The world finals of the VGC 2014 Masters Rank.
Watch Jeudy Azzarelli battle Se Jun Park and his famous Pachirisu in the Finals of the 2014 Pokémon World Championships.
I still think Ice Punching that Chomp in game 2 was the safer play..

"Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled Trainers should try to win with the Pokémon they love best." -Karen from the Johto Elite Four
Love that quote I take that quote with me every time I start a new adventure
I clap my titties amen.
Quo Vadis Because that is the will of the people
Then along comes a guy at the Battle Resort in ORAS... "It's one thing to enjoy leisurely battles, but real battles can be a severe trial. Truly strong trainers sometimes must be prepared to choose Pokémon that can win rather than their favourite Pokémon." Ugh.
Misa Amane Why? He speaks the truth.
Not only did he use pachirisu, but it was also one of the main reasons he won. That's amazing
*HOW DID NO ONE FIND YOU YET?!* Edit: *Okay but in all seriousness it's 1:40 AM where I am and I am already going on 1 night with 0 sleep so I might be tripping.*
Katzun, nice seeing you here! :D And yea, it broke the norm amazingly!
Aye
Aaayyy Katz!
omg hi
7 years later, Pokemon Legends Arceus made a reference to this legend by giving you a quest where you have to beat an Ursaring with ONLY a Pachirisu in your team, and the rewards include sitrus berries
Oh shit, for real?
I always name my Pachirisu 'Jun' in homage to Su Jun!
@@JustAGirlOnline He's called Sejun
@@MashuSlyferiux Mistyped!
Apparently it doesn't have to be 'a' Pachirisu, the man himself was doing a mono-Pachi run of PLA and they let him through with 6 of those critters by his side.
A fight between Godzilla and a shark dragon while some squirrel is being chased by a lawnmower
That's competitive pokemon in a nutshell
Look Pokemon Showdown... is much bizarre XD
Garchomp is a Bioraptor reference.
Nice pfp :^)
Sounds like the funniest of artworks! 😊😊
This may be the only time we get to see a squirrel beat the crap out of a possessed lawn mower
why the fuck is this so funny

I beat a god with thorns.
I think the most remarkable thing here isn't really just Pachirisu alone, but the fact that his team is actually a TEAM and every member was crucial to his strategy.
Yeah and so is his opponent's team. They don't just pick team on random you know of course they're going to strategize first
Yeah that’s pretty self explanatory. He wouldn’t just use Pachirisu for the lulz. U dumb?
Kudos to Gardevoir being a secret MVP. It took that Bullet Punch like a champ which let the team get the first turn KO on a MEGA. Really impressive game even after all these years.
Yeah, this is the idea! Strategy!!! :)
@mas-issneun ttongsul What? He is cheating?
I've never watched competitve pokemon, yet 5 years later I watch a random video and am rooting for a Korean stranger because he was using a pachurisu. This is pokemon right here, absolute perfection.
My therapist is useless same shit my dude
Same
I had no idea what was going on. I just wanted to watch what was in my recommend. Now I’m in love with this stuff
Same
I'm the same, I don't know anything about the pokemon meta, in fact I think university is easier than studying the pokemon meta and I'm 15 years old
Battle actually only starts at 10:19. You're welcome.
Thanks bro
Thx a lot
almost 9 months, still helping people.
Lol no, starts at 13:45
ty.
Holy shit, actual team variety.
VGC '14 actually had a bit of variety, especially when you compare its top 8 teams to '15's. This year is probably going to be worse, though. I barely have any creative freedom due to the primals' dominance.
The rest of his team is the same op shit, competitive pokemon it just a luck contest.
@@Fauxmale I hate vgc 2019 now, There was a reason those pokemon were banned. now you can use some. what a fucking shitty decision.
Krulla Chief watch your language
Thomas The Bob greninja is mostly singles tho
Jeul before match, taking notes. See Jun before match, trying to balance a pachirisu plush toy...
He knew that pachirisu was gonna win so it was important to have him balanced
Pachirisu wasn't balanced, that thing was tanky as hell XD
Tank Pachirisu with all of it's other stats...broken!
