This Vikavolt Rain Room Team is Shockingly Strong in VGC Reg H

[@benzoFE88]

That game 8 team was the most outta pocket team I’ve seen in a while lmao

James' speechless reaction was hilarious.😂

[@LightshaperQ]

Teeter Dance is hilarious 😂

“Thats one way to play pokemon”

[@lawfty1]

You've been cranking out videos lately, thanks for the great content!

[@zashinunes8191]

5:15 That second turn of the first battle was very, very satisfying to watch, 200QI move there, a lot of people indeed would've rage quit after being read like that That's one of the few reasons I really like to watch you, one of the best Pokémon players I know

[@Cigmacica]

To be fair, there’s not a lot of vikavolts and most of them run specs, however the oponent most definitively should have covered the possibility of a non-specs one

[@zashinunes8191]

@@Cigmacica For sure, was hard to see that coming

[@Shiradrenaline]

Vikavolt!! Vik yeah!! I love all the more obscure mons coming out of the woodwork in reg H. Electric and Fairy mons in particular are rare and so we get all sorts of fun oddballs.

[@LightshaperQ]

I’m so glad that someone love Bronzong as much as me

[@skimaskedabi]

One of my favorite mons to use too lol

[@EdenPorterMusic]

assuming the teamsheet is correct and the Bronzong is Relaxed 4 SpD: +1 252+ SpA Tera-Electric Archaludon Electro Shot vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Bronzong: 156-184 (89.6 - 105.7%) -- 37.5% chance to OHKO

[@shelmerVGC]

You forgot the Choice Specs on Archaludon

[@EdenPorterMusic]

@@shelmerVGC We don't know that it had specs, he was only saying that it had specs because it OHKOed Bronzong, but it doesn't actually need that to OHKO. Yes, it *probably* had specs given the rest of the game, but it wasn't a safe assumption.

[@JRG333]

That song hit at 57:00 perfectly haha

[@breakfast6723]

Specs tera ground Vikavolt was sick for me in reg f, ohkos Caly ice with bug buzz, kyogre with Thunderbolt, and miraidon with Tera blast and underspeeds almost everything in TR

[@incredibledn]

love the longer videos!

[@Midwest_ern]

Really cool watching you explore all of the different possibly viable electric type Pokemon. Would love to see Raichu featured at some point.

[@Chwarzerd]

Specs archaludon moment

[@reesemakespeace]

tsareena CLEAREDDDD.

[@heitorprevitalli3182]

57:05 His Flabber got gasted

[@valhallakombi7239]

It was actually pretty weird that first game choice specs Arch wasn't sturdy. Seemed like a super missed opportunity for an uber offensive version.

[@JMeloMan7]

that last battle was unhinged

[@dirtysprite3]

I don't think it has to be specs when you account for the +1 boost +1 252+ SpA Tera Electric Archaludon Electro Shot vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Bronzong: 156-184 (89.6 - 105.7%) -- 37.5% chance to OHKO

[@valhallakombi7239]

+ That Arch wasn't sturdy. Other ability doesn't make sense on hyper offense Arch

[@Hi_Im_Pangas]

- Rain - Trick Room - Vikavolt - Basculegion James, why are you leaking my NAIC 2025 team like this?!?

[@willscharnagl6909]

did you consider anything other than Tera blast (earth power/psychic) on politoed for some extra coverage?

[@jeffreyabercrombie8136]

So funny to just watch your facial expressions through the second turn that final game

[@VGCBenji]

I poured one out for your Bronzong in g2… bad day to be a Bronzong 😢

[@trick6pokemon624]

Kitakami prologue team with archaludon? Maybe Blueberry prologue?

[@jenikabartlett9396]

That last game felt like getting bullied by a clown

[@BerryHunter]

A very evil one, i was laughing out loud seeing that profane team

[@just_a_folk95]

Wouldn't Mental Herb be a good item for that Bronzong? I feel like you're too vulnerable to Taunt, and TR enables 3 of your mons (+Bronzong itself, who will later outspeed any non-prankster taunt). Spore is a problem ofc but still.

