Verlisify continues to entertain me with his sexism. Every opponent that ever comes up in his videos that's a girl has the misfortune of being called a dude anyway by him lol
There's a lot of that in the Pokemon community I've noticed, and it would be hilarious to see a Manosphere thread dedicated to sexism among Pokemon players because it's a fucking goldmine. The Pokemon community's sexism rivals its autism and may even surpass it. I remember a while back seeing someone complain about getting a female Red Gyarados because they can't picture a huge, destructive, male-looking Gyarados as a female. And then tried tacking onto the post "I hope I don't sound too sexist or anything" lol

I mean, what did you expect? Not that anti-SJWs are inherently sexist, but I see a lot of Sargon of Akkad videos in his recommended sidebar when he's watching other YouTube videos. I think that a lot of the Poketubers end up being sexist because they're so good at deflecting pussy they have little to no experience with healthy, adult relationships with women outside of their mothers or other relatives. But then you have people like Tamashii Hiroka who rant about how sexist Lopunny and Bunnelby are because they fit some sort of incredibly contrived gender stereotypes. She might actually have had a point if both Pokemon were gender exclusive (all female and male, respectively) but they're not. They're just incoherent ramblings concocted around the fact that she doesn't like the more humanoid Pokemon designs.
But back to Verlisify. I don't know if I have time to do it now, but there's been multiple dramas and controversies since this thread became inactive. One of the most prominent was his spat with a Pokemon card supplier called CCG Castle.
Just a little background: it was discovered by numerous individuals that the new Sun and Moon cards can be "mapped out" and a pattern can be discovered for which packs contain ultra rare cards. This means that buying individual packs loose from retailers can be a bad deal and they can be stripped of some or all rares like holos. Verlisify decided to test some of the major online retailers (including CCG Castle) by taking their name and logo and putting SCAM in giant letters across it in his videos. Typical Verlisify-clickbait style.
Well, this video understandably upset the guy who runs CCG Castle. He approached Antonio on Twitter saying he's never mapped packs and that his video was a very serious accusation and amounted to slander. He was pretty polite about it first. He offered to meet Antonio in person over coffee and talk it over like adults. He offered him a free tour of his warehouse, which is less than an hour away from where Antonio lives. He politely asked him multiple times to please change the thumbnail and stop defaming him and his family's business and livelihood. So did Antonio take him up on any of his offers? Of course he didn't. But he couldn't just stop there. He made yet another video using CCG Castle's logo with the word THREATS superimposed over it saying he was being threatened because CCG Castle, exhausted of all other alternatives, finally told him he would pursue legal action against him because of his video.
There's other shit he's done, but this post is long enough. I'll get to it in a second, later post.

@Potions Master I asked Verlis in a Youtube comment why he is calling female opponents guys using male pronouns. One of his fanboys jumped in to spout off the classic Pokeman mantra that "most of the girls are just guys who picked female avatars", I asked him if denial is all that's left of his manhood because he can't handle losing to girls, and Verlis deleted the whole comment string. LOL

To be fair a good amount of male players do choose a female avatar, but there's also a substantial female playerbase, too. (I noticed around 1 out of ever 4 male players in local VGC tourneys use female avatars, but lots of girls play, too.) It's really odd that he would assume all Pokemon players are male.
There are a few words that Verlis has "flagged" so that if your comment uses them they're automatically flagged for approval before being posted and seen: he subsequently deletes these comments en masse, usually without reading them. I know for a fact two of the keywords are honest and clickbait, so avoid using these if you want your comment to actually be seen and stay up long enough to be read and manually deleted. Some of his older less popular videos have little to no comment moderation. There's probably other keywords of which I'm currently unaware.

@Potions Master i know, but the male players picking the girl avatars should be mistaken for girls, not the other way around. but that won't ever happen in the Pokemanosphere. 
it's probable that the words "sexism" and "sexist" are auto flagged too, yeah. Antonio can't risk having his personality flaws exposed!

Probably break his mind to learn that I and several other girls I know who play tend to choose male avatars, chances are he's lost to a lot more chicks than he realises.@Potions Master i know, but the male players picking the girl avatars should be mistaken for girls, not the other way around. but that won't ever happen in the Pokemanosphere.

