2012にほんだいひょうにちょうせん
That which is both legal, yet illegal. Possible, yet impossible. I live for that kind of loophole and shenanigans. And fortunately this is one such case.

At first glance, the 2012 Pokemon World Tournament VGC challenges are quite tough. You must face off against AIs that are not half bad, who also hold the very teams used by some of the best players of their time. In theory, this means there are no aces up the player's sleeve, right?

Wrong. There are two things that are technically possible to obtain but also not possible. See, the 2012 VGC Worlds tourney used Black and White for the rule set. But you engage the AI in Black 2 and White 2. Therefore, it is entirely possible to obtain a Landorus-Therian and an Iron Fist Conkeldurr. Both of these things are extremely advantageous in the VGC format, and your beefed up AI cannot get them. This is very similar to tripunch Alakazam in Stadium games, in that it is a fascinating loophole.

While my recent PWT videos were about esoterical move combinations, this time things have been turned upside down. It's not so much about what is hard to obtain, but what is an intriguing loophole that can be used to gain a much needed advantage against the AI. That, and the fact Eruption Heatran is a major part of this meta, who was in many ways the poster child for my new set of PWT videos. So there's still something rare.

I'd like to give a special thank you to the following people for helping me to make this particular set of battles far easier than I first thought.

Timey: RNGing the Landorus-Therian

You know that feeling when you put something aside for almost three years, but then you finally get both the motivation and know-how to pull it off? That is what happened to me here.
