@@stormpina6473They needed an animation for when it shows up in Metronome or is used with moves like Sketch or Mimic, if they're in the game or get added.
The problem with Zorark being in the challenge is, I looked it up, there are only 2 abilities with a Z. Zero to Hero and Zen Mode, both of which I don't think work on anything but their designated pokemon. Also there are only 4 moves. three of which are variants on "Zap" and Zen Headbutt.
Could have used simple staraptor with swords dance and sky atack, skull bash and shadow claw. Or speed boost, Spore, shear cold, substitute and someting else for coverage.
Missed opportunity for a choice specs/scarf flash-fire frosmoth with freeze dry, fiery dance, flip turn, and flash cannon Edit was 'cause I also forgot about the legendary moves not being in the game (I originally had fusion flare and fiery wrath instead of fiery dance and flip turn)
@@alexursu4403 If you're talking about it needing to start with the same letter or not, given the existence of things like Leftovers Dachsbun (10:03), I think it should be allowed :)
God no, Slam is a horrible move. At least go with Slash for the high crit rate. And replace Shadow Claw with Stone Axe, and give it Sharpness for the ability.
Big shame the Espathra wasn't chosen, because there's some insane things you could do with it. Electric Surge with Electro Drift, Esper Wing for STAB, and coverage moves like Energy Ball, Eruption, and Earth Power.
Idea: race to the bottom. You design each others teams from random 3 starters. You design their abilities, moves, items, evs, everything then give it over to the other and race to try to lose first. basically you have to try to make a pokemon thats impossible to lose with to make so your opponent cant do anything. this will also probably make you guys forget what your doing occasionally and you click super effective moves by mistake because thats what you normally do
Request! Before the battles on videos like this can you each go over the teams and the move sets and abilities, I would live to try to get an idea of the genre rap idea for each Pokémon going into the battle!
Focus Sash Simple Shell Smash Staraptor would have been insane. Speed Boost and Swords Dance would be pretty good as well. There's a ton of good physical attacks starting with S as well. Surging Strikes, Shadow Force, Shadow Claw, Sacred Sword, Seed Bomb, Stone Edge, Stone Axe, Spirit Break, Supercell Slam, Superpower, etc. You can even have Shadow Sneak if you're afraid of getting hit with a priority move, and with Tera Ghost you might even OHKO with it. (Sunsteel Strike & Sacred Fire are good as well, but those weren't in the game yet.)
This'd be a hilarious Arcanine set, I think. Arcanine (Hisuian) Adamant Nature (going the extra mile) Aguav Berry (going the extra second mile) As One (Chilling Neigh) Accelrock Anchor Shot Autotomize Axe Kick Autotomize for buffs, Anchor Shot to trap mons in, Axe Kick for damage and Accelrock for priority STAB. Kind of bonkers.

So funny that Cal just swept. Dylan with Simple Shell Smash made me laugh so hard. +4 in speed, attack and special attack just sounds unbeatable. God that is disgustingly hilarious.
I love how Luke was about to help his enemy by using Obstruct but luckily it wasn't in the game😂😂😂. Unfortunately it wasn't enough to stop it from going on a rampage of utter destruction.
I would do Swampert: Ability: Sap Sipper Moves: Surging Strikes, Swords Dance, Stealth Rocks, and Scorching Sands Item: Leftovers This was fun to think about. :)
Regidrago is actually insane for this type of video. It has an insane HP stat, and gets access to Rage Fist, Recover, Reflect, and even Revival Blessing. Not to mention it can get access to Regenerator. The thing is an absolute steamrolling tank that could probably solo some teams.
I always look forward to your videos as they make me laugh and smile all the time! Hope you keep making them and you have been an inspiration for many years! 😄
Here’s an idea for you, you and your opponent look at your starters, you then put all 6 of them in a wheel and then spin to see who you get for that round
Slaking: Simple: Shift Gear, Swords dance, Soft Boiled, Strength (or simple/shell smash and add sucker punch) That would have been horrifying if it was created
Ability- prankster (we do a bit of trolling) Moves -plasma fists (zeraora best Pokémon IMO) -psystrike (mewtwo also great) -parting shot (love a good mic drop moment) -phantom force (look away and I’m gone)
I have one thing to say: Simple shell smash stored power staraptor (well i guess its a physical attacker, but who cares it would do a huge amount of damage)
Pick your starters each person gets told there starters but there only allowed to pick one of each type if the type is already there then the opponent hast to chose for them
Gogoat is actually pretty good in this because you get Grassy Surge/Grassy Glide. Gogoat's special attack isn't that far behind its physical attack either so Giga Drain is a fine choice as well. Glacial Lance is, of course, a great coverage move, and it's kind of slow so Gyro Ball might work well if you don't want to deal with the accuracy issues that Gunk Shot and Gear Grind suffer from. I wrote this up before seeing what he actually did with it; hoping he at least thought of the Grassy Glide strat. Edit: ...Well he thought of Glacial Lance at least. And Gear Grind... I'm disappointed in Luke for missing out on the Grassy Glide spam.