That's a really great OP. If tyere wasn't a thread I was gonna make one since he's gotten very "controversial" since his view count went down. Here's a couple things I didn't notice while looking at the OP (maybe I missed them):
Verlisify treats anybody who doesn't agree with him like shit. Even when his fans say they don't care about cheating he does things like call them a problem and cancer on the community. This is very unprompted since these people don't use personal attacks against him. This is generally seen in the comment section on his anti cheating videos.
He also has a huge hate boner for cheating. This is in the OP but I'm going to offer a few examples.
He says lack of time isn't an excuse because he bred Pokémon when he also worked two jobs. Something that's important to note is that he doesn't breed a lot of his Pokémon. Some of his friends do it for him.
Powerlevel but I bred hundreds of Pokémon with just friend safari Ditto in X before Pokegenning was available in Gen VI and it's completely understandable that people don't want to spend 6+ hours breeding.
Verlisify also uses and Arduino computer as a bot to AFK farm 4+ IV Ditto but says since the Ditto are actually in the game "it's not cheating and doesn't give him an advantage over people not botting". So much for him putting in time to be a proud legit player.
Verlisify is an incredible egotist. He calls himself the top Pokémon YouTuber in terms of popularity and believe the "haters" are just jealous of him. He also says anybody who makes a video of him or says anything critical is lying and making false facts to try to brainwash people into hating him. He also says that anybody who makes a video with similar information to his is stealing his content for views, despite him getting all of his information from Serebii and the Pokémon subreddits.
A couple years ago he said he tried to collaborate with Thejwittz and some other big Pokémon YouTubers but they turned him down because of his "reputation". Any bad reputation he has is all on him for personally attacking anybody who disagrees with him and shitting on people who like Smogon and not VGC rules. And perhaps some genuinely entertaining people didn't want some annoying obnoxious self centered douche making the video(s) all about him and fucking up their content.

There's only a few videos online of him actually playing Pokemon at all. I'be never actually seen him win at a battle against another person. Even against AI, he seems to struggle. His "Fan Friday" videos are just him narrating over random people's battles, never his own. His videos are the all incredibly low effort, designed for maximum clicks and ad revenue. Usually no video editing involved. Just him complaining or narrating over footage of gameplay or a news story.

He hasn't really battled in videos since 2013 or 2014. He did occasional battle streams he called "Battle Gauntlets". It is entertaining to see him freak out over other people reporting the same information though. Since they're obviously "stealing" his content and totally not going on Reddit like he does.
Late reply but the holo in those is a 1/3 chance. The older Sun and Moon boxes had 30 boosters and every 3rd booster was a guaranteed holo. 1/8 is actually very suspect if they don't shuffle the boosters assuming that they just grab a buyers packs at the same time and don't grab random packs from the box.

He would never use it because it would involve switching out. He has stated that he "has better luck when he doesn't switch out." It doesn't take someone who is even literate in Pokemon to understand that unilaterally never using a such vital component to battling in any and all strategic planning whatsoever is a terrible and downright idiotic decision. Switching involves out-thinking and out-predicting an opponent, a fundamental of competitive play in any game. Something that is apparently well beyond his mental capabilities.
I once watched this guy let his own Pokemon, under the effects of confusion and attract, slowly beat itself to death in a battle against low-level AI because he just wouldn't switch. It was like watching someone slowly die from smoke inhalation during a fire while they repeatedly pull on a door handle with the word PUSH clearly written on it. All the while blaming hackers in competitive tiers he doesn't even touch. Hell, is there any evidence he actually plays Pokemon at all, aside from some playthrough footage? He might have stolen it.

He actually participated in his first real tournament few years ago, take a wild guess on how it went.

Confused, attracted, doesn't switch? *autistic screeching*
For the Pokemon illiterate, not only does switching allow you to take full advantage of getting good matchups, the status effects of confusion and attraction GO THE FUCK AWAY if you switch out. As Potions Master already said, he basically suicided himself.

To make more your point more clear, not switching can sometimes be a smart way to outsmart/outpredict your opponent, and some players use that as mind games, but when you have a temporal status candition or facing against any kind of strategic time bomb, not switching is the exact equivalent of...

Super powerlevel time: In one of my first real battles (As in, as a teenager who is too old for Pokemon but doesn't care, as opposed to battling that dickwad who argued that Latios didn't count for the "No legendaries" rule you agreed on because it has a gender, then turned his game off when you face-fucked his precious dragon with Ice moves), I went with the idea that switching was a necessity and got my ass kicked because it meant that, while I had the type advantage, I also never had full health. Later on I learned that sometimes it's a better idea to let yourself lose that matchup and just smack them really hard with a coverage move, giving whatever you send in next an easier time.
That said, not pulling out of a battle while infatuated or confused is pants-on-head exceptional. Unless you've really fucked up, you should have something on your team that is immune to infatuation. Confusion's a bit more of a bitch, but your opponent only has a 25% chance of using Confuse Ray or Swagger again if it's a computer, and is very unlikely to pick it unless they've outpredicted you if they're human, while you have a 50% chance of punching yourself in the face.
