This was a fun battle and a lot of fun. I love shiny Politoed and it just looks like more of an evolution from Poliwhirl. Poliwrath just looks like a mad poliwhirl lol. As always I like the commentary Liam is so engaging. I also like how he tells us what the moves are going to do as well as how effective its going to be it helps me learn a ton. Awesome job as always mate.
Poliwrath was my first holographic card as a kid, and a member of my first ever nuzlocke team, so I kind of adore it. But I think Politoed is one of the cutest Pokemon and I like its more reasonable weaknesses. These guys and the slowpoke line might be some of the hardest for me to choose favorites on. Either way this was a great battle!
Poliwrath, i do like you alot, but Politoed is just so amazing! Its adorable, love its design, godly with Drizzle and Surf, ESPECIALLY with a teammate with Water Absorb like Lapras. Politoed might just be my favorite water type pokemon. Though i wont be too upset if Politoed loses. Just wish there was an easier way to get Politoed. Also, Pluse vs Minun is my idea for the next FF. HECK YEAH! A very close battle, gotta be one of my favorites. Also, maybe Slowbro vs Slowking as well?
@@davidvelasco4423They are not branched evolutions. Nidoran male and nidoran female are two separate pokemon therefore they are not part of a branched evolution tree. Two separate evolution lines.
I prefer these rather than the mega evolution ones cause they’re usually one sided. Branched evolution and forms or even counter parts like magmortar and electivire are way cooler to watch
It's funny how at first it seemed like Politoed signed it's own death warrant with drizzle against swift swim Poliwraths, only for it to completely backfire against the Poliwraths in the first half of the battle
I prefer Poliwrath, I have used them as my water type on multiple playthroughs but I don't have any fond memories of Politoed since trade evolution is kind of a hassle for a casual playthrough and now there is a better rain setter in Pelipper.
Why did I never know this lol sorry I’m just now getting back in to Pokémon due to nostalgia and it’s soooooo trippy now sooo much has changed and I’m contemplating wether I should follow up on Pokémon or not it’s a lil Intimidating with all the new information on Pokémon
I hate my life.Everyone said poliwrath is bigger angrier poliwhirl and they said politoed much rarer and that is not reasonable to declare a winner(no blaming favorite poli but more reasonable reason to said those)
I think Poliwrath should get a mega. Poliwhirl is a Pokemon pseudo mascot, being the creators favourite mom, and Poliwrath is its original evo. Great vid, as always;)
Poliwrath was actually my first ever shiny. I was just SOS'ing for a politoed and I came across a shiny poliwag. I kinda despise shiny Poliwrath... that green is just disgusting
Politoed is cute and all, but I’ll forever choose Poliwrath over Politoed. They’re both cute in my eyes. Poliwhirl will always be the cutest frog pokémon!
Politoad and Poliwrath aren't in the current Metro Mania season, are they? That would have been a really cool team. Since the hidden abilities work so well together
Once again, I can’t decide. While Poliwrath makes more sense visually as an evolution of Poliwhirl, I find myself using Politoed more (It’s cuter, and Drizzle is just so good.) I use one names Suwako on one of my Touhou Project teams. And while Politied doesn’t look like it belongs in the Poliwag family, I like that it gives you the choice to evolve your Poliwhirl into either a physical or a special attacker.
Politoed is literally just a happy frog, it's automatically superior irregardless of which Pokémon is better from a pure statistical and ability standpoint.
Since they have matching abilities except hidden, where toad gives wrath an advantage, it seems like both teams should have had the shiny with water absorb and the regular with damp
As noted before, they are on very equal footing, but devastating together. Their stats benefit their types immensely, as having a pure water type as a special attacker helps in special water moves, and obviously same goes for fighting/physical. It all comes down to what you need more, physical or special. I still prefer shiny toad to the rest of the line, as it keeps the signature blue, and the difficulty of getting it in of itself makes it far more worth it as a collectible.