Ikr lol 7:20 😂❤️
One word. Magicarp.
If anyone makes it to the finals with a Pokemon you've never seen competitively, you should be scared
Damn straight
That means the meta is way too entrenched in itself that nobody is prepared for the unexpected. Not to mention there's likely a bunch of people not knowing how to deal with the strat itself. Good players can get wins they otherwise shouldn't this way.
13:46 18:30 24:29 25:16 The Pachirisu hype moments.
Thanks man
“Looks like it’s gonna be Pachirisu.”
I love how two of the most hype moments in the entire match are both just Pachirisu coming out of its Poke Ball
15:20
Timestamps? You truly ARE a bro!
what the fuck am I doing, I should be studying. I don't even play pokemon... But nice match tho
I know the pain, brother ;_;
Same, study documents still open.
feel ya
Lmao.. Your comment is me exactly. I haven't played since Red and Blue.. And now PoGo has made me a PokeHead again.
Yeah I'm with ya . great game though haha
I love how everyone loses their shit when Talonflame got frozen
And when Talonflame breaks that with its overheat😂😂😂😂😂
freeze can cost you the battle. I had a 7- win streak that got ended when my mega was frozen by tri attack
@@jylleperez509 That's the reason you need overheat in this Championships
@@eh9296 any fire move that has a chance to burn thaws freeze
why did he even use talonflame charizard got better stats?
Seeing that pachirisu surviving a Draco meteor from Salamence is so satisfying
Not just a Draco meteor, but also a Rock slide. Truly incredible
I don’t know how I ended up here...but DAMN that was intense to watch!
Hi
@@entitykai Hi
A true Pokemon Master.
Let's hope Pachirisu returns someday
From Sinnoh with love
why? He did not use pachirisu because its use was rare, it because it was precisely what he needed, surely it is not his favorite Pokémon
@@yiming1825 Just to point out here, Sejun has actually said that following this battle Pachirisu became his favorite pokemon. He literally did a whole playthrough of BDSP and PLA with a team of pachirisu.
@@ajaypersaud2040 yes,if a Pokemon with a strange strategy made me win a world Championship,that pokemon probably would become my favorite one,but pachirisu didnt enter in his team because It was his favorite,now its his favorite Pokémon,but then wasnt it
pachirisu > arceus
***** No. Smeargle all the way :3 Do you know just how HILARIOUS it is to watch one use Dragon Ascent? Ironically, I used one who knew it for contests....
Pokemaster10000 Have you neverseen that video of a level 1 Smeargle defeating a level *100 Arceus*?
Phoenix Wright Just focus sash, endevor, extreme speed. Insta-kill anything
TeamPokepals76 I got my friend once by me first-ing a dragon ascent with my mew you should have seen it he was like "nooooooooo" and then you saw the tiny little mew flying across the screen at full speed into his mega rayquaza and insta-killing it XD
Pokemaster10000 Me First isn't the same thing. My Smeargle literally knows Dragon Ascent.
It's important to consider why this strategy worked, cause a lot of people take this as a "you can win with any pokemon you want if you are good enough" lesson when it's not really that simple. He didn't win because pachirisu is secretly good, neither he chose it cause it was one of his favorites. it worked because it was unexpected at first he wanted to use an amoonguss for his team, since it offered the support it needed for the playstyle of this team. problem is, everyone was used to ammoonguss. Safty googles were extremely common and people ran lots of counters against the mushroom. So instead of having to deal with that, Se Jun decided to look for a pokemon that could do what amoonguss does without having to depend on powder moves... and the only pokemon that really fits that role was pachirisu (while togekiss gets thunderwave, nuzzle has the advantage of 100% acuracy, and pachirisu is inmune to electrict type attacks thanks to volt absorb, wich was important for him to redirect electric types meant for his gyarados, while togekiss would be weak to them too). He really didn't choose it for some short of preference torwards the pokemon, it trully was the pokemon that fitted his team the best. of course, pachirisu is a completly inferior version to amoonguss in almost everyway, but the fact that nobody expected it meant that nobody planned on how to deal with it. this is why despite a bunch of people trying to replicate the strategy, it never really worked. the moment it stoped being unexpected it lost the one thing it had going for it. Not to take credit away from Se Jun, only an amazing player could have made this work, but my point is that this isn't really a case of "you can win with any pokemon you want", him choosing pachirisu was a very thought out process that was done in order to get the best possible chance of winning.
