Tried a different dynamic this time with 10 rounds instead of 6, predicting teams and sweaty battling with us in different calls! Lemme know what you think :) Also, Try CTRL today!!! ❤️
I love the segment where you explain why you made decisions for you party. I feel like it gives a nice buffer between the choices and battling. Makes it feel very smooth. Would love to see sweaty battles become, like, a once a week thing or something.
@@seamuspower8778 in what way? Said they're allowed any ability from the typing, dont remember them saying it *had* to be changed (most you would anyway because its just better to) but its a valid ability
Just came down here to say the same thing. The faster format The We Fights are great... but I *love* seeing the thought process behind team creation. Even if we don't have the full back and forth play by play in the battle, I'd love to see the team building recap in later videos
Team recap and more than 6 rounds is way better than the normal 6 rounds with no team recap. Love hearing what each others plan is, I wish we could see the teambuilding which is why I love the livestreams of this.
@@pepsi4life15If ur dopamine receptors are so fried that u can't go through out the entire video without scrolling through the comments then u deserve to be spoiled lil bro
I was happily surprised to see a 45 minute video! I know yall are worried about making them too long but for us who love your content the longer the video the more entertainment for us! please dont make this a one time thing keep them coming!
There are a lot of good options tbh. Could have also gone Prankster, Illusion, Levitate with Tera Electric for 0 weaknesses and immunity to Thunder Wave, Battle Armor to avoid crits. This is why I love this new format. You can do tons of cool and creative stuff.
I spent five minutes trying to figure out what the hell Pokemon he was talking about because I paused it. My first thought was "that's an impossible weakness", but I wasn't expecting him to just be WRONG, so I kept thinking on it.
I'm really shocked we didn't see pure power/huge power poliwrath, fur coat umbreon because of alolan persian, or simple volcarona as numel does have simple as an ability
@@akshayaggarwal5148not how the rules work. It's any ability of any pokemon that share any typing with it. He said at 17:50 that he got a volcanion with adaptability. Volcanion doesn't get adaptability and is the ONLY fire water type in the series, so how else would he put adaptability on it?
He wanted to run Drought Torkoal, which is why he didn't bring the Poliwrath, plus Poliwrath was weak to too many Pokemon on Dylan's team. I would even go Umbreon Levitate with Tera Electric. I think Volcarona Simple is more nasty than using Huge/Pure Power, so maybe Luke didn't want to be that sweaty.
I feel like the different calls every now and then, or if these videos are for something serious like a fun tournament or something. The banter in the battle is funny. I think the extra rounds are fun, but would be cool to see a delibird in one of these
I didn't see this coming, but I loved it! Makes team building so much more difficult for you guys and more fun to watch as you try to predict and cover your bases. Better luck next time Dylan
im LOVING the change to giving us a preview of ur team and ur thoughts going into to the match with ur strategy. ive been wanting that for SO SO SOOOOOOOO LONG. PLEASE KEEP DOING IT :)
Absolutely love the team recap part, as someone who's been watching Luke and Shady for around a decade I really enjoy seeing your thought process around building mons
I love the in depth feel this video has! Team recap and hearing both people's plans is so interesting. That being said, I really love the banter when youre in the same call so doing a bit of the old videos on the channel and a bit of the new every now and then would be a nice mix up!
I like the new dynamic and style, and I also like the no communication during the battle. It gives a little more of a competitive side to each match, and I thoroughly enjoy that.
I like the team building part of the format but i enjoy you talking to each other during the battle and the reactions to things while in the call together is fun to see.
LOOOOOOOVE seeing the team building thought process. Not so sure about the separate calls battling personally, but the team building section was great.
I loved this battle video. The only thing is, i wish yall would have been in call together during battle. I feel like that friendly banter is whats made "Then we fights" really popular.
As much as I love regular semi-whacky TWFs, it is refreshing to see a more standard competitive-ish battle again. It's amazing to me that Luke was able to pull it out even with all the terrible luck he had. It was a great battle!
