its about the idea that loss, win, win, loss, win is better than loss, loss, win, win, win. Because the second loss in a row can really affect you on a mental level. Most importantly, it might make it less likely to actually GET those three consecutive wins (I ignore the fact that your standing is worse in that situation - I am thinking about the quality of play)

There are now like 20 comments about 4:30, so to answer: Gyarados isn't protected by psychic terrain as it is a flying type. Psychic terrain doesn't disable priority, it prevents grounded pokemon from being targeted by priority. Levitate, flying types, and air balloon will all prevent psychic terrain from protecting you. Since he'd already tera'd his ceruledge, he could not tera out of his flying type to protect Gyarados. Edit: actually gyara is tera flying, so it was always vulnerable.

@@ramanahveljeyaseelan5406 try to think terrains like this: its the pokemon that are affected by terrain, not the moves. If you stand on terrain (psychic terrain in this case) then you gain the terrains benefit (immunity to priority moves in this case). Flying type ISN'T STANDING in the terrain. Thus flying type doesn't get the protection a grounded pokemon STANDING IN THE TERRAIN would get. Its like... imagine the terrain be a shield. If a pokemon is behind the shield (stands in terrain) they are protected by moves the shield is supposed to cover. But if you hover over the shield then ofc it doesn't protect you.

Ironically, espathra is considered an UBER, (too strong for OU, the standard competitive format) in singles. So it can only be played with pokemon like flutter mane, iron bundle, koraidon, and miraidon

I dont know why gyarados had such a low usage rate. Ive been using it since release and the variety of sets it can run and typing has made it a beast in my opinion
@JubioHDX
@JubioHDX Жыл бұрын
I think its just a case of where gyarados can do alot of things really well theres just alot more pokemon nowadays that can fill a specific role PERFECTLY, so the more generalist options become less popular even if theyre still quite strong. There are tankier tanks and faster/stronger sweepers, so in cases where you have to keep the same pokemon and movesets why run gyarados set when its versatility gets removed and you can just run something else that already is hyper specialized for the role you wanted the gyarados to fill? Not saying i think gyarados is a bad pick or anything just trying to explain the thought process on why people in official tournament settings *tend* to be more inclined to use a pokemon thats seen as a S rank for its role vs one thats B or A rank in many roles Though as wolfey demonstrates often and as youve seen for yourself theres no need to adhere to the meta to be successful and have fun, its just that alot of people also find hyper optimization fun as well and those are the type of people who are *usually* more competitive and go out of their way to be in tournaments so it just leads to most tournament participants trying to follow the meta as a correlated byproduct even if non-meta teams are sometimes harder to deal with because theyre less predictable
@orchid685
@orchid685 Жыл бұрын
@JubioHDX I agree with this. I noticed myself while using it that despite how well it worked on my specific team I did think of other mons to fill its role better in one way but the versatility alone made it work. Of course that's with my team in mind where I'd have to replace two mons to cover everything it does for me
