Gigantamax Pokemon You *DON'T* Want

Pokemon Sword & Shield have Gigantamax Pokemon, which seem stronger than their Dynamax counterparts. However it turns out, many are actually worse!

I make Pokemon videos, such as Pokemon Sword and Shield content, Top 10 or Top 5 Pokemon videos, Pokemon Talk, Pokemon Meme Review, and lots more! If you're any level of Pokemon fan, subscribe for videos you're sure to love!

Pokemon didn't wanna give wailord a gigantamax because let's be honest if they did
*there would be NO pokemon world to begin with*

[jamhopsey]

Side note: coalossal and charizards gmax moves don’t disappear when the opposing Pokémon faints or switches out. The flames and coals will stay on the field for their duration and will continue to deal 1/8 damage to their next Pokémon

Second side note: sandstorm does 1/16 damage while volcalith does 1/8 damage. Spdef boost from sandstorm kinda just makes that tiny detail matter less tho

7:37 I can't be the only one who thought he said Gmax Cheese Strike

[claytonweyl]

If Team Rocket's Meowth doesn't Gigantamax at some point in the Sword Shield anime, I'll riot.

Gigantimax Squirtle:
Water moves become G-max Floor Dilemma
Everyone including Squitle becomes confused and everyone is guaranteed to hurt themselves in confusion as they wonder What the f**k happened to the floor.

[unseenasymptote]

You underestimate my ability to want things I can’t have

[chrisdecker]

Michael: *Talking about gigantamax Pokemon you don't want*

Me: Michael is growing a beard

[nhacker]

I find that G-Max moves that have a Damage over time effect are helpful for Raid Battles, because you get extra damage while the barrier is up

[lilrockstar]

“Gigantamax hunting is pointless, gigantamax pokémon don’t do any more damage”
Hard to swallow pills: Shiny hunting is just as pointless

[MandJTV]

I have been informed that G-Max Wildfire hurts any non-fire type Pokemon on the opposing side, even once the initial target is switched out. While that is better than I originally thought, I still feel that sunlight is far more beneficial to Charizard. Therefore my opinion that G-Max Charizard is worse is unchanged.

[DarmaniMB]

A classic Snorlax combo was Belly Drum, Rest and a Chesto Berry. Now with Max Replenish you're able to recover your health and wake up in the same turn more than once per battle

[awesomeninja]

I’m not a competitive player,
I’m a simple man,


If the Gigantamax design looks cool, I catch it...

[rebooted_blaze]

It annoys me that Micheal didn’t say “G-max alcremie takes the cake”

[zexionfan]

For Charizard specifically, G-Max IS superior (especially in doubles) because of the extra DoT that lasts for 5 turns. Especially since you're running a sun team overall in many cases of using G-Max 'Zard.

[mavi]

Considering that Hatterene gets Magic Bounce, Misty terrain is useless on her because you would want the status bounced back to your opponent

[FerZamu]

Correction: Terrains now give a 30 percent boost in this gen, it was nerfed from the 50 percent

[immortalkoopah]

Michael: *talks about competetive use of gmax pokemon vs dynamax*
Me: I just collect them cause they're neat

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

I know that I shouldn’t want these Pokémon, but I want still kinda want them

[MayHugger]

Fun Fact: Most Ghost type Pokémon are special attackers, with Max Phantasm lowering the Defense of enemy Pokémon. Most Dark type Pokémon are physical attackers, with Max Darkness lowering the Sp. Defense of enemy Pokémon.