Unpredictability is a strong weapon. It’s amazing.
Ah, a man of culture
THANK YOU. So many arguments on showdown and discord because of this stupid squirrel.
Rather, it was a case of being clever. You must know what the meta is like, and play around with it. If something on your team is so common that it's being countered, look for something else that can fill the same space. Study the meta, see what is popular and what is being countered and how. Then, use that knowledge to build your team. And do not let anyone learn of your plans. If they know you're team long before the tournament, you will lose the edge of surprise. This is a strategy game.
Also the reason nuzzle is better is it technically does damage so it can’t be blocked by taunt, something I’m pretty sure rage powder can be countered by
Just a reminder for people finding this match: Sejun didn't have Pachirisu in his team because it was his favorite (though it is now). He went for what was best for his team at the time. In the post-game interview, he said he chose Pachirisu because it was the best user of Follow Me at the time for move redirection. He chose it over the more popular Amoonguss with Rage Powder, which can be ignored by Grass-types and the Safety Goggles item, which people had been running just to counter it.
He probably could’ve run eviolite togetic with follow me, protect, thunder wave and any other move. (Maybe healing move). Would’ve been way more bulky and would’ve had insane type advantage with only rock slide being effective against it.
@@canadianmedic4341Keep in mind Sejun also ran Gyarados. Having a volt absorb redirector put immense pressure on the opponent because it forced them to deal with Pachirisu when they wanted to take out the more fearsome fish.
@canadianmedic4341 keep in mind another reason he ran Patchuisu is because of moves like super fang and nuzzle, since Amoomgus is a popular pokemon, people use taunt which would prevent all those status moves you mentioned, but doesn't prevent nuzzle or super fang
Even now, two years later, this is by far my favorite VGC just because of how innovative it's champion was. These days you just see the same damn Pokemon again and again...
Now you rarely see the background because of all that tapus 😂

@@kiwa8830 what's wrong with wanting to see something innovative? smrmaaktlqckdsus
I think it's so endearing how Se Jun Park spent about 2 minutes trying to get his Pachirisu plushie stand correctly and not fall. Big hero!
Pachirisu has low total stats. But it has a great supporting move pool and combines decent speed with decent defenses and only 1 weakness. Great find by Sejun to get that to work!
I don't do competitive play but it seems like it's easier to do strategy plays in double battles bc there are two members on the field vs single battles where you can't directly support other team members
@@Sheenifier imo singles are simpler for the fact that you're taking into account a 1v1 situation while in 2v2 you need to think of every combination for your team and if it synergizes well
Pachirisu is my childhood Pokémon, I adore using it in my Diamond game and watching it in the anime. and to see it being used... in a MASTERS DIVISION competition and winning???!! That is just. AMAZING.
I always wanted it to have an evolution.
Samee I fell in love w it cause it was so cool and cute in the anime! I used it in my Diamond playthrough I love it
M. Nourishad I feel so bad that you don’t get to use one in galar hopefully they make it so you can transfer it
I remember having an insanely high leveled pachirisu, don’t remember what level but I kept it because I wanted to evolve it, although It doesn’t have an evolution it means a lot to me.
Three years later... did you ever use it in the Sinnoh reboot? How did you feel, if so?
Because of this... Pachirisu no doubt will get a mega evolution.
And yet im still waiting for one...
+Leniexy heck, it could get an evolution or a mega evolution
I dont want a normal evolution... I WANT MEGA GAMEFREAKKK!!!
+Leniexy Why? If it got a normal evo, Pachi would get Eviolite bonuses, and the evo could get a Mega.
Brendan Hurley Because of i like the way pachirisu is designed~
A CRITICAL HIT ON THE VERGE OF WINNING SO INTENSE
Your profile pick suits the comment
if it wasn't for that crit, the rotom would have survived at about 30 ps. His next move was probably sharp leaves, which targets both pokemons, getting a double K.o since it woulda crit due to the item rotom holds. Then it would be a one on one rotom vs slowpoke, and the speed of rotom would allow it to win.
