 Hello friends and welcome back to another episode of our Pokemon VGC 2020 battle series episode My name is Lee also known as Osiris and in today's episode We're gonna be featuring a team based all around a G max and telly on so as you can see the team is on your screen right now Consisting of that G max and telly on the vanilla luxury talent flame to Rackian and a moongus There's always there will be a poker paste down in the description for you guys to check out and try if you'd like and There will be a rental code at the end of the episode as always will do a couple of games with the team And then we will throw the rental team up for you guys to have a go with if you want so G max and telly on really strong Pokemon and maybe being still a little bit slept on here It's got a couple of options what I can do and in the format at the minute if you supported right with different things Obviously, it's got that focus energy and scope lens set that we've seen before we featured that on the channel actually And but we're going with a different tack today We're going with a life orb and a bit more of a kind of a hail kind of spam with that vanilla looks there We've also integrated beat up as well on the vanilla looks as it is scarfed So it is going to be faster than majority of the team and the majority of the format So we've got the ability to beat up our own to Rackian with the weakness policy there and start doing some big damage If we need to kind of cut through teams pretty quickly got the slow parts of the team Obviously with the Luxury and the Amungus Intimidate there to help us slow things down snarl support You've got volt switch on there as well It gives us that nice slow switch and then Amungus really there to try and disrupt trick room set up from my opponent's side of the field It also pairs in nicely with a nice fire water grass core with the Intelion and Talon flame soul without further ado Let's jump on to the ladder and hopefully you can find a few games for us to feature today Intelion is like I say a really interesting Pokemon It was one of the starter Pokemon that wasn't included in the ban list It's gonna crazy fast speed stats So it naturally out speeds most of the format So it does give our opponents a bit of a headache straight away and to begin with okay Well, we've got our first opponent and they are playing a team of Kingdra Politoad Sylveon, Amungus, Ferrothorn and and Darmanitan Glaring Forms So they've got a rain core with double grass with the redirection from the Amungus and obviously the Ferrothorn as well So two Pokemon that we need to be careful with and we do have the hail obviously that can disrupt My opponent's weather, but we have to be careful because we can't just lead vanillax into this match unfortunately because if we do They are going to be able to Overwrite that with their rain from Politoad because it will be naturally slower even even if it is scarf Politoad will be faster than it So it's just a case of what do we want to bring? I think like Intelion isn't a bad lead with maybe Luxray. We could go Talonflame I probably do want Talonflame in the back to be honest. I do want vanillax I think vanillax can do a lot of work here Sylveon worries me slightly because that is going to be a bit of a problem obviously very good on the special defensive side of things And I can't really freely lead Tarakian in this one But I do well, I mean I could bring Tarakian I could bring Tarakian it might help with the Ferrothorn and the Darmanitan We'll go with that and if we can get some speed control as well to help us out against the Darmanitan It's going to be an issue Got to be careful against the Amungus of course, but we do have that Blizzard span that we could maybe start hitting The Politoad going to be a bit awkward as well But we do have Luxray to kind of fall back on for that We just need to make sure that we are protecting it correctly in this match So as we go up against the king here with these crown they're going to see Amungus and Politoad come out for my opponent, okay well Okay, so we've got a few options here I mean we could even Max Luxray to be honest, obviously the thing that I'd want to do is probably Max and Teleon go Max, Hale and Voltswitch into Because if we go Airstream like they've probably got Cobra Berry, whereas if we go Yeah, if we go Max Hale Storm we could Voltswitch out on the Amungus as well and Probably that combination is going to be enough to get the knockout onto it. So I think that's what we'll do Max Hale and We'll Voltswitch as well. Yeah, and then it gets vanilla looks on the field and then we can start like Spamming Blizzard with our and Teleon. So that's quite a nice option to be careful about using and Well, I say we need to be careful about using our G max move. It doesn't matter We're not setting the rain with it. So that's that's ideal But it'll be interesting to see what this Amungus goes for I'd imagine it's Cobra. I can't imagine it being Yachi Berry at all although We've seen some mad things in our time of course, so that's the thing we will get rid of the rain No, that's a big important thing for us to deal with the the kingdom That's maybe lurking in the back. Do you see the Amungus actually protect