Choose Your Starter, And BUFF ITS STATS!

We randomized Pokemon our starters but we won't be able to choose them! Instead, our opponent will blindly choose our starter for us. After we both get a starter, we'll spin a wheel of stats, and whatever stat is lands on will be stripped from the unchosen starters and added it to the chosen one! After six rounds of wheel mercy, we'll build the best teams we can, and have some battles.

I'm curious if this is supposed to be a member only video. I hope I'm wrong but with it being a member video it's limiting the sponsor click potential. Keep on keeping on!

[@Selemodo]

Hey free video concept (you're welcome😜) choose your starter but you take their original stats and randomly put it on a different stat.

[@ravenzeal4848]

You guys should do this again but only use legendary stats on low-tier sleeper 'mon.

Love how Pat cheated in round 1 with buffing atk and not spatk, but still messed up even more with choosing the wrong ability

You cheated to buff yourself, but on the same pokemon, you also cheated to nerf yourself, so it all balanced out.

Devils Bargain Then We Fight Challenge: Choose a starter and don't tell the other. Tell the other what you would want like any ability (name it), new typing (name it), illegal move (name it) or a stat from one of the other starters (name the stat). The opponent tells you the downside you have to accept to get your chosen benefit. (Be creative as much as you like, but be aproportional to the benefit. Downside ideas: Specific Item to use; You choose the next Starter of theirs; Can't be fully evoilved or something other creative.) Then you decide, if you take the Devils Bargain or just use the starter as is.

[@DiamondWolf286]

That's actually not a bad idea that would be kind of fun to watch

[@danielostrowski856]

I enjoyed the sequence of - Shady: this is the worst thing I could have ever got Me: what is he talking about that’s the best possible option here Shady after team building: So it turns out I was totally wrong and this is great

[@rileyackison4495]

I just got to this and I’m sitting here thinking, wait blisseys only weakness is its lack of physical defense. Otherwise its tankiness is completely ridiculous. By upping defense you just make blissey better at its niche

[@Glacenair]

Big compliments to your Thumbnail artist, they have been looking absolutely insane lately. I really like this style

[@WonderGamer1999]

A fun idea I think would be that you and your opponent have the same randomizer. You both pick from the same group without telling the other. Can then give any ability to differentiate them and then see who can utilize the pokemon better when both players had the same choices.

[@whitemoncler]

Such a sucker for Nostalgia. Nothing made me smile more than Clawdia doing what she did best. thats my retired vet right there😪

[@SirKn1ght47]

Gotta say, the battles are great and all, but that tonal synchronization between the music and the “Don’t you want a rematch?” audio is just *_chef’s kiss_* It’s so aesthetically pleasing

[@giraffodil8608]

Gimmick idea: Take Out the Middleman. Rank your starters as Strongest - Mid - Weakest, then eliminate Mid. Your opponent blindly chooses for you (by location) so you're guaranteed to get either the best or the worst 'mon on your screen. Score or Suck. It's content!

[@kyungsobs]

[@DragonBAGnYA]

VIDEO IDEA: Custom States You choose your randomized starter, and you are able to rearrange their Base states. Meaning if you have a pokemon with a BST of 450 you can custom the stats along as it totally 450

[@phoenixmemes195]

Wait this sounds awesome

[@Tropicana07]

I love shady and his friends but 100% patterz is my #2 and these videos are GOLD. For me specifically, these are my two faves. I understand to each their own so I’m not saying this is better…but for me this is butter.❤

[@Gavriel96]

17:44 We didn’t get to the other Shady mons. Wonder what was fused. 👀

[@SanjuPM1]

yeah I was thinking the same..weird editing there

[@priestesslucy3299]

I literally rewound that section thinking I just missed it 😢

[@SnowLily06]

Yeah, no hate to the editor/s but the choice to blur the starter choices made absolutely no sense, and the fact that they were never shown at all takes away from the entire gimmick of the video by not letting us know what was fused.

[@leagueofjinx1831]

I would love to know what the other two were as well. I was hopping for some answers here in the comments.

[@pjanderson7762]

Same

[@palepants9475]

battle idea: *Wheel chooses 6 types, no duplicates. *Catch 6 mons in 20 minutes using each type once. *One masterball. *Failure to catch a full team in 20 minutes results in the next qualifier you see, and IV's reduced to 15. *Moves can be ANY possible to pick up in the actual game through level up, tutors, egg, TM's, etc.

[@themathiasP]

A cool variation would be that you choose a pokémon and then the other player can swap its stats. So you choose an Alakazam and Dylan says he wants to swap Attack with SPA. You could make it so that you can only swap 6 times and each time has to be a unique swap.

[@Hapsasa]

I love Shady seeing intimidate and instantly calling tinted lens with a confidence rarely seen

[@ItsQbiKS]

Idea: Randomized starters, alternate picks. But the base stat total of the first Pokèmon is set to the same as the second one. Fe. Player A picks a Giratina, Player B then picks Scizor. Giratinas base stat is then lowered to Scizors. Next round Player B choooses first. The adjusted base stat spread is determined by the player. Also the fully evolved base stat counts. Split-Evo you can choose one. This could make some good Pokèmon bad, and some bad ones really good. If the base stats of both pokemon happen to be equal, both players get to choose a custom ability for that Pokémon.

