    Slight clarification: the dragon type isn’t what’s good, it’s that dragon type Pokémon are all really good in terms of stats and coverage moves so the ability to change types either defensively or offensively or both makes them just good Pokémon in general.
  • Hydreigon with levitate and electric teratype has no weaknesses. Truly a dark renaissance

    Holy dragons became the best type because now they are able to play around the fact they are dragon types

    I think the only reason Intimidate is being considered less valuable compared to previous formats is more about the lack of a really good user. We all know that once Incineroar gets put into the game that it'll shoot right back to its usual 90%+ usage rate.
  • Cyclizar has acrobatics. I could picture Sitrus Berry Cyclizar running tFlying, especially for fighting protection.
  • I have no clue about its competitive viability, but STAB Boomburst on Noivern has given me a few chuckles

    Even though Haxorus is kind of just worse Garchomp it is the only dragon (sans kommo-o and koraidon) that learns close combat. 147 is a monster atk stat as well. Of course you can’t cover every niche option in the video and you’re looking for the best in most circumstances, but I’m here to give a voice to the voiceless 😤
  • Great vid ty. I think a large part of why Dragons are back is their base stats total. Dragon is also a pretty reliable neutral damage stab as long as you have solid coverage for fairies (steel) and steels (fire/ground) which all dragons have. With tera, you can make any pokemon with good stats and movepool viable especially those with dual typings. I think Baxcalibur could do really well and maybe other high BST mons like Volcarona.

    I really enjoy the content ray! keep it up, love the battle videos too
  • @SputNStuff
    dragon types be like: "I REJECT MY DRAGON TYPING!" terastalizes
  • Once the update occurs, Huisian Goodra will be conquering your Fairy types with Iron Head as well it's Steel/Dragon typing as well.
  • I'm so happy seeing you get more and more into content creating. You're a legend that made me get really into pokemon VGC :)
  • @JeanMi36
    Damn man, this video is getting some real traction. Really happy for you!

    Dragonite looking at a sylveon: “Call an ambulance!” Tera types into steel “But not for me!”
  • Speaking of Dragon types, I would really want to see a Ancient Paradox Dragapult with its type being either Dragon/Water,Dragon/Fire or Dragon/Poison.

    I like that Terastralization gives Pokemon with bad typings a chance to shine. Really excited to see what people do with this tool.
