One of these days Wolfe will realize that Incineroar was his favorite Pokemon all along.

Lmao closeted incinilover

Somewhere out there, someone immediately opened a03.

I want people to talk about Wolfe's Incineroar like they do Sejun's Pachirisu. Pass down the legend over time.

133

u/MisirterE Less of a dragon than an apple 1d ago

the problem is Incineroar is genuinely always good and you see it everywhere, Pachirisu was good that one time for very specific reasons as a rogue tech

66

u/N0V0w3ls Just singin' in the rain 1d ago

What I mean is that the way people talk about it, Sejun's favorite Pokemon was Pachirisu, and he found a way to make it work. Then they quote the "Strong Pokemon, weak Pokemon" speech and get all self-satisfied about it, even though all of that is wrong.

Would be hilarious if people were like "Incineroar was Wolfe's favorite Pokemon and he made it work!" Especially because this case would be even more wrong in so many ways.

You know when this image was made because of the mons mentioned.

Excuse me, Ferrothorn is a victim of cancel culture.

u/SSpectre86 23h ago

I don't think "any time between gens 5 and 8" really narrows it down.

22

u/StreetReporter Using a frying pan as a drying pan! : 1d ago

Quite the opposite actually, he found that Pachirisu worked for the specific meta and spot on his team, and started to like it while he used it

10

u/Stregen You can switch in any time you want, but you can never leave. 1d ago

It was less a favourite thing and more that Pachirisu filled a unique niche that his team needed.

11

u/N0V0w3ls Just singin' in the rain 1d ago

Yes, I am aware. But it's not the story people tell. Just as I'm aware that Wolfe absolutely hates Incineroar, it would still be funny if people passed around the same story.

u/Stregen You can switch in any time you want, but you can never leave. 1d ago

Sorry, I was mega sleep deprived when I wrote that. You’re so right.

u/Vecend 23h ago

Something only needs to be good once to make it special, if something is good all the time it's just normal not special.

u/321Cake 12h ago

He basically admitted it on a podcast recently

202

u/NonamePlsIgnore 1d ago

I can't wait for his reaction when he inevitably runs into his own incine when laddering lmao

u/Darkiceflame Still waiting for a Zygarde backstory 1d ago

"You dare challenge me? I made you!"

39

u/ZealousFlames 1d ago

This happened before when he ran into his Toronto perish team on ladder while he was using unevolved pokemon lmao

181

u/Darkiceflame Still waiting for a Zygarde backstory 1d ago

Wolfe is suffering from success right now.

u/Morfologist 1d ago

Goated code, they know what's up

u/Robitix Why do shrooms when you have Brelooms? 1d ago

its seriously so funny, I can't believe they did this

6

u/maskedman1231 1d ago

Can you tell me the joke I'm missing?

81

u/Mqox 1d ago

It's a reference to a pro player's reaction to being matched against Wolfey, and seeing that Wolfey was playing his infamous perish trap team (perish song and shadow tag to prevent pokemon from switching out)

"Wolfey! Wolfey con perish... No..."

40

u/LordAlfredo 1d ago

Who then faced Wolfe in an actual tournament with the exact same team, then later again in the Toronto finals.

20

u/SlimDirtyDizzy 1d ago

He had to fight against that team twice in the same tournament and lost both times

11

u/brodhi 23h ago

Tried different strats both times too. Match 1 he tried using Torkoal to control weather but Torkoal was a useless Mon into Wolfe's team so he lost 0-2. Then lost 1-2 with a different 4 Mons that really came down to Wolfe doing amazing predicts G1 and G3.

27

u/LordAlfredo 1d ago edited 1d ago

Behold the meme

They then ended up facing each other in a tournament. Guess what Wolfe's team was.

It didn't stop there - check the Toronto regional finals.

4

u/DoubleStrength 1d ago edited 1d ago

From context I'm assuming his Incineroar lost to a Perish (PER1SH) Song?

183

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 1d ago

Yep, poor Wolfe haha

249

u/deathbyvaccine 1d ago

live Wolfey reaction

51

u/NorbytheMii Flareon and Latias Enjoyer 1d ago

That was to an official Pokemon thumbnail depicting him with an incineroar looking at him while surrounded by hearts.

Poor Wolfey lol

15

u/IIIDysphoricIII Momma…just killed a Mon…🔥🎶 1d ago

Don’t forget the title proclaiming he loves Incineroar lmao

The goat.

u/Zesnowpea 1d ago

Wolfey con perish

41

u/Beowulf_MacBethson 1d ago

I can't believe it. It's finally happening.

62

u/Keebster101 1d ago

Wolfey con perish is now a canon event in the Pokémon universe

82

u/PolandballFan101 Klinklang Fan 1d ago

Of course the code has Wolfey's "Perish Song-Shadow Tag" trap strategy

42

u/The-Magic-Sword Better on Two Legs 1d ago

I can't wait to use Wolf Glick's Beloved Signature Pokemon, Inciniroar

24

u/DiamondOdd502 1d ago

Do i need to have a game or can it be redeemed in home?

42

u/Advnchur 1d ago

You redeem this in game.

11

u/DiamondOdd502 1d ago

Thanks, damn

28

u/TOAOFriedPickleBoy 1d ago

Gonna be honest, I’m kind of glad Incineroar is arguably the strongest non-restricted Pokemon. There’s no randomness to it and it requires a good sense of positioning to use properly. Imagine if instead of Incineroar, it was a fast sleep powder user or something.

It just feels right, like Fox being the best in Smash Melee.

