I have a fun idea for a challenge. Could y’all please catch eight Pokemon of your choice that all have random abilities. Both of you also get to pick out the move sets after catching the Pokemon. Once you both acquire teams, read off each of your team members’ Pokedex entries. If the one being read to correctly identifies a Pokemon entry, he gets the option to force a trade without knowing the moveset of the identified Pokemon. The player who gets the identity correct is also able to pick out a custom ability for the traded Pokemon. Sabotaging some of your own team members is legal. Let’s say that the two leftover Pokemon with easy Pokédex entries are physical attackers like Machamp. You can rigg the entire moveset to be special or support moves. The Pokemon can’t be pseudo legends, legends, paradox, ultra beast, mythical or, starters to make it a bit more challenging.
You should go and look for a shiny and the first shiny you see you put on your team but you can’t pass on one pokemon. For each of those shinys you give one buff stat, ability, move, or typing.
24:07 is so funny to me. Dylan is Metagaming like crazy, thinking about every outcome, like that number flying meme - while Vinny on the contrary is like, imma just click that and hope for the best
This is the thing about them annoys me the most. Their career is built around Pokemon and they still lack so much basic information about Pokemon. Only Luke remembers almost everything. A few days back I watched a video Vinny vs Dobbs and they were surprised when oricorio's ability dancer popped. @@wyattgardner3552
More so the Kyurem Black being Fairy/Flying, from Zacian/Reshiram... >.> Reshiram's Fire/Dragon... not Flying. Though it's likely that just the card was wrong.
Ehh, Dylan said Fairy/Fire in the video, and I can understand with some of the paradox not remembering their exact typings (mainly the the Donphan and Volcarona paradoxes due to having both past and future variants). Mistakes happen, whether it's during the picking or when making sets and battling.
This is such a fun premise. You guys should do something very similar to this but its baby pokemon that can evolve either once or twice (randomized evolutions) but they have to keep their original picked typings
I mean, most people don't know that it makes moves used against the one with no guard also bypass the accuracy check, most people think it just makes the one with no guard bypass accuracy check
Vinny says “locked in like a locksmith” my immediate response was that’s a poor locksmith then.. Vinny two seconds later “we’re not gonna dive that deep into it” 😂
14:40 Dylan, I'm gonna advise you to revise that statement that implies the sibling dragons are mother and father to Calyrex Ice Rider, and instead recommend that Calyrex Ice Rider is the adoptive single father of the Latis out here trying his best to raise these kids up right
These 50 min videos are absolute gold, the longer the better. Also looking forwards to the subathon since im sitting at home recovering from surgery, perfect timing
Pat&Dylan: cant grow beards Luke&Tobin: grows some facial hair Frank: im unsure if he can grow one and just doesnt or cant grow facial hair Vinny&Shady: more hair than face below the eyes The group covers the entire facial spectrum
(If by chance you still need a few ideas for the Subathon, I have a few) Penalties based around anytime you forget to name/save/fail a catch in-game or lose a mon. Coin Toss/Dice Roll depending on the # on the dice you have to do that many reps. Monotype Ditto Run/soul-link Nuzlocke. Wheel of Metronome: Spin the wheel gain a plus or negative to stats/moves/item choice. In any case thanks for all fun & laughs! hyped for the subathon to kick off!
Fun fact, when you guys do the subathon it will be my birthday and what better than spending it with the family and then enjoying a good time watching you guys.
Idea for a new video: Choose your starter but it's stats are INVERTED! While this video swapped two stats, keeping the BST the same, this idea COMPLETELY INVERTS all 6 stats. If a pokemon has 10 HP, it will now have 190HP. If a mon has 140 Attack, it will now have 60 attack. And so on, and so forth. The closer to 100 the stat is, the less of an impact the inversion will have. But the further it is, the crazier the mon will get! This will take pokemon and turn them on their heads completely. Powerhouses become weak and little babies become BORKED out of their mind.
