Regidrago has never been a good Pokémon - but this year, could it actually be good enough to win the World Championships?

If anyone is curious: Regidrago was used by 3 players on day 2 of Worlds, 2 of whom used the same 6 Pokemon (if not the same team) as Ansena's tournament-winning team mentioned in the video. The highest-ranked of them placed 61st overall. That's comparable to regular Articuno, which was used by 2 players and peaked at 70th place. Can't be right every time!

@worldiefeard8396 9 ай бұрын

Well, generational nerfs have been done to pokemon that have overperformed in the previous generation. This gen they hit Urshifu-dark, Rillaboom, Zacian and Regieleki which as you probably know were extremely popular last gen. They tecnically nerfed Zamazenta's stats since they had to match Zacian's total BST and ability, but ended up buffing him anyway since he finally got access to Body Press at least. Regidraco had nearly 0 usage, so no need to hit him, in fact he got buffed by gaining Earth Power / Earthquake which it didn't have last gen, meaning he doesn't need to terastalize to hit pokemon immune to his stab (whereas Regieleki more or less has to).

@butteredsalmonella 9 ай бұрын

@yuankang0127 9 ай бұрын

@@butteredsalmonella I mean it makes sense since they are a pair of box legendaries so they have to have to same BST so they had to nerf it but I'm pretty sure that Zamazenta a better move pool since in gen 8 that was one of the main reasons it was so bad Also fun fact during the later half of gen 8 Smogon were actually considering moving Zamazenta down to OU

The top 10 pokemon by usage in OU last July were: Great Tusk, an extremely reliable stealth rock setter Kingambit, a bulky steel type with strong priority Iron Valiant, a strong and fast fairy type Gholdengo, a bulky steel type with reliable recovery and a spin blocker Samurott Hisui, an extremely reliable spikes setter Dragapult, an extremely fast and strong dragon type with great STAB Baxcalibur, an ice type with strong priority Slowking Galar, an extremely specially bulky pokemon with reliable recovery Zapdos, which isn't a huge deal Enamorus, a Fairy/Flying type that completely counters dragon/ground coverage. Pretty rough top 10 for a pokemon that relies on never taking damage. Sure, in the right scenarios it can beat all of these pokemon, but it REALLY needs the right scenario. It needs a boosting item to 2HKO standard AV Glowking, Gholdengo frequently runs air balloon, and keeping hazards off the field isn't exactly the easiest task in the world. Suffering quite a bit from the Rampardos theorem.

@@VampiresAreRealGuys No, it really is a terrible idea no matter how you look it, you're tunnel-visioning in one mon only. 100 base Spatk is not that high so it needs to be maxed out. What this guy is saying would imply running a neutral or -def nature which is not ideal, and because the base stats of Atk and SpAtk are identical you have to even out the distribution, which could've been spent simply maxing out SpAtk. This is why you get 4 mons to play with at a time. This is not 1v1 Challenge Cup.
