Sheer Cold is only technically an Ice move, it's typing really means nothing. Also, Freeze Dry is somewhat unique in that it changes the SE range of the type, getting around Ice's weakness to Water. You could say it's a different "type" than normal Ice (a "coverage" move essentially). The only "doubling up" is Blizzard and Ice Beam, which isn't uncommon. You often see Pixelated Hyper Voice and Moonbeam or Surf and Muddy Water on the same moveset.

​@@astridparungao4971 The concept of one trick pony does not even make sense in VGC since a team literally has to work well as a whole to succeed. All the moves being ice type is not one trick, it's just one common trait. Each of the moves has a different function, there just wasn't a reason to add moves of a different type. It's more coincidence than it being a "trick". And this is slightly unrelated but in some games "one trick" is a derogatory term for what is essentially a specialist or an expert, like in a MOBA or a game like Overwatch. It's copium, another bad excuse for losing and not acknowledging your opponent is just better ("they're not better than me, they're just a one trick". "I can play 3 characters at a mediocre level so that makes me better than someone who can play one at a high/decent level".)

I think it's worth noting that Articuno was in fact on the winning team at Space World '97, piloted by Toru Miyazawa. Of course, this was with gen 1 mechanics, ~31% freeze rate ~90% accuracy blizzard, and Articuno was blessed with a 125 special stat at the time (which pulled double duty as both its special attack and special defense).

it bothers me when people say articuno was never good, it was actually top tier in nintendo cup 97, the first ever competitive pokemon format, where it could spam nuclear 120 power, 90% accuracy, 30% freeze chance blizzards off its gigantic base 125 special and not have to be afraid of freezes itself

I mean, Gen 1 was a lawless wasteland that barely held together. Plus, that version of Articuno was still poor, if somewhat stronger in Special, but the insane Blizzard of Gen 1 is doing most of the heavy lifting there. 90% accurate with 30% to freeze, back when freeze was ENTIRELY a death sentence because there was no practical way to thaw? That's not the bird being good, that's the move. Don't confuse/combine the two to mean the same thing. Not to mention that version of Blizzard only exists in JP versions of Gen 1, so the rest of the world never saw that. But yeah, take a single, brief, very specific instance, and you're technically correct that Articuno wasn't ALWAYS terrible. The best kind of correct. You really showed us.

Articuno is also notably quite strong in the earliest competitive Pokemon format ever: Space World Poke Cup (1997). Articuno's Blizzard is the strongest unboosted Special attack in all of Gen I, tied only by Zapdos's Thunder, but unlike Thunder, Blizzard had 90% Accuracy and since it was JP Red/Green, it also had a 30% chance to freeze. Plague Von Karma has an excellent video about it (When Pokemon was a Televised Esport), highly recommend checking it out if you've any interest.

You’re editor is top notch I enjoy learning about Pokémon strats and what better than a funny video to entertain/teach me

Great freaking video Wolfey! I was going off at work while listening to Articuno taking this tournament by storm And that transition at 11:10 was freaking awesome, and that final line of the video is tear worthy... Great time and video for anyone who is an Articuno fan

Ice has always been my favorite type in any of the games, glad to see it being pretty useful and solid in certain situations.

You uploading every saturday is making me so happy. I am so addicted to your channel I have rewatched so many videos these past 3 weeks lmao. Thank you Mr. Wolfey

I'm so happy for Articuno during that tournament, and I'm glad the players brought it and let it shine. It's always been my favorite of the original trio, and it's such a shame it never managed to do anything until now. Good job, ice bird, I hope to see more of you in the future! (Twitter was hilarious that weekend, truly something to see)

It’s always really impressive when a player sneaks a new team comp straight into the meta by winning a tourney out of no where. They really put in the time to understand current used teams and found a way to exploit other team’s weaknesses while covering for their own.

Long time play VGC player and this is some solid content man. It really shows context while being constantly being entertaining. Your stuff has come a long way since your initial foray into being a real youtubist.

