correct the part where you are undermining the cheating, and include that he took home prize money. sponsorships and pride when he in reality was a dirty rotten cheater.
Very well researched video! One small note, the dream ball Raichu did not know the event move Endeavor, and had been obtained legitimately - unbeknownst to me, one of the parents had been hacked, which passed down the dream ball. The subject of your video has purposely tried to conflate this Raichu used in an unofficial online tournament with the event Raichu I used at Worlds 2016, which has resulted in a lot of confusion. Thanks for shining light on what’s been going on!
"My girlfriend broke up with me because im so angry about pokemon all the time" should be a wake up call buddy! You are piling up dirt just so you will have a hill to die on!
@@loudboxxlegit have had similar reactions from my name. It’s crazy how offended some people can be when they think you “baited” them into thinking you were something. I’m sorry I thought wolves were cool when I was 12 bro, I’d change my name but I’ve had this tag for so long it feels like it is my name.
Im so glad he reported all those Animal Crossing worlds. How can the people sleep at night when so many children decide to use cheats in a singleplayer game they legally purchased.
IIRC, during his time on AC:NH when he was reporting all those people who simply have star trees of destruction that would end all worlds, Verlis on his island had a very... Very, odd picture of the character Isabelle having a close up pantie shot on one of the flags on his island which will NO WAY will get approved officially by Nintendo and yet I will assume that he didn't get banned just for that stunt he did. Kind of funny that the person who despise people who hack is the one who engage in hacking as well and pushing everyone off the bridge but apparently he can do it because he's special. I hope his channel on YT get's deleted one day.
@@AlaskanHuzky Except this wasn't really anything bad. It was just people making some trees be prettier than usual, and it wasn't done maliciously or in offense/harassment to anyone. Only reason Verlisify reported them is because he loved getting off on being the "morally superior" gamer who sees any cheat/glitch/hack/exploit/etc. like someone calling someone a racist slur. He's had this moral superiority complex of his for years, and it's only one of the reasons everyone hates him in more than just the Pokémon community.
"Verlisify fails to expose any of these lies, and rambles borderline incoherently for over 20 minutes. Using words like "Fallacy" or calling his arguments bad. Even just inserting the word "philosophy" without expanding on any of it." You summed his entire personality up in such a succinct package.
Yeah, Verlisify still trying to make the Weakness Policy team cool while Wolfey is inventing the unbeatable Perish Song team feels like a newly written Greek comedy. 😂😂😂
I actually have to commend verlisfy. He was somehow able to get such a divided fan base like the Pokémon fandom to all collectively agree that he’s trash. Being that big of a dick is somewhat impressive.
@@technobladeleakedclips1827 Yeah, they've pretty much transitioned into "Gen fivers" as I call 'em now. All of the weird annoying stuff about genwunners except towards Gen 5 these days. Watch out, in a decade there will unironically be Gen 8ers.
My favorite Verlisify build from 10 years ago was a goodra with assault vest that used rain dance. For those not familiar with Pokémon assault vest is an item that gives you extra defense with the condition that you cant use status attacks like in this case rain dance
Doesn't matter if you like or hate the new Pokémon games Doesn't matter if you you prefer singles vs doubles Doesn't even matter if you think sleeping your opponent's whole team with Dark Void Smeargle is fair If you've been a Pokémon fan on the internet then we can all agree THAT MY WRIST IS SO STUPID THEY CALL IT VERLISIFY
@@xL0stKIlah If he's so great, why has he been rejected by every community he could possibly fit into? Why does his channel severely struggle to get views? The only group of people who still like Verlisify are fellow Karens who get off on hearing him say how other Pokemon players have been naughty boys and girls because they themselves are very unsuccessful and refuse to do anything about it
Verlis hates Wolfey because Wolfey represents everything he wishes he could be. A successful VGC player/Poketuber whose opinions and voice is respected and loved. Most of the Poketuber audience growing up with Verlis's bullshit (including me) just consider him irrelevant now. He can say the most crazy wildest shit and no one will bat an eye because he's that irrelevant and insignificant.
I didn’t even think of him in such a long time, I remember liking some of his videos back in the omega ruby days of playing ranked with different teams but the drama videos just drove me away. That dude should’ve just minded his own business and worked on himself instead of just tearing down everyone around him. He deserves to be where he is because he keeps digging his own grave instead of owning up to his bullshit. Anyways lol
@@Vbarbarian It's true though? It's been proven beyond any doubt that he has had cheated pokemon. He has also admitted to using hacked pokemon though he claims that he didn't know they were hacked (which is obviously bullshit but even if he was telling the truth it's not an excuse). He even argues that a bunch of things that are explicitly against the rules aren't cheating and they are things he has clearly done if you look at his pokemon he's used. He never addresses the claims against him though he just goes, "Ha that crazy guy everyone hates is lying about me again isn't that funny." And that works because verlisify is a cringe furry that no one wants to believe.
Dude there are so many times where I've been recommended a Pokemon video by Verlisify, been like "This looks like a helpful guide", then I see his name under the vid and nope out faster than a scarfed Regieleki
@@warlordofbritannia If it helps you feel better I learned about Regieleki at the same time the funny inflatable tubes Regitube meme showed up, so I thought Regieleki was the fake and Regitube was the real one. So at least you aren't both old and dumb enough to fall hook line sinker and entire rod for a hoax lmao
He's the entire reason why I installed block tube. I literally just wanted to get rid of him enough that I looked for a way to get rid of him in my search results and on my home page and recommends.
If Verlisify wasn't stuck in 2016, he could've hit it off as a lolcow by now. Honestly my favorite part of Verlis online is just seeing him pop up in the comments of channels you wouldn't expect like How To Cook That, still with the exact same talking points, and either getting no traction or people recognizing and shaming him. One time I was able to have a YT comment conversation with Verlis on a video where he was accusing _everyone_ in VGC of cheating, and I asked him why TPCI hadn't done anything about it if things were that obvious. I shit you not this dude verbatum said "Extreme corruption. Play Pokemon employees are all friends covering for each other and Tournament Organizers defend video game piracy. I'm pretty sure Gamefreak is unaware of the problems because JP Pokemon Company punishes cheating". In response, I brought up how the games have been consistantly introducing new methods of lowering the entry barrier, such as ways to far more easily get optimal stat points. To me, that implies that they are indeed aware of the incentive to gen your own stuff in. He simply retorted "No. They don't know about how corrupt competition is in the west". So basically, Verlisify is rocking the conspiracy theorist mindset, but for competitive Pokemon.
I got that video in my recommended, saw it was verlisify, and almost scrolled away, but I was too curious if he had changed in however many years since I last saw him. I'm pretty sure I saw your comment too, insane conspiracy theorist mindset he has. I tried asking someone in one of the other comments if there was proof of wolfey cheating, since they were adamant he had hacked pokemon, and that there was proof. They told me someone on Twitter confirmed it and I asked if they could direct me to the tweet, they stopped replying 💀. I was trying to be as respectful and neutral as possible, but as soon as I asked for proof they told me I was a wolfey defender or something, I can't quite remember. I was like, I just wanna see the definitive proof if it's there, and then silence, like ??? Thanks???
He is right that everyone is cheating and it’s just accepted. That’s why the changes you mentioned are being done. So that people don’t have to cheat to play with the Pokémon they want. He probably drinks water sometimes too, that doesn’t make hydration bad.
@@lordlyka68 the most recent video on the topic was the first I saw for him, I didn't like how rude he sounds on the video since it feels like he expects everyone to understand what he's talking about even before he explains it, and how he calls everyone a "loser" or "bad actors" if they slightly disagree. My example is that I asked as a genuine question (I even specified that) about if you could use bottle caps on a part of the video about gen 6, and he replied with "Wow, you know nothing about pokemon lmao", and the comments I've seen calling him out on those unecessarily rude replies, mysteriously dissapeared
@@csrjjsmpThe real-world equivalent of what Verlisify's been doing for nearly 10 years now would be yelling at someone for jaywalking, or a police officer pulling you over for barely going over the speed limit. The only people who like those sorts of fellows are people desperate for some sort of win in their lives