+Twitch Highlights Daily Compilation not slowpoke, talon flame.
1000 subscribers No video challenge Should’ve left it at slowpoke. Now I think you’re serious.
I like how while Jeudy is so tense, Se Jun is just adjusting his Pachirisu stuffed toy
imagine losing your game cart on the flight to worlds
i would rather not
I would _cry_ and go home or be one sad salty spectator.
just in case, they probably store the save data on an sd card so that they could just buy a new cart if needed and keep the same data
that happened to someone in 2018 he just made a whole new team LOL
no such thing as weak pokemon, only weak trainers.
you couldn't be more wrong
+classyrainbowhead yeah their is alot of pokemon with weak stat and moveset
Welllllllllllllll
+Đạt Lý even then, baton pass ftw
+classyrainbowhead a lot of people argue this statement is wrong, which yes there is lots of weak pokemon. But a weak strategy and skill would do more harm to you losing, then your pokemon.
I guess it really does show: It's not the pokemon, it's the trainer.
Spenigat Mancer Let me rephrase this into a term I use for fighters: It's the not the Character, it's the Player.
Spenigat Mancer Pokemon is an RPG. Though, it doesn't matter what the genre is, it's all about "How can I take this character, and make him/her work." I'm not a competitive pokemon player, (even though I want to get into it), but I can see Pachirisu isn't a very popular competitive Pokemon. However, I think this video shows that you can make any Pokemon viable. It just takes a good trainer.
Stephon Zeno It's actually the RNG.
Yagi Not really, when a set up gyarados is what your team is built around, it makes sense to have a pokemon that either resists electric type moves, or actively benefits from it. Out of all the volt absorb pokes there were in the XY metagame Pachirisu easily had was the best poke for his team as it had the most utility. It's not like he used a shit pokemon and made it work, as someone already said, there was a role to be filled, and it just turned out that the bulky squirrel from hell fit it well :)
Stephon Zeno The struggle in describing what you are saying. If I'm correct, why you are saying is like when you have an a crap pilot in an airplane; even if it is the best airplane in the world, any plane can become a threat with a good pilot behind the wheel.

I like how Pachirisu tanking the Draco Meteor was foreshadowed by it tanking a Leaf Storm in the first match and the commentator mentioning that Leaf Storm has the same power as Draco Meteor.
I saw Se Jun has hatched 1939 eggs, whoa that's some crazy level of patience and hard work. That's a hardcore dedication to get the perfectly balanced pokemon.
Meanwhile, "competetive" players today have less than 100 eggs full shinys and IVs (im not saying they cheated but they did) , and very basic copy paste teams
I shiny hunted in gen 6 and 7 and I believe I have more eggs hatched than that lol. You can hatch 20 pokemon in like 10 minutes in gen 7. Idk in gen 8 I didn't play competitive because most of my favorite pokemon aren't in swsh.
@@zahhak5571 you know you can improve IVs, change natures, and change abilities in SWSH, right? If I find a shiny I can bottle cap its IVs, capsule its ability, and use a mint for the nature
@@clashplaya8638 I did not knew it, but then more the reason not to cheat and mosts players still do it anyway because "they don't have time to do it legit"

Guillermo Nigote depends on how you use em
I wish VGC could do a championship where you can’t use legendary and mythical Pokémon. Maybe that is why I liked watching this so much.
BETTAKING unless they’ve changed it I believe mythicals are banned but a maximum of 2 restricted legendaries are allowed. I get people don’t like seeing primals and box legendaries all the time but it’s also nice to see what they’re capable of in a competitive environment since they’re banned from the post game battle tower modes.
@@TSfish94 no, mythicals are completly banned
Mythicals are always banned in vgc
This is a VGC championship.
Just play pokemon showdown lol
Must've felt bad losing to a Pachirisu
Nope, every pokemon can be used competitively.
