if you have a flying type, you can run from pokemon with arena trap, this isn't always the case but it's still useful to know

You can also avoid them by staying on the road.

Plus it comes with a Power Plant tease

the worst part is that you get the smoke ball only two routes later

technically you can go out of your way to go to route 3 and catch a run away dunsparce since both route 4 and route 13 are next to lumiose but who cares that much lol

I literally had this happen 5 times in a row once. Fucking Tauros and Hariyama.

Those damn Geodude in that one cave in the Teal Mask DLC...

lost a shiny because of this

@@courtneyevie That sounds really infuriating

@@courtneyeviethat’s evil. I prefer pla where you battle Pokémon while throwing your Pokémon at them instead of simply touching them… or going near them because sometimes I go past a Pokémon but I’m still close enough to go into the battle but I didn’t even touch it.

HAS, NOT HAVE! WRONG WORD!

What happened with Clefable?

​@Thumper17 I'm not sure if I'm calling back to the right moment but back then he was fighting someone on X and Y and got toxic clefable stalled with it spamming minimize and moonlight

@@teomcnastyLosing to evasion stall is always infuriating.

@@teomcnastyyeah Clefable is on his least favorite Pokémon video, specifically one that kept using Minimize and Cosmic Power, then would heal itself with Moonlight until it’s stats maxed out for Stores Power

It technically was mentioned, or at least alluded to, when talking about Pokemon that have trapping abilities. Maybe it could've been mentioned specifically, but that might've been a bit redundant

@@matthewkuscienko4616 The difference between most pokemon with counter moves and Wobuffett though is that once youre in a battle with Wobuffett your pokemon is FAR more likely to die. Pokemon like trapinch and dugtrio may be annoying, but as long as you’re not in an incredibly disadvantagous position you’d probably be fine. Wobuffett on the other hand is equipped with a multitude of counter moves, so once you hit it, it’ll likely hit back FAR harder (At it will most likely survive at least one attack as Wobuffetts rlly tanky). PLUS!! It has destiny bond, which makes dealing with Wobuffett FAR more annoying and potentially lethal. Sure, pokemon with trapping moves are annoying in general, but Wobuffett is easily the worst of the bunch

Probably because you pretty much never encounter Wobbuffet like that. in Kanto, theyre in the post-game cerulean cave and sevii islands. In Johto they're in the optional dark cave. In Hoenn, they're in the optional safari zone. In Sinnoh, they're in the postgame pokéradar. They just straight up aren't in Unova or Alola. From Galar on, it's easy to dodge them since they're slow overworld encounters. Kalos is the big exception where they are 10% encounters in the mandatory Reflection cave. And honestly, I'm very sure the huge infamy of Diglett/Dugtrio and Trapinch solely comes from that godforsaken route 13 in Kalos since otherwise they often are in optional areas or postgame otherwise. In difference to reflection cave and Wobbuffets, you cannot just avoid them with repels, but also your movement often is slowed because of winds, they're fast overworld encounters, and you can only escape them by standing still, and the route is solely infested by them (aside from 20% Gible) vs. reflectioncave at having lots of other encounters. Thus why he didn't specifically point out Wobbuffet since you basically never meet them unless it's exactly a randomized pokémon encounter nuzlocke, which probably a lot of people have watched youtubers do, but I'll assume will be a very niche thing people actually play.@@energyshatty9020

@@youtube-kit9450 ohhhh that makes sense yeahh

I’m randomized nuzlockes though, Wobuffets kill

I do the same but with a Shadow Pokémon

It’s not even that hard to tell that it’s a Zaurua

Mine is always a Shiny Rayquaza or a Scizor, so it’s easy to see it’s a Zorua

I just have my best buddy as a Goomy and the ribbon is easy to see, so it's quite easy to tell. Though it was pretty funny when I had 2 best buddy Goomys on screen lol

@@ManyFaceImpressionsI don’t know what game you are talking about. But know this, this is an unsupported claim and it is wrong.

