@@THGMR-ox7sd I want to preface this saying that Davide Carrer most likely knows more about competitive pokemon than I do, but I am not sure why they decided to keep bringing the Venusaur Torkoal lead even when Incineroar on Wolfe's team was putting in major work. That doesn't even mention the fact that Weezing doesn't really synergize well with the Torkoal or the Venusaur itself in this matchup as you want that chlorophyll to go off and you need either the sun or the chlorophyll ability itself to use that combo.

If you’re gonna have Regigigas on your team, you HAVE to lead with it and Weezing in order for it to be as effective as possible... in my opinion. As we saw when Davide lead with the combo, it’s very effective.
Wolfe’s hair starts turning yellow when Davide says good luck. Starts turning blue when he says I’ll need to be more lucky. Flashes silver when he doesn’t say have fun: you’ve unleashed Ultra Instinct Wolfey
@@NewAgeSteel He probably watched he who shall not be named video and probably believes all his mons are hacked like he who shall not be named said as he always calls Wolfe out when he wins tournament. Apart of the VGC group on facebook myself and someone even admitted they knew the people who gave Wolfe his pokemon. They were all legit and furry boi needs to suck it up and stop bringing toxic behavior to this community.
I love wolfe's playstyle because it's perfectly reflects somebody who's played way too much pokemon "Why use think move when strong move win?" He's not predicting or overanalyzing
I think it was also in response to Davide’s team in particular, where a strong turn 1 offense utterly smashes any opening he locks himself into (since his team is built with two separate pairs in mind). Though, he has said as of late that he plays a bit more offensively than he did before, specifically in his earlier years as a player
He did a really nice play at 14:56-15:18 ish where his Dragapult was yawned, where the human play would've been to switch out (which he did) and Taunt the Torkoal (which you can see him consider as he did select Taunt first) to pretty much render him useless into Coal/Incineroar; but he predicts Davide would taunt his Incineroar with Weezing to prevent HIS own taunt into Torkoal so he could essentially get a free Yawn into Coalossal potentially, so Wolfe just went aggro and demolished with Incineroar with sun up. I guess what I'm trying to say is he did predict and analyze, just very quick/accurately, while at the same time thinking exactly what you said; Strong move op lmao
@@ek940 yeah someone made a vid a while ago about why wheesing regi isn’t nearly as good a combo as people think, mainly stating that you’re basically using two team slots to make one good Pokémon.

Mad respect to Davide, he's an insane player, he lost in the Europe final because of an unfortunate crit. He got to another final even after that. I really hope to see him again in a big final
@@keefeD146 Pretty immature way of looking at it. Everyone under the best isn't on an even playing field, all tied for second, or something like that. Wolfe won because he's one of the very few people who can even stand up to a guy as good as Davide. Most 'average' players probably couldn't take a single game off him
Wolfe wasn't even using a proper mode of his team here, he was just playing out of his mind lol. Incredible game knowledge and win condition assessment.
Definitely. He had 2 cores (Vena/Torkaol and Weezing/Regi), but no support. Definitely not the way most teams are structured. He is a top level player though, so I’m sure he knew what he was doing. Maybe just thought that each of those cores were strong enough alone that even if they don’t synergize well they will still have the raw power to win.
felt like one of the biggest issues was both cores are weak to fire types while Wolf is running a very fire centric team, so any time one of the duo is out it's almost always going down turn 1
It's really obvious, i mean if you see him there's no way you don't click it. Even when you are scrolling through videos, ur eyes are always trying to find his name

Don't you guys watch anime or Pokémon in this specific case? 😂😂 He's basically saying that Wolfey won back to back like the main character of anime who always wins no matter what.
It's an inside joke from Wolfe's community. The joke is that he has plot armor because often when it looks like he's done he wins. And it's not always his amazing skill, sometimes it's mind boggling luck that even he laughs at. As someone who watches his videos regularly can confirm he is an anime protagonist.
Ok, so I just finished the video, and I'm starting to understand that I am a casual player and that much of this is going to fly over my head, but there are a few things that confused me; 1. Wolfe's Dragapult's moveset seems odd, I'd love to hear the strategy behind it, because it's not something I would've brought along just as a normal player, and 2. Davide's repeated use of yawn and protect seemed like stalling rather than doing anything truly meaningful, and because the perspective of the match was from Wolfe's, it almost felt like watching Wolfe battle an AI. The decisions that Davide made confused me, and I don't see how those decisions were meant to give him a path to victory.