Vinny, your suppose to say “my hands are like Pokemon, they are rated E for everyone, and your gonna catch them all” appreciate you guys and keep up the hard work, and good luck on the streams
Video idea: Choose 1 pokemon and give 1 of its types and 1 move it learns to the 2nd pokemon and the other type and 1 other move it learns to the 3rd pokemon. Then you pick up those other 2 pokemon. Do this 4 times, choose the best 6 pokemon and then you fight! 🗡️
Love your videos! I always watch all the way through because they are so entertaining and you guys are a great content pair! Hope you keep creating more dope content! 😄
I bought the shaker cup and I love it!! I’ll be buying some of the flavors if I have any left over from paying my bills. Love these videos, keep up the great work!!!
Great Vid guys as always guys :D So, i have this picking idea that could be called "MID game" and it goes like this: Let's suppose that in round one you have in your screen: Marshtomp, Goomy and Zekrom... So that would be BSTs of 535, 600 and 680 (considering the fully evo forms) In this round you must pick Goomy/Goodra cause he have the MID BST of all three. Then comes a twist: You must give Marshtomp/Swampert or Zekrom to your opponent and the answer SHOULD be obvious, right? Swampert, i.e. you gave the pokémon with the lowest BST in the screen. But there's ANOTHER twist: Since in round 1 your opponent got the pokémon with the lowest BST, in round 2 he must have the one with the higher BST, then in round 3 the one with the lowest again, till both of you have 12 pokémon and all of them should be in at least one battle :D Sorry for the giant comment and btw, i'm glad Vinny lost this one cause i'm a Rabsca fan (one of the four)
I bought your shaker cup the moment I saw it. I wanna say I didn't even finish the video you first showed it on before I clicked and went to buy it. It's red and black which is gorgeous, and I love it. Plus it's based on Rayquaza which is my favorite legendary. How could I not?

If the one being read to correctly identifies a Pokemon entry, he gets the option to force a trade without knowing the moveset of the identified Pokemon.

The Pokemon can’t be pseudo legends, legends, paradox, ultra beast, mythical or, starters to make it a bit more challenging.
I know it's more effort but once again begging for you to go back to editing the (colour or style of) sprites when you do something like this, it makes it so much more immersive 🙌
It’s not as much as more work but the time it takes. 1 video with 12 custom designs & models takes about 2 months to get done. So I only do custom model work on United Plays because I post weekly here
I think a great TWF idea: Purchase pokeballs irl(few are made of plastics and all so available) I cant think of how you will decide pokemons cause my thoughts have few loop holes but it would be soo fun to watch you decide your mons from (meant to be) actual pokeball Edit: maybe buy miniature pokemons hide them in pokeballs shuffle them and let your opponent choose your mon (might have few loopholes but you guys will think of something great i am sure)
Vinnie gets Pixilate for his Fairy/Ghost type, still takes Fairy instead of Ghost for his custom STAB while also including a Normal move to be boosted by Pixilate. Gives a Pokémon that's already a Dragon-type naturally the Dragon type and then takes a Dragon move for the custom move instead of giving it its new STAB. And of course, gives out a Fire type when no Fire-types were on screen. Meanwhile Dylan out here with the double Freeze-Dry and showing White Kyurem's stats on Black Kyurem. Then he actually gets White Kyurem and takes the Flying type from Articuno instead of the Ice type.

When is the Inova Boss coming out?
I'm only mad that I didn't get CTRL sooner. I ordered the United Bundle at the beginning of the month and I'm hooked, continue being awesome dude
You should go and look for a shiny and the first shiny you see you put on your team but you can’t pass on one pokemon. For each of those shinys you give one buff stat, ability, move, or typing.
Sucks the smores have been sold out for months.
12:40 ... Me: WHERE DID HE PULL FIRE FROM?!
People always mess up Slitherwing's typing because it's red.
Vinny NOOOO! It’s Fighting 😭
DONT WORRY ABOUT IT
@jonathonmarkey9618 isn't it because Volcarona is fire type?
@ Me: WHERE DID HE PULL VOLCARONA FROM?!
