How I WON A Pokémon Unite Tournament

What a journey I've had with Pokémon Unite...from MOBA Novice to Tournament Winner!
I participated in the World Battle Entertainment Pokémon Unite which was hosted by Pokémon Content Creator, @aDrive. Together with my team, Team Tonka, we proved that we were the best Pokémon Unite Content Creators!

i absolutely love unite and this video was a nice blast to the past over unite's life cycle. good stuff, Kidd! your crustle do be schmoovin'

[@NianJKL]

This was a fantastic video it’s a shame it became really terrible fiasco by the end there. It definently puts in perspective how dedicated to planned and group stuff some of these KZbinrs are and I’m glad that your group had such dedication and integrity compared to all the others.

[@FireBlindStudios]

Team Tonka scoring a mad W, Team Awesome was Team Cringe tho for abandoning one of their teammates like that for a substitute. Long live Tonka, the wall that can resist (almost) anything.

[@rubykila2695]

i could have skiped it, but dint alpha abandoned the team awsome to do other stuff? and then he came back? i wouldnt take that as a very good thing to do, and if whoever took his place bonded better with the team, i'd pick that substitute too

[@redragon8551]

And than alpharad wins his own tournament, that's the child of chaos for you.

[@CafeLiquerstreams]

@@rubykila2695 you... know alpha was asleep right as he literally works his ass off doing so much more than just playing games, also... he puts so much effort into his videos and even supports creators such as Jaiden regularly

[@565studios2]

@Ruby Kila They fucking abandoned him dumbass, how would you feel if you missed an event with your friends, and the next time one came around they just went “Nah, we’ll take this person instead!”

[@IamMullet]

Awesome video Really shitty that people would just not show up for an event they chose to participate in

[@defrte]

Making decisions that join something because they were in the moment and then not showing up is selfish and childish, esp when they run off to stream something else

[@shykurata5736]

I won't say it like that since plans can be suddenly change that you can't predicted. What if there is a accident? What if there is something they can't stop and didn't see will happen, like a black out. What if their gaming set up start acting up weirdly? Alot of what if can happen, and some of this are can't be controlled.

[@tyoity]

One of them streamed minecraft vr during their match, what.

[@ryomahoshi4529]

​@shykurata5736 I mean if there was something urgent,then it would be fine,but Kidd showed that someone just decided to streap minecraft vr instead of participating on the tournament,so there is no excuse there

Yeah "lol we're gonna just keep our substitute" is pretty gross. You didn't lose to their team because it *wasn't* their team.

[@PointsofData]

I mean...on one hand yes the people invited should be playing but also...he wasnt there on time. I don't know what happened but it doesnt sound like any notice/warning was given. It was the last game of that set, tbh I wouldn't have wanted to change our strategy either, even if he had a really good excuse.

[@OGKaram]

i still wonder why they didnt use tyranitar in the tank team, tyranitar is hella bulky (i think more than crustle) and has huge damage+ stun. dark pulse stun+ sand coffin with sand wave timed at the right time and m1s can kill like 4 ppl at once. Ive been in someones score goal and killed 4 people while they were healing in the goal zone. tyranitar is braindead

[@notasqurril5542]

This tourney was before tyranitar was released

[@thomeaus6343]

So proud of my homie kicking butt in the tourney. I watch adrive and he does a LOT of unite so beating his team I'd pretty impressive. P.S. I'm not letting Philly live down that loss after getting so cocky lmao

Also, i'm 90% sure than alpharad was the one to come up with the team name

[@SomeFreakingCactus]

[@mirzashiraazmuhammadnazree4385]

Dude great video man.

[@emperorbooglitch8540]

You know what, my animation idea to design the feeling for this video honestly hinges on this kind of airy feeling, this almost feeling that you're walking through a cloudy cyberspace and you're just hearing Captain Kidd's disembodied voice just talking to you, and it doesn't have any other special effects or gimmicks aside from the fact that instead of scenes cutting from one scene to the other they instead come in, kind of like those old rodeo things or like those few fourth wall breaking episodes of Looney Toons in which Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny constantly get messed up by their respective animators, except this time instead of Captain Kidd being animated over he's instead got two people, his in-video persona and his real self, constantly editing and voicing over his own videos. This is going to be incredibly trippy and confusing, so expect a few comedic moments where you can't tell whether or not it's the persona talking or the real person. This is basically the vibe I'm going for.