Prof. Garchomp You don't know much about competitive pokemon if you think that.
i mean you cant bring a magikarp to a battle but you can even use pineco to setup and then whirlwind the heck out of the team with another pokemon like sigilyph
In VGC every Pokemon can be used well, it's just some are used better than others, it is also usually because they are unpopular Pokemon that they get hyped up for the Pachirisu for example, not because it is bad.
I would go in tournaments if there were any near me, and I would use like Cherrim Charizard Shiinotic and some fast fake out mon, as you can't use Zeraora I believe.
VGC 2014: Pachirisu out of all things VGC 2015: Landorus, Kangaskhan, Cresselia, Amoonguss... VGC 2016: Primal Groudon and Xerneas
let's hope 2017 is like 2014 in terms of diversity
Actually , if sejun met ANY gothitell mawile team , he would have lost , mawile in trick room could destroy is team with no problems , the biggest problem and only problem would be pachrisu and talonflame lead , this would be needed to be solved by rotom-heat , that was almost on every goth maw team back then , simple fake out (from ludicolo or haryiama) and thunderbolt would solve that. Also we got another two pokemon in the back to defeat and distrupt this lead too. It might or might not mattered back then , but actually , bullet punch on gardevoir in game two would have picken up the knock out most of time , sejun just got lucky on the damage roll .... :/ Even Though , im actually happy sejun won this championship , it showed that every pokemon can win with good manouvers and clever strategy... Or if it wouldnt meet the strategy it would be beaten by .... Oh well :/
We can only hope Sun and Moon shake things up.
and SM did it, vgc 2017 is the most diverse that I ever have seen in a while
nice i haven't been watching but I'm glad its diverse again :) pachirisu will always be a legend in my heart though after watching this
i stg this is more fun to watch than sports ;-;
I'm not even _that_ much of a nerd
you sure, pokemaster james?
;-;
Football is more interesting, imo.
so tru

Exactly true, the legend👍👍
Don't forget the Sitrus Berry
Salamence: a feeble effort, a pachiruzu cannot defeat a salamence in battle. Pachirizu: i didn't needed to defeat you, i just needed to distract you. Garchomp: ROCK SLIDE! Salamence: NOOOOOOOOO!
I love that Se Jun has a Pachirisu plush toy
I like how the Korean guy's entrance was pretty normal while the guy from US was kinda weird with his cape
'Murica!
I also like how he showed zero sportsmanship. First with his forfeit, then with no acknowledgement to his opponent. His body language throughout the whole thing was the same. I'm glad he lost, he's clearly a douche
Notta Fayek Forfeiting is very common in Best 2/3's. It's so you don't reveal any extra info about your team to your opponent.
Notta Fayek Allen Bercero yea he's obv a douche bc of how you sees him... and he can't be proud of his nation or think that he is representing is nation in a world tournament right? All those day when i was watching the olympic was actually me watching a bunch of -quote: kinda wierd people who showed no sportsmanship and no acknowledgement to their opponent -unquote because they have a flag of their nation and because they do not say "you beat us! thank you! you are good!" at the end.
I liek mudkipz hey! Don't make fun of Lance. He's my favourite character/trainer and he is so cool!
This masters finals is forever cemented in history. It's been 8 years and no one has come close to something so impressive.
HISTORY
This is the perfect fusion between "Video game strategy" and "Ash Favoritism/gimmick factor" and its great to watch
GOD this was a good vgc
Yes, yes it was :]
TheCanadianWifier the 2015 VGC was a disgrace and 2016 will be awful, judging from all the showdown matches in the tier I've been through. It's all about the primals.
+sato Except that primals are banned. im just pissed off about the genies and Mega Cancerskan
Nana Korsah primals are NOT banned in VGC 2016. Check out the rules.
Nana Korsah they're allowing all non mythical pokemon
I'm glad he won. It only shows that you don't have to spam Lucario, Charizard, and the same overused crap to win. It's better to go with the unexpected Pokemon, since your opponent will have a hard time guessing your moves.

***** It's not hard to make a competitive Milotic though.
Zoroark Lover I guess that's true.
