I like seeing weak unevolved pokémons in action like that. In fact, I did my Shining Pearl playthrough using Smoochum & Togepi. Togepi was super clutch during the Palkia fight and Smoochum was somehow one of the MVPs of my team. In fact, I don’t know how Smoochum keeps being so useful to me: in my Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX playthrough, my Smoochum just DESTROYED Rayquaza.
Smoochum doesn't have too bad a BST or moveset, especially for a baby pokemon. The physical stats are abysmal but the special attack is pretty reasonable at 85 and the special defence and speed are both 65. Togepi also has a very wide movepool even if it doesn't have the stats to use it.
You can always try the tier LC on showdown! It’s my tier of choice and I was pretty surprised when zigzagoon wasn’t chosen here cus it’s easily the strongest of these, being able to learn belly drum is huge on such a fast pokemon.
The draft battle concept is so fun. I love the idea of Wooper strapping on his Assault Vest. You'd obviously have to help him zip it up and everything... what a guy.
These 2 wins outta 3 matches should be more regular. It gives the unused and the Pokemon who got 1-shot their time to shine. Plus, it gives an easy first battle, a big change with both opponents knowing each other's movesets and abilities
Drew's barber giving him a "Shut your five hole" shirt is the most passive aggressive thing I have heard. This was a great video once again, great seeing Drew and it was fun seeing him win!
I for some reason was so hoping for a misunderstanding and Drew would fully evolve his mons and so it cuts to "okay so he had to rebuild his mons knowing now the challenge" with a defeated sputtering of "well how was I meant to know?!" kinda thing.. not that Drew needed it lol Also surprised no Eviolite was used since it superior to Assault Vest iirc
Random comment - I remember watching you when you played Yu-Gi-Oh duel links and talked about going back to school for design or something other. Glad i found my way back to the channel
a challenge similar to this would be if you tried to catch all of the worst possible pokemon for you opponent, maybe even with no evolving, but they get to choose their own moves, ability, and item
I think yall should totally continue the best out of 3. It would allow yall to build teams that can play off both surprises and then regular competitive play. IF it is super even then yeah totally keep it at one battle but some seem like almost wash outs and would love to see the comeback potential of some of these teams
This was be cool as a fusion, but once you pick something the other person can't pick the same one and try to make the bad ones decent, but you use the bad fully evolved pokemon
Bro as a Cleffa fanatic, I gotta say it doesn't deserve to be here unless everything is based on stats. It can get some broken moves, and with the right items it can demolish the tankiest foes
yo shady this is your first video that's popped up in my feed in like 4 months. I'm subscribed and have the bell rung so maybe my alg is all messed up. Loved the vid idea and clearly have a backlog of these draft videos to watch. Oh also that beard is next level.

Drew, Shady and a Draft battle, there's no better way to start the day!
He honestly couldn’t have picked a better person to do this specific draft with either 😂 these two are hilarious!
Takes me back to blind battles
DAMNED SIIIIMP

Shady: This week we draft the worst Pokémon in SwSh!
Barboach: Who decided that??? 🤨
crying at the way drew destroyed you in the first battle 😂 also love the new transitions!! very fancy 😎
Whenever you and Drewby are in a video together I know it's gonna be fire.
Drew + Shady videos will forever be my favorite, love your guys chemistry
Mr. Talent is back. This reminds me of the Pokémon stadium battles where looser wears the most ridiculous costumes.
I love the Idea behind it. It's usually the same Pokémon, Legendary, UB or Pseudo.
I enjoy seeing a variety of mons
Shady, the noises you make when you are upset or surprised are sooooooooo funny, i love it so much. So fun to watch. Please never stop ^^
These 2 wins outta 3 matches should be more regular. It gives the unused and the Pokemon who got 1-shot their time to shine. Plus, it gives an easy first battle, a big change with both opponents knowing each other's movesets and abilities
Having 2 out of 3s seems fun, especially if it's the randomise 10 pick 6 if you allow for swapping mons out inbetween matches from your 10
I really love nothing more than drew and shady together.
"I got my feces pants on" 💀
Why was Wooper in the box it's clearly one of the best Pokemon in existence
Drew's barber giving him a "Shut your five hole" shirt is the most passive aggressive thing I have heard. This was a great video once again, great seeing Drew and it was fun seeing him win!
No one has the chemistry like these two. Literally dying 😂😂☠️☠️ such a good video
love this, always seeing legendaries gets somewhat old so I love seeing pokemon you never see used.
I was hesitant about the video idea, but I ended up really enjoying it. I think most of that was down to shady and drewby being such fun to watch.
The beard is looking magnificent Shady! Keep it up!
Mr. Talent is in a video!? Let's go!! Feels like 2019-2020 again
Shady I love you for picking my baby Wimpod. I so rarely get to see my boy Golisopod in any battle videos so this really made me happy
Love the trash battle! I’d love to see more of the Pokémon that don’t get much love.
You can feel the “lifelong friend” vibes with these two together 😂
Drew: “You threw filth at me so I brought arrogance” 😂
Chemistry always unmatched between these two
Shady: “Your a literal piece of fruit on the floor.”
Drew: “Your literally a lilly pad.”
