 Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode of our road to ranked roulette series. I hope you're all doing well We are here. It's Friday. We are ending up the week with this team We've had an incredible ride so far if you've missed any of the episodes from this week's cycle with our road to roulette team Then click up here You can go back check out the episodes come back to this one because things are heating up Really nicely gone into this last one today. We are on a record Sounds crazy. We're on a record of five losses three wins So we can tie up the week today with two wins That's all we need and we just need to make sure we're taking our time We're believing in our Pokemon and we can really do this Chameco Probably is being one of the stars of the show for sure And and Perloin since its introduction has been incredible. So I'm feeling really good about everything mega and for us It's just a beast. I'm really looking forward to the day The team is always is down in the description below There is a role-pasted and poker pace of the team and make sure you get your nominations over in a community section of the channel There is a Paul there Asking you guys to nominate Pokemon for next week's team So make sure you jump over there nominate a Pokemon and it will be thrown into the wheel for next week's roulette team So make sure you get over there right away Do that and it can be any Pokemon you would like but without further ado, let's get into this final episode with this team It's gonna be sad to see this team go. I've really enjoyed it this week It's been incredibly fun to play and I hope you guys have enjoyed it as well As I say, we're sitting on a record of five losses three wins So we can tie things up today if we can just get a couple of wins and that would be amazing It could all go wrong of course depending on how we play what we come up against But I believe in the team and I think we can do it I think we can do we're gonna start with Giovanni some music to kick us off today Hopefully doesn't take too long to find an opponent and as always guys if you do enjoy this content Please remember to drop a like on the video to subscribe to the channel and remember to leave your comments down below Let me know what your thoughts are on the games that we play what Pokemon You'd like to see featured going forward as well in this series And if you've got any additional ideas for bonus buttons or different rules that we can integrate within the series Do let me know down below. I would love to hear from you guys going forward. So It's looking like it's gonna take a little while to find an opponent So I'm gonna just cut it here And we'll come straight back to when we find that first opponent of the episode And we've got a first opponent of the episode from japan 1539 ready players So we'll jump straight into team preview and see how we can get on this one today Ah, this looks hard. This looks hard We've got a first opponent playing the team of groudon donwings the cross matapulele incinero Kangaskorn and smugle so Predominantly is it going to be trick room? It's probably going to be tailwind with ultran across my pedo with that tabulele there So it's going to be a little bit difficult to get around these pokemon for sure Perloin It's going to find it difficult definitely to operate for sure We definitely need trick room I feel in this game But this feels like a really tough matchup in general Perloin could be very good, but it's the slower fake out of Two of like there's three fake out pokemon, but if that psychic terrain goes up Um, do we bring chameco? probably Let's bring chameco. Let's bring perloin um Do we bring perloin in the back to switch in? No, I don't think we do. I think we bring that Um, do we bring the cross matapulele to this game? Probably not Let's bring cure and black for sure um An amphros mega amphros Should we go for mega amphros or should we go for sylvian? um If you can get the trick room up mega amphros is great. I'm going to lock in with these I'm not feeling I'm not feeling massively confident about this matchup This matchup feels really hard I think we've got to play out of our skins and have a little bit of luck on our side To get a result in this one But you can never give up or lose lose that hope that you've got that you can do something in a mechanic game like this So Let's see what we can do. Um Okay, perloin Chameco chameco really not in a good place right now um Perloin's not in a bad place um Especially with the fake out there We can shut down the incineroar for sure, but we're not going to be able to get a trick room up Cure and black is probably the best thing to bring in with your solvest to soak up an attack from the unicrosma um Do we just fake out the incineroar? uh I mean the dawn wings isn't really pressuring us too much from a perloin perspective So I think yeah, we'll just shut down the incineroar. I mean, we could see the top of lele come in We're not going