@@stonalisa3729I think they were also referring to Rampardos

0:32 actually, that was dragon pulse, even though it looks a lot like flamethrower lol

Oh man, this one's going to be awesome and interesting

Black Kyurem is my absolute favorite pokemon of all time. Thank you for covering him

Honestly I really liked Kyurem-Black in OU. It was flawed enough to be balanced but was still incredibly fun to use

It will again get better in gen9 bcoz loaded dice+icicle spear

Black Kyreum after getting access to the weakest physical stab move in existence: Aight, imma head out of OU.

I’ve been waiting for this one for ages, Kyurem Black is my fave

I was expecting the Kyurem video to include all of the forms, but oh well. It's somewhat bittersweet to see Kyurem Black finally belong in Ubers. On the one hand, it got the TLC needed to actually become an Ubers viable pokemon. On the other hand, it now faced steep competition from better ice types and dragon types once dynamax went bye-bye. Even Zekrom is considered to be somewhat better than it. At least Kyurem Black had its moment in the spotlight for a time.

Why doesn’t it have ice punch? Seriously, look at its arms!

No one knows how long I have been waiting for this video

I LOVE THIS POKEMON THANK YOU KEVIN!!!

But it holds TR43, the TM for overheat!

Sometimes I think game freak sometimes genuinely just forgets to give pokemon certain moves, like in the keldeo movie when kyrem used flamethrower, I bet the animators and gamefreak just thought kyrem learned the move and didn't even think about it not having it. Like physical ice stab in gens 5-7.

im still pissed Aerodactyl never got head smash or brave bird

Can I just say Balck Kyurem’s sprite animation in gen 5 is the sickest thing ever

They did it! They mentioned the TM for overheat!

Wait, is this the only boxart legendary to ever drop to OU in its debut generation? I can't think of any others that did.

Yup, Zygarde dropped to OU too but he isn't a boxart sadly...

I guess Suicune technically counts? Zamazenta was also tested in OU if I remember correctly, but that didn't last.

Zygarde (tho Pokemon Z never exist), back when 100% Zygarde nor Thounsand Arrows didn't exist

Zamacenta-C dropped for a month or so, but luckily it did not last because it was too good at denying frail offense and specially knock off strategies and made semi-stall a bit too good.

Thousand arrows and waves WERE in the game, they were just unobtainable ​@@goGothitaLOL

and now we have Kyurem-Black at home (Baxcalibur), the gen before that we had Giratina-Origin at home (Dragapult) Koraidon is just "cooler Kommo-o"

Hisuian Goodra is Dialga at home

White's ability to ignore Flashfire was understated

Dynamax kyurem black was my favorite era lol. I loved using my boy to cleave teams in half.

Before Gen 8, I found it wild that a legendary Pokemon with a hefty BST of 700 was legalized in OU mainly due to it's lack of physical Ice STAB. Kyurem-B is so thankful to have Dragon Dance and Icicle Spear when Gen 8 arrived to finally fit in with the Ubers along with it's White counterpart.

Aaaaand it sucks there You hate to see it

i hope we can see kyruem white, i wonder how well it did in the competive scene

I really like your work on these videos, however, will there be a time or series that is focused specifically on VGC content?

why is the pokemon competitive metagame an actually effective direct democracy
