 Hello friends and welcome back to another episode here on the channel. My name is Lee also known as Osiris and in today's episode We're gonna be continuing on with our series seven content and featuring a double a genie team today in thunderous Therian form and landerous Therian form and then the rest of the team made up with the anti metagross Amungus and tapu finny So one of the reasons why I kind of had the double genies in mind was Reggie Leckie at the minute is gone crazy. It's a very strong Pokemon got absolutely blistering speed and It's something that you need to have checks for any team Otherwise, it's just gonna overrun you and build so much momentum that you can't really come back So one of the things that I was looking for was ways to really pin it down and really slot down a lot Stop that momentum and between landerous Therian and thunderous Therian It they get completely walled out So that was one point where we started from obviously with the vault absorb Reggie Leckie can't do any damage, but anything but just heal thunderous Therian form and obviously the ground type on landerous Makes it immune anyway And then the kind of team evolved from there We threw metagross in with the weakness policy and time because now it gets access to that new hidden ability in a focus Making it incredibly good because it's immune to intimidate support Obviously gets bulldoze as well to help proc the metagross and then run on the team off with Amungus to kind of help with The trick room matchups and then tap with Finny Which is just generally a very strong Pokemon at the minute and fills a few gaps in the team that we've got apparent So as always in these episodes, we'll have a couple of games with the team Talk about how it functions and then I'll throw the rental team up at the end of the episode There will be a poker face down in the description below and without further ado Let's jump on to the ladder and get our first match underway Okay, we've got a first opponent of the episode and look at this. They're playing Haha, this is the team that we've actually just featured in our previous episode So this is gonna be interesting a lot of things to think about here Obviously the Reggie Drago there with the tailwind support from the Tornados and is gonna be very very dangerous for us Obviously that we know how strong the rom washes. It's gonna be a very tough matchup for us. Honestly. Okay What are we gonna do? I think we definitely need Finny in this matchup for sure And Now we could go Meta cross and tie to be honest go for the bulldoze I think they're gonna lead rotten wash, but then the Meta cross is not good. It's all I think we'll go thunderous as a lead and I will bring thunderous and Tapu Finny I'm gonna bring and tie and Meta cross in the back. Okay, I'll go that This is gonna this is a really difficult matchup and this is like our team Can you believe it? Okay Literally, I'm not and I'm recording this not long after actually uploading that video So it's really nice to see someone and using the the team Say how good it is team against team But here we go. There's the mama swine. Yep okay, well Mama does have life orb, so it is a bit it is a bit scary I Think what we'll do is We can't obviously stop the tailwind the tailwind is is coming the thing is We've got an option where we can grasp not into the mama swine and we will pick up the knockout onto the mammal But there's not really much we can do to get around Like it's gonna attack into the thunderous. I think you go for the thunderous all day long here There is an option where we could potentially max and go for Max vortex into the mama swine Kind of limits our max and ability for the rest of the game, but at the same time I think it's probably Worth while the only issue is if they switch the mama swine here to really boom Or if they go max quake into the tapu finny But I'm hoping we see an icicle crash from the mama swine into the tornado I think that would make a lot of sense. Yeah, it's definitely our team. Definitely our team I'm probably the only person that has a dive ball mama swine. I'm the only person. It's crazy enough to do that I just I'm just obsessed with dive balls. They're just yeah the best ball best ball and not best ball But like my favorite ball, but you know, okay, well As a mama maxing Like it would make sense for my opponent here to go for max quake because then you know They are ensuring that they're gonna take an attack from us And the finny and the thunder I don't know if the thunderous even feels like it's a threat to my opponent to be honest Like do they know that we go grass? No, probably not. I don't know. I don't know I think we've made probably the better the better move overall. They're never gonna quake into the thunderous. So Yeah, they make the better play here going into the finny Thunderous, I just didn't I just I just I just bowled it. I just bowled it. That was a simple as Simple