[@thatonespacenerd1272]

What’s really fascinating about this gimmick to me, is that it seems really strategically rich- for instance, you have the list of the best terra types, but those aren’t something you absolutely need to live by. I can imagine several layers of strategy, where people choose unorthodox Tera types because they’re planning around the ‘optimal’ Tera types. There’s also the versatility of when to use it- to go early to allow for safe setup, or to wait until a pivotal moment to swing the odds back in your favor. It all seems really fun and unique.

[@SkyBlueFox1]

Tbh what I find really interesting about it is that Gamefreak actually managed to nail one of these gimmick-mechanics. Every other gimmick they’ve tried introducing seems to have had a negative effect on competitive in some way (while also being pointless in singleplayer, except Dynamax which was so OP as to be required in singleplayer :y ), but this actually provides an extra layer of depth without going overboard. Like, even in the main story, where I was consistently overleveled and Terastalizing didn’t matter much, I was still going out of my way to get shards because changing my team’s Tera types was a really appealing idea. Changing Armarouge to Fighting to give it resistance to Dark, for instance, and powering up Aura Sphere. Granted, that’s probably not super optimal, but I gave it some thought and made the decision myself based on proper strategizing and theory-crafting, which is something I never really felt about Mega Evos or Dynamaxing.

[@JayceCH.]

@@SkyBlueFox1 1) Dynamax was never mandatory except on multiplayer. 2) Terastylize has less strategic layers than Dynamax simply because of secondary effects from Max moves. 3) NO ONE is going out their way to change their tera types while doing the story except recatching. It takes 50 fucking shards to do so. So all Terastylize turns out to be is just Adaptability while playing through the game. Thats why you feel like you dont need it.

[@farfetchdthegamer3810]

Tera Flying actually has many more benefits: Lots of things are 4x weak to Ground or Fighting. Flying can resist Fighting and is immune to Ground, making for a low-weakness Pokémon that can dish out big damage. 2. A lot of Electric types have Volt Absorb. If you have Tera Flying on one of them, you get a Pokémon with only two weaknesses, two immunities and great coverage.

[@TheNewRobotMaster]

It's also one of only 7 types that has no way of mitigating it through immunity or absorbtion (including, surprisingly, bug). That's part of the reason why it was so devastating in Dynamax: you always got the speed boost unless they Max Guarded (steel enjoyed the same benefit).

Keep in mind that this was based on how often among the 400 (or however many Pokemon are legal and viable, which Tera probably widens more than most are thinking) a given Tera Type appeared as their "best" in Wolfey's, and possibly his team's, opinion. Make a list for only the "best" Pokemon in competitive play and you'll likely get something very different. Never mind that this Mechanic especially has a lot of potential for an ever evolving meta game as Pokemon drift in and out based on how well they counter or are countered by specific Mon and Tera combinations. Who knows. Hydreigon might best use Steel right now, but a Fire Lycanroc (random example) might emerge as a counter versus the over abundance of Tera Steel in general. Which is then countered by a Tera Ground Whiscash that wasn't really viable before due to Earthquake missing that levitating annoyance and Grass being common in general (100% Crit Meowscarada signature move) before being pushed out by the new Fire threats. Point is: This list is not representative of the current or future meta of competitive play. Just an exercise in statistical analysis.

DMax or GMax too soon, and you're playing into their hands, leaving yourself open, and mostly praying you can survive. Do it too late, and it's the same boat. Whereas with Mega Evolution was just a mess. Already OP Pokemon gained EVEN MORE power, and team pools became extremely narrow. There weren't enough viable pokemon to be varied. Every team was the same. Which doesn't make competitive very fun.

[@BushSage]

Wait does that mean your tera types are revealed? I think thats honestly worse for strategy. Its like showing your moves in team preview. Who ever said surprise isn't strategy, not knowing what your opponent may do and predicting it appropriately is the pinnacle of strategy. Knowing all of your opponents terra-types beforehand kills a lot of that. It takes out a lot of surprise factor and prediction and makes it more about brute forcing your way through. (Edit: I just found out this also includes moves, abilities, and items being shown before the battle. Holy crap tournament play sounds so unfun to me. Knowing the exact set your opponents are running feels so absurdly wrong. I feel like you should be rewarded for being intelligent and experienced enough to know the possible sets your opponent has.)