here, which is interesting? so We're not going to be able to get our Voltswitch out onto it the reason I wanted to go for it because if it is sashed We just break the sash with the Voltswitch Rather than letting the hail kind of do the damage to the next turn. Okay. Well, the hail is set up poly toad is Probably gonna want to switch out this next turn. I'm interested to see what it does. There's just scald Does that's a cheeky scald that is very cheeky trying to go for the burn there and it does get it which is Super unfortunate and inter luxe ray really really unfortunate and We could really do without the burn there in all honesty, but They have burnt a turn of our max now. What are they gonna switch out? Are they gonna keep Amungus on the field to go down or they're gonna switch it into something and Because we could potentially just go airstream now and and snarl I Think they're gonna switch the poly toad out in all honesty. That's what I would imagine I'll go for the hail again. We're kind of not getting the most out of Intelli on here But at the same time it's a bit of an awkward matchup for us So we have to kind of try and do what we can poly toad switching out They don't have an electric resistor or an immunity here. So and It's nice being able to Get some damage onto the field. Okay. Well, you get rid of the Amungus now whether or not It's an idea to bring in villain looks now because I think poly toads likely to maybe come back onto the field And we don't want to give ourselves. Oh, I'll put ourselves at a disadvantage. That's the one thing. So We'll get looks right off the field Terrachian isn't a bad shout here in all honesty The problem is my opponent still hasn't maxed they're doing all the right things to kind of get around and Install out our max turns, which is not ideal If we've got maybe an airstream off that last turn, it might have been a better idea Just fear the coba berry on the Amungus so much It's nice that we've been able to get rid of the Amungus now and imagine it will be poly toad coming in It's Kingdra, huh? Okay? Now I'd imagine The Dom Manitin to switch straight out to Yeah, it's gonna switch straight out to To poly toad I would presume So I think what we'll do is We'll switch into Luxor and go for an airstream Because then we get the intimidate onto the Dom Manitin we get some decent damage onto Kingdra We'll get We still got Terrachian and vanilla looks in the back at least to to bring our weather in and start disrupting remember vanilla looks as well It does have freeze drive. So we've got a nice way to actually hit the Kingdra and the poly toad if we need to Really imagine in the Dom Manitin to switch out, but we'll see we'll see if it does it doesn't switch out Which is interesting So the intimidate gonna be useful there and imagine probably close combat maybe into a super powers Sorry into the Terrachian slot potentially can't see it going for an ice type attack You see things like rock slide and stuff all the time So Can't really tell what they may be going for here Let's see though. It is a U-turn. They are gonna try and get the poly toad onto the field. So that makes a lot of sense It'll be interesting to see what the Kingdra goes for here It is gonna get its rain up and I'm kind of hoping it goes into what was the Terrachian slot now The Luxor a slot and takes that down and gives us that free switch back into vanilla Which will make this match a lot easier for us And tell you on now with this speed boost we should get the jump on Kingdra We're gonna see the Max Geyser. It's gonna be into Luxor a there's no way you go into and tell you on with that And Luxor a unfortunately not gonna be able to take that not rain boosted anyway, and especially not a critical hit So critical Right, okay. It is life orb. So we do get that Information and we get an airstream off. So we're making some use It's not the best damage. Is it really but I mean, it's not the worst either And maybe a double blizzard. No, no, no way no way double blizzard gets the No way double blizzard gets the Kingdra No chance, but the thing is I think what we'll probably see is The polytode switch out here For the Dom Anatan so we could make The most of this turn where we go for the snipe shot into the polytode Make a call there and go for a freeze dry into the Kingdra. The other option is We could beat up on to our and tell you on slot The only issue doing that is Only issue doing that is That we probably well the Dom Anatan coming in we're not gonna get rid of it And it is gonna be able to hit to rack in first, which is not ideal. So I think we do snipe shots The polytode and I think we just go for a freeze dry into Kingdra And it's four times weak to the freeze dry. We should add speed it as well. So It'd be interesting to see. Okay, no switches getting caught out. All right Well, we get a little bit of damage off there. Not the greatest Okay, but we do activate an eject button. So technically we get that right It's all about this freeze dry, but it looks is pretty strong So I'm hoping we can take down this Kingdra like Kingdra's not the most Known to be the most bulkiest of Pokemon. So even though it is maxed. I'm hoping it's gonna be enough It is enough. Okay. Perfect. The