8:14 gonna put the obligatory "You missed a shiny!" comment here: Despite how subtle and terrible it is, Cosmog is shiny. The only thing that changes is the cheeks turning blue to red.
Nice video! I just saw the last "Weakness guess" video and searched for anotherone expecting to find an older one and you just posted a new one!! I really like this new aproach vs the old one, I loved every bit of it from the extra rounds adding some variety and strategy to the team building, and letting us peek at the actual team building was just "Cheff's kiss". I hope you do more videos like this one, amazing content! Keep it going!
i love how everyone shits on calories when its just an energy term like high calories isnt that bad just means it got alot of energy doesnt rlly mean high in fat or so
Echoing a lot of others to say I loved the team recap and discussion of strategies! I also REALLY loved that you both kept talking through thoughts on strategies in the actual battle too. Really great episode, I hope we can see more like this one in the future!
When it comes to this new dynamic, I like both. Sometimes a team breakdown with commentary is fun, and sometimes just playing it fast and having laughs is fun. Both are good.
This format was a banger. Random abilities are fun, but this felt so much more exciting because you guys actually put thought into your team comps and didn't just copy smogon sets.
Really love this battle format so far. It's different from the usual videos, but having something more serious contrasts nicely with the rest. The one thing I'd want with it is a short segment after the battle in which you come back in the same call to discuss things with the benefit of hindsight.
I know you guys have to upload certain videos based on the algorithm but please do a battle style like this at least like once a month or once a week. I love these detailed battles it reminds me of shady's draft league which has also been amazing to watch.
The breakdown of why each team was made was very very interesting. I welcome that if it's gonna be a thing going forward, especially as I'm not familiar with competitive stuff so it gives me an insight I'd be otherwise oblivious to
The disrespect on ghost types this video is insane. Once again Oricorio being forgotten as a ghost/flying possibility and Luke saying there are no crazy pure ghosts, missing Calyrex Shadow Form 😂 What did ghosts do to these guys? 😂😂
I love the new format. Increasing the rounds to more than 6 allows for more mind games in the team building, and having the breakdown for each of the 'mons and the reasoning behind them makes for great content, gives a good view into the thoughts behind the builds, and also can give people ideas on how to run their own 'mons. :D I hope we get to see more content like this from you guys!
I love the running joke of just a pure water type in almost every round after the big calculation of what type combo would be weak to electric and grass.
Liked the new format a lot! Not being able to build your team knowing exactly what opponent brings, and the different perspectives instead of talking to each other was fun.
I actually really liked this longer form video. The 10 instead of 6 gives more chocies, qnd the segment where you showed off your thought process for each team member was nice. I'd like to see more of these!
Really digging this style of video. I hope Shady pulls through with his idea of creating his own draft league and getting the boys on board so more content like this can come from all of y'all.
Love this format! Kinda miss the fun banter and mind games, but I love the serious strategy talk! Unless you record voice-over together watching the battle footage and have a mix of strategy talk and joking around, but that would have the potential to make the videos too long. Either way, I love these then we fight videos and will definitely tune in any time the squad comes together! Keep up the great work guys!
Can we get more of this please? I love the team building process being included and how you cover all that could potentially happen? Could just be me but I really enjoy that side of it as much as the battle itself 😅
This format is really nice and I would love to see it again but I think doing it too often will take the magic out of it so I hope you don't do it too often but dont stop doing it either
Seeing y'all do sweating battle with full team recaps and 10 mons instead of 6 was a very interesting switch from the normal. I would be up for seeing more of this format
Tried a different dynamic this time with 10 rounds instead of 6, predicting teams and sweaty battling with us in different calls! Lemme know what you think :) Also, Try CTRL today!!! ❤️
I've always thought doing 8-10 rounds and then a best 2 of 3 with subs would be cool. I like how much more thinking and strategy goes into this!
Love the round idea but the banter in battle is funny either way is fun though
I love your videos with GBL. This is awesome! Thanks for another awesome video my dude!
CTRL im pressing it❤
If you do try CTRL definitely add the s'mores bars best thing there
"There are no other flying ghost types"
Oricorio once again forgotten.
