That Shiny Sigilyph encounter is a perfect example of why, in challenge playthroughs, I keep a rule that I can still keep Pokéballs on hand for legendaries and shinies. I just have to then box it like the Lunala in your Moon wonderlocke.
Depending on the shiny, I can choose to use it for my playthroughs, especially if it's an early game shiny that's a pokemon I like.
Would’ve boxed that sigilyph though, that was late in the game.
@Unown Unless I'm doing a Shiny Locke, (which I'm preparing to do on Alpha Sapphire) I allow myself to catch them, but not use them. In a Shiny Locke, I can obviously use them.
thats generally why the shiny clause is a thing.
Shiny chances are really high in wormholes
I remember one time playing Pokemon out of the box, can't remember which game it was, but I somehow got a shiny starter
"Hey look, is that a Necrozma and a Shiny Sigilyph that I could have caught and transferred and not used on my team?"
"Eh, let's keep flying..."
I was perfectly thinking: "Mikey, just cheat and catch the darn shiny, nobody is going to care."
@@Zenith-SMK yeah, I said, don't use it on your team, and it won't be cheating... I BARELY get shinies, so I felt a personal attack...
@@yummydragon8533 I agree, I have no non event shinies myself
It's a lot easier to get shinies via Ultra Warp Ride. The odds are much higher; it was not unexpected that the Sigilyph would be shiny.
@@cullenhutchison6528 ok and? Nobody really cares, a shiny is a shiny, just catch the darn thing

Sigilyph could have been saved with a shiny clause in your ruleset and nobody would have blamed you for catching it. Also, Mimikyu with Shadow Sneak would have meant hitting the Z-Move, leaving Necrozma on a sliver, and hitting it with a priority Shadow Sneak to take it out. Would have been much easier.
He probably didn’t have any poke balls
He could have just used toxic turn one and win that way
The sigilyph had a super high shiny rate
He could have caught it and did a wonder trade or sum
@@dungfungus56 god damn I got shiny altaria in that space but till that time I didnt know anything about shiny and stuff and I ran away from that battle

And that Indominous continues to lost battle against opponent with favorable type matchups

@araion hatokawa in my first playthrough of sun, it took me like 30 TRIES to kill that mimikyu. Luckily, my wonderful habit of overleveling my pokemon before big challenges.
17:15 Mikey: "What were they doing with Togedemaru's moveset?"
Me : *Looking at Salazzle's moveset* Oh... you have seen nothing.
I killed him like this!
Proceeds to shoot sniper in the chest
You think that's bad? Feraligatr doesn't learn any water type moves after Water Gun till level 63!!!
@Sofia Stumme-Hanson well, in pokemon platinum you can teach gyarados bounce in post game tutor moves, if Im remember correctly
What's so terrible about Salazzle's moveset? It learns a descent amount of Fire type moves, and although it doesn't learn many damage-dealing Poison moves, it learns Venoshock by level up which is arguably the only one it needs, plus it learns Sludge Bomb, Sludge Wave, and Poison Jab by TM. (Also that's just in Gen 7; in Gen 8 Salandit learns Poison Fang at level 15.) That's a lot better than Togedemaru not learning any Steel type moves except Gyro Ball by TM.
@@tronzero more than of it's moves are PHYSICAL moves, the only non STAB special attacking move it learns by leveling up is Dragon Pulse, and it ONLY learn Mud-Slap as an egg move, so yeah, either swap it's attack special attack stats or change most of it's movepool drastically.
“Named Date Tech”
I see Haikyuu has made it to this part of the internet as well
I'm not done watching the video, but that Shieldon better be a true *Iron Wall*

I love he named it date tech

It took me way to long to realize where i had heard it from when I watched this before
Can we all just be grateful for a second that Necrozma doesn't have any healing moves when you fight it as Ultra Necrozma?
Yeah, otherwise it would b almost impossible to beat it
@@eljordinio7647 i enjoy referring to myself in third person. this gives necrozma power
@@necrozma4029 don't really see how that helps necrozma
@@eljordinio7647 ...excuse you.
I'm grateful that all its moves are resisted by a pure Steel type. Smart Strike is a really dumb pick when it could have something like Brick Break or Heat Wave.
I remember watching Part 3 as I was playing Pixelmon and right after you couldn't catch a shiny Sigilyph, i actually managed to catch one. I named it Mikey in honor of your struggle