***** Sorry to break it to you, but that's the doubles lower ladder. Generally, its the new, casual, or bad players sitting around there. The fact that he was using Thuderbolt Gyarados and Aggron, on a pokemon that CLEARLY had Lightning Rod and would have resisted anyways tells a lot about your opponent's skill level.
Spartan Dash I am aware of that. Who says all I do is battle on the low latter? Even so, nobody expects a Plusle with the ability Lighting Rod. Unlike spamming Lucario and Kangaskhan which are easily expected.
i love how vocal the crowd was on this one, you really felt every play
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that Pachirisu tank that Draco Meteor
I think it's really cute that he is so attached to Pachirisu and the fact he can win with it means what i always think about Pokèmon; play with your favourites pokèmon and try your best, don't focus just on winning and get mad. This is the only way to enjoy this game, in my opinion :)
He said in an interview later that he only chose it because it provided a very specific but fantastic support niche role to his team, not because of some delusional karen mantra.
***** lol
**sighs**
It's just like Pyritie said. Don't use pokemon and move sets that everyone is using. Use your favorite pokemon and moves to win. And most importantly, have fun.
***** Don't put words in my mouth, I didn't imply that at all.
THAT PACHIRISU FUCKING BRUTAL
It wasn't just luck that won an 18-year-old kid from South Korea the day. It was his knowledge of the game's mechanics and a strategy worthy of Athena that allowed him to win the champion's belt with a Pachirisu. Sejun Park really was one smart cookie, and there's a reason why he was invited to host the following year's tournament
And now, at the 2022 Pokémon World Championship, Pachirisu is recognized as a legend ❤️
Yeah, Congrats to him doing his best with Greedent in Unite
The Greedent invade that he did is a legend
So when are people going to notice that Park's team was well constructed and it wasn't just Pachirisu doing the work? Every part of the team was necessary for the strategy to work. Its a counter Meta team and it was beautifully built and it pains me that people that don't know shit and don't even pay attention to that just use Pachirisu as an excuse to shit on tiers that don't have anything to do with doubles...
I'm so happy someone said it. Pachirusu was strictly a support, and Se Juns entire team is the reason it all works well. Pachirisu will not do well in singles at all, because it's only a support.
You're right, of course. I know I just liked the fact that he didn't pull the same boring old going along with the meta shit that everyone does these days.
FraN_ he did comment on why he picked Pachirisu, iirc he originally had Amoonguss but switched it up because of Talonflame I'd assume.
we did see pachirisu do half of the hp of morotom tho,that was quite spectacular for a support pokemon
Agreed
Leave it to a Korean to make a mediocre Pokemon champion material.
The Ugly Barnacle true 😂 im korean I should know
It was a brilliant pick all jokes aside. Pachirisu not only works with the team he built, but its sort of anti meta. Or at least it was. Most teams were running rotom with thunder wave. Gen 6 also gave pachirisu the nuzzle aka better thunder wave. Follow me is a nice tool in doubles, alongside volt absorb you basically have no fear of paralysis while it's out.
The Ugly Barnacle s
Jaricko I know, right? People are discussing a lot about "this probes any pokémon you like can work!" Or "competitive is no place for soft favorites, he doesn't like pachirisu, he likes to win" but I think that what we should be praising here is how clever was the use of pachirisu in the first place! What brought him the victory was at the end, his well thought out strategy, which came after analysing the meta a choosing an odd, yet ideal pokémon for this occasion in particular. I'll say that my favourite move in this pachirisu set would be nuzzle, just because I didn't realize until now that it worked even after taunt since it's technically a physical move! But the whole set was amazingly pulled out here.
*Squidword Style* M-Mediocre?!
Imagine obtaining and leveling up 3 psuedo legendaries, and working hard to get to the finals only to lose to a *squirrel*
**SQUEAK!**
Sejun's Pachirisu=Ash's Pikachu
dude, pachirisu was my favorite pokemon when i was a child and my brother used to make fun of me because of that. watching this now is just sooo satisfactory
lies
Just imagine how insane it would be if Pachirisu had an evolution and Pachirisu can hold an Eviolite.

Amir garamyan The Orange Islands saga would like to have a word with you.