to I don't think Because we would have seen them switch up before us um We just do get that fake out into the incineroar preserve the sash on the um Perloin and we're going to see the eject button activate on that incineroar Which is a nice tech there for my opponent. I wonder if we see a trick room set up from The dawn wings now. I wouldn't mind if that is actually the case I really wouldn't like if we see If we do see trick rooms that I'm actually That helps us out a bunch But I don't have fucking no So ground on hitting the field Trick room Nice, okay right now I'm gonna go for a charm and an earth power into the ground on here And we'll see I mean we we might see the incineroar come in for then across my here It probably does feel threatened from the perlin potentially it might stay on the field though But the ground on definitely susceptible to to charm Uh lowering that attack by two stages So it's not going to be hitting as hard as it would be normally as long as it's not um special variant as the earth power Wow Doing so much damage pull perlin. Can we get through this turn that? Oh, it's special Oh No Okay, so the charm doing nothing there Hey, we are gonna get an earth power into the ground on which is which is good. Um, definitely Definitely good Um, and we lowered special defense as well Um, so maybe a dragon pulse can get it To make it out for us after that drop Because we do have shadow ball with our Cure him so we can hit into that dawn wings and do some nice damage there It's all about whether the dragon pulse can get the ground on from this range And I'm gonna say I'm gonna say we probably can um I'm for us is deceivingly powerful Uh, so let's go for the dragon pulse into the ground on it's mega evolve and go for that shadow ball into the dawn wings And see if we can pick up the knock out there. We're going to see the ground on switch out So like the incident we're all going to come back onto the field, which is fine It's going to go for that intimidated shuffle We've seen it do so many times before What's the dawn wings going to do? I wonder if it has a z move that would be a little bit worrying If it does because it's going to be able to get that off before we can attack with cure and black We do get the mode breaker activated. Let's see what the dragon pulse damage is like into this incident It's going to do too much damage Wow Yeah, this is a z move Oh Oh, no, are you kidding? It's tectonic rage Oh, it's a groundium Out of everything we could have just magnet rise there as well with amfross Can amfross take this I doubt it is no way No That's that's disappointing. That is very disappointing. I wonder if her shadow ball will be able to get this cure I don't think it will be no No chimeko coming in Uh, we do have the hypnosis that we can maybe utilize here So we've still got a lifeline a little bit of a lifeline. It's the tapu later It comes in later though that becomes a bit of a problem and the fact that we can't protect with Oh man tectonic rage. What? What? Um, okay, let's go for an earth power No, do we go for earth power into incinerole? No, I think we go shadow ball and hypnosis Yeah, hypnosis incident across my hopefully get that on onto it I think we keep our z trick room if we can for later in this game It's just not I just don't see it happening though fake out coming out into Yeah, okay We needed that we needed that to hit. We really did need that to hit It's gonna go for the moon guys being this is probably enough to get a chimeko and I think that's gonna be game now the The the tech rage was just too much for us. I just didn't expect like I don't expect that z move I expect the the ghost team. I don't expect the tectonic rage and best of one What can you do a what can you do? We will go for a shadow ball. I think it's all but over now. We're down to one pokemon. My opponents still got four pokemon I didn't like the look of this matchup when we first started Losses six wins three we can only we can only make this a six four A six four result, which is a little bit unfortunate. There's the moon guys being and my opponent taking the win there Hmm I mean in hindsight what we could have potentially done with pearl line as well as went for a foul play into that dawn wings Which would have maybe been a little bit better than than losing it to an earth power The earth power was an indicator for my opponent Early on but showing what a a difficult matchup that was but will not let it get to us We'll we'll try and get a win to finish off the week. That's the main thing if we can have that last that last Game with a win that makes things a bit better, doesn't it? It's so tough to take though. I've got to keep reminding myself as well, you know I get I get so upset with like the the losses and I think I want to be doing I want to be doing better for this series So it's a bit more entertaining and and we're doing stuff But you've got to remember that I keep reminding myself We're using like pokemon