The temptation to work Eruption in is real, since Salazzle is fast. But it's not fast enough to guarantee it gets off a full power eruption without a choice scarf that it doesn't have the necessary C to equip. Could go HARD with Adaptability and Tailwind or Stickywebs support. Might even be worth the fire terra if you got it set up, but it is gimmicky
@@chuckokler7021 what set would you have given Persian? {Pure Power} of course, but do you go for Swords Dance/Shift Gear, or do you save your S for Sucker Punch? Do you take E Speed? *EDIT:* hmmm, Acrobatics hits hard and means you don't have to worry about an item. Could be a good take *EDIT 2:* without an F-sash Persian is so frail. Night Slash pairs really well with Shift Gear. But getting that Shift Gear off is easier said than done... *EDIT 3:* What if Pure Power is a trap!? {Adaptability} Shift Gear/Swords Dance/Sucker Punch Population Bomb, Night Slash, Extreme Speed (Holding a Razor Fang) Oh wait, it's not like Alolan Raticate that kept Normal as part of its typing 😅 Population Bomb + Razor Fang and high speed is really good, but Persian doesn't really have the stats to back it up without STAB
Okay Shady’s slip up with Miraidon was HILARIOUS!😂 Took him a minute to register what he said. Honestly I think that’s what makes the dirty jokes the funniest, when you don’t mean to make a dirty joke but you screw up on what you’re trying to say.😂
Video idea. "Guess the shiny starter but we're colorblind". So 1 or more Pokémon are shiny, but the screen has to be grey scaled. If you can guess the shiny correctly, you can get any ability or an illegal move. If you guess incorrectly, the opponent chooses your Pokémon. You have to send a screenshot to each other of the randomized starters but they have to be grey scaled. I thought of this idea because of Tobin, who is colorblind. I don't know if this is possible, but it would be pretty cool for a video
Zekrom has such an underrated possibility for a name Z- Zen Headbutt E- Electric Surge (Ability) K- Knock Off R- Rising Voltage O- Outrage M- Magnet (Item)
With how many "Then We Fight" videos you all do, you should all do a "Top Moments" recap at the end of the year on your channels. There's definitely plenty of content to choose from.
4:12 Ah yes, because Polteageist has two S in it, so it can have both Speed Boost and Spacial Rend/s Edit: 8:41 Ah, yes, Miraidon, my favorite pokemon with P in its name for Pure Power/s Edit again: 31:01 ah.
Top ten "Then we Fight" videos at the end of the year is such an excellent idea. Better yet, have a whole Pokétuber awards show similar to the Streamer awards, and let the community nominate and vote on top performances in certain categories. Funniest moment, most clutch moment, most unique strategy, et cetera. I think it would be really cool and fun and bring the community together, showcasing highlights of everyone's year. Make it an annual thing.
I'm surprised it took this long for someone to slip and say "Hard-on Engine". Idea: Reverse letters - pokemon can only use their normal moves and abilities, but they *can't* use any moves/abilities/items with the letters in their names.
I love this Miraipon, best pokemon of the year. Also amazed to hear Sayu's theme play during the video as its my all time hyperfixation work out song xD
@@Solafar_VB He misspelled Persian too, said it was six letters, which means he doesn't have the N in the word anymore, since the N makes it 7 letters.
An anual “then we fight” awards is literally the best idea ever!!! A look back at the best moments from then we fights amongst the poketubers Best sweep Best tera moment Best guessing moment Worst cheat And of course just best moment per poketuber or a highlight reel of each persons videos in 2024. I’d pay a premium ticket price to see that! 🔥
Suggestion: pick Pokemon using this format, but you don't see the Pokemon, but you learn how many letters the Pokemon has. Could have some fun potential
in case anyone was wondering magnetic flux is a move, however all it does is boost the Def and spDef of allies with the plus or minus abilities by one stage
Oh dang Luke picked up a song from the game No Straight Roads for the battle, the song is called Vs. Sayu or Sayu Boss Fight in case anyone wanted to know
Bro hearing VS Sayu for the background music throughout the battle was the best extra to this video I loved No Straight Roads and was surprised anyone would ever use the music from that game so tyvm for a great vid❤❤
An additional take you could make on this is having a "leader" pokemon that determines what you can use in your party as well, but of course having a lot more rounds of choices to be able to fill in those slots
I LOVE when you post and always have so many laughs when I watch them! I really looked up to the people you collab with like Shady P! Hope you guys keep creating more! 😄
Speaking of Miraipon, it'd probably be more boring, but it'd be interesting to see an opposite to this video, a video where you can't use any moves, items, or abilities that start with any letters in the Pokemon's name. Maybe impose a limit of only using a move/ability once or something? In any case, Luke + Shady videos are always great, and despite Miraipon stealing P from Polteageiss and it having to pick up another S to compensate on Shady's side, still loved this video! Thanks Luke, Shady, and iconiqlast!
If you want ideas for funny ways to do "misspelled pokemon names", here's min: 1. Put their names through an auto-correct and use whatever word(s) it gives you. 2. Run their names through google translate a few times and use the result. Either of these could even be fun ways to let your opponent choose their starter by only knowing the messed up name, though if you're only auto-correcting the names that's probably a bit too easy to guess.
Move suggestions with this type of challenge with Greninja: G - Gunk Shot or Grass Knot (common coverage for it) R - Rock Slide or Rock Tomb (lesser common coverage) E - Earth Power (special Electric coverage) N (x2) - Night Slash and/or Nasty Plot (common physical stab and special attack enhancer) I - Ice Beam (common coverage) J - Jet Punch (priority stab when you don’t have Water Shuriken) A - Aeroblast or Aqua Cutter or Aqua Jet (special Flying coverage, crit stab, and priority stab) For abilities, if you wanted, you can make the G Grim Neigh, I Intrepid Sword or Intimidate, or the A Adaptability
I have a fun idea for a challenge. Could y’all please catch eight Pokemon of your choice that all have random abilities. Both of you also get to pick out the move sets after catching the Pokemon. Once you both acquire teams, read off each of your team members’ Pokedex entries. If the one being read to correctly identifies a Pokemon entry, he gets the option to force a trade without knowing the moveset of the identified Pokemon. The player who gets the identity correct is also able to pick out a custom ability for the traded Pokemon. Sabotaging some of your own team members is legal. Let’s say that the two leftover Pokemon with easy Pokédex entries are physical attackers like Machamp. You can rigg the entire moveset to be special or support moves. The Pokemon can’t be pseudo legends, legends, paradox, ultra beast, mythical or, starters to make it a bit more challenging.
Salazzle has enough letters that it could be usable still. Sludge Wave Astral Barrage Lava Plume Aeroblast z z Life Orb Earth Eater Feel free to switch up the coverage moves; you can also go with Armor Cannon for the fire STAB if you want, hell, you could go Eruption for the fire STAB and Levitate for the ability (I love that the 4x Ground-weak Pokémon has access to *both* abilities that would grant it a Ground immunity)
Video idea: Random starters, you go left to right and tell the opponent what their first pokemon is. They can either take it, or discard it to hear the next choice. Any pokemon that is not revealed, you have the option to take yourself, discarding your own next turn.