I remember years ago when Verlis was making Pokémon moveset videos where he recommended Body Slam on Feraligatr over Waterfall. I told him that waterfall was a way better option because it’s stab and it works with sheer force, plus it could also become stronger and cause flinch if you use Torrent. He told me that was absolutely ridiculous because you shouldn’t focus on inconsistent side effects. He then goes on to talk about how Body Slam has a chance for paralysis, effectively contradicting himself. Then he proceeds to delete some of his responses… told me all I needed to know about the guy.
@@sonofulti1337 Gotcha, I wouldn't really create a build where the ability didn't matter though. Builds should be catered to the pokemon and ability, that aside waterfall is still clearly the correct option for both (and realistically you shouldn't use torrent outside of gimmick builds because sheer force is really good). .
Smogon is so universally chill in the eyes of everybody that even Nintendo doesn't mind them having a BATTLE SIMULATOR online. Imagine that, Nintendo doesn't mind, NINTENDO.
Yeh no, Nintendo probably doesn't do anything because they know it would be a worthless endeavor to try shutting down Showdown, the simulator is open source and anyone can create a clone in a flash.
Yes but that doesn't change that smogon is trying all they can to not play pokemon. Anyting that they don't like they ban and that is just running away from what the game is, like can be shown by all their hatred of RNG in the game.
@@kintsuki99 you do realize that they ban Pokemon in the vgc and that specific moves will be changed from one generation to another as a means to balance the game. Like it's an alternative format, it's just a different means to play
How empty and joyless does a person's life have to be that they film themselves smugly reporting animal crossing players for something as innocuous as star fragment trees.
Just an fyi since you didn't know about this video coming, Joon does post updates about upcoming videos AND lets people suggest and vote (and no it's not a Patroen thing, it's in his UA-cam Community), and I believe this was a voted one, so check those out occasionally if you want to suggest or vote too.
My Fury Cutter Venusaur Is PROOF that I am Indeed the only honest poketuber to ever walk this planet. I'm never wrong, always rite, I have never click baited before so dislike! Oh wait I hide those.. 🎤drop Now where are those gen 10 leaks I can post myself but no one else can😊
My first thought when I saw this was you. I've seen your videos pop up since highschool and I remember getting suggested drama because of it. Seeing this pop up I was like oh jeeze is he beefing with someone else now? How long has it even been since the pimpnite arugments when you would literally stream hatching pokemon he would say were genned. I'm going on 25, With a job and having had a stroke and cannot play pokemon anymore easily I'm just like wow he is STILL going?! Even though I don't watch you nor many poketubers anymore but I wish you all the best man. Thanks for the entertainment all those years ago.
I'm a year older than you and have also been seeing verlis do all this for the past decade 😂😂😂 the derangement is crazy but it's still quite impressive he's stuck with it all this time
@@leftjoycon5287Lol it really is amazing. I wonder if younger pokemon fans only know him from the star fragment thing and wolfie. Hopefully he won't have any gen 10 drama. Cannot believe it has been three almost four gens since he started beefing with the community. Anyways I hope you have a wonderful holiday season man. We are old enough to not need this crap lmao.
“Verlisify is like the DSP of the Poke-VGC community. Except at least DSP has *some* shred of skill.” I don’t think even a Full Restore can heal that burn.
@@matthewworden6095 Not just DSP; he's definitely got both Boogie's level of narcissism and CWC's zealous devotion to lore (or what he deems to be "lore"). Man really is the biggest Pokemon lolcow.
I'm usually not into drama but Verlisify made it personal when he attacked my brother (who happens to be a content creator) for his autism. Verlisify has never been known to be a pleasant person but I've seen him as being less valuable than dirt from that point on.
So he doesn't hate smogon He just hates what they do and who they are This dude seems to love hearing himself talk, but never the words coming out of his mouth
Manipulators (bad ones, might I add) like to say that a lot. They think that by just saying they don’t “hate” something/someone it immediately absolves them of anyone accusing them of being unfair or rude towards said thing/person
@@mrroboshadow smogon does have some pretty disturbing origins… genuinely reccommend looking into it, I get having an alt Pokemon format, but they’ve been up to some pretty offensive behavior that shouldn’t be tolerated
I think Verlisify is just a contrarian for the sake of wanting to be the "underdog" in everything he does. I doubt he even cares about whatever subject he spouts opinions on the internet. Like in the video he is essentially just DSP
Yeah, Verlis honestly damages the anti-genning debate more than he helps it and the fact that he's by far the most outspoken doesn't help matters given how aggressive and awful he is
I don't think you can call a guy who wants to obsessively follow all rules a contrarian. He doesn't even understand why, he just knows he has to listen to rules.
@@justalurker3489 you might be right on the contrarian part but he's shown he doesn't follow the rules. He'll go at people for breaking said rules and then proceed to break them himself.
I swear I need a “I tried using only verlisify strategies to get to the top of the smogon ladder” video from someone. That would be peak entertainment.
Not mentioned, but the funniest drama he got into was getting mad at a popular youtuber PIMPNITE for hacking his mons. PIMPNITE didnt play on showdown, didnt go to official events, and didnt even use the official online ladder. Even if they did hack, thier damage to the community was minimal. But then PIMPNITE slams back that he did, indeed, legitimately obtained all his pokemon.
@@esralper00100% the first person I thought of too. Wasn't it even picked up by youtuber drama news channels too? I just remember being like dang pimpnite making headlines when he has done nothing wrong... better get a sub boost lol. Hard to believe that was back when I was in highschool too. It's insane how much energy this guy has to hate that this video didn't even cover AND that he is still going.
Tamashii has always been great. Her dedication and passion for Pokemon is almost obsessive, in a good way. You can tell she really loves the work she puts into her videos.
Verlis's comment is just a small part of the rampant sexism that surrounded Tama during the earlier Pokemon YT days. I'm happy she's continuing to create and with a lot more respect from the greater community.
Litterally tho. My jaw dropped when he slammed her like that. Always reminds me being a girl/women in these spaces is usually not always genuinely welcomed lol
@@amazinglyshookyep exactly what I mean. Im also a huge lifelong sonic fan and bro I just found out how much of that community hates women too 😭 Like Damn y'all how 😭
I find it kind of funny how he's probably right about competitive Pokemon being full of genning, but pretty much nobody actually cares because it's kind of dumb that the "legitimate" way to obtain a competitive team requires hours of tedious grinding and the genned Pokemon all have legal stats and movesets anyway. So he can't even catch Ws by being right.
While I do agree that the legitimate way is tedious, genning is still bad (even if the set itself is legal) because of all the time you're saving by doing it. The sooner you get your team together, the more time you have to practice using it and possibly make adjustments before the tournament. The players who play legitimately will still be at a disadvantage because they simply didn't have the time to practice as much. That being said, if you're not playing in a tournament, I say play however you want. Besides, even if Verlis himself ever used these arguments, he still wouldn't win it because of the way he would present them.
@@brantchristy3490 what you meant to say is "genning is even better because you actually get to train with the team you built instead of wasting weeks and having to spend tons of money on pokemon games trying to do it legitimately". If the company wasn't straight up hostile towards competitive play, genning wouldn't be needed. Nintendo is the way that it is, so genning is needed. Simple.
@@brantchristy3490 That's more of an issue with the fact that Pokemon was not built for competitive play. Even if genning didn't exist, players could still buy their teams from people willing to do the work for them and the effect would pretty much be the same. The solution isn't to punish genning, it's for GF to come up with a way for legitimate players to quickly build a team (or just have an in-house battle simulator for tournaments like they probably should've done in the first place)
@@Adze The former suggestion has already kind of happened. It's waaaaaay quicker to make a team today in SV compared to when i used to play in BW. Things like EVs, IVs, even shiny catching is streamlined now. I'd say I could make a full competitive team in a day in SV, but you'd have to give me a month back in the BW days. For the latter suggestion, are you Verlis in disguise or something? Because that is how the end of Smogon could happen. The reason Pokemon Shodown has existed over a decade without hiccups is they aren't encroaching on The Pokemon Company's games. The company very much knows of Showdown's existence, but doesn't care right now. However, they will suddenly care if they make an official simulator and they see a fanmade one exists that holds its own tournaments (similar to Nintendo taking down AM2R, a game that did everything right in terms of fan games, but got in the way of their official Metroid 2 Remake).
First time ever heard of this guy was back in 2020 over star fragment trees in ACNH. He outright encouraged his fan base to mass report people's islands for even having them. Dude was a total buzzkill! No wonder his girlfriend left him!
