There is no worse feeling while playing Pokemon than when like 4 field conditions go off at the end of every turn because everyone has lefties and sand is active and one guy is burned.

1:45 That's not a problem of Leftovers, that's a problem with Gamefreak insisting on the battles running like it's still gen1.😟

I recommend Quagsire and Flareon theorems, they’re the ones that were most hotly requested and are a lot of fun

13:00 in Gen 3 weather called by abilities (like Tyranitar’s signature Sand Stream) lasted until the end of battle or something triggered a different weather effect. So yeah, sand was dominant at the time.

Full Restores in a competitive environment as it currently exists would suck but I think it would be really cool if there was a tournament environment where everyone had access to the same amount of healing items but there was no healing between battles and it was a battle of attrition similar to an Elite 4 run

*I will smite you for the Leftovers slander.*

Your Giratina reaction was actually the first vid of yours I ever saw. Agreed, probably the most hype moment in a Pokemon game and a nice challenge for once.

Silly Pat, Gen 7 didn’t get any movies. Not focused on its Pokemon like Kalos anyway. Those were the years of I Choose You and its timeline (and Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution)

Leftovers is useful for defensive Pokémon I don’t like the life orb recoil damage

27:20 After Alakazam gained nasty plot in its movepool, its Mega has actually been ubers in national dex (A smogon metagame that brings back removed mechanics like megas, pursuit, z moves, etc)!

"What do berries taste like?" Ask Lockstin & Gnoggin. He made an entire huge video on it

4:58 In Gen 5 Ubers, virtually every Arceus form was viable, just that some were much more niche than others (like Bug, Ice, Dragon or Flying); but there were still like at least 6, that being Arceus Normal, Ghost, Ground, Fairy, Water, and Electric.

13:00 gen 3 is the sand gen

5:03 you should watch the “How Good was Arceus Actually?” Video for that info lol

Patterz is bad at math if you did 55% they would go down to 45% then heal 6% from leftovers to 51% then another 55% would kill so yes 10% buffs do matter

ngl a then we fight video about using moves and or items that aren't in S/V would be insanely fun

Black sludge is actually really bad in gen 9 because of terastallization. It's kinda crazy.

23:45 Lockstin did a video on all the berries real world inspirations a while back.

Patterz, to your observation about resist berries not being really utilized in any of the "then we fight" videos, that's because you guys usually just pray to roll a busted ability that gives a type immunity instead. Like "Well-Baked Body" on a Steel type, or "Sap Sipper" on a Swampert to completely nullify the 4x Grass weakness, or the classic Lightning Rod/Volt Absorb on Gyarados. Also Tera completely makes resist berries redundant in gen 9. But I think you should still give them a chance because of the surprise factor. Being able to stay in on a weakness without committing Tera is huge a lot of the time. For example: imagine being D-Dance Gyarados with Earthquake. You kill something, then Raging Bolt comes in. "Oh no, Raging Bolt is gonna just revenge kill my poor Gyarados before I can EQ him!! I have to switch out or sack Gyara." Just kidding. Stay in because Wakan Berry will reduce the damage from Thunderclap, then EQ that idiot Raging *_Dolt_* and laugh. (I don't have anything against Raging Bolt, I just think its funny to come up with stupid names for paradox Pokemon, like changing Roaring Moon to "Soaring Goon" or "Boring Spoon". Or changing Walking Wake to "Stalking Steak".) Edit: Patterz, in regards to Boots over Leftovers, "Its nice to have options isn't it?" is a nice sentiment, but its only a sentiment. Because when you have the choice between 6% recovery and completely ignoring the 12% tax from switching onto Stealth Rocks (its only 12% if you're only NEUTRAL to rocks, so imagine being able to ignore the 25% tax from being rocks weak or the 50% tax from being QUAD rocks weak), then there's no real choice. You take the boots, every time. And that's if there's ONLY Stealth Rocks. Imagine not having to worry about the spikes that your opponent stacked up, or worse, the TOXIC spikes that they stacked twice. And that's not even factoring in the Sticky Webs that they threw down. Sure, Kricketune is a deplorably awful piece of garbage, truly not fit to even wear the name "Pokemon", but at least it can set up Sticky Webs before dying with a shred of its dignity left. Just kidding, my opponent's sweeper has Heavy Duty Boots on, so my Kricketune can't even do the one thing its useful for.