Video idea "Squirdle" chooses your pokemon. If you correctly guess the pokemon, you get that pokemon an advantage, and if you guess it wrong, you get that pokemon with a disadvantage.
Guillotine reminds me of battling a wild Pinsir in Pokemon Sun, the battle was fresh and I was gonna wreck it with Solgaleo, only for it to use Guillotine and KO my poor lion.
Weird twist idea for this. You pick an "A" pokemon, you can only do moves and ability that start with "Z". Your ability and moves have to be from the opposite letter of the alphabet

As someone from Austria, I feel bad for the Person on the Phone. XD
It works if you put it in as GBL15 instead of just GBL
😊😊😊
@@Griffen.😊
I feel like we need a part 2 to this idea since there are more moves in the game that you can actually use
100% agree, we need a rematch with the exact same line up (and change the moves that still aren't in the game) and see what happens
@@wildsteagree
17:41 wait glaive rush turns into a sword when not used by Baxcalibur.
weird they thought about it lol maybe the wanted to place it as tutor move?
@@stormpina6473They needed an animation for when it shows up in Metronome or is used with moves like Sketch or Mimic, if they're in the game or get added.
@@stormpina6473i guess there's always a chance someone pull it from metronome or maybe moves like mimic/sketch~
That's actually really cool
same thing happens with gigaton hammer, it uses the wood hammer model
The problem with Zorark being in the challenge is, I looked it up, there are only 2 abilities with a Z. Zero to Hero and Zen Mode, both of which I don't think work on anything but their designated pokemon. Also there are only 4 moves. three of which are variants on "Zap" and Zen Headbutt.
And one of those "Zap" moves isn't even usuable in the game to begin with.
@@mystikx2205and one's 50% accurate lol.
Could have used simple staraptor with swords dance and sky atack, skull bash and shadow claw. Or speed boost, Spore, shear cold, substitute and someting else for coverage.
I literally just thought of power herb sky attack, would have done work.
Sharpness with Sacred Sword, Stone Axe, Slash, and Swords Dance.
Would have gone with sturdy: Self destruct, spore, stealth rock, spikes, faster smeargle honestly
@@mariobros2169 does sturdy and self destruct work together?
@@Luis-gz3ooyes
Missed opportunity for a choice specs/scarf flash-fire frosmoth with freeze dry, fiery dance, flip turn, and flash cannon
Edit was 'cause I also forgot about the legendary moves not being in the game (I originally had fusion flare and fiery wrath instead of fiery dance and flip turn)
Are you sure you can Choice a Frosmoth in this format ?
@@alexursu4403 If you're talking about it needing to start with the same letter or not, given the existence of things like Leftovers Dachsbun (10:03), I think it should be allowed :)
Y’all should should check to make sure your moves are in the game, before you fight from now on.
Seriously
Anytime when I saw Gogoat I was thinking of my favorite chant “Guillotine!! GUILLOTINE!!!”
It goes it goes it goes GUILLOTINE!!!
This suffered from "ooh Legendary move" syndrome.
Also from pre-DLC2 lack of older 'mons syndrome
and after that it went ohhh Legend isn't in the game syndrome
@@lucygirl1111 i dont understand why they didn't just look up what moves were in the game lol
@@BlueSodaPop_ cause they get excited and the moveset and want to see the look on the other's face at how broken it is
If this video was made for a drinking game, where you take a shot every time an illegal moved was mistakenly given to a mon, everybody would be dead!
Well isnt that the point of the video?? Mewtwo cant get moxie yet it was the example of the vid
That's the entire point though. It'll be almost impossible if you can only use moves from their moveset
Guys the op meant moves that weren't in the game at the time of recording
Drinking to every illegal move used huh? Guess I'll be calling off work due to "feeling unwell"
Staraptor
1. Sacred sword
2. Swords stance
3. Shadow claw
4. Slam (stab)
Ability: storm drain
God no, Slam is a horrible move. At least go with Slash for the high crit rate. And replace Shadow Claw with Stone Axe, and give it Sharpness for the ability.
I was thinking Simple + Swords Dance.
Go simple shell smash stored power, i know its special atk is kinda garbage but who cares, a 260 power move at +4 would still hit hard
@@mystikx2205 I forgot about slash
Excadrill!