I never heard of him until i saw a short video maybe 2 months ago and didn't know he was a big wave of reason for the star tree ban and honestly that alone makes me think hes a douchebag.
While Verlis was reporting people on AC:NH, he also had Isabelle rear bottom that was covering with green panties was proudly display on his island flag while doing some mass reporting's for people who is objectively not doing shit to harm other people online. I can't make this stuff up even if I tried.
Another situation Verlisify insert himself in was the Pokemon art contest. About six months ago, someone used Ai (which already right there is bad enough because Ai ain’t “art”) but also the same person gotten six different slots in the finals. I don’t really have to explain why it’s considered cheating, but Verlisify decided to attack the artists who were rightfully upset and threw insults at them. You would think for someone who is so against cheating would agree and side with the actual artist, but that just shows one of the many examples as to why verlisify is a pos of a person.
With the HoodlumScrafty section, Its not HoodlumScrafty talking, its DuncanKneeDeep. The video is uploaded on HoodlumScrafty's (now HoodlumCallum, I believe) channel, though
Thanks for pointing that out, i was going crzay cause I've never watched Hoodlum Scarfty, but I was like "WTF I know hat voice" and I know Duncan. Literally was bugging me, lol,
Ah yes duncan the poketuber turned pushing a HARD liberal agenda. I bet something comes out on him in a few months, like worse that just harassment and all that.
He's been going after Nuzlocke creators lately because he views the recent trend of genning rare candies as a significant enough level of cheating to declare their runs 'invalid', as if anyone has the authority to tell someone their self imposed challange is invalid. Basically, between the rise of hyper difficulty rom hacks designed explicitly for Nuzlocking, and content creators wanting to reduce the burden of 'dead air' created by mindless grinding to level their pokemon, the use of infinte rare candies in nuzlocke challanges has become increasingly common. The justifications are pretty simple. Most nuzlocke challanges use level caps based on the levels of the next 'boss fight' (usually gym leaders). So even with infinte rare candies you are still held to those level caps. Removing grinding allows you to focus on the actually interesting part of the run, the battles. This is especially important for content creators are they and their audiance dont really want to sit there for hours on end watching them grind endlessly. Where this really compounds though is the high difficulty challange rom hacks designed to push nuzlocke challanges to the extreme. These rom hacks are often designed with the explicite expectiation that you are using infinite rare candies (many even build infinte rare candies into the game itself). This lets the creator add incredibly difficult battles that require you to tailor your team explicitly for that individual battle. These are rom hacks where you can't simply pick 6 pokemon and expect to win, even without the additional rules of a Nuzlocke challange. You are expected to maintain well over a full team of pokemon ready to be called up for any one battle. So, all these content creators are using infinte rare candies, the rom hack makers who are providing the games they are playing are designing them with infinte rare candies in mind, and the communities who watch these runs have all embraced the use of infinte rare candies. But Verlisfy insist that these content creators are cheaters and should be ostricised from the online pokemon community because their runs dont fit his incredibly narrow-minded traditionalist view of what a nuzlocke is. He litterally refers back to the OG nuzlocke comic as if it were some sort of immutable book of laws, rarher then acknowledging that nuzlocke as a concept has greatly evolved over time and, ultimately is nothing more then a self imposed ruleset that really can be handled however the individual sees fit. As many other nuzlocking content creators have said consistantly, it's your run and noone elses. Use whatever ruleset you think will make it the most fun for you.
i mean if you go by the logic of "candy makes it easier", it does not. it makes it faster - but actually harder. Experienced nuzlockers are too smart to lose a pokemon while grinding. They would never grind at a spot where there is a chance of a pokemon dieing, and would go to grinding level 2 rattatas if they had to - even it it would take a while. using candies is actually a mutual beneficial agreement for both content creators and viewers: the viewers get more palatable content because they can essentially skip the "2 hour grinding cutscene" between the interesting stuff. and for the challenge runners it actually becomes more challenging than without training, because rare candies = you get no evs, i.e. you have lower stats at the same level. which in turns also adds entertainment factor to viewers. so using candies is a mutual beneficial agreement that was made between creators and their audience.
@nihildwo4874 I'm 100% on board with the use of candies yeah (though I find I am mixed in whether I use them or not in my own personal runs, sometimes I like the mindless grinding).
If he's using the comic then I (while I can't speak for him) thank that Nuzdawg (at least that's his X/Twitch handle) who created the comic really doesn't care.
@@nihildwo4874 this reminds me of that one nuzlock where 8 content creators pass the save around. I forget specifically who uploaded it, but it had Cdawg VA, Ludwig, RTgame, but the key player in me brining this up was Smallant, who spent his entire play time EV training his Lucario (and shiny hunting lol) and even though he fully EV trained the location he still had to candy up, but he could have sat there and EXP grinded as well, maybe even got his free shiny Gyarados since they included a shiny clause. You know what else smallant did? He did a playthrough where he took no damage, in order to do this he spent hours grinding pokemon against super weak wild pokemon until he got to the daycare, where he spent hours rising his bike back and forth. Point is Smallant is proof that Grinding isn't hard, and gives advantages that candy doesn't. The only exception would be if time is a factor in your challenge. Like a speedrun.
He's just walking "old man yelling at clouds" meme, complaining things that nobody has cared about in a decade or not that much even when he was popular. A guy who peaked in high school and never grew past that era and mindset, yet still thinks he's the toughest guy of the town, a ghost town everyone of his peers abandoned after they graduated. It's laughable that he even thinks he has influence to turn people against other Poketubers when many of them receive literally dozens of times more views for their Pokemon content. He pulled +1M views frequently in 3DS era, now it's something like 2-20k per video. He has to completely delusional to think that he and his views represent any part of this community.
The fact that Verlisify caught his own contradiction in the middle of trying to go "NUH UHHHH!" Is peak comedy. Especially when his brain bluescreened. Look at his face, lmao.
😂 happy to see that him false copyright striking my video got added to the video. Verlis is so goofy and he threatened to sue me, so i told him to go for it. After 10 days with no lawsuit UA-cam was forced to give me back my video. Lol gg’s
Note that smogon ban stuff not just because it's more luck based, but also because of how centralized it is. If there is a pokemon so strong, that in order to fight it, you must bring 3 same mon each time with the same set, it reduce the team building possibilities by a lot. There is also the problem that if you have too many centralizing pokemons, you could end up in a meta where there is no way you can fight all of them, and so when you start a fight, you know you will just lose because of matchup.
@@GreyLeo are you saying same team or same pokemon set ? If it is the same team, it is a no, and it is especialy true if you compare to for example cases like Dracovish, where all team needed a fixed pokemon just because a pokemon was used in 30% of teams. It's not just that it forces a pokemon, but that it forces a pokemon even when not here. And if you talk about same set, it depends of the pokémon. Some pokémons like Gliscor always have the same set with minor variance and some other like landorus therian have vastly different sets.
Verlisify is a clown but Smogon actually has gone insane with Gen 9. I completely stopped playing OU because they banned literally everything fun. So there is legitimate grounds to criticize them. But not like this of course
I'm so excited this video got made, I commented on one of verlis's videos once pointing out that he had unfairly criticized another poketuber for "useless content" because he made a Pokémon theory video, I pointed out that his video talking about it was useless because all he did was scroll twitter for 6 minutes complaining. It ended up getting a lot of likes and he deleted the comment and banned me from commenting on his channel.
The best part about that? He calls himself an artist for using shitty AI generators and saying it beats out any artist that he paid for in the past. I wish I made that shit up.
Oh, yeah. I'm not 100% sure if you mentionned it, but another one of the people he attacked was the Nuzlocking fandom, such as Jan (A.K.A. "Pokemon Challenges" or "pChal"). Specifically, he called out Nuzlockers who used Rare Candies during a Nuzlocke as cheating, with the logic that it's possible to lose Pokemon while grinding normally against wild Pokemon as a risk that gets taken out by using Rare Candies to ignore it. Jan, meanwhile, basically answered back by saying that, if he needed to grind the normal way and by putting the Pokemon's survival first, he would just then go to a place with low leveled Pokemons and grind there, which would be boring and not fun to do, especially while streaming.