as Okay. Well, we are gonna get Some damage onto the mama swine has got that special defense boost Which is definitely gonna help it out But we do get the rain up as well, which is nice. So There is that aspect to it all right well, I think we pull a switch back to thunderous now And I'm gonna stall a turn of Their max and stall a turn of ours as well. I'm just gonna max guard cuz it's likely They go on do they double into finny here, I think they go max quick into enti Although no enti is not posing any threat right now. So Did the switch from my end might be obvious? So if we get caught out, I mean if we get caught out then that's that it just take my Imaginary hat off to my opponent for calling the thunderous coming back in here max guarding, huh? Okay, okay. Well, don't mind this too much. We're gonna see Tony this dude Just goes a slash into us just to get a bit of chip damage onto us Now I think they double finny here in all honesty Like what's gonna be more useful overall in this match for us. I think probably Finney could be very useful like if if red u drago's in the back. I think I would go after I Think what we'll do is switch back into enti Pull it we'll pull that switch and we'll go after we'll go after the the mammo with the rain We should get it. I mean they're gonna be plus two special defense but they're gonna take recoil damage and We have got the rain kind of boosting the system. So it'll be very close Um first picking a knock up out Yeah, slash. Yeah, we're just doing nothing and Quake, yeah, okay. Where we gone could have stayed in with thunderous again Again, okay. Well, we do manage to take that And this is just prokka wiki berry And it's all about whether or not we can get the mammoth swine now. I feel like Maybe maybe we'll see Yeah, okay now the mammo's gone now thunderous feels a lot more free now like it's gonna have a way better time. We still got Finney kicking around which is always very useful. Um, I think my opponent's gone one turn a tailwind left And this is a thing like I know this team that I'm playing again So I know the threats I got an advantage here, you know, and it's still difficult for me Like we still this team you got to play very carefully around speed control if you're playing the team I'm featuring today. Um The pranks to tailwind and stuff like that can be tricky. So you've got to just take your time with the team Um, when you are playing it. Okay. Well, they're in center all coming in That's fine. Um What's the last one? It's not really boom. They haven't got really boom. No way. So they definitely 100% haven't got really boom I think I think they've got reggie drago in the back If I'm completely honest with you. I think they got reggie drago in the back So I'm gonna take this opportunity Huh, I could just double protect here on the fake out I think I'm gonna do that and then the next turn they're gonna have to tailwind again And I think that's what they'll do And then I'm going to Hold our switch met across in Because I I'm gonna keep finny For later because I just have this inkling that it is reggie drago in the back It doesn't make any sense to bring it in now If you had rotten wash or if you had really boom you'd have brought it in you'd have brought it 100% brought it in now There's no way you wouldn't you would get rid of the finny and then you like you create that wind condition So there's the slush on after the anti and what we're gonna see from potting shot Huh, okay Really interested to deal with that anti. Okay. Well, we're gonna go bulldoze And we're gonna bring in met across Let's see. Let's see what happens But we're probably gonna see a tailwind potting shot and imagine and then reggie drago hit the field Although you don't need the tailwind it does help out a bit obviously with the bulldoze being a thing There's the tailwind. Yep, that's fine potting shot go on be into the met across perfect We get the bulldoze Yep Okay, now we're in a nice spot Because we can bulldoze again the next turn protect met across and we're in a Phenomenal spot Incineroar probably will out speed us still with the tailwind and the rain has stopped So we will go for that bulldoze again the missing terrain leaving the field I'd imagine we'll probably see Reggie drago come in now off the potting shot But it's not the worst thing in the world because we still got finny to bring in And all we really need we don't necessarily need to have finny on the field We just need the terrain which will help us out a bunch They may just go for the attack into the met across as well. I may not want to switch around We'll see we'll see we'll see But it'll be interesting to see Yeah, just straight switch is a drago It's Rotom Okay, okay. Well that changes things that changes a lot of things because we're just wasting a turn here with enti But we do have snarl There's the air slash And it does so much damage doesn't it so much damage Okay I don't really