To add insult to injury, the Koraidon/Lunala core won worlds, but Giovanni played way better.
Amoonguss was replaced by Brute Bonnet and Chi-Yu was used instead of Incineroar.
Sometimes these meta mons are crutches and actually drag the team down if they're not appropriate. Giovanni made almost no changes to his team during all of Regulation I. Instead he learned how to play it in almost every scenario, even the bad matchups.
>>

Bros was my goat carried by Dynamax? Was that why he made the video?
>>
>>58183970
Not only was Koraidon/Lunala the winner, 2nd place was running it too. Koraidon in general was also all over the top cut, so Wolfe has no excuse with his team choices for losing.
>>
>>58185113
2nd place wasn't running lunala. but yeah koraidon was on a lot of teams.
>>
>>58183412
>It took an E-celeb to get VGC players to know that a Pokemon with better bulk than Mew, 135 Speed, 135 Attack that gets a x1.3333 boost in Sun that it sets itself would be good
That explains a lot about the VGC playerbase actually
>>
>>58185113
James Evans ran Koraidon/CSR.
CalyrexS loves being the fastest thing on the field and has a good match up into Lunala, but if you don't bring Lunala and instead bring priority sucker punch support and, a faster Fluttermane, and even a scarfed Chi-Yu then their horse is rendered inert.

you are understating rays accomplishment. He got 3 worlds wins back to back
>>
>>58185715
The metas develop much faster and less localized because it's not 2009 anymore.
It used to be that "teams" or clubs of people online would develop strategies in isolation/secrecy.
No one could ever do what Ray did again because the competition is way stiffer and develops faster.
>>
>>58183218
I mean it's not like Pokemon is a fighting game that's designed for maximum skill expression.

Wolfy's regionals performances really dominate the scene, you don't call a quarterback who gets into the playoffs every year but has only won one superbowl washed up.

>>
>>58185715
Hmmm almost like the game is complete RMG bullshit or something.
>>
>>58185756
Wolfesissies are always dishonest. They've perfected the art of downplaying Ray just so they can prop up their washed-up fraud.
>>
>>58185756
i’m aware, he’s still the literal only multi-time worlds winner, which was my point
>>58186488
look at his results after his threepeat. if you think wolfe is washed, rizzo has been washed for fucking ever. i don’t think he is, i just think it’s hard to compare modern vgc to vgc from 15 years ago. there’s a reason it’s been so long since anyone has gotten more than 1 world win, so i’m giving wolfe the edge based on his regional dominance
>>
>>58185075
yeah, nobody's won more than 1 worlds because the game devolved into rng bullshit
>>
>>58186529
And here you have a prime example of a Wolfekek repeating the exact same lines like a bot. No thoughts. Empty head. Only the the pre-programmed dishonest arguments. Zero self-awareness. Sad!
>>
>muh world champ
Yeah fuck this yid. He’s a grifting faggot.
>>
Top 50 out of a 1000+ entrant competition is still damn impressive. Not even a dicksucker, but some of you anons unironically need Jesus in your system.
>>
>>58186634
he’s tied for second in worlds wins and has a commanding lead in regional wins, i don’t see what other argument i need. you wanna consider ray rizzo better, sure, 3 worlds is crazy, but until someone else gets a second worlds title i’m putting wolfey first, top 2 minimum
>>
>>58183245
This was arguably his best season. He won the (at the time) two largest tournaments ever. The competition in the 2025 EUIC was an order of magnitude harder than anything from 2016, even Worlds. The playerbase is just better now.
>>
>>58183970
Brute Bonnet and Chi-Yu aren't exactly not-meta.
>>
>>58186922
Brute Bonnet was definitely not seen much anon, the usage tracking sites show it at 1.6% usage in Reg I and if you specify Best of Three, then it saw 1% usage.
On the other hand Amoonguss was on 16% of teams in reg I.
>>
>>58183467
England has never won a World Cup
They've only won a Jules Rimet
>>
>>58185715
The only repeat world champ is Ray Rizzo, whose wins were all in gens 4 and 5, when the competition was, to put it nicely, not very steep.
There's more competitive Pokemon players now than ever and not only does it mean the oldheads are struggling to keep up, but also that even the new players all have way more to contend with.
>>
>>58183970
>Giovanni made almost no changes to his team during all of Regulation I. Instead he learned how to play it in almost every scenario, even the bad matchups.

It would be nice if he would address the vgc season in real time(even a little), because you know some portion of his audience isn't familiar with how the tournaments are structured and they have been aware that worlds happened.
In their mind "largest" = Worlds. Cynical marketing at its finest. Does Wolfe have a merch store?

Aside from the other explanations (harder competition, way more congruent meta), the most obvious reason is that this is a RPG game, it's RNG-heavy and no single player is immune to bullshit. Some days you get the best dice roll, most days you don't.

