the new bulky Caly Shadow variant is so oppressive. that draining kiss recovery is insane. almost as insane as the Japan Nationals format lol

[@ScooteezyVGC]

Bulky Caly is very good atm

[@Grazzzzzel]

10:40 Ive been using the Dawn Wings-Necrozma team on the ladder, it’s soo much fun. I think people just have no idea what’s coming. But if you miss that Meteor Beam on an Incineroar it’s GGs lol

[@ScooteezyVGC]

Ye it's cool to see a mon get good success when it's usage is low, people aren't ready for what it's going to do

[@gabdex83]

Hey quick favour. When you show the pastes on screen can you zoom in so it's 3 on each side instead of 6 straight down? Would make it so much easier to follow especially for us watching on phones

[@ScooteezyVGC]

I was actually on the wrong scene for this video, but I don't believe if I zoom in, I can see all on the screen together, at least in my browser, but I'll definitely see what I can do

[@someonespc269]

15:10 especially nowadays with how big events are top 16 single elimination top cut should be standard

[@ScooteezyVGC]

100% you can't have a 900 play event cut to 8 players, expecially when you have players sitting at 12-3

[@killiankay55]

I honestly hate that you can take that exact fire water grass core and it will be good. It’s simple and honestly cheapens the game for me to know team building is this centralized.

[@ScooteezyVGC]

I agree that it's sucks it's everywhere, but they all have Such good MU into the restricteds, hopefully we see some development in the west

[@ecosx2618]

So build your team around it; as you can see from the results of the past few regionals there isn’t one team that is just dominating the rest of the field. Almost every restricted has by now picked up a win (obviously not counting Ho-Oh and solgaleo etc) so it’s over simplistic to say team building is just taking fire water grass and mashing buttons

[@michaeldeleon7477]

omg teams other than japans teams looks the same 😂😂 rilla incin urshi 😒

[@mikeoakley6783]

Lol

[@ScooteezyVGC]

The west love the FWG core

[@jbenn6338]

That blizzard kyogre doeee

[@diontemcclain19]

Bold of them to think Caly Shadow ever fell off. 😑. It was only tough because people were preparing for that mainly. They gave Caly a little wiggle room and BOOM. It reminds you why we prepped for it in the first place

[@ScooteezyVGC]

Still the goat

[@muggcat]

Your tea kettle is ready 25:24

[@ScooteezyVGC]

I have no idea what that could have been 😂

[@laxbeastmode]

Japanese players always have the coolest teams

[@ScooteezyVGC]

They always cook up the heat

[@arafzaman760]

Brian hands with AV does well at tanking special attacks The mon is so good that you don't need its ability,most people use it to punish miraidon teams Quark drive boosted wild charge hits like a truck

[@ScooteezyVGC]

It's a really good mon, cool to see it making a return

[@arafzaman760]

Do you think antonio would have won the game if -4 miraidon didn't crit his Incineroar

[@ScooteezyVGC]

I don't think I saw that game unfortunately

[@michaelkarim57]

A lot of closed team sheet gimmicks imo. The teams are obviously good but many of these picks probably won’t do as well at Worlds.
