how did this comment happen 14 hours ago but the video was uploaded 13 hours ago yt is tweaking :/

[@Patterrz]

I LOVE TOURNAMENT!

[@Whatzitooya891]

It’s even more hype when you got Primal Kyogre and up against Dylan who has Primal Groudon

[@priestesslucy]

And I love Patt as a commentator. Feels like watching an actual _good_ football commentator. Or pro wrestling 😂

[@yeastyman]

I also love cosmere naming schemes!

[@midpixie]

I'M SURE TOURNAMENT LOVES YOU TOO, DANIEL

[@E1deRival]

You probably could've killed abomasnow in the battle with Dylan bc of the first boost applies to the second hit with kangaskhan

[@ScubaShark8857]

Luke's Charizard strat was genuinely one of the coolest things I've ever seen in this video. I never even realized you could do that with megas when they can hold any item. Absolutely insane.

[@SnowLily06]

It's something he used to do back in the ffa days and to this day is the coolest thing you can do with a mega

[@Rixec2]

I just love that the first battle ended in a Destiny Bond draw. Yes, I know Dylan wins by how the system works, but it's fun to see even if someone goes down, they make sure no mon is left standing. XD

[@michealgauthier9514]

Editor: mocking Dylan with that scream on the toilet scene hahaha. Nice touch.

[@buianh1393]

the editor became a dragon ball character

[@wagawaffles]

Did your editor pass a kidney stone or something LMAO

[@DiamondWolf4896]

Bro I literally said the exact same thing to myself 💀

[@danviferahr1426]

He passed on

[@hamdaantdm]

Why u saying the editor, he’s literally the one in the tournament who won, call him by his name.

[@danviferahr1426]

@hamdaantdm matt isnt the editor though

[@GreyFireClover]

​​@@hamdaantdm badluckbrooks edited this he's not in the tournament

[@KyleTheMan4444]

Kyogre with Water SPORT (not Water SPOUT) is crazy. Which is funny, since Pat gave a Pokemon SPIDER Web instead of STICKY web in one of Shady's recent videos.

[@domc55]

Awesome tournament, congrats to Shady's second favorite son. One idea for any future tournaments, the two commentating at the end should get the two participants' team sheets so that they know what items and stat spreads are being used and can give more accurate calcs and predictions and talk through potential strategies better with more information

[@Tarrandus]

I second this idea

[@midpixie]

This is the only good idea I've seen in a Poketuber comment section

[@Isaiah_mend]

Luke killed me with the commentary that last game 😂 brother was wrong every time hahaha. great content love the videos guys ❤

[@vsweetpeaxoxo]

5:53 caught me so off guard im CACKLING😭🤣

[@thomasgrant0609]

The "Piveot" pun is underrated and had me laughing so hard... 👏👏👏

[@Fireballx1234]

2:57 THE DON!!!!!!!

[@Regeor]

33:48 Luke didn’t realise that the Sandstorm buffeted Mediacham first, indicating it was faster 🤦‍♂️.

[@FaynOrvin]

Less than 2 minutes in right now, but Dylan passing in the first round made me think "what if the other players got to take one pokémon from another player's passed rounds for their team to replace one of theirs?" might need to be randomized who gets whose in a tournament style thing (or maybe from whoever they match up against first), but it could be pretty funny to have a passed pokémon sweep the person that passed on them potentially. Edit: I didn't think about the fact that this one is "take all 3 of leave all 3". In a situation like this it'd probably make more sense to say "they get to exchange one of their 3 sets with one of the skipped ones" or something

[@dylanbain5821]

The sceptile hate hurts my heart every time lol

[@pr7c3y]

It's ok Truegreen7

[@dhitkill194]

Just wish it was a physical attacker with SD/DDance Scale Shot and Leaf Blade

[@danviferahr1426]

@dhitkill194 3 physical mega starters is an issue though

[@dhitkill194]

@@danviferahr1426 ... Good point. I wish we had more (or any) multi hit special moves though, and one that did the same as scale shot but spdef

[@Regeor]

Imagine Skill Link Bullet Seed and Scale Shot Mega Sceptile.