[@scottcrysel]

I played against a similar team today. Love the creativity in the early going so far

[@SolarManOmega]

The mental damage inflicted Game 1 Turn 2, damn 😮

[@dreo149]

Do I hear the sword and shield gym theme? Haha didnt know that was available?

[@jannesdees7250]

pretty sure he just adds it

[@rashawn3718]

I kinda like throat spray with bug buzz more on vikavolt ngl

[@xdferocious6016]

Shiny Psyduck team when?

[@SleepPara]

Why no Thunder on a Rain team?

[@eamk887]

Probably because this isn't a full-on rain team, rather it's a team that has rain as an option. Thus, using Thunder doesn't really work, since you will not bring rain into all your matches. Like, if you want to bring Vikavolt with Thunder but not Politoed, you're kinda screwed.

[@PokemonplayerVGC]

And plus thunder doesn't benefit from rain

[@Midwest_ern]

@@PokemonplayerVGC Yes it does. It never misses in rain.

[@PokemonplayerVGC]

@Midwest_ern well thanks for the correction,I only been playing vgc for like a year in a half and hardly ever see that mice bein used besides in kyogre.just thought it got lucky everything I was hit by it

[@duckymomo7935]

why muddy water and water weather ball

[@wEakling1918]

Spread move and single target damage, with specs it makes sense to have access to both

[@ryantheron5297]

Also, weather ball is 100% accurate, muddy water is not.

[@JLinusVanPelt]

Game 6 was a HUGE flop for the other guy, don't know what his game plan was. It was super free to just do that team's setup

[@jonathashenrique1355]

Teeter dance batlle as very fun lol😂

[@joeowen2286]

How the hell do you crank out so much good content

[@briansloan1713]

Love it

[@jamesaditya5254]

That salty disconnect from the tera electric arch is so satisfying. Dude had the audacity to lock in electroshot without clearing the field from electric resist and immune mons first. I love it when we're still in the "preview" stage of the regulation since playing in the casual ladder means the range of team building philosophies and player skill level means more cool teams and more salty disconnects

[@valhallakombi7239]

Blud that Arch wasn't sturdy, it was 99% not specs and the player made a mistake not clicking +3 electro shot into James's arch for huge damage.

[@xxGaslight]

Casual battles?? Where’s the ranked

[@Cigmacica]

It litteraly comes out in 2 days

[@Connor_Kirkpatrick]

GOAT VIKAVOLT 🗣️🔥🔥

[@DJ-0]

Randomly an extra long video

[@corygaston4309]

i don't know how much i like leftovers on archaludon since the opponent will be able to tell it isn't assault vest just by seeing leftovers activate at the end of a turn

[@umbreoneyes]

Omg it is sooo refreshing to see all these cool teams WITHOUT ANY LEGENDARIES!! Legendary? More like Leg And Dairy!!! Really nice snipe on the Gyardos btw

[@SleepPara]

Teeter Dance Tsareena…

[@Saintketju]

Why i see pokemons that are not allowed on ranked battle or are all pokemons allowed on ranked. i dont understand this shit

[@Amezye]

I don't get the last game, like what happend here lmao, what Item had Tsareena???

[@ShadowGamingXxx]

How the FUCK did gholdengo get PARALIZED at 23:00 when it's ability good as gold ability stops it from being affected from all status effects???

[@ssswag]

all status moves, so can get statused from secondary effects on tbolt

[@ShadowGamingXxx]

@ssswag bullshit. Fire type pokemon can't get burned from secondary effects. Electric type pokemon can't get paralyzed from secondary effects. That reasoning doesn't make sense considering secondary effects don't work in other scenarios

[@eamk887]

Good As Gold doesn't state the pokemon is immune to status *effects*, it states that it's immune to status *moves*.

[@ShadowGamingXxx]

Electric type pokemon can't get paralyzed though. So you're saying Electric type moves can cause paralysis even though Electric type pokemon have an ability that makes them immune??
