WolfeyVGC I’m an audio engineer and at the beginning you asked what “this thing” in front the mic does. It’s called a pop filter and it displaces the air from plosives ( P and B sound that move a lot of air) to stop the microphone from being super boomy and shitty.

Me: Wolfe Glick is some kind of Pokemon super genius. He can hard read opponents and go for plays as if he knows exactly what his opponent is thinking. Wolfe Glick: So here I chose the wrong move, and it worked out well for me and it looks like I did a super cool hard read but it was completely by mistake.

Same! I played Pokémon as a kid. Started with Red, then Yellow, then Silver and Gold. After that, I stopped playing for whatever reason. For some reason, this video was recommended, and I watched a 1.5 hr video of two guys I’ve never heard of play a game with Pokémon I’ve never seen (besides Gengar). Still enjoyed it. Might get have to catch up on all the new gen games I never played.

[@MattFromHawaii]

@@robertrussell9680 me too! Lol I played red and my brother had blue. He played silver and I played gold. We also used to play the N64 games too and they were so much fun. I forgot the name of the party game one. And also snap lol I was hesistant at first to get back into pokemon, cause I skipped like 5 gens I think? Lol but I had a switch that I got for Zelda botw, and thought, why not? So I got Shield... Honestly, it was so much fun to get back into pokemon again! 😂🤓🤪❤️😇 If you enjoyed any of the original Gameboy pokemon games, I think you'd like the newer ones too. Well, speaking for shield and sword. Idk about the other ones and Idk if I'll play anymore of those either. Who knows. But I don't regret getting shield. It's soo much fun lol it's even cooler when you find out that there's different game exclusives and this and that. Also, the dlc is worth it if you were wondering... I was literally watching and researching the pros and cons of getting it and haven't regretted it! So much more content to make the game interesting, and more easier to do some things. Also introduces more pokemon and areas to the world. A bunch of stuff besides what I mentioned. I think it's great for passing time and playing with friends or someone else who has it. You can also trade and battle with other people online.

Remember kids, you’re not reading, you’re “covering options”.

[@boo453]

At the risk of over-analysing a potentially non-serious comment, this is exactly one of the things Wolfe does to be great. I think a lot of people approach Pokémon thinking it's a game of how to out-predict your opponent, which it might be at lower levels of play when the opponent is bad and going for obvious moves. But at a high level, your opponent isn't bad and isn't going for obvious moves. You can try and "predict" what they will do, and the may predict your prediction, or you may end up "over-predicting" something. It ends up very messy. The trick is not try and predict what your opponent will do, but to cover for what they could do.

[@Naxtor72]

On the contraire, every time I cover options I'm just going to say it was a hard read

[@Kurto.]

Hearing the backstories, emotions, and experiences during and before this match makes it even more amazing to watch. I remember watching this live and being thrilled that you won (and how crazy everyone went when they realized why you had that now-iconic expression, lmao). I first learned about you when you were a guest in one of Aaron's videos (I think it featured a Charizard Y + Venusaur Pledge team?) back in 2015, and it's amazing to see how far you've come and how much success you're experiencing. I stopped playing VGC in mid-2018 after becoming incredibly frustrated that I hadn't won any events over four different formats. I got back into Pokemon when Sword and Shield came out, and started playing VGC again last month. I remember I was on Twitch and had your channel recommended to me in the sidebar. I didn't know that you streamed, so I immediately followed. A couple weeks later, I tuned into one of your lesson/lecture streams about "getting started in VGC," and your stream was the push that got me playing again. Pokemon was a huge part of my childhood, and being able to play it to this day and meet new people who share the same passion for it is an amazing experience for me. I know I'm not really anybody, but thanks for all the wholesome and honest content over the years. Your dedication to the game and its community really shows.

ya know, reading Jonathan's report, I realized how impactful a lot of the decisions made in this game were. Jonathan mentions several points where he talks about missing the obvious decisions, such as protecting in front of swords dance, when using eruption would have won him the second game, or how if he had just spent an hour to double check his spreads and fix his gengar's evs, he'd have a 25% chance to survive origin pulse in game two, meaning he'd have the ability to maintain weather control. It really is absolutely insane how much work is put in to be on that stage, and how deserved it truly is. Congrats Wolfe, I can without a doubt say that you've proven yourself.