30:57 “Dylan is literally a master baiter” is crazy
Vinny knew what he was saying lol
24:07 is so funny to me. Dylan is Metagaming like crazy, thinking about every outcome, like that number flying meme - while Vinny on the contrary is like, imma just click that and hope for the best
2:40 No way he says "I'm gonna turn around here and get my miraidon" then gets 2 dragon electric types and makes the Ho-Oh dragon electric
Yea like tf 😂 but fr tho if he took zekrom he would have had kyurem wht, blck and zeky !
And those two are the only other elec/dragon legendaries
And none of them were Miraidon.
Subathon gonna be ELECTRIC ⚡
Maybe you can learn typings beyond the first 151 mons
This is the thing about them annoys me the most. Their career is built around Pokemon and they still lack so much basic information about Pokemon. Only Luke remembers almost everything.
A few days back I watched a video Vinny vs Dobbs and they were surprised when oricorio's ability dancer popped. @@wyattgardner3552
31:48 Vinny calling Dylan, Shady is crazy 😂
I thought he said "aww sheet he" just really fast
Did Vinny take the fire type thinking that Slitherwing has that? Cos it don't have it XD
Same as the Flying type base shaymin
He might have been thinking Volcarona
More so the Kyurem Black being Fairy/Flying, from Zacian/Reshiram... >.> Reshiram's Fire/Dragon... not Flying. Though it's likely that just the card was wrong.
@ no Vinny said he was taking the Fire type from Slitherwing, he’s a Bug/Fighting type not a Bug/Fire type like it counterpart Volcarona
Ehh, Dylan said Fairy/Fire in the video, and I can understand with some of the paradox not remembering their exact typings (mainly the the Donphan and Volcarona paradoxes due to having both past and future variants). Mistakes happen, whether it's during the picking or when making sets and battling.
9:50 I hadn't noticed the two freeze drys I had noticed that the "fire" typing looked a bit odd.
lol same
The shamin also seems to now be pure flying…
Me too but also, those are kyurem white stats
It’s like that one dentist advertisement where the guy has a tooth missing which hides the shaved eyebrow
Yep same here.
16:00 My computer actually crashed as Vinny verbally malfunctioned lol. 🤣
gotta love that he could laugh it off. took it in stride like a champ
15:59 The look on Vinny's face when he got done stuttering was too good 😂
"got done" stuttering
🤣🤣
Nah, he buffered 😅
This is such a fun premise. You guys should do something very similar to this but its baby pokemon that can evolve either once or twice (randomized evolutions) but they have to keep their original picked typings
44:24 Imagine being afraid of hitting a 90 acc move with no guard active
I mean, most people don't know that it makes moves used against the one with no guard also bypass the accuracy check, most people think it just makes the one with no guard bypass accuracy check
And sometimes, even when you know, you just forget in the heat of the moment when it's on a Pokemon who doesn't normally have it haha @albedo2433
44:52 Kyogre has no guard, zen headbutt couldn’t have missed lmao
25:30 If only vinny had a ghost type... that would've been crazy if the necrozma was somehow immune to e-speed.
30:57 yes he is indeed a master baiter
That sound pretty sus 😂
Vinny: This Steel/Rock type is my win con against Arceus Espeed
Also Vinny: Repeatedly teras to ice
16:07 Im crying😂😂😂 rewatched vinny turning into popeye like 5 times, I love him!
46:47 "Clifford takes down god" sounds like the title of the coolest children's book ever!
Vinny says “locked in like a locksmith” my immediate response was that’s a poor locksmith then.. Vinny two seconds later “we’re not gonna dive that deep into it” 😂
19:57 the double "Freeze dry" in two Pokemon is literally a Joke from this video
Vinny picking groudon to be a fire type was epic
Especially because there wasn’t a fire type on his screen 😂 Slither Wing is bug fighting.
@slaps1455 the editor made a card saying Fairy/Flying previously.