What bothers me about Verlis's claim of knowing VGC by just showing a trophy. I don't think he ever says what KIND of VGC competition he won it at. Because that's actually important if we're talking about credentials. For all we know, he could of won that at some random local where the skill ceiling, while it CAN be high it's still limited on the kind of competition you would find, and depending on the competition aren't as focused on what's considered meta. Local tournaments are the equivalent to training wheels to those who want to get into competitive. I might as well call myself a professional Smash Bros. player because I won a Dedede Amiibo at a local. While impressive, it's no where near as impressive as being able to say you won at competitions as large as Worlds. Where the skill ceiling is at it's highest. Wolfey at least can say he's won at Worlds which is a HUGE achievement.
I agree with you. I’ve been to a local every 2 weeks and most we get is $10 because it’s so little of us lol. But locals are more a training ground for those who take competitive serious. Let’s you try out different teams and knowing what can and won’t work. If he won at least a regional I wouldn’t scoff at it. But that trophy looks like it was made a week before and gave it to whoever won at that store. When he wins 10 regionals and a worlds then he can have credibility
@@Averagejon95 Absolutely. And yeah if it were at least a regionals then I could give it a pass there too. But we don't get any information on how he earned that trophy. And given how Verlis will beat around the bush when backed into a corner, it only shows his lack of confidence. I also say this as someone whose only had local experience and sometimes streams showdown when in the mood.
My brain has been so ruined by the internet I wondered to myself "Has he put the amiibo in a jar at least once for the meme?" Seriously though, there's also a possibility that some of people in the tournament he won weren't even taking it too seriously.
The trophy Verlis held up certainly didn't *look* official. I wouldn't be surprised if whatever "local" he attended for it was completely disconnected from the official circuit and didn't hand out Championship Points.
As someone with a B.A. in Philosophy, listening to Verlisify try to justify his hate against Wolfe gave me a phantom headache made of cringe. The incoherent rambling would made some of my professors wish for an early grave.
Small thing to add Verlisify openly admits he didn't finish highschool. According to his own words in a twitter post "I was so smart that the system gave my diploma in advance, I didnt even finish my classes" The guy is so up in his own ego that he just refuses to admit he couldnt even finish the basic education without slapping a '"I am better than" in a phrase. Also I think his brother has talked about how a burden and a disapointment he has become, Verlisify just can't seem to understand that he is the problem ruining his life.
I was the guy who was going back and fourth with him in that Twitter thread. Glad it got a lot of eyes. That was my mission the whole time. Just to get as much bs out of him as possible
@@Mookie12911 And you really did played him like a fiddle. Corse the dumb black/red wolf fell for the bait and can't realize that maybe something is up or trying to end the conversation early on to not dig himself into a whole but he did anyways. Soft cookies for you!
I remember at one point his brother claimed that their mom owed Verlis money or something, and Verlis cut off all contact with her for that. What a shitty thing to do...
if you go to the video "wolfey vgc is more of a fraud than i thought" i made a comment on there to which verlisify responded. they stopped responding after my last message which called all of the shit out because i had a video to point to. very happy to see another video is being made because every now and then i check in on the schmuck and its just the same ish over and over again.
3:28 "tornadus is banned, they make a lot of obscure bans" bro obscure? tornadus absolutely terrorized the entire scene in gen 5, to the point of being nerfed by game freak themselves
@LiamRockefeller-o5q oh, and it also got the entire mechanic of paralysis nerfed, with the speed drop going from 75% to 50%, not even to mention the accuracy nerf of thunder wave and swagger. absolute monster of a mon
Verlisify calls himself an artist because he uses an shitty Ai generator to make his "art" and says it beats other real artist out there. I wish I was making this up.
Verlisify made an entire video about me in 2017 when I was only 16 years old at the VGC World Championships😭 He literally just cannot mind his business at all.
I still remember his TemTem video he made that he had to remove due to backlash. He compared it to Pokémon saying it was a ripoff and slandered the game for having pronouns at the start of the game. And this was all when the game was in an open beta (I think).
Not sure if TemTem is any good or not, but one of the first things Pokemon games used to ask was "Are you a boy? Or a girl?". Asking for pronouns isn't that much different in my eyes. Surely there's more important talking points about the game, good or bad.
I’m sorry??? He was reporting random fun animal crossing worlds and insulting people with “they/them” pronouns,, while also complaining about bullying and wearing a dog collar???? Bro just doesn’t see the irony. People who hate others with they/them pronouns are /not/ on the side of furries who report bullying on children’s games lmao
His psychology is fascinating. It's like he has no empathy or grasp of social cues. His morality is entirely based around rules. To him, what makes a good person is not their personality or them not harming others, it's purely based on following the rules. And he sincerely believes that he is some sort of arbiter of the law and that makes him a better person. He straight up cannot grasp why people dislike him. "But I follow the rules! I'm a good guy! I stop the bad guys who break the rules!"
bugging me a little but the person talking at 25:18 is duncan, not scrafty. im kinda embarrassed how many of these poketubers i watched when this drama was going on i recognize so many of these videos lmao, ty for the nostalgia
@@bru9 Billy Mitchell at least achieved some results in his life. Mind you he cheated but hey in Verlisify's words, he's there to win, he'll use the tools he's given.
Adding on the 1/180,000 Galarian Moltres. The Owner is "Normie Girl", which is the name of Massive UA-camr Alpharad's Save file, as such, there is actual proof of this pokemon being caught as a part of a casual playthrough
If I remember from Wolfe’s response vid back in the day it wasn’t actually Alpharad, just someone else with the same trainer name he asked to get it before the tournament.
I remember Wolfe saying in his video that the Pokemon wasn't from Alpharad. Running the team's rental code through PkHex *does* reveal that Moltres had obscure characteristics unobtainable through normal gameplay, e. g. met location, but that obviously gives no competitive advantage and Wolfe had no idea it was genned since it was from a fan.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!! I'm so glad you made this video. I was a fan of him as a child until i saw the hate he spewed to not only the Pokemon community but Black people as well. It sucked as a kid but im glad i knew to stop watching him quickly
Omg the racism on top! Unsurprising crossover behavior for such a miserable seeming person. I'm jaded but sometimes I wish gamers can have bad opinions while not being so mindlessly prejudiced.
@ShouPow many of them choose to be overtly racist and actively enjoy making our lives harder. Let's be clear, though. It's ⚪️ gamers that are often the worst, like Verlisify
Don't forget that he's a transphobe while still being a "Straight furry" in a community that is basically apart of the LGBT+. He basically dug himself a grave and laying in it and waiting for the dirt to burry his sorry ass at this rate.
I used to watch his vids as a teen, and THAT was my introduction to competitive... yeah... I stopped not too long after all the bullshit he was spewing at other people. It wasn't what I wanted to watch, and it was nothing but drama for the sake of drama. His twitter is FULL of neo-nazi propaganda. Dude was doxxed multiple times, and no one decides to do us all a favor with that information...
Something else to note about smogon: the format for competitive pokemon uses double battles, but smogon’s fan format is for single battles. They ban and make rules bc gamefreak genuinely does not support the format of singles. That’s not a roast or anything, they just balance it for doubles.
@@BussiDestroyerthat’s a question we’ve been asking ourselfs for 16 years And it’s also probably why smogon exists and for a long time was more popular than vgc
@@BussiDestroyer Easy. It's a simpler format for casuals and children to go through. Singles doesn't get competitive attention because it wasn't designed for competitive players.
@@Big-Azumarill ive seen Pokeaim and other big players play 6v6 singles. good players get 100+ turn games easily and positioning seems way too important
15:36 Not him saying that Tamashi (now Tama Hero) never gonna have wholsome videos… That is quite literally all she has been doing since 2017… Has anyone seen her in depth reviews of pokemon leaf green, ruby and sapphire, diamond and pearl or collosseum… or even her ventures on how to beat the battle factory… They are some serious wholesome and relevant pokemon content
Holy shit, Verlisify? Good lord this is such a throwback..... Never forget when Shofu dropped "Verlisify" lmao I remember the apology video at 12:09 . If I recall correctly it was a short video where he talks about moving into a new apartment, apologizing for all the beef with Smogon, and wanting to turn a new leaf. I distinctly remember him showing the view outside his window (in the direction he is facing in the thumbnail). 28:40 IT'S HERE LMAO 🔥🔥🔥

