Power Swap Reuniclus Makes Salty Tryhard Cry and Rage 😡

[@WeedleTwineedle]

Hope you all enjoyed this one, think I genuinely built a decent Ho-Oh team. Power swap wasn't even intended to be used the way it was in this video, was meant to be used reset dialga/ho-oh's offensive stats but goes to show power swap is a super slept on move! Here is the pokemon movesets if y'all are interested Reuniclus @ Grassy Seed Ability: Magic Guard Level: 50 EVs: 244 HP / 68 Def / 196 SpD Sassy Nature IVs: 0 Atk / 2 Spe - Skill Swap - Trick Room - Psychic - Power Swap Ho-Oh @ Life Orb Ability: Regenerator Level: 50 EVs: 220 HP / 76 Atk / 204 Def / 4 SpD / 4 Spe Adamant Nature - Brave Bird - Sacred Fire - Life Dew - Helping Hand Dialga @ Weakness Policy Ability: Pressure Level: 50 EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Steel Beam - Draco Meteor - Trick Room - Earth Power Rillaboom-Gmax @ Assault Vest Ability: Grassy Surge Level: 50 EVs: 172 HP / 252 Atk / 84 SpD Adamant Nature - Fake Out - Grassy Glide - U-turn - Bulldoze Gastrodon @ Leftovers Ability: Storm Drain Level: 50 EVs: 188 HP / 172 Def / 148 SpD Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe - Ice Beam - Earth Power - Yawn - Protect Incineroar (M) @ Shuca Berry Ability: Intimidate Level: 50 EVs: 252 HP / 20 Def / 236 SpD Careful Nature - Throat Chop - Flare Blitz - Fake Out - Parting Shot

nice strat

[@ezraday8374]

you really slayed with this team 🤩🤩 go off sis

'Incineroar (M)' 💀💀💀

[@Whodjathink]

A nice unintended use then, even better! 👏

[@WeedleTwineedle]

@@amethyst6531 that's the most important tech of the team and glad you noticed

[@amberhernandez]

Reuniclus was the puppet master the entire time. It was there every time, swapping abilities around, pulling stats left and right, and turning every advantage the enemy gained into a disadvantage. We _stan_ this blobbo!

[@Pao-vo8mf]

haha yes we stan

[@Inithia]

The opponent scary facing his own urshifu was quite smart

[@superiorserperior5937]

Unfortunate that it backfired the moment trick room ended, since they couldn't remove the speed drop after.

[@ziedyee]

Honestly, that player was playing super smart! They definitely came the closest to making this a close fight!

[@SamoIsKing]

And then he protected, wasting the last turn of trick room. Went from big brain to smooth brain real quick.

[@NightFreeze9128]

never knew that interaction between Life Dew and Storm Drain before, it's neat that you both boost one mon and heal the other in a single move

[@beautifulnova6088]

Sap sipper and aromatherapy has a similar interaction.

[@luckydae5882]

I wonder if it procs stuff like Water Compaction or Absorb Bulb as well

[@cir0plus]

@@luckydae5882 it does not :(

[@rjmcirelli9097]

@@luckydae5882 be cool if it did. Heal and + defense

[@zawarudotokiwotomare9272]

The "YOUR ASS IS GRASS" responding with "I KNOW!!!" is the best part of this vid. I'd kill for you to include more bits where it's like the two teams are conversating and talking smack.

[@RennardShiver]

The synergy, creativity and thought put in every team made by Weedle just makes me flabbergasted. They're such a genius.

[@AacroX]

He really thought about everything

[@TheROZOZOZO]

@Julien Jerkovich either that or some people dont care about peoples self claimed pronouns

[@clvr51]

That "I know" after "grass is grass" at the beginning made me chuckle like an idiot lol we're off to an amazing start ahahahah

[@daneroberts1996]

Opponent 3 was pretty clever, using Scary Face on themselves to outspeed in trick room, but then they stalled out trick room by protecting which just let them get outsped as soon as trick room faded 🤔

[@bangoouygi6372]

he had the right idea, just executed it poorly

[@ImFangzBro]

​@@bangoouygi6372Yeah, panic will ruin your improv skills.

[@Hiddenpower12]

Awesome videos as always Weedle, keep up the good work!

[@WeedleTwineedle]

thanks so much for the support I'm doing my best!

[@PrivateSparky]

The Steel Beam Magic Guard combo is pretty neat. Well, basically every play with Reuniclus was great.

[@hskikibot2846]

The reason this reuniclus set worked so well and had a lot of players confused (and salty) was cause it’s normally used as a damage dealer, so a lot of people were caught off guard, I like the set, very nice

[@ezraday8374]

Our queen WeedleTwincineroar slaying us with this upload schedule 😍😍😍

[@codyholley]

More like weedletwinsanity

[@DrGandW]

I’m losing my mind, I didn’t think power levels this high were possible

[@jayplay8869]

This is like 2015 weedle levels of epic play.

