 Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode of our Pokemon BGC 2019 battle series. I hope you all well Thank you so much for tuning in and we are back playing this team that we kicked off with earlier in the week Which is on your screen right in front of you now as always the team is down in the description below There is a poker paste and a roll paste try it out take it away Do what you want with it if you do try it out though I'm sure you will have a lot of fun and let me know how you get on with it if you do try it out If you've missed any of the matches up so far this week If you need like to catch up with them before coming into today's episode as always I'll put a card up there for you can go back check those out and then come into today's episode Check out the progress of the team so far. We've had some incredible games this week So hopefully it continues on this week and we've not seen as much of the mega-monetrick as I would have liked So hopefully today and tomorrow before you wrap up going into the weekend We'll be able to see a little bit more of that but without further ado Let's jump into today's episode music is on all set ready to go So hopefully it doesn't take too long to find a first opponent. I feel like I can't get my words out What's wrong with me? Let's pick some music. Let's click into Elite fall elite fall. That's a good always a good one to kick us off with today If you ever have any requests for music that you'd like to see played I've got a particular favorite one that I don't really play very often Do let me know in the comment section I want to make sure to feature it on our future episodes probably next week because I'm pre-recording these Which I'm gonna have to try and do a little bit more of now with a little fear in our lives and Creating manic for us all the time, but it's absolutely it's been amazing She's doing really well and like I said, I do want to try and get her on the channel Maybe a stream one night I'll get her on and we can we can she can press some buttons for us and probably play Pokemon a lot better than us I'm really hoping she likes Pokemon It's one of those things that I'm really conscious of because I love the franchise so much So there's Pokemon stuff around the house everywhere There's my trophies and things like that and other memorabilia that I've collected over the years But it's one thing that I don't want to push on to her because I feel if I push it on to her and I force it I feel like she might kick back with it So I really want her to discover it herself and then fall in love with it like hopefully I did and that would be amazing Wouldn't it and that's how we all want it to be but we've got a first opponent of the episode so I hop straight into team preview my opponent already locked in got a lot to catching up to do So first opponent today running a team of salamence Kyle got bronze on tap cocoa Gengar and Groudon, so we've got the jewel primal combination got the double mega I think we've already played this opponent already this week maybe Or did I play this opponent in testing? I don't know but the jewel primals they've got the speed control with the bronze on and then The trick room there and then the tail went on salamence gonna have the Gengar there We can check that with the top of Lele, which I think we did previously. So I do want to bring the Lele again Lunala still a very good pick I feel because we can check the Gengar We definitely want to run Kyle got and I think again we'll go with Hydra again. I drink is really good here Just Cartana could be just as useful, but I think because of the Gengar The Hydra against really useful so I'll bring Hydra again And I think we'll click in with these and we'll get straight into our first one today So good luck to my opponent and Yeah, I'm pretty sure this was like Monday's opponent. I'm pretty sure So we'll see But it would be amazing like I'm talking about the air and she's a long way off playing Pokemon yet But I mean when she gets to like five six Hopefully she does enjoy it and it'd be amazing at that point We'll start taking her to events and see how she does if she like if she wants to compete She might like the card game and then I'll be lost I'll be like we call on all of you guys for help with that So we'll see Okay, my opponent leading out with Gengar and the Tapu Koko again. We can set up a tailwind And psychic into the Gengar which will deal with it We've got to worry about I think in the last game There was the Electra web that came out from the Tapu Koko, but we will just go for that tailwind here Again, then we'll probably see Electra web Gengar protect might not protect this turn thinking that we're gonna call the double bluff and say I will attack into the Koko because we know the protects coming out there, but we don't want to leave that Gengar alone We don't want to get punished for not attacking into it Which we are gonna just see it protect here, and we'll see what this Koko decides to go for after our psychic And there's the Electra web so exactly the same turn playing out as the previous game Do you don't mind? Yeah, and I think one of the things that we have to we could do now is just double tap that Koko because I expect the Gengar to switch out now So if we just psychic and moon guys beam and I think that puts us in a bit of a better position Because one of the things we have to worry about is I mean the Koko could protect you the Gengar does switch out We're not getting that damage initially onto the Kyogre like we wanted to and that we got in the last game But getting rid of the Koko preventing it from going for that Electra web again is the big thing here Now it could protect like I've said But if it does then it leaves the door open for us