>>59543554
No previous world champions made Day 2, right?

>>59543554
If it was a pure skill tournament with no RNGshit we all know Wolfe would win

>>59543580

These are your day 2 megas bro.

>>59543617
fucking abomasnow

>>59543617
mega abomasnow? neat

By my quick, probably wrong count.
23 of 57 teams are using Zard Y, meaning roughly 40% of Day 2.
That means that for the first time in perhaps any tournament, Zard Y had a slightly negative conversion rate. Started the day at 42%~

Naoto Mizobuchi and Shohei Kimura are the only World Champions still in play for their second title.

Wolfey, Paul Ruiz and Shoma Honami were eliminated in round 8.

Giovanni Cischke and Eduardo Cunha in round 7.

Se-jun Park in round 5.

Luca Ceribelli banned from the venue a day prior due to being in proximity to someone cutting in line. (insane fumble on the part of organizers)

-

Hirofumi Kimura is the only player from last years top 16 to make Day 2 this year that’s crazy

Random trivia I found on >leddit

Fix Mega Excadrill

Made it home from Day 1. How was the tournament? I spent the whole first day listening to the bands outside or looking at the cool shit on the same level as the competitive shit, but off to the side - the "Pokémon Museum" exhibit and such. Good thing I've got a 3-day pass so I'm going back tomorrow morning and then on Sunday (after church).

>>59543722
Neat. Did you watch any competition live?

>>59543722
Boring day 1. No fun teams and no stand-out plays.
Only thing worth mentioning is that basically all the usual top players jobbed hard.
What did you buy?
Saw any cuties?
Were you able to molest Wolfe?

>>59543668
jesus christ
for comparison day 2 of last year's worlds, #1 incineroar had "only" 54.7% usage

>>59543668
who's running the one aegislash? i'm now interested

>>59543728
In the sense that I walked by the tables where the competition was happening, yes. I wasn't really paying attention to the specific battles, though. BTW shout-out to the GameCubes and N64s playing Stadium that were hooked up down there for people to play lol. I'm just going to wait till it's narrowed down considerably either tomorrow or Sunday. I wanted to take advantage of the festivities on day 1 while the tournaments sorted themselves out, so I'm not trying to do the fun stuff when the serious shit's going down in the competition.
>>59543738
Got some clothes and pins. Got the Chaos Rising TCG packs with my badge too. Saw a good Leaf cosplayer hanging out with a Red. Lots of Ashes, Mistys, and Serenas, plus two Dawns. And no, I didn't even see Wolfe.

>>59543767
>Saw a good Leaf cosplayer hanging out with a Red.
Damn, you saw PL!?

>>59543675
ye real knee slapper there mate

>>59543668
I member when people thought Mega Floette would be the better fairy type than Xerneas lol

wolfe was an anomaly desu, prolific content creators are almost never the actual strongest performers at their game

>>59543775
i bet it would make you magatards seethe

>>59543779
I genuinely don't understand how Wolfe just got so ridiculously popular.
He had decent numbers for sure but nothing crazy and then I looked away for five minutes and suddenly he was constantly consistently doing 1mil per video.
I seriously wish I could know what kind of voodoo magic he used to obtain so much popularity and such an obsessive cultist fanbase. Don't tell me it was just because he was good looking because there's plenty of poketubers and general ecelebs who are pretty nice on the eye.

>>59543621
Who are the absolute madlads using base Swampert, Delphox, and Kangaskhan?

>>59543786
he's right in the perfect balance between nerdy enough to be knowledgeable in his interest, but also charismatic enough to carry presenting a video - many other players on his level are more on the spectrum or just not great at yapping

his editor and thumbnail artist also probably deserve a lot of credit, his videos have much higher production quality than other popular competitive pokemon youtubers like jimothy or electricwindgodfist or whatever the powerpoint guy is called

>>59543786
>I genuinely don't understand how Wolfe just got so ridiculously popular.
He was near Rizzo when his star was fading, which made Wolfe seem like "the next guy." After that, it was pure marketing. Rizzo has three world titles but a fraction of the subs of Wolfe because Wolfe made himself more marketable.

/ourjew/
seems like a nice bloke desu

>>59543786
Wolfe looks like a normal person for one so he gets bonus points for the mainstream immediately.
99.9% of pokemon players(not even going into competitive) are either disgusting furries, fat, nerds fat nerds, or disgusting fat furry nerds.

You'd might as well just stop watching competitive Pokemon, then

cyan skirt is mai waifu

>>59543819
>>59543822
Ummmm, but I thought the Pokemon community was very inclusive and everyone was welcome on it?????? (unless you support Trump and are a right chud, of course)

Are we going to see another USA sweep this year?

changed my mind
red skirt
no... dark blue

>>59543848
Japan's looking stronger this year DESU.

>>59543621

There's a new King of VGC

>>59543668
based /ourcunt/ tsareena taking on the world with her Aslowla dumpy

>>59543668
That abomasnow is an endangered species.

>>59543621
>some nigga is using mega abomasnow

>>59543903
I fucking kneel

>>59543786
He has ridiculously polished content now, but he got a big boost from covid when people were inside and watching a lot of pokemon youtube slop, exactly when nuzlockes and all that got big

>>59543903
OUR King

>>59543887
That nerf was bullshit, thing wasn't even super dominant, GF just hated the idea of the regional bird being meta.
Also the matter of what they did to Dark Void because of Smeargle - while simultaneously banning Smeargle from the move anyway

the top 5 over performing megas (relative to participation) by phase 2 conversion rate are

Abomasnow (1 of 1)
Camerupt (2 of 6)
Raichu Y (10 of 40)
Staraptor (27 of 65)
Dragonite (2 of 9)

the 5 worst are

Venusaur (0 of 13)
Blastoise (2 of 27)
Scovillian (2 of 24)
Gengar (2 of 23)
Froslass (2 of 20)

note i use a laplacian adjustment so ie 2 out of 20 is rated harsher than 0 from 1 or 0 from 5.

>>59543979
>benis sore

for non mega pokemon the best performing are

Kleavor (2 of 4)
Tareena (1 of 2)
Vanilluxe (1 of 2)
H-Arcanine (8 of 31)
Milotic (4 of 18)

special mention to sylveon who maintained a high phase 2 rate with a higher sample size (20 of 98)

the 5 worst

toxapex (2 of 32)
kommo-o (0 of 11)
politoad (0 of 9)
sinistcha (9 of 89)
incineroar (18 of 163)!!!

>But at what cost...

>>59543934
You should kowtow.

qrd why does r*ddit hate eric rios

>two people cut the line
>ehm actually we need to ban the person who DIDN'T cut it as well because it's their friend or something
>also you need to be banned from the whole venue because I said so despite there being no clear rule besides "if you hurt my feelings I can rape you because this is a free cuntry"
how closeted are those "security" guard?

I don't care about compniggas. Will there be WiWa info at the end?

>>59544237
Don't think we're getting anything beyond the box legos

>>59544216
they should've told them they were drag queens on their way to show their dicks to toddlers for a performance and were in a hurry, that would've granted them a premium pass instead of a ban

>>59543668
i trust glimmora and staraptor

>>59544237
No news for windswaves
You're getting more champions news at best

>>59543621
Who are the two people with Vanilluxe?