It's clickbait for a different tournament, and clickbait is just how youtube works. The videos take months to make, especially when they are 4 and a half fucking hours long. I guess Wolfe has great viewer retention stats on his channel so he wants to maximize total watch time. Expect the worlds video to be 6 hours long even though he barely made it to the second day.

I'll guess it's 2 hours unless he spends time talking about other people's teams, which he rarely does because his branding is himself.

Yes everyone still injects their mons, especially legendaries that need 0 atk or speed IVs. If Champions lets us adjust IVs, or simply removes them by making all mons auto 31, then we'll finally be at a point where injecting isn't needed to save a ton of time teambuilding.
>>
>>58189461
>especially legendaries that need 0 atk
Why don't they just delete foul play? They deleted hidden power and pursuit so might as well delete the other thing that inconveniences people.
>>
>>58189471
I don't think pursuit ever had major use in VGC, where switching is much less common. I can't even call it laziness on GF's part, since it took more effort to delete it instead of copypasting over to the new game. It can only be out of spite.
>>
>>58189471
confusion and strength sap are also a thing, although much more rare to see than foul play. so there would still be a reason to have 0 atk on all special attackers.
>>
>>58189487
Crazy that the series has gone this long and they never made a move that randomly affects special attack to force physical attackers into 0 spatk IV.

Possibly only for rentals, all 6 perfect IVs.
The incentive for playing the games is to import pokemon that have better stats.
>>
>>58185180
You obviously have zero knowledge of what you’re talking about. In nearly every objective measure, Koraidon is the inferior choice for a restricted mon, but you wouldn’t know anything about that would you?
>>
>>58189643
That would be so unbelievably gay if the main advantage to transfering mons was getting access to 0 IVs.
>>
>>58189727
I guess that and being able to use your shiny bros.
>>
>>58183218
I love how when now he lost, the photo shows him as sweaty, unbuttoned, kind of ugly slob.

They shouldn't take that long to make, but not because of a slow team but because the videos are just too fucking long. He does a detailed replay and commentary of every turn of every game, which needs to be recreated for recording after the tournament, and his videos always have original assets and heavy edits. If he wins a tournament, that's a lot of battles to do for that. The problem is he took an hour and 40 minutes just explaining his team, his arrogance (?), and his real life before the tournament, and that segment had the most assets and editing.

So is nobody going to point out that ego is a major factor in the success of anybody near the top of their game in any field? You don't put that much time and effort into a videogame without one.
These threads come off as a bunch of achievementless losers seething that somebody else is better than them.
That or its just one furry doing all that seething for an entire community in one thread.
You wanna hate him cause he's annoying fine, but if he was a complete egoless doormat of a person nobody would have ever heard of him.

Most other "fields" aren't a children's videogame.
Some self awareness goes a long way, he's not winning an olympic gold, or the Indianapolis 500, or the SuperbOwl.
He doesn't even need to self-deprecate, but branding yourself as "the best ever" is something that audiences tend to do for you based on results alone. (Like AJ Foyt, Tom Brady, etc they didn't brand themselves that way)

Why doesn’t pokemon strive to make the game more balanced anyway? Vgc takes alot of experience but the fact that maybe 4 legendaries out of dozens are somewhat viable is a total joke. Your options in a game with nearly 1000 pokemon is much smaller than it should be.
>>

Who? Wolfe had the most wins of anyone this season and I believe the third most top cuts.

hes still got more wins than most people and no one can win consecutive worlds modern day anyway. apparently hes distracting himself taking notes for le epic videos mid tourney maybe he should stop doing that shit
>>
>>58195127
Mono restricted is just a bad format for balance. When you can only bring one, you have to bring the best. When you can bring two, it opens up Pokemon that on their own aren't the best (Lunala) but are great complements. Same with the pick 4 of 6 nature of VGC. When every Pokemon needs to come to every match then every Pokemon needs to be generally good. When a Pokemon can be benched most of the time but brought in for key matchups, it opens up the game to niche picks (Brute Bonnet) that otherwise aren't used.
>>

EUIC had over A THOUSAND PEOPLE and hosted the best players from EU, NA, LATAM and good Japan players come over to play for an invite and money. youre retarded

There were more good players at the 2025 EUIC than there were at 2016 Worlds.

42nd. The first 10 in placements usually follow the same rule outside of the teens.
1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th-20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th-30th, 31st, 32nd, 33rd, 34th-40th, 41st, 42nd, 43rd, 44th-50th, etc.

im new to watching vgc but theres only one worlds every year. Other games will have multiple champion ship level events.
>>
>>58195812
Worlds narrowed the players down to just those that won a regional/international as well as those with the most championship points from their country. (Only your best 8 results count for points, so going to more tournaments doesn't really fix it)
EUIC had a lot of players, but if they didn't qualify for worlds then they weren't the crème de la crème.
The best players were at worlds and no one had anything on Giovanni.