I love seeing how METAs in games change like this. The fact that a new kind of team can show up and destroy everyone because of how unexpected it is, and is then countered by using more odd methods. Its fun to see METAs change and adapt, like a group of creatures evolving to survive their conditions.

The thumbnail art is adorable, props to the artist :3

I saw the competition live and I was laughing at the amount of sheer colds being hit. Glad that the team got so much attention.

Was watching the tournament live and was so stoked when Nikhil won. I have a soft spot for articuno so i'd been rooting for him the whole of day two. You were right that he wasn't just lucky with secondary effects and sheer colds, he said himself that he didnt even click sheer cold until his first stream match on day 2, so he went all of day 1 without it.

Team Mystic stays winning.

I’m so happy Wolfe did a video on this. ❤ Articuno has always been my fave legendary bird.

Great video, Wolfey. Nice to see the Articuno resurgence continue with tournament wins in 2023 & 2024. For a legendary that got robbed of its stats by Game Freak after Gen 2’s debut, it’s so refreshing to see it make a comeback in the meta. Ice Types should have never been this frail to begin with. But the Gen 9 buff is a great way to make up for the mistakes by Game Freak after Gen 2 came out.

Man that video was insane, your editing, editing of scenes, flawless work!!

Just wanna say thanks Wolfey I've always been a competitive singles player since 2013 I dabled in doubles alot in gen 7. And usually I find vgc content kinda boring but you make it all so interesting I could listen to you talk and teach for hours something I thought I would never be into could be fixed with just the right charismatic person one day I hope I can meet you! Wish you the best in your upcoming journey as Champion and on KZread

Sheer Cold, Ice Beam, Freeze Dry, Blizzard and Specs is such a bawler set

Given the amount of players at this tournament and chien pao being the only ice type people prepared about, it's statistically very very like that in the days before the competition, someone, somewhere, actually had the following discussion "-Damn your team has so many ice weaknesses -I know but, I don't really care. I have my Pao check so what is any gonna do with my ice weakness? Pull out articuno and blizzard me to death? /s -Hahaha yeah right"

I love watching all of Wolfes vids! They are so inspirational and also educational! Seeing something that is not normally used is amazing to see and hope other mons become usable as well! 😄

Id argue that Articuno was great in 1997 with Red and Green Nintendo Cup. Maybe 2nd to Jynx due to freeze being a 30% chance instead of 10%.

I don’t get this take. Reg F has an insane amount of diversity, with well over 70 or even more Pokémon reaching top cut of regionals since the beginning of the Regulation. Even to the point where players in Beastcoast or other creators like Moxie is saying this format is too decentralized. This tournament is a great showcase of this. In the top 8, we had 22 different Pokémon, and just outside the top 8, we had Pokémon like Roaring Moon, Okidogi, Iron Boulder, Annahliape, Whimsicott, Goodra, and Volcarona in the top 16 alone. Even teams with 3 or so similar Pokémon often played very different archetypes.

Have you been living under a rock

My favorite Pokémon since it’s debut in the 90s , loved this majestic pigeon so much I would draw it while in class. Finally getting its spotlight

The whole video could've been the clip at 14 minutes and I'd have believed it. Good god that defense.

Love the vid (I love the blue boosting bird)

I need to stop being chronically online 💀

What makes me really happy when watching VCG unfold every season, is seeing unique and new teams and strategies used. But, I am particularly happy that Articuno is finally getting some footing in competitive.

I never thought I'd see Ragnarok Online emotes used in this video. That brought back so many memories.

When there's a title like this, it's always wolfe

This shows how deep Pokemon can be. With more than 1025 playable characters, 1083 if you count regional variants as separate Pokemon. 1 small change to the game can change everything

Off all the things that could be in a Wolfey video, I would have never guessed Potemkin would show up.

These are the only changes to the meta I care about in vcg thanks for the video!