[@booba2141]

How to comp players change evs like that in the tournament tho, do they change them in legit ways or do they hack

[@colinvollmer]

@Booba I think Jonathan meant double-checking his spread before the tournament. You’re right that you can’t change anything about your team once you lock it in, and nobody cheats/hacks to do so; it’s impossible. But Origin Pulse is a really common move he could have calc’d and optimized his spread for, he only realized that in hindsight.

28:32 that handshake looks almost like a painting lmao. Wolfe seems calm, collected whereas the newcomer jonathan evans is like reaching out from his seat to meet his hand, looks a bit more thrown off lol. IDK I just find the body language funny

[@bryanhughes6421]

This wideo was amazing Wolfey! I love hearing about what's going on in your head, especially during these super competitive matches. Helps us new players learn and get better at the game

[@robogoku]

I love how someone had to play the delta episode the entire day just so they could mega evolve Rayquaza.

[@litenyng]

Nodody: Wolfey: “ I think I lost that water bottle at that tournament” 😂😂😂 Love you man ❤️

[@catandfishfc]

The only player to admit losing his bottle!

[@RickyJC]

35 minutes in: “We are ready for Game 1 of the finals!”

[@2Red16]

Amazing video, the play by play commentary was really interesting. I love how a large part of the matchup between teams with Pokémon like Mega Gengar, Mega Rayquaza and the primals was the dynamic of Raichu vs. Manectric! The resulting Rayquaza/Kyogre lead was really cool.

[@UnAweonao]

Great video Wolfe, haven't seen it yet but it's probably true lol

[@WolfeyVGC]

:)

[@hoitem6500]

[@Demento56]

VGC is such a bizarre format to me because you can see Primal Groudon next to Primal Kyogre up against Raichu and Hitmontop in a world championship match, and the guy with the Raichu and Hitmontop wins.

[@guillermogimenez4813]

That game made me a fan, not only of wolfe, but of vgc as well. And that was even before I knew he had such a nice personality. I loved to watch your 1h and a half wideo today, thanks for making my time at home nicer

[@maximilianbur2560]

I‘ve not been here in a while, this is way more sophisticated than I recall

[@pairofgrins6994]

I was actually there for this event! It was what inspired me to get into competitive, It took a few years to get to the point where I had enough time to start, but I'm competing in my first (unofficial) tournament in a week or so now and I owe it all to this match!

[@pokeinator7834]

Can I get an update on your journey?

[@jwanie366]

I still remember watching this live. Even though I live in the SF Bay Area, I wasn't able to attend on Finals day due to the spectator rules. Wonder if TPCi will do that again this year (assuming Worlds doesn't get cancelled)

[@WolfeyVGC]

:)

[@David-iq5wr]

This is incredible content, Wolfe. You're such an admirable guy and I love hearing the story of your success from your POV.

[@word2grandma392]

BEAUTIFUL insight !!! This is the match that got me into VGC. I was a casual for 18years until I saw this match ( I'm 26 now ) . This match made me learn EVs , IVs , predictions , foresight AND hindsight . I appreciate you Wolfey . You changed my life FOREVER . Now I'm the person who teaches others about wise plays and preparing for the end game . THANK YOU WOLFEY !!! Can't wait to see you win worlds again !!!!!! Can't wait to see you in the finals !!!!!

[@inioszi3053]

I watched till the end, would watch even 2h one. Absolutely loved it, even more depth about meta and previous games would be amazing too. Thanks Wolfe

[@ieatcherries1951]

28:08 The link leads to a Rick Roll lol

[@andrewwojtas8486]

I can confirm

[@BlindSwami_]

yeah I tried it

[@mawile3037]

He said dont do it lol

[@gnomebliterator4129]

C’mon guys you need to comment something like “I really thought this was a Rickroll” so people visit the link.

[@nazgul4220]

I was watching this live in the middle of the night (Germany timezone) and back then I wasn't that good at competitive thinking, but watching you're reactions in the facecam made me feel like I understood what was going on. Still one of the best matches I've ever seen!

[@tom_tells_jokes]

This game was what really got me into VGC despite the meta. Thanks always Wolfey

[@simoncox458]

I could watch 100 hours of this commentary. Not only am I big entertained, but I've also been wanting to get into VGC for a few years now, but I always felt like I wasn't good enough and I didn't quite know how to reach that next level. But seeing such a high level of play and hearing the inner workings of what's happening is really useful in terms of "how do I play this game". Thanks Wolfe, I hope to see a million more wideos like this

[@nochilldil2414]

I really enjoy how in-depth this analysis is. Going through the pre-game prep thought process was very insightful.