Piraidon is the most mowerful Pokemon of all time.
Miraipon*?
When will we get New York Mankeys with Miraipon and Spolteageist!? (You did in fact cheat twice, not a great example dad)
Ayo Shady no Diddy at 8:18 🤣
have your child spell the Pokémon's name and use those letters for the same concept
What y’all are forgetting is that Miraipon and Piraidon are both Miraidon’s third cousins twice removed. No big deal. Just fam as Dylan would say!
Guy Miraidon has pure power because shady uses his Is original name iron Serpent
But he's using Drain Punch too. Aint no D in Iron Serpent. So either way he's cheating.
Edit: Also Air balloon too
@@datelessgamer5190 he's using the old name for the ability and current name for attacks
Chilling neigh Palkia🙄
@@wreckitfred7845 The ability he used is As One, which contains chilling neigh
@@pablofdzz8986 forgot about As One🥴
Actually it’s spelled (P)miraidon the P is just silent
Miraipon
That cant be true
You never knew about the invisible p
It's the broken clause. Any modified Pokémon cannot be less broken than the regular version.
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
The pure power Piraidon is crazy
Its Iron Serpent obviously
A lot of commenters jumped the gun before learning the lore of Miraipon.
Might as well call it a Tampon
Yeah I almost commented but figured it was wrong or a mistake 😂
Salazzle: (equipped with Life Orb or Leftovers or Lum Berry)
*{Adaptability}* Lava Plume, Sludge Bomb/Wave, Aeroblast, Esper Wing/Earth Power
*{Earth Eater}* Armor Canon, Sludge Bomb/Wave, Aeroblast, Luster Purge
*{Levitate}* Armor Canon, Sludge Bomb/Wave, Aeroblast, Esper Wing/Earthpower
There was a lot of potential, wasted by Persian…