Pokemon has too many moving parts and dice rolls to get a consistent streak in in-person events where rounds have to be limited because of time.
>>
>>58196615
Didn't seem to bother Giovanni across 15 games where he lost only 1.
Often times if you're in a position where rng is your only saving grace, it means you didn't play well enough before then.

Wolfe has been amazing during S/V, but the problem is he keeps peaking right before Worlds so the field has had time to adjust to his strategies and teams. Being famous is a massive handicap in VGC, and nobody has more eyes on him than Wolfe.
>>
>>58188818
This is just standard procedure in sports. Wolfe the Tom Brady / Tiger Woods / Messi of VGC, of course he’s gonna have the most haters.

It also doesn’t help that he IS arrogant, which personally I don’t have a problem with, but I think it’s silly that he isn’t aware of it. He should just embrace it, there’s nothing with competitors having egos.
>>
>>58196737
Ok let's see him repeat that next year.

I'm talking about tournament streaks, not round streaks. The fact that worlds only happens once a year and it has so few rounds because of venue booking means the winner of worlds is basically a lottery between all the highest level attendees. It's not chess, hell it's not even comparable to a cardgame like yugioh which is ultra consistent and if you brick it's because you allowed yourself to in deckbuilding.
>>
>>58196823
>the winner of worlds is a lottery
Insane cope and you don't even play or watch it.
>>
Wolfe is an obnoxious faggot, love seeing him fail, but modern tournaments are beyond gay. Forced to show your opponent your full team, movesets and EV spreads. What's the point? You have zero surprise factor now. Yeah the team reveal shit started in gen 5, but why do you have to show moves and EV spreads now?
>>
>>58196855
They don't show EV spreads, you're a tard.
>>
>>58196737
>Guy who literally had 0 regional or international tournament wins before this wins worlds
>”this is proof rng don’t matter bro”
Only one former world champion made the round of 16 this year, and that was also as far as they got. VGC isn’t like Chess where the better player wins 90% of the time. It has even more variance than golf.
>>
>>58196855
Open team sheets are only a disadvantage for shitters, and they don’t reveal EV/IVs. Only items and movesets.
>>
>>58196760
Imagine sucking his dick this hard, did it ever occur to you that he "peaks" before Worlds because they're simply easier tournaments? Being a big name doesn't matter either, he doesn't even stream his serious teams or practice.
>>
>>58195144
A lot of top players take notes during tournaments, it isn't just for videos.
>>
>>58196902
Most players are "literally who" to you because you don't follow the circuit.
You know Wolfe because he marketed to you successfully.
>>
>>58185715
VGC players run muddy water over surf for the acc drops.
>>
>>58197008
They don't run either.
Muddy water misses like a motherfucker and you don't want to always protect your ally pokemon every time you use it.
Basically no one here plays the game at all, but they sure know a lot about Wolfe because the marketing was successful.
The world champ difference this year was going 7-3.

He literally spent like 40 minutes doing exactly that in his last video. He absolutely is leaning into it. Hell did you even hear his victory speech? He was borderline a a low stakes anime villain.
I agree that only narrow minded wankers have a serious problem with him though, he has no tangible scandals to be worth being pissed off at, or anything to really assassinate his character.
>>
>>58183218
The criticism of Wolfe's arrogance has got to come from absolute losers. In every video he always shouts out and glazes his opponents, I imagine only someone coming from an insecure position hates somebody for having an ego and being able to play so well. If you're confident in yourself, you probably aren't wasting your time being mad about someone being good at an Indonesian dog torture simulator game
>>
>>58197314
I just think it's funny to post this massive video about a tournament win right after he lost the recent one.

Pretty good variety in the top 8 at worlds.

no shit worlds is harder, that’s why no one has won it more than once since ray rizzo threepeated the first three years. people bitching about wolfe being washed don’t offer up a bunch of players that are actually better than him because they forget this crucial fact
>>
did he try to perish trap

>>58196851
Most of the players at Worlds are at the same or similar skill level. Who wins comes down to rng and matchup rng. You could rerun Worlds 10 times and get a different winner every time.
>>
>>58197061
Surf hits your partner, retard. It is worse then Muddy Water in VGC, even with the better accuracy.
>>
>>58198356
>who wins comes down to rng
You didn't watch any of the tournament at all. I agree they're all very skilled, but being skilled doesn't mean you're playing your best.
Izawa didn't get Ho-Oh to top 16 based on luck and Giovanni never really changed his team for all of Reg I. In other words he knew what to do in almost every matchup and made better predictions.
Rng is not affecting the game nearly as much as you believe it is.