to do that the next turn and we can switch out now Which we couldn't do previously so Let's see what we decide to do. Let's protect. It's a little bit of a shame We could have got the the psychic and the moon guys beam into the Kyogre Which we did the last game where we got the knockout there and now the cat the Koko's kind of left open Does the Kyogre just? Protect here. That's the thing Because what could we bring in We could bring in our own Kyogre. I mean having our own Kyogre isn't the worst thing And I just don't want to leave the Kyogre unchecked So I could psychic the Koko and Go for the Z move into the Kyogre Yeah, I think that's not a bad play The only problem doing this is we kind of are the Koko are switching out. Okay, what we're gonna see Gengar come in Excellent. All right, this works out perfectly I mean one of the things that I was worried about probably more than anything was the Gengar dealing with that later on in this match So we are able to actually snipe that which is pretty good The Koko's still gonna be a bit of an issue to deal with but we are gonna get the Z move now and you have to remember that The Z moves are copyright blocked So I have to make a little cutscene which we'll do as soon as we see the pretty face of Lunala here So we'll be right back When the Z move And when we do make target into the Kyogre, how much damage can we do? I don't think we've got to pick up the KO the last turn, you know Lily avoids. Oh, that is part breaking for my opponent there. That is really heartbreaking We do they do miss the Origin Pulse and this is one of the issues with Origin Pulse with Precious Blades So many times like it just really costs you It's so frustrating for my opponent, it really is Okay, let's go for psychic into Koko and How do we switch out Lele because Lele could be quite useful a late game Just I think the Koko protects here I really do I'm gonna try and preserve Lele for later. I'm gonna I just expect could I'm gonna actually bring in Hydragan. Yeah, and I'm gonna attack PsyShock into Into the Kyogre The Koko might protect it might not The Kyogre will probably protect like I expect to double protect here because they've lowered our speeds This is what I would think there's a protect from the Koko. Does the Kyogre protect? Yeah, okay So I mean we get Hydragan in now and we've got access to this earth power So we can we can nuke the the Koko this next turn even if they've got dazzling gleam We can definitely set another tail wind up which is going to help us out with this end game Especially if the groudon's in the back for my opponent So what we'll do is we will earth power and we will go for that tail wind again I wonder if we'll see We'll probably just see Origin Pulse electro web again. I'd imagine Lunala is going to be slower More than likely than the Kyogre depending on the build of it. There's a dazzling gleam coming in We'll take Hydragan down to its sash do survive though. This is the handy thing about that sash Just guaranteeing an attack off here. Hopefully this picks up the knockout onto the Koko Oh, it's so close. So close Origin Pulse. Lunala should take this Oh just about and we'll get the tail wind up and then we can get a Lele back in and now I feel like we're in a really good place because I don't want to bring Kyogre Just yet because of the groudon the threat of the groudon coming in although What we could do is How close is that kyogre to getting taken down? Hmm Now the Lele would be Yeah, the Lele is better because we can then side shock psychic Yeah, and then keep Kyogre for later because side shock will get Kyogre from this range Psychic gets the Koko and we're kind of locking my opponent They're forced to kind of try and stall out this tail wind But I don't know if they're going to be able to do it Especially with the groudon in the back as long as we've got Kyogre to come in We should be able to close this one up. So we will go for the psychic into the Koko and the side shock into the Kyogre I think the origin pulse Miss earlier really did matter because if you get that then you you pick up the the KO onto the Lunala anyway We're not going to see the the Kyogre protect. We're going to get the side shock into this Kyogre Which should be enough now under the psychic terrain to pick up the knockout there. Um And then the next turn when they have the groudon comes in you definitely get the Koko Which opens the door for Kyogre to come in and just get the scald KO onto the groudon if it is the last one might not be We're not seeing it yet. So we'll have to see It is the groudon Is the groudon so yeah, we should be fine. I think to close this one up And psychic into the Koko and we'll get a moon guys beam into the groudon Even though we've got the psychic terrain up groudon is more physically Defensively built than specially defensively built. So the moon guys would probably do just a little bit more groudon in the side shock But I think regardless of that it's not really going to matter I think the one thing that I do keep falling back on with this team is definitely that Um, why god would be more useful on Lunala. I think then the roar has been um But then it makes me think you probably want to put your impulse on miniaturics So we've got a better way to deal with boosted zonius than we currently have with snarl, which Isn't the most reliable and maybe we could get rid of hidden power water because we just haven't used it Hidden power water put theory impulse on and that might give us a little bit more of an edge Lunala actually avoids Say you press this blade orange impulse just the worst moves worst moves in history Layla does get taken down, but now we do get the Kyogre in we are on tailwind And I mean This is the thing I'm talking about wide god