I realize it's been 4 weeks since you posted this comment, so you might have gotten an answer from your own research. But in case you haven't and were still wondering: He runs Breaking Swipe for multi-target damage as well as a way to debuff the targets' Attack by 1 stage. Will-o-Wisp is for burning physical attackers, like Regigigas and Urshifu who are both popular in this meta. The Burn status halves the Attack stat, which is why Regigias was doing such little damage after being burned. Light Screen is for reducing damage from Special Attacks, which are pretty popular compared to physical attackers in the Players Cup II meta. Both Moltres and Coalossal are Special Attackers, as well as Davide's Weezing, Torkoal, and Venusaur. And Surf is for setting up his Coalossal. It deals super effective damage, which activates Weakness Policy, raising Coalossal's Attack and Special Attack by 2 stages, and because it's a water-type move, it activates its Steam Engine ability, giving it +6 stages to Speed, making it faster than other Pokémon on the field, and allow it to attack first. Davide's use of Yawn was fine, since landing a Yawn on a Pokémon who just Dynamaxed means they'll be asleep on the 3rd turn of it. But his biggest mistake was bringing Venusaur into every game. Its best matchups were against Coalossal and Urshifu, which it hardly ever saw, and had a losing match up against every other of Wolfe's Pokémon. He needed to bring his own Urshifu to deal with Coalossal and Incineroar. No Venusaur also means no reason to bring Torkoal, since we saw how it was really only good for Yawning and setting up sun, but that also worked in Wolfe's favor. Regieleki would have been his other Pokémon and can outspeed most things and get Reflect or Light Screen up, which would have really helped negate a lot of the damage Wolfe was dishing out. Last thing to note is Wolfe provided commentary on most of his battles for the Players Cup II over on his youtube channel. So if you want to better understand the moves he makes and the reasons why he made those moves, then you can watch those as well. He sadly didn't commentate the finals, but these battles were pretty straight-forward I'd say.
I’m a few months late, but Dragapult is run as support against physical attackers, burn halves attack (physical) so will o wisp is good to have as a defensive option, breaking swipe lowers attack for both enemies, light screen covers special attackers by halving their damage, and surf is to enable Coalossal. They tend to be run as a pair because surf hits your own Coalossal, procing weakness policy and steam engine simultaneously, giving him the stats to immediately dynamax and ohko somebody with GMax Volcalith. The protects and yawns were fine, even if the strategy looked spotty in hindsight. Yawn is the typical answer to Dynamax, because Sleep is absolutely crippling in doubles (and in general), forcing your opponent to either switch out and end dynamax early or stay in and tank damage from the enemy
This match was so good den and still good now Wolf winning with half of this team again to win the Charlotte regionals show how good these Pokemon are but also what an amazing player Wolf is ❤
I’m really confused on how he got this far with this strat, if you take away the weezing the Reggiegigas is absolutely useless and on the other side of reggiegigas goes down then your weezing is just dead weight
I'm curious about the torkoal aswell. i don't know the meta at all. I understand that torkoal is supposed to boost venusaur, but somehow it seems like dead weight. it's just spamming yawn and not doing any damage
I really wish we could have seen a world in which set 1 game 2 Venasaur wasn't burned out of the game. Maybe even a world where the sleeping powder landed. I'd like to see how it would have played out.
I don't know Davide's entire moveset but he obviously should have done some switchins and switchouts, especially since his Venusaur dying means he would lose too early. Not to mention that there was one small minor detail he missed out on: USE PROTECT or MAX GUARD

I love Wolfe! 🤗 His competition matches are always amazing to watch.
he hacks
@@ThatFnafGuy200 😮😮😮😱
@@ThatFnafGuy200 everyone hacks, its literally so impossible to get good ivs for legendaries without many many hours of work. his strategy and foresight in these games are incredible, so why does it matter
Wolfe just looks like he is tired of his mom forcing him to play Pokémon at these competitions lol.
Great matches! And great commentary, too!
That was an AMAZING play!!!! I hope I can enter that level of Pokémon mastery one day.
Cant wait to get into competitive pokemon. Really enjoy these streams and being able to see such great talent. Thank you for your time to anyone who reads this, hope your new year is starting off well. 1 love yall be easy
This is a great gen for breeding and training in pokemon
Good luck
Good luck mate, I think you can still register for the players cup 3 qualifiers
Thank you guys for all the loving support, sadly dont have a switch yet so been practicing on radical red and smogin battle online 🙂
@@imikegaming2070 showdown is really helpful
i can imagine Verlisify makes another "Hackusation" of the winner is cheating lmao
There’s a dude in the comments going all over the place saying wolfey is a cheater, and that person is subscribed to Verlisify. So I believe he did.