The orange saga doesn't even exist in the game so it does not really count :P
Coming back to this years later and holy shit is that Pachirisu freaking bulky! That thing literally tanked every hit and only fainted from status. Pachirisu out here looking like Ferrothorn lol.
Tyranitar: Salamance, olvida lo de ese pachirisu, la world cup 2014 pasó hace 8 años. Salamence: Tyranitar, todos los malditos dias para mi son la world cup 2014
I feel like Jeudy really could have won this if he wasn't so shocked (pun not intended) about seeing that Pachirisu. Once it came on the field, I feel like he had no idea how to deal with it because it wasn't at all in his plans

+Braden Cleur I love that quote, since I also love dark pokémon she's my favourite elite 4 ever :D
+ShigureHisame Mine too, and she's.. you know, very bangable (Lenny Face)
RulezAPower Not interested in girls but sure :D
He used Pachirisu because he wanted a redirection Pokemon and thought Amoongus was too predictable, and not because it was his favorite
+Lennychu Nobody uses Pachirisu though. Even if its not its favorite, its uncommon to do so. Especially when we all believed it was crap until this tournament.
25:00 The turn that blew minds
The crowd's reaction to Se-jun's Talonflame being frozen is literally my reaction every time a Pokemon freezes
Jeudy's Pokemon: im ready Se Jun Park's Pachirisu: im about to end this man's whole career
This is definitely one of the most legendary moments in the history of pokemon.
they'd make so much more profit if they'd just have full 6 on 6 tournaments like these
Idk I think VGC is much more competitive
Singles is a broken format. Nintendo makes decisions in game mechanics and aspects to gear it for Doubles. There wouldn't be enough profit and it would be way too difficult to establish the correct competitive atmosphere. Let's also not forget how broken Singles is without tiers/PBV systems. If you want competitive Singles, go play Pokemon Showdown, Pokemon Online, or PokeBattle.
Ketchi The real answer is a VGC battle last 15minutes max. and a single 1v1 can last more than 30minutes. So it's easier to organize a tournament in VGC. And not single is broken or vgc more competitive olol
Créma thom Have you ever tried playing VGC/Doubles in the way that Nintendo has it set up, and compared it to 6v6 Singles of any format (including Smogon, etc.)? I will admit that time consumption is an aspect to consider, but it is a definite fact that the game has been geared for VGC/Doubles, and is therefore naturally more balanced in it. Smogon/PO/PB exist because of how broken 6v6 Singles is, because otherwise they would have almost no reason to exist and far more people would want to play with Nintendo SIngles rule sets.
VGC is much more balanced format, and singles take forever. Imagine all the stalllll n_n
We'll be telling our grandchildren about this Pachirisu someday
At first, I liked Pachirisu because of it's design, but then I saw dis battle .3.
Len v i came here to see what the fuss was about with Pachirisu... wasn't disappointed.
Talk about a walk in the Park

I wish Pokemon was real, and before I get replies with "Pokemon Go" I literally mean, I want real Pokemon
Ethan Mcglone pls
ight I'll grab the lube
room 4 1 more? *Wink Wink*
Pls no animal mutations
i'd also like for creatures that can easily kill me or destroy the entire world to exist...
R.I.P. Pachirusu you got snapped :'(
I come back to this match every now and again, and it’s still incredible and inspiring
The problem was that guy had too many of the same pokemon type, with the same weakness, so of course he would naturally get swept considering he basically made himself the challenge equivalent of a dragon gym leader xD
uhm dude the gardevoir literally dies after 1 kill but yeah the gardevoir carried the damage dealing capabilities but the pachirisu being able to actually support too well plus that stun from the pachirisu was great
I know I'm late as hell... But I wouldn't call his team unbalanced, he made 2nd place among all those talended players after all.
@@lucianofrancesco4742 That doesn't mean it is not unbalanced though
@@sjakierulez That doesn't matter. We're talking about vgc, since you have to choose 4 Pokémon among 6, having 3 weaknesses to ice is not relevant as long as you have more than an answer to it. His team was great and well studied.