Yeah! I personally love politoed's shiny form the best out of the branched evolutions with their shiny. What can I say? Politoed is cute and I'm a sucker for cotton candy color schemes
Heya Liam! How's it going? I never thought of these two duking it out but I quite like the notion :D Appearance wise, I like Politoad more because it looks like it actually went through a change where as Poliwrath looks too close to Poliwhirl for my liking; barely any change. My money is on Politoad before I watch anything because I like it more, but now I'll watch the comparison of the stats and abilities [...watching...] Politoad has less weaknesses, which is a good sign for my first bet, but Poliwrath has more resistances, and I like Politoad having a higher Special Attack although Poliwrath attack vs Politoed defense is larger than Politoads special attack versus Poliwrath's special defence. Also, Drizzle with Politoad is going to give an advantage to Poliwrath since it'll have Swift Swim. So, I'm changing my bed. My money is now on Poliwrath. Let's watch the fight! [...watching...] Whelp, that's what I get for second guessing myself huh? Congrats Politoad! This was an amazing battle.
I prefer Poliwrath personally but Politoed is cute.
KernowShinigamiViper Lil'Dragon Same XD
KernowShinigamiViper Lil'Dragon yeah politoed is cuter
Yeah I like Poliwrath better but Politoed is so cute!
Same.
It’s so hard to pick😩😩😩
on the shiny forms they wanted to cosplay as each other
I like that
No
Except poliwrath shiny is an ugly green
That's adorable...

Lol a mad poliwhirl, poliwrath poli 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 word mad serious as fuck
For next Form Fight, can you do Vileplume VS Bellossom?
Also Poliwrath is much more badass IMO
Already done
@Meiji Cats oh..................... My bad...........
Misty: Poliwhirl, sometime you will evolve into poliwrath
*Poliwhirl steals ash's kings rock*
Poliwhirl: Nope! Its time to be a politoad
Frog time 🐸
Finally, a none mega form fight.
Lol
Next vid: *mEgA pOlIwRaTh vS mEgA pOlItOeD*
@@shuckle3775 those don’t exist.
@@woodrowwilson4126 one year later i am cringing at my own comments
I like Politoed more. Poliwrath, just looks like a bigger, angrier version of Poliwhirl.
Yeah but poliwhirl evolving to politoad makes no sense
*IT’S A TADPOLE YOU THAT GREW LEGS TO BECOME A FROG*
@@Nilx12 thanks for explaining it
@@audielamayaestrada3083 you do realise Tadpoles becoming frogs is one of the Most logical Evolutions in the entire game right?
@@audielamayaestrada3083 You can come back...
4:07 101% actually, infinite accuracy
Oooohhh, i've been looking forward to this form fight
The branched evolution of your favourite pokemon
I just realised: the shinies look like slightly tweaked versions of the other branch of the evolution!
Yeah, I noticed that too.
Poliwrath was my first holographic card as a kid, and a member of my first ever nuzlocke team, so I kind of adore it. But I think Politoed is one of the cutest Pokemon and I like its more reasonable weaknesses. These guys and the slowpoke line might be some of the hardest for me to choose favorites on. Either way this was a great battle!
Shiny politoad is a cute colour combo and kinda links to its pre-evolutions.
Politoed because it is FREAKING ADORABLE
If Silver from the Silverleaguenetworks saw this video he would be SO pissed to see Politoed win
I like politoed because is adorable in the isle of armor when it follows me
The like to dislike ratio is really good on your videos. Cool video liam.
Very surprised this wasn’t your first form fight video
Love the commentary lol. Poliwrath is my boi.
Poliwrath, i do like you alot, but Politoed is just so amazing! Its adorable, love its design, godly with Drizzle and Surf, ESPECIALLY with a teammate with Water Absorb like Lapras. Politoed might just be my favorite water type pokemon. Though i wont be too upset if Politoed loses. Just wish there was an easier way to get Politoed. Also, Pluse vs Minun is my idea for the next FF.
HECK YEAH! A very close battle, gotta be one of my favorites. Also, maybe Slowbro vs Slowking as well?
