[thechase-ster]

I just wish they would update the TM system. It’s going to be hard to get the new moves when it takes 5+ TMs to get the desired move. 😢

[Moon-nkco]

1 hour of Homeslice Henry Analysis?

Sign me the hell up!

[jaydog-vzvt]

The 50 second timer is by far the biggest change, an amazing one at that

[LucnotLuck]

2:31 missed the opportunity to say “its kind of Gust or… Bust”

[CentrureAstrike]

Ursaring just reminds me of when Gallade got access to Psycho Cut, Swift is comparable to Leaf Blade and both of them have Close Combat, and both are equally squishy mons.

I'm personally excited to give Spiritomb with buffed Sucker Punch a try. It's kinda the yin to shadow sableye's yang, dark fast move opposed to sableye's ghost, ghost charged moves with now the opportunity for the (while much worse charged move lol) rock tomb coverage on Spiritomb as well. Thanks for the deep dive and giving perspective on what's to come!

Built my rank 1 best buddy lickitung 2 weeks ago😢

[davidlee]

I’m so glad to see Greedant fall down the rankings next season! That squirrel caused me so much grief in UL

[lilyeeezyyyy]

51:09 Cetitan being ranked higher than OG Dialga is just pure comedy

[MultiChay]

I really hope Metal Claw gets +2 energy. My shadow Metang is cooking and wants to take on all the Clodsires and Wigglytufs

[williamlaing]

The way henri announces a ranking page the same as an active match is so funny to me. Keep it up

[jermainewill]

Thank god, I'm so tired of facing dual shielding sandsear storm landorus.

[justinfarrington]

gonna grind to build my rank 4 best buddy shiny miltank for ultra!

[barb]

But I don't get why they had Mantine, Dunsparce and Pancham in the first team on day 2 in the World Championship, when Mantine falls from being rank 5 to 212, and those Pokemons were said to be useful for Go Battle League next season 🤔

[danieliusblackius]

Poliwrath down. This is excellent. Just not enough good counters to it with the debuffing Icy Wind and ice dealing super-effective damage to one of its only weaknesses (grass), and scald being pretty neutrally oppressive to its other weaknesses. I found myself having to build teams to specifically counter Poliwrath (at least neutrally if nothing else), which limited the Pokemon I would even bring into battle. Variety is just more fun.

[israelnevarez]

Imagine getting flyers back with a new one turn flying fast move. I want it to happen and be whirlwind.

[ProfOakelyDokly]

It's almost like the old meta had the strong flying types running cover for the strong water types. If you wanted to counter the water types, grass was kind of risky because of the strong fliers so you'd have to use electric types (which aren't that great, and resisted by mudbois). I'm glad this got broken up a bit. But it looks like the new version of fish beats owl beats tree beats fish will involve fighting, fairy and steel/poison. I'm kinda stoked for next season

[rocketimpossible]

My Ultra League Florges runs DVoice and Psychic and she's been my MVP for as long as I've been playing UL.
She beats everything except Skeledirge and Excadrill. The Fairy Wind pacing to DV is outrageous.
EDIT: And every team runs either Tina, Poliwrath, Dragonite, or a random dragon, so she always has play.

[MountnDewgong]

57:54 - there is a bulky fighter that can afford to have slower pacing that absolutely destroys every other meta fighter (especially now that Deoxys Defense and Annihilape are dead)

I think Medi might be back..

[slyfox]

my rank 1 machoke with return will still try
