I wanna give a shout to Hisuian Qwilfish, as a supportive Intimidater with Eviolite, it's actually pretty bulky (bulkier than Overqwil) and could be annoying with stuff like Toxic (Spikes), Barb Barrage etc.

[@pokatana4130]

Yeah. I’m a Hisuian Samurott advocate. It’s not the worst mon competitively. It does put in work. You did look at the wrong stat spread for Hisuian Samurott as it has 108 att and 85 speed at the cost of losing some bulk. But, I agree that B tier is reasonable. I’d rank it low A if psychic teams become popular.

[@snorp_lord6141]

Honestly, with the amount of psychic types running around (Armarouge, Indeedee), as well as Flutter Mane? Plus being immune to taunt right when Incinerator is poised to return and Murkrow's been so present? I can absolutely see Samurott's dark typing alone making it useful.

[@Junya01]

It’s S tier in OU rn. The first starter to hit S tier ever, quite the feat

[@lovelyluna733]

I think it's main issue is that it has so much dark and Water type competition that it makes it hard to slot. It's a solid pokemon but we have Chien Pao and the other ruins, the Urshifus, Goltress, Basculegion, Palafin so it does become a struggle to justify using it over them. It has potential because spikes can be stacked and sharpness makes up for the attack stat, you're using 100 BP STABs and a 135 BP Sacred Sword afterall

[@peyton.york513]

@@lovelyluna733 Scarf and sash sets on Samu are insane tbh. The ability to have big power in its attacks due to sharpness, plus great overall moves in Sacred Sword, X-Scissor, Knock Off, AJ, Aqua Cutter, and the best move of all Ceaseless Edge. Plus for sash sets, you have SD to boost STAB Aqua Jet & Sucker Punch. It’s a very high ceiling mon.

[@lovelyluna733]

@Peyton York yes those moves can output a good amount of damage, 100 BP STABs and 130 BP coverage, but you're being compared to Chien Pao, who with Sword of Ruin basically has an attack stat of 170. It's hard to pass up the thing 252 Atk Sword of Ruin Chien-Pao Ice Spinner vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mew: 165-195 (48.3 - 57.1%) -- 91.8% chance to 2HKO 252 Atk Sharpness Samurott-Hisui Aqua Cutter vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mew: 151-178 (44.2 - 52.1%) -- 16% chance to 2HKO It is a Feat to be comparable in damage to Chien Pao, but it still speaks to what Samu is competing with. The Urshifu's also have 110-120 BP STAB in their signature move and close combat along with a higher attack stat (130 vs 108). And they don't even use their ability to actually have decent STABs because they already do, unseen fist is easily the most broken thing in the game. And when you SD, you're acting like a worse Urshifu. (Lower hp, lower attack, lower Def, relative SpD, slower, lacking in ability). It's not bad or anything, sure, but it has so much competition it can't keep up with, Hence people don't use it often. OU really shows you what it can do when it's competition is banned (albeit, hazards are major there)

[@vicksin]

Hi Wolfe! You actually missed a super important part of the Genie's Storm moves (I don't blame you, it's kind of a hidden mechanic) - they don't check accuracy in rain. That's right, Tornadus the monster that it is, has 100% accurate 100bp spread move with a 30% chance to lower speed for each pokemon. Thundurus gets a 10bp weaker spread version of Thunder with a 20% chance to para each Pokemon Lando gets a 100bp ground spread move boosted even further by sheer force life orb, or with a 20% chance to burn each pokemon if you run Sand Force instead I'm not too sure about Lando, I could see it maybe working in some situations, but both Tornadus and Thundurus sound terrifying in rain now, especially with Prankster Rain Dance

They did announce they gonna fix it. 20:25 There is no Tapu Koko, but Miraidon is in. Even if only in some game modes. Raichu is still bad, but you know - there may be some crazy gimmick that people would use, I guess. 20:50 SV is Dark Type infested. Prankster is actually way weaker in this gen, because of that. Not to mention all the plethora anti-status abilities introduced this gen. 34:10 Regieleki will be gross. 38:10 Any Pokemon can now wield Ice type Tera Blast. Tera Landorus could counter it, but I think it will be way weaker than usual. Especially as we have more things that work against Intimidate and also not many Pokemon that are super weak against ground, flying or rock. It's still will be disgusting, but I don't see it doing as good as previously. Especially as we do have a lot of high damage attackers. Palafin, Flutter Mane, even Dondozo do good against it. And the new move doesn't buff it as much as those do for other djinns. 40:20 From illegal Pokemon - at least for Smogon definitely Mew, Calyrex and Magearna will be pretty disgusting with Tera mechanics. Volcanion is now the only Scald user, Hoopa could also get a lot from Tera typing.