Duncan use to use the craziest z-moves in draft league. I recall he won a battle by using z rain dance on manaphy

28:04 I click Stealth Rock second. First turn I click U Turn just so I can avoid Knock Off against Stealth Rock Gliscor.

LET'S GOOOOO! False Swipe Gaming content is prime reaction content, and I'm so happy Patterz is doing so!

Leftovers takes way too much time... I had a 2v2 where one was holding leftovers and the other (psn type) holding black sludge.

Nah, when Benny bent down into a fighting stance I just snorted lol 😂

29:37 Patt talking about toxic stall. Me remembering him with the sub toxic Delphox.

Bro the only reason why I hate Black Sludge is Toxapex. I was doing a self imposed challenge in Pokémon Showdown where I could only use my favorite Pokémon and had to win 5 times in a row. On the 5th battle I ran into a salty kid with only a Toxapex and I believe a Glimmora and that little piece of you know what stalled my team with ONE FRICKING TOXAPEX. Now I hate Toxapex, Black Sludge and Double Layer Tox Spikes almost as much as Miltank (yes I hate Miltank bc of Mikey). For reference my team were competitively built OU & UU BEASTS: - Nebula the Mega Absol - Majora the Ogerpon (Wellspring Mask) - Tantalos the Ceruledge - Kitsune the Hisuian Zoroark - Ridley the Kommo-o - Champ the Hawlucha

Take a shot every time Pat says "I don't like Leftovers"

Laughs in LC

23:34 I don't know what the berries taste like, but I know Lockstin did a full berry explaination video with their irl counterparts too! So you might wanna react to that too!

I remember there was a strat with Walren Leftovers, aqua ring, hail Damage meant nothing unless you can one shot it in gen 5 with the infinite snowstorm with Abomasnow

Regular Arceus is most popular but Arceus ground and fairy both see a good amount of usage in Ubers currently as well

Me, screaming in the Tera Raid that I do alone with a Pokémon with leftovers that I forgot to take off.

I used to think that choice scarf made you the faster pokemon no matter what the speed stat was so I tried running choice scarf rhyperior as a sweeper but then I got out sped by a life orb greninja and was super confused. This was a long time ago, back when XY first came out and I was still a child

I’ve always wanted to see you react to one of FSG’s theorems. 😃

1:23 In the 5th Gen pokemon games there was a battle type called Wonder Launcher which allowed you to use items, though balanced by the fact each item had a cost to use. I always thought it was a really cool gimmick and if it was balanced correctly could be a fun way to balance, the only issue being it invaliadates a lot of buff moves by having X-Items and such be in the mode, invaliates most healing moves by having potions and revives be available (albeit for a lot of points), and invalidates status in a lot of cases by how cheap the status recovery items are. But the fact that each of these costs points is really fun, but it would also probably make battles take way too long from stall being too strong.

Patterz only uses Choice items. So make sure to choice-lock him folks, he's right .His battles only take like 6 turns cause he gets swept after letting something set up on a choice lock.

23:34 berries canonically have their own flavors, and each one raises certain things in the games that have contests!!! Personally, i like sweet flavors the best… but of course, I’m far from cute.😅😓😭 I’m not a Smeargle who’s fond of competitive battling, but at least there’s other things in life worth enjoying instead!

What are those crazy looking battles in the video from? Not the sword and shield ones but the wild 3d ones with the camera moving

Pat "i hate leftovers cuz it makes battle go for longer" Also Pat - spams TWaves in "and then we fight" with Shady.

19:43 that is some interesting math you did there.

Coolest thing in Pokemon, regardless of my feelings about the games in general, was the AI Professor pokeball drop. Just the casual flex of letting the ball roll off their fingers and drop to the ground instead of throwing it was chilling.

Run flame orb too power up facade

Surprised Soul Dew wasn't mentioned

then you got weather extended items. most commonly damp rock and heat rock. imagine if we had the trick room extended items

100 - 55 = 45 + 6 = 51 The second 55% attack will KO

2:00 No idea, but I play stall so it really doesnt matter.

Bad math patters, if you deal 55% then they are at 45%, they heal to 51% and then die to the 55% attack, they don't live another one. Love your videos and reactions!

