TERAPAGOS is FINALLY LEGAL... and it's a BEAST • Pokemon Scarlet/Violet VGC Battles
Ойындар
The VGC Regulation G ruleset is finally here and to kick things off, I wanted to try out one of the brand new restricted Pokemon, Terapagos! Terapagos is a really unique Pokemon that can deal massive amounts of damage with its signature attack, Tera Starstorm. When paired with a Choice Specs, this Pokemon can quickly sweep through teams and clean up games!

QOTD: I have no idea what’s going on. It feels like aside from Calyrex being broken, absolutely nothing predicted was correct. Why is Zamazenta cracked? Why are Miraidon and Groudon so bad? Why is Pelliper so good? I genuinely can’t predict who is gonna do well and not. The last single restricted meta completely sucked, but this one actually feels incredibly unique and diverse in comparison, and I have no idea where it will progress. Of course, it’s still centralizing, as every single restricted meta tends to be, but being very matchup based means some tech choices are so much more powerful than expected, so overall, pretty good, for now at least.

QOTD - Playing with absurdly busted restricteds for fun has been great but I find myself being really frustrated with how single restricted plays in a competitive setting. The restricteds are so powerful that it forces a lot of lines of play fully out of consideration and so far it’s made a lot of the games I’ve played feel very same-y. I expect the double restricted format to fix that issue whenever it comes along, and there’s definitely still a possibility I come to enjoy the format more, but I can’t help wishing reg F stayed around a little longer

I've heard from Moxie Boosted that apparently double restricted are even more restricted than single restricted. Some support legendaries do get better (such as Lunala), however the vast majority of teams end up being "pick the two restricted that go best together". At least in a single restricted format, there's more of a rock/paper/scissors of certain restricted beating out others and pushing a niche because of that (such as Kyurem-White and Reshiram possibly having a niche if Zacian gets popular). With Miraidon and Calyrex Shadow being as strong as they are, I personally expect a lot more Ground, Fairy and Dark types to rise up in usage

@@oireal7261 I think history shows this isn’t really true. In SwSh, Wolfey had difficulty building teams because every tournament went to, he rarely ran into the same combination or restricted more than once, while the single restricted that happened later was all Calyrex and Zacian. Moxie also seems pretty flipped on this opinion, as he sometimes says that double restricted is better (plus Miraidon is not good right now)

@@oireal7261 I don't really see how that's different than a single restricted format, people will still either play the best or attempt to counter the best. The meta often solidifies into a few strong teams, things like urshifu balance, and then other fringe teams are made that attempt to counter the most popular teams, like the Kommo-o iron defense teams. The addition of a second restricted on every team may push a few mons out of the metagame but I don't think that's that different than what happened when paradox mons were released in reg B. I do think dual restricted will fix my problems regardless, as my frustrations don't come from restrictions during teambuilding, but more from the linearity of many of the single restricted strategies. In past formats, I could have an urshifu and a flutter mane on my team and either would be viable candidates to sweep given correct setup, meaning I could construct equally viable gameplans around either mon and execute them despite them being on the same team. Restricteds are so monstrously powerful that they nearly necessitate being brought, limiting the pool of viable brings from my 6 available mons and oftentimes forcing similar lines of play in every match. Having a second threat of that caliber helps spread the power out across your team, making it far less punishing to leave behind a restricted in a bad matchup, and allowing for more variations on your gameplan when dealing with opposing threats.
The full base power comparison of Tera Starstorm before and after tera is as follows: Before it is a single target normal move with 120 bp (so 180 after STAB) After tera it's 120 x 1.2 from Stellar bonus x 0.75 for spread (if spread) for a total 108 bp (40% weaker), however this is offset some by the additional 25 base spattk gained when tera which roughly is 16.27% more overall spattk (if +spattk nature and full invest). So final dmg loss is ~30% (27% if no ev invest so always around that range) or ~4% loss if single target

i know this is correct, but in my mind it doesn't make sense why it doesn't get the double stab with tera, like it should work like Kyogre water tera water spout but it doesn't for no reason. Stellar Type looking dumber by the second to me. Pokemon saved by Teraform Zero tho, that ability is really really good.

@@luigimanzelli3786 It's made up for by the fact that nothing can resist it (basically has a built in Tinted Lens, but better). Makes it the ultimate spammable spread move just that you need some power boost like specs or a calm mind to really make that base 130 spattk break stuff

So glad youre back! I think what makes your ladder vids stand out is how skilled and detailed you are at explaining interactions, why they happened, and different choices that would affect the outcome one way or the other. I cant wait to see more of reg G!
We missed you Aaron! Finally back!
So happy you're back, Aaron! Been going through your 2016 Playlist recently to get my fix lol!
So happy you’re back!!! Cannot wait for more Reg G vids!
QOTD - I'm pessimistic about Reg G, I think it's gonna be centered around Calyrex and speed-ties between 252+ speed Tornadus
I am loving your energy this year! And far out the new look is excellent
Never been more excited for a KZread video! So glad to have our KING BACK.
Yes! Let's goooooo! Welcome back Aaron, so excited to have you back in my feed
Seeing only one Calyrex-Shadow team was really nice. I was so worried it'd dominate videos from how stupidly broken it is, so seeing far more Terapagos teams was a really pleasant surprise.

