 Hello friends, welcome back to the channel. Hope you're all doing great in today's video. Yes, we've got some brand new information about the new gimmick in Pokemon scholar and violet to raster lies in of the back of the reviewer sessions that a bunch of content creators and reviewers got to go to have and hands on experience with the new games for like an hour. We've got a bunch more information from those sessions and we've got a lot more confirmation about how to raster lies in works and how it'll be impactful within the new format. So we're going to cover everything in today's video. Don't worry about missing anything. We'll talk about all of these changes, how the new gimmicks are going to work and what the impact and implications will look like for a lot of Pokemon going into these new games because it is a lot different than what we originally thought it was going to be. So the first thing to talk about today is going to be Terra Blast. Now, Terra Blast is that unique move that Pokemon are going to be able to utilize and take advantage of with to raster lies in in the new games. We know it's a very dynamic move. So if your Pokemon has a higher special attack, the move will be special based. If your Pokemon has a higher physical attack, then it's going to be a physical type attack. So like I say, very dynamic move, we didn't really know the base power of Terra Blast. Now that was a big question hanging over this move. What will the base power be? Now it's been confirmed off the back of these review sessions. Content creator has confirmed that it is going to be 80 base power. So it gives us a bit more scope going forward with how impactful this move will be going into these new games. 80 base power we guessed here on the channel from our previous videos between 60 and 80 now it is on the higher end of that. And it makes a lot of sense. I don't think it's too powerful. I think it probably sits nicely in the middle of where it probably should be not to be overpowered and not to be too low as well. So 80 base power is what we've got going forward. Now the next big confirmation that we did get was in regards to how terastalizing actually works. Now we were under the impression that if you've got say a Pokemon like Hydra again and it's going to terastalize into a poison type, that's its terror typing, it would lose its dragon and its dark typing and turn into a pure poison type. Now that is the case, but at the same time, when you go into that new terror type, you gain a new same type attack bonus for that terror type that you're turning into. So you would turn from the dark and dragon type into the poison type and gain just the poison stab. So you'd have a same type attack bonus for terror blast or poison type attacks on Hydra again. Once you transformed while doing that, you would lose the stabs from your dark and your dragon type attacks, which is, you know, made a lot of sense. There are going to be drawbacks with terastalizing, but that is not the case. It's been confirmed since then that when you do terastalize into a new type, then you actually keep the previous same type attack bonuses that you had from your base form. So Hydra again going into a poison terror type would still have this stab bonus from dark type attacks and dragon type attacks as well, essentially giving it three stab attacks. Now, it's safe for the same situation that Hydra goes into a pure dark type. It's going to get a bonus, a two time stab bonus on all dark type attacks. So we'd still only have two stab moves. It would still keep the dragon, but it would get a double boost on the dark type attacks, which is pretty huge. But the fact that Pokemon can now go into a new type and if they are dual typing as their base form and essentially get a third stab boost is just huge, just huge and really changes how we kind of perceived this whole mechanic to work in the format. Now, this was kind of confirmed by a bunch of sources that did go out and have hands on experiences with these games. Obviously, you've got Game and Bible here, did a big article on it, but you can see here that PLDH confirms here, confirmed terror buffs, same type, terastalization, bump stab from 1.5 to two times. If you change type, you still keep the original stabs and they'll be at 1.5, which is just insane. So we've kind of briefly talked about that just there. Then the article from Game and Bible goes into a bit more detail. Then you've got a tweet from Central Leaks as well to further explain how terastalizing will then work. We originally thought that the original stab was lost when changing to a different terotype, but that's not the case. All stabs are preserved. So we've got this Machio.it site, which is terastal calculator. I don't want to ignore forever because I will buy them a coffee. I will come back to that. There was this great tool here on Machio.it. So you plug in your Pokemon here like Hydragan, let's say, and we're going to have that poison or steel terotype here and then you simulate it and it will show you exactly what Hydragan stabs will be when it is terastalized into that poison type. So it will gain the poison typing and then it will gain a poison stab, but it will keep the dark and the dragon stab that it originally had, although it will just have all the benefits of a poison type. So we'll have Levitate. It will only have one weakness to psychic types, which is pretty good. So and you're going to be able to have all three stabs to take advantage of. So if any psychic types hit the field, you're still going to have that really strong dark type attacking move. And it's just it changes the whole dynamic of how terastalizing will work. Like literally, I didn't expect them to keep the original same type attack bonuses for their base forms after they terastalized. But this seems to be how it goes. So it really does create a lot more flexibility and I think really enhances the ability of some of these Pokemon to be that bit more impactful within the former and in these new games than we initially thought them to be. You take something like scissor here and this is something I would like to do. You don't go into a fire type with scissor and then you will simulate it and it will have a physical type fire type attack. It will be a fire type itself and it's still going to have that steel and it's still going to have that bug type stab that it originally had when it goes into that fire, terastalizing the same can be done for if you go into a water type scissor, you know, as well. So to resist those big fire type attacks that you would normally see coming out to hit scissor, you're going to have that water type stab. It will be physical and then you're going to be able to utilize something like Terablast to take advantage of that once you've terastalized and you're going to keep those original stabs. But then say if you want to go into