[@udhayasurya-s4n]

mega beedrill with any item is so good and you passed on it

[@rockowlgamer631]

Focus Sash would've given Mega Beedrill at least a chance with how frail it is.

[@danviferahr1426]

​@rockowlgamer631 yeah no, you band it and it outspeeds and ohkoes 1 or 2 mons immediately. Also u turn just ripping apart defenses

[@danviferahr1426]

For nerd purposes id run this set Beedrill-Mega @ Choice Band Level: 50 Jolly Nature Ability: Adaptability EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe - U-turn - Drill Run - Poison Jab - Knock Off

That mf would have been doing half of groudons hp if he wasnt a fire type

[@MarioMasR]

Hi guys, really enjoying the tournament shenanigans once in a while!! Have you ever thought about implementing the losers braket on these since pokemon is so hax based?

[@madarauchiha2953]

Dude, that first battle was pure content. I loved it

[@ThumberBulls6]

PAAAAAATT!! nooo The Charizard tech is very awesome, Luke.

[@gmo53104]

59:54 MEGA SWAMPERT THE GOAT! ATTA GO DYLAN! COMING IN CLUTCH WITH MY TIDE AND TRUE ACE SWAMPERT! GG MAN! Such a fun tournament!

[@earthbloodelf5289]

You know, I was thinking Dylan threw pretty hard not picking either of those first ones, but he absolutely pulled it around

[@dejinnthedjinn5311]

5:55 Bro was fighting for his life.

[@whysoserious6244]

That crit mattered 🗣️ That crit didn't mattered 🗣️

[@LonelyOcean]

6:16 UnitedThrower ladies and gentlemen...

[@Konomidebanshouwashikisesur]

I love how everything that Luke said was gonna happen, the opposite always happened 😂😂

[@KVO723]

That last game was AWESOME. Pert coming in for the win!

[@merpnderp2023]

I love this idea, but I think if the winners of the first round could draft Pokémon from the losing team would be so cool Overpowered final team championship!!!

[@nigru6599]

If i could put any item on a mega zard, I would definitely give it a charizardite X, so i can switch megas mid-battle 😎

[@spiritflare4228]

That play was sooo broken 😂 Set up the drought Mega into Zard X Stab Flare blitz boosted in the sun. Tough Claws boost That thing is gonna destroy everything

[@Broken_Everlark7]

I freakin love the Don. He's so hilarious. Him with Luke is the best😆

[@natd1231]

Cool idea , if you win the semi you can take 3 pokemon from the opponents team you beat and swap them for 3 of yours.

[@MiffedKitten]

8:06 Mega Garchomp isn't bad here Its worse speed stat is why it's not used much. But you can hold items here

[@teemized2883]

I'd love to see this with ALL of the friend group!!! (I know it'd be a bit time-consuming and it's probably hard to find a time when everyone would be available, but hey, maybe it could be a multi-video tournament)

[@briceknighton5053]

Dylan forgetting he's the Goat of multiple different battle formats

[@Dusxio]

Yooo... Mega steelix's death animation is pretty clean

[@ambibacon3175]

What if you did a tournament video with random starters and winner of the 4 or 8 would go against wolfievgc with random starters for a video that would be sick

[@AJ-or7tq]

That would work. Only thing is it can't be modded at all as wolfey wouldnt want to upset big Pikachu having his entire career based on it

[@ambibacon3175]

@AJ-or7tq yea that's true

[@Kafka_fan7000]

40:34 watching this while eating dinner had was saying i liked the bread they jabe and don yells "there's bread on the line" could not have timed that better lmfao

[@KVO723]

I resent mega Banette being lumped in with the trash mega Audino. SD Shadow Sneak off 165 attack, and you can’t kill him without fearing the Prankster Destiny Bond. Also Will-O-Wisp to cripple threats, bro is way underrated

[@albertonishiyama1980]

Problem is that you can only Mega once, but in a game like this where all megas are in play at the same time it's WAAAY better.

