Hayden just casually dropping hilarious one-liners throughout the match is exactly why I’m still subbed to him.

[@corystevens9604]

His jokes are funny 😂

[@no..2756]

His casual tone and the unexpected timing make his jokes the best

[@DefinitelyNotAFerret]

We need a compilation

[@vipersnipes101]

I don’t usually like or comment on videos but you’re exactly right, his one liners make the videos 😂😂

[@nolongeraperson]

"Drill em with these 3 heads.. pause"

[@realFortyOne]

I used to watch Haydunn like 9 years ago during a tough time in my life. I've recently refound him during a great time in my life and it just feels awesome. Glad you're still here man!

@joeybencurson stop treat people the way you want to be. Treated cause you don't know how to lose a loved one or go through a tough time karma will bite

[@TaiWind]

do you think Dodrio's left and right heads get jealous when they terastalize and only the middle head gets a cool hat?

[@HeavyWalrus2]

We need a petition for multi headed pokemon to get tiny jewel crowns for their secondary heads.

[@tristiancook5821]

​@@HeavyWalrus2 Or just 3 really tiny terra hats

[@gamertwo6263]

[@jaythephoenix]

Only the middle one gets neck pain too tho.

[@zacmayes2802]

I remember reading an article about someone complaining about the new Pokemon Go dugtrio costume because the other heads didn't have a top hat too. It was like a letter where it was dugtrio who was writing it. Funny af honestly

[@LeG3nDViRaL]

How are you constantly able to come up with incredibly wild sets that make bad mons FULL threats. It’s incredible.

[@KitDoctor]

Dodrio deserves a golden broom award for that sweep

[@biakuya6419]

Flail literally had 337.5 base power against the tera steel blastoise, this thing hits like a fkin truck.

[@Tetsugen_]

This would pair well with your Indeedee psychic terrain to block priority. Could probably do the same with Hawlucha but go for reversal instead, liechi berry + unburden.

[@ItsMeBliz]

I do this with hitmonlee, plus fake out as first move for extra chip damage. If I don't think reversal will kill I can always gamble a sucker punch too. Hitmonlee @ Liechi Berry Level: 100 Adamant Nature Ability: Unburden EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe - Reversal - Fake Out - Endure - Sucker Punch

[@ronnycrawf2441]

You’d have to Tera the dodrio every time to be immune to prio so it’s not as flexible but still works

[@nolongeraperson]

@@ronnycrawf2441 This. A ton of people forget that terrain effects only work on grounded Pokémon. Flying types and Levitate Pokemon are unaffected by terrain.

[@Tetsugen_]

@@nolongeraperson Oh damn I didn't knew that. I know Hawlucha's normally pop psychic seeds so I thought the trigger acted the same.

[@BuckysKnifeFlip]

That would actually be a sick mono normal doubles team. Support Indeedee and Flail Dodrio.

[@rogueisded]

I’ve been using dodrio to pretty significant success running this set: Tailwind, Drill Peck, Drill Run and Quick Attack. 252 ATK and Speed, life orb. It catches people off guard with how easy it can set up Tailwind and the surprising amount of damage it can deal too. I’ve had a lot of fun using it, and would recommend!

[@bluespy4050]

Always felt bad for dodrio. Could you imagine how much that poor that thing has to eat to support three brains?

[@Vektor480]

That's the trick, 3 bird brains doesn't even account for 1 mammal brain. They literally share the same braincell

[@lordmonarch2995]

They don’t each head has its own brain and that’s not all I think the dex also says it has three stomachs, hearts and pairs of lungs.

[@JamesSmith-tk2pb]

Don't look to hard into it, its literally a pokemon created for little kids 🥴

[@Tungdil_01]

They certainly need lots of carbohydrates

[@youtubealt243]

That’s why it has 3 mouths and lightning fast speed

[@bc8350]

Man I started watching you back during gen 4 but stopped playing pokemon for a while and started again with gen 9. Great to see you are still making the same awesome vids homie

[@Mischievous_Moth]

Honestly I just love listening to your encyclopedic knowledge of the game. I swear you have the stats of every pokemon (Or just every meta pokemon) memorized.

[@marlonknockaert3233]

This reminds me, I used to run this substitute tangled feet set with the confusion berry and swords dance/thrash, just a whacky but pretty good set

[@hydr0hydr0]

"i Flail, you FAIL" absolute birdie unit.