Hi, i am sneazler’s avocado. I just want to make everyone see that he is super effective against all A and S tier mons. He has very good coverage and close combat+dire claw+acrobatics is not resisted by any type. Witch makes place for fake-out, a really good move, especially for your lead. And ladies and gentlemen, you are gonna lead this thing Altough you may think his biggest strengh is his coverage, you are wrong. His biggest strengh is the combo between his ability, a forgoten gen 9 item and a forgoten gen 9 Pokemon. I am talking about unburden, mirror herb and scovilain. Unberden makes a Pokemon insanely fast when it loses or uses his item. Wolf is talking about focus sash, but i got even better: mirror herb. Mirror herb is USED when an ennemy gets a buff, and it copies said buff. Now you might say: But why, random human being, would i base my strat on the enemies team? Thats the neat part, you dont. Because scovilain exists with his demed bad signature move: spicy extract. This move BUFFS a Pokemon’s attack but lowers his defense. Every one was shiting on this move, but i saw his potential: use it on a enemy. The enemy is debuffed, and if you have mirror herb on one of your Pokemon, HE gets the buff. Do you see de vision? You make your sneazler slightly slower than scovilain ( his speed is doubling anyway ) and Target the same Pokemon with your attacking sneazler move and your spicy extract. Sneazler now has double speed, double attack, buffed acrobatics and a free kill since the enemy has no defence. You can now sweep, using your scovilain as an Amoonguss-like with rage powder and helping hand. Ps: use flying tera for sneazler, it negates the ground weakness and buffs acrobatics Pss: sorry for my poor orthograph, i am french Pss: please make Wolfey see this

Wolfe: Lemme Tell Ya About Cresselia! Me, the viewer: I’m listening.

[@laxbeastmode]

This feels like OG Wolfe content, just what we needed

[@Laughingwithtravii]

this really helped me get a grasp on the new mons, so thank you!! wonderful as always. some thoughts from poking around in team builder: fake out priority on rillaboom and sneasler gonna be huge in setting up tailwind/trick rooms, and i foresee covert cloak, mental herb, ghost/dark tera being very common for turn 1. frisk wyrdeer skill swapping guts off ursaluna (or intimidate with a competitive mon?) i think its utility is gonna be its big selling point lowkey. confuse ray/thunder wave rng, disable, screens or helping hand if you want, and psyshield bash giving you defense to outlast ursa/physicals, and ghost tera sounds super sweet to get around the facades/close combats (especially if you end up skill swapping cresselia's levitate, so ursa's EQs hit it too.) also rillaboom's knock off could just stop guts before it gets outta hand potentially. galar articuno getting access to both tailwind and trick room AND imprison. not sure how reliable it would be, but i imagine being able to deny trick room while still having tailwind or being able to trick room when someone else tailwinds has a lot of value. normal tera regieleki, max speed/atk, adamant nature, normal gem explosions. also why i think protect will still be meaningful even when urshifu exist. prankster rain dance is gonna be very common with the +accuracy to storm moves, so i think running other weather specifically to counter (prankster sunny day for example) could really throw a wrench in some plans. alternatively, wide guard. sadly only hisu avelugg is the newest with it. however, thats exactly the type of mon i think would pair well with galar articuno bc of its middling speed. you could trick room against fast teams, and imprison trick room VS actual trick room teams. sadly you cant run assault vest on hisu avelugg if you run wide guard. i think it needs assault vest to even be usable honestly, which also means no protect. also shout out to wind rider brambleghast. anywho im excited to see what all happens! i think we are gonna see a HUGE drop in ground types effectiveness due to all the flying types. i also think this will mean amoonguss wont be as popular, which i think will eventually mean that water tera becomes the new grass tera, which will also give electric some much needed usefulness being able to hit all the new flying mons + defensive water tera's.

[@BKChanSaga6767]

Tera Ice Regileki,nuff said

[@Laughingwithtravii]

@@BKChanSaga6767 yeh thats the other more common tera. normal tera explosion is just a great gimmick to catch people off guard tbh, still fun tho!

[@carthagegaming5545]

Hm, Kleavor can use assault vest and have some solid bulk and still set stealth rocks

[@Pogitoed]

the new genie moves they added are 100% accurate in rain besides enamorus's

[@thetzar2573]

Wolfey's bookmarks: Pokemon, Tax, and KZbin. Truly fits the character.

[@Xiuhcoatl_]

The algorithm can keep that over edited Wolfe I like this Wolfe better, a real YouTubist.

[@felixhenson9926]

Chlorophyll physical attacker i mostly think Leafeon tbf EDIT: I just remembered Sawsbuck!