Very well researched video! One small note, the dream ball Raichu did not know the event move Endeavor, and had been obtained legitimately - unbeknownst to me, one of the parents had been hacked, which passed down the dream ball. The subject of your video has purposely tried to conflate this Raichu used in an unofficial online tournament with the event Raichu I used at Worlds 2016, which has resulted in a lot of confusion.

Hey bud. Proud of you.
It's crazy I didn't like Wolfey 10 years ago, up until Verlisify. Then I hated Verlisify so much more that I didn't have enough hate to go around.
"My girlfriend broke up with me because im so angry about pokemon all the time" should be a wake up call buddy! You are piling up dirt just so you will have a hill to die on!

My headcanon is Verlisify's obsession with wolfey is 100% a playground crush because his name is Wolfe
Honestly that would be a way less sad reason for him to stalk wolfey.
Literally I thought his obsession with Wolfe was cause he thought Wolfe was also a furry then got mad when he wasn't
@@loudboxxlegit have had similar reactions from my name. It’s crazy how offended some people can be when they think you “baited” them into thinking you were something.

@@AceWolf456 I’m sorry you’ve had to experience that! But would not put it past Verlisify to act that way unfortunately
I came to the comments to see if anyone else was thinking the same thing ha ha
Im so glad he reported all those Animal Crossing worlds. How can the people sleep at night when so many children decide to use cheats in a singleplayer game they legally purchased.
It takes a special kind of cringe to reporting people in a game like animal crossing of all things lmfao
its like when adobson was blocking or arguing with random kids in miiverse.. stuff like this is just fun to witness from afar lol
IIRC, during his time on AC:NH when he was reporting all those people who simply have star trees of destruction that would end all worlds, Verlis on his island had a very...
Very, odd picture of the character Isabelle having a close up pantie shot on one of the flags on his island which will NO WAY will get approved officially by Nintendo and yet I will assume that he didn't get banned just for that stunt he did. Kind of funny that the person who despise people who hack is the one who engage in hacking as well and pushing everyone off the bridge but apparently he can do it because he's special. I hope his channel on YT get's deleted one day.
If they are cheating and breaking some rule that calls for being reported and punished, then they should be reported and punished.
@@AlaskanHuzky Except this wasn't really anything bad. It was just people making some trees be prettier than usual, and it wasn't done maliciously or in offense/harassment to anyone. Only reason Verlisify reported them is because he loved getting off on being the "morally superior" gamer who sees any cheat/glitch/hack/exploit/etc. like someone calling someone a racist slur. He's had this moral superiority complex of his for years, and it's only one of the reasons everyone hates him in more than just the Pokémon community.
"Verlisify fails to expose any of these lies, and rambles borderline incoherently for over 20 minutes. Using words like "Fallacy" or calling his arguments bad. Even just inserting the word "philosophy" without expanding on any of it."
You summed his entire personality up in such a succinct package.
From the response videos, the suggested videos tab has nothing but Sargon of Akkad in it. He's one of those Sargonites, his brain's broken
*the vast majority of internet beef
Verlisify beef with Wolfey is just him yelling at a wall while Wolfey's channel continues to grow lol
Yeah, Verlisify still trying to make the Weakness Policy team cool while Wolfey is inventing the unbeatable Perish Song team feels like a newly written Greek comedy. 😂😂😂

I actually have to commend verlisfy. He was somehow able to get such a divided fan base like the Pokémon fandom to all collectively agree that he’s trash. Being that big of a dick is somewhat impressive.
Ngl thats a impressive feat, not a good feat, but impressive none the less

Watch out, in a decade there will unironically be Gen 8ers.
My favorite Verlisify build from 10 years ago was a goodra with assault vest that used rain dance. For those not familiar with Pokémon assault vest is an item that gives you extra defense with the condition that you cant use status attacks like in this case rain dance
Absolutely dumb, I love it. That's hilarious