fancy keeping in town. I mean, hmm. Well thunderous here is in incredibly good Um But I don't really want to switch it in for enti just yet. I think we'll switch into hapu finny here And we will go for It's hard because like hmm Actually, I think what we'll do is we'll go for a snarl I might just drop enti completely and we'll go for an ice punch because if I can get rid of the tornado So let me get rid of the tailwind. Uh, I know it's sashed. So Okay They're gonna chase down the met across I think oh they got a nasty plot, which is fine I kind of I'm all right with that Because now we get rid of the tornadoes and now we just need to stall out this tailwind and we're in a good spot Or a good ish spot The nasty plot it is Is worrying though And this is why rotham so good as well You know, I mentioned in the video featuring this team the the regi drago team I can rotham is an incredibly strong pokemon against something like met across when you haven't then you aren't running zen headbutt So if you haven't seen that video go back check it out I'll link it up above for you and it'll be linked in the description be linked everywhere so you can find it Um, okay, instead of coming back in we've got the fake up pressure here So we'll just protect just going to double check see tailwind runs out, which is perfect this next turn um So then we can snarl again It's whether or not they fake out our nasty plot Which would be the play I think I think if my opponent does that that causes us all sorts of problems But then we still have torn thunderous to come in Um, what we need to do is get rid of the incinero, which we can do the next turn Um, we can snarl stomp and tantrum And then thunderous can come in I know we need to bit a chip on to the rotham to to deal with it and we still got full pokemon So what kind of in a decent spot? But like I say, I do have the kind of advantage here because I know the team because it is our team my team um, there's the the fake out And we can see another nasty plot. So there's the play a really good play like really good play in this position It's really difficult for my opponent, but they're doing all the right things, you know, um Yeah, but we have to we have to snarl Is it better to snarl? Yeah, I think we have to snarl. I don't mitigate the damage. They're going to go after the metagross It's just whether or not that I don't know if the rotham allowed speed metagross. That's the issue Okay, well, I don't think we've got too many options here I don't think no, I think metagross will add speed the rotham We don't have much bleed investment on that rotham. So I think Okay, well, we avoid In snarrow, but that's not that's not the big thing. Yeah, okay. That's fine. Okay So we we've got a pretty speedy metagross as well And that's to mainly take advantage of the bulldoze really. Um, because you don't want to be too slow Hydra bump coming out and we will lose Metagross. Yeah, it makes sense to do that. I think you could have probably got away with a thunderbolt there Just to be a little safer if that misses then it gets even more difficult. Um, and we'll bring thunderous in And I think Well, we don't want to lose thunderous just yet. We need to kind of I think what we'll do is we'll sacred fire While we've got the opportunity to and we'll protect if we can get a burn This anti just doesn't burn anything though. Literally the amount of games they've had with this anti And sacred fires got like a 50% burn rate And I'm not counting the towns and the misty terrains being up on the field. Honestly It just it's literally not burnt. I mean, I've fired about three into a landerous. Um earlier on today And like none of them burnt and I just needed one just one I still won the match, but it was it was like come on me break But this anti just doesn't seem to have hot enough sacred fires See there's my point exactly Right. There's another nasty plot Okay, it is just boosting itself up I think we'll go for another sacred fire try to get the burn because we need to Try and and get the the rotom down to a point where the citrus berries propped because thunderous If it's below 50% I think thunderous can maybe deal with it. This is so difficult. This is so difficult We needed a mungus here But then we needed the rest of the pokemon to kind of help out with with the majority of the team that we're facing so come on Nasty plot. I must be like plus five at the minute. I don't know plus four plus five Like whatever it's going to hit on my team. It's going to pick up the knockout. I think you have to target thunderous here though Yeah, so there's a misty train It doesn't matter about the sacred fire because rotom's obviously not affected by it being a levitating pokemon. Um You get another one. So it's doing decent damage, you know the charcoal boosting. Ah, that's the first burn We've got that really helps us out a bunch So I think that helps us solidifies The the chance for us