[@RustyRed2804]

Pat had the entire SwSh DLC on his screen Round 1 and Shady was just like, 'You know what? Alolan Graveler.' Also Pat turning down the Shell Smash on Masquerain was painful.

[@pasturple5662]

The backflip was insane, Pat

[@kinsmanumbras8783]

Think you could possibly do an all or nothing on stats? Like you get to increase one stat to max but its inverse would be switched around. Examples include: Hit like a truck Attack but wilt like a leaf Defense, Run like lightning Speed but have no endurance to keep up HP, and so on.

[@NatasWhite]

I dunno why but Pat’s excitement for ATK in the fifth round reminds me of that one video of the random dude dancing that everyone thought was Pat for awhile

[@chrisbuchanan9171]

I love these then we fight videos, they keep getting more and more creative... I just will never understand how they don't write down & double check what they need so they don't "cheat"

[@ryelize2113]

Right I am going to point out something. When LEVITATE came out in second fight, patters mentioned, "I just closed my eyes, and it happened." Either this is one massive coincidence, or that's a bloody good and obscure reference to "Hadoukens - Levitate" at about 50 seconds into the song you hear the lyrics "I just close my eyes and Levitate"

[@Otael]

It could be a fun idea to do a similar idea but with not fully evolved mons, but you combine ALL of their stats into being giant monsters

[@ethanoliveros7815]

video idea, both of you choose your own starter. The trick is that when you choose your mon, the person with the lower base stat starter gets a random buff and the higher base stat mon gets a random debuff

[@SilverMachiato]

Choose your starter by their signature moves. You look at a starter and tell the first move that comes to your mind. Choose your starter by their signature trainers. This might be tough to tell at the spot so you can do research to find a trainer.

[@randomnessocity]

I’d love to see this with all fully evolved, no legends/myths/UB/paradox, you pick one of three and must take 1 stat each from the other two to build your mon, any ability from the options.

[@J_L3687]

3:48 that call was awesome Shady P

[@ShoeFixers]

Concept: create the ULTIMATE random Pokémon, then we battle" Randomly pick left/middle/right. Use this Pokémon as body+moves (but don't fully evolve it). Then spin the wheel to pick a stat to change (or multiple if possible). Then spin the wheel for a value between 0-255. This can make garbage Pokémon amazing and broken Pokémon can become trash

[@goodestboi7692]

How about a tournament style video but: -Team building can be done using any previous video’s idea. -The rounds will be best of 3. -The winner of the matchup (after all rounds) gets to swap out ANY pokemon of their choice from their opponent *IF* they want to. -The losers will have to fight their way to get a chance at still getting to the finals by possibly using a team they didn’t have at the start -The winner of the losers rounds gets a shot at taking the #1 spot from the overall winner.

[@__noodles]

Not shady saying that ppl at GameFreak spend time on balancing when there are pokemons like incineroar miraidon or flutter mane 🤣

[@cyluvr]

shady getting super zany and creative with this one i love it!!

[@evelynnvernaz]

That Blissey is Dussy's child 🤣🤣🤣

[@matthewholloway3807]

Video idea! Picking starters and maxing/buffing their LOWEST stat only so their greatest weakness becomes their inevitable strength

[@JustinWPruett]

When the loser of battle one start out behind in battle two, but you know there’s 10+ minutes left in the video… COMEBACK CITY BACK, LET’S GO UNDERDOG!

[@stephenreilly2334]

I feel like Shady always gets a Blissey every other video lol. And I love it every time

[@lucascok3754]

New idea. Random starter but the opponent gives them a ability. The opponent can choose between the abilities: Truant, slow start, emercy exit, pure power, wonder guard and serene grace. 3 bad and 3 good. The opponent will not know what pokemon you choose.

[@TheLernaean]

Seeing sneasler do that to shady after the league run was just poetry lmfao

[@palepants9475]

I was confused. If the stat rolled was def, and the 2 not picked each had 50 def, would that set the picked pokemon's def at 100 or 100 + whatever its defense was?

[@d.columbia9603]

I think it would be fun to see a a vid where you can take your bst and redistribute the points. So if you don't use special attack you can re-allocate as you see fit.

[@GOATexp]

[@KuroRyuOokami]

[@Adora_Art]

[@thatpachirisuguy5861]

Pure comedy that not only does Pat cheat by giving his first mon physical attack instead of special attack, but then gives it the wrong ability that gives it a special attack boost instead of special attack (he should've given it As One-Chilling Neigh and not just Grim Neigh)

[@rebordinance]

Next time you should do a random number generator to choose a different starter and change the stats of you chosen starter to that Pokémons stats. For example you choose a groudon but role gives you the number of gardevoir now you have to build a groudon specially.
