I can't believe that people were flaming you about a day 1 tierlist. The concept is wild to me. We all say dumb shit without seeing any of these things really interact, and I'm happy y'all did this video cause it speaks to how light-hearted all this is meant to be. This is coming from a guy that thought Quaquaval would be a broken piece of garbage when it was revealed. Thanks for your vids mate. Love the monotype series, and I enjoy stuff like this a lot

[@lalad0]

I thought deep down that gambit would fall from OU.... LOL

[@emilyminami4172]

You took a “break” thinking I would forget about the mono rock live. I haven’t forgotten. I will never forget.

[@Nako3]

The legend is back!

[@davidwindsor2579]

Good to see you back! Sorry that you were crucified for being wrong on the internet, unlike KZbin/Twitter commenters who are never wrong

[@Fig_Bender]

I get the feeling Nathan wasn't taking the tier list too seriously during its creation!

[@ethanwallis5678]

Zapdos is one of my favourite OU staples But then, so was tyrannitar…

[@peashootingangrybirds1360]

Same 😢

[@adamriley9241]

I love suspect tier lists. It's a window into the players mind and values of each mon and how they see the meta games. Also the game can have be drastically different if a pokemon is banned in the duration of prediction and release. Keep doing them, awesome content and you get to come back later for more engagement and a learning curve too.

RIP headphone users ❤

yeah I gotta remix my audio, something's off 😅

[@honjon666]

​@@NathanLikesChickeni like my chicken deep fried and extra crispy

​@@honjon666I like my chicken raw

[@Greatbabyred]

chadded up for taking all the criticism so well. If I got that much shit I would probably rage and then leave the website

[@rasche3455]

Ooooo, I had a feeling a video like this would be coming lmao. Sry if my original tweet came off too aggro, i love seeing goofy day 1 tierlists; glad to see my tierlist also aged like milk (UU enam lmao). Cool video would love to see a pt2 for DLC mons

[@NathanLikesChicken]

nah your response was cool dw 👍. of all the lists I feel like yours was one of the better ones though!

[@rasche3455]

aye ty bro, i also remember being super proud of correctly guessing h-samurott would be good, ik in pre-home discussions it wasn't being discussed as a top 3 home drop mon@@NathanLikesChicken

[@libra_1059]

LETS GO! A Nathan vid, we love to see it

[@NoxiousWhat]

I have no idea about Pokemon Showdown/competitive Pokemon. This is such a highly specific domain of knowledge. "This Pokemon can use Ghostly ZForce Shnitzel after a Defensive Flying Type no-contact Delivery Smash move is stopped by another Pokemon holding a Joy Tusk."

[@steve.m7443]

Yay, Nathan's back!! Glad you had a good August

[@dragontamermeg5311]

I was literally just thinking right when you uploaded I haven’t seen Nathan upload in a bit! Hope you’ve been good! Miss the chicken cooking streams.

[@joshwinkler9389]

Regardless of topics it’s really easy to ridicule other people or Monday morning quarterback them but it’s a lot harder to put your thoughts and ideas out there to be analyzed and ridiculed in the first place. Keep up the good work

[@___horizon___252]

Welcome back. We love you Nathan

[@morganbush7775]

Return of the KING!!!

[@xeno9671]

Great to see another upload 😊

[@honjon666]

I might have missed your poll but I think it would be cool to see you and Finch some more. I think you guys make a great duo, and finch stopped posting it seems lol. Maybe you guys could get in on some NU? Flamigo was just banned

[@skipr6346]

Nathan i always enjoy your content

[@blueash7077]

Respectfully I think you should have a good day.

[@RoryTheFiend]

Welcome back king, this is a fun concept! I'm gonna listen while I take my dog for a walk 🐕 Also dang that day 1 tier list ATTACK on you rip, totally funny how serious some Pokémon players are when you express a just for fun opinion (I respect Ur Pokémon takes)

[@sambowen7269]

So happy you're back, would love to see you try some Gen9 monotype w the new home mons. I've been loving rock w Kleavor and Arcanine.

