#Facts

[@drakemyers4444]

Um, a few nominee. Tinkaton. Dragon/poison immunity, gigaton hammer. Great special defense. Glimmora, hazard setter, great special attack. Clodsire, tanky, unaware/water absorb. Espathra, speed boost/opportunist, great coverage

[@ProfessorTree]

All brilliant nominees, couldn’t agree more!

[@shadowraith10]

I would nominate Gholdengo. It's a Steel Ghost with very few weaknesses and is a special sweeper that is IMMUNE TO ALL STATUS MOVES. Now if you're willing to suffer evolving it from chest gimmieghoul, then you're rewarded with a high key strong contender. It even learns nasty plot to make itself even more threatening as stall status teams can't do much.

[@dfloriza]

I do think it can be statused from secondary effects of moves, but it's nothing a Covert Cloak wouldn't fix. Just a really great pokemon to have for the team

[@barbrothers2]

Gholdengo and Iron Hands! Both raid battle legends.

[@chetparker5821]

Good screw stall.

[@assordante2205]

OK but hear me out on this. Fire types 🔥 and ground, and ghost, and dark types. And bad speed and not amazing defenses. Yup, really busted and broken, right?

[@kevinmckendree8866]

@@Mattyv7 might be boring but can’t ignore a steel fairy dual typing. A little confused on why you said it was boring accounting this video is titled overpowered Pokémon so you saying it’s boring means it’s making the game easy and that’s why the game would be considered “it’s boring”

[@Mattyv7]

@@kevinmckendree8866 I absolutely acknowledge it’s power. When I refer to boring I am referring to the design of the character. I don’t like it. When you have dragons or other cute type Pokémon’s, why would you want a pink Smurf w a hammer? Obviously that’s my opinion. But I can’t play with a Pokémon thats gross

[@echoesvayne9790]

Go poppy

[@tristanethier7594]

Only thing that sucks about this new gen is that most of the pokemon are either ghost,fire or ice types, my entire teqm is weak to ground and i only noticed later in the game (clodsire, ceruledge, skeledirge, tinkaton, baxcalibur, and paradox tyranitar). I love the new pokemon but all the ones i found interesting ended up all sharing the same types

I noticed that as well.

yeah this gen is gonna be great for mono type nuzlockes😂😂

[@blastmole299]

What I really hate with Toedscruel is its ability Mycelium Might, it causes every single status moves has the last priority but will be unaffected by abilities, so you'll definitely get outsped if you want to setup, wasting it's rather high speed and Spore (it's the fastest pokemon that can learn spore)

[@jeffmiles4356]

yeah I used one on my play through and it can definitely be a little annoying but it’s decently bulky and with giga drain it can get lost HP back in a hurry after you use spore

[@Perpetuousdreamer92]

it's balanced

[@lenlimbo]

On the other hand it is one of the very few pokemon that an actually put Gholdengo to sleep.

[@guitar242465]

Houndstone and Gholdengo should have been on the list IMO. Houndstones Last respects is very nice when used as a last resort pokemon(providing they are not immune to ghost type attacks).

I used Kilowattrel and it's very good because it is SO fast and has a massive special attack stat. It can one hit KO a lot of pokemon if you know your opponent has a high defense and low special defense. BUT my Kilowattrels defense stat and special defense stat are pure garbage. It is basically a glass canon, if it doesnt KO in one hit and gets hit itself it dies very quicky.

[@Sakurasan2023]

True

[@M4tcha_]

One detail I think that you have missed on Armarouge and Ceruledge is their defensive stats, Armarouge being physically tanky special attacker means that it can counter most of physical attackers in the game as they usually have low special defense, while you also have the option to counter physical attacker with high special defense such as Gallade since it has psyshock in its movepool, its special weakness can be negated by using mystical fire which lowers the enemy special attack, or simply use calm mind. Ceruledge on the other hand has better special defense, very good when it comes to abusing special attackers/tanks with low physical defense such as Gardevoire and Florges.

[@shinyumbreon4109]

And add Weak armor as a hidden ability, ceruledge becomes a sweeper after on physical attack

[@piercemat331]

Ceruledge = Rabbid Edge + Pyrostar

[@thomasgotsch4441]

Iron hands and tinkaton. mixed with belly drum and drain punch is like the biggest cheat code. You can win any tera raid and there’s essentially a one shot and kill any battle. Then tinkatons only true weakness is poison

[@hazardsigns]

Isn't Tinkaton a duel steel type? It's immune to poison 🤔

[@chaoswingsu]

4:22 just find a weak normal type pokemon and spam rage fist no need to actually hit the move 20 times you only have to use it 20 times.

Tinkaton steal/ fairy I mean that typing is insane strong against dragon other fairy really really good for a lot of coverage good stats all around plus it's special move Gigaton Hammer

[@tanandalynch9441]

Unfortunately Cetitan is a Glass Canon, I used him on my main team for the game and even in snow and having ice body. He'd always get one shot by fire types, and most fire types are faster. Ice spinner is an amazing move. Finally a really good physical ice type move that doesn't have 90 or less accuracy

one of the most underrated pokemon which might just be better than every pokemon on this list which you missed is GLIMMORA I cannot stress on the fact that it was my team's absolute star - it is one of the best leads(hand over a focus sash for 4x ground weak) has great bulk and special attack stat rivalling the likes of gengar of all things . it is the hazards monster with stealth rock , grassy sheild , power gem and sludge wave as its best moveset with special attack evs

[@ProfessorTree]

Thank you for sharing this with me I’ll have to give it a try in my own team!

[@hazardsigns]

Same, was the star of my team as well! Lucked into one early on in a raid den (or whatever those are called this gen) and it is still with me in the post game. Bonus is it's ability that throws out toxic spikes whenever a move makes contact 👍🏻

[@auden-magnushjelseng3368]

How about Lucario? With ice punch, close combat and bullet punch, it covers grass, flying, dragon, ground, dark, ice, normal, rock, steel and fairy. At the same time, it’s only weak to fairy, flying and psychic

Anyways, Here's how to make cookies! Ingredients: 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature 3/4 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 2 large eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips Instructions: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may still look slightly undercooked, but they will continue to set as they cool. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage! Feel free to adjust the recipe to your preferences, such as adding nuts or using different types of chocolate chips. Happy baking!

With wide lens, there is a 100 percent with the first hit, 99 with the second and the rest I don't know. It gets 10x hits fairly regularly, o don't know the percentage but it feels like more than 50.

Another nominee is an endgame spoiler so do not read this if you need to finish this game still. The paradox pokemon Iron Hands. It naturally learns belly drum and has an astoundingly large attack stat already while also learning drain punch to recover the lost hp while being bulky all at once meaning it has a good chance of surviving long enough to do what it needs if not swept through immediately. Couple it with booster energy to bump its most prominent stat at battle start and you have a powerful fighter.
