medicham is also one of my favorites, so on the off chance tera raids interest you, there's some fun options. PSYCHIC TERA medicham@shell bell (pure power, +atk - spAtk), 252 hp/252 atk/4 def, zen headbutt, light screen, power trick, psych up. turn 1: VS special, light screen. VS physical, power trick. turn 2: psych up belly drummer. FIGHTING TERA medicham@punching glove (pure power, +atk -spAtk), 252 hp/252 atk/4 def, drain punch, light screen, power trick, psych up. turn 1: VS special, light screen. VS physical, power trick. turn 2: psych up belly drummer. the piggybackers. with all the belly drummers running around, psych up is very fun. (shout out to golduck as well.) but they can put in work solo as well. im also a big support player, so i have two different support builds, these sets focus on skill swapping teammates to give them pure power. medicham@flame orb (pure power, +def -spAtk), 252 hp/252 def/4 spDef, fling, reflect, taunt, skill swap. physical support set. taunt turn 1. reflect/skill swap turn 2. skill swap/reflect turn 3. fling when tera shield is up to apply burn. medicham@leftovers (pure power, +spDef -spAtk), 252 hp/252 spDef/4 def, brick break/body slam, light screen, taunt, skill swap. special support set. taunt turn 1. light screen/skill swap turn 2. skill swap/light screen turn 3. brick break for screens/body slam slam for paralyze thru tera shield, whichever you prefer. fling and light orb another option! anywho, super underrated pokemon, had to take the time to ramble.

I used to play singles format at conventions where we dressed and gym leaders and took challenges and gave prizes to players who brought their consoles. I was Brawly and mono fighting is tough to use but I loved it. My Azumarill counter was skill swap on my Mega Gallade (I would forget I gave them inner focus...) but Azu even with a belly drum wasn't nearly as scary without the ability. A later iteration was Dry Skin Toxicroak who wouldn't die to unboosted Play Rough and outspeeds otherwise and can't get hit by Aqua jet

Oh wow! Medicham is one of my favorite pokemon (for the reason why, just look up its attack animations in the Gamecube games) and I've been theorycrafting various team comps for it and its new Skill Swap for weeks now, with some serious option paralysis kicking in. I'm hyped for this! As for what else should get Skill Swap... I'm honestly kind of stumped. They've been very generous with what gets Skill Swap this generation, I feel. Medicham gets it, finally, and even Espathra in theory gets to give away its Speed Boost, which, while still gimmicky in a way, seems pretty neat. While not Skill Swap, we even get Entrainment on Cetitan to spread Slush Rush, which seems really cool on paper.

Sometimes I think you just need to go for the gimmick when a team has placed high enough, because that's a good indication the gimmick is very strong. Huge Power is gifting Swords Dance to an ally and any Pokémon that gets a free Swords Dance is a threat. Sure, Skill Swap has its limitations (dark type, Good as Gold), but generally feels decent right now. There was a Stantler gimmick team that also ended up with some good reasons to use Skill Swap. The nice thing about Skill Swap is that few Pokémon run bad skills, so there's usually something decent to snatch if you're gimmick isn't in play. I'd love to see Skill Swap on both Mold Breaker Tinkaton and Pure Power Medicham solely to watch Gholdengo lose Good as Gold to Tinkaton. I don't know what you'd do after it loses Good As Gold (ummm, Leech Seed Appletun?), but it'd be fun to see that happen to Gholdengo just once.

Would this work with a bulky Slaking and just basically have Medicham be fodder for a free switch in? EDIT: Back after using it, and it’s honestly crazy, I scarfed Medicham to get the skill swap off then if I live the next turn(usually do cause they target pure power slaking) I skill swap truant onto something else if possible. It was a sick combo but I did get stopped a few times, crazy if you can pull it off(ghost Tera on Medicham to bypass any fake outs) EDIT AFTER EDIT: So I switched the scarf for focus sash. I lead with murkrow Medicham, set up tail wind and fake out. Next turn I switch out murkrow for slaking and with my max speed investment Medicham I haven’t been outsped In tailwind yet, so I skill swap slaking on switch in and it’s ggs from there.

I'd love to see tatsuguri with a working skill swap, seeing dondozo eat something like a gyarados or donphan would be hilarious Think it would also be fun to see it on a swift swim/slush rush/sand rush/clorophyll pokemon. It has a lot of probably too powerful synergies & the ability to make opponents faster for trick room.

im not the most pvp competitive guy. I do love your videos and double battles though. its such a pitty there is no battle tower for double battles in this game. A new game double battle plus mode with all lvl 100 would be awesome too

I know Espeon and Umbreon get skill swap as a TM because of their typing, but i think it would be fun to see the other eevelutions using it (i love jolteon and idk, sounds fun)

I’d think Expert Belt is better than a type-boosting item if you’re running it to win a specific matchup with a coverage move.

I’d imagine Commander is a skill that can’t be swapped off, like Wonder Guard. It wouldn’t be surprising if Zero to Hero was as well.

@@bobertjohnson4459 correct on both counts. as well as the paradox abilities and miraidon/koraidon abilities. That's all added this gen though.

qotd: clawitzer. i think it could be very interesting being able to opt into a different ability catching people off guard when you run hard hitting moves instead of just pulse coverage.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't it have been way better to fake out and flower trick at the start of game 3? Meowscarada isn't really threatened there and you could've then secured trick room turn 2 with a knock out and trick room? Edit: Just interesting that you really analysed your turn 2 and didnt consider that you didn't have to trick room immediately. Great content as always.