[@alejandrocervantes9138]

he's back and has shown off camera character growth

[@user-px6pu9vj1r]

Yesssss he is backkk

[@Cyrllo]

Always food to see one of your videos in my recommended

[@kingwhacka8105]

Ah I remember that I posted a tierlist in the comments of your twitter too lol. I liked that you had some bold ideas, I honestly wasnt that far off. One of the surprising things I got right was Basculegion-Female in UU, but actually being in the higher tier than Male. I also saw Chesnaught in UU and Diancie in RU. I WISH I went with my guts on Urshifu being banned, I mostly thought it was my copium in believing its better than Single. Good video

[@TheodoreZeller-fi2vn]

I always appreciate your content Nathan! S rank Pokémon KZbinr imho.

[@icycrybaby]

Hello again, daddy! Btw you were pretty close in your tierlist, its like 70% or more. Too bad the twitter stan didnt like it

[@bingbabooie3697]

The Return of The King

[@quandaledingle9725]

Bro Nate I love you and your vid’s but man I couldn’t comprehend the havalugg in ou placement, otherwise the rest is pretty valid for a day 1 list

[@Stephen_809]

Man I’ve been playing a ton of randoms recently missin the channel! Who knows, maybe we’ll run into each other. Just tryin to make the soul reads like you! Keep up the gr8 work Broski

[@deepayne8033]

Nathan, I don’t normally do this but you can’t dip for a month. What is the number for you to stay with us? You have become my regularly viewed programming.

[@TheMackamaple]

Hey, Welcome back :)

[@shanecoffing]

I don't think anyone could have ever predicted cresselia it's so funny how everyone thought it was going to be so bad.

[@DantinozMC]

Bro can you get in to the list, I've heard you rant about not doing a long pre amble for 8 mins now

[@ArthurMartins-jw8fq]

He's baaack 🚨🚨🚨

[@superfrubblez6123]

I think it takes a lot of strength to admit where you’re wrong. I feel a little vindicated calling uubl luna day 1 but I had some horrific misses on what I thought was going on what tier.

[@benbroomhead7083]

The people throwing out hate probably didn’t get that it was a day one tier list, especially on reddit

[@benbroomhead7083]

+ obligatory ‘goat is back’ comment

[@MichaelKalonikos]

He’s back

[@DeathBane1x1]

Would've been a really cool and interesting video without the whole melodramatic twitter rant? I get it though, I get super defensive too sometimes. It was pretty dumb for people to flame you for that tier list, I know mine wouldn't have been any better. I like hearing you talk about pokemon, you're great at the game and really knowledgeable. You teach me a lot about the game, especially singles in general. I just personally didn't enjoy the first 9 minutes of twitter talk lol. Don't want this to come off as too abrasive though, nothing but love, Nathan.

[@NathanLikesChicken]

Yeah appreciate the honesty. was trying to limit the saltiness/defensiveness but reading the comments it seems I wasn't successful. Added a timestamp so people can skip the opening - I'll avoid videos like this in the future

[@JamvadAcademy]

Zapdos ru? yikes! Happens to the best of us

[@pyv0x733]

Swapped it for hisui avalugg

[@jonathanclement8770]

This video is engagement bait, it was posted I clicked and now I'm engaged

[@mrhmmm559]

YOU PLEASED ZAPDOES IN RU 💀

[@cristobalpinochet]

Avalugg is in OU, is crazy

[@therealchristian1]

Where you been? We missed you

[@JonsFrapeProductions]

Yoooo chickentuber is back. Nice.

[@alexanderahuja181]

I love you Nate, let the haters go through me next time. I will bite them

[@solgerWhyIsThereAnAtItLooksBad]

Ok, but OU havalug was inexcusable. I cannot comprehend what you were cooking with that one. Even tera flying would do nothing because it has no special bulk and would get chunked by make it rain

[@the_man861]

The avalugg take was crazy

[@Lankpants]

Muk being ranked up doesn't super surprise me. Its stats are just OK, but poison/dark is one of the best typing's ever. Only a single weakness and a ton of useful resists plus an immunity. It's one of those things where if there ever was a poison/dark with usable stats it would immediately become an OU staple. And Muk's stats are bad, but they're not that bad.