I thought of this idea because of Tobin, who is colorblind. I don't know if this is possible, but it would be pretty cool for a video
I second this, it would be a pain to go through all the filtering but you can adjust it each round as well to each specific type of color blindness!!
some pokemon's shiny are very easy to notice but some of them are just pain to find out even without the filter
You could do it, you would just had to add a filter in OBS and only look at the OBS preview rather than the game directly
Zekrom has such an underrated possibility for a name
Z- Zen Headbutt
E- Electric Surge (Ability)
K- Knock Off
R- Rising Voltage
O- Outrage
M- Magnet (Item)
that when one of you accidentally cheats, and you both laugh, THAT is a sign of good character and friendship.
Quiver Dancing, Simple Qwuilfish could've popped off
31:07 The look you get when you realize that there is, in fact no silent P in Miraidon😂 I SwEAr THaT tHE P wAs UpsIDe DowN😂
With how many "Then We Fight" videos you all do, you should all do a "Top Moments" recap at the end of the year on your channels. There's definitely plenty of content to choose from.
When Shady tells Vinny "I hope you get an irl stroke" and then trails off
I'd love to see a compilation of all the times they cheated and their funniest throws. Way too many to count and it's hilarious for the content
4:13 there’s only one S in the name but used it for both spacial rend and speed boost. Oooooo cheaterrrrr
And miridon with pure power
Don’t forget Luke thinking Venusaur has two As so he gets Apple Acid and Aguav Berry
Miripon is too GOATED!!!😂
Maybe it's Miraidonphanpyroar?
4:12 Ah yes, because Polteageist has two S in it, so it can have both Speed Boost and Spacial Rend/s
Edit:
8:41 Ah, yes, Miraidon, my favorite pokemon with P in its name for Pure Power/s
Edit again: 31:01 ah.
Finally, someone else noticed the double S on Shady's Polteageist
I noticed it too but I thought it was funny, especially with Miraipon
I think he got it mixed up with Sinistea hence the 2 S’s
@@sebarsht12
It's fine, Luke doubled up on A in Venusaur.
@@GOATexp Then he couldn't have protect while using "Sinistea"
Already looking forward to Patterz reacting to this
Really loved Shady’s Piraidon
When I heard Miraipon, it made me imagine a Miraidon Ogerpon fusion which I think that would actually be pretty cute
The shock on Luke’s face when he saw Stamina on Hisuian Goodra got me laughing hard 🤣

31:15 "Where did I get the P from?" - in the running for best out-of-context quote of 2024
26:10 I love the split second of Shady just absolutely mogging us

Idea: Reverse letters - pokemon can only use their normal moves and abilities, but they *can't* use any moves/abilities/items with the letters in their names.
15:05 playing VS Sayu is incredible, I had to have a mini jam session ngl

Okay Patterz definitely needs to react to this video *SIMPLY* for the comedy in it! Seriously this was HILARIOUS!😂
8:43 Shady can’t have Pure Power on Miraidon 😂
I havent watched further yet, but Id imagine that was a editing error for a future primape or something
Edit: I was wrong
@@IronwolfXVI Yes I thought maybe editing error too
he can if he misspells the name hard enough :D
@@Solafar_VB Yes, but that’s not the points for the game so….
@@Solafar_VB He misspelled Persian too, said it was six letters, which means he doesn't have the N in the word anymore, since the N makes it 7 letters.
This had me laughing so hard I was crying.😂
12:33 little did Shady know, Greninja did not not make it on the thumbnail
NSR getting the love it deserves at 15:35, Sayu would be proud
Man, the editing and both these guys are just so funny in this video. I was laughing the whole video😂😂
Everyone asking about pure power not watching till the end 😅
15:30 Do i hear an NSR track? Holy based, Sayu is my favourite of them!
No seriously I thought I was going crazy for a second
“Hard on engine” -Shady Penguin (2024)