a pure steel type with scissor, what you're going to get is you're going to go into a pure steel type so you've got to bear in mind that your weaknesses will all be based on what your terra type is. So you're still going to be weak to fire and things like that. Although you keep your same stabs from your original base form, you'll gain all the weaknesses and benefits from that new terastalized typing. But when you terastalize into a typing that is part of one of your base types. So here we've got scissor going into a pure steel type. Your stab for steel goes from one point five to two times stab, but you still keep that bugs type stab. So there is no drawback here. You're just reducing your weaknesses to fire in this case for scissor, but you're gaining a huge buff to something like your steel type attack, something like bullet punch, which you've got to remember on scissor in particular, already gets a technician boost as well. So further boosting that and then chicken on something like a life fall will make scissor an absolute monster. And then you can combine that with, you know, something like sword stance that we see commonly playing on scissor and competitive formats, it's going to really open up the door to be able to utilize these Pokemon even further than what we thought we'd be able to initially. The fact is that we know the base power as well of Terra Blast. We can have a look at how impactful it will be against some of the the more threatening Pokemon that they would normally come up against in the format. You know, you've got hydra in here. One of its biggest nemesis that you would say is probably something like a Sylveon. It finds it very difficult to hit Sylveon with or something like a zoom roll. But if you turn into a pure poison type, your Terra type is a poison type and then you can hit it for really good damage here with something like sludge bomb, 80 base power here. It's going to be hitting for 50 percent damage. And then you stack something like a life orb on top of it, then you're going to be hitting even more. And then you change your nature, maybe to something like modest to maximize after your thing and you're getting even closer to picking up a knockout. You could even go full tilt and chuck on a choice specs item here. And you're looking at this is a two five two HP Sylveon. You know, this is no slouch. It's a good defensive Pokemon and you're going to be nearly picking up a one hit chaos to be doing this on level 100. VG is normally level 50. But either way, you're going to be getting very close to being able to pick up a knockout with something like that. You stack on maybe a helping hand boost with that. You could go back down to the life orb and you're always guaranteeing a knockout against just a two five two kind of standard Sylveon that you would go up against. And with that poison type and as well, it means that you're not really going to be taking much damage from Sylveon's attacks and things like that. So, you know, you can see how good this new terror attack will be. And, you know, the other thing to note as well is if Sylveon leaves the field, you get rid of Sylveon and then you see a psychic type at the field. So, let's say we've got something like Girafferig, one of the confirmed psychic types you know will be coming into the game. Girafferig will be able to do a lot of damage with his psychic type attacks because Hydragan is now a poison type, but you're still going to have the dark pulse. You're still going to have the stab from the dark pulse that you originally had. So, you're still going to be able to hit it for absolutely ridiculous damage. Let's get rid of the life orb. Let's get rid of the helping hand boost. And you're still going to be able to pick up the knockout on something like Girafferig here. I wouldn't have thought with an Eviolite and maybe it's next... It's evolution might have different stat spreads as well, you know, probably stronger stats. But you get the picture. You're still going to have access to this stab attack doing big damage to it, as well as this new terror type and some other options like your Dracon meteor that you're going to be able to drop as well, which is pretty huge, making something that we thought was a good mechanic. New gimmick into an absolutely incredible new gimmick. So these are the changes. These are the confirmation that we've had about terastalizing. It's now going to be so much more different than what we originally thought it to be. Terrablast is going to be base 80 power, which is pretty big. It's a good move. It's going to be really beneficial for in particular normal types because they're going to be able to utilize it before terastalizing. And then you think when a normal type if it terastalizes into a normal type, it's going to get a double star boost on an 80 base power attack, which is pretty big and normal types don't have the biggest kind of pool of kind of normal type attack options anyway. You've got tri attack, you've got body slam, return and frustration of gone. So you don't have those as options anymore. You're going to have double edge, but they have drawbacks with recall. So you've got this really solid kind of terror blast attack that normal types can utilize. And obviously, when you utilize it on any Pokemon, the terastalizes is going to change into that type in as well, which we already knew about, but knowing the base power of it does give us a lot more insight to how impactful it will be in the format and what we're going to be able to do with it going forward. So I'd love to hear your opinions on this new mechanic. It is very different from what we kind of initially thought it to be. Keeping all the stabs when you do terastalize is huge. Obviously, getting that double terastalize star boost as well. If you go into a new terror type that was one of your base types is big as well. There's not really any drawbacks with that, just the power increase with that. It's going to be a very good mechanic. I fully get behind it. I think it's going to be one of the best mechanics and gimmicks that we've had in any of the Pokemon series. I think terastalizing will be the one and it should be balanced. I think it will be very balanced. It's going to be very impactful, but there are a lot of ways to play. We've covered a bunch of those on the channel already. So if you want to check out any of those videos, check out. I'll link them over here and you can go and watch those get a bit more information on how we can potentially change the format, how it will work. But in today's video, we've covered all the updated information. I'd love to hear your thoughts down below on how you think this is going to be impactful. Any ideas that you've got on these Pokemon as well. And I look forward to catching up with you in another video very soon. So until then, friends, take care of yourselves and bye bye.