Yessssss

The glorious return of weddle tweddle

I love you Weedle keep up the good work but also know that it's ok to take breaks!

[@HenhousetheRed]

Queen Weedle need their beauty sleep.

[@Mihawk288]

"Your ass is grass" "I know!" I don't think I've heard a joke being used this often in such short time that never fails to amuse me 😂

[@evinickbruggen6407]

Weedle, you brighten my day every time you upload. Keep slaying showdown, I'll be here.

[@BimbelyGimbly]

Hey, this couldn't have come at a better time, I was binging all of your other Showdown videos last night, and then I see this! You made my day Weedle, slay on queen!

[@austinwells3225]

Reuniclus is one of my favorite Pokémon because it looks like it’s going in for a hug 🥹 That Magic Guard/Steel Beam combo was elite!

[@snarkventuregaming4746]

The Grimmsnarl & Urshifu opponent using Scary Face on their own Urshifu was actually a pretty neat tech.

[@gengarzilla1685]

Then they wasted it by using Protect in the last Trick Room turn.

[@Sh4dowgale]

2:45 I was not expecting that! LMFAO

[@Equimage_]

WEEDLE!!! I fucking love your audios used. "My Reshiram" is so niche ive never heard it before but i just know it's from a funny clip. AND ALSO i started bawling my eyes out when you used Lunar Legend - Meribia Theme on the first victory. God im so happy i subscribed to you

[@raeldrake3147]

When Rillaboom dynamaxed and the DK Country noise happened that was perfect. Super funny well done on this and all the other videos this week.

[@chishokudo]

I love the meme sound effects you use in ur videos they really help me follow along on what's happening in the battle, thx themperor

[@JonkoSlunko]

I love the sets you show in your vids. Makes me want to try vgc/doubles format but I am used to singles

[@jakec.1136]

I used to play singles too but I have way more fun with doubles. The games are much shorter and there’s much less stall

[@bakstaber17]

@4:20 the double switch from reinculus to gastrodon was 10000000 iq play

[@WesGucci]

The way the opponents just saw reuniclus's goofy little smile as he foiled every single one of their plans. Great vid Weedle^^

[@MrAsianadam]

that DKC bird death sound for Ho-Oh!! xDD

[@davispo7550]

I like how a years-old ORAS wifi battle vid still provides some of the best voice lines on this channel

[@TheKazenova]

I love how you always make me go “wtf are you doing” with your cool strats. Keep it up!

[@fanatic_ender6814]

I love the content weedle, been watching since 2017. You really brought me back to my child self playing pokemon Diamond all those years ago

Weedle and Joey are the only top tier competitive Poketubers

[@AyoSteven.Official]

@@rpg_haven Aye don't forget CTC and the Agency Blunder

[@rpg_haven]

@@AyoSteven.Official Eh, I don't watch them regularly. Not my style, but I like when Joey features them.

Love your videos, I’m genuinely lost as to how you find your inspiration to craft so many innovative teams

[@jjtt899]

we love frequent uploads

[@rensvh98]

Three uploads in 2 weeks? We’re getting spoiledddd 💅🏼 Jaw dropping strats and great editing as always!

"and you lost to it gg" 💅 took me out faster than their Incineroar. 😂 Thank you so much for your amazing videos!!! Always excited to see a notification for a new video!!!!

[@paulmyrin5028]

Creative, brilliant, awesome as usual Weedle. I'm always looking forward to your next commentated battle.

[@Annominus]

So nice you watch it more than twice. I never thought Reuniclus could be used like this. Learned something new. Keep up the good content.

[@Nvel09]

This is awesome! Really creative Reuniclus set. Thanks for the hard work on this!

Every time Weedle uploads, my day gets a hell of a lot better.

[@nefigah]

Thank you for including the "My Reshiram!" voice clip this time. There was a Reshiram in a recent video, and I felt naked without that guy's voice accompanying it

[@luckypunch1251]

my jaw actually dropped when steel beam didn't do any recoil, i knew magic guard was good but not HOW good

[@SilvaShadow1990]

YO I DID THE SAME

[@DrGandW]

The only ways for a Magic Guard Pokémon to take damage aside from a direct attack are HP modifying moves like Belly Drum and Substitute, and instant kills like Destiny Bond and Perish Song.

[@borismuller86]

I did something similar with Blacephalon and Alakazam. Mind Blown without recoil and Beast Boosting Zam is quite the combination!

[@gengarzilla1685]

It really is just an almost complete kit. They weren't joking when they said "indirect damage".
