Johto is a region that gets a lot of heat - and a lot of it justified - but what's the best Gen 2 Pokemon?

For anyone wondering why huge power doubling azumarill's attack from 50 to 100 is so good - thats not actually how stat doubling effects work. Azumarill's attack stat is calculated from its base 50 attack plus IVs and EVs, and then the final result - which at level 50 maxes out at 112 - is doubled. The final stat is roughly the equivalent of having base 150-160 attack, so somewhere between Groudon and Necrozma-Dusk Mane. Pretty impressive for such a little guy!

Claire’s Kingra back in original Gold/Silver and the remakes still gives me nightmares

[@TheDeathlyG]

Same man. People talk about Whitney's Miltank (rightfully), but Claire's Kingdra took down entire teams...

[@silentfox2366]

I mean when you fight witney your team is still under level than the milktank and will get rolled by the milktank alone But when you fight claire your team is mostly comeplete and have good stat so that why people is more raging on witney than claire​@@TheDeathlyG

[@TheDeathlyG]

@@silentfox2366 Actually, Kingdra is far worse. Miltank is ~level 21, while trainers are in the mid to upper teens and wild Pokemon are about 6 levels below. Claire's Kingdra is level 40, a whopping 15-19 levels above most wild encounters you can grind for exp. If you did every trainer encounter AND grinded some wild encounters, you could expect to be mid 30's at best. Kingdra comes in with not only a significant level lead, but also a major type advantage as you cannot get a Dragon Type Pokemon (the only Super Effective move typing) from a wild encounter. Even if you did, the only Dragon type move that does anything is Dragon's Breath, as Twister is both ineffective and lacks a helpful secondary effect due to Kingdra's speed. Additionally, all her Dragonair's have Thunder Wave, meaning at least one if not more of your 'mons will be paralyzed. Unlike Whitney who's bane, Machop, is easily accessible, Claire lacks such an obvious counter. She has a higher level disparity, status conditions all over the place, and better typing. She is objectively worse to fight, even though you have more options.

[@Bluebedo]

@@TheDeathlyG I was always amazed when the internet got more connected and I started hearing all these horror stories about Whitney's miltank while having zero issues with it in any of my playthroughs. Meanwhile Claire? Her Kingdra got me to actually use items in a battle because it did absolutely terrible things to my team if I didn't. The huge irony being that after getting hyped up on Claire, the Elite 4 and Lance were relative pushovers in comparison.

[@SolstaceWinters]

I think the reason most folks (myself included) have more visceral memories of Whitney and not Claire (who I personally find forgettable) is because most folks when they replay the game tend to make it up to Whitney, but are less likely to reach Claire near the end of the Johto segment of the game. Their playthroughs may peter out and due to disinterest or burnout and end up shelved. Thus folks see more of Whitney, not Claire. Though I'm only speaking from personal experience. Many of my "spur of the moment, on a whim" attempts to start a run of G/S/C/HG/SS usually end in me giving up partway through. Usually a town or two after beating Whitney.

[@Draethiox]

Still using the egg-rabbit for raids to this day. Sometimes, you just need a good belly drummer. And while I like Ogerpon (been a long time since I liked a legendary), she just doesn't scratch that itch.

This thing faced down fighting types getting actual attacks, U-Turn, the physical/special split, quiver dance and shell smash, massive amounts of stat creep, and gimmicks out the wazoo. It didn't drop until Gen 9 basically turned UU into OU.

[@AlbRomano]

And honestly, TTar only dropped so much because the strongest things to do in sand are all banned. Those early days of the graveyard dog (forgot it's name) taking names late game were disgusting. Remember kids, full powered sand or rain are too strong for OU anyways.