So, in my case, it would turn into an Ursaluna?

@@dustinarmstrong1168 absolutely. I had a perfect Gible as my buddy Pokémon and had it follow me for a year to earn mega candies to max it out. Zorua kept tricking me until my Gible gained the Best Buddy ribbon. Then I could tell it was Zorua because it had a ribbon on it.

​@@Chtsht23honestly sounds like an annoying waste of your time

@@dragonmaster3030 it was not. Lol

They did mentioned trapping abilities but yeah could have at least had the boi on screen

Out of all of these its by far the worst to encounter. Should have had a bigger focus(it was mentioned). Aura L

I feel like Wobbuffet mostly doesn't get mentioned because outside of Kalos' Reflection cave, you only encounter Wobbuffets in optional or post-game areas. And even in Kalos, Reflection Cave's Wobbuffets (which can at least be repel'd) are mostly overshadowed by that infamous route 13. Hence why he didn't feel the need to specifically point it out.

@@youtube-kit9450 bro has never heard of a randomizer Every person who has done a randomizer nuzlocke has encountered a wobuffet at least once

​@@danzackblack5829that's neat, but randomizers arnt official games nor is it the the thing most are familiar with

Pretty much The BEST reason to save your Master Ball on.

I've gotten 3 of them

I have a shiny Male Combee myself 😅🥲

@@Twinklethefox9022Same, but I don’t really care for vespiquen

Bruh💀💀

Could be worse, you could've tried for a shiny manaphy

POKEMON IS NOT SUPPOSED TO END WITH AN S! REMOVE IT NOW!

@@Amelia4111 So you're saying "monster" doesn't have a plural form?

@@Thedarkknight5 where does it say that? Pokemon is an acronym, Gif is also an acronym, And lots of people say gifs So why not pokemon?

@@kyllernotkillerignore her, she’s been doing these ‘correcting grammar’ comments for years, even on MandJTV’s channel. don’t listen to her

@@daniellageorgiou-norman2244 Huh, I just saw her recent comments, why does she write everything in caps lock? Is her keyboard broken or something?

Confuse, paralyze, infatuate, and have some kind of trapping move like wrap, whirlpool, firespin, etc.

PARAFLINCH TOGEKISS, enough said

modest nature on physical attackers is just 😐 (i can kinda relate, as someone who uses a ceruledge with the same nature on my main team in violet)

@@curiouscreator8806 I got the same nature on my Crobat from my first playthrough of Platinum a couple years ago, too >_>

I would officially call you a masochist.

When you're using an electric Pokemon and run into a dugtrio in radical red while doing a hardcore Nuzlocke and your electric type was under leveled.

Actually it’s just the Lake of Rage Gyarados you can’t run from

POKEMON IS SPELLED WITH 2 O'S, NOT 2 K'S!

Some of them are good enough to use without trade evolving, but yeah, it feels really bad to not be able to have them at their fullest potential.

I've always hated trade evolutions, it's great to punish people with no one else around isn't it

I thought Pokémon with the ability Intimidate would be included because those are so evil to fight.

​@@thatman666hopefully they make a sp atk version of intimidate for an ability, people would love that

HATTERENE IS SUPPOSED TO END WITH AN E!

@Amelia4111 dont care not that serious. Except your rising blood pressure

@@ashtonoak4370she’s been doing this for years, just ignore her

Or getting a shiny male heracross

Or a shiny male Fennekin, Popplio or Sprigatito, considering each of them have one or more members in their evolution lines that have feminine designs (specifically Braixen, Delphox, Brionne, Primarina & Meowscarada). 1/8 * 1/4096 chance full-odds, everybody.

THERE SHOULD BE ONLY ONE C IN ACTUALLY!

I never even heard of an authentic Sinistea. It seems like a pretty subtle difference.

No difference besides a bloody mark you won’t see anyway, a different evolution item and a 1:99 encounter ratio.