to take it down now. We should lose finny here and then Yeah So finny will go down and then we get the double up with thunderous and enti And we'll be able to deal with with rotom from there. So that should lock the game up first at this point um Yeah, the sacred fires are doing so much damage even though it's resisted With the charcoal and a lot of attack investment enti is doing a crazy amount of damage So here we go. It should be the last turn pending any disasters More sacred fire and we will go for a thunderbolt We do have grass not on thunderous. Obviously I mentioned it earlier on in there in the episode And it does knock out mama swine. It's just It's difficult. You kind of need to have a bold position where you've got a moongus to help you kind of mitigate We're just going to see the protect I guess stalling out the sacred fires thinking but I have maxed them out. So we're we're kind of all right on that that front um Yeah, you kind of need the redirection Because you obviously can't you can't intimidate mama swine for the most part with the obvious ability um So you kind of need the redirection support and if you can get that then the grass not will 100 always knock out a mama swine Um with the life orb. It's like 154 percent minimum. I think it's nuts Like thunderous theory and is so powerful We haven't got to seen the double genies yet though. We've got to see one genie in this match Okay, we didn't even need any help there. So very good game to my opponent I hope you've been enjoying the team. Give us a shout out in the comments if you do see this episode and um, I hope you've been enjoying it pleasure playing you my friend and uh, we will move swiftly on to our next Opponent of the episode. Okay. We've got an ex opponent playing a team of regi gigas wheezing Lander is metagross tapu finny and zaptos So we've got that infamous that infamous call there of regi gigas and wheezing the first thing It's standing out from my opponent's team there for us obviously with the Neutralizing gas it takes away the slow start from the regi gigas got to be careful around it But the key is to deal with the wheezing take the wheezing out the big the equation And then the matchup gets a lot easier. There's not very much speed control my opponent's team They've got max airstream options on the landeris and the zaptos But outside of that maybe icy wind on the finny but not really too much else Obviously max strike on the regi gigas. I think here i'm going to go end time metagross I feel like it's a decent lead for us. Um, I think I bring thunderous theory and I think landeris as well Honestly landeris feels good in the last slot. So yeah, we'll go with that. We'll bring the double genies Gotta bring the double genies. It's all about the double genies in this episode and this It's not really it's about all the pokemon, you know enti was like probably the starting point Um, initially before throwing in thunderous landeris when I was looking at ways to kind of deal with regi lecky Um, but the the the fact that enti gets in a focus now is just incredible It took me so long to get an ability patch. Honestly, I'm going to do a separate video on the ability patch Because I feel like it's warranted. There's a rant incoming. But um, yeah, I'll save that for another video But yeah, it took me so long to get okay. So there's the wheezing And there is the regi gigas and we can bulldoze And oh, we haven't got a clear body though. Have we so it's a little bit awkward It's a little bit. It is a little bit awkward. Maybe we can max bulldoze and go We could bulldoze Just the max strike is going to do a lot of damage and probably take down enti as well, you know, we could sacred fire Hmm, I don't really want metagross to get burnt. That's the only issue Like we could Okay Let's just bulldoze I just hope it's a slow wheezing Oh, we run out of time. Are you okay? Well, we're just going to protect metagross Okay, well the slow starts going to actually begin Okay Faffing around faffing around too much. Ideally, I would have liked to have bulldozed um But they're not going to max the regi gigas which I was kind of expecting I was expecting regi gigas to max got max strike into enti um It's probably good. We didn't go for the sacred fire to be honest just because The misty terrain would have medicated that anyway, so we wouldn't have been able to really make much use of it All right, when we get the speed drop on both opposing pokemon, which definitely helps. Uh, we're going to lose We're going to lose enti to a giga impact. Well, we're not That's how much the slow start affects Like honestly, it's it's horrendous. Well, I mean Do we max quake or max? I think we just I think Max steel spike for sure into the finny. Let's just do that. Could max quake to get the special defense boost But I think it's all right. I think it's all right And we'll just bulldoze while you've got the opportunity to the regi gigas