The Oricorio disrespect is strong with these guys.
I was gonna say that 😂
Thats sv's fault for only using fire oricorio in the game before dlc
My immediate thought was, "What about Oricorio? That's my favorite form!"
sometimes i forget oricorio is a pokemon 😂
I love the segment where you explain why you made decisions for you party. I feel like it gives a nice buffer between the choices and battling. Makes it feel very smooth. Would love to see sweaty battles become, like, a once a week thing or something.
and no chatting between the battle actually allows both of them to concentrate and read each other's move, which is making it more intense
Luke fucked up on salazzles ability tho
@@seamuspower8778 in what way? Said they're allowed any ability from the typing, dont remember them saying it *had* to be changed (most you would anyway because its just better to) but its a valid ability
I wonder why he did not just give the ability illusion
Love the team recap after the selection was made. If you guys continue to do this would love to see it.

The fact that Luke won despite all the hax was pretty insane! I really enjoyed the more in-depth team breakdown as well.
Thanks for spoiling, hope your proud kid

@@pepsi4life15you're*
I have no idea why but this was the only comment showing when I started watching the video. Happened to glance down and spoilers. Fucking UA-cam.
😂
@@eepypilotYou forgot the “.” At the end of you’re comment.
I love how he didn’t know the Cosmog was shiny it’s awesome how unnoticeable it is
Red cheek noises
I was looking for someone who realized
I just realized that
This felt like a draft league battle and i LOVED it.
Agreed. I think it'd be awesome if the whole crew got together for a draft league style tournament amongst themselves.
Draft but Dylan doesn't know how to play draft cuz he only calculated for 6 of Luke's 10.
4:16 I like how Lukey was cooking very well but he was wrong the whole time, that moment was just too hilarious man 😂
He overcooked
I was happily surprised to see a 45 minute video! I know yall are worried about making them too long but for us who love your content the longer the video the more entertainment for us! please dont make this a one time thing keep them coming!
Seconded! This was AWESOME!
Well said I love the longer videos I work from home so I watch / listen to these videos to pass the time.
Love the more competitive versions of these, they’re a fun switch-up
4:15 I'm surprised that with all Luke's typing knowledge, it took him that long to break down one of the simplest ones 😅😅😂😂😂
Well it is because he knows so much about typing, that he searched too far for a simple answer, it often happens
I thought he was joking but nope just overthinking 💀
pure heat once again love the new dynamic with 10 rounds
foul play and intimidate is a crazy tech by luke, should've gone fur coat to not lower his damage output
He was cooking too long man
There are a lot of good options tbh. Could have also gone Prankster, Illusion, Levitate with Tera Electric for 0 weaknesses and immunity to Thunder Wave, Battle Armor to avoid crits. This is why I love this new format. You can do tons of cool and creative stuff.
@@ParadoX-os i meant crazy as in the strategy was bad because foul play's damage is lowered by your own intimidate
@@nolanyeemusic I know. And I mentioned actual good strategies.
he still won though guys lol
poor torracat weak to fire 😭
And no one noticed
I noticed also…
@@thegreencoconutwastaken they did notice???
@@thegreencoconutwastaken LITERALLY fucking 2 seconds after it they noticed it xD
I spent five minutes trying to figure out what the hell Pokemon he was talking about because I paused it. My first thought was "that's an impossible weakness", but I wasn't expecting him to just be WRONG, so I kept thinking on it.
this is kinda like a pokemon draft league type of video, love the more in depth picks
Legit this was probably the most enjoyable “then we fight” I’ve seen in a long while. Great concept! Would love to see more of these.
43:22 he knocked off your leftovers lol
The moment at 0:54 whoever edited that is SO REAL Luke is looking absolutely jacked whenever he stretches like that
I came to the comments just to see if anyone else mentioned that. It had me dying!
Everything about this, was amazing.