Kingdra killer is here. The king has Hit the building and actually now it works out pretty perfectly because With that speed boost that we got within telemobile to add speed the Dom Anatan We know it's scarfed from the the previous turn so can't protect we can get rid of that and then just freeze dry the polytode And we got track in in the back. So I think we've got this one wrapped up pretty nicely A bit sketchy at times, but we've managed to come through this one and then tell you on Doing some nice work with our little ice cream friend vanilla X I do love these these Pokemon this pairing is is like one of those pairings like I really have like a massive soft spot for I do love and tell you on as one of the new starters the G max form is amazing and Who doesn't love vanilla? Cuz I mean it's an ice cream. It's like it's a big the design is so wacky. It's so cool I do love it a lot and Polytode another one of my favorites, of course polytode and Fortunately, I don't really have that much confidence and rain At the moment maybe that'll change with crown tundra and we get the introduction Some maybe Other Pokemon to help support a little bit Make it a bit more viable and but at the minute rain doesn't feel like it's having the best of times I still think it can work. We've seen some teams that do Have done quite well in the format. I just don't feel like it's it's quite there yet unfortunately, but Definitely has a easier time in series 6 than it did in series 5 for sure But it's still not kind of making the splash that I'd like it to which is sad because rain is definitely one of my favorite archetypes It's definitely a favorite weather of mine, but unfortunately even if something is your favorite doesn't make it good But feel free to disagree with me I'd love to hear any Counter arguments in the comment section down below be great to hear from you guys as it always is okay Well, that's a nice win for us to start with today And I'm kind of hoping we can get the beat-up strategy working in our next episode the next game That would be I'd be really good if we can get the vanillax kind of Teraki in core working Just to show that side of the team off as well Or just a blizzard spam be nice just to just blizzard spam from the good old days I love a bit of blizzard spam the chances of getting a freeze are very very probable So that would always be good and showcasing a freeze Be kind of nice, especially if you had that episode Is it over the weekend? I had the double freeze on the dragon's old team, which was pretty brutal Okay, we got an ex-opponent playing my period and moongus ferrathorn. So we got that double grass type again again So yeah, I mean it makes sense. They do both do different things one the redirection ones obviously disruption And one can just create win conditions super easily, but They're paired up anywhere with the talent flame the dust globes and perma arena. So Pretty heavy trick room team here. You've got the talent flame, which probably is more Offering, I mean it may be a split, you know, you might have tailwind and trick room mods They're like perma arena and right period can work in both both forms And But I think they're more likely to go the trick room route and all honesty Which makes me feel like it makes me feel like we could potentially go Talon For the taunt at least and then tell you I mean the perma arena does scare me slightly and So need to be super careful around that the other option is vanillax and Teraki and we could just go for the beat Up straight away, which is which would be quite a nice. I think we need a moongus And do we bring in telly on or time for it may be talent flames the one because otherwise Let's bring in telly on can we lock it. I don't think we're locked in I think I think we timed out Faffing round again faffing round, but let's see these we got and telly on in vanillax so we can just go You can just spam spam blizzard if we want turn one we'll see what my pond does No, it's wacky in this game. No, I don't think I think Luxury and Talon flame in the back Which is not good because we need we needed a moongus Yeah Okay, well well well well well well. I mean we can blizzard spam here for sure And hope we get a freeze on the the disclops that would be the best case scenario ever I don't see the moongus the moongus has to protect have to protect But we will just go blizzard blizzard There's no reason not to and It will be enough to get rid of the moongus and We've got a good chance to maybe freeze the disclops, which is what we're going for. We'll pray into the RNG gods Let's do it. I believe that we can do a moongus actually switching out. So whatever's coming in is gonna Take an absolute pelting Well, maybe not but we could still freeze the primarina. There's still the chance as the first blizzard not doing as much as we really want and second blizzard Get the freeze do we get a freeze we get a freeze We get the freeze come on there we go the trick room goes up doesn't matter though. It doesn't matter. It's fine It's fine. We get the freeze. That's all that matters. Okay. So excited about that freeze So excited about the freeze. Come on. Let's do this. Let's do this. We'll keep the free Should we just keep going blizzard spam? I