isn't doing anything here. We may lose enti This turn, um, but our clear body is still in effect. Now the thing to do probably here would have been switch maybe the wheezing back in um Although Probably not, you know, it's just the only thing it would do is take away a clear body and you're going to lose wheezing for it And it's not really worth it The long run we get our bulldoze off We get a bit of chip damage onto both opposing pokemon and we are going to be Able to get the max steel spike into the type of finny, which is now sitting on minus two Um, I don't know if a plus two. Is it going to be enough? Yeah, of course it is. Okay, there we go And we make sure we get rid of the finny, which is amazing get to keep enti around for another turn Uh, and it might be worth switching in lander us. Honestly the next turn just to get an intimidate onto that regi gigas The other option is obviously just stay in and just go for another bulldoze if the wheezing comes back onto the field, which it does um We don't need to worry about being burnt now either, which is nice. So we could just go for Um, I probably shouldn't go for the bulldoze because obviously a clear body's gone I think the switching to lander us is not a bad one Get the intimidate drop and Yeah, just go for another steel spike into the regi gigas because the defense boosts are going to help us out massively Like regi gigas is really really relying on that massive physical attack. So reducing it is going to help us out to no end And here it comes. I think this is going to be The big bad gigas it is maxing unless it's wheezing Nah, it's a regi gigas. Of course it is such a beast. It's such a cool pokemon I am going to make the team like I'm going to make a team around this pairing Like I mentioned at the very beginning of this week It is something I'm working on but it's not something I want to put up until it's 100 right because I think I've got it I've got to get it right to put it out because I think there's so many holes like if any of you watched Marcus's moxie boosted Um like take on it He did an episode on on this pairing and I I have to agree with like the majority of stuff He says it's very clunky like wheezing is very difficult to uh, I think you've got to get the speed tier like spot on with it and um I think fill in a lot of holes that this pairing has So we do get a crit there take down the regi gigas, which is Pretty lucky, but I think it's probably not going to Effect the outcome of the match too much. I don't think um and lander is coming back onto the field Hmm. Okay. Well, I mean Just ice punch and go for Let's go u-turn I mean, hmm. We even care about the lander is let's just steal spike the wheezing while we've got the opportunity to It's probably babi uri berry, but there's the match cancelled and we do pick up A nice victory. So that is very good game to my opponent And uh, at least we see the team in a little different aspect there with the boulder stuff going on in that last game And we'll uh, we'll jump straight over now and get you that rental code friends, right friends Here is the rental code for this episode's team the metagross lander is enti Amungus tapu fini and thunderous theory inform We didn't get to see as much of the thunderous theory informants I would have liked to I would have liked to have seen a match against regi alecki or something like that I would have been very good to kind of showcase it in that situation But it is a very strong pokemon base one on one speed out speeds the majority of a lot of the threats in this format Um, the there is an option obviously to consider if you want to tweak this team going forward I've I've thought about personally putting maybe bulldoze on lander's theory inform and trying also to integrate Maybe jolteon into the team because it gets a discharge. So you would take advantage of your vault absorb You'd have access to fake tiers and a lot of different options as well. So Jolteon thunderous something i'll be playing around with I think it's something that has a lot of potential But it would really disrupt the whole balance of the team right now So I think this overall is quite good So you wouldn't get to see the little other moongas today, but it is there the redirection is very useful The yachi berry on it as well helps out against glastria Which is obviously a big trick room threat at the minute in the new format But all in all I feel like the team is very solid It does a very nice job against a lot of things and if you try it out, I hope you have a lot of fun with it I hope you've enjoyed today's episode if you're new to the channel Do consider subscribing for more of this content and the other pokemon content that we do here on the channel And I'm going to just leave it there Thank you so much for tuning in as always friends Have a great rest of your day and I'll catch you all for another episode very soon. So until then take it and bye. Bye
