hard agree, loving the arguments being made, also absolutely comical that this led to "i legitimately think landorus is worse than something else on the screen" and it was debatably true
@@IngasPingas14 I mean it's kind of fun, the only two things to consider when all pokemon can have any ability, pretty much, is their movepool and their stats (typing is also technically important, but that both feeds into the other two categories and has been proven to being irrelevant if the other attributes are good enough, like how Volcarona has terrible typing but a great movepool to offset this problem,) it also opens up interesting options for strong pokemon to sneak their way in because of a baby. This one was definitely a lot more interesting, but the lowest BST one was a good starting point for the concept
@ well no because some pokemon are min maxed better than others and have access to different move pools so just going with the lowest stats isn’t very creative or fun.
@@taylorjames14 that Crabominable should've been killed by Sinistcha, Luke was just trolling clicking Matcha Gotcha on the steel tera honestly, it can be really strong on a good pokemon, Crabominable is not one of those tho (they could also just draft Unaware) :D

I would rather fight a Landorus than a fur coat Blissey. ... Saying Rhyperior is better than the Pokemon whose signature move is basically giga drain _and_ scald _and_ surf wrapped into one grass move, however, is malarkey. In fact, the Charizard having desolate land makes Rhyperior much worse, because desolate land means instant solar beam, which means one very dead Rhyperior.
Actually an interesting point is that Luke knowing about Desolate Land makes Rhyperior that much better. It's just a snap Sap Sipper pick, meaning that Shady would need to deal with Rhyperior in some other way, and the desolate land means Tera Water isn't an option to do that.
@@matesk.4945 What, so you can kill the Charizard and set up rain... ... Which boosts water moves, which Rhyperior is also double-weak to? The Rhyperior was the "worse" choice.
I think Shady is a really fair man for letting Luke take back his decision with Blissey, because he's right, in that context, Blissey is absolutely disgusting.
I like that you discussed everything during the starter picks and ability drafts, instead of silently/privately making plans based on lowest BST. The strategies started early!
Fur Coat Blissey is just one tier below Dussey, so it's obviously the better mon. And I also love the format of this video, would love to see more of it, definitely.
sad no one thinks of attract strats when luvdisc comes up. still proud of my shiny girl luvdisc making someone ragequit in ranked doubles with one against an all-male team with thundurus and urshifu. they kept failing the coinflip to attack and would have to switch to remove it and lose their buffs in the process.

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.
That Lando/Blissey round is tough. The power of Fur Coat Blissey is undeniable, but a Lando-T with aerilate could do heavy damage with Double Edge and Explosion
LOVE your videos so much and look forward to them every Sunday! Love the people you collab with and makes me laugh everytime! Hope you keep doing what you do! 😄
Things Shady forgot on one turn: - Lando is scarfed - Charizard is Adamant, Lando is Jolly - Even if Charizard was Jolly, it still wouldn't have outsped because he hit himself with Toxic Thread, negating his DDance.
Video idea. Randomize three starters. You get to draft an ability for all of them. The other person knowing the pokemon and abilities you gave them chooses which combo you get. Do you they give you weak pokemon with strong abilities or strong pokemon with weak abilities.
One of the best videos. Totally agree with everyone else that the discussion about the worst Pokémon in context made this 10x better than other Choose the Worst Pokémon vids!
@@kodiedunn1234 no that's now how it is: Adamant Charizard +1 252 EVs is 228 speed Jolly Landorus +1 252 EVs is 235 speed there's only 9 base speed between them, nature will make the difference.
I have an idea for a video So your opponent chooses your starter, but if you get a shiny, then you can choose for yourself. With randomised abilties and maybe boosted shiny odds?
I used Crabominable on my original Moon team and I LOVE seeing my boy do some work, in one of the most toxic ways possible too. Seeing someone be afraid of him just made my day.
You should do one where you have to choose the weakest Pokémon and draft a Legendary whose stats (all of them) you’ll give to the weak Pokémon. Although, the weak Pokémon won’t evolve and will keep its regular ability, moveset and typing.
Crabominable with it's regular ability Iron Fist and using the move pool of Drain Punch, Ice Hammer, Power-up Punch and Thunder Punch could have been an really nice Pokémon with Choice Scarf.
I’d love to see another version of this concept where the first 3 picks for each person are just about the objective worst mon (lowest BST, bad moves, no evos, etc.). Then have the final 3 picks add on the team compositions of both sides so far. That way it’s limiting the manipulation your opponent can do against you with the “arguments.”
Amazing idea to move away from BST and consider everything when choosing the worst pokemon. The debates were top tier. And yes, Blissey would have been WAY too broken.
idea for a "then we fight", similar to this you pick a mon to give your opponent (dont tell them), then tell them the 2 you didnt take, then they can blindly choose its ability (drafted only 1 time like it was in this) will make for some wild ability/mon pairings and very interesting teams because you are trying to sabotage also Blissey>Lando
Video idea : every round, you pick a Pokémon for you and one for your opponent. The twist is that by seeing your reaction (but before any choice is made), the other player picks to either stay or reverse the Pokémon (so the Pokémon are swapped) BUT you only get a single swap.
Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favorites. I like your style. - Karen from Gold, Silver, and Crystal.
That stealth rock play was smart in theory but I don't get when making a play like that he wouldn't just check the speeds to make sure. It was pretty important one moved first so why not check.
Idea: choose your starter but you build each others teams and make the best version of each starter. Opponents don’t get to know what eachother chose until the start of the fight. Basically you build the best team (best pokemon on the screen) and then trade it to the opponent and then fight eachother without them knowing stats and moves blindly for the first game. (Basically you know what they have but you don’t know what you got). Then the second game, you actually trade the teams back to the ot and battle again. Extra twist: throw one illegal move or ability on one Pokémon each.
I'd say that ANY Blissey (in singles) confers more value to a team as a whole than the best. The main issue with Blissey is that it's trickier to pilot it and Lando-T is significantly easier to plug-and-play with insane role compression, but like a Shedinja, if you eliminate everything that threatens Blissey, it's an insta-win condition. Other mons can do what Landorus Therian does to some degree, and NO other mon is like Blissey even slightly.
How about: Choose your Starter by its trainer ? Like, look if the Pokemon is used by a trainer, gym leader, elite 4, random NPC who stands on the side of a road and only tell (maybe show with picture) the trainer from a game or anime or manga. And if a Pokemon wasn't used by a trainer, choose one standard-NPC-Trainer who would fit. Like Dottler could be used by a Bug Catcher.
Might be fun to do something like this where, instead of just giving any ability, you pick the mon on screen with lowest bst, an ability from the mon with the highest bst, and a move from the mon that's in between. In case of a tie, it's players choice
Fur coat blissey with healing and respectable special attack is one of the most disgusting pokemon in existence

13:00 blissey any ability is better than landorous any ability even if you do water absorb lando he's still quad weak to ice
I liked the back forth of talking about team comps, moves, etc. When deciding the worst mon. Much better than just the lowest bst.
I,for my Part, think that: Blissey>Lando.
At least for this kind of ruleset and especially if it is played by the 🐧.
at least until he thunders himself or something

I'd say that ANY Blissey (in singles) confers more value to a team as a whole than the best.

Other mons can do what Landorus Therian does to some degree, and NO other mon is like Blissey even slightly.

As soon as I saw Crabominable I screamed “Contrary” at my phone and was so sad seeing Shady miss the opportunity.
Usually I would not agree with Shady. BUT when Shady cooks with Blissey... Luke would not stand a chance.
I love Luke naming Poltchageist after an English tea brand and Shady not knowing it