If you join the channel on KZbin or subscribe to his Twitch, you can get access to his Discord where there's a posted list of all the best tera types for each Pokémon! I think he's also mentioned maybe making a video on those in the future, but we'll have to wait and see

[@valectronica1812]

Thanks for the great video to Wolfey and the rest of the team!! I've been enjoying learning about competitive Pokemon from this channel, and all the new Scarlet and Violet videos are fantastic! I hope you reach 1 million subs soon :D

[@fairyflight8436]

While I'm happy for all this content, please don't wear yourself out. Also excited for the best terra for every pokemon video.

[@Cbobley]

Great video! Really surprising list but what do you expect; it's Wolfey. I really like terrastializing just as the primary type of the pokemon a lot of the time for the offensive bonuses, but the defensive perks of an unexpected terastializaiton are compelling. Also just wanna mention "resistances" is spelled as "resistences" a couple times in the video

[@ulisesvilasanchez1996]

One question, is this list based around doubles? It would be interesting to see if things change taking into consideration that singles plays differently to doubles. Ex. I think ghost should be higher because of its ability to avoid rapid spin in singles.

[@harrya9458]

Wolfey is a VGC player, so pretty much all of his vids center around the format. He doesn’t have as much experience in singles or even 6v6 doubles.

[@Cross._._]

Oh man, I've been waiting for this video. Early Wolf gang! Thank you and your team for the awesome content you've been pumping out!

[@Crest_of_Thunders]

Glad to see my two favorite types, Electric and Fire, so high up. Keep up the good work Wolfe!

[@HoodlumCallum]

this is a very useful video, thank you

[@nickhelmer]

I am surprised you didn't mention Tera Fire's value on physical attackers, making them immune to Burns.

[@gabetheblade7617]

I feel like picking (on average) the best Tera type for each pokemon would be a cool video

[@spinethrasher5371]

this has not aged well

[@gameing_0]

yea it’s almost like a ranking in a vacuum like without the established meta we have now

[@calogeromicciche6719]

​@@gameing_0 Sorry I am just getting into the meta of Pokémon, and have not paid attention until now, so what exactly is the meta? I am guessing grass to resist spores for Amoongus and fairy, dark, water, and fire offensively as I have seen some? Please let me know if you can

[@darreltan1694]

​​@@calogeromicciche6719 fairy and grass are the dominant tera types. Fire and water have been fairly common as well, as well as ghost for fake out immunity. Tera poison defo isn't second worst - its a defensive tera so the fact it doesn't have much offensive threat is irrelevant

[@crawdaddy2004]

Your mom HAS aged well.

[@mikeleddyphoto]

Pleaseee share the list of the best Tera type for every mon 🙏🏼 love this vid, thanks for all the work you put in!

[@ambermind3233]

is there any way we can get access to the full spreadsheet shown at 0:18?

[@cardiacarrest4200]

you can find it on pokemon db by clicking on any of the type’s individual pages

[@RasuiTheFallen]

youve been so consistent wolfey, good shit

[@ardent-ace27]

The editing in this is lovely

[@KanderUdon]

Its funny looking back now that tera poison is on half of all teams

[@lightningunlimited]

great way to start the day, thanks Wolfey

[@williamtabachnick6908]

Hey I was just thinking about how cool and interesting it would be for you to do a video about getting Pokémon into competitive shape. Like ev training, hyper training, raid farming etc, it would be an interesting look behind the curtain :)

[@majincringe110]

this list needs an update 😭

[@matthewjamesmjw4172]

Hope you get to 1 mil soon wolfey! Keep up the hard work!

