You did ban protean Magikarp right???

[@MattHancho]

Love how Dylan says thats not Huge Power damage and doesn't have speed boost when he has neutralizing gas so of course he wouldn't get the huge power boost or the speed boost

[@KillaKief999]

This exactly

[@t.c.574]

Or when he saw Eternatus took no entry hazard damage so he said it had heavy duty boots, then began to figure out whether it was banded or scarfed 😂

[@UnitedGamer]

@@t.c.574 my brain isn’t working these past few months lol

[@t.c.574]

@UnitedGamer all good, bro! Honestly very entertaining and refreshing to know it happens to someone other than me 🤣

[@Hyunckel101]

Dylan frame 1 into the battle : "I'm gonna go into my neutralizing gas, just in case he has huge power". Goes to his neutralizing gas pokemon : "Okay this is definitely not huge power damage"... Bro take a short moment to think about what you just said 😂

[@MrDarthtater]

it's ok rich. at least you got swept by a mewtwo and not a venomoth lmao

[@UnitedGamer]

That’s messed up

[@GumballMachinery]

Tbf, Rich uploaded a video on his channel earlier this week where Vinny swept him with a Frosmoth. So it appears they both struggle with moth Pokemon. lol

[@MrDarthtater]

@GumballMachinery oh cool I gotta go check that out

[@MrDarthtater]

@UnitedGamer its all just good fun lol ngl I forgot about it for awhile then got reminded on the last episode of dad's being dudes

[@goldenlynx2756]

Imagine if it was a kricitune or the little ant guy. Don't remember the name 😂😂😂

[@redgaming-nq9dx]

4:40 who wants to tell him that eternatus and caterpie have the same catch rate? 😂

[@matthewcolbert370]

You can tell how long ago this was recorded because… 1) This was when the announcement of Rich being engaged was new news. 2) Rich still has the man-bun.

[@SuperSonicShadow27]

Dylan must have a crazy backlog of videos with Rich still sporting the man bun in this one he hasn’t had in almost two months. Also CTRL is some of the best products I’ve ever tried. They are delicious

[@ThawtsForFood]

Have you ever thought of a "would you rather" style video? Where you get 3 pokemon choices, but each comes with a specific buff/nerf?

[@FrancescoDeRobertis-q5u]

31:56 I’m so sorry Rich😔😂

[@gatorman5547]

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.

[@PapyrusTheSke1eton]

This sounds fun

[@arbiter771]

are you just copy pasting this onto every poketubers comments

[@flowingdose]

sounds good even if it is copy pasted, would be fine with me, has more chance's to happen. They say it takes advertising to 20 people a product just to get 1 customer.

[@please-wake-up-now]

This was such a wild idea! 🎉 The shiny catching adds a cool twist, and giving it any ability? Genius! I’m curious though, what will happen when they both pick the same shiny? Now that's a battle I wanna see! 💥

[@gregoryhelms2777]

Love the content and the dedication, if your ever looking for a good pokemon rom hack/ fan game to make a series on, ive been playing a lot of pokemon fire ash, mostly because its a pokemon game, but the anime. Its really entertaining especially since it now covers the anime from gens 1 to 8 and not just the first one.

[@KVO723]

Saying box arts have higher shiny odds is technically false. Up until Sun & Moon they all (except Rayquaza and if you count him Zygarde) had a catch rate of 3, then in Sun & Moon the box arts have a catch rate of 45 which is the same as a starter. In gen 8 everything is back to having a catch rate of 3 except Zaciqn and Zamazenta have a catch rate of 10 being ever-so-slightly easier, and then for whatever reason all Necrozma forms and Eternatus have the catch rate of Pidgey being 255

[@FartingSpider12]

I think you meant to say higher "catch rate" not "shiny odds" but yeah I was just scrolling down to post this exact comment. Dont know where dylan got this info (assuming from sun and moon) but that the ONLY game where it happens (except maybe Legends Arceus, I'm pretty sure some of the legends in that game are wayyy easier to catch but it also feels like every pokemon in that game is easier to catch)

[@SiebayPlays]

So I’ve been lied to

[@codyn450]

I’m so sorry rich. That mewtwo is broken

[@Bloomkyaaa]

I mean he let him have it, he definitely should not have lol.

[@HiHi-i4w8k]

Welp my video got spoiled

[@mileslitzler6696]

Had an idea for a video where you guys catch pokemon just like this but depending on the ball you catch the pokemon with different effects will happen. You get one master ball and that can give a pokemon any ability or a broken move and other than that the harder the ball is to catch a pokemon the better the effect you get

[@Sceptiledagoat]

Actually Pokemon who are important to the story usually do have higher catch rate so there is some truth to dylan's statement but it doesn't happen to box arts that often 9:11

[@aaronstuart8490]

Dylan, you can't change the thumbnail while I'm watching the episode 😂 I went in with Groudon and thought there was another video when I saw Rayquaza 😂😂

[@ElgarTheRegicide]

In game 2, I wonder if conkeldurr w/ a focus sash clicking knock off against mewtwo wouldve killed it after it first came in

[@charley8787]

It would've, I can't believe he forgot it...

[@enderdoctor7631]

exactly, first how do you sash a conke​ldur, then how do you forget it too @@charley8787

[@TheArtDump]

He also could have just mach punch killed without breaking his sash after Altaria died to ice beam since Mewtwo was ice type.

[@mitchelljohnson9253]

Yeah I feel like he was throwing for content or something - he had a prankster thunder wave on cobalt too

The move miss and Bellibolt used spark and paralyzed my shuppet. I reset because my Pokemon are almost out of the range of the level cap. So I moved around and I happened again with Iono. not twice, thrice, but FOUR TIMES! So I really felt the pain

[@StaticPika]

Love the videos you post and is a good time watching! Congrats to Richard on his engagement as well! Hope you keep creating more dope content! 😄

[@thecoasterguy7367]

Just do a regular battle where you pick all your favorite Pokémon and favorite moves on them. Doing something simple is sometimes more entertaining than all the special challenges. Because y’all would enjoy it😅.

[@cubing-for-life194]

You should do Psuedo Legendary pokemon vs. Paradox mons and see who wins I think it would be cool.

8:58 i do get that lol, because in my violet playthrough i used my master ball on a shiny iron valiant then i found out that the second miridon existed so i used a quick ball on it and caught it first tunr

Went ahead and got my first order of CTRL in. Did a Bundle with all the cookies, Peanut butter bar, Chocolate chip and a few of the shakes. Lets see how this one goes.

With the number of videos of making mons. You should make a video where you pick some of the best Pokémon created and some of the worst mons created. Like a spin-the-wheel or pick from 3 randomizer.

[@Iceycube1404]

As a kid I thought shinies had other abilities than the normal colors. Probably stems from catching a shiny caterpie and being surprised that it changed ability every time it evolved

Is that uncrowned Zacian? Crowning it would have been worth it; it gets a lot higher attack and speed, plus becomes fairy/steel, it doesn’t just give intrepid sword

Gotta wheel and deal a bit more. Should have said you can each throw one more ball, instead of you both get them. Worked out good for you though😂

The Tokyo Ghoul opening. I actually watched the entire first season dubbed and honestly I wasn’t scared by the look of the Ghouls. I was super impressed because they look so cool and the animation is just so incredible. Now I’m on season 2 and I’m already 4 episodes in.

I highly recommend making a jump to the manga if you're okay with reading manga. The anime doesn't properly adapt it after s1 and doesn't do the story/art justice at all.

The reason Zacian [and Zamazenta] are so hard to catch despite this being their game is because they aren't the catch in the main story like other legends are- Eternatus is.
