This makes Incineroar a three time world champion in the masters devision. Absolute legend.

[@arminarlert1953]

May I ask why he is always played in competition? Thanks Im a new played and I wonder why

[@arminarlert1953]

@Professor Thinker ohhh i see inalways see him using fake out

[@flbreglass]

I didn’t like Incin for a long time, but once I started building and experimenting with teams, Incin is irreplaceable. The bulk in Def and HP is crazy, fire and dark typing with Intimidate. Fake out pressure with Parting Shot as a phasing move is incredible. It fits on any team, rain or sun!

[@Spacetech3000]

That crazy especially since there was 2 yrs without worlds. He would prolly be 5 time if not for the shutdown

When the dynamax animation took so long the commentators had time to discuss who would be dynamaxed; Charizard or Grimsnarl 😂

[@TimeAndOrSpace]

I’ve never watched the VGC before. How come the matches end even though both sides had Pokémon? I thought it was all 6 to be knocked out?

[@GravityTheGhost]

VGC is a 4 on 4 double battle. They each have to pick 4 of their 6 Pokemon to use each battle As for the match end, you have the option to surrender when choosing commands

[@kurtmace6532]

In VGC competitions you have a team of 6 Pokémon to choose from, but you only bring 4 to each battle

[@DoubleOEspresso]

For VGC format you choose 4 out of your 6 Pokemon. So based on your opponent’s team, you can choose which pokemon to bring accordingly

[@madhatten00]

3 pokemon knocked out; only groudon was left he surrendered instead of waiting for the full hp rillaboom to one shot him next turn

[@alessandropezzotta23]

That "Behemoth Blade" on G-Max Charizard on the 3rd battle is pure genius, and it is definitely what cost the win!

Edit: OK so I forgot about Groudon's protect. I guess they both had to predict what the other would do and Guillermo won that particular read. I know I'm late but I remember at the time being surprised by the end of game 2. Someone help me if I'd missing something. Rillaboom uses fake out onto Incineroar which allows Groudon to take out Thundurus, drop the Rillaboom's speed and allow Incineroar to KO with flare blitz. I expected instead a fake out to remove the Groudon, Wild Charge onto Incineroar and then Flare Blitz would KO either pokemon but would leave the other faster to take the game. Is it possible Eduardo misclicked because I don't see the benefit of using fake out on Incineroar