that I never used before against teams We're at the end of a season as well Where everyone's got a really solid team as well. So we're using them and any wins we get are like a real bonus And I do think as well as we go on We're going to have weeks where we get a really good selection of pokemon Where we get all the utilities that we need like like one of the things I was mentioning was the pearl line Like the fake out support or redirection support if we get tools like that in our team that we can utilize It makes options so much more viable So pearl line is a great option that we've had this week. The little kitty is doing so good Probably one of my favorite picks as well this week. I think it's been amazing since it's come in but um We need options like that to help us get to get Get a cohesive team to get things going and and to get memes going as well We need those options to kind of marry up. So we need to pokemon potentially with two Two things that can help us get a meme going. It's you know a strategy going It's not like you can have it on one pokemon, but if you can't support it with the rest of the team It's just not going to work. So sometimes it's not going to work. Sometimes the days we've got the bonus buttons Which are going to help we're going to have a brand new bonus button next week. So we'll be introducing that on Monday So I'll be you're excited for that guys. Um But we'll finish up with the cross my vision to music to data and homage for Cross my it's going to take a little bit of time to find our next opponent So we'll cut right now and we'll come straight back to when we've got our next opponent So sit tight and we'll be right back my friends and we've got our next opponent of the episode So let's hop straight into team preview and see what we're going up against now Okay, so our next opponent is running a team of kaioka tapu finny meta cross the toga tomorrow Incineroar and requiser. So we've got a real good call We've got potentially two megas on the team between the meta cross and that Requiser we've got very little speed control my opponents end of the field They've only really got icy wind No options of trick room. No options of tailwind You're going to look at this team and think probably more like a trick room team Now the beauty about cure and black is it does have that terravolta ability which we'll ignore The toga tomorrow as well as our amfrost So if my opponent tries to protect their kaioka tapu finny from these elective type attacks with that pokemon It's not going to work So I think the one thing that we want to try and do is definitely try and get a trick room up and then get Cure black and our amfrost onto the field and start checking out some damage Yeah, I think the selection is fine. I feel pretty confident in this matchup So I feel like we can actually do some stuff here So hopefully it all works out pretty nicely for us and we can do some get a win to end the week It's all we want is one as one more win And I think if we can get four wins in a week, that's not bad. That's like two days of straight winning When you look at it like that if we can get another win Which isn't too bad But we've had that we had that incredible win the other day against joe's there Which was which is really worthwhile And I think like I said at the time when you get a win like that It makes the whole series the whole week worthwhile, doesn't it? I'm going to see metagross and tablifini come out for our opponent here We're going to see the tablifini activate that misty surge get the misty train onto the field protect against any sort of stars conditions And then the metagross come out pairing up with it as well very nicely. Um Tablifini could have taunt For sure. Do we go for just a trick room rather than the z move or do we go for it? Um, I think we go for the trick room Definitely. Um And probably just fake out the tablifini here. Yeah Fake out the finny get the trick room up Just I don't want to get taunted by the the finny here could potentially go for that And that would put the stoppers on everything we're trying to do We don't want to use that as a move just yet. We might be able to utilize that later on in this game Um as we do get the trick room set up now from our side of the field I wonder if we see metagross go for It's mega evolution now If it does that's that's not bad. Uh, chameco probably better off getting anfros onto the field now than acura and black And we could on call that metagross It's a nice option. Um, and I think it will go for the on call just to lock it into that protect And perline cause and all sorts of havoc it means that anfros gets in and it's got a little bit more time to to maneuver We are going to see the metagross go for that mega evolution here. So We're not too worried about what it does though because we're locking it into that Or our protect bear that we've already seen. So there's the on call perline being a boss the boss cat Best cat I would argue