@@lucianofrancesco4742 I'm just saying that just because he became number 2 doesn't mean it is unbalanced, nothing more, nnothing less
You get the chance to commentate on a Pokemon battle...and you don't use the Pokemon Stadium voice?! "WAHHH! TAKEN DOWN WITH ONE HIT!!" "The finishing blow? OUTTA THERE!!!"
25:08 yes this is the scence from the comic
anyone feel kinda bad for jeud, i mean he came all this way only for the last match to be a lose/lose situation, either he beat him disappointing everyone or he lost.
I'm really tempted to go and make a competitive Pachirisu in honor of him. To be honest, with the right training, even the weakest Pokemon can rule the world. My congratulations to the champion. :)
Sunkern competitive?
A Person apparently
pachi is not weak a weak pokemon can rule the world with the right move set everything in pokemone is about team move set
jsx17 stat wise it is one of the weaker pokemon which is probably what he meant
Since when is garchomp weak? You need to watch the video before commeting cus garchomp killed everything.
A pokemon is as good as its trainer
Ok I'll make a team of magicarps
+Limylin Linnyl bruh metapods
+Ethical Syndrome I thought of smosh when you said that. HIT HIM WITH A HARDEN

indeed creativity died for this vgc so sad
+Drago Don't forget Mega Kangaskhan, and Thunderous.
getting that pachirisu to stand up at the start was a struggle
Watching this in 2019 to reminisce in the best VGC Finals ever.
I love this video. Winning with a unique Pokemon is awesome, I hope to see more like this in the future.
This was the last good VGC... Ubers ruined VGC 2015...
And by Ubers you mean Landorous
The Awsome Channel And Mega Kangaskahn.
+Bob-ombs Away And now the primals since they're unbanned
TheLegendOfSonic Wait, they unbanned Primals?! WHY?!
It's so stupid! They're fucking everywhere!
You deserve that championship spot, you go! I don't respect people that use the same exact op Uber/Legendaries in battles. ANYONE can use and train op legendaries with 500/600 base stats and win. But a true champion is a person skilled enough to use the pokemon THEY like and are their own personal favorites to win, to figure out their own strategy and not just rely on pure op stats to win. THAT is the mark of a true, ultimate champion. I'm on the pachirisu bandwagon.
It's a world championship so of course everyone will go for the strongest options available. Condemning them just because you're some hipster who prefers lesser known things is pathetic.
Jordan Ollie in no way is it pathetic. Just using a strong base stat team comp thats proven to work lacks a certain..appeal. if someone can use pokes not typically known for competitive use and shine a light on them i would definitely say they understood the mechanics of the game better and played to them.
Jordan Ollie It's not the fact that everybody uses them and its better because they're stronger, it's the fact of winning with not only the hard work and dedication factor but the factor of actually being legit, using pkmon's that aren't only used for their power. I mean, it's pathetic TO ME and all others that actually ENJOY the game and want to find challenge in it. It's just my personal opinion. If winning just because you have the stronger team is your thing, then you go for it. But just remember if you do win, you may be the strongest, but not THE BEST.
ShadowGamingXxx I get what you're saying but still; in tournaments, people are naturally attracted to the strongest options. Their primary goal is to win. Not to appease hipsters. In Se Jun's case, Pachirisu was a "strongest option" as it was the bulkiest Follow Me user allowed under last year's VGC restrictions. On top of that, he had standard mons like Garchomp and Talonflame.
ShadowGamingXxx to quote reperfan4: " Everyone taking to the comments to hold this up as some pillar of originality and attempting to undermine the competitive scene by treating his use of Pachirisu as some kind of backing for the "just use what you want, every pokemon is good!" mentality. He didn't use Pachirisu because he has some kind of personal attachment to it, because he was trying to show up the meta by being "original," or because Pachirisu is a good Pokemon. He used Pachirisu because, while Pachirisu only does a slim few things well, it was those things his team needed. His use of Pachirisu was calculated and strategic, not emotional. You wanna prove any Pokemon is good? Win a world championship with Cosplay Pikachu. "
2021 and this battle is still amazing to watch. I really love the last combination attack, super fang and dragon claw. It makes me feel Just like in the anime battles.
Its always fun seeing people use fun and underrated pokemon
