Love the return of conversational style for a video like this where the purpose is to show your competitive take on things and especially now that it's paired up with great editing it's just *chef's kiss* I do feel like more heavily scripted videos still make sense in the context of certain videos that you'll make like tournament runs where the purpose is to develop a narrative or maybe inform the viewer about specific things

This was really great- I stopped watching your content for a little while because I was burnt out of the newer style, but I feel like you've hit your stride and found the balance between over the top Alpharad style content and your older style which was more conversational. The video itself was also very informative which I appreciated. I also really appreciate that you are still a family friendly channel :)

[@ZetaArcticana4006]

Bug would be cool.

[@SJKNOL]

@@nathanlamont9920 it really isn't. It's still an incredibly strong Pokemon in Doubles. The problem is, since Mewtwo counts as a restricted Pokemon, it's only legal in formats where other, even more powerful Pokemon are also legal. And since these formats only allow you to use 1 or 2 of these Restricted Pokemon, it's never worth using Mewtwo over something like Groudon or Zacian.

[@nathanlamont9920]

@@SJKNOLMewtwo main problem are its poor abilities and low speed. Even Mega Mewtwo Y (which was fast back in gen 6/7) is out sped by Zacian. Nor can Mewtwo one shot Kyorge with Thunder (unless holding specs). Maybe with tailwind support with specs Mewtwo, but it is quite the commitment. But that is how GF always been. The new shiny toy outclasses the old shiny toy. By gen 10, they are going to release something that makes us forget how broken Flutter Mane was.

I like this editing style a lot, the pokemon displays with the type-matching backgrounds are really cool and just feel like they fit a lot with the analysis style. One thing I would say is that inserting anime clips, and to a lesser extent cartridge 1v1 clips was quite jarring and didn't mesh very well with the video in my opinion. Of course, just constructive criticism, but i love the videos all the same and props to whoever edited this :)

[@user-hz1uu7pv7o]

So regarding your demeanor in the video, I think that it was perfect. I came here for information and you gave it to me but also explained it very well and made it entertaining at the same time. I would definitely recommend to keep up what it is that you're doing. Also, this video is just great in general. I'm newer to the pokémon battling scene and I'm constantly looking for videos like these. I think that an entire series of this for all the types would be an amazing idea. Obviously as long as it's something that's feasible for you to do. I would also like to say that as a newer player, I find your videos significantly more helpful than many others and that you have a very pleasant and professional demeanor but your jokes are well timed and add a nice little sense of mild comic relief from the seriousness of the content. Not necessary but enjoyable all the same. I'm currently making my way through your video library to learn as much as I can so that I can hopefully eventually enter on a competitive level myself. I feel like the information you give is invaluable and is what's going to help push me there. You are definitely an A+ content creator with a very pleasant personality that can be watched for long periods of time without making the viewer feel bored, uninterested, or that you're not giving enough information. Keep doing what you're doing and I very much look forward to your future content!
