Why Competitive Players Misunderstood Miraidon

Everyone wrote off Miraidon - but then, somehow, it won a tournament. Here's how.

#Pokemon #ScarletViolet #WolfeyVGC

This video features lots of different thumbnails from lots of different artists. You can find them below.

"It's not very effective..."
Miraidon: That sign can't stop me, because I can't read

[WeebHistory]

Part of the problem is we all thought Miraidon's signature move was Electro Drift when it was in fact, Volt Switch.

[joshsmith]

What I learned is gamefreak looked at Dracovish and said "what if it was a bike"

[milkteawaygalaxy]

Really funny to me that the key for Miraidon winning was to stop building it with strategy in mind, and just build it for raw DPS, with a team to support that. Incredible. No thoughts, only murder.

Nice to know that the good 'ol "just hit them really, really hard" strategy is still fluorishing.

[Greenomb]

24:40 “It’s not very effective but it’s very effective, if you catch my electro drift.” Lmao god tier commentary

[murilo]

"How many times are you going to change the thumbnail?"

World champion: "Yes"

[MrMitchbow]

“It’s not very effective, but it’s very effective if you catch my electric drift” is pure bars. Need need her and Frankie from Foster’s Home on more matches

[cyphate]

For anyone interested, it takes 9 seconds for incineroar to appear in a video about an underrated legendary.

[LightsOnTrees]

Genuinely can't believe that we've got to the point where we're setting up tailwind for a mon with 135 base speed lmfao

[hamtario]

The joy in wolfe's voice as he asks "would you like to see a magic trick?" Has made my day

[arinainarina]

that ending montage so endearing LMAO i love how excited and shocked wolfe and aaron and the other announcers (im sorry recognize them 😢) are over miraidon, especially the synched, “IT’S DISCHARGE!!” at 26:01

[XC]

I love how Miraidon's success is Unga Bunga more. Power up what it was good at and just hold down the gas pedal to do more damage, and let its passengers cover its flaws.

[testpermanent]

As a fan of old Wolfe and new I must say how mind blowing it is to see how much the channel has changed and improved and yet still kept that irreplaceable world champ difference

[white_tiger]

heartwarming! miraidon started from the bottom with busted stats, a good movepool and a strong ability. so proud of how far they've come!

[PKSparkxxDH]

The powered off Iron Hands and Moth is absolutely terrifying. Kudos to the editor for my nightmare fuel tonight LOL

"Players ridicule this legendary Pokemon, then it won a tournament. INSTANTLY REGRET IT"
-dhar-manitan

[CorruptdKetchup]

It’s like Kyogre’s son, back with the strategy of doing a fuck ton of damage with one type and not having to deal with that types’ resistances because it does 200%+ to most targets

[vlad_s_lavburavzev]

casual player here. I lost track of competitive pokemon years ago so I was wondering why I am watching your videos.
Found out it's because you are really good in talking about things and it's pretty nice to listen to your voice and pace.
So yeah, subscribed and thank's for your hard work!

[tristanwellisch]

Artists: "How many thumbnails do you want for the video?"

Wolfe: "Yes."

Btw, not complaining, I'm just making an observation. I know why they do it I just think it's funny.
