Pro Players HATE Facing These Pokemon

Ive just been informed that the yipee little dude is a character associated with the autistic community. Didnt mean to offend anyone, I'm actually autistic as well. I thought it was just the cute yippee guy.

I’m surprised you didn’t mention that both Urshifu forms have the same sprite in team preview

I hate Smeargle competitively because it got Dark Void gutted. Not letting Smeargle use it was enough, there was no reason to also lower its accuracy for Darkrai.

If only Gamefreak thought the same way they did with regidrago as they did with Zamazenta. Regidrago gets to keep its crazy ability and gets buffed with actual coverage, Zamazenta is punished even harder than Zacian for the sins of only one dog.

"there aren't a lot of VGC video essayist out there" I is so right and we need more I want to sit here and hear about VGC for 2 hours

If you think about it, the most hated Pokemon is likely a Pokemon that has yet to exist 🙂

Honourable mention to closed sheet Dondozo with the perfect set and tera type to beat your specific Dondozo counter

The worst part about Unseen Fist in my opinion is the pins it can create alongside Fake Out, which oftentimes are just auto-KO's on anything lacking either Covert Cloak or Ghost-typing.

The thought of Shedinja being in Generation IX would be terrifying since it would be able to make use of Terastallization.

The worst thing about Regieleki is that it invalidates like 90% of Pokemom in the game. Anything relying on its speed stat is as good as useless against it. Anything else trying to control speed is just worse unless its trick room and it can obliderate most pokemon that dont resist electric. Its not even horribly frail so priorty atatcks are only somewhat useful to finish it off

9:07 Wait until this guy sees my -spd nature, 0spd EV Shuckle in trick room with an iron ball

I admit it, Cresselia is slowly rising to be one of the Pokémon I hate having to deal with. She's ridiculously bulky, and can do shit like Ally Switch, Trick Room, and Lunar Blessing that can feel cheap at times.

Poor Zamazenta, it wasn’t even very good in the first place but because it’s counterpart was too strong it got nerfed too. Compare this to Regidrago and Regieleki where only one of them got needed.

Correction about Urshifu in BSS, unseen fist absolutely IS a huge deal. Pokémon like Dondozo and Toxapex commonly run protect (or baneful bunker in Toxapex’s case) to scout intentions of choiced mons. Garganacl also often runs a late game wincon set that utilizes substitute + protect to maximize salt cure chip damage. Protect + leftovers is also usually Dondozo’s sole source of recovery. Urshifu being able to bypass these defensive options that many BSS teams rely on for a shred of stability in regulation D completely throws balance out of the window, Urshifu Rapid Strike in particular is the only Mon that competes with Dragonite for the title of best BSS mon almost solely because of unseen fist.

If shedinja returned in gen 9 it would need to have some sort of extra restrictions on it. Otherwise tera electric + air balloon would only allow it to be KO'd by status and weather.

As a dedicated Armarouge player, I can sense the rage on the other side of the screen. And i like it.😈

Armarouge + Indeedee is the main reason why i run Snarl instead of Eerie Impulse on my Thundurus, kinda underrated move on Thundurus and dropping Special Attack even when taunted or on Gholdengo makes up for the lack of priority.

Gamefreak kinda just forgot the zamazenta existed and it's sad. Zacian gets everything it could ever ask for, and Zama... well...

Regieleki was so broken it made it Regidrago look like a Lesser Pokemon like Druddigon. No wonder why only Eleki got nerfed while Drago is left untouched.

I thought xerneas would have been on this list. Always thought power herb geomancy was hated by majority.
