Wow, that contrary shell smash shuckle sweep was really something. Better luck next time my dude.

[@Andrei-wj7hg]

contrary shell smash 💀💀💀

[@dancingllama2392]

I mean, if the Groudon didn't hit that fissure, then he would have been in a better position. Tough break.

[@daunderrated3106]

​@@Andrei-wj7hgdouble defense boost duh

[@alysondavy2485]

​@@Andrei-wj7hg It's actually a pretty regular set for Shuckle since he's already pretty weak offensively and slow, so it just makes his def and spdef even higher to the point that only toxic or other statuses kill him.

[@bog7138]

damn, you got my hope up for a minute.

[@inmanis2924]

brooo that lum shuckle was an insane mindgame dude knows everyone has taunt, sees shuckle and knows it’s gonna sticky web, assumes mental herb due to taunt prevalence, and assumes next bet would be to status it, so went lum. crazy

[@inmanis2924]

honestly lowkey sus the more i watch lol lum shuckle and sleep talk xern? surf airlick rayquaza? half their team is tailor built against yours lol

[@dancingllama2392]

​@@inmanis2924I don't think so. I mean if you look at it, his xern also has sleep talk. And he mentioned how Rayquaza surf was a meta development, not something the opponent made just for this game. I think it's just he freezai was playing a more meta team, so therefore some stuff would be counted by the anti-meta techs of the opponent. This isn't like the double kick Terrakion senario.

[@lighting7508]

it honestly is kinda off@@inmanis2924

[@tempestgreen1125]

Also assuming specs xern from how much that moonblast did, 3 attack sleep talk is considered optimal for exactly this kind of situation

[@Willibaz-pz1vi]

I gotta agree with dancing llama here. Thats just how a meta works. Initally something strong gets discovered and used because its strong, in this case that would for example be primal groudon. Because of its popularity, counters to the initial meta get discovered, in this case, air lock surf rayquaza , or something like earthquake primal kyogre (and yes this is actually something people sometimes run, because of kyogres 150 base attack and groudons new ground weakness). This is especially true in ubers, where banning something is very rare.

[@theultimatepielord8697]

Gravity to make grounded pokes hit by Webs is baller as hell.

[@vecinexrip]

you mean cringe

[@davidh6868]

I never play singles but final gambit on shuckle is so funny. That gravity was also so smart, he knew outspeeding the mence for the next five turns was so important

[@ThePenisMan]

Shuckle’s only purpose is sticky web and final gambit is probably gonna be doing more than a normal attack anyways, might as well

[@sweats1486]

Wow, that helping hand boosted metronome boosted 5th rollout from their +6 shuckle after power trick against your -6 level 1 yanma was insane. Crazy to see the maximum amount of damage possible in ubers

[@francescomalguzzi2123]

Isn't it Ledyba?

[@dominicpirola8240]

That's only like 10 damage of hp...

[@aidenbull7776]

​@francescomalguzzi2123 I thought it waa combee

[@Blade.5786]

That Gravity was insane.

[@Kmn483]

I thought that crit on Arceus was gg. Nice come back!

[@telacrap]

RestTalk Xern is quite a set, also that crit Espeed into Xern living on 1 hp 💥💥💥

[@elijahfunk2710]

Lol I thought this was a joke 🤣

[@mobi2289]

Situations like these is why I like taunt+magic coat on deoxys-s. If you suspect they have mental herb, magic coat still covers most options. If you are lucky, they try to taunt you and you reflect it, so if they have the herb, it gets used for free.

[@Kmn483]

Magic coat is crazy pred reliant so I'd never use it, but that's such a clutch move when it works.

[@jorgeespino2900]

The way I gasped to those crits 😂

[@eumesmo7044]

okay its a Shuckle, have my respect already

[@ThePenisMan]

Shuckle is niche but it absolutely deserves its spot in Ubers, sticky web is just that good there I don’t think it’s the best sticky web setter but it’s still not unheard of and will get serious usage

[@meklpeckle1936]

shuckle is actually a very strong pokemon in gen 6 ubers

[@orionpax8382]

Adding some lines for a Spoiler warning about 12:24 . . . . . . . . Your Mega Salamence has a 50% chance to KO the standard Xerneas EV spread after stealth rock chip. 252+ Atk Aerilate Salamence-Mega Double-Edge vs. 184 HP / 28 Def Xerneas: 307-363 (69.9 - 82.6%) -- 50% chance to OHKO The crit on Primal Groudon may have mattered depending on the opponent's actual Xerneas EV spread

[@freestyle64nfsw]

It's scarf xern so probably not that bulky. If they hit moonblast as they wake up they'd win

[@orionpax8382]

@@freestyle64nfsw Good catch, I missed the scarf. Mega Salamence should always get the KO then. 252+ Atk Aerilate Salamence-Mega Double-Edge vs. 0 HP / 32 Def Xerneas: 306-361 (77.8 - 91.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Crit revenge W Wp

[@CountGremlin]

Gravity plus Sticky Web is cool combo- would have never thought to use both in Showdown let alone in an Ubers tournament.

[@logans4789]

Shuckle in ubers 🔥🔥

[@SPZ-gv2on]

It's a top mon in gen 6 ubers. Sticky web is almost impossible to remove and enables a lot of very threatening pokemon.

[@JoseCastro-kn3od]

First time the gym battle theme suits the battle. It was hard

Unlucky losing to gravity + fissure shuckle, you got got, ggs

[@Magikarpador]

man i remember knowing someone named shuckle4ubers back in the Pokémon Lab days. Wonder how she's doing...

[@jdie6616]

Man I know that guys pissed. His entire team was tailored to counter you and he even got a nasty crit but still lost lol

[@_Xenux]

Why not swords dance on turn 8? The shuckle swap in was obvious no?

[@percsie3072]

Surf rayquaza in gen 9 Ubers is so funny, makes sense but still funny

[@Rinky]

very cool. thanks for posting

[@Shuckleking87]

Gooo Shuckle!

[@stevencitouwu]

That rollout shuckle was the goat

[@rotem6033]

Off topic, Freezai which region are you from in India?

[@Omar_ZX]

Using shuckle in ubers is more wild than cincinno being good in gen 9

[@cryochick9044]

Shuckle is almost always neiche in ubers

[@Kmn483]

Nah, shuckle is relatively common in ubers. Speed control is everything and it has built in sturdy so it beats Smeargle

[@michaelk9080]

Freezai never says glhf? Curious.

Satisfying ass game

[@dancingllama2392]

Can someone explain why deoxys has skill swap? What is that for?

[@elmacho1336]

I'm not exactly an Ubers player but from what I've seen it's probably for mega gengar. Taking away shadow tag from it basically removes the entire threat behind the Pokémon.

[@cryochick9044]

​@@elmacho1336until it swaps. But this does allow you to swap out

[@pan_cakes1124]

Mega sableye and sometimes mega diancie is used both have magic bounce

[@dancingllama2392]

@@pan_cakes1124 that makes sense. Thanks

[@SPZ-gv2on]

​@@elmacho1336It's not. You would just psycho boost mega gengar. It's purely to remove magic bounce as getting up stealth rock is vital for offensive teams in gen 6 ubers.
