‘s latest single “IN THE SUMMER” has been unexpectedly making waves in the Pokemon GO community. The reason? The song’s intense beats and catchy chorus have been used as a soundtrack for videos showcasing an unexpected strategy in the Great Battle League (GBL) – the use of Landorus and its signature move “Earth Power” to lower opponents’ attack stat and cause chaos in battles.
GBL is a popular online PvP mode in Pokemon GO where trainers can battle with their teams of Pokemon against players from all over the world. In the Hyper League, which has a max CP limit of 2,500, Landorus is not typically considered a top pick due to its relatively low stats and weakness to common types like water and ice.
However, some trainers have been experimenting with using Landorus in a unique way, taking advantage of its Ground/Flying typing and access to the powerful move, Earth Power. This move has a 10% chance of lowering the target’s attack stat by 1 stage, making it an excellent tool for disrupting opponents’ strategies.
In videos shared on social media, trainers have been showcasing how they strategically use Landorus to lower their opponent’s attack before switching to a stronger Pokemon to finish them off. This has caused quite a stir in the GBL community, with some trainers calling it a “game-changer” and others questioning whether Landorus should be nerfed for being too overpowered.
Regardless of the controversy surrounding this strategy, it’s clear that “IN THE SUMMER” by ARASHI has brought a fun new twist to the GBL meta. Will you be trying out this unexpected tactic in your next Hyper League battles?