if we're this position now Where we've got lunala on the field. We've got kyogre in the range up and we've got wide god There's literally nothing groudon can really do. I mean if they've got earth power, then yeah, they can earth power us They've got dragon claw or thunderbolt or something like that, but they're really Rarities and I think this is what I tried to do in 2016 with my hitman top And I tried to get board positions where I had kyogre out on the field In front of a groudon with the rain up and hitman top next to it with wide god and groudons like most of the time are just Completely useless and can't really do very much. So Um, we'll go for them moon guys and the skull should wrap it up But we might see the forfeit come out here now. We're just gonna see my opponent's playing it on like a champ true champ Um, but they haven't had very much luck with um With their low accuracy attacks or lower accuracy attacks Um, but this is one of the reasons why I went scald on kyogre because I do think the wide god on I can origin pulse water Order spout set you can get lucked out and I just didn't want that and the added bonus of scald with a burn there It's a single target as well. It just makes it gives you that nice option And pretty much they're doing about the same damage. Anyway, um when you look at the damage of A double target origin pulse scald does about the same damage So you're not really missing out at all and it's just a bit more reliable So you're just not missing when you need to hit But we've locked in oh, we haven't locked in. Sorry. I'm sitting on that screen not locked in But we have locked in now. So there's the scald and we are able to pick up the knockout onto the groudon so You know, I like doing some nice work there dodging a lot of attacks So to stick around a lot longer than it probably should have but um, we are able to pick up a win today So that's a nice one and um, then we did get a bit of fortunate I think in both matches versus this trainer, which is a little bit unfortunate um, but Nonetheless, we'll take the victory as we always do and we'll just hop straight over and To our main screen then we can hop into our next match and hopefully it doesn't take too long to find our next opponent But um, I really hope you guys have been enjoying the run with this team this week I know it's a little bit different from what you'd normally see and um, I definitely I'm enjoying this team I really do like it a lot I think it makes a big difference at the start of the week and I was saying when you're putting a team together And you just have that that moment like clarity where it clicks and I definitely have that with us. We've got a lemon cello up next which is a An acquired taste of a drink if you've ever had it. So we'll hop into our next game Not the biggest fan of lemon cello the drink But I'm a big fan of lemon cello the trainer because he's rocking a really cool team consisting of Serena Lugia Gengar, Incineroar, Kyogre and Tabu Coco So we're probably gonna see the Lugia with the z-tail win to boost this critical hit chances I definitely say that's probably what we're gonna see and so we need to be a bit careful around that um It's based on 10 as well So it's gonna have to be majority of things on our team except the Tabu Lele but Uh, I do want to bring Lunala and I think just I'm a bit wary about the Gengar coming out So just to check that I do want to bring Lele But at the same time could bring Kyogre because I do expect the Incineroar to come out Um, and then bring Lele along for the ride as well And do we want Minetric? Minetric could be good because I feel like Coco could be a bit of an issue um, the only reason I wouldn't No, there isn't really much reason not to bring Minetric here. I mean Katana could be good Uh, it's not going to appreciate the Lugia stuff though. So Minetric's probably a better choice And having it in the back if the Coco does come out, we can kind of bait in an electric type attack onto Kyogre Maybe switch it in there. So we'll try this And we'll go into this this first one, Lemoncello Lemoncello, I always remember It's a German nat in 20 Oh, yeah, was it 2015? I think In Germany and there was like me bars There's a bunch of us After the event sitting and we went to the local store to get some drinks Because where bars was staying with them the birch brothers They had really nice hotel and there's this nice green up the back near the venue and we got We ended up getting a bottle of this Lemoncello thinking it was going to be nice It was gross. Like that's just my opinion. I just can't drink it. It's like too lemony too lemony But I think yeah, I think we ended up just passing around the whole table. It was such a good night Um, a lot of old old old players there, which was really nice Good old days. Good old national days reflecting on those. We are going to see the Gengor Andy and Senor come up from my opponent. I think what we'll do here is um You might have to sack the Lele here. You might have to I'm going to bring in the Lele And I'm going to go for the water spout if my opponent decides to attack with the Gengor here They will go into the Lele and they'll probably take it down But it's a worthy sacrifice. I feel to get the Gengor and the Incinero with Kyogre and one fell swoop I feel like I'll take that trade for Lele all day long And if we get Lele in and the Gengor does protect then It's fine. We put a lot of pressure on the next turn. We're checking the Incinero as well. We're protecting Inside of the field. So we'll go for that So I'll see what my opponent decides to go for here You know that switch out And then there's Lele. So just get around this breakout support And I think even if we take a sludge bomb from the Gengor into the Kyogre