Extreme Speed
Earthquake
Explosion
with Earth eater as the ability
That phone call was the most out of pocket sponsor bit I have ever seen 😭
Big shame the Espathra wasn't chosen, because there's some insane things you could do with it. Electric Surge with Electro Drift, Esper Wing for STAB, and coverage moves like Energy Ball, Eruption, and Earth Power.
Cacturne with Contrary- Moveset Close Combat, Ceaseless Edge, crabhammer, and Crunch
Idea: race to the bottom. You design each others teams from random 3 starters. You design their abilities, moves, items, evs, everything then give it over to the other and race to try to lose first. basically you have to try to make a pokemon thats impossible to lose with to make so your opponent cant do anything. this will also probably make you guys forget what your doing occasionally and you click super effective moves by mistake because thats what you normally do
This sounds absolutely amazing.
The strat would be to get an i mon and give it imposter to steal Dylan’s ideas
Or an s mon with stone axe sticky web sturdy spikes and spore
Omg this phonecall killed me. "Love you holzkern mmmwah!~" and then you just hear this confused "..was?" (What?) It caught me off guard xD i love this
Fairy Terra Tinkaton with Terrablast
I can’t get over how we keep mispronouncing Dachsbun. It’s not “dash-bun.” Its “docks-bun” like the dog breed “dachshund”
I dont usually watch the battles, but this one was well worth watching. 😂
you dont watch the battles??? whats the point then?
Imagine dylan went trickroom on tickaton b4 getting calyrex out
0:18 Couldn't think of any other moves starting with M huh?!😂
Mach Punch, Muddy Water, Magnitude (probably not in the game), Magma Storm, Magnet Bomb...
@@primrose6794Yeah, Magnitude isn't in the game. Same for Magnet Bomb.
@@mystikx2205 My point is there's a TON of M letter moves.

(Sunsteel Strike & Sacred Fire are good as well, but those weren't in the game yet.)
Focus sash simple shell smash stored power would destroy
Simple, Shell Smash, White Herb, Stored Power. That's a free *+4* in three stats.
I would've done that... with Shadow Ball.
It is so much fun when you two get together! 🤣😂
Always love when Luke and Dylan do stuff together, always great chemistry
This'd be a hilarious Arcanine set, I think.
Arcanine (Hisuian)
Adamant Nature (going the extra mile)
Aguav Berry (going the extra second mile)
As One (Chilling Neigh)
Accelrock
Anchor Shot
Autotomize
Axe Kick
Autotomize for buffs, Anchor Shot to trap mons in, Axe Kick for damage and Accelrock for priority STAB. Kind of bonkers.
For Dylan's Staraptor I would have the moves Shell Smash, Sheer Cold, Sky Attack and Sacred Sword but that is just me.

The watches looked really cool
Maybe supreme overlord staraptor with shadow sneak, sucker punch, superpower and sky attack
Swampert with sap sipper, surging strikes, stomping tantrum, soft boiled and swords dance
Watchog
Ability: Wonder Guard
Moves: Work Up, Wild Charge, Waterfall, Wood Hammer
Guess y'all need to do this again with the moves now available. haha
5:05 My mind immediately went to pursuit here, but I hadn't realized that they removed it in the newer games.
Ability dontlis shelled
Moves
Dark Pulse
Dark Void
Dazzling Gleam
Defend Order
Squrtile shell smash simple or wooper wonder guard then teralized it to fairy
This move can't be used. It's recommended that this move is forgotten. Once forgotten, this move can't be remembered.
I love how Luke was about to help his enemy by using Obstruct but luckily it wasn't in the game😂😂😂.
Unfortunately it wasn't enough to stop it from going on a rampage of utter destruction.
I would do Swampert:
Ability: Sap Sipper
Moves: Surging Strikes, Swords Dance, Stealth Rocks, and Scorching Sands
Item: Leftovers
This was fun to think about. :)
First thing that comes to mind for good 'S' combos is Serene Grace sacred fire.
9:50 I wasn’t expecting this. I wonder this was the first time who likes pink Gastrodon
Regidrago is actually insane for this type of video. It has an insane HP stat, and gets access to Rage Fist, Recover, Reflect, and even Revival Blessing. Not to mention it can get access to Regenerator. The thing is an absolute steamrolling tank that could probably solo some teams.
Dark Move beginning with P...
I immediately thought of Payback.
I'd have supreme overlord, scald, sticky webs, surging strikes, shed tail
Wish there was a preview of sets but overall always a fun idea and video
SPOILER SHIELD 🛡️!