20:05 why is bro caked up😭

Then would despise my Arboliva who has Seed Sower, Leech Seed, AND Leftovers. ;)

Yes

All GameFreak has to do is let a “Leftovers has been recovered” prompt go off with user’s health bars being recovered based on speed. Easy!

My brain now whenever I think of choice scarf mons goes straight to Breloom with Spore 😭😭

I'm pretty sure Z-Splash gives a +3 Attack Boost which is really goofy to me xD

You'd hate my Poison Heal/Toxic Orb Gliscor

I feel like a lot of the items aren't used much outside of competitive because the game doesn't really attempt to quantify anything, so unless you are going and specifically looking up the exact affect of an item you're likely to think it isn't worth it. As someone who has never done competitive I assumed that there wasn't really any point in using life orb because I'm probably taking as much recoil damage as I am doing extra damage. Or, why lock yourself into a move with a choice item if you're pokemon only has damaging fire moves and you can just use charcoal? But hearing some of the numbers it's like, oh, that sounds really amazing! I should totally use those! (Not that you really need them given that the single player is so much easier than battling competitive, but it would probably also make it easier for people to get into competitive if they already knew about and were used to using some of these items. As it is, the barrier to getting into competitive is so much more intimidating.)

You should react to Animals with the worst mating rituals, in ten minutes by Mr. Knowledge

WHat about the Item in B&W with this Armgun?

Love from India❤

Urshifu had to have lower stats. Can you imagine if they had stuck guaranteed crit thru protect on zacian? 🤣

Okay, but I refuse to use moves that do recoil damage for the same reason XD

You call him Razaquaz, I call him Rayquayquay

*(**1:20** - **1:29**)* You know how some games give Full Restores to high-level trainers? I await the day when a trainer will just whip out a _Max Revive._ 😈

11:27 I think…I think you’re the type of person game freak caters to, maybe even why there’s so much power creep.

i dont know why but leftovers is such a weird thing to dislike

That moment you react to another channel referencing your own reaction

Btw, Patterrz doesn’t like Leftovers

So I'm a little surprised you didn't know this but all berries in Pokemon are based on real life fruit and vegetables. Yache is a cherimoya. Which one I Google what it tastes like is I guess somewhere between a pineapple and a kiwi whatever that means

it would be nice for you to react to Gameboylad video about Pokemon tcg, is a restrospective about the gameboy game and the card game in general, is a very well put together video.

Im the opposite i would gladly hurt myself at the end of every turn if it means im not trapped into one move

19:00 this is the second time I've heard you say this, is this a joke I'm unaware of?

Then we fight with only gems for the items??

Imagine not 2 shooting a Pokemon because leftovers gave enough HP, imagine not Sporing a Pokemon because he uses Safety Goggles, imagine getting KO’d by a Mon because he have a item that gives 50% more dmg, Pokemon Competitive became more complex compared to chess, but fast pace

Well I don’t play competitive and I’ve rarely ever used left overs so I’d say it’s probably taken a full hour of my life total thru out my whole life one hour TOPS but you right that is too long 😂

We get this content at least 😊😊

how about starting a draft league with your friends using only gen8 and 9 mons

So you don't hate leftovers, you hate the slow animations and text.

Mega Arceus

Ubers that are banned from ubers

All my homies hate heavy duty boots

20:00 math? if you do 55% enemy goes down to 45% leftovers heals 6% and that's 51% another 55% is enough for the KO but i can see why you got confused calcing at 50% and not 55% LOL

"i want them to cone back" ehhhh maybe invest some research into seeing if you can play online old gen 5 battling with your friends like using one of those neat custom dns to make a connected server that you guys can use and do a and then we fight video but in the past? haha id watch it!

😍😍😍😍😍

pls ps plus or ea day1

Rn the latest comment is 24 mins away, but the video is 38 ? Mins 💀

Shell bell> leftovers It aint items but we need special guts and special huge power

iF you truly hate Leftovers you should boycott them in "Then We Fights". Establish your dominance of the lefty users

3rd

I don’t like their theorems. They are so bad and missed the point half the time. Like the speed theorem they didn’t even mention trick room

he needs to stop these random deep philosophical moments mid video bro, i come here to relax and get hit with an existential crisis