- The dynamic of 10 instead of 6
I'm really shocked we didn't see pure power/huge power poliwrath, fur coat umbreon because of alolan persian, or simple volcarona as numel does have simple as an ability
Simple volcarona would have been filth 💀
Abilities could only be taken from pokemon which are of same type. No fire/bug has simla nd no water/fighting has huge power
@@akshayaggarwal5148not how the rules work. It's any ability of any pokemon that share any typing with it. He said at 17:50 that he got a volcanion with adaptability. Volcanion doesn't get adaptability and is the ONLY fire water type in the series, so how else would he put adaptability on it?

Video title should be Plot armour swips 😂🔥
I feel like the different calls every now and then, or if these videos are for something serious like a fun tournament or something. The banter in the battle is funny. I think the extra rounds are fun, but would be cool to see a delibird in one of these
9:25 Luke's soundboard strikes again lol
I didn't see this coming, but I loved it! Makes team building so much more difficult for you guys and more fun to watch as you try to predict and cover your bases. Better luck next time Dylan
im LOVING the change to giving us a preview of ur team and ur thoughts going into to the match with ur strategy. ive been wanting that for SO SO SOOOOOOOO LONG. PLEASE KEEP DOING IT :)
Absolutely love the team recap part, as someone who's been watching Luke and Shady for around a decade I really enjoy seeing your thought process around building mons
Drop a like if you noticed the shiny Cosmog too
Nobody ever seems to notice it
LoL it's funny that they didn't realise the Shiny Cosmog. Yet they realise Landorus, even though it's hard to notice Landorus.
It easier tbh cuz normal landorud is orange or brown and shiny one is yellow or gold@@accousticalalanna290
Came here to see if anyone else noticed that too!
@@accousticalalanna290its not hard to notice the yellowish colour on lande-t
Seeing Luke overthink the water type is like when you try really hard to pull open a push door!
Against all odds, even with plot armour, somehow dylan lost
I love the in depth feel this video has! Team recap and hearing both people's plans is so interesting.
That being said, I really love the banter when youre in the same call so doing a bit of the old videos on the channel and a bit of the new every now and then would be a nice mix up!
Poor luke that rng was so bad for him
43:21 poison went through because he knocked off your leftovers
I liked the change in dynamic here. Also appreciated the dive into the team set ups too!
Love this format. Love the extra rounds and especially the part describing your team building processes. Looking forward to more of these.
I'm 100% sure that Cosmog was shiny. and Neither of them didnt even notice.
It was shiny. And honestly, I don't blame them for not noticing, the shiny is awful.
it's such a bad shiny that the only reason i KNEW was because i saw it in a "bad shiny" video
I like the new dynamic and style, and I also like the no communication during the battle. It gives a little more of a competitive side to each match, and I thoroughly enjoy that.
Love how Dylan kept saying that nobody runs archaludon special defensive, when that’s literally the most common EV spread on him
I like the team building part of the format but i enjoy you talking to each other during the battle and the reactions to things while in the call together is fun to see.
Whoever edited SpongeBob in well job sir/sirs.
Hi that was me.
LOOOOOOOVE seeing the team building thought process. Not so sure about the separate calls battling personally, but the team building section was great.
The game tried hard to make Luke lose with that RNG, but he simply said "Nah, I'm him."
Not the SpongeBob joke like a minute in perfectly encapsulating what we were all thinking 👀
I loved this battle video. The only thing is, i wish yall would have been in call together during battle. I feel like that friendly banter is whats made "Then we fights" really popular.
I don't .. I like to hear their thought process and predictions
Was lowkey hoping elektross would show up so itd be "this pokemon has no weaknesses..."
16:16 i guess fire beats fire then
Loved the team breakdown after the rounds. should keep this format.
What the SpongeBob doin’???
Love these longer Pokemon challenges
anyone notice luke saying tsareena as lurantis or is it just me
This feels like a practice video for an upcoming draft league 👀
Enamorus with Contrary and Dragon Ascent was a missed opportunity lol
SpongeBob licking the bicep is a little crazy
Bro you threw so hard, props to your friend for winning tho
As much as I love regular semi-whacky TWFs, it is refreshing to see a more standard competitive-ish battle again. It's amazing to me that Luke was able to pull it out even with all the terrible luck he had. It was a great battle!
