As he should, Oshawott is terrible. And you can call this bait if you want, I suffered through my brother's Black 2 game (having never played Black/White) just so we could get Move Tutors availability in X/Y... and he chose that wretched otter. I genuinely had to box that thing for a better water type because it couldn't perform a single good move. Thing was awful. I probably would have taken EITHER of the other two over it. And karma bit me in the ass and announced ORAS like.... a week or two after I finally completed the game - whining about how I wasn't having fun the whole time. (I've never cared for pokemon plots, and I didn't know what was going on, compounded on Black 2 being a genuine sequel, so people talked about things with a familiarity that I didn't have.) My tone might change now about the games (having seen RT's playthroughs) and being older than I was then, but I don't think I will about the Oshawott line.

Skeledirge carries. You can easily get a win on your first run with Skeledirge+Meowscarada+any good water (I usually use Mudkip for coverage and mega potential). Then, pray for a map and then route to anywhere Nacli is before 145, because Garganacl is broken. If you want to make the final boss a joke, find something that can learn Soak, bring it in on the recharge turn to make the final boss Water, and Salt Cure will kill him in 5 turns

I have basically no knowledge of Pokémon, but there’s something very satisfying about watching RT flex his Pokémon skills

Please finish the run Dan this video was such a fun watch