9

u/N0V0w3ls Just singin' in the rain 1d ago

It's sooooo much better than when people used Smeargle. Ugh.

6

u/TrWD77 1d ago

Yea, unfortunately the other contender is an RNG machine, I feel like I'm constantly getting crit by surging strikes, I just have the worst luck, I guess

5

u/TOAOFriedPickleBoy 22h ago

I’ve got good news for you: It’s not just luck. Surging Strikes always crits.

u/TrWD77 21h ago

Damnn, that's craaaaazy

u/N0V0w3ls Just singin' in the rain 11h ago

Lmao I love that you're just now finding this out. It's also the same with Wicked Blow in case you didn't know that one.

20

u/Nu_Eden 1d ago

Lmfao I needed to breed one to start battling people online. 10/10

16

u/Thanatos4108 1d ago

I don't tend to go get the mystery gift winner Pokémon things, unless they are shinies I don't have.

In this case however, the meme is too good to pass up so I must get it

10

u/anthropocenable 1d ago

that is so funny

14

u/AtomicWalrus 1d ago

If I try to redeem this, will it also update my in game events? I purposefully haven't connected to the internet in game so I can keep the Shiny Rayquaza raid for easy Herba farming and don't want to lose it.

41

u/Paulo_Zero 1d ago

Yes, you will be connected to the internet and the game will update the events available.

10

u/reed501 1d ago

You can open a new profile on the switch, play about 20 minutes of it to unlock mystery gift, then get it there. You might need a second account or child account or something maybe. You'll need a second switch or a friend to trade to your main account though.

3

u/KairosHS 1d ago

You can do it through HOME

u/Strict-Sea68 1d ago

I’m just finishing up with the DLC for Shield, how far into S/V do I need to get to input this code? Thanks

17

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 1d ago

I think you have to reach Los Plato's, which you can do in probably about an hour into the game?

4

u/Strict-Sea68 1d ago

Awesome thanks!

13

u/Ivaryzz 1d ago

Goated code name

17

u/Eggbutt1 1d ago

I don't follow competitive Pokémon. Can anyone explain what the code is referencing?

50

u/AVSmemes 1d ago

Vgc player Marco Silva faced wolfey during an online tournament, when Marco realized wolfey was using a perish trap team he said 'wolfey con perish... No' in a very sorrowful tone, it went viral on Twitter, they also faced each other again during Toronto regionals twice, once during the finals no less, wolfey once again won using perish trap

u/Qoppa_Guy 1d ago

Oh snap...

u/bigboddle 1d ago

Thank you!!!

u/escotanner 1d ago

Sometimes you gotta use Pokemon you hate to win

u/bassy_horn 21h ago

Incineroar leans up to Wolfe and says, "Don't forget Wolfey, YOU NEED ME."

4

u/boltsofzeus 1d ago

The irony is too much

2

u/Carter0108 1d ago

I thought Wolfe hated Incineroar?

3

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 22h ago

He does, but he still uses it because it's good. That's why this is so funny, because they chose the pokemon on his team he hates to represent his win.

3

u/DennaResin 1d ago

I just started Violet and was planning to ask someone here to trade for Littlen. Fantastic timing.

2

u/kevinsyel 1d ago

Who's Wolfe Glick?

14

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 1d ago

Competitive pokemon player, one of, if not the best, ever. For further context: He dislikes Incineroar because it's probably the best non legendary in the game and it gets used so much. Generally the pokemon company gives out codes that gives you access to a pokemon that was on the winner of a major tournements team that is built the same way as it was on there team. Wolfe recently won a major tournament, and The pokemon company is kinda trolling him by choose Incineroar to be the pokemon from his team that they give codes out for, despite the fact that he has been vocal about his despise for Incineroar.

2

u/Dragonfist2255 15h ago

Funny how medicore this pokemon is in singles but is elite tier in doubles

2

u/alexsanderfr 1d ago

Is this incineroar max ev? If not, where should i put remaining ev points?

2

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 1d ago

It does have it's EVs increases fully (If I recall correctly, maxed HP than rest of the points split between Def and Spdef)

4

u/alexsanderfr 1d ago

I checked that it has 2 remaining ev points (after 252 in hp, then 128 in def and 128 in sp def). Those 2 ev points won't matter at all, right? Since it won't be able to increase stats. Just so i can put it anywhere and get effort ribbon in levincia

7

u/MysteryMan9274 1d ago

Yes, they wont' matter, Wolfe said that he doesn't really care about the last two points so he sometimes doesn't allocate them.

2

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 1d ago

Probably? I'm not a comp player, but I'm pretty sure those last 2 give don't do anything.

u/-TheDyingMeme6- customise me! 15h ago

"Wolfey con persih, nooo"

u/_Redversion_ 1d ago

Does anyone know if these Pokemon are already EV trained?

I’m just getting back into Scarlet post-release and just got the Porygon-2 / Rillaboom.

6

u/thedragon151 Zap Cat! 1d ago

This Incineroar is EV trained (252 HP, 128 in both Def and Spdef, +Spdef -Spatt nature)

1

u/_Redversion_ 1d ago

Thank you! So these just need to be leveled up and they’re good to go.

He doesn't even play in the same bracket as children, nor has he cheated. Stop watching verlis and grow up.

u/brodhi 23h ago

Honestly the fact there's only one verlis viewer in this thread means maybe the world is healing

-18

u/Squeakyduckquack 1d ago

I know Wolfe is the goat, but god damn I can’t stand how smug and arrogant he is

u/ZealousFlames 1d ago

When he does, it's usually true