[@L-Puffin]

I've watched this match so many times, but it's even more amazing to hear what your thought process was in the moment! Awesome wideo Wolfey, I'd love to see more wideos like this for sure

[@kevinyu687]

wolfe saying "wideo" does something weird to my heart rate.

[@MrWargynek]

I've said it before, I'll say it again; someone really needs to just make an anime out of this at this point. It has everything. Promise with a friend to win worlds Battle with said friend in the top 4 You guys and your pokeball necklace during worlds Aaron commentating It just all needs to be an anime.

[@battlepans1927]

You should do it. Dedicate your life to learning how to animate and become famous for this

[@cesardanielramosnavarro1677]

I can't explain just how much valuable information this format provided. I hope you get back to it sometime cause its pure gold

[@ristopoho824]

Rewatching this video now after seeing the players cup. It's, frankly, kinda scary how much you have improved after this match. The early game choices specially. I enjoy seeing you bring entirely different leads even if the first ones worked, just displaying the flexibility of the team to make it harder to predict pretty much anything even later into the game. I lost my train of thought but yea, good going and nice to see you have not reached your prime yet.

[@Sashiikins]

I remember watching this match, it was filled with so much controversy and I was new to the vgc field so I ended up having a horrible opinion, befause of others, on Wolfe for a long time but now I’m so glad Wolfe has started to stream and do his KZbin career cause now I can see who Wolfe really is and appreciate him and his plays.

[@mr.fluffypantz4150]

Could you please elaborate? I’d love to hear it. I was already a Wolfe fan boy at the time, so that might be why I don’t remember it that way, but I was also too busy with school to be paying a huge amount of attention. Was it that his misplay was read as a really risky read, and his camera glare was taken as disrespectful?

[@Sashiikins]

What I remember was that the first offense was just in general what Wolfe said, the meta was trash so everyone already had disdain for the two finalist. The second was the timer situation, a lot of people were accusing Wolfe of being a time staller throughout the competition even though his opponent did the same and many do it still. There was many false accusations saying he only wins through time stalling and blah blah. And then the last was the beef between the two opponents and I know a lot of the other sides fanboys ended up painting Wolfe as an egotistical snobbish person. Now that I know Wolfe, I know he doesn’t try to timestall on purpose it’s just he’s constantly overthinking things and playing mind chess over every little situation haha I love Wolfe now and appreciate him and I just wished I didn’t listen to the idiots back then because I ended up just ignoring his adventure through the years because of some dumb opinions

[@Deode-d4h]

Listening to this man dissect his own finals match is insane. The level of detail and explanation is incredible.

[@dope7846]

Woah there fella, there are some wideo in your ads that I’ll watch anyways ‘cause I love you

[@WolfeyVGC]

:3

[@mr.fluffypantz4150]

It’s still more minutes between ads than a 15 minute video with 2 ads. Seems fair to me, especially when not every ad procs. There are creators who put 3 ads in a 10 minute video. I’m not mad

[@KC_604]

Was wondering what his back ground is cuz he has no accent but evrytime he says video lolol Wolfe’s the man tho looking like a he just got finished doing a job Paul gotier cologne shoot lol #Pimpin at worlds

[@shadycactus6146]

Mikey Khan yeah it took me a while to figure out that he does that on purpose as a joke lol

[@wer4hoxy]

I watched the video of your Worlds win back in december 19 for the first time out of couristy cause I started playing VGC this year and wanted to know how my fav content creator achieved it. Now today is my third time watching it and it blows me away more each time as I understand more and more about pokemon. Thanks for doing pokemon YT content and belated gratz on being the 2016 Pokemon VGC Masters Division World Champion. :)

[@alexsanchez2422]

This was the first world's finals I watched live and it was so hype watching live and really insightful watching it again too. This was the set that got me into vgc and really enjoyed it

[@FoiledFeline]

Shoutouts to Aaron Cybertron Zheng! Great dood, so cool to hear that the two of you have been best Pokemon buds since the beginning :D

[@williammaxwellferris254]

A year later it’s time for a wolfie reacts to wolfie reacting to wolfie winning chanmpionship

[@jakelazzari523]

I have watched this wideo 4 times over the last year; and the match itself more than I can remember and will continue to do so as Wolfe possesses a skillset like no other. Never change Wolfe

[@Written...]

this is literally perfectly in depth... this is the content some of us are looking to see, AND its long, so you get paid more for it. dont ever stop super analysis

[@itwst3di875]

One of my favorite videos. Cant tell you how many times ive rewatched this