@@RedNayl The best part is he's also subscribed to a qanon channel
Don't validate those pigeons by mentioned them. Let them wail alone.
Wolfe blind sheep is an accurate representation 😂. Keep wondering the fields you blind sleep 🐑
Wolfe looks pissed in the thumbnail
Like he's recalling Glaceon
*determined
Wolfe Glick’s intimidate
I would be pissed too if people constantly accused me of cheating
@@Marcopolo9
Because he is
I am going to be one of the positive comments and say I enjoyed this and look forward to seeing how the players cups 3 and 4 play out.
11:47 that face🤣, he looks surprised with the forfeit
so stubborn Davide with that Venusaur
Such a huge Wolfe fan here, loved seeing the intro
No emotion... it’s like they’re serving prison sentences with those mugshots... poor guys. Who’s holding them at Pokémon Gun point?
Easy, they don't care for the game, they hack their mons
@@Stuntlyd4 what is the point you're tryna make
@@Stuntlyd4 why being so salty, maybe git gud?
Mr. Pikachu
@@lily-_- what
I normally play singles but these plays were really insane
Fantastic game Wolfey! Commanding performance.
I remember watching these live. Wolfe cleaned house at the end of Players Cup 2. Unstoppable.
I’ve never seen a Pokémon cup this is dope it feels like a sport like soccer or basketball this is fire 🔥
Wolfey’s plot armor is insane
Great finals. Well played by both players. :)
Damn - good stuff!
Oh and dude, Wolfe, happy birthday!! 🥳
Wolfey is an anime protagonist confirmed.
How?
What?
Don't you guys watch anime or Pokémon in this specific case? 😂😂 He's basically saying that Wolfey won back to back like the main character of anime who always wins no matter what.

It's an inside joke from Wolfe's community. The joke is that he has plot armor because often when it looks like he's done he wins. And it's not always his amazing skill, sometimes it's mind boggling luck that even he laughs at. As someone who watches his videos regularly can confirm he is an anime protagonist.
Ok, so I just finished the video, and I'm starting to understand that I am a casual player and that much of this is going to fly over my head, but there are a few things that confused me; 1. Wolfe's Dragapult's moveset seems odd, I'd love to hear the strategy behind it, because it's not something I would've brought along just as a normal player, and 2. Davide's repeated use of yawn and protect seemed like stalling rather than doing anything truly meaningful, and because the perspective of the match was from Wolfe's, it almost felt like watching Wolfe battle an AI. The decisions that Davide made confused me, and I don't see how those decisions were meant to give him a path to victory.
No your 10000% right abt everything I think davide was just playing way to defensive where wolfies going for fast kills
I realize it's been 4 weeks since you posted this comment, so you might have gotten an answer from your own research. But in case you haven't and were still wondering:
He runs Breaking Swipe for multi-target damage as well as a way to debuff the targets' Attack by 1 stage. Will-o-Wisp is for burning physical attackers, like Regigigas and Urshifu who are both popular in this meta. The Burn status halves the Attack stat, which is why Regigias was doing such little damage after being burned. Light Screen is for reducing damage from Special Attacks, which are pretty popular compared to physical attackers in the Players Cup II meta. Both Moltres and Coalossal are Special Attackers, as well as Davide's Weezing, Torkoal, and Venusaur. And Surf is for setting up his Coalossal. It deals super effective damage, which activates Weakness Policy, raising Coalossal's Attack and Special Attack by 2 stages, and because it's a water-type move, it activates its Steam Engine ability, giving it +6 stages to Speed, making it faster than other Pokémon on the field, and allow it to attack first.
Davide's use of Yawn was fine, since landing a Yawn on a Pokémon who just Dynamaxed means they'll be asleep on the 3rd turn of it. But his biggest mistake was bringing Venusaur into every game. Its best matchups were against Coalossal and Urshifu, which it hardly ever saw, and had a losing match up against every other of Wolfe's Pokémon. He needed to bring his own Urshifu to deal with Coalossal and Incineroar. No Venusaur also means no reason to bring Torkoal, since we saw how it was really only good for Yawning and setting up sun, but that also worked in Wolfe's favor. Regieleki would have been his other Pokémon and can outspeed most things and get Reflect or Light Screen up, which would have really helped negate a lot of the damage Wolfe was dishing out.