[@Ceireavne]

Hayden I'm really glad that you still have the same passion and still bring as much fun doing this as you used to... I broke up with gamefreak and pokemon a while ago, but you really remind me of the good days back in gen 4 & 5, in a very good way. It's been a pleasure to watch!

[@fish2759]

I love Dodrio, it’s so cool to see it getting some use!

[@SirGengarGaming]

I’ve been watching Haydunn ever since the HGSS nuzlocke days and i can confidently say his creativity and appreciation for the game is THE most enjoyable poke-content to watch

[@kelvinsomnia]

As always, fantastic video! I’ve always loved dodrio. Back in yellow version, I had a pikachu, dodrio, and butterfree that all became super overleveled, and I’d just go through the elite four again and again using only those three.

[@Fitzroy_Fox]

Always had a soft spot for Dodrio. So happy to see the Triple Birb sweeping a team! 🥰

[@InspiringMyPeople]

It’s basic when you think about it but it’s so easy to overlook how you can give mid Pokémon giant power boosts

[@Phantom742-f6i]

The terra designs are not great, but it’s such a good mechanic that really increases the viability of almost every Pokémon. This is not my favorite gimmick, but it probably is the healthiest one so far for pvp.

[@gioc2512]

Honestly I'm suprised they haven't buffed more Kanto and Johto Pokémon stats. Dodrio used to be known as one of the fastest Pokémon but it gets outsped by a lot of stuff these days

[@viniciusbarbosa5542]

Nice vid as always Haydunn! I'm so happy to see you on Joey draft league, excited to watch you battle there!

[@Neffariousnyc]

I absolutely LOVE when Haydunn posts videos where he makes mistakes or gets unlucky and still pulls out the W. It's so encouraging.

[@radishmoomoo2471]

Hayydun, FSG and Jaiden animations are the whole trinity of pokemon content for me. The way they narrate is top tier

[@ChrisMcGiggity]

That sweep was crazy and so satisfying to watch! Great video as always haydunn, keep up the great work!

[@Devmac89]

I swear I been binging these videos since I found your channel. I always played every game casually never did WiFi battles but I’m gonna try these builds and see how good I am.

[@Davey647Returns]

I’ve been playing since Gen 2 and I’ve never once used Dodrio before, and it has become one of my favorite team members for this DLC. I use it as my Doubles suicide-lead sweeper/support. Stats invested in Sp Def and Speed holding a weakness policy. -Fast enough to outspeed probably 85% of the Pokémon in the game -Feather Dance to lower opponent attack by 2 stages hopefully before the opponent even attacks and fully invested in special defense to hopefully survive a special move so it can be just bulky enough to survive a single super effective hit, boosting the weakness policy which is basically a free sword stance on top of a already 110 attack in a single turn while most likely being the fastest thing on the field -Drill Peck just being a solid 80 base power STAB flying move and having flying, grass, and bug coverage. Acrobatics also works, but I'd rather have an 80bp move rather than a 60bp and hoping the Weakness Policy pops to double it. -Low kick covering for normal, and two of Dodrio’s weaknesses being rock and ice. Low Kick’s base power is based on weight, so as long as the opponent is over 110 pounds, which the majority of fully evolved competitive Pokémon are, it’s at least 80 Base power. -Tailwind as a last resort if I know Dodrio is going down this turn just as a general boost to my team. This thing is fast and frail, so I expect this thing to go die and can usually tell when that’s about to happen-so either I’m gonna get one good benefit and die, or I’m going to survive, get really lucky, and turn this into a frenzy until it finally goes down. I’m curious what you guys think, most people have ranked Dodrio fairly low for usage, but I think this set is great. Again, this is specifically built for doubles. I don’t see this thing working in singles with this build.

[@haruhirogrimgar6047]

Dodrio has always been my favourite flying type to use. Glad to see it getting some love.

[@fpsRhythm]

Ted Mosby told Barney, "I'm getting my flail."

[@bgilbert785]

Love seeing your vids again! I caught a random shiny Klawf and have basically used this same Endure/Flail set on him but he also gets the anger shell boost. Love my dumb boi

[@Bludgeoned2DEATH2]

The double match videos have been helping I see, you're almost at 310K after being hard stuck at like 290k for a bit. Lets go, Hayden! 💪

[@AllezlesBleus2018]

Love your videos dude. Been watching since I was a teenager in the early 2010s.

