    We desperately need more pseudo Legendary Pokémon that aren’t Dragon type
  • @huntermengel2683
    I think Goodra just needed the water typeing , little extra love and I bet you that would have made a difference . Maybe 10 less base attack for 10 more special to really get crazy but at least have that second typing
  • @vallxtreme
    It's sad to see both Garchomp and Metagross low in this list. But I'm happy that Baxcalibur is that high since it honestly grew on me after a couple months of SV.
  • @ZeroMustang
    Personally, I think Salamence should have been higher ranked, but I'd somewhat agree with the rest
  • @TheKoopa4561
    Baxcalibur grew on me so much. Currently my second favorite Pseudo behind Tyranitar
  • After the Indigo Disk is released would be a great time to update the Top 10 Strongest and Weakest series (post Gen 9)
  • @dannybz7421
    Dragapult is my all time favorite mon. Even as a gen wunner

    Honestly when Legends Arceus came out, I wanted to see a past regional variant of Dragapult that is Dragon/Water Type since the Dreepy Dex entries always mention how when it was alive it chilled in deep ancient seas and even how its old behaviors and habits come back as vestiges. As for the next Pseudo Legendary, I have a few ideas of what I would want and what I could see GameFreak doing. I can see them making a Dragon/Psychic Pseudo because they both used to be the OP types of back in the day so they might pay homage to it since it is the 10th Generation. I could also see them doing something crazy like Dragon/Fairy since it's a typing that feels special in a way like it is chaotic and feels like they shouldn't go together like Fire/Ice and Ghost/Normal. Another thing they might do to sort of troll is give us a Dragon/Normal Pseudo and the reason I can see this is so that they can give an excuse to give them a move of every type, so like a jack of all trades Pseudo Legendary if that makes sense. The last one is what I would want and that would be like a pick your path Pseudo Legendary, to be more specific be able to pick between Fire, Water, and Grass types. So, it would be the same Pokémon, but you just choose to evolve it a certain way to have the type you want. Maybe through the evolution stones, and I don't wanna hear any "bUt ThEn iT wOuLdN't Be A pSeuDO-" like I know, I'm just saying it as an example. In the same idea I could see them making Dragon/Electric using the Thunder Stone, but it could also work as its own separate idea since Electric is a special typing, being that it is the type of Pokémon's mascot and all. Other than that, I guess they could appease fans and give us Bug/Dragon, but I wouldn't want the Pseudo Legendary to have that type personally. And of course, they could throw a curve ball and just not have a Dragon Type Pseudo again, but yea those are my thoughts. Anyone else have ideas they'd like to share; I mostly just mentioned types and not any concepts so perhaps you can give a concept to one of the ideas for the types I gave.

    As someone whose second favorite Pokemon is the walking supercomputer that has psychic powers, it was painful, but not unexpected to see Metagross as low as it was. It was a ridiculously good threat in gen 6/7 ubers when mega, but sadly hasn't been amazing since. Won't stop me from using him as a skill check online when Indigo Disk releases though.
  • @kevinbrisbin7563
    I've been playing since red/blue/yellow and I have always been able to depend on Dragonite. I know there's better options out there but, I'll always pick my mon.
  • @Scorpionspear77
    I went through most of Shield without knowing Dragapult existed, then caught a Drakloak in a raid after the eighth gym. One trip to Serebii later and it was an instant add to my then incomplete team, as I had been unable to decide on a permanent sixth member. I named her Stormfly because I couldn’t think of any undead dragons to name her after instead, and the amount of weight she pulled in the Champion Cup and on was enough to endear me to the line, even if I was dumb enough to ignore Dragon Darts. She even won me my battle with Leon, using Phantom Force to stall out his Charizard’s Gigantamax. I haven’t used Dreepy since because it comes so late in Galar and I just haven’t yet in Paldea, but I absolutely will one of these days.
  • @user-ef8nk2wr7m
    What's a great move set for a timid Tyranitar in generation 3 that appears to have good stats in special defense? and EV spread would really appreciate the help for competitive play .
  • @Yagnori0128
    Sylveon is my favorite mon, so this video made my day😂
  • @AdamDawson3
    Baxcalibur is awesome I used it on my main Scarlet team and its got an awesome design and typing by far the best Pseudo Legendary we have had it years and my favourite of all Pseudo Legendaries
  • @User-xbsux-28227
    I personally think in this 6v6 SV format is like this 1.) Baxcalibur 2.) Dragonite 3.) Dragapult 4.) Kommo-o 5.) Garchomp 6.) Salamence 7.) H - Goodra 8.) Hydreigon 9.) Tyranitar 10.) Metgaross 11.) Goodra

    What’s the windwaker song in the background? Edit: dude you’re awesome for having EVERY song you used in the description, most people don’t do that for just low volume background music! Along with the great, non biased, stat revealing and generation specific information, video, earned a fat subscribe