mean, they're probably gonna play pain split us So we could potentially max go hydro snipe. I don't feel like it's a good idea to max though at the minute When we're in trick room, it's probably not the best We could potentially just go for a double blizzard again I mean the chances of getting a freeze onto the dust globs pretty good I think the primarina is not likely to have yet. She's got night shade. So maybe okay tell you on Yeah, primarina frozen. This is this is this is awesome. Okay, if we can just keep this come on get another freeze We need another freeze. We need another freeze. That's what we need I'm gonna have to switch and tell you on out. I think this next turn Can we get another? No, there's no freeze there. How's the dust globs got pain split though? That's the big question. That is the question. Um, I think maybe it's good to switch and tell you on out now. Um Potentially get luxe ray onto the field we could get talent flame onto the field as well Um, or we could just protect and tell you on this turn and then go from there Uh, I just worry about the moonga's coming onto the field again if we take We can deal with. Hmm. Yeah, because intelion's definitely in night shade range now Um, it's probably better to keep talent flame Healthy at the moment. We'll go for another free. We'll go for another blizzard, of course. That's what we need to do Um, if they've got pain split they're gonna go onto the vanillax. Um But I don't want to risk intelion here and I think it's better rather than just protecting here taking chip damage Um, it might be quite important later on in this game So there's a night shade yet Since vanillax this time that's interesting predicting the switch Primarinus is frozen. She's ideal As we get another blizzard. Can we get another freeze? Come on. We need that. We need that extra freeze. We don't get it But we got rid of the dust globs. Who would have thought? and Primarina, oh barely hanging on barely hanging on with the skin of its teeth and moonga's gonna come back in now for sure And it's gonna try and disrupt us with its spores Redirection sleep powder and all that jazz, which is not great. But how many turns of trick room have we got left? Two Okay, let's go for a snarl. I mean that the other thing is we could potentially I just worry about the ripheria being in the back as well because I'd imagine you probably have ripheria I don't want to max luxe array and then that'd be the case because we could max and go for um electric terrain so we can't be put to sleep Um, which actually might not be a bad idea in all honesty It's just if the ripheria is the last pokemon in the back. I mean that shouldn't matter too much um Let's go for that. Let's go max lightning and um, yeah, let's just blizzard again with vanillax, I guess But they're gonna spoil If they spoil luxe array then well, that's that I'm not gonna redirect that because there's no redirect in the blizzard So it doesn't make much sense there. It kind of makes more sense to stop the blizzard. Um Because that's the thing that's threatening your moonga's right now would protect You're you're a madman. You are a madman allowing us to get this terrain up Primarina actually thaws it goes doesn't gleam so it's going to get some decent damage off onto vanillax But we do get the electric terrain up, which is the big thing for us here. Um, that is going to protect us against the moonga's um, but I mean The fact that we got the the freeze onto primarina kind of helped us out quite a lot Now, what's the last pokemon going to be if it's something like ferrithorn? We're fine. We're super fine We've got talon flame in the back. We can bring it in heat wave go from there My opponent hasn't maxed yet as well. So we do need to keep that in mind But with the immunity to Okay, it's talon flame. That's perfect Are literally perfect It's not so good. Um In the fact that We've got redirection, um as a thing. Um I mean we could max lightning, but it's not really going to do very much. Is it we could max and knuckle booster attack a bit Um, we can max darkness We'll lower the special defense Which will probably help if vanillax comes back in later on in this match Um, and there isn't a tailwind. Yeah, I mean that's probably not a bad idea to go for max darkness And switch into talon flame. I think I don't really want to lose vanillax and telly on because I feel like they might be Good late game, especially if the brave, but the talon flames gale wings is broke And vanillax will be able to hit first as long as we get a tail tail wind up um I'd imagine we'll probably see a brave bird from the opposing talon flame into ours. Yep And the rage powder coming out. Yeah It's not going to do that. It's not doing anything at all. It really isn't especially because it's coming out fair um I'm going to try and get a tail wind up here I think that's maybe a better thing to do as the trick room should and now Or is it one? Yeah dimension send back to normal. Okay, well, we'll try and get um a tail wind up It's going to be a speed tie though between the two talon flames Now the other option is we go after the amungus Get rid of that but the amungus may protect here Fearing that and they may try and just brave birders. I don't