there's a taunt now coming out from the type of finny into the anfros But that's fine. We don't mind about that now metagross gone for the protect there And it's going to be kind of forced out now. I'm going to mega evolve I'm going to chuck a thunderbolt into the metagross and I'm going to go for an on call into The type of finny to to lock it into that on that that taunt prevent it from doing anything here Metagross going to switch out. We're going to see coyoga hit the field ideal for us here So we're going to be able to get a big fat mega anfros thunderbolt off into that Put it in range for a knockout the next turn and we're keeping this pressure up on My opponents side of the field and perline putting in all the work here For us really being able to uh to shut down what my opponents trying to do Just got to keep in mind that we've got to have that We've got the the trick room in the back So we want to try and make use of that again later in this game if we can because we're probably not going to get The majority of work done in this this cycle of trick room that we want to be able to do We do get the on call into the type of finny and now shut that down by locking it into that taunt Which we don't mind. It's probably going to go into the perline anyway. Um, and if it does, that's fine If you switch out this next turn pretty safely. Wow look at the damage there critical hit. Okay It's been unfortunate. Oh, we're going to see a twinkle tackle come out from this type of finny It's going to be into an anfros and we're going to lose it Oh, no No, I don't want to lose anfros just yet Oh, no, it's going to be guardian of a lola Okay, that's fine. I mean I prefer this to a twinkle tackle, which probably would have taken anfros down We'll take us down to um 25 health, but that's all right. It does put us in range for an an extreme speed Uh, but what we'll do we'll just go for a far play into the coyote We'll go for a thunderbolt into the tap of finny and remember it is locked So it's likely going to switch out if it sticks around it's just going to taunt stuff. So that's fine The perline sitting pretty happy now still good at sash Still going to be really able to disrupt and do a lot of damage to the majority of things Metagross going to hit the field once again. You're going to see it take a thunderbolt in the in the process here um Kyle just going to protect And puts itself in a really awkward position where it can be Uncalled this next turn do you get the thunderbolt into that metagross and do some really nice damage there? And I think what we'll do our taunt does we're off. I'm going to thunderbolt into the coyote I'll go slow this time. I expect the coyote to maybe switch out here I'm going to file play into the metagross. Metagross could go for bullet punch here But it is it isn't going to be super effective against anfros. So I would say we're probably quite likely to survive this Yeah Yeah, confident Quietly confident. Um, and yeah thunderbolt picking up the knockout onto the coyote here and file play We'll be able to get this metagross Heavy rain lifting and this might Be close enough for us to start doing some good work Our trick room is going to end pretty soon, but we've got to remember here does end now Ready for that type of finny to come back on to the field We do have chameco in the back and we've got acura and black as well. And if it is the requiser Along with that type of finny We do have charms so we can really reduce the the attack and power of the the requiser If we would like to We've definitely got to watch out for the taunt But the thing is we've still got a z trick room that we can utilize with chameco So that's the beauty about not utilizing that early on. I'm going to switch in chameco here I'm going to go for a charm into requiser. Hopefully try and reduce that attack Start down by two stages and really make sure that it's not going to be effective at tall going into the turns of this game. So there's anfross taking a break Probably won't come back in until that requiser has left the field Okay, we're going to see requiser just go for a protect here Do go for the charm type of finny going to probably taunt the pearl on here here Shut that down finally once and for all and stop us from being able to really do very much damage here. Okay I'm going to protect the Chameco and I'm going to switch in and for us just to just to sack it because I think you probably attack into the pearl on here Um, if not, then we get the pearl on switch in the next turn. It's just the idea of trying to get pearl on back in Untaunted with that fake out so we can make use of the trick room here from Chameco And then get curing black onto the field which would be able to easily deal with Either of the the type of finny probably the mega ray once my opponent has decided Well, they can't actually mega evolve the ray because in the metagross I do forget. So it's just regular old ray here. Yeah. Oh sword stance. I'm