Dylan saying Terapagos is weaker than other legendaries is WILD. Little bro is busted
9:49 "A Fairy and Fire type"? It's more like a Fairy and Flying Type XD
Which... doesn't make sense since Reshiram is Fire/Dragon so he just made the flying type up despite saying the right type when he selected it
44:30 dylan stressing about missing a move against a no guard mon💀
Vinny not giving his Rock/Steel type with eartheater a ghost Tera is one of the most dumbfounding things I’ve ever seen
Dylan talking strats before the battle and Vinny being Vinny is amazing 😂
vinny's literal flinch when he forgot volt absorb and clicked thunderbolt actually has me in tears its so funny
14:40 Dylan, I'm gonna advise you to revise that statement that implies the sibling dragons are mother and father to Calyrex Ice Rider, and instead recommend that Calyrex Ice Rider is the adoptive single father of the Latis out here trying his best to raise these kids up right
As soon as he said adoptive son, my mind went "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-"
These 50 min videos are absolute gold, the longer the better. Also looking forwards to the subathon since im sitting at home recovering from surgery, perfect timing
Pat&Dylan: cant grow beards
Luke&Tobin: grows some facial hair
Frank: im unsure if he can grow one and just doesnt or cant grow facial hair
Vinny&Shady: more hair than face below the eyes
The group covers the entire facial spectrum
17:40 Guys torch Vinny anyway he thought Slither Wing was Bug/Fire
Should have been fighting
Slither Wing should've been Bug Dragon
16:20 my man just glitched irl. Im in tears right now 😂
LMAO I immediately thought of Skip Bayless too when I heard the “ITS MY TURN” 😂 such a funny clip
(If by chance you still need a few ideas for the Subathon, I have a few) Penalties based around anytime you forget to name/save/fail a catch in-game or lose a mon.

30:55 “Dylan is literally a master baiter” - Vinny 2025
Dr mundo appreciation is finally here
41:17 love hearing that Master Duel song. Such a banger song. One of my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh soundtrack
Dylan +Vinny = Unhinged Comedy Gold 🎉😂 ❤
A sentence i never thought i’d hear: “CLIFFORD TAKES DOWN GOD?!” 46:45
Both of your banters in this video was my favorite in any video you’ve ever made. 😂
12:30 Oh, honey. That bug isn't Fire type
👍
3:07 Funny moment
16:20 Popeye the sailor man
30:57 Vinny🤨
37:15 He really gets called out for his shikamaru pose by vinny lmao
I absolutely love Vinny he makes the best banter! I'm laughing so hard I'm dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The skip comp is amazing 🤣🤣🤣🤣first thing that came to mind 14:45
LETS GOOOOOOO NEW VID🔥🔥🔥
You Guys Should Try Randomized Move Sets According To Type
14:00 Vinny crying over spilled milk
12:33 Quiver dancing Groundon? Vinny threw 😂
Ikr but the Vinny laugh shutdown
Also shouldn’t have gotten fire type since Slither wing is bug/fighting
@@forplaylistpurposes9941 true but that is vinny for you.
Or he could've gone fighting and gotten Victory Dance, which is objectively better for Groudon.
@RustyRed2804yeah I mean if Vinny wanted to play perfectly he could have tailwinds with hoopa with sheer cold K. And sweep
30:57 made me laugh so much
Decided to buy the United Bundle on CTRL today love the work you do Dylan so happy for you!
25:40
Don't have ghost timing
.
😅25:37 spoopy

I always enjoy a good Pokemon vid, UG is always one of my go to
Always makes my day seeing a new United video up to watch❤
18:22 firer ice has a quad weekness? Oh yeah rock
I was thinking something similar, “Grass / ice has a quad weakness? Oh yeah, fire.”