know if they protect though If they protect the amungus then Um, the thing is I think Oh, wow. What are they maxing? Is this talon flame? Or is this amungus? It will come down to it's the talon flame. It comes down to speed tie again though, doesn't it? It will come down to speed tie. Uh, whether we get a tail wind up I'm and I'm hoping we are max speed jolly. So we should have a good chance Looks like we're gonna get it. Oh, maybe not. Maybe not the rage powder thrown off And we do get it. Okay, that's perfect So we've got the speed advantage wind and teleon comes in you can just just double blizzard Max lightning going to come out again. You have to rage powder. This should do a bit more damage Yeah, and that's definitely a blizzard range now, which is ideal Um airstream coming up Okay, that's fine That's super fine because now we bring vanilla looks and get rid of the amungus And then looks where it can take care of the talon flame So that is ideal because even with the plus one speed boost Timeflame. Oh, we got one blizzard left one Okay But I mean it's one is all we need the moongus him protect But the talent and I guess the timeflame could protect as well Um, and then we are a little bit screwed Because then go no blizzards left Blizzard it ourselves out, but let's hope my opponent doesn't do that And go wild charge and we'll go Blizzard I've even pp maxed them. So it's not like we've we've we've not done that. We've actually Um, what we're gonna see rage powder. Perfect. There we go. We've got this game locked it up in the bag Yeah, the the biggest problem there would be the max guard and the protect that deals Obviously the max dark and it's coming in handy there. Uh, gonna be able to get rid of the amungus Timeflame probably goes Flame goes airstream again trying to match our tailwind. Um, just fine because now the wild charge will take it down Um from luxe ray got the electric train boost So there's no doubt about it that luxe ray gonna be able to finish this one off And actually even though we got pretty lucky early on with that freeze Um, it's gonna happen though if you're playing like double blizzard it will happen Um, I mean this has been quite a nice match. I've enjoyed this. Of course I have We have the rng on side But the most important thing is I hope you guys at home have enjoyed it I'd love to hear your comments about the games today. Of course as always We thoughts are on the team and of course if you do try the team out Um, I'll be throwing the rental team up in a moment I would love to hear your thoughts on the team and uh, if you have had a good time playing it So like I say go on over to the rental team and with us churning out so many teams at the minute Obviously producing the rental codes. I am having to take all the teams down that we've featured recently So if there is teams, I keep saying this But as a just a reminder to you guys if there are teams that we've had up And I'm going to be throwing the gengar urchin food team up again on my alternative switch So if there are other teams You would like to see that we have been featuring recently. Um That you would like to see up again. Then do let me know I think I'm gonna have to take the perish down to be honest. Hmm. It's a bit tricky because I know the perish is quite um, I think actually the diggers b1 is probably The one isn't as new so we'll take diggers b down But like I say we're taking it down. It doesn't mean I can't put it back up I can put it on my other switch. I've got five slots free on there that we can use and I can put teams up there so But for today, we will make this one public And Hopefully you guys have a lot of fun with it and tell you on definitely a fun pokemon Especially when it's paired with that vanilla because you can have a lot of fun. The team feels pretty stable as well So, um, I think it will do you good It will serve you well I should say if you do play it on the ladder, but there's the code. All right friends, um Yeah, have fun with it as you can see there's the team The poker face is down in the description like I always mentioned earlier. Um, and yeah Just have a lot of fun with the team if you tried out It is very very fun as you can see we've had two really nice battles with it today And they've both been extremely fun So I'm sure you will have fun if you tried out said fun too many times But as always if you have enjoyed this video, please drop a like on the uh video itself It does really help the channel out And let me know more than anything that you are enjoying this sort of content And also if you are new to the channel, make sure you do hit that subscribe button hit the notification bell So you get all the up-to-date Notifs when these episodes go out as well as our other pokemon content that we do and we do have a lot lined up I am doing a live stream tonight over on twitch and we're going to be looking at the players cup Um preparation for that teams to expect and what you can do to better prepare for that starting this week on friday Registration, I believe it's still open at this moment in time So if you haven't registered and you want to play you can do that and it's all on the switch But I'll be covering that in a video Before the tournament starts.
