This Is Why Veluza Is Better Than You Think

[@Tetsugen_]

12:58 Mimikyu: "please kill me, for christ's sake! im over here just, my necks hurts im im burnt I'm just having a rough time..." *The battle was cancelled.* _Mimikyu's neck snaps back_ Mimikyu: *"HOLD UP, REAL SHIT??"*

[@1NTEN7ION]

For real 🤣🙏

[@antonioscott5791]

😭😭 nah bc mimikyu got to excited about that RQ 😭

[@ZephyrBallard]

He was just being a lil dramatic

[@fabrizioart1928]

Good thing that's not its actual neck

[@angelmatesmolan]

It's so cursed that we have a pokemon that litterally shreds its own body

[@lilyangel7611]

N people eat the fillet

[@Nihonguy]

Im DYING to see this move in the anime, like how are they gonna deal with that for a kids show? Lol

[@briandigiovanni6159]

If you look closely, Veluza in the overworld use Fillet Away before rushing at you, which explains why they all move so fast.

[@nightmare348]

Veluza's definitely got Vikavolt Syndrome. Like, the Dex entries go on and on about how FAST Vikavolt is, and yet... It has an absolutely abyssmal base 43 Speed.

[@desubysnusnu]

The same way with decidueye having less speed than Meganium 😂

[@-libertyprimev1-902]

Some people surmised Vikavolt's low speed as a symptom of it being a railgun which takes time to charge... But then Archeludon came out which is a giant fûçking steel bridge/railgun yet is somehow faster than the flying bug railgun.

[@CottidaeSEA]

Vikavolt looks like it'd be really fast. 500 base stat is also kind of... shit. Considering it's one of my favorites from that generation, I just wish it was a bit better.

[@bentowers3614]

To be fair, most mentions of its speed all assume it is using Fillet Away.

[@seronimo__7735]

At least Veluza has a move that can skyrocket its speed. Escavalier and Vikavolt, on the other hand...

[@Clarksonnn]

The unsung and under appreciated Pokemon in the world always getting their flowers through Haydunn’s benevolence never fails to warm a cold heart ❤️

[@aquenture]

👏👏👏

[@OriginalSketch6494]

Dude this was a great match. Your opponent made a smart play with the Exeggutor to stop the Veluza sweep, but you conserved your resources really well against those big threats to lock down the endgame. Also, Pikaboo is a perfect nickname

[@Wicked_Weavile0808]

"Got my wooden balls out, call me George Washington"... what version of the story were you told?

[@DSpiritwolf]

Gotta respect the eggecutor protect strat, they put trust on the roll and it worked out for them.

[@KLIXORthe]

Harvest sitrus protect heals have a 79% chance of working, assuming you are willing to go for a double protect if need be. So its not as unreliable of a strat as it may seem.

[@rchoung34]

I'm sure everyone had the same first experience in the routes where these guys are. You start from the shore as you look at the 2 FPS overworld and then like 10 of these assholes suddenly zoom at you and now you have PTSD looking for anything in the water.

[@fish2759]

I literally JUST got done watching a video mentioning Veluza is bad…then I see this gem of a video drop…never change Haydunn, never change Congrats on the growth lately, I hope you continue to crush it!

[@tehjefey]

Any one person who says a mon is bad and then gets proven wrong, is themselves projecting their own trash skill level.

It really depends. Trash or not is subjective to what format you play in. ​@@tehjefey

I love meta defying teams. If I can't win with something wacky and unexpected then I'm not satisfied. Get wacky and throw them off their game.

Veluza being the happiest fish in the lake. Nice to see it get some love.

[@viosworld]

veluza was great but honestly i loved the entirety of this team, full of mons i love but don't see much use, love to see it

[@naomiseadragon2676]

The plays you were making with veluza versus raging bolt was just incredible! Well done Hayden!

[@AlfieriV]

I love gimmicky Pokémon like this because they're intentionally designed to use a move or ability that takes them from average to threatening.

[@kelvinsomnia]

That second substitute prediction was crazy, 2 hp and a beanie baby is all we need

[@zema9401]

Substitute takes 25% and Sitrus heals 25%. It wasnt a prediction

[@kelvinsomnia]

@@zema9401 He predicted the thunderclap. If raging bolt had used thunderbolt, the sub is immediately broken, and then he just dies to the next thundeclap before he can do any damage.

I was wondering why Passimian looks so huge. Bro is 6' 7" and 180+ pounds. Bah gawd. Regirock is only 5' 7" but 500lbs, for random reference

[@Kuroh49]

I use the funny Lansat Berry on my Veluza for the 100% crit rate. It might not be optimal, but it's enjoyable.

Is it just me, or does Bastiodon’s cry sound like a Thwomp from Mario?

personally i like to think of the speed stat in pokemon more like reaction time or like how fast they could move in a single burst.

Hey Haydunn i really love your videos, your voice your jokes and in general what you do, sending much love. I'm thinking about becoming a channel member but im not sure about it, how often are exclusive videos coming? How many are there right now? I would like to know lol

Hey Haydun, been watching your content for awhile, always love a competitive look at each and every pokemon, giving each a chance to shine ^w^. Can I ask how you you do you commentary over your gameplay footage, do you use obs or audacity, or something else? Also, one ladt thing, how did you make your amazing master ball transition intro, been struggling to figure how you made it. Sorry if my questions bother you, im an aspiring creator and I just want to learn from the best is all. Thank you for your brilliant content and take care. :3

[@Haydunn]

I record it with a capture card in OBS, then just narrate the video in adobe premiere. The intro is made by a professional 3D motion designer

Im glad as usual you make it work but this pokemon is soo hard to use problem its too frail and it’s not even the fastest fillet away aside

I think that Fillet Away takes away too much HP for how bulky Veluza is. If it had base 100 in all of its defensive stats maybe half HP would be okay, but with its inability to take hits as it already is it probably should take a quarter

[@CvbXMinus]

Veluza goes the speed of light, but it's only 70 speed stat which makes 70 speed VERY fast...?

[@Scoozi.Art.Hawaii]

Haydunn is da man

[@Pokexpialidocious-hp3so]

I feel they have nerfed Geomancy too much. It's like using Quiver Dance twice. Fillet Away halves HP and gets similarly (attack instead of sp.def). Geomancy should raise three stages.
