    I use these videos to get some spicy teams compiled before the next time I visit my brother. He lives 2000 miles away, so I only visit him every once in a while, and surprising him with these matchups is going to absolutely make my day! Keep the wonderful ideas flowing.

    @@MirageUchiha I got Nintendo Online, but my brother dislikes subscription based services, for some odd reasons. We trade Pokémon on Home here and there, since that costs nothing, but I have been thinking of at least getting him a Nintendo subscription card, so we can battle online. However, for now, it's nice to have time to build up some teams, since I will likely be flying over to where he lives, in a couple months.

    I'll always remember the hilarious contrast in Araquanid's Pokedex entries in Sun/Moon. The former claims it straight up drowns smaller Pokemon in its bubble, while the latter offers Araquanid is caring and uses the bubble to protect weaker Pokemon.

    If I remember correctly Ultra sun/Ultra moon was very similar, but instead of just saying it protects pokemon in the bubble it says that it "Puts things it wants to protect in its bubble, araquanids trainer must be careful as it may attempt to scoop them up into its bubble"

    @@kuwandak Water Bubble only boosts water type attacks, nothing else. All water type moves are useless on Pokémon with Water Absorb, Storm Drain, or Water Compaction. And as I said the numbers don’t matter, especially when you’re fight pseudo legendary, mythical, and legendary Pokémon who have way higher base stats. I play ranked matches, Araquanid is one Pokémon I have never seen in there. Ranked Matches are for the best Pokémon and the best players. You’d know this if you had what it takes to be a Pokémon master, but you don’t.

Would you mind to explain to me how was Dracovish banned then? Because water absorb counters it, and yet it is a pretty big menace that even box legendaries struggle to deal with.

    I have an idea that might be a bit of a stretch. But do you think in doubles or against the right attacker, you could use power split to help increase his attack stat. For example, throw out slaking and araquanid, power split slacking to distribute attack, and then araquanid can hit even harder 😊