I’m surprised that Ace Trainer Liam didn’t do this matchup sooner!
Nidoking/Nidoqueen would be awesome! They're basically different forms 🤔
It’s a branched evolution
@@davidvelasco4423They are not branched evolutions. Nidoran male and nidoran female are two separate pokemon therefore they are not part of a branched evolution tree. Two separate evolution lines.
Only in the same sense as Volbeat and Illumise
I do like Politoad but then sense we have the lets go Pokemon games coming in next November i would be willing to have a Poliwrath on my team.
Liam: Well done Politoed what is your master plan?
Shiny Politoed: To kick ass amd drink tea. And I'm all out of tea
I prefer these rather than the mega evolution ones cause they’re usually one sided. Branched evolution and forms or even counter parts like magmortar and electivire are way cooler to watch
I like Politoad way more than poliwrath but both are amazing
It's funny how at first it seemed like Politoed signed it's own death warrant with drizzle against swift swim Poliwraths, only for it to completely backfire against the Poliwraths in the first half of the battle
Can i just say shiny politoed is a bundle of joy design wise
That animation at the end could've lasted a few seconds longer :D
I prefer Poliwrath, I have used them as my water type on multiple playthroughs but I don't have any fond memories of Politoed since trade evolution is kind of a hassle for a casual playthrough and now there is a better rain setter in Pelipper.
hmm, not quite. politoed can tank electric moves with his good spud stat. not a 4x weakness. people only have pelipper for hurricane.
DPMotion also,it good bait to wait for electric stack,then switch to swampert,and mega swift swim sweep
I think if politoed and poliwrath were together they would immediately destroy everyone with there hidden abilities
Man this series is so fun! Subbed!
You should do The Guardian Deities
I've asked him twice.
LubbeForLife Didn’t he already do them? Or am I thinking of another series on a different channel?
Leah Santone no he didn't
LubbeForLife or the 2 forms of cherrim.
If I was that pokemon, I would choose Politoed... You know.. I don't want to be a tadpole forever
Politoed redeemed itself after the loss it suffered in metromania
All this time, I thought Politoed was half Psychic type
Guarantee Liam was really waiting for this one. XD Though we all know the true winner in his heart... is Poliwhirl :P
Toy Bonnie well ut can be good with Eviolite i think, and it's cute!!!! 😍😍😍😍😉
I literally yawned after the shiny politoed used yawn XD
Well I guess the saying that yawns are contagious has some truth to it....
Why did I never know this lol sorry I’m just now getting back in to Pokémon due to nostalgia and it’s soooooo trippy now sooo much has changed and I’m contemplating wether I should follow up on Pokémon or not it’s a lil Intimidating with all the new information on Pokémon
It's terrible that Poliwrath doesn't learn more fighting moves though. Seriously an injustice that it doesn't learn Drain Punch.
I hate my life.Everyone said poliwrath is bigger angrier poliwhirl and they said politoed much rarer and that is not reasonable to declare a winner(no blaming favorite poli but more reasonable reason to said those)
Poliwrath may be worse but always superior in my heart.
Politoad is the bane of my existence, I eat sleep and breathe hate for this thing
I think Poliwrath should get a mega. Poliwhirl is a Pokemon pseudo mascot, being the creators favourite mom, and Poliwrath is its original evo. Great vid, as always;)
I prefer Poliwrath. I like the whole Poliwhirl on roids thing it's got going on.
Samuel Stannard me 2.
Poliwrath has 2 types so it has the biggest disadvantage
Politoad drizzle makes it a must have
Finally, you did my request
I forgot if you’ve done it already but Vileplume vs Bellossom should be next
To be fair... Shiny Poliwrath was looking a bit green :P
How do you get Metronome on these Pokémon?
I like politoad being able to use Psychic moves is great in a situation where it might face a Poliwrath
Can u do nidoking vs nidoqueen and I pick poliwrath beacuse I like fighting types
Personally, I like Poliwrath. But Politoed is good too. Also, I'm typing this right before going to my first day of school. Wish me luck! :)
Poliwrath was actually my first ever shiny. I was just SOS'ing for a politoed and I came across a shiny poliwag. I kinda despise shiny Poliwrath... that green is just disgusting
Yikes, but congrats on the shiny!