not so good It's not what you like to see. There's a taunt there. Okay Things get a little bit trickier now. Um, oh, this is tricky. This is tricky And let's bring in pearl line for Chameco And let's try and get a dragon pulse onto this requiser They've got to attack something. I think we probably see a taunt into the pearl line here But if we do lose our frost it does mean that we're going to get the Chameco back onto the field so Yeah, yeah, and then the taunt I imagine from Yeah, okay, that's fine You get the Chameco onto the field And we need to fake out the ray And then Z trick room and then we've got the hypnosis Z trick room It's easy enough for the the type of finny just to taunt at Chameco here, which is fine Um, the problem is though that we can't really utilize as a trick room Oh god from moon blast huh It's interesting So we're actually going to be able to utilize Especially if the uh misty train disappears this next turn Which it quite possibly could We're going to be able to stop putting things to sleep if the misty train i'm sure it does disappear this turn No, it must be the next turn um What do you foul play? Do we switch? i'm going to foul play the ray quasi And i'm just going to protect do we Hypnosis as well No, i'm going to protect Chameco because the ray could protect you It's not likely to Yeah, it does protect actually, okay, that's fine There's a taunt trying to shut the hypnosis down yet Oh And uh, okay, this is this is ideal um Let's go for can we lock the ray quasi? It's going to go for extreme speed. I'm going to try and charm it And i'm going to go for the hypnosis into that type of finny It's going to extreme speed. Yeah into the pearl on to get rid of it Yeah, that makes a lot of sense But if we can shut down this type of finny that makes things a lot easier for us Because we can try and shut down this ray quasi the next turn hopefully chameco can take a plus two extreme speed Not sure if we can but We might be able to Okay So let's get in cura. I think we've got to attack the finny now with fusion bolt And go for the hypnosis into the ray quasi So yeah fusion bolt the finny And hypnosis the ray. I think the ray probably protects here That's that's why i'm making this play because I think you try and stall out type of finny waking up. Yeah And if you can wake up this turn you obviously get the taunt into The chameco, but this is why I want a fusion bolt here And then the next turn we can actually just double up the ray with an ice beam And a psychic rather than the hypnosis Type of finny stays asleep So that's fine and we should be able to lock this one up It's not being as straightforward as you can kind of imagine it would have been Ice beam into ray. It's sash is broken. We can go for that hypnosis as well It has to get the double protector now. I think my opponent has to it's gone for extreme speed. Can chameco Oh, it's into curing black. That's fine. We get the hypnosis there shut it down So if this ice beam for some reason doesn't pick up the knockout, which it's definitely gonna We're in such an incredible position next turn to pick up a knockout Onto the finny we've got to be careful with the moon blast Of course, it's still going to be doing a decent chunk of damage But it actually stays asleep. So we're in an incredible position to potentially close this one out Dimensions turn back to normal Um, but a fusion bolt Like we should take a moon blast from the finny. Um, and I'm just gonna psychic as well Because I think chameco even from this range is going to be able to pick up the one on one Even if we're just going to see another taunt here just to shut that trick room down But not going to go for it now. The fusion bolt will be enough and curing black and chameco Picking up the victory for us in this last one. So End of the week We are sitting on four wins Six losses. I think that's right. I think that's right. Yeah So we've had we've had more wins this week than we did last week, which is good And I think the team has proved itself to be worthy enough. It's just got some pretty bad matchups like august This is terrible. Um, we're relying heavily on something like perloin To to help us out there, which is maybe a bit too much at times But I mean the team's been incredible massive props to each and every one of you for all of the suggestions that we had Nominations for the wheel this week. Make sure you do get them in for next week. I hope you've enjoyed this run with the team I've had an incredible time this week. So I'm hoping you guys have enjoyed it as well We'll be back on monday with a brand new wheel Our fortune where we'll get our new team of six So make sure you do get those nominations in over the over the next few days Um to make sure they're included in the wheel for monday's episode And uh, we'll end things up there guys. Have an incredible weekend Whatever you're up to and I will catch up with you all very soon. Thanks so much for tuning in ticket and bye. Bye