I for some reason was so hoping for a misunderstanding and Drew would fully evolve his mons and so it cuts to "okay so he had to rebuild his mons knowing now the challenge" with a defeated sputtering of "well how was I meant to know?!" kinda thing.. not that Drew needed it lol
Also surprised no Eviolite was used since it superior to Assault Vest iirc
We love to see Drew v Shady, a battle as old as time.
You guys should do fusions, but you're trying to create the worst teams for your opponent. lol
Literally moves the "next video" box to cover Drew's elbow, that is great XD
I underestimated your friend, holy heck he is GOOD! Even with a bad team he gets them to work!
These draft then battle videos are to lit. Def gonna need more
when he said “if i knew how FAT this egg was” i lost it
So many laughs during this one. 🤣 Keep up the fantastic content as always!!!
Random comment - I remember watching you when you played Yu-Gi-Oh duel links and talked about going back to school for design or something other. Glad i found my way back to the channel
This was really fun to watch good vid shady!
Bro I love how drew riles up shady I love it !!! 😂😂
a challenge similar to this would be if you tried to catch all of the worst possible pokemon for you opponent, maybe even with no evolving, but they get to choose their own moves, ability, and item
Shady said apples sink in water but clearly has never been bobbing for apples! Haha
You and Drew’s banter always gets me cracking up
I think yall should totally continue the best out of 3. It would allow yall to build teams that can play off both surprises and then regular competitive play. IF it is super even then yeah totally keep it at one battle but some seem like almost wash outs and would love to see the comeback potential of some of these teams
I love this I always wanted a video where you catch eachothers teams so you can give them trash
4:35 Well I think I know what the most rewatched part of the video is gonna be.
Ralts: *Get’s picked first*
Also Ralts: *198 BST*
Little league!!! Love this format so much, it's so good seeing babies battle it out
Please do more content with Drew, its always THE BEST content on youtube
This was be cool as a fusion, but once you pick something the other person can't pick the same one and try to make the bad ones decent, but you use the bad fully evolved pokemon
We need these 2 out of 3s!!!
Great video, that fish strong.
Getting salty over barboach is quite funny 🤣
Shady and nipps the o.g duo
Id love to see actual serious competitive double battles between you and gbl
I’m so happy, I’ve been wanted a video with just terrible Pokémon for the longest time
This feels like vindication of a sort after repeated losses in rival lockes.
Drewby went to the hyperbolic time chamber to get revenge from Rivalocke. For real, Radical Red changes a man.
Never thought I’d see Shady get wiped by a barboach
Little Cup is some of the most fun I've ever had on pokemon to be honest.
I have missed seeing you and Drew do stuff. I have always loved it and it is extremely enjoyable :)
awesome seeing these drafting videos! - but ya gotta get some crits in my dude! - sending love
I cant believe he said wooper is one of the worst. Wooper is better than Arceus and even he is scared
DREWBY!!!!! I LOVE THAT GUY! and the chemistry between you two
honestly did not know about that interaction between Wimp Out and U-turn until now, and I've been playing Pokemon since 2008 :/
Shady in most videos: please pichu Shady in this video: doesn’t pick pichu
Literally Wooper was the best pokemon in this battle
Bro as a Cleffa fanatic, I gotta say it doesn't deserve to be here unless everything is based on stats. It can get some broken moves, and with the right items it can demolish the tankiest foes
Best 2 of 3 is cool, I'd like to see more of that.
I love these draft challenges!
Idea 💡 A nuzlocke with fused mons but you can't fully evolve them unless you find the other juice
What a refersher from the absolute POWER of the fusion battles.
Edit: just finished the video. Never mind there's still POWER!
I have been waiting for you guys to do a video like this!! May the worst win!
Bro sounded like a Pokemon at 5:44
Carkol would have been great, simply for Stealth Rocks alone. Give it Motor Drive and a Focus Sash aswell and it could do solid work.
Drew is no mercy - he represents trash-mons with respect and brutality.
Great Guest!
Admittedly I’m kinda sad no one grabbed Nickit, sure it may not be great but it does get nasty plot, foul play, on top of other great moves!
Almost like blind battles, just missing the blindfolds and punishments
In the notification i saw togepi, and "we can only use aw", and thought it was cute mons only, was lowkey excited
"cool, finally something without legendaries, this battles will be longer and close!"
*Oh"
Glad to see drewby again
I would kill for more drewby and shady content
Gosh I love the combo of you two!
I swear every video with u guys is just pure comedy and i love it
Alright, run it back!
Yeah, let's go!
I like the new transition before battle
This is peak performance. All the praise
You called Wooper awful. There will be consequences.
Proof that we need the next generation of Rivallocke
Man shady Drew put in the work in this video 😂😂 but this was a super funny video good job
I was fully expecting someone to take belly drum ziggy and just sweep
I would love to see this format but with monotype teams
drafting as fantasy football goes on lol
yo shady this is your first video that's popped up in my feed in like 4 months. I'm subscribed and have the bell rung so maybe my alg is all messed up. Loved the vid idea and clearly have a backlog of these draft videos to watch. Oh also that beard is next level.
Shady can I recommend a video idea it could be 6 random fusions then metronome only it will be jokes
12:38 hehe elbow = bicep flex
Best Poke-Duo in the game
You guys slept on Venipede
Best 2/3 always!!! Love seeing Drew here
We need another rival Locke!!!🙏🏻
I think Drewby just dethroned GBL as the king of embarrassing Shady on his channel
LOVE THE DRAFT BATTLES!!