@@xL0stKIlah If he's so great, why has he been rejected by every community he could possibly fit into? Why does his channel severely struggle to get views? The only group of people who still like Verlisify are fellow Karens who get off on hearing him say how other Pokemon players have been naughty boys and girls because they themselves are very unsuccessful and refuse to do anything about it
Oof, he won one minor fan tournament cheesing evasion luck and he thinks he's the competitive pokemon authority.
Which is why he's so jealous of Wolfie, seriously it's like if I'll win 2 battles on Showdown and say I'm a vgc expert
so basically he's the DSP of pokemon?
@@vvindmills The Dillon Danis of pokemon
He was hard carried by lore
He's basically a furry flavored DSP
Verlis hates Wolfey because Wolfey represents everything he wishes he could be. A successful VGC player/Poketuber whose opinions and voice is respected and loved. Most of the Poketuber audience growing up with Verlis's bullshit (including me) just consider him irrelevant now. He can say the most crazy wildest shit and no one will bat an eye because he's that irrelevant and insignificant.
I didn’t even think of him in such a long time, I remember liking some of his videos back in the omega ruby days of playing ranked with different teams but the drama videos just drove me away.
That dude should’ve just minded his own business and worked on himself instead of just tearing down everyone around him. He deserves to be where he is because he keeps digging his own grave instead of owning up to his bullshit.
Anyways lol
Wolfey is a cheater. 100%.
Ok buddy. Sounds like it's past your bedtime but maybe you can watch a couple vers vids beforehand lmao @@bloodbarage
@@Vbarbarian It's true though? It's been proven beyond any doubt that he has had cheated pokemon. He has also admitted to using hacked pokemon though he claims that he didn't know they were hacked (which is obviously bullshit but even if he was telling the truth it's not an excuse). He even argues that a bunch of things that are explicitly against the rules aren't cheating and they are things he has clearly done if you look at his pokemon he's used. He never addresses the claims against him though he just goes, "Ha that crazy guy everyone hates is lying about me again isn't that funny." And that works because verlisify is a cringe furry that no one wants to believe.
@@bloodbarage who gives a fuck? nothing he's done has given him an unfair advantage in the battle
That's a name I didn't heard in a long while.
Smogon stole his girlfriend.
Man literally got cucked by the basement dwellers. Cant make this up.
BECAUSE SMOGON STOLE MY GIRLFRIEND, OK!?
What's funny is his gf actually never liked him and basically caved. After verlis had a "sexual awakening," you can basically put the pieces together
Smogon is garbage and ruined pokemon. Everything has a check in pokemon
@@xL0stKIlah how???
Dude there are so many times where I've been recommended a Pokemon video by Verlisify, been like "This looks like a helpful guide", then I see his name under the vid and nope out faster than a scarfed Regieleki
Same!
You know you’re old when people are referring to Pokemon you didn’t know existed.
@@warlordofbritannia If it helps you feel better I learned about Regieleki at the same time the funny inflatable tubes Regitube meme showed up, so I thought Regieleki was the fake and Regitube was the real one. So at least you aren't both old and dumb enough to fall hook line sinker and entire rod for a hoax lmao
He's the entire reason why I installed block tube. I literally just wanted to get rid of him enough that I looked for a way to get rid of him in my search results and on my home page and recommends.
Yea every time I saw his channel in my recommended I immediately removed it from my recommendation and pretend I never saw it lol
If Verlisify wasn't stuck in 2016, he could've hit it off as a lolcow by now. Honestly my favorite part of Verlis online is just seeing him pop up in the comments of channels you wouldn't expect like How To Cook That, still with the exact same talking points, and either getting no traction or people recognizing and shaming him.
One time I was able to have a YT comment conversation with Verlis on a video where he was accusing _everyone_ in VGC of cheating, and I asked him why TPCI hadn't done anything about it if things were that obvious. I shit you not this dude verbatum said "Extreme corruption. Play Pokemon employees are all friends covering for each other and Tournament Organizers defend video game piracy. I'm pretty sure Gamefreak is unaware of the problems because JP Pokemon Company punishes cheating".
In response, I brought up how the games have been consistantly introducing new methods of lowering the entry barrier, such as ways to far more easily get optimal stat points. To me, that implies that they are indeed aware of the incentive to gen your own stuff in. He simply retorted "No. They don't know about how corrupt competition is in the west".
So basically, Verlisify is rocking the conspiracy theorist mindset, but for competitive Pokemon.
I got that video in my recommended, saw it was verlisify, and almost scrolled away, but I was too curious if he had changed in however many years since I last saw him. I'm pretty sure I saw your comment too, insane conspiracy theorist mindset he has. I tried asking someone in one of the other comments if there was proof of wolfey cheating, since they were adamant he had hacked pokemon, and that there was proof. They told me someone on Twitter confirmed it and I asked if they could direct me to the tweet, they stopped replying 💀. I was trying to be as respectful and neutral as possible, but as soon as I asked for proof they told me I was a wolfey defender or something, I can't quite remember. I was like, I just wanna see the definitive proof if it's there, and then silence, like ??? Thanks???
He is right that everyone is cheating and it’s just accepted. That’s why the changes you mentioned are being done. So that people don’t have to cheat to play with the Pokémon they want. He probably drinks water sometimes too, that doesn’t make hydration bad.
@@lordlyka68 the most recent video on the topic was the first I saw for him, I didn't like how rude he sounds on the video since it feels like he expects everyone to understand what he's talking about even before he explains it, and how he calls everyone a "loser" or "bad actors" if they slightly disagree.
My example is that I asked as a genuine question (I even specified that) about if you could use bottle caps on a part of the video about gen 6, and he replied with "Wow, you know nothing about pokemon lmao", and the comments I've seen calling him out on those unecessarily rude replies, mysteriously dissapeared
@@csrjjsmp found the Verlisify defender
@@csrjjsmpThe real-world equivalent of what Verlisify's been doing for nearly 10 years now would be yelling at someone for jaywalking, or a police officer pulling you over for barely going over the speed limit. The only people who like those sorts of fellows are people desperate for some sort of win in their lives
I remember years ago when Verlis was making Pokémon moveset videos where he recommended Body Slam on Feraligatr over Waterfall. I told him that waterfall was a way better option because it’s stab and it works with sheer force, plus it could also become stronger and cause flinch if you use Torrent. He told me that was absolutely ridiculous because you shouldn’t focus on inconsistent side effects. He then goes on to talk about how Body Slam has a chance for paralysis, effectively contradicting himself. Then he proceeds to delete some of his responses… told me all I needed to know about the guy.
He probably called you an idiot. He calls people who disagree with him idiots.
@@sonofulti1337 He decries the rng of Waterfall meanwhile the only time in his life he has ever won at Pokemon was via an evasion Drifblim...
Wait, I thought it was sheer force, so NONE of the side effects would work.
@ I said that if the ability is set to Torrent, the side effect does work
@@sonofulti1337 Gotcha, I wouldn't really create a build where the ability didn't matter though. Builds should be catered to the pokemon and ability, that aside waterfall is still clearly the correct option for both (and realistically you shouldn't use torrent outside of gimmick builds because sheer force is really good). .
Smogon is so universally chill in the eyes of everybody that even Nintendo doesn't mind them having a BATTLE SIMULATOR online.
Imagine that, Nintendo doesn't mind, NINTENDO.
Smogon sucks ass but they're the only real meta around so they do a lot of dumb stuff, it's kind like the UA-cam or Twitch of Pokémon battling
Yeh no, Nintendo probably doesn't do anything because they know it would be a worthless endeavor to try shutting down Showdown, the simulator is open source and anyone can create a clone in a flash.
Yes but that doesn't change that smogon is trying all they can to not play pokemon.
Anyting that they don't like they ban and that is just running away from what the game is, like can be shown by all their hatred of RNG in the game.
@@kintsuki99 you do realize that they ban Pokemon in the vgc and that specific moves will be changed from one generation to another as a means to balance the game. Like it's an alternative format, it's just a different means to play
Showdown and smogon are technically separate btw. Pokemon showdown as a tool though has behind the scenes deals with Nintendo tho.
How empty and joyless does a person's life have to be that they film themselves smugly reporting animal crossing players for something as innocuous as star fragment trees.

