To be fair Froslass is based on a Yukionna a Yokai who's main thing is luring men into the icyest storms and freezing them to death and then consuming them

[@TekkamanSeraphim]

To further elaborate, there are actually dex entries that canonically paint Froslass as a killer. For instance(and this comes directly from Scarlet): When it finds humans or Pokémon it likes, it freezes them and takes them to its chilly den, where they become decorations. Not only does Froslass kill humans and Pokemon, she turns them into trophies.

[@ReturnOfSilence]

Meant to say this, concerning round five: Vinny's opinions of Spidops all track perfectly, but he went out and caught a Pokémon who would be best suited for a Mission: Impossible-style heist. The challenge was to find a petty thief, not a master thief, so you're looking for a punk, not a smooth criminal. Should've gone for a Scrafty; that versus Croagunk would have been a complete toss-up.

Love the crime Pokemon idea. It’s incredibly creative

[@spiritshadow8084]

Hey @patterrz just had an idea for a video like this one, it would be either go catch, or a randomized starter video. If it was go catch you would race around and catch a pokemon that best suits each type of pokeball. For example a teddyursa in a moon ball because of the crescent moon on both, then once all pokeballs have been used you build a team of 6 of them and battle. The random starters would function where you tell the other person what pokeball would best suit each pokemon, without telling them what the pokemon is. I think it'd be fun and would be something no one has done before. Love your videos keep up the great work!

[@woutdh8685]

this "then we battle" concept was so fun, i hope you make more of these different concepts!

[@Jig-nonymous]

Patt has the MOST creative "Then We Fights". I do agree that we need more original abilities. It would be closer to the actual competitive scene and just offer more variety to the typical randomizers.

[@brandongilligan1038]

I love the premise of having a competition that results in advantages/disadvantages. I hope you do it more

[@nathangamble125]

Case 1: Bombirdier attacks by dropping things; while they normally wouldn't pick up an adult human, they could hold a small child in their bib, or grip someone with their talons. Noivern attacks with ultrasonic waves and its fangs, and lacks any way of gripping a person effectivly in order to drop them. Hawlucha would have been a much better suspect, as it is able to wrestle and throw people effectively, and (at least in gen VI and VII) it learns the move sky drop, which is an attack based on dropping the opponent from a high place. Case 2: You say Weavile's not a killer. The pokédex says otherwise... _They travel in groups of four or five, leaving signs for one another on trees and rocks. They bring down their prey with coordinated attacks._ _They dwell in cold places. This Pokémon's main food source in Alola is Vulpix and Sandshrew, which they carefully divide among their group._ _One Weavile will trip a Sandshrew and flip it over, and then another Weavile will deal the finishing blow with its sharp claws._ _They attack their quarry in packs. Prey as large as Mamoswine easily fall to the teamwork of a group of Weavile._ This was the best decision in the history of court cases, possibly ever, some people say. The vote was rigged against us, even though we still won. We are going to ban every traitor who ever voted Gumshoos guilty in this horrible witch-hunt. Gumshoos has always been a true patriot of Paldea, and would never risk its national security. No-one loves Paldea as much as Gumshoos, it's true. Case 3: Annihilape will beat you up, but the only confirmed death as a result of its rage was itself, when it "evolved" from primeape; and even if it does kill someone it could likely be argued to be manslaughter or a crime of passion, rather than murder. Froslass' killing is premeditated murder (and with some slightly rapey implications, too). Case 4: Zangoose is the enforcer, and could even own the basement they work out of like Pat suggests, but there's no way Persian isn't the ringleader, or at least funding the operation. If you've read Lackadaisy (it's about cats running a crime ring from a café basement!), Zangoose is Freckle, and Persian is Mitzi. Case 5: Spidops is built for shoplifting, but it's not his style. Spidops would rather mug or pickpocket people than shoplift. Croagunk will take what he can get away with, but has a reputation to uphold, so doesn't want to attack people directly. _It rarely fights fairly, but that is strictly to ensure survival. It is popular as a mascot._ _A poison wielder with a dastardly personality. Despite such qualities, this species is afforded a measure of popularity due to its peculiar cry and comical features._ Case 6: Fidough could have set himself on fire to evolve and burned down the neighbourhood, but that would be negligence, not arson. Houndoom is the sort of Pokémon who would burn down someone's house out of spite or to assert dominance, which would be arson.

They are a few ghost and psychic types that would be criminals those are Hypno, Malamar, and Drifloon. Hypno because he likes to kidnapped people and he has the power to completely erase people's memories. Malamar because in the X & Y anime Malamar tired to control people and tried to take over the world. And then theirs Drifloon. Drifloon kidnapped small children to the afterlife and hates heavy children. Those are the most evil and the pokemon who probably committed the most crimes in the pokemon world besides team rocket and all of the other evil teams on the pokemon world and Volo from pokemon legions Arceus.