[@philippefutureboy7348]

I want more of Dodrio! The use of Endure is such a surprise, really entertaining to watch!

[@Chunes3]

I like that it serves as a poor man's protect once you're already at 1 hp. Pretty cool.

[@DarkShaman667]

My man is out here with that helicopter bird, body-bagging people!

[@DSpiritwolf]

That turnaround was actually nuts. That guy must of been shooked.

[@nolongeraperson]

I was a little shocked myself. Pachirisu? Oh damn here comes quick attack..no.. okay.. but he definitely has mach punch on Inferna-.. oh.. nope that's GG I guess!

[@taiyoutenshi5921]

I'd started watching you a few weeks back, but I'm leaving this comment cuz I think I ran into you in a random 6 star raid last night XD. I don't do online battles at all but I like building and using weird and underused pokemon for tera raids so I vibed with your content immediately

[@NStar9]

Thank you so much for this ima definitely use this on my doubles team and see how it goes, but you’re literally my Pokémon strategy plug 💀 I been messing people up with your combos but also mixing other old combos I know about

[@mel_mudkip23]

Good luck in s2 of SPL !just realized I’ve been watching your vids for months and wasn’t subscribed lol.

[@torchilicho]

I love dodrio! In yellow (my first pokemon game), i named my doduo “double header” before i knew it evolved and i felt like a doofus when it did lol. Edit: double header has too many characters in yellow, i probably shortened it in some way.

[@BLARGHINATOR]

'Double Header' has too many characters for the nickname slot in pokémon yellow?

@@Just.Arguinglol i love the name

[@lordmonarch2995]

Dodrio was also better than Pidgeot, because of Drill Peck and tri attack and it had a higher speed stat.

[@Blackheartgamer1]

Sucks how they took away high jump kick from Dodrio, was hoping for more buffs. If anything i wish its abilities got updated. Run away -> immune to trapping moves and abilities, early bird -> Speed boost, Tangled feet -> reduce the chance to damage itself. For attacks maybe give it more kicking moves: double kick, triple kick, blaze kick, triple axel…

[@nolongeraperson]

It's kinda crazy that they took Hi Jump Kick away from every non-fighting Pokémon except Tsareena.

[@SuperDanMan11100]

Even Jump Kick would be somewhat nice for Dodrio to have.

[@nolongeraperson]

@@SuperDanMan11100 Which has been removed from the game entirely. 😂 Between Jump Kick and Drill Run, I would still choose Drill Run. Both moves cover for Rock/Steel anyway but Drill Run also hits another weakness in Electric, along with it's other coverage options. All Jump Kick would hit extra would be Darks and Normals, which I feel the Flying/Normal STAB attacks will cover for anyway... without that nasty 1/2 damage from missing or the opponent using one of the many protect moves 😬

[@ShinyHuntersGuild]

I wish the left and right heads had a tiny Tera crown on them when Terastalized 😂 Great match!

[@sharpiefumes]

Hardest dodrio popoff ever I would have surrendered when that blastoise hit the rapid spin

I use this exact strat on hitmonlee with unburden. Set spikes with skarmory, switch to hitmonlee then endure and it not only pops my berry for +1 atk but I get the spd boost too, it's like a free dragon dance. Use fake out first to flinch and for extra chip combining with the spikes, and then tera fighting reversal for the tidy up, not always guaranteed depending on typing but it can be fun.

[@nolongeraperson]

My dude, he has a Hitmonlee video recently AND his older generation videos has Hitmonlee running amok using that very strategy. 😂

[@ItsMeBliz]

@@nolongeraperson ah thanks for the heads up I'd not seen it. I never did battles before only pve so really new to it all.

Ever thought of hattrem? It's 10 points faster than hatterene and can use Eviolite! I normally run calm mind protect nuzzle and draining kiss. This is good for very slow pokemon that hatterene would not outspeed, but those 10 extra speed points might just help! 🎉

Fyi, on your Hitmonchan set.. Punching glove, does not work with iron first ability. The effects sadly don't stack. With iron first, they are more or less a worse version of protective pads. With how you seem to use it, AV would be a much more useful item for you to run on it.