[@enderdoctor7631]

real

[@Bootstand]

Thank you

[@Waynehead899]

Next time yall do this yall should add another twist after you beat your opponent u get swap only 1 Of your Pokemon with 1 pokemon with the person u beat

[@adriangenao22]

i may need Pat and Luke on commentary for every battle in the future lmao

[@Brett-ww9fv]

The Don, is a rare human. He sees smoke no matter what, and makes it work to the best of the pokemon in front of him capabilities, whereas others would see trash he sees treasure

[@ryandawson1126]

Would love to see a bigger 8 man tournament with the same 4 plus Vinny, shady, Tobin and rich. In that tournament you choose 9 starters from 4 options and you can use any of the 9 Pokémon throughout the tournament

[@KVO723]

AGGRON IS A BEAST!

[@StaticPika]

Glad that you got a win in your own tournament! Love the people you collab with and is always really good content! Hope you keep creating more! 😄

[@ryansikora9524]

If only Dylan switched into doom to take that eq instead of letting Groudon go down he would have been in such a good position but GG guys awesome vid!!

[@mattparker-2]

when dylan shows wolfeys last crazy team in a video just hours before wolfe does

[@wayneisrich]

Dylan definitely sold not taking zard, sceptile and scizor

[@Skylerrelyks93]

Nope

[@Abhishek-ue6tj]

This whole video was throws all around.

[@AlphaOutlaw]

Definitely. The group of six he first got was very good on the whole

[@ploopy41-3]

​@@Skylerrelyks93Tf you mean nope. Mega Charizard X is broken in singles and mega scizor and septile are also really good

[@SweetBananaDigital]

All 3 battles were hype! I really enjoyed the commentary during the final battle.

[@Volt790]

I always count Destiny Bond & Explosion-like finishers as to whoever used the move. Doesn't matter if they go down first, they did the play to make sure the knockout could happen with those moves.

[@RubyMSylver]

That toilet joke was peak comedy, I showed my SO and said it was like he was going Super Saiyan XD

[@sceptilesoul]

15:56 editor did an underdogs reference and thought I wouldn't notice

I love when these videos use classic Sonic music. Luke does it a lot too.

6:17 Dude why tf would you pass!? Mega Charizard and Scepitle are OP and goated! You being TOO greedy! 🤦

Theyre both mid.

The Don vs gameboyluke was one of the most entertaining battles I've seen in a while.

[@danny18894]

Don and Luke have great synergy , I like it , reminds me of Rhyme and Deion a lot

[@quantumnleo7044]

A huge win for the swampert loving community, shout out to my favourite pokemon the goat

[@michaelpeebs]

Congrats Dylan. I really wanted to see sheer cold against the no guard pidgeot 😂

[@darkman_street8496]

Brooks going to the bathroom to scream about the boss is so relatable 😂

[@DeCurstis]

Just picked up my United Shaker Cup yesterday!!! I absolutely love your content and your poketuber community! I am going to start creating content myself with my friends because you have inspired me!

[@chemicistt]

Patterz with the Mistborn names?? Absolutely fantastic series

[@zerkvoltago]

Thought for sure Matt was taking the W just after seeing he was there. Wild Final game. GG

[@Ronaee]

These tournaments are sooo fun I love watching them

[@Azaeli]

tell me how dylan just bought the final boss of pokemon tournaments WITH A MEGA RAYRAY bro deserved this one

[@mozeam]

i love this video idea!!! and the commentary from the brits was amazing.

