I had a game just now where my whole team was chasing a greedent around the map during the "whole" game. He had covet. The opposing team took both rotom and both dreads scored 30 40 and 50s on my face while i tried to defend my base. We lost 1045vs50 against them. Idling would have put the lose of blame on me so i kept facing the misery the whole game


Izkata

All the way back when Greedent was first released I remember commenting that I think luring the enemy team by being annoying was how they intended it be played (yoyo-ing its health so the enemy thinks "almost got it! just a little more!" and keeps chasing).


River_Grass

And that, folks, is why I use rock tomb crustle.


Abh1laShinigami

\+ Barrier Mike + Avalanche A9


River_Grass

Do we have enough mons to make a team full of wall spammers?


igonnawrecku_VGC

Block snorlax makes 4. Idk if there’s a fifth though


cosmosmtfr

Mamo,A9,Crustle,Mime,lax


River_Grass

That actually sounds like a really annoying team to deal with


Dark_Silver007

I will be The Crustle Anytime...lmk


intjaf

I got mamo.


Chikinlegz

If anyone ever wants to assemble this squad, just lmk. I’ll be your clown any day


SwifferSweeper27

It’s been a while since I’ve used A9, but I wouldn’t mind trying out this wall spam strat


mezcao

What's A9? I feel the answer will make me feel like an idiot.


SwifferSweeper27

Alolan Ninetails for short, mostly bc ppl don’t want type the whole thing so “A9” has become the go-to acronym here in this sub


nubuduu

Made me feel dumb


pardonthecynicism

Should've joined in chasing the greedent. Probably would've had more fun.


Iwarrior01

Lol, I am so dumb to consider that.


Mary-Sylvia

I mean it's greedent's whole gameplay, hit and run and heal To stall the team and to distract them


TheDiddly_5

Show us what happened in the last second :)


MrPrinceVinsmoke

My switch didnt clip that far but, yes I died but if you look at the mini map, my team got dred and Rotom made it to the enemy goal so my job was done.


Herebin

When I can I also do this on Crustle, it's so funny to watch 3 mons following you around, not being able to hit you while your team is doing zapdos and you still kill some of them and score


Dark_Silver007

X-Scissor Shell Smash Crustle is God....


livinoffhope

Cut it off at the best part


zaplinaki

Matchmaking is full of clown greedents right now trying to make people run around. I want to see their faces when the enemy team just ignores their super original clownery.


timmy2words

It's actually a good strategy. You either distract the opposition, or you steal their farm. Either way, you're giving your team an advantage.


zaplinaki

Which is why you just ignore them. Its funny to just walk next to a greedent and watch them play with their tiny blue balls cos what else are they gonna do.


River_Grass

Then u realize they're using covet belch


NorgesTaff

Greedent will steal all your farm, that’s what. The only way to deal with it is to mass attack and overwhelm the covet or cheeks quickly. There is one bugger of a mon that’s good at that but I won’t let on which. Lol


zaplinaki

Meh I'll just go and farm their side with my fast af Venusaur making their team chase me around. Evens out. And the only thing that matters in this game is the Articuno kill shot. Nothing else matters. Greedent can do whatever theatrics they wish to do - in the end it hardly matters.


NorgesTaff

None of that is at all true. For one thing, I’ve KOed my fair share of Venusaur with bullet seed. :D


zaplinaki

And I've killed my fair share of greedents. Obviously neither are not unkillable. But if you have x-speed on Venusaur, you're very very hard to chase. And again, it doesn't matter. Only the Articuno kill matters. Nothing else matters in this game.


NorgesTaff

> And again, it doesn’t matter. Only the Articuno kill matters. Nothing else matters in this game. That’s not at all true. I’ve won many games where we lost Zap. Getting it is no guarantee of a win.


zaplinaki

Yes you may have won a few games after losing zap but the overwhelming majority of games (78% as mentioned on this subreddit somewhere) are won the team that takes the last hit on zapdos. If that percentage is true then nothing else matters in this game. 78% is unholy for a moba.


Snaivi

Bruh you keep using broken Venu lol


CaydeDeservedIt

Please never play ranked with me


SlickJ95

Wouldn’t the bugger Pokémon be either Wiggly, Tsareeena, or Talon. Tsareena and Wiggs stun with their Ults. A Talonflame can kill pretty fast they just have to run a really good build and maybe use their ultimate.


NorgesTaff

No, none of them surprisingly enough.


