@@doot-doot-JJMnot exactly, a loser’s bracket would start with all the losers from round 1 competing, then the winners of those matches moving on to face the losers from round 2, then rinse repeat until you have 1 that won all of their matches, and 1 that only lost 1 match, and they face off in a final match to determine the actual winner.

From this one that I want to move on include Clobbopus, Flaaffy, Hoothoot, Shedinja, Scyther, and of course my goat Gallade. He was so close, glad Galarian Darmanitan avenged him.
Alpharad is my comfort streamer, particularly his pokemon content. I watch these before bed and it helps me sleep so good This series is low stakes but entertaining so i fall asleep so easy
My boy groudon had his win stolen from his last week, at least I feel safe knowing there is no way he could lose to an ice type that changes it's ability again.
This reminds me so much of the smash bros CPU tournaments and I love it. Those bring back so many good memories. Would be great to see someone else come in to co commentate, cause then you don’t need to talk as much and you can bounce thoughts off each other
2:05:00 twitch prime vs YT sub 2:48:30 that shelter paid off 3:07:15 A Christmas miracle 3:43:11 Burning Bulwark proc 4:50:00 OMG 5:03:00 let’s go my favorite ice cream cone 5:30:00 noooo
hoot hoot got the craziest moves, magma storm for consistent 1/8th of health damage, psychic noise which prevents healing so ingrain wont work, scald into burn, into infernal parade which is double damage because its burned

If I had a nickel for every time a member of my Gen 8 doubles team (mono ice) won finals, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. If we see Alolan Ninetales sweep the next bracket, just know that I called it.
It would be cool to give every pokemon a berry so that item affecting moves would work. Could also maybe shuffle between lum, leppa, and sitrus to give some variety
11:01 GET REKT GARCHOMP 11:41 throw of the sentry... 21:45 this would happen in like, the anime lol. if... if this was at all something that would air in the anime it's sad to see grafaiai vs quaquaval because they were both on my scarvio team... btw it's century not sentry, gotcha i absolutely can see how drizzile would be a favourite. water balloon gimmick is unique and cool, their colours are quirky, i quite like them myself. and speaking of that "two pokemon i don't think of a lot" comment about them and their oponent, it's funny because along with me rather liking drizzile, i got TWO DIFFERENT natural shiny alolan grimers (one in gen 7 when that was fairly new although i don't remember WHICH gen 7, one was in scarvio's second DLC) so that's also a stand-out to me hoothoot, the champion of DoT tag yourself i'm 2:48:32 i knew that Shelter was a good investment AHAHAHHAA ETERNAMAX IS GONE LOL 3:45:07 oomfie gets this bag I like'd Bergmite's gusto, so I let them win after I sent the message.

It's time to reveal the loser's curse of this bracket. For those of you who don't know, the loser's curse causes you to lose, then the loser's curse gets passed on to the winner. The Loser's Curse holder of this tournament is Frogadier, who lost to Rotom Heat, who lost to Slither Wing, who lost to Feraligator, who lost to Darmanitan, who lost to Mega Swampert, who lost to Lugia, who lost to Genesect, who lost to Darmanitan-Galar. Yet another water type, huh?
wait this is a part 2? there's another 6 hour stream of this? Jacob really doing it in the name of science. without seeing anything depending on its seeding either shedinja can do all the way or is the easiest win for some abilities ever
After this is done, can you take every Pokémon that lost round 1, and start a tournament where the loser moves on to find the worst Pokémon ever?
Would that just be loser's bracket? I think he declined that in the video. Unfortunately, I don't know much about bracket stuff
@ isn’t loser’s bracket for double elimination tournaments? this is different
@@doot-doot-JJM in a loser's bracket, the winner still advances. They're suggesting the loser to advance to next round. it's different
He said in the first few minutes that he wouldn't do that.
@@doot-doot-JJMnot exactly, a loser’s bracket would start with all the losers from round 1 competing, then the winners of those matches moving on to face the losers from round 2, then rinse repeat until you have 1 that won all of their matches, and 1 that only lost 1 match, and they face off in a final match to determine the actual winner.

I like how every Squawkabilly wins round 1 and goes down round 2 like some kind of C-tier anime villain.
Squawkabilly blue?

Petition to change Nidirino vs Zigzagoon caption to "epic rat battle of history."

fr, its like cpucs but more hype

Might be neat if the winners of the each initial tournament got to be shiny in the finals.
I almost lost my shit when I saw chat thinking a Overheat doesn't thaw.
"Drinks from lead" using the Flint avatar is insane

1:15:00 this is the most uncomfortable match in the tournament.
It would be cool to give every pokemon a berry so that item affecting moves would work. Could also maybe shuffle between lum, leppa, and sitrus to give some variety
11:01 GET REKT GARCHOMP
11:41 throw of the sentry...
21:45 this would happen in like, the anime lol. if... if this was at all something that would air in the anime
it's sad to see grafaiai vs quaquaval because they were both on my scarvio team... btw it's century not sentry, gotcha
i absolutely can see how drizzile would be a favourite. water balloon gimmick is unique and cool, their colours are quirky, i quite like them myself. and speaking of that "two pokemon i don't think of a lot" comment about them and their oponent, it's funny because along with me rather liking drizzile, i got TWO DIFFERENT natural shiny alolan grimers (one in gen 7 when that was fairly new although i don't remember WHICH gen 7, one was in scarvio's second DLC) so that's also a stand-out to me

Yet another water type, huh?
blitzle v ho oh turn 1 is hilarious. they both roll the same move but.
Including the 3rd place match my win/lose ratio is 121:135
To be fair I just guessed the guys I wanted to win but still frustrating to lose so many.

I hope greninja and ash greninja are counted as two separate pokemon
Tyrouge is the better fumbler ever
Flaafy deserves a spot
When will the next video be coming up
