Well to be far there are some that aren’t good like wimp out isent the best ability

[@MunchKING]

@@loganbeckham8037 Wimp out might be cool if you could build around it like Golisipod, but "First Impression" isn't a W move. :(

fun fact, kinesis isn't in the game either so K pokemon literally have 2 moves to use in this condition

I don’t even know any K moves aside from Kowtow Cleave Edit: I see now

[@111games.]

They should at least allowing Last Resort for these conditions lol

[@jammington24]

There are 4 "z" moves, and 2 of them are not even functional in Scarlet and Violet. So the lesson is NEVER choosing "z", "y", "q", "n", "k", or "j",; those letters won't do any good in moves nor abilities.

You know what i'm thinking? Shadow Tag Spore Sticky Web Stealth Rock Spikes That sounds like a horrifying monstrosity, especially since hazard removal gets really limited withing this format.

[@Pablo360able]

I don't think I've ever seen these guys remove a hazard.

@@vitorsimoes8125Eh... in this kind of scenario, you can see if your opponent has access to Taunt or Magic Bounce since it's all based on the letters.

[@gametender1]

spore sticky web shell smash surging strikes

[@NotAnEvilMastermind]

@@gametender1 if you go for a sweeper, i'd drop the sticky web for another attacking move. Even with how strong +2 Surging Strikes would be, it's probably not taking out a good resistance, plus there are quite a few water immunity abilities (some of which i can definitely see someone bringing)

[@McBehrer]

0:23 I like how you said "Last time we did it this way, BUT..." as if you were going to do it differently, but then you still did it exactly the same way

These were all recorded during the time he was sick which was a while ago. All of these videos you see were recorded months ago.

[@Killer1984able]

He's not sick anymore based from his recent streams, this is an older video

[@hanakoisbestgirl4752]

Choose your starter but alphabetically. Your ability has to start with the letter after your starter, and your moves the same with each move after the previous move. If you get say arceus, your ability has to start with B so say beads of ruin. First move C so close combat, 2nd move D so dig, 3rd move E so explosion, 4th move F so final gambit. Also your ability has to start with the letter your starter name ends with, 1st move with the letter the ability ends with, 2nd move the letter the 1st move ends with, 3rd move the letter the 2nd ends with, and 4th move the letter the 3rd move ends with. Example being Arceus starter, ability swarm, 1st move mach punch, 2nd move headbutt, 3rd move triple kick, 4th move knock off. Both could be cool and really make you think

[@111games.]

Is there any move starts with Q? oh quiver dance my bad

Out of the channels I’ve seen that do Pokémon challenges like these, I think I enjoy Luke’s editing the best. Small things like showing the pokemon teams each person has as they choose them, and zooming in on the health drops each turn

[@northwind2538]

Going physical Alolachu just for Pure Power is insane when you had options like Purifying Salt, Psychic Surge, Prism Armor, Primordial Sea, Prankster, etc. lol

[@darioschottlender]

Alolan Raichu has 85 base physical attack, which means 295 top at lvl 100; with pure power that's 590, which is more than the 526 mega Mewtwo x has. Photon geyser deals 100 base physical damage if the stat is higher than the special one with 100 accuracy. That set was insane, make it scarf or band and destroy!

[@northwind2538]

@@darioschottlender I'm not saying it's bad, I just think there were more fun options available lol

[@MrKM888]

With that Vigoroth popping up, I had this image of a "Vessel of Ruin" Slaking with Victory Dance/V-Create/Volt Tackle/Vice Grip (STAB atleast) and that wouldve been such a strong hitter to be honest. Anyways, I just love these video's and I definitely wish I could join these haha

Always love your videos! You have been one of my favorite PokeTubers growing up and love supporting you bro! Hope you keep making more amazing things! 😄

[@alfAlfredo-bf3hq]

Nice video, always good to watch for a break.

[@DryBones271]

For J your ONLY moves is: Judgement Jungle Healing Jet Punch Jaw Lock Jump kick was removed in Gen 8 so it would not work. Ability there's only 1: Justified.

[@SiebayPlays]

I’ve never even heard of these

[@zeus-kyurem6581]

​@@SiebayPlaysthree of them are sitnature moves (Arceus, Zarude, and Palafin), and the other was introduced in gen 8 (and I think it was the signature move of Drednaw at the time but more mons get it now)

You should try another version of this where the first letter of the name also applies to what items they could hold!

I thought of a format based off on this idea + one i saw Pat and Shady do You get to know the starting letter of the pokemon, other person get to BAN one of the pokemon (thats just like the one pat and shady did) Here is my change The pokemon that got banned gives your pokemon a single move in their letter or an ability in their letter Giving a little bit more room for picking pokemon with letters that have bad abilities or if you arent careful with the banning you might end up banning a Dragonite and then give a swampert, speed boost, swords dance, substitute and drain punch Not super broken but gives an extra layer to the picking and choosing side of the video

[@petrie911]

The letters you want to avoid are K, Q, U, X, Y, and Z. None of them even have four functional moves to choose from. J and O have only five moves to choose from, but at least they're all pretty good. Jump Kick/Jet Punch/Jaw Lock/Jungle Healing with Justified is a competent physical attacker, while Overheat/Overdrive/Origin Pulse/Order Up with Orichalcum Pulse is a killer special attacker. Definitely don't double up on either.

[@Xrela]

Any pokemon with J's would be op, Judgment day, Jungle Healing, Jump kick, and jaw lock. And ability would be force to Justified