[@RyanP319]

Ngl im vibing with eviolite qwilfish

[@scottcrysel]

I never used Regidrago in SwSh, but I gotta say tera has opened a whole new world for him in SV Also, feels like Chien-Pao is nuking the entire S tier minus Urshi lol (and Heatran if CP isn't running sacred sword)

[@thundergamespt99]

You did it. You called Chien Pao CP

[@Chwarzerd]

I could argue that Hisui qwilfish would be a much better intimidate mon than overqwil, better bulk with eviolite and has access to nice support moves like taunt and haze, also icy wind for speed control

[@jacobaaandersen]

I don't think there is anything wrong with making a tierlist before playing the format, but I do think you should make it obvious to people that it is predictions :) (Just my two cents that no one asked for) Thanks for great content, glad to see the old video format returning :)

[@mysticsquirtle5109]

Thunderus with prankster terrain isn’t actually that bad, especially since it opens up possibilities for more paradox Pokemon and makes it so iron bundle doesn’t need booster energy, the only issue is that it’s a primary electric attacker that buffs Eleki

[@massimilianodelrosso5495]

At this point i'd just run an Eleki with Electric Field, Electro Web, Tera Blast/ Thunderbolt and Protect, which could be nice in tandem with Iron Bundle to destroy Ground, Grass and Dragons

[@TbdPonchoBillionaire]

“We have 4 levitating psychic types from Sinnoh” *BRONZONG HAS ENTERED THE CHAT*

[@Emul7ifier]

it would be hilarious if he just left this up with no sound

[@kiernannies7602]

I’ve been throwing enamorous and specs flutter mane out together and just clicking springtide and dazzling gleam and plowing through games, even sun teams

[@SmitikusPlays]

"I don't see it being good" puts it in C tier. I saw that Wolfe, you have puns

[@Qaos]

Fun fact: The genies' storm moves are perfectly accurate in Rain! :]

[@janmoon493]

Where is H-Zoroark? I know it's technically been available before Home but it's format debut is also in Regulation D and it would be nice to hear ur thoughts on it

[@stevencummins4753]

Finally I can make a full bear team

[@bdellovibrioo5242]

Don't worry, we appreciate your prognostications, prince.

[@lowfianimal8605]

When you can, make a team of only S-tiers. Either you stomp, or it becomes a cool challenge because you don't have access to pokemon in lower tiers.

[@Exquailibur]

Hisuian liligant gets after you I think and with its speed in sun it can outrun eleki, its also less passive than regular liligant so you could prolly pair it with torkoal and go after you, protect, close combat, and maybe solar blade with a focus sash and it could do some serious work.

[@kevinblackwellwelder]

too many prankster rain dance users though

[@Exquailibur]

@@kevinblackwellwelder there are ways to deal with that and its not as if that is all the litigant will be doing, fact is that it can do some serious damage and while torkoal is the traditional after you pairing you can do other variations. Any slow pokemon would not mind if liligant let it bowwow its decent speed

[@shisuifirr8691]

And regidrago has already got top 8 in 2 tournaments

The quote of the day: «Thank… Pikachu for that»

[@caelaxaeandzyllynn]

Now this is the content I live for

[@blankcanvas3358]

I can live with certain Mythical Pokémon being banned, but I’d at least enjoy people talking more about how they’d work hypothetically. Even if I’m more of a casual, There’s so little I found about the best way to use Hoopa.

[@jager8148]

Smogon :D

[@gbach919]

Not sure if hisuian decidueye will be good, but the fact that it gets scrappy means it can smack ghost types like gholdengo which is kinda neat

[@AdminAbuse]

Gholdengo

[@gbach919]

@AdminAbuse that's definitely how I spelt it, pay no attention to the (edited) man behind the curtain

[@Xhadp]

I'm surprised 'eleki didn't get put into its own S+ tier or even at least put first in the S tier. That thing was a menace in gen 8 and will continue to dominate going into gen 9.

[@mcsmileycorp]

A calc I ran that will probably end up being relevant is that both urshifus can ohko max hp ursaluna when terra fighting with no attack boosting items. This format is going tro be nuts. Also with how hard enamorus is to reset for I pray it doesn't become meta defining.

[@trevorpacelli8056]

Wolfe, I challenge you to take all the F-tier Pokémon on your list and put them in teams that actually make them good. If you could do it with Delcatty you can do it with Alolan Dugtrio.

[@samuelwager2181]

22:56 didn't age well, in a good way

[@AltimaMantoid]

I'm convinced people are sleeping on Kleavor's damage and utility with Stone Axe. Sharpness Stone Axe with a free Stealth Rock is kinda bonkers

[@grahamloed9764]

Wolfey you didn’t notice the true horror of the genies….. all their new moves except enamorus’ are 100% accurate in rain

[@zacharybanaszek6769]

God I’ve missed this kinda content, I love bonus wolfe

[@Sticc_Man]

Hisuian Samurott has 5 points off hp and both defenses for 15 more on speed, plus 8 off SpAtk and 8 on Atk