As a stuttering person I found that absolutely hilarious 17:03
Just a thought for a then we fight, loading up a randomized set of 3 starters on radical red with randomized abilities and choosing them that way 🤔
Vinny, your suppose to say “my hands are like Pokemon, they are rated E for everyone, and your gonna catch them all” appreciate you guys and keep up the hard work, and good luck on the streams
13:23 lol...i always ate lunch outside, by myself 😅
Video idea:
Choose 1 pokemon and give 1 of its types and 1 move it learns to the 2nd pokemon and the other type and 1 other move it learns to the 3rd pokemon. Then you pick up those other 2 pokemon. Do this 4 times, choose the best 6 pokemon and then you fight! 🗡️
20:30 Oh look, it is me!
Dylan uploaded on my birthday? Great way to start my day at work. 😁
I can never unsee Vinny pedaling at the desk
Love your videos! I always watch all the way through because they are so entertaining and you guys are a great content pair! Hope you keep creating more dope content! 😄
Thumbnails looking sick ngl 🔥
we need a podcast of these guys just yapping, the convoys between picking was so funny
Any time One Direction can make it into a UG video, you know its gonna be a good day!
I bought the shaker cup and I love it!! I’ll be buying some of the flavors if I have any left over from paying my bills. Love these videos, keep up the great work!!!

A united video on my birthday 🎂 🎉 couldn't be anymore happier.
Vinny Krabs wasn't on my 2025 bingo card, but I ain't mad

14:42 NOOO DYLAAAAAN THEY ARE SIBLIIIIIIIIIINGS 😭
First time buyer for ctrl. Can’t wait to try it. Love how the shaker cup looks
If this is the vibe all February, we're all winning. 14:15
Happy Saturday!!!! I can’t wait for the stream!!! Two of my favorite UA-camrs!
I love when you give an example of the kind of video you're doing pleade continue doing that
Kyurem? You mean the counter to God? The one that quad-resists Espeed? That Kyurem?
That Kyurem: i'mma tera ice gagagagagagaga
I know it's more effort but once again begging for you to go back to editing the (colour or style of) sprites when you do something like this, it makes it so much more immersive 🙌
It’s not as much as more work but the time it takes. 1 video with 12 custom designs & models takes about 2 months to get done. So I only do custom model work on United Plays because I post weekly here
Thanks for replying, understood! I'll keep an eye out on the other channel 😊
When the tism hits extra hard 😭 good Lordy
Super Hyped for the Subathon! Loved this vid, can't wait to see what nonsense you two get up to!
Another AgagagagagGREAT video guys!
I think a great TWF idea:
Purchase pokeballs irl(few are made of plastics and all so available)
I cant think of how you will decide pokemons cause my thoughts have few loop holes but it would be soo fun to watch you decide your mons from (meant to be) actual pokeball
Edit: maybe buy miniature pokemons hide them in pokeballs shuffle them and let your opponent choose your mon (might have few loopholes but you guys will think of something great i am sure)
This is a really gagagagagagagagood video 😂😂
happy for dylan that the CTRL relationship is going great
25:20 "and i dont have ghost on anybody" hovers over necrosma, wich is fairy/ghost
Vinny understands. The beard itchiness is REAL.
Lets go all 3 forms of my favorite pokemon kyurem in 1 battle!!! 🥳🎉
Hi Dylan hope you're having a great day
9:50 Dylan where did the fire typing go
30:56 HEYO!!!!!!!!!
Vinnie gets Pixilate for his Fairy/Ghost type, still takes Fairy instead of Ghost for his custom STAB while also including a Normal move to be boosted by Pixilate.
Gives a Pokémon that's already a Dragon-type naturally the Dragon type and then takes a Dragon move for the custom move instead of giving it its new STAB.
And of course, gives out a Fire type when no Fire-types were on screen.
Meanwhile Dylan out here with the double Freeze-Dry and showing White Kyurem's stats on Black Kyurem. Then he actually gets White Kyurem and takes the Flying type from Articuno instead of the Ice type.
2:25 Oh, it’s going to be THAT kind of video today… 😂
44:38 cant miss with no guard c:
23:18 Vinny talking about how much damage VinOnHorse/ShadyP did as if it wasn’t sus from jump that VOH outsped 😂
25:39 that fairy ghost necrozma sitting right there