[@AlefSousa017]

Oh, I see Steel keeps getting Ws left and right, love to see it! It has always been my favorite type ever since it was introduced and way before I knew how good it actually is

[@periiwrinkles]

i’ve always enjoyed your informative videos, but after watching your scarlet playthrough, i can also appreciate the personality behind the information! :)

[@j0zie477]

I STILL NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY FAIRY RESISTS BUG. like fairy isnt super effective against bug neither does it logically make sense that a fairy would resist bug if anything it makes sense that it would be WEAK to bug. bug being the worst type AND with all of the ice type buffs this gen, they coulda buffed it by making it at least hit fairy types for neutral. the best type resisting the worst type is just so lame in game balance like have at least something thats going for bug types 💀

[@woodengamer7847]

Great video man I've been waiting for this! I did want to ask if you ever will be showing the full list of tera types you recommend for each pokemon in a future video as well. I assume it might be pretty obvious as to what pokemon should get what type since you've already done explaining, but maybe a look at each pokemon would be a good idea for a separate video.

[@yuvalwh]

The effort Wolfe puts into this channel is insane, awesome video as always!

[@illusionaryheart3325]

I actually love Poison-Tera Hydreigon with the poison move it learns (I forget which one). But honestly, Steel Tera with Flash Cannon also works and is probably a lot better

[@mattmanley7118]

Been waiting for this don’t wanna waste those shards

[@devv197]

Be mindful that a top tier Tera might not be the best type for every mon.

[@rainbowturtle]

Some pokemon that don't want steel are pokemon that have hefty weaknesses to something steel is already weak to- a pokemon like Glimmora, who could use a better defensive typing (rock/poison), sounds like it'd love steel- however, a 4x weakness to ground makes steel less than desirable, as your opponent would just click earthquake anyways. As powerful as steel is, there definetly are some drawbacks.

[@carrotmaster8521]

WAIT YOU MAINTAIN YOUR ORIGINAL STAB

[@JanusHoW]

Well, Wolfey, you made me do it. You and your videos made me get Pokemon Violet. I've been playing Monster Hunter: Rise Sunbreak, but it'll be around a month before the next update and I'm running out of stuff to do in that game, so I need something else to play. I've only played up to Gen 5 until now, so I'm kind of excited to see how things have changed, especially with the removal of random encounters.

[@DaShikuXI]

Note that Tera fire is particularly spicy now since Tera steel is so common.

[@CheeseThePurpleDragon]

I love turning on wolf’s videos to fall asleep to 😊

[@TunaBear64]

12:04 EXCUSE ME!?!? You claim to be a VGC master and don't even mention that Tera Grass makes you INMUNE TO SPORE.

[@jstar3382]

Found a tinkatink with tera grass. Was a great mixup on ground types since they go for EQ and I live, and then they get rocked by tera blast

[@ashameddonald6674]

If fairy and steel ARNT the 1 and 2 I will be surprised

[@Youvebeenpoisoned]

oh how wrong you were

[@bronwynroberts860]

You were half right.

[@Smenchevieve]

Gotta love the Psychic Battle theme from Pokemon Conquest when you started talking about the psychic type! That game is amazing with a hell of a soundtrack to boot!

[@qbking3377]

That poison type one aged poorly

[@ajtp1349]

Tera dark has saved me against many grimmsnarls trickster ability in singles

[@SmeargleStuff]

16:21 Why the fuck does your Skeledirge have flamethrower instead of Torch Song?

[@that_dwayneee]

I feel like you really glossed over one thing in particular here: dragapult. Tera ghost finally gives it good physical ghost stab and lets it tear through targets with ease.

[@ZKrinny]

Wideo babyyy

[@thescribblequeen]

Thank you SO much for this. It's a really well thought out video, and I'm looking forward to seeing a list where I can look up my favorite Pokemon and then search for one with a good tera type match. This also helps slot into place for a more casual player what role Terastallizing can play, so I can make better use of it!

[@DJCheese77]

Safe to say this aged poorly

[@theaverageprotogen2593]

Huh

[@dv9013]

great and informative video, really looking forward to future projects. one thing i think could be improved to make it easier to follow such rankings, could be a clear cut when a new thing is talked abt. so its easier to think with ur explanations and not get confused. loved it otherwise!