Last thing to note is Wolfe provided commentary on most of his battles for the Players Cup II over on his youtube channel. So if you want to better understand the moves he makes and the reasons why he made those moves, then you can watch those as well. He sadly didn't commentate the finals, but these battles were pretty straight-forward I'd say.
I’m a few months late, but Dragapult is run as support against physical attackers, burn halves attack (physical) so will o wisp is good to have as a defensive option, breaking swipe lowers attack for both enemies, light screen covers special attackers by halving their damage, and surf is to enable Coalossal.
They tend to be run as a pair because surf hits your own Coalossal, procing weakness policy and steam engine simultaneously, giving him the stats to immediately dynamax and ohko somebody with GMax Volcalith.
The protects and yawns were fine, even if the strategy looked spotty in hindsight. Yawn is the typical answer to Dynamax, because Sleep is absolutely crippling in doubles (and in general), forcing your opponent to either switch out and end dynamax early or stay in and tank damage from the enemy
Wolfey can't stop to show dome humour in a serious pokemon official channel video :D
He is great
Pog Nekkra, casting two of my favorite games!
Davide: "IMA USE SLEEP MOVES."
Wolfe: "I'm just gonna be faster and kill them and ruin the whole strat."
Rosemary is such an awesome commentator! Love it!
This match was so good den and still good now Wolf winning with half of this team again to win the Charlotte regionals show how good these Pokemon are but also what an amazing player Wolf is ❤
Seeing my boy regigigas being here is truly a beautiful thing to see
"He's been able to run the GAMBIT" lol
I came here to say this. Its "gamut" Lmao
@@glooperscooper Somebody call me?
Wolfe kind of annihilated him here
On a side note, the announcers both have the cutest Poke decor in the back
Whoa!! Carrer Armato ha fatto strada da quando ho giocato contro lui e il suo Roserade a Milano!
Wolfe has proven again and again to be the Pokemon Champion! for a short while
You guys really should upload the streams...I miss watching all the matches since jt pkmn got thanosed
Wolfe is a hack. Known cheater.
@@frankidkmyfam344 cool? Don't remember saying anything about.
After i watched the zacian cup, i love this party with regigigas, and coalossal.
Speechless. Just speechless. Wolfey went far beyond what I thought possible.
45:51 when she see’s that I send out my diglett on our first battle
Lmfao
Did someone tell them both weren't allowed to smile in the screen shot 🥴
RegiG’s attack was cut in half 3x
Burn+ two attack drops + slow start
Davide may have lost that last game, but the Lead Regigigas-Weezing was incredible to watch. Mad respect.
The boy Wolfe looks so sad in the thumbnail
Damn Wolfey on the hunt! That was destructive! Happy Birthday 😂
He hacks lol how do people not see this
@@frankidkmyfam344 let me guess verlisify told you
Lol, that Nasty Plot into dynamax is almost a win condition in and of itself
Wow, Wolfe outplayed and read so hard.. well deserved win!
I’m really confused on how he got this far with this strat, if you take away the weezing the Reggiegigas is absolutely useless and on the other side of reggiegigas goes down then your weezing is just dead weight
I'm curious about the torkoal aswell. i don't know the meta at all. I understand that torkoal is supposed to boost venusaur, but somehow it seems like dead weight. it's just spamming yawn and not doing any damage
Just watched Wolfe murder a man.
Game 2 was ridiculous - that Incineroar did so much! Davide just got pantsed this entire double-match.
Very good plays from Wolfe. Did a phenomenal job adjusting his moves and team.
I really wish we could have seen a world in which set 1 game 2 Venasaur wasn't burned out of the game. Maybe even a world where the sleeping powder landed. I'd like to see how it would have played out.
Is this just the final matches from the tourney a month ago?
The Pokemon company takes down the players cup streams
That was a dominating performance good job wolfe
I don't know Davide's entire moveset but he obviously should have done some switchins and switchouts, especially since his Venusaur dying means he would lose too early.
Not to mention that there was one small minor detail he missed out on: USE PROTECT or MAX GUARD
Wolfe Glick, back against the wall
SPOILER:
I started the video to see a WolfeyVGC vid on the side titled "How I won The Players Cup 2 With Coalossal"... there goes my suspense😅
Wolfe, looked happy in all of his other pictures. I can't tell if he's determined, pissed, or annoyed in this one...
Mad Bc he’s in the losers bracket, mad wolfie is dangerous
Wow amazing battles
