It’s not official circuit, but nobody should forget that Wolfe predicted his opponent would use trick room to take down his trick room so he used trick room taking down his own trick room, and making it so his opponent would take set up a fresh trick room for him For everyone interested, it’s in his video for the random tournament at around the 54 minute mark. I recommend watching the full video for context though.

This is why I wish Pokemon was bigger as an eSports, it's not taken seriously by a lot of people but the highest level players are so skilled and fun to watch because they can find a way out of seemingly impossible situations

When a game has this big of RNG involved it can never be big and shouldn't be rightly so

@nachomolaolivera7580 11 ай бұрын

Too much of those "noteworth" plays occur only in the player's head. There isn't something in-game to tell it's a good move except when they win. Doesn't help out how centralized the META can be, the sheer amount of time involved nor the fact that an enourmous part of your community simply doesn't care about competitive.

@Watburnt 10 ай бұрын

Heavy RNG and a wider community that's very hostile towards the competitive side hurt it plus it's not on pc and it takes a while time to make a team

@martyrking2288 11 ай бұрын

@maestroeragon 11 ай бұрын

@@martyrking2288 i guess it's the combo of choice item + trapping that makes it particularly evil, since normally you force a switch but this just forces them to disable their own TR lol

@@martyrking2288 Because #1 didn't just give him a big lead, it won him the entire game from turn 1.

@loupe500 10 ай бұрын

@@martyrking2288 number 1 was probably super planned. He lead with Goldenghoul and brought Gothitelle in the back basically check mating his opponent from the pokemon selection. Honestly, that Gothitelle might be there with mainly that purpose in the team (counter trick room and maybe perish song), making it a plan he had from team building. That's pretty impressive imo. Normaly tricking Indeedee only forces a switch, having a team that can auto win a match up without losing that bad to the other ones is insane. Baek's is probably more out of the box like you said, but it didn't win the game by itself and neither was that well planned, it was mostly improvisation.

It's also kinda crazy how many of these plays came out of NAIC, just goes to show how insane the competition and skill ceiling was for this final tournament before Worlds. The editing here was so clean too, those transitions were smoother than a polished Voltorb! Keep up the great work Wolfey and team

(You could even do like- "The Best Play of Every Pokemon Generation", I'd click on that lol. But whatever form it comes in, I'd LOVE to see more vidoes like this). I feel like #10 should've been way higher on the list, but I think in terms of the videos story it sets up/foreshadows the tricking a choice item right at the start with #10 and then comes back at the end with #1 too so thats awesome, the storyboarding/layout of the video is so good!! the plays dont have to be in any kind of order for the next one, you can just share them however they best fit together for the video :3
