That's so annoying and it's so hard to catch moves using incinerate

That will be so good!!

Another scary fact: when resisted incinerate make same dmg as high effective bubble, how does this compare to typings weakness/resistance??

It's just raw damage versus bulk. There comes a point where the damage and the bulk equalise. It's the unstoppable force and the immovable object.

@@sirsilco Sure, but this game is alot about typing. And soon typings wont matter.

@@TGregerstyping should give you an advantage, it shouldn’t guarantee a win. No fun in being doomed just because by nothing but chance somebody has a more suiting typing against your mon.

a meta mon is either spammy or bulky that’s just how it is

Com day coming up soon, but yeah I have a shadow hundo and that's my only shadow. Suckksss

yep, same goes for cyndaquil and charmander, quilava and charmeleon

Yes, but it needs shields. It’s so glassy

Id just keep watching that video of his, he explains when and why he switches, shields, etc. That being said, stick to the one team, through wins and losses - you'll naturally learn what to do against certain match ups, and what opposing team comps are, based on lead

I would say that the lickitung skarmory whiscash is simply not a good team. It has the huge issue of not having a safe swap. I have a crazy team that got me to legend and even top 100 in the world. It may seem outlandish but here it is. Whimsicott talonflame skelederge. This an ABB team. How it works is every lead that is either neutral or negative you swap skelderge. You are likely to get countered by a water type but that is the point. You try to grab a sheild advantage. Odds are whatever just countered your skelederge gets walled by whimsicott. Now that the fire counter(usally a water type is out of the way your talonflame will be able to beat the two pokemon in the back far more times than not. The only issues for the team are mantine and bastidon but i have beaten dozens of both of those and won games. Just make sure to time the incinirates correctly and you will be winning 70% percent of games

​@@gnome2323 pelliper looking at this team like 👁👄👁

@@PaulwardP pelliper is basically extinct in this meta. I would say i see less than one a week. The bigger issue is mantine which simply outclasses it

2 incinirates Ten turns

That's what I was thinking as well

Although a fun fact is that before the poison fang nerf salazale was the only pokemon to be able to reach a charge move in 5 turns or less as it could do it on the 4th poison fang. After the nerf however it is 10 turns to every poison fang.

I'm not gonna sit here and pretend to have all the answers you seek, but I can give you this advice with great confidence: do your best not to waste shields on Bubblebeam; people are using that garage on both Mantine and Jelly.

Nah. Debuff moves add another layer of strategy and depth. They’re good as they are.

Debuff moves can be pretty healthy, like on Rayquaza and Haxorus when they were given Breaking swipe allowing them to live a little more, but they can also be unhealthy like when Breaking Swipe was given to steelix

Lol and I just saw your chesnaught video and you talk about chesnaught now :)

Unfortunately I shot chesnaught before any move update so it is a previous video

@@DanOttawaPOGO ah then you don't kill skarmony in 2 shields :/

you do you, it's actually pretty fun to me and they give me stardust, so win win for me 🐱🤙

I appreciate it. Hate the fluff. Hate the click bait. Just give me the raw data and truth. Save me stardust, save me candies. If it’s not meta, it’s not meta. That’s not Dan’s fault. It’s Niantic’s.