I just assumed tera Terapagos would act like cloud nine so good to know Torn can set rain up while it’s on the field.
This format baffles me. Looking forward to you shedding some light on it.
Beginning of a new format is always super fun imo! Although the amount of times i have found myself stuck in trick room... not as fun lol
This team is so good! Im using it right now and im winning majority of my games. Thanks for making this bro! Might have to do a little team building inspired by this team.
LET'S GO! Reg G about to be insane. Built myself a Calyrex-Ice team (first ever team I've created myself), excited to see how far we can go
So glad you’re back! Missed your videos
I'm glad you're back! Missed the videos! You're looking hella healthy from the break though, got that glow!

Mr. Cybertron, I’d love to have videos where you talk about the new regulations and how you think they’ll impact the meta. I really think that’d be a cherry on top with your content since those patches don’t happen often. Cheers!!
Thanks 🎉
I’ve been gone from vgc for so long, Aaron is now entering his pretty boi Asian stage lol looking good bro!
You should try specs terapagos, it’s really funny when they try to taunt you and just get- wait, nvm lol
I had a Lunala use Hypnosis on my Terapagos, but this video influenced me to carry Sleep Talk on them. They'd been Wide Guard'ing me, but literally dropped their guard once my turtle was snoozin'. Wish I could have seen their face when Tera Starstorm rinsed them in spite of sleep status. Thanks for exposing me to the tech, Cybertron.
Hey Aaron, you look really tanned! Glad to have you back

YOOOO SHINY TURTLE 🌈 🐢 🤯❗

I’m excited for Reg G videos
A fine addition to the turtle pokemon collection
QOTD: I recently discovered Pokémon Rogue. It’s a browser rogue like Pokémon game. Where are you get to decide your starting team from all the starter Pokémon and you’re trying to get up to battle 200 the battles get really intense. Pokémon have a level cap of 200 and the game has special items to make it easier to get there once you’re out later in the run so you’re getting more XP per battle and it has access to all the bow gimmicks, except for Z move the think. The question is have you played any of the aftermarket Pokémon games? I played a few roms, but nothing crazy
If there's one thing I have to say about Terapagos, is that I like how it's designed, meaning it's not an auto-win button like Calyrex, but a tool that has to be positioned correctly in order to even work in the first place. I'm honestly surprised it works with a Specs set, since it's very vulnerable to Snarl spam (especially on a team that doesn't even run Defiant/Wide Guard to discourage it) and offensive threats like Koraidon, and before Reg G was launched I kept seeing it all the time as a setup sweeper with either Leftovers or Amulet/Cloak. Still, apparently I was wrong and it's more versatile than it looks like!
QOTD: Reg G feels like it’ll be fun as far as perfecting one team as opposed to trying a bunch of different teams. I’m looking forward to focusing one 1 team this format. Maybe 2
Important question, does Weezing‘s Neutralizing Gas negate the Tarapagos Ability to Evolve into big forme ?

Ayo Aaron Using Terapagos? Welcome to the Turtle/Turters Fan Club 🎉🎉
Just so you know, Origin Dialga has to hold the Adamant (something I dont its the Orb). So it couldnt be safety goggles
Can you explain why Terapagos is 244 speed and not 252? Doesnt 244, which puts you at 111, make you speed tie with timid 252 Speed Caly-S under tailwind? What's the reasoning behind not wanting to outspeed? Edit: Im stupid, forgot the form change stats arent in effect on the showdown display despite showing the tera form
Handsome man is back :)
Terapagos is gonna carry this format on its back (literally) 🐢🌎
So i’m new to VGC and trying to get all the legendaries with the proper IVs… ones i’m stumped on is the genie trio.. any tips on where is the best place to farm them?
HE’S BACK!!!!!
Aaron with the piercings and haircut means he means business and we have a world champion

Hello! I'm new to vgc and wanna learn how to make a proper team are there any tips you can give me especially if I already have a certain pokemon to play around with? :D
Why cybewtron man getting finer by the day
Is there any consideration to having less than 4 moves with Terapagos to maximize the Sleep Talk chance of hitting Tera Starstorm? I believe you had a video of a Specs Sylveon a few regulations ago that did that.
Yessss!
Terapagos in both forms is hella cute
Cybertron with the drip? Damn
QOTD I’m a fan of reg G so far I like testing and playing around with the new tools but as someone who only got into vgc in SV some of the new mons are so scary and hard to learn to deal with
Is Ting-Lu going to be the answer for Calyrex Shadow Rider? Resists ghost type, is immune to psychic and lowers calyrex's sp.atk by 25%, can run throat chop for dark stab and heavy slam for steel coverage in case of tera fairy. Guaranteed OHKO with only 52 attack EV's if they're not tera'd, 2HKOs with heavy slam if they do tera, and tanks astral barrage with ease (5HKO with no EV's and max sp.atk on calyrex-s). Even without trick room Calyrex-s is gonna have a hard time removing him, in TR I don't see how calyrex has any chance. Everyone is hyping up Calyrex Shadow Rider (for good reason) but I think we just didn't have the tools for it in Sw/Sh.
Don’t forget electric terrain allows your pokémon not to fall asleep! Interesting play by your opponent on the first game 🤔
I cant believe Regulation Calyrex Shadow is already out
Stellar Tera Teraform Terrapagos. I wonder what the gimmick is this generation.
that first battle was so weird lol
If you had failed to prevent their tailwind and torn gets knocked out do you just definitely lose game 2? I feel like terapagos goes down to kyogre and torn under tailwind spread damage and they just run over you
LET HIM COOK !!!
