages, everything else comes from attack boosts. Sword of Ruin has no effect on Body Press, Tablets of Ruin does.

It’s definitely worse than SwSh Zacian, but it does at least come close

[@aninass]

Naah, it doesn't even come close. Zacian went from 10 to 4. Zamazenta went from 1 to 7. If they wanted Zama to be a 10 they should have let Behemoth Bash scale off of Defense.

[@waitingfortheequinnox]

@@aninassTo be honest, that decision (+Recover for both the doggos) is something I want to advocate for but know they’d never do so esp. with how meteoric Zamazenta’s rise was with just Body Press

[@aninass]

@@waitingfortheequinnox again, Zamazenta's rise was not meteoric at all. Most people would still rather use a special restricted like Kyogre or Calyrex-S to mitigate the intimidate problem and some other picks that do Zamazenta's job. Zamazenta is also not creating consistent results as opposed to its competitors. The opportunity cost of not being a better restricted is also there. And Zamazenta is also not strong enough to win you a tournament if you are not running Iron Defense / Body Press set, which is predictable. The only reason Zama got this high because this is a single restricted format, which was totally unexpected and most people would rather take the safe way rather than the risky ones. Tldr; Zamazenta's rise (if you can even call it that) is nowhere close to meteoric, and most people still think that Zamazenta is not a tournament winning restricted.

[@__august__]

man i can't wait for your gen 9 retrospective

[@Y0G0FU]

Zamazenta being a fighting type is a blessing this generation because the Dark Type has been incredibly dominant this Gen. So many strong Dark Types are meta viable, Dark Type attacks are very widespread (especially Knock Off). And Zacian was hit much more with the Statnerf from Gen 8 to 9 then Zamazenta was. I wouldnt say Zacian is too weak. Its still absurdly powerful. The meta simply doesnt favour it (mainly thanks to incineroar being such a broken Pokemon.. if it was Arcanine Zacian would shine much more because it didnt have to fear a Parting shot on its swords dance turn).

[@TreeForceGaming]

I feel like you are spinning the narrative here a bit. Both Zacien and Zamazenta got the same nerfs Zaciens stat nerfs were a bit harder, but they both got them. He got one move, a singular move. A held item was added that changed the landscape of the meta. Because it allowed every pokemon the chance to get around intimidate. Which Zacien cannot use and Zama does not need.

[@duckyjellomana4316]

Zam benefit literally nothing from new item, it just that Zacian can’t use clear amulet while Zam doesn’t care about attack drop to begin with. Both Zacian and Zam got the same nerf as well.

I really enjoy Chien-Pao in Reg G. Ice Spinner is phenomenal for terrain teams, and sword of ruin enhances many Pokémon. I specially like a core of Speed Boosting Flutter Mane, Sash Pao, AV Entei and Scarf Koraidon. Flutter mane supports with spread damage and Icy Wind speed control, Pao has priority, eliminates terrain, and makes Koraidon and Entei stronger, Entei with AV can be rather specially bulky, being very helpful vs Miraidon, Caly-S and Terapagos, while having the best priority in ESpeed, and also having the busted Sacred Fire boosted by Koraidon’s Sun. Finally, Koraidon can use Scarf to outrun most of the meta, is extremely powerful, has U-Turn to pivot around, and provides the sun to make Entei stronger, and Flutter Mane faster.

[@splish_2]

I love both zacian and zamazenta, zacian by far my favorite and one of the coolest legendaries. I'm glad zamazenta getting love, would be cool to see both have a worlds title

[@redwings13400]

Wouldn't swords of ruin have some negative synnergy too by loweing zamazenta's defense stat and making body press weaker? I guess chien-pao supports it so well otherwise that this is fine, but I'm curious how that effects the calcs.
