Game 2 you were scared you dont outspeed the ogre but your cress always outsped? Your zama is 149 cres is 150, surely you are safe to assume zama is faster especially considering ur walkingwake outsped under their own tailwimd

I can't watch this guy anymore. Zamazenta isn't slower than a max speed Cresselia with the IV/EV spread he showed.
@Jeshiae8 сағат бұрын
??? Yes, it is. (Timid Max Spe Cress is 150, Zama with only 4 Spe investment is 149). Also, why would you announce this... very odd.

@@SpooxyCowboy1911 because it's a waste of item slot. Zebstrika already has focus sash, it'll survive draco meteor no matter what. Adding fairy tea adds no additional benefit defensively, but adding a normal tera gets you an immunity to calyrex shadow rider, preserving your sash.

I think the Thundurus Tera'd due to a misunderstanding of the Dark passive effect. They might've thought that Dark protected them from status, when it was just from Prankster.

@skimaskedabi2 күн бұрын
Im sure he does exactly that, probably plays 5-10 games and picks the most interesting ones. Ive run into the *exact same team* 3-5x in a row many times. high ladder isnt filled with the most creative teambuilding sadly (oh look, REELABOOM....AGAIN)
@GamingGuyTy429Күн бұрын
I make VGC content for KZfaq and tbh, most Poketubers upload their best matches, not consecutive ones. I obviously can't speak for everyone, including James, but a lot of us do that as it generates more engagement. I like to think that Cybortron, ThatsAPlusOne, and Jeans might actually upload their matches consecutively as I've seen them lose multiple times on their channel (Pretty sure Jeans might have a video or two where he loses three of his matches 😅) For me personally, I'll only remove a loss from my final video if I lost strictly due to RNG. Otherwise, I upload my losses as it's important for viewers to know both the strengths and weaknesses of the team I'm featuring. Hope this helps!