He just hates what they do and who they are

As a Pokémon UA-camr, we’ve needed someone to make a solid video on this guy for a while. Thank you, Joon.
I find it kind of funny how he's probably right about competitive Pokemon being full of genning, but pretty much nobody actually cares because it's kind of dumb that the "legitimate" way to obtain a competitive team requires hours of tedious grinding and the genned Pokemon all have legal stats and movesets anyway. So he can't even catch Ws by being right.
While I do agree that the legitimate way is tedious, genning is still bad (even if the set itself is legal) because of all the time you're saving by doing it. The sooner you get your team together, the more time you have to practice using it and possibly make adjustments before the tournament. The players who play legitimately will still be at a disadvantage because they simply didn't have the time to practice as much.
That being said, if you're not playing in a tournament, I say play however you want. Besides, even if Verlis himself ever used these arguments, he still wouldn't win it because of the way he would present them.
@@brantchristy3490 what you meant to say is "genning is even better because you actually get to train with the team you built instead of wasting weeks and having to spend tons of money on pokemon games trying to do it legitimately". If the company wasn't straight up hostile towards competitive play, genning wouldn't be needed. Nintendo is the way that it is, so genning is needed. Simple.
@@brantchristy3490 That's more of an issue with the fact that Pokemon was not built for competitive play. Even if genning didn't exist, players could still buy their teams from people willing to do the work for them and the effect would pretty much be the same. The solution isn't to punish genning, it's for GF to come up with a way for legitimate players to quickly build a team (or just have an in-house battle simulator for tournaments like they probably should've done in the first place)
@@AdzeIt literally was built for competitive since the beginning. Idk where you got the idea that it never was, but it's wrong.
@@Adze The former suggestion has already kind of happened. It's waaaaaay quicker to make a team today in SV compared to when i used to play in BW. Things like EVs, IVs, even shiny catching is streamlined now. I'd say I could make a full competitive team in a day in SV, but you'd have to give me a month back in the BW days.
For the latter suggestion, are you Verlis in disguise or something? Because that is how the end of Smogon could happen. The reason Pokemon Shodown has existed over a decade without hiccups is they aren't encroaching on The Pokemon Company's games. The company very much knows of Showdown's existence, but doesn't care right now. However, they will suddenly care if they make an official simulator and they see a fanmade one exists that holds its own tournaments (similar to Nintendo taking down AM2R, a game that did everything right in terms of fan games, but got in the way of their official Metroid 2 Remake).
First time ever heard of this guy was back in 2020 over star fragment trees in ACNH. He outright encouraged his fan base to mass report people's islands for even having them. Dude was a total buzzkill! No wonder his girlfriend left him!
I never heard of him until i saw a short video maybe 2 months ago and didn't know he was a big wave of reason for the star tree ban and honestly that alone makes me think hes a douchebag.
While Verlis was reporting people on AC:NH, he also had Isabelle rear bottom that was covering with green panties was proudly display on his island flag while doing some mass reporting's for people who is objectively not doing shit to harm other people online. I can't make this stuff up even if I tried.
42:00 "the most honest and real Poketuber" That is a flag redder than his fursona's hair. I just rewatched the Quantum TV doc last night too.
onision also called himself "the most honest youtuber" and we all know how that went....
When he said that my mind immediately went to Chris-Chan saying "True and honest".
@@HardcoreHeely
I was gonna say, lmao. The moment I heard him say that, I just said to myself "Hello again, Onision".
Verlisify is jealous of Wolfey because his real name is Wolfe.
It's theorized that Verlis secretly loves Wolfey _because_ of that fact
Another situation Verlisify insert himself in was the Pokemon art contest. About six months ago, someone used Ai (which already right there is bad enough because Ai ain’t “art”) but also the same person gotten six different slots in the finals. I don’t really have to explain why it’s considered cheating, but Verlisify decided to attack the artists who were rightfully upset and threw insults at them. You would think for someone who is so against cheating would agree and side with the actual artist, but that just shows one of the many examples as to why verlisify is a pos of a person.
man wears a dog collar in every video, but pronouns in bio is "too cringe" for him?
This dude really is all over the place.
With the HoodlumScrafty section, Its not HoodlumScrafty talking, its DuncanKneeDeep. The video is uploaded on HoodlumScrafty's (now HoodlumCallum, I believe) channel, though
Thanks for pointing that out, i was going crzay cause I've never watched Hoodlum Scarfty, but I was like "WTF I know hat voice" and I know Duncan.
Literally was bugging me, lol,
If i remember, the video was always on HoodlumCallums channel since he had a bigger fanbase than Duncan's. So i can understand the confusion
Ah yes duncan the poketuber turned pushing a HARD liberal agenda. I bet something comes out on him in a few months, like worse that just harassment and all that.
Duncan is a creep too. Dude has like autistic levels of pushing a HYPER liberal agenda.
Duncan has his own issues too just pointing that out.
He's been going after Nuzlocke creators lately because he views the recent trend of genning rare candies as a significant enough level of cheating to declare their runs 'invalid', as if anyone has the authority to tell someone their self imposed challange is invalid.
Basically, between the rise of hyper difficulty rom hacks designed explicitly for Nuzlocking, and content creators wanting to reduce the burden of 'dead air' created by mindless grinding to level their pokemon, the use of infinte rare candies in nuzlocke challanges has become increasingly common.
The justifications are pretty simple. Most nuzlocke challanges use level caps based on the levels of the next 'boss fight' (usually gym leaders). So even with infinte rare candies you are still held to those level caps. Removing grinding allows you to focus on the actually interesting part of the run, the battles. This is especially important for content creators are they and their audiance dont really want to sit there for hours on end watching them grind endlessly.
Where this really compounds though is the high difficulty challange rom hacks designed to push nuzlocke challanges to the extreme. These rom hacks are often designed with the explicite expectiation that you are using infinite rare candies (many even build infinte rare candies into the game itself). This lets the creator add incredibly difficult battles that require you to tailor your team explicitly for that individual battle. These are rom hacks where you can't simply pick 6 pokemon and expect to win, even without the additional rules of a Nuzlocke challange. You are expected to maintain well over a full team of pokemon ready to be called up for any one battle.
So, all these content creators are using infinte rare candies, the rom hack makers who are providing the games they are playing are designing them with infinte rare candies in mind, and the communities who watch these runs have all embraced the use of infinte rare candies.
But Verlisfy insist that these content creators are cheaters and should be ostricised from the online pokemon community because their runs dont fit his incredibly narrow-minded traditionalist view of what a nuzlocke is. He litterally refers back to the OG nuzlocke comic as if it were some sort of immutable book of laws, rarher then acknowledging that nuzlocke as a concept has greatly evolved over time and, ultimately is nothing more then a self imposed ruleset that really can be handled however the individual sees fit.
As many other nuzlocking content creators have said consistantly, it's your run and noone elses. Use whatever ruleset you think will make it the most fun for you.
i mean if you go by the logic of "candy makes it easier", it does not. it makes it faster - but actually harder. Experienced nuzlockers are too smart to lose a pokemon while grinding. They would never grind at a spot where there is a chance of a pokemon dieing, and would go to grinding level 2 rattatas if they had to - even it it would take a while.
using candies is actually a mutual beneficial agreement for both content creators and viewers:
the viewers get more palatable content because they can essentially skip the "2 hour grinding cutscene" between the interesting stuff. and for the challenge runners it actually becomes more challenging than without training, because rare candies = you get no evs, i.e. you have lower stats at the same level. which in turns also adds entertainment factor to viewers.
so using candies is a mutual beneficial agreement that was made between creators and their audience.
@nihildwo4874 I'm 100% on board with the use of candies yeah (though I find I am mixed in whether I use them or not in my own personal runs, sometimes I like the mindless grinding).
If he's using the comic then I (while I can't speak for him) thank that Nuzdawg (at least that's his X/Twitch handle) who created the comic really doesn't care.
@@nihildwo4874 this reminds me of that one nuzlock where 8 content creators pass the save around. I forget specifically who uploaded it, but it had Cdawg VA, Ludwig, RTgame, but the key player in me brining this up was Smallant, who spent his entire play time EV training his Lucario (and shiny hunting lol) and even though he fully EV trained the location he still had to candy up, but he could have sat there and EXP grinded as well, maybe even got his free shiny Gyarados since they included a shiny clause.
You know what else smallant did? He did a playthrough where he took no damage, in order to do this he spent hours grinding pokemon against super weak wild pokemon until he got to the daycare, where he spent hours rising his bike back and forth.
Point is Smallant is proof that Grinding isn't hard, and gives advantages that candy doesn't.
The only exception would be if time is a factor in your challenge. Like a speedrun.
He's just walking "old man yelling at clouds" meme, complaining things that nobody has cared about in a decade or not that much even when he was popular. A guy who peaked in high school and never grew past that era and mindset, yet still thinks he's the toughest guy of the town, a ghost town everyone of his peers abandoned after they graduated. It's laughable that he even thinks he has influence to turn people against other Poketubers when many of them receive literally dozens of times more views for their Pokemon content. He pulled +1M views frequently in 3DS era, now it's something like 2-20k per video. He has to completely delusional to think that he and his views represent any part of this community.
The fact that Verlisify caught his own contradiction in the middle of trying to go "NUH UHHHH!" Is peak comedy. Especially when his brain bluescreened. Look at his face, lmao.
And this dude also tried to creep his sorry-ass into the One Piece community.
Luckily he was met with an overwhelming unanimous rejection.
Something something common enemy.
Oh? What happened there?
😂 happy to see that him false copyright striking my video got added to the video.
Verlis is so goofy and he threatened to sue me, so i told him to go for it. After 10 days with no lawsuit UA-cam was forced to give me back my video.
Lol gg’s
I love how he calls out genned pokemon for cutting corners and laziness... then goes and fanboys for AI art.
why am I not fuckin surprised.
I refuse to even call it art, because it's not art
AI art is art in the same way the lion king remake and prequel is 'live action': being crude and vastly inferior attempts to mimic the real thing
He blocked me on his new account on Twitter without me even interacting with him because I’m against AI art.
I'll never understand people dying on these kinda hills...nfts, ai, corporations...for what?
It's like he's addicted to losing, probably cause he can whine and get some views off of it. Sad creature.
I always hated how Verlisify blamed Etika's fans for his suicide.
This is the only time he was right though. Etikas fanbase being filled with children, wokists, and fake gamers destroyed etikas will to live
No that can't be real
@@Reddroast oh but it is. You can probably still find it through a community post.
@@penguinman2233 HE WHAT?!?!?
Ain't no way
Note that smogon ban stuff not just because it's more luck based, but also because of how centralized it is. If there is a pokemon so strong, that in order to fight it, you must bring 3 same mon each time with the same set, it reduce the team building possibilities by a lot. There is also the problem that if you have too many centralizing pokemons, you could end up in a meta where there is no way you can fight all of them, and so when you start a fight, you know you will just lose because of matchup.
It doesn't matter because everyone pretty much uses the same sets on Smogon
@@GreyLeo are you saying same team or same pokemon set ? If it is the same team, it is a no, and it is especialy true if you compare to for example cases like Dracovish, where all team needed a fixed pokemon just because a pokemon was used in 30% of teams. It's not just that it forces a pokemon, but that it forces a pokemon even when not here. And if you talk about same set, it depends of the pokémon. Some pokémons like Gliscor always have the same set with minor variance and some other like landorus therian have vastly different sets.

