The thumbnails are s tier

[@Schmiduku]

I read it in Carls voice

[@jcdeton72]

Its funny how Kricketune is only somewhat viable when everyone else is 15 to 20 levels lower than them xD

[@SuperNintendawg]

And even then it's basically just because it has the best hazard in the game that only like 4 other mons get.

[@floofzykitty5072]

16:14 There's nothing Falinks can do to "read" the Protect. Not everyone knows that No Retreat can only be used while not affected by the condition "No Retreat", so they can only attack after using it.

[@remysmets]

20:10 Dondozo’s unaware ignores the opponent’s stat changes, not their own

[@AveragePearEnjoyer]

Yeah, otherwise we would be seeing a lot more overheat skeledirges and a lot fewer curse dozos

[@Dylxan327]

Nathan has inspired me to put pride into my thumbnail game, but I know I’ll never compare

[@Nako3]

[@Nako3]

If you could earn money by doing thumbnails you would be a millionaire!

[@serpentjoeviijr.5825]

sis why are you everywhere!

[@Nako3]

@@serpentjoeviijr.5825 why arent you?

[@soooslaaal8204]

Just so you know, unaware does take into account stat changes in the pokemon that has unaware, that's why lumina crash 2hkod

[@jamietuohy4523]

100% came because of the thumbnail but stayed for the high quality commentary Nathan

[@froggy-man]

this format does a number on my blood pressure

[@Rayan01012]

Nathan when will we get Nathanlikescheese again (aka streams)?

[@StepBaum]

The thumbnail is god tier. Made me laugh so hard lmao. Also fun live!

[@DonFergiee]

Thumbnail goated

[@farfetchdstan]

Hope the sixers get some good stuff in exchange for Harden, great vid as always Nathan.

[@conorm5094]

Next mono team has to be water with sub sweeper pelipper, battle bond greninja, and golisopod with no first impression

[@soapy5613]

BABE WAKE UP NATHAN POSTED A RAND BATS VID

[@anusthing]

Some of the level scaling is very questionable. I can't remember which Pokemon it was, I think salamence, but it was level 76-77... Isnt salamence like RU/uu? Meanwhile, you got level 80+ mons that are OU. I don't fully understand it

[@remysmets]

I think random battles mon levels are balanced around their win rate, not the tier they are in

[@floofzykitty5072]

It’s partially based on tier (when a mon is first introduced). It is adjusted later based on win rate.

[@aruihe]

14:25 Probably doesn't show unresolved matches, since the last one was closed prematurely.

[@alfredsupersauce]

Have they gotten rid of Luvdisc yet? Even at lvl 100 it still does not function.

[@Kjarlo]

I really love your content🫰🏻

[@evankalis]

Day 6 of asking you to run a mono 4x ice weak team. Feel free to pick the format :)

[@Jotharo-jq1qk]

Man bird up and please give me some mono teams in the description

[@ardorscourt7177]

Huzzah I’m early

[@cata9223]

Give us another updated wallbreaker video and a maybe even stall breaker video considering the meta is extremely fat thickness. The meta is fat to handle the problem of priority.

[@Mijzelffan]

I feel like using calcdex is really antithetical to the spirit of blitz battles