Stop
Mission failed, we'll get em next time
When is the spoiler
I always look forward to your videos as they make me laugh and smile all the time! Hope you keep making them and you have been an inspiration for many years! 😄
Serene grace scald
Simple swords dance
Here’s an idea for you, you and your opponent look at your starters, you then put all 6 of them in a wheel and then spin to see who you get for that round
Slaking: Simple: Shift Gear, Swords dance, Soft Boiled, Strength (or simple/shell smash and add sucker punch)
That would have been horrifying if it was created
Hear me out, Stab Clause... exactly the same rules but if the mon doesn't have any stab moves with it's letter you get one stab move.
nah, its better content if they suffer lol
Try this idea again since the DLC is out and the moves are available
Ability- prankster (we do a bit of trolling)
Moves
-plasma fists (zeraora best Pokémon IMO)
-psystrike (mewtwo also great)
-parting shot (love a good mic drop moment)
-phantom force (look away and I’m gone)
Idk why I always find myself rooting for the guest on your channel. Maybe cuz you give evil genius host vibes and the guest is an underdog in my pov?
You gotta do a video where you only use baby Pokémon. Essentially just Little Cup. It could be really cool with random abilities.
You should also HAVE to use an item of the same letter
I have one thing to say: Simple shell smash stored power staraptor (well i guess its a physical attacker, but who cares it would do a huge amount of damage)
Pick your starters each person gets told there starters but there only allowed to pick one of each type if the type is already there then the opponent hast to chose for them
I always say this but these ideas are so amazing ad make for the best content. Love you guys
We need a Hoodcal Vs Luke
Pokedex numbers or Pokémon cries video.
That would be a battle of knowledge
I am Austrian myself and was very happy you have an Austrian sponsor also that "was" on the phone call was so real😂😂
1:36 haytch he says.
Lukes team looking like a champion team
Interesting challenge and Indigo Disk DLC be laughing right now😅
soon as i heard p for politoed i thought primordial sea for ability, perish song for a move and precipice blades
Would love to see this concept but yiu have to choose ability before you know the pokemon 😊
I’m sitting here waiting for the Sharpness Stone Axe Staraptor, the Ceaseless Edge Calyrex, and the Toxic Debris Tinkaton with Tidy Up.
this is a really fun concept! though you may need to make up a list of usable moves for this game lol
Pursuit has left the chat as a dark move
Pursuit's unusable in ScVi.
Missed opportunity for Primordial Sea Politoed.
My name is Lynn, so Libero with Land's wrath, last respects leaf blade and liquidation.

Luke: I can’t think of any T abilities
Me: what about truant?
Toxic debris(the one Glimmora has)
Toxic Chain
I saw G and i was like: Guts+Guillotine go brrr
Thankfully they are friends abd didnt do that hahahah
Should do this idea but using the last letter of their names too, would be harder to guess what mom you’re getting
I'm picking Entei with the Earth Eater ability and Earthquake, Extreme Speed, Eruption, and Energy Ball as the moveset.
Purifying salt is the first thing I thought of...I'm not tramatized at all
Really enjoying this twist
Guillotine reminds me of battling a wild Pinsir in Pokemon Sun, the battle was fresh and I was gonna wreck it with Solgaleo, only for it to use Guillotine and KO my poor lion.
Do this concept again pls ❤
You could've tried primordial sea, for that perfect politoad
Sure, it’s a calming notion.
For the first one i immediately first went to
Simple and Swords Dance :)
Also S has Serene Grace, Regenerator, Scrappy, Sheer Force and many other OP abilities :)
Wonder guard terastallize electric type wyrdeer with willow wisp, work up, wish and wild charge while holding air balloon. I wanted to see it happen 🤣
Protean politoad might be dangerous 😂
Turned Politoad into Wish Greninja
Was literally mid commute binging Then We Battle vids and wishing for a new one 😂 thanks Luke
Supersweet Syrup + Sheer Cold
that guillotine was insane
"you can't use this move" the video xD
Well, I'm taking Drought as my ability with Dragon Dance, Drain Punch, Dire Claw and Diamond Storm 😎
Smooth transition into the sponsor
I love the First Letter format so much, but I am always a little bummed cause it means my boy Quagsire gets no love.
This was before DLC?!
Damn! How long you been holding onto this video?!
Weird twist idea for this. You pick an "A" pokemon, you can only do moves and ability that start with "Z". Your ability and moves have to be from the opposite letter of the alphabet
Judging by the fact they couldn’t use “fusion bolt,” this was recorded before the Indigo Disk DLC came out.
11:55 bottom left the Editor Said Something about that
A fusion video where the pokemon gets 2 abilities.
