PokéMonday Night Combat - PokéMONday Night Combat!

This is cool. I've never had the time to truly get into competitive Pokemon battling so Jan shedding some light on this with Giant Bomb is really cool. Leaving Stealth Rock in without having moves to clear the environment seems like a strange choice considering what seems to be a common counterplay isn't available, and by not taking the move you're literally leaving free damage on the table.

What a killer show!

This made my day a little better. Thanks !

Dang, Jan knows his Pokemons. I knew he did. But seeing it in action is a think of beauty. Like Watching Jeff work magic with one of his specialities.

That second game was incredible. I love this!

This is good fun, I'm going to echo the sentiment of a Nuzlocke run at some point but this some good content Jan

Awesome job Jan!! Super happy to see some more coverage of Pokemon from you guys!

Friendship ended with: Pokemon GO to the polls

New best friend: Pokemonday Night Combat!

Bring it more!!!

More Pokemon and more of this!

Keep this up Jan! Love this feature.

Not even a Pokemon fan but this feature is super effective.

@janman I'm sure you've heard this already but DO A NUZLOCKE RUN

that'd be dope as hell.

As someone who plays a lot of casual Pokémon but has never had an opportunity to scoop some PvP strats, I really loved this stream and Jan’s the best guy to do it. Not so pro that it’s over my head but advanced enough that I feel like I’m learning as he reminds himself of things. Definitely more of this please!!

I NEEEEEED to see an all Ditto team Jan!

Man this rules, I hope we get more of this stuff!

Never played a Pokemon game (or watched an episode) in my life, but I enjoyed this. Love the positive attitude Jan.

PokeMonday Night Combat needs to be a thing going forward.

Next thing you know, Jan will be playing Showdown

I love Pokemon, I really dislike competitive Pokemon. It's a world in which there are nearly a thousand Pokemon and only a third of them are actually viable. And the requirement for entry hazards also sucks. You are almost guaranteed a loss if you don't have a Pokemon on your team whose main job is to use a stealth rock and then die...

What a fun feature. I haven't done online Pokemon battling in years. It's fascinating to see how the meta has evolved. Oh and the game sound could probably use about a 25%-50% drop for the next episode. It was pretty loud! Good stuff Jan!

Title makes me miss Super Monday Night Combat

This was great! I had kind of fallen off Pokémon Let’s Go so this was exactly what I needed to inspire me to jump back in. More of this please!

Maybe even playing matches against other staff while they ask questions about what and how to play...

This was fucking rad, I’d love to see more.

Jan is the best

@huckleberrysassacre: fast Pokemon with taunt is the only counter in this game, and even that’s not a hard counter

Loved this! Please do more Jan! :)

This was a great stream. More Jan and pokemon please!

i love jan

I want more MONday night wars, I mean combat. I've never played Pokemon and this game makes me want to change that. Keep it up Jan :cools

In the words of Thor... "Another!"

This was good fun

More Monday Night Combat! This was great! Thanks Jan!!

Jan is the best.

I love Jan. Glad he's getting more and more screen time

Please make Jan slouching on a beanbag playing some games a regular feature.

Nice surprise of a stream, Jan.

I certainly would not mind this turning into a series, but it could use a co-host then.

Loved this! Love how positive Jan is, and how community-focused it was. Would love to see more! Love!

Awesome stream @janman! Going to start a new file in Ultra Moon thanks to you :)

This was just delightful ?

I like this.

I really enjoyed hearing Jan's thoughts while battling on Pokemon strats! Keep on PokeMONDAY night combating!

Wow I never knew there was so much nuance in a Pokémon battle. And in just gonna echo what everyone else said: this show was so positive !! Jan is like the most enthusiastic life coach. More !!!

Great show, Jan!

Yaay great stream! thank you Jan :D

i'm so happy mohave someone who loves Pokemon on staff. Great work Jan!

Yes, please do this weekly! I love me some Pokemon battles. Needs to get back into the DS games at some point.

More of this please! This was cool!