[@kod4062]

great vid... The Don is the funniest dude in the pokemon scene and it's not even close XD hope he's back on the channel soon and gz on squeezin the win there

[@ekkkkkans9315]

Now this is my favorite tournament of this Saturday

[@Noyt_Tee]

This was an amazing video. Amazing matches to all of yall

[@DJprofessorK]

Beating the don for the win is huge. Good stuff dylan

[@RichAdlington]

Patterz deserves this solely for the Mistborn names.

[@christopherstacey9613]

What a video, that was fun from start to end.

[@donovantercero5551]

Love the tournaments every time they come out. Here's an idea, tournament but like look for your team then tournament but who ever wins take your opponent mon if you want to strengthen your team.

[@FoxxPlushie]

Choice scarf Mega Swampert does outspeed Mega Rayquaza because the choice scarf multiplier is bigger than a 50% boost of the pokemon's base stat when you factor in the evs and Ivs - 🤓🤓 Swampert Max Speed: 262 Mega Rayquaza Max Speed: 361 Choice Scarf Swampert Max Speed: 393

[@Hutchins23]

Dylan way to greedy! You take the Charizard, scizzor and sceptile

[@Gangsta_Playz]

Seeing my favorite Pokémon of all time (Mega Mawile) finally getting used is amazing

[@TerrickTerran]

Still can't believe Daniel thought he could win with Destiny Bond and no other pokemon.

[@wingless4400]

Finally a vid with the don in!! been too long 😌

[@PNWDucko]

The hate for mons with 4x weaknesses is crazy like you play around with those good mons

[@TheIcenick]

Can we just acknowledge Patterz amazing mist born name references 😊

[@shuvi.mn129]

legends say editor is still fighting the pain in the toilet

[@KVO723]

If ONLY mega Audino kept Regenerator

[@FoxxPlushie]

I highly doubt it'll still do anything lol

[@oreocookieplayz9935]

MATTS BACK!! :D

[@EIXII_KJ]

Battle idea; you do a tournament and pick starters how ever you want. Then when you win a game you can take two of your opponents starters and have them. In the finals it’s best 2 outa three and you can make substitutions for the finals.

[@Bauer753]

These battles were crazy

[@samuelgardner2653]

"...but this isn't Pokemon, this is Dylan's little SAW trap"

[@amampathak]

We Eating Goood today Boyzz!

[@SheepSZN]

More of these please awesome video

[@danviferahr1426]

I get not picking the round, but pat acting as if mega beedrill wasnt absolutely insane in single battles is something else

[@MrEKnight]

Matt - I just adore the hell outta you, dude 😂👏🏻

[@michaelrobbins1749]

pls do more best pokemon from region challenges

[@Agent-bw2nq]

Mega beedrill is the goat

[@Agent-bw2nq]

I would have loved seeing the New megas in this video. The ones that Dylan create on this channel.

[@pokeikeavisitor]

Fun fact : Swampert with scarf and + speed nature gives it a base speed of 115.5 making it 0.5 faster than mega ray!

[@Dusxio]

I love how fast the HP bars drop in this generation XD

[@Outfoxed_]

Swampert the G carrying the finals

[@EnterSamMan]

5:56 I don’t think he took a piss, bro just went through labor

[@Thatonegoose]

Dylan not picking up mega diancie and lopunny is nuts

[@czar17_28]

Why do people think Mega Diance isn’t that good? I’ve heard multiple Poketubers say that and I don’t get it when looking at Gen 6 Competitive.

[@Scythe_Williams]

It was good then, but now with Gen 9 nat dex (the only current thing on showdown where its allowed) there a much better megas that you can use

[@udhayasurya-s4n]

i believe due to its typing fairy and stell which is 4x weakness to stell mainly due to this reason

[@danviferahr1426]

​@udhayasurya-s4n this combined with the 3 or 4 megas that get bullet punch makes it a risk

[@hamdaantdm]

Many megas get access to steel type moves and they usually run it. Plus tbf diancies typing is not really to be desired.