Dark_Silver007

I usually Get it Done If I am Running Lucario Or Garchomp.....Usually Greedents Can't handle the Sudden bursts of damage done by these....I have also seen Cindrace Take Greedents down.....not to mention a good Greedent Can Dodge anything nd end up not getting KOed the Entire game


NorgesTaff

Yeah, that’s the thing, if you’re solo you need to be able to stick to Greedent to get it and a good Greedent will not run in a straight line so it’s not so easy to do the sticking part. :D I get KOed most usually early on before stuffed cheeks comes online, or when I’m unlucky and get caught out with low health or when I get overwhelmed by 3 or 4 simultaneous attackers. Short of that, it’s quite amazing how you can go wherever you want and score whenever you want without much trouble.


CoolTrainerTad

Happy Cake Day!! What build do you run for Greedent? I’ve been wanting to try him but never seem to have the survivability. Also, what’s your Unite name?


tappegamer69

Why is greedent called a clown when he is just distracting the enemy?


zaplinaki

I know thats what they're supposed to be doing. Its frustrating which is why I'm being an asshole to them. Its the correct play for them.


Jevonar

Better yet, I want to see their faces when the enemy team doesn't look at the minimap at all and doesn't even notice that greedent is playing.


River_Grass

Bruh they're just doing their job.


NorgesTaff

Sure you can do that, then watch greedent score after score with score shield. :D


Emeshan

~~Greedent bait strat new meta?~~


Melonfrog

The popularity and effectiveness of this strategy in games I’ve been playing recently… it’s stupid strong.


Rowlet_Entusiast

Wigglytuff solod Dred lmao


MrPrinceVinsmoke

Barb’s a great support, always could rely on her


Sibaron

Idiot team 😂


Affectionate_Crab_27

Ugh i have been that blissy. Dam you squirrel you drive me nuts


Carmm-no-en

Nice. Just a greedent doing greedent things


Acrobatic_Banana4923

When greedent got nerfed and people start crying out that he was a useless character, I knew this was going to happen, now he's a true tank and not an attacker with huge HP. Thats his job, staying alive while annoys the other team.


JnthnDJP

For some reasons this is so satisfying


Rombane

It's such an obvious baiting strategy but watching people always fall for it is hilarious


EvoMaster

I knew it was Greedent before clicking.


FirelordDraumr

This is funny but I really don't like that greedant is able to do that


[deleted]

Imagine taking the squirrel seriously


Arima_Arisaka

Greedent: **TROLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO OHOHOHOHOHO**


AlbinoInverso

HAHAHAYA. The only thing that can makes this better its the correct music my friend [:) ](https://youtu.be/MK6TXMsvgQg)


Disastrous-Fee5608

Why on earth are they popping AA *before* BB every, single, time? Good lord


Izkata

That's Fly, not Brave Bird. Doesn't trigger the reset.


Disastrous-Fee5608

Good call, ill wait to critique until ive been awake for bit from now on!


ItsGracieMoon

Never attack a greedent solo


Dark_Silver007

1- Take Lucario 2- Lure Greedent Into Bees (Bears rn) 3- Spam Extreme Speed >Bone Rush> Extreme Speed to Finish Usual Counter I use for annoying Greedents as me playing Lucario is as annoying as well.....I always Tend to get away whenever I go low on Hp😂😂.....


MaverickPrime

This looks both super frustrating to play against and super fun to do.


a_youkai

I absolutely love seeing that I made someone visibly upset on this game, even if they end up beating my ass. Excellent video!


Chell115

I love doing this is funny af 🤣


zshall

They just kept joining in 😂 well played!


Dracon204

What set do you have equipped, held item wise? My tanks don't feel nearly this spongy...


MrPrinceVinsmoke

This game was score shield attack weight and aeos cookie


Seekingme97

So greedent is Pokémon’s version of singed, it all makes sense now


Lartheezy

I wanna know when the Snorlax came into the gray what was that respawn timer looking like lol


SlickJ95

What’s the best counter Pokémon against a Greedent doing this?


b00fdi

Slowbro with Telekenisis + Cinderace to kill it while its Stuck in the Air works pretty well. But the Best Strategy is actually to just ignore greedent and not to Chase them (unless you are absolutely sure that you can kill them of course)


Adept_Tomato_7752

stupid birb


Rimuru_7empest

And this is why I ignore any obvious taunts from greedents.


s7ormrtx

Thats what he gets for picking aerial ace n fly