Why didn't you evolve it into toed?
Why didn’t you evolve it into toad when you had the chance
If you got a shiny poliwag and hate poliwrath you should've just evolved him into toad wtf
R.J. Penfold don’t say that lol
you have a beautiful flannel on, be proud of being a great fashion forward man.
I like how the blue politoad and the green polywrath where the lat one standing
Polytoad is one of my favorite pokemon
When looking at both, poliwrath looks more like poliwhirl
true but makes less sense than politoed
Politoed is cute and all, but I’ll forever choose Poliwrath over Politoed. They’re both cute in my eyes. Poliwhirl will always be the cutest frog pokémon!
C'mon Liam. You knew Politoad would win. He was an underdog kicking ass in the Metronome Tourney, remember?
Shiny politoed so cute 😂 with how well they did in mania I'm not surprised!
I feel stupid. I swear politoed was water/ psychic
Ace Trainer Liam, what are your plans for Eevee? You should do a Metromania just for Eevee’s evolutions
I don't like shirts all that much but OMG I love that red check shirt so much, I need it 😍
Politoed's eyes look so nice
Can you do the box legadaries?
I like Politoed, it’s funny watching it smile as it kills some random opponent
Do the lake trio please
Btw great video as usual
That pathetic STAB reversal pretty much sums up everything about Poliwrath.
One word: Weather Wars
Finally this fight
RIP Poliwrath
Politoad is cuter
if u were me
Politoad wins!
Dustox vs Beautifly?
Sharkpride808 or 2 forms of cherrim
Reuniclus vs gothitelle, it sais on the wiki they are counterpart pokemon, plus i love reuniclus.
i belive you win, poliwrath! do IT, just do IT!
I really like Politoed
May next form fight battle be between Slowbro and Slowking, one of them needs the King's Rock to evolve too
I prefer politoed as it is harder to get and it's an actual frog.
but it is way weaker
Politoed is my favourite it's cute and has a nice shiny, Form Fights are a lot of fun 👍
Finally I was waiting for this I am so happy that politoed won
This was incredible
You talking about Satoshi’s fav Pokémon.
Politoad and Poliwrath aren't in the current Metro Mania season, are they? That would have been a really cool team. Since the hidden abilities work so well together
I've always loved Politoed.

Politoed is literally just a happy frog, it's automatically superior irregardless of which Pokémon is better from a pure statistical and ability standpoint.
Next vídeo could be Gastrodon, i love both forms of Gastrodon
Could you do Buzzwole vs Pheromosa please!
Since they have matching abilities except hidden, where toad gives wrath an advantage, it seems like both teams should have had the shiny with water absorb and the regular with damp
AYYY POLITOED
What of for branched evolution you called it branch bash
Poliwhirl is one of my favs too!
I love politoed so much
As noted before, they are on very equal footing, but devastating together. Their stats benefit their types immensely, as having a pure water type as a special attacker helps in special water moves, and obviously same goes for fighting/physical. It all comes down to what you need more, physical or special. I still prefer shiny toad to the rest of the line, as it keeps the signature blue, and the difficulty of getting it in of itself makes it far more worth it as a collectible.
I LOVE POLIWRATH
I wish Poliwrath was Poliwag's only final form while Politoed was an entirely different Pokémon with different name!
I love politoed such a cutie with an amazing hidden abilities with very unique moves for a water type tied for my favorite water types
Yeah! I personally love politoed's shiny form the best out of the branched evolutions with their shiny. What can I say? Politoed is cute and I'm a sucker for cotton candy color schemes
Haven’t watched one of your vids in awhile. It where is the blue hair?!?

Good battle 😊
What about froslass vs glalie??
You should consider referencing Pokemon Stadium games by saying "And there goes the battle!" at the end of these awesome battles. ^_^
