I think you underrated fling a bit. Yes, it’s quite niche, but I’d argue that for a lot of strategies, it can facilitate wins like nothing else. It’s great on fast mons if you don’t have fake out, because it allows you to safely break sash with razor fang, and it gets some other general value through being a pretty strong move with something like iron ball

Only issue is, correct me if I'm wrong, using fling in a lot of pokemon games causes you to lose the item after the battle, making it a 1 or 2-time gimmick, since razor fangs/kings rocks arent the easiest to come by (well, ig u can iten hunt hawluchas for the latter, but...)

Worth noting that all the S tier moves are essentially a free turn, or are accomplishing something that takes a turn. The easiest one to explain there is fake out where you remove the opponent's turn while still getting to do damage, leaving you with a net extra turn. All the switching moves accomplish something that takes a whole turn, while still letting you do damage, essentially mimicking the effects of you getting a free turn to attack and then switching out on your normal turn. The last 3 S tier moves accomplish this by letting you setup before the battle, which was mentioned in the video as being similar to using swords dance but without taking a turn to do it.

The issue is most games double battles aren't an issue until late game and even then they are still easy. So it just becomes a move that takes a slot over better single target moves

Confusion against dark types, rock types etc. It's good against the poison types early, but it just maybe confuses and you're better early on with water gun or ember. Even peck is better, since most of the poison types are bug anyways. I see the reason to downgrade it a lot. And if you think about it, confusion only gets value after at least one evolution and at that point you probably have psybeam.

Excellent video. Perfect read of that amazing script. And the video editing showing a relevant move that was outside of the script? This whole team is S tier at production. Love this channel 💜 Gute Walpurgisnacht! 🧙‍♀️

Usually skip ad reads in videos but you delivered that in an incredibly clever way. Rarely see ad reads directly corresponding with videos

that ad read was literally incredible, you are incredible at making content, that was amazing man

Shoutout to the fly at 1:37 during the ad, he used First Impression live on camera.

Hands down the funniest ad read I watched this year. I completely lost it at "dream. Eater way..." 😂

I love that this is an actual structured video and not you just sitting there for hours talking about and putting each move in a slot separately

I couldn’t stop laughing during the ad read, brilliant! That was AMAZING

I'd put thief higher for the fact that of you are looking for specific items that wild Pokémon have (like heart scales to learn moves they'd normally have locked out) that you'd normally have no way to get due to the catching problem, or getting rid of a gym leader's berry to guarantee a kill/have your own for a tougher fight

Confusion I think is underrated. It is the best Psychic attack you have until you get Psybeam a bit later, and 50 is pretty strong at the beginning of the game. Rapid Spin is similarly underrated, in a modern context. Yeah in Gens 2-7 it's merely a competitive tool, but Gen 8 onward +1 Speed while attacking on slower Pokemon like Donphan, Excadrill, Tsareena, and Hitmontop is like at least worth a C-Tier placing.

I had to pause the ad read after "Razor, Wind will feel like Powder Snow on your Electroball" to take a laughing break. I'm afraid to unpause the video, because I might just die laughing.

The elemental hyperbeams for your starters are really good to end a fight with. They hit so hard that most neutral hits just straight up kills. Especially if they are in blaze range