Check out “worst starter Pokémon”

[@hellothere2570]

Feraligatr is pretty decent in singles, but it's never really been good in doubles

[@Jlaps941]

He’s good but doesn’t really do much that other water types can’t do better

[@saiyaddanapudi9216]

You still haven’t filled out the Wo-Chien apology form

[@Defaultnoobisme]

Wooper is obviously #1 this is outrageous

[@leonardobarbosatelles2779]

I just noticed it, but Wolfey’s notebook from 2016 looks a lot like Ned’s Declassified Survival Guide. Idc for the details, Ned officially helped Wolfey become the world champion of 2016, case closed

My favorite gen 2 pokemon is Umbreon, others are Quagsire, Crobat, and Ampharos.

Love you man

14:09 HE DID IT GUYS, HE MENTIONED INCINEROAR IN THE JHOTO VIDEO!!!

[@syan2240]

But I want to use ledian :(

[@soupcitybudgetcollecting6146]

Pokemon Colosseum music is the best. Well done music editor.

[@BorisTheGoose92]

Wolfey's war on Incineroar knows no bounds. He is like a supporting actor. The fella shows up every video.

[@Justice4bug]

7/10 video tbh, too much water (types)

[@HopeP0H]

Johto best generation of all time. It's got the perfect balance of funny bad mons and cool good mons.

[@TH-cn5uh]

Shuckle will remember this transgression. Great video! Sad my boy Lanturn didn't make it but they will always be number 1 in my heart. I think a fun buff would be if illuminate increased your accuracy and ally accuracy by one stage or just giving it lightning rod. I dint think either would make it super viable but I think it could find some niche roles.

[@hugogonzalez2239]

Another great video Wolfe! I can’t wait to see which is the best Gen 3 Pokémon competitively. Your content is amazing! I rooted for you to win during the NAIC.

[@jamesvonderhaar2553]

I think you have Suicune a little underestimated based on their early days. Most importantly, before the special-physical split, all electric and grass attacks were special attacks. That meant that if you clicked Calm Mind twice your weaknesses were functionally negated (Calm Mind improved special defense, x2 special defense canceled out the x2 damage hitting a weakness.) This was so impactful that Suicune even got its own bit of slang -CMSHNW, or “Calm Mind Suicune has no weak.” Suicune also had rest, and against many teams Suicune was functionally immortal barring critical hits. Sleep talk allowed it to keep firing powered up Surfs while remaining in sleep all the time. It was easily a top 5 threat in GSC singles.

[@phoenixc4324]

Wolfe only makes videos about VGC so singles isn't relevent

[@MagitekBahamuto]

Dude I like how you used Pokemon Colosseum Final Boss theme to talk about the #1 Johto pokemon. I still remember Evice's fight, so intimidating!!

[@datboishiz3474]

I did not expect to feel teary eyed from Wolfey talking about how good Tyranitar is and has been for generations. Like there's a real sense of that monster we knew as a child, that imposing figure that we grew from a Lil lizard in a cave, despite all of its setbacks and how much the world has moved on can STILL rock the world stage and come out on top.

[@ReadEveryDay456]

My favorite thing about this video is the use of Pokemon Colosseum music in the background. Colosseum was a game that primarily featured Johto Pokemon and revamped a lot of their animations (most notably Ampharos and Azumarill), and allowed players access to them who had complained about Ruby/Sapphire's lack of backwards compatibility with Gold/Silver. Not sure if that was intentional on Wolfey's part but I appreciate it nonetheless.

[@weightedundermountainofbook]

Wolfey sound so excited when talking about T-tar, you can really see he really loves T-tar. Well tbh who doesn't love T-tar , it's design is super cool and it's also strong.

[@BenJi2DxD]

As a person who clears every Pokemon game with a Tyranitar, has drawn fan arts of him, has plush toys and stuff...I'm very happy to hear this. I've never played competitively, but I always thought of Tyranitar as a 1 mon army...and now I've heard it. Yesterday I found out Pokemon from PoGo can be transferred to SV and that made me happy, cuz I have a shiny Tyranitar there.

[@vermilionshadow]

Azumarill fan here, glad to see the zero to hero blue bun sees some love even in the most recent gen.
