New series. In this series I go over the history of pokemon including their meta relevance in GBL. In the series I will go over important information like stats, moveset, and typings; what seasons the pokemon were relevant in and why; and how to team build with the pokemon.

Beyond the Hype. I created this series as there is a lot of click bait and false impressions of pokemon and I want to give you a real in depth analysis of whether a pokemon is worth spending dust and candies on.

  1. I don't know if it's a score issue, but I'm in the 2300-2400 range and all my matches are people who count moves perfectly, catch every move, and call out every bait. And on the other side of the spectrum, I lose 5 seconds of every match to the lag despite having a 1gbps network.šŸ’€watching these also made me squirm.

  2. Dan, thank you for shoutcasting my battles. That emp vs ferro matchup I didn’t want to win, I wanted to farm on skelly šŸ˜‚ also, I tanked to 300 elo for gbl day

  3. I came back after a 5 year break from the game but I never pvp'd when pogo came out. As someone who is just starting to try in 2024, your videos have helped me a lot.

  4. That's what it's like at that ELO range. You can be stuck down there despite knowing the mechanics of the game, yet you'll come across so many noobs who make you wonder how they can be level with you

  5. This is totally insane. My opponents at 2000-2150 play better than anyone in this video. My opponents make inspired catches and are clearly counting because they ALWAYS throw one fast move before I can.
    I'm legitimately starting to believe in the algorithm giving us AI opponents. Yesterday I went 5-0 in my first set. In my second set, I went 1-4, but it was like playing a completely different game. They denied me CM after CM like it was automatic. My Mantine on lead ran into 2 Charjabugs, 2 Dedenne, and a Galvantula in a single set. So I switched my team around. Let's try Machamp on lead. Gligar, Mantine, Clefable, Mantine, Gligar. We can't really be expected to believe that shot like that JUST HAPPENS, right?
    I'm pretty sure i'm quitting the game. As soon as I feel like I understand how to play, I go 7-18 again.
    EDIT: And honestly, seeing all these players in this video rated WAY higher than I am playing like absolute garbage makes me angry. Confused and angry.

  6. i honestly havent played GBL for a week or 2 weeks at all because of the lag. I cant count my moves even. i used to play every day and watch every one of your videos still but man its frustrating

  7. I just hit expert in my first season. In my next set after hitting it, my Altaria lead was hard countered four times out of five. It struggles against steel, rock, fairy and ice. I’m happy to hit expert but surely this can’t be explained without an algorithm since two carbink leads in one set is crazy

  8. I enjoy both the scripted and the sidebars because it’s all important and adds to the discuss. There’s always something to talk about for GBL and there’s always controversy so it makes good content to break everything down

  9. 5:50 I've run into a few Poliwraths during catch cup running Dynamic Punch (did some content creator do a video on Poli with Dynamic Punch?) maybe they had that and that's why they threw the icy wind.

  10. Kind of annoyed you’re showcasing a legend player beating on players 600-700 elo below their skill level with a somewhat meta team (2/3 of it being meta with empoleon and dirge). Not only is this annoying in itself, but even more so after you released a vid like a day ago ranting on legend players throwing.

  11. I've lost to someone with s.feraligatr zap canon registeel and s.gligar today I was like dude chilllll

  12. If this "legend" player throws another hydro over drill peck when it doesn't make sense I'm gonna throw my computer

    so anyways they did it again and now im on my phone

  13. I just got to veteran in this cup today using lanturn, gligar and carbink. Only thing I really powered up was carbink. Everything else I had made like 45 days ago

  14. Im sorry, Dan, but if you're going to showcase legend players who like to tank and yet you posted a previous video about tanking complaining about it, it doesn't make sense and isn't genuine from yourself as player of this game.

    Why would you make a video complaining about prior, then showcase a submission from a legend player who loves to boast about tanking down to 300 Elo just to rise back out of it for free dust for his own selfishness to beat on others that are not as good as him? This is like an NBA basketball player dunking on an elementary school basketball team of kids for the hell of it.
