RBY Golem and Victreebel both come to mind for part 2
Lots of talk about nerfs and powercreep on a video that deliberately has nothing to do with such concepts.
Arlo list to my infernape to time weak my real team
In a certain light you could have called Talonflame, Mega Kangaskhan, and Aegislash the faces of gen 6 since it seemed like every team you faced had one or more of them on it. Then Talonflame and Mega Kangaskhan got nerfed into oblivion the following gen and Aegislash was nerfed extra hard in Gen 8. However, it would seem that old Talonflame still managed to fail to cut it forever in gen 6 regardless.
SS dlc be like 😥😳
How good was rotom actually!!
This is something I love about Pokémon, when something is so used and defining but not broken, people start to brainstorm ways of dealing with it, to the point it becomes unused because everyone expects it and has a way to deal with it.
Suicune in gsc has been having a bad time as well actually,the legendary beasts are suffering.(seriously tho it's now lower than a couple uubl mons and could drop behind alakazam and slum it out with blissey as ou's "worst".)
I kept playing rby ou. And gosh darn it golem and Lapras fell off the cliff. Victreebel got in… then back out lolz
We gonna talk about talon flames nerf

Raikou got Scald in Gen 8
Can I get a Rip in the chat for gen 1 golem
LMAOOO! Fire Monkey fell haha
Sellout. How much did your self respect cost anyway?
Before starting the vid: I'd be shocked if gen 1 Golem isn't in this
Edit: huh.
mm yes I love the Pokemon Snap gameplay
When I saw this video I thought it'd be for Pokemon that were once top OU stars in past gens but now consistently reside in lower tiers. (Jellicent, Exeggutor, Tauros etc.) That being said such a video would be nice.
Golem in Gen 1 fell two tiers because people made the online simulators wrong
DE-NERF GALE WINGS 2022
So many people cover vgc happy u often focus on singles!
Man, this vid makes me miss talonflame and infernape. Hopefully they’re brought into Scarlett and violet and hopefully get some kind of rework to make them good. Those were always just cool Pokémon.
This video is making a moot point at best. All of these Pokemon are amazing, and are just as successful as they always have been. The difference maker? Some folks found out that the "Solid" Competitive ideals, based around a fluid RNG non-competitive oriented single player children focused RPG, just may not be as solid as originally assumed.
It's the same problem with "Power Creep." This game is not balanced around competitive. There are purpose-made good and bad mons. Movesets, typings and abilities dictate more than just about anything concerning the viability of mons. This is no truer than when you look into which generation has the highest average base stat total, which is a close race between Gen Three and Six.
Crazy how this channel is changing.
L + ratio + fell off
videos about old formats still being explored are easely my favorites
Chandelure fell off hard in gen 5, but it was more of an immediate drop. Probably due to new toy syndrome, it was used and feared in ou but after it wore off chandelure actually dropped to uu. (In which it is now banned but it shows how bad it was)
Definitely expected RBY Golem to show up here
I was wondering if they'll ever do a video about pokemon that were really good in OU but fell off hard below it due to meta changes, something like Golem's drop in RBY OU, although I don't know if there are other examples like Golem to list it.
BRO DO THE GEN TO GEN one because you always Say it that what is about
How GREAT was Heatran ACTUALLY?
Poor Talonflame, nerfed to the ground after it's debut gen and no longer the OU juggernaut it once was in gen 6
In the x/y format Rypherior with rock helmet was my Talonflame counter.
I though metagross is gonna be here for some reason. But i guess thats more of a case when gens went on
I still feel bad for these mons. I loved using Infernape and Talonflame in my in-game teams, and they’re both great. I just wish I could see much better games from them.(New note: I actually love using Infernape in Pokemon Showdown these days, and it can be quite fun to use)
Infernape is in my top 3 favorites, so it's sad to see him fall off. Had your time in the spotlight, king 😔