[@CommanderNewton]

They may laugh at you but you got most of them right

[@cqnrad]

great video, the audio is hilariously peaky for no reason but who cares

[@blazie42069]

Torn-T is literally one knock off away from OU, but hey at least its warping uu around it Also I predicted rapid strike was gonna be ubers and was right

[@benarmeni3370]

welcome back king

[@daxdleader719]

Hot take - muk being overrated in smogon 6v6 is an effect of draft league. In draft muk is like blissey. Slap an AV on it and it's your catch-all special wall

[@Poopoocachoo]

I get the reasoning behind a lot of these. The only one I would have hard disagreed with is Avalugg but other than that and probably Zapdos, it’s not that unreasonable

[@gymfamily]

Bro, I missed you! Welcome back. Now I need to say.... Who cares what people on reddit say? Seriously. 99 percent of all these people including myself are armchair analysts sitting behind a computer. People type whatever they want without any repercussions. It's the easiest thing in the world to just type comments on reddit without any repercussions, but it's hard to be a good content creator which I think you are. Don't let this bother you and hope you're doing well! Been watching you since you had like under 1K subscribers and thanks for the amazing content and vibes as always.

F1RST GO BEARS

[@jacobwallace2920]

Aside from that, screw the haters. Theyre just looking for 3 seconds of internet acceptance by talking shit and more than likely have a miserable life outside of the internet

[@Fabi3014]

Comparing it to a Ultimate tierlist gotta be the worst Game to compare to tho 😭 of course, stuff like K Rool is a good examples, but otherwise a lot of shifts happen cuz of nerfs/buffs (sadly not the case in mons)

[@Goofy8907]

8:00 it does sound defensive and salty I don't even care negatively about you being off on predictions, its fine I was hoping this be just a video on you analysing them, not being salty about some idiots that gave you s about it Because I enjoyed the predictions even If they were wrong partially, this not so much

[@lowpasslife]

People be mad over every little thing they can find

[@jacobwallace2920]

Reduce the gain on your mic and get either a cloudlifter or fethead if youre recording your audio through a DAW. Gain reduction by Joey Sturgis is excellent for balancing out the audio too If youre not recording that way, just speak quieter. If your mic clips you cant fix the distortion. If youre too quiet you can always adjust later Hope this helps!

[@NathanLikesChicken]

yeah I thought I fixed my audio, but its def worse than ever. appreciate the advice, I'll take a good look at it before recording again

[@antlerman7644]

​@@NathanLikesChickenwe love our humble chicken man 🤙

Leffen has only won 2 evos. Melee in 2018 and guilty gear strive in 2023.

[@NathanLikesChicken]

what a bum

[@takaquill]

LMAO this is the exact opposite of my prediction where I just knew Ursaluna would drop from OU sooner than later and people just, absolutely rejected the idea (I didn't watch the original tierlist vid sorry u_u sucks that people went so far with it)

[@darthhydreigon820]

And kn reddit people would downvote u and post "omg look guts facade calc" "look at its hit taking ability" without looking at anything else

[@takaquill]

@@darthhydreigon820 I didn't (still don't) actually use reddit but that's actually what every conversation about Ursaluna would boil down to LOL. Like yes it OHKOs Corviknight at +2 Tera Normal or whatever. Now I wish people thought critically for a second and wondered if that's going to come into play ever outside of a mind game - which Ursaluna has to rely on so often that it is essentially not a very good Pokémon imo

[@HIHI10091]

preamble ran much too long...but enjoyed the rest of the video!

[@Calpsotoma]

I would watch your videos more if you learned to adjust your audio better. It should peak at -8db and the majority of your audio should be -10-20db.

[@NathanLikesChicken]

yeah just a bad day for me audio quality wise. I'll fix it next time

[@pickles4128]

My day one tierlist was also incredibly dumb. I had Thundy-T in UBERS and Chien Pao remaining in OU 💀

[@tsuchinoko01]

Nathan I dont get why you felt the need to spend so much time of this video explaining yourself because some salty underage trolls tried to disrespect your initial post. Its completely normal to be wrong about some guesses and cool that you uploaded you first impression. But you shouldnt get insecure about it and let these angry kids live rent free in your head

[@vahahadziev]

Twitter should be destroyed 💀

[@chopinfanclub6672]

Cress at NU is an objectively awful guess, lmao

[@chopinfanclub6672]

zap and molt at RU is even worse holy god