@@matthewthompson4611 fair enough
34:50 OH MY GOD! Yes, please do that
i have to appreciate the NSR soundtrack. Such an underrated game, and such a banging ost.
LOVING the No Straight Roads Sayu theme in the background!!!
I am SO glad Luke questioned the Pure Power Miraidon 😂 31:20
I was here like HUH 🤔🧐 lmaooooooo
An anual “then we fight” awards is literally the best idea ever!!! A look back at the best moments from then we fights amongst the poketubers
Best sweep
Best tera moment
Best guessing moment
Worst cheat

Suggestion: pick Pokemon using this format, but you don't see the Pokemon, but you learn how many letters the Pokemon has. Could have some fun potential
6:02 muk with no ability, no item, minimize, knock off, u-turn is very broken.
That new animation my dude?!! Cleeean af 🔥
Yugioh players cannot read and Pokémon players cannot spell 😂

I can read maybe need +11 glasses but it is possible
@@Kaiba2393 at least you're honest 🤣
in case anyone was wondering magnetic flux is a move, however all it does is boost the Def and spDef of allies with the plus or minus abilities by one stage

Wow wasn't expecting to hear Sayu's theme from NSR!
I love these ones the most because of the sheer amount of possibilities you guys could come up with
Oh dang Luke picked up a song from the game No Straight Roads for the battle, the song is called Vs. Sayu or Sayu Boss Fight in case anyone wanted to know
I really like this idea, I hope you do it several times! I like how it shifts the criteria for a good pokemon.
Shady. That spacial rend was illegal. Polteageist only has one S. 22:00
Bro hearing VS Sayu for the background music throughout the battle was the best extra to this video I loved No Straight Roads and was surprised anyone would ever use the music from that game so tyvm for a great vid❤❤
31:05 Shady's masterful use of the acting community's 'smelled the fart' technique
The look on shady's face when you got the Roaring Moon and Palkia was priceless. 😂😂😂
You guys should all do a "My best "The We Fight" teams of 2024" and review your most op teams or unique strats
Ahhhh Sayu's theme song is sooooooo good and really fits as a Pokemon battle theme
I just got really happy when I heard ... Thanks, editor ❤
I gotta admit, seeing you guys trying to build the team for each other was entertaining and kinda endearing to see
An additional take you could make on this is having a "leader" pokemon that determines what you can use in your party as well, but of course having a lot more rounds of choices to be able to fill in those slots
I LOVE when you post and always have so many laughs when I watch them! I really looked up to the people you collab with like Shady P! Hope you guys keep creating more! 😄
The NSR song pick, AMAZING GAME
shout out to the editors being on point this episode! they are always great!
The intro of…THEN. WE. FIGHT! Was epic
i recall the first time this was done, been waiting FOREVER for another of this one!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤ also 8:19 KILLED ME!!!!!!!!!!!
video idea choose your pokemon only knowing ONE letter
4:44 my immediate thought- Ingrain!
Second thought- why'd I even think of that? lmao
Shadys face on Jumping Regilkei had me rolling on the ground haha
Shady is a man of honor and Luke's just like "no that's content dw about it"
What a good song for the 1st battle
Video idea:
You pick Pokémon with normal sets but the letters in their names can’t be in their set
6:02 it’s not like U-Turn is one of the most useful moves 😶
Speaking of Miraipon, it'd probably be more boring, but it'd be interesting to see an opposite to this video, a video where you can't use any moves, items, or abilities that start with any letters in the Pokemon's name. Maybe impose a limit of only using a move/ability once or something?
In any case, Luke + Shady videos are always great, and despite Miraipon stealing P from Polteageiss and it having to pick up another S to compensate on Shady's side, still loved this video! Thanks Luke, Shady, and iconiqlast!
Ive never squeezed while on the toilet 😂😂😂 but seriously love the videos keep up the great and amazing work got a viewer for life
Luke and shady is just pure comedy 😂
God I love the songs you use in these, like the Jet set radio music, and vs sayu in this episode
Ok the animation on the “Then We Fight!” Was outstanding!
You could have also used simple tail glow for polteigeist would have been even crasier. Great vid to by the way.
If you want ideas for funny ways to do "misspelled pokemon names", here's min:

Yo Luke, what’s your favourite type of tea? And does the jam or cream go on top in a scone?

I was not ready for the No Straight Roads soundtrack! I didn’t know people even knew that game existed haha
New idea for you guys. Choose the starter you want from the 3 but choose one of remaining 2 to make the set from their ability and moves.
Everyone's talking about Miradonp, but I'm just popping off at the No Straight Roads soundtrack used during the fight