I'm so excited this video got made, I commented on one of verlis's videos once pointing out that he had unfairly criticized another poketuber for "useless content" because he made a Pokémon theory video, I pointed out that his video talking about it was useless because all he did was scroll twitter for 6 minutes complaining. It ended up getting a lot of likes and he deleted the comment and banned me from commenting on his channel.
Hey btw, the guy you said was Hoodlum Scrafty is actually his friend DuncanKneeDeep, Callum (scrafty) is Scottish and talks a bit slower.
He goes by Duncancantdie now and his channel has been on hiatus since he got involved in and attacked due to his sociopolitical content shift
This video makes me want to swords dance, then hyper beam a ghost-type pokemon.

The best part about that? He calls himself an artist for using shitty AI generators and saying it beats out any artist that he paid for in the past.

Oh, yeah. I'm not 100% sure if you mentionned it, but another one of the people he attacked was the Nuzlocking fandom, such as Jan (A.K.A. "Pokemon Challenges" or "pChal"). Specifically, he called out Nuzlockers who used Rare Candies during a Nuzlocke as cheating, with the logic that it's possible to lose Pokemon while grinding normally against wild Pokemon as a risk that gets taken out by using Rare Candies to ignore it.
Jan, meanwhile, basically answered back by saying that, if he needed to grind the normal way and by putting the Pokemon's survival first, he would just then go to a place with low leveled Pokemons and grind there, which would be boring and not fun to do, especially while streaming.
What bothers me about Verlis's claim of knowing VGC by just showing a trophy. I don't think he ever says what KIND of VGC competition he won it at. Because that's actually important if we're talking about credentials. For all we know, he could of won that at some random local where the skill ceiling, while it CAN be high it's still limited on the kind of competition you would find, and depending on the competition aren't as focused on what's considered meta. Local tournaments are the equivalent to training wheels to those who want to get into competitive. I might as well call myself a professional Smash Bros. player because I won a Dedede Amiibo at a local. While impressive, it's no where near as impressive as being able to say you won at competitions as large as Worlds. Where the skill ceiling is at it's highest. Wolfey at least can say he's won at Worlds which is a HUGE achievement.
I agree with you. I’ve been to a local every 2 weeks and most we get is $10 because it’s so little of us lol. But locals are more a training ground for those who take competitive serious. Let’s you try out different teams and knowing what can and won’t work. If he won at least a regional I wouldn’t scoff at it. But that trophy looks like it was made a week before and gave it to whoever won at that store. When he wins 10 regionals and a worlds then he can have credibility
@@Averagejon95 Absolutely. And yeah if it were at least a regionals then I could give it a pass there too. But we don't get any information on how he earned that trophy. And given how Verlis will beat around the bush when backed into a corner, it only shows his lack of confidence.
I also say this as someone whose only had local experience and sometimes streams showdown when in the mood.
My brain has been so ruined by the internet I wondered to myself "Has he put the amiibo in a jar at least once for the meme?"
Seriously though, there's also a possibility that some of people in the tournament he won weren't even taking it too seriously.
The trophy Verlis held up certainly didn't *look* official. I wouldn't be surprised if whatever "local" he attended for it was completely disconnected from the official circuit and didn't hand out Championship Points.
@@jj_colombia97 No but I did use the amiibo as a flex towards someone who got beyond salty over practice matches if that counts for anything.

Small thing to add
Verlisify openly admits he didn't finish highschool.
According to his own words in a twitter post "I was so smart that the system gave my diploma in advance, I didnt even finish my classes"
The guy is so up in his own ego that he just refuses to admit he couldnt even finish the basic education without slapping a '"I am better than" in a phrase.

Sad.
I still remember his TemTem video he made that he had to remove due to backlash. He compared it to Pokémon saying it was a ripoff and slandered the game for having pronouns at the start of the game. And this was all when the game was in an open beta (I think).
Tem tem is objectively just wokemon. He was right to shit on it
I'd wager that Verlisify is all about pronouns nowadays, though.
Not sure if TemTem is any good or not, but one of the first things Pokemon games used to ask was "Are you a boy? Or a girl?". Asking for pronouns isn't that much different in my eyes. Surely there's more important talking points about the game, good or bad.

His psychology is fascinating. It's like he has no empathy or grasp of social cues. His morality is entirely based around rules.

I stop the bad guys who break the rules!"

Adding on the 1/180,000 Galarian Moltres. The Owner is "Normie Girl", which is the name of Massive UA-camr Alpharad's Save file, as such, there is actual proof of this pokemon being caught as a part of a casual playthrough
If I remember from Wolfe’s response vid back in the day it wasn’t actually Alpharad, just someone else with the same trainer name he asked to get it before the tournament.
I remember Wolfe saying in his video that the Pokemon wasn't from Alpharad. Running the team's rental code through PkHex *does* reveal that Moltres had obscure characteristics unobtainable through normal gameplay, e. g. met location, but that obviously gives no competitive advantage and Wolfe had no idea it was genned since it was from a fan.
how does that logically follow

Omg the racism on top! Unsurprising crossover behavior for such a miserable seeming person. I'm jaded but sometimes I wish gamers can have bad opinions while not being so mindlessly prejudiced.
@ShouPow many of them choose to be overtly racist and actively enjoy making our lives harder. Let's be clear, though. It's ⚪️ gamers that are often the worst, like Verlisify
Don't forget that he's a transphobe while still being a "Straight furry" in a community that is basically apart of the LGBT+. He basically dug himself a grave and laying in it and waiting for the dirt to burry his sorry ass at this rate.

Something else to note about smogon: the format for competitive pokemon uses double battles, but smogon’s fan format is for single battles. They ban and make rules bc gamefreak genuinely does not support the format of singles. That’s not a roast or anything, they just balance it for doubles.