This felt like a draft league style vid excluding the mon selecting bit.
8:14 gonna put the obligatory "You missed a shiny!" comment here:

i love how everyone shits on calories when its just an energy term
like high calories isnt that bad just means it got alot of energy doesnt rlly mean high in fat or so
I love this format, going more in-depth, showing off how much knowledge you have, really trying to outsmart your opponent. Amazing pacing too
Echoing a lot of others to say I loved the team recap and discussion of strategies! I also REALLY loved that you both kept talking through thoughts on strategies in the actual battle too. Really great episode, I hope we can see more like this one in the future!
I actually love this more thought-out fight and hearing the thought processes of each fighter without the other.
When it comes to this new dynamic, I like both. Sometimes a team breakdown with commentary is fun, and sometimes just playing it fast and having laughs is fun. Both are good.
This format was a banger. Random abilities are fun, but this felt so much more exciting because you guys actually put thought into your team comps and didn't just copy smogon sets.
fun fact, life orb and sheer force negates the damage from life orb, for a total of 69% (nice) extra damage.
Always fun when you two get together! 🤣 GG Boys!

It is SO much better when y'all take the battles seriously, please do more videos like this with the others as well. Great battle!
i love that you all are recapping your teams and explaining your reasons for doing everything.
This style with commentary was SO MUCH BETTER than the standard. Awesome.

Solo types are pretty hard to guess Unless it's a solo flying type.
Like many others, im a fan of the pre-battle team recap!
I love the running joke of just a pure water type in almost every round after the big calculation of what type combo would be weak to electric and grass.
Liked the new format a lot! Not being able to build your team knowing exactly what opponent brings, and the different perspectives instead of talking to each other was fun.
Love the new format for picking the teams and showing the team breakdowns!
I actually really liked this longer form video. The 10 instead of 6 gives more chocies, qnd the segment where you showed off your thought process for each team member was nice. I'd like to see more of these!
definitely like the direction taken with this video, a bit slower a the beginning that doesn’t attack you immediately, great vid
I really liked this long format. The way you explain your teams is a refreshment! I hope you keep doing it this way! Much love ❤
Really digging this style of video. I hope Shady pulls through with his idea of creating his own draft league and getting the boys on board so more content like this can come from all of y'all.
I love this new 10 round dynamic with the team breakdown before the battle! It's giving draft league, and I love it!
This format with Shady, please and thank you!
I love this longer format!
The more you play Pokémon, the less you know about Pokémon.
I absolutely love this format! And the set up it was amazing! Love you guys! I feel bad for Luke’s luck but he handled it so well and played so well
This was such a cool change of pace from the other then we fights, I love the more competitive feel and teambuilding stuff from you guys.
Love this format! Kinda miss the fun banter and mind games, but I love the serious strategy talk! Unless you record voice-over together watching the battle footage and have a mix of strategy talk and joking around, but that would have the potential to make the videos too long. Either way, I love these then we fight videos and will definitely tune in any time the squad comes together! Keep up the great work guys!
Idea for a video you have someone that has no idea about pokemon and have them choose your starters
I love the team break down and the more of an intense battle, I like the switch up, it's refreshing!
I love the team breakdowns
Can we get more of this please? I love the team building process being included and how you cover all that could potentially happen? Could just be me but I really enjoy that side of it as much as the battle itself 😅
man this just feels like a competetive battle like you're entering a tournament, I would love to see more content like this!
Luke's strategy is actually pretty interesting, and he reads pretty well. too bad the luck doesn't stands for him.
This format is really nice and I would love to see it again but I think doing it too often will take the magic out of it so I hope you don't do it too often but dont stop doing it either
I really line that you guys went into your reasoning for building the teams the way you did. It offers a lot of insight for newer competitive players
9:15 Oricorio:
Seeing y'all do sweating battle with full team recaps and 10 mons instead of 6 was a very interesting switch from the normal. I would be up for seeing more of this format
