WTF how can move first your grumpig after your sub fail?

[joshp011]

@biswaly:

Because for whatever reason Brandon didn't use Extremespeed with Rayquaza again, he either thought he would outspeed Grumpig or he accidentally selected a different move.

Why is Bacon faster than Thyplosion???

[joshp011]

@KhrisL618:

Seriously, ever heard of EV training? :P

Okay, let's see, Typhlosion's Base Speed is 100, Grumpig's is 80, so most Typhlosion's would be faster, yes. [unless they had a Minus Speed Nature for whatever reason]

But, Grumpig is EV Trained in Speed, and has a Plus Speed Nature if I remember correctly, I made it that way because it's supposed to be a sweeper.

And I don't think Brandom EV Trains, at least not very much, or maybe his Typhlosion just isn't EV Trained in Speed or something.

WTF a typhlosion couldnt take out a sub wow its sp att must suck man

[joshp011]

@JXstewart1:

Here's the thing though, my Grumpig has the Thick Fat ability, which halves all damage for Ice and Fire moves.

Eruption also does less damage if you the Pokemon that uses it has less health, so it's strongest at full health.

Grumpig is also a good Special Wall, it takes Special Attacks well.

I wasn't too surprised when his Typhlosion didn't break the Sub at first, but when it failed to take out the Sub after a 2ND Eruption, I was a little surprised. I did have a Calm Mind up though.

I always thought Grumpig sucked. But after watching this vid... wow.

[blasthree]

Lol Grumpig had been one of my favorite pokemons, but i never really use it. I can't decide whether to go with Trio Punch/Confuse Ray or Rest/Sleep Talk/Seismic Toss/Ice Punch set. For now I'll stick with my Mostly Not-Smogon NU/UU Team. Though it wasn't really effective >.>

[theandyandsamyshow]

awesome! perfect timing cuz i was just thinking of ev training a grumpig :)

[069950640]

bacon... thick and fatening just how i like it

[aJewishBagel]

dude you took those eruptions like a fucking beast

[8943username]

BACON!

[joshp011]

@pokemasterDIN1:

I was only a little surprised that he hit the Sub TWICE and it still didn't break. :P

Mainly because that's when I realized his Typhlosion -probably- isn't EV trained, but even if it was, it would still have a bit of trouble taking down a Grumpig because of the Thick Fat, like you said.

[rebutina]

bravo, grumpig is my favourite pokemon. Im glad to see how powerful he can become

[rebutina]

bravo, grumpig is my favourite. Im glad to see what he is capable of if properly trained. :D