slot Which I don't think we're likely to do we should pick up the knockout into Incinero But I'm not going to see that I'm going to see Incinero switch out. We're going to see Kyogre hit the field. I wonder if we'll just see a protect from the Gengor this turn to lock us in Maybe maybe not I don't know because I feel like you can't Gengor can't like reliably pick up the knockout with Shadow Ball onto Lunala through Shadow Shield So it may protect here which puts us in a better position going into the next turn for sure Yeah, so we'll get free walks by damage onto this Kyogre and then the Gengor's in A really tricky position going into this next turn And I think Incinero comes in on that Gengor slot or something because I don't feel like I think you keep the Gengor in. I'm going to psychic into the Kyogre and I'm just going to water spout again I think we're putting on enough pressure here to kind of just keep clicking the water spout button But make a little predict where the Gengor switches out because I think you expect maybe the the scarf here from the Lele rather than keep the Gengor in And if the Gengor does stay in an attack I'll use Lele But I think you switch out to something maybe like Lugia although you might be pinned into a position This is where we might have went wrong. You might be pinned in To a position where you think I can't switch out into anything to take an attack So I've just got to just got to take I've just got to leave the Gengor in And maybe rely on me making a mistake like I'm doing now Maybe not a mistake, but maybe making a predict where you can get a bit of an advantage But we're not going to see that we're going to see the Gengor switch out Incinero hit the field This will mean we're all going to be able to take down this Kyogre Hopefully a sidekick in the terrain should be enough to take down this Kyogre from here I know if we had side shock we'd definitely be able to Just whether or not I the Kyogre just protects, but we will be able to get the Incinero now Which likely brings the Gengor back in And what's about and this is what I mean about like making that predict pinned my opponent It could have went wrong could have went wrong with the Gengor staying in But then if it stays in an attacks the Lele and you protect the Kyogre still then you're going down to a What's about so again? We get a good trade off there like I would trade tap a Lele for Gengor Any time like just to get rid of the Gengor it frees up new Nala so much in this match Tapa Coco gonna hit the field now This is that interesting Position where we could go for the Minetrix switching the light and rod and just water spout again We talked about earlier and I think I'm gonna do that. I'm gonna bring you a Minetrix and just water spout Hopefully with a faster Kyogre. I don't know if we are Did my opponent have a trick room option? I don't think they did So, let's see Hopefully the Coco goes for like a z move or if than a ball that would be ideal if they do then they Light and rod coming in super clutch there. We might lose Minetrix now to an origin puzzle water spout Skulled where you going into Minetrix and so you get another water spout. That's fine because we'll take the Coco down now Minetrix doing its job and we'll get the the Lele back onto the field with its psychic terrain to deal with that Gengor The opposing Kyogre is not really too much of a threat now. Skull shouldn't take down a Lele And I think it's gonna be pretty much raptor from here on out. So that's that's pretty good But it's just about keeping control of the field really more than anything. I think and Utilizing Kyogre like we have done and like Lele is so useful Like my opponent's got this a similar sort of thing with the Serena on this other field But they opted not to bring it this game Yeah, we'll just Do we just yeah, we'll go for the Gengor I don't want to get punished for doing this and we should take a Skulled from the opposing Kyogre Like we could be cheeky and go for the psychic into the Kyogre here, which we probably should have done But it's just like if we do that and then the Gengor gets a shadow ball into a Lele Um, well if they do that then yeah, I think the psychic into the the Kyogre is a better shout Oh, because that that happens. Yeah, because if we've done that we take down the Kyogre If the Gengor does attack then they take a waterspout. So in hindsight really the more reliable player there would have been The psychic the Kyogre waterspout into the Gengor Um, but as it stands All right, and we can take our foot off the gas a little bit because we still got Kyogre on the field We still got Lunala in the back Lunala can come in and and just pick up the knockout now with side shock or Moongai's beam and Kyogre can do waterspout stuff. So it should still be fine. And I think When you've got these options open, you're not so worried. You're not so worried So we'll just Moongai's beam don't need to z move don't need to add any extra cutscenes to this video already Save some work for myself Just taking his time weighing up his options. I wonder what he's got and the forfeit comes out No options. So very good game to the lemon cello great username Brings back lots of nice fond memories and a really nice game for us to end up with today So we'll call it a day there guys. Thank you so much for tuning in Hope you've enjoyed today's episode and we'll be back to wrap up with this team tomorrow Before we make maybe some changes going into next week Well, we'll definitely make changes going into next week But if you've got any suggestions as always just keep them coming and I'll see you for the next one So have a great day. Take care of yourselves and I'll see you for that next episode tomorrow. So until then take care and bye