I like how the thumbnail foreshadowed the “Best Worst Shiny Luck”.
I feel like if you find a shiny in any of these challenges then you can catch it but just can't use it
@@rashanmcrae9166 agreed
@@rashanmcrae9166 I agree somewhat. I say all these challenges be they randomizer or nuzlocke or no catching and so on have the exception rule for Shinies that they can be caught and used but with a sort of Asterisk acknowledgement.
@@morrigankasa570 well they can be used like for hm's for a solo Pokemon runs or it fits the requirements for an basic or hardcore nuzlock such as an all flying type run perfect for the sigilyph he found or some how found a shiny in the poke pelago
I mean those shinies are much more common but still it is sad
When Sun and Moon was planned, people gave so much hate to Popplio for being a Water/Fairy and I was like: Im choosing Popplio cause its cute.... And my Primarina was hands down the one pokemon on my time that was beasting through most of the game
a fellow popplio enjoyer! popplio was and is still in my top 3 favorite starters for that reason. plus its just plain adorable.
I did the same thing
I hated litten. Because it stands on 2 legs 😂
i always pick Rowlet so hau had popplio. cause i found him best for hau.
@@thenoisybunnyPrimarina Is Literally The #1 Fairy Type !
They didn't give hate for the typing, they gave hate for design. Those are the sort of vapid, prissy folks who think Pokémon is a beauty pagent instead of a video game.
Shiny Sigilyph: What’s up, shiny Reshiram? 😄
Also shiny sigilyph: yeah I’m just gonna take your spot in the intro for ASPITPIAY now.
Imagine if castform came from poke pelego like "HAIL YEAH"
unfortunate that it didnt happen :(
LOL yeah
Castform is not a pokemon that can appear in Poke Pelago

I literally had the thought "Is this a Re-Upload?" right before he explained that this wasn't MandJTVPlays, at this point I've kinda lumped the 2 channels together
Right same here
"Gotta catch literally none of 'em!"
the primarina probably survived against ultra necrozma due to the hp and defense EV's you got from only using your starter for a while
U mean EVs
So the takeaways from this challenge are:
1) Cradily, once evolved, is very good;
2) Hawlucha and Primarina are incredible and staples on any USUM team; and
3) The gift Eevee is Queen/King Watevra Wa’nabe.
4) Archeops and Defeatist are garbage most of the time
Edit: 4*
@@mizuenayuri I was just about to say that lol
5) you can have bad luck with shinies
That same Eevee was the one to defeat Ultra Necrozma as a Jolteon in my Ultra Sun after everyone died.
Jupithunder the Jolteon dodged the Photon Geyser and crit with Shadow Ball, OHKOing Necrozma.
I mean, I did got some damage from my Golisopod's First Impression and Decidueye's Sucker Punch, which brought Necrozma's health to exactly half, but then the others didn't have any priority moves and Necrozma had a super effective move for 4 members of my team except Decidueye, who already died from a Photon Geyser and Jolteon and I didn't want to use revives and potions, i just thought i would go back, grind and come back but nope, Jupithunder wanted to take revenge right then and i appreciate him for that, i actually cried.

I'm pretty sure Hau's final team before the credits has some EV training done and good IVs on top. His Pokémon were also outspeeding mine in cases when they really shouldn't and I know for a fact that we didn't have low EVs or a low IV on Speed.
Also, I'm 99% sure Photon Geyser ignores the target's ability. Mimikyu's very lucky that Necrozma's AI priorities a super effective Smart Strike instead.
If it's not a 100 percent accurate it's 50 percent accurate!
Ooh that explains how I lost my first time haha
In USUM, people have EV-trained pokés in general. A Masquerain wouldn't be that fucking brutal to fight if it wasn't obviously EV-trained.
The first time I ever played the ultra games, I didn't use my starter. I used the event Own Tempo Rockruff/ Dusk Lycanrock in it's place. So I never saw the emotional moment with my starter at the League's front door until my second playthrough.
Haven't regretted it though. That was my favorite team of all time.

Are u a pokken master

In archeops's defense, Indominus had a negative attack nature and was often a lower level since he had a full team so early and it would have avoided a lot of Defeatist-ing if it wasn't so unlucky
Yes I agree 👏
Also, I feel like the power increase of all the newer pokemon makes it worse and worse
Cradily is such an underrated mon, it's surprisingly useful, you just gotta play around the weaknesses

I first time I beat it I used a hippowdon and a carracosta. Hippowdon had sand stream and Carracosta had Sturdy. I just kept reviving them because I had 100 revival herbs on me. It died from the sandstorm and aqua jet eventually.

The reason Libre was outsped by both Taurus and Leafeon is likely due to both having 252 speed EVs in this battle (as well as 252 attack EVs, to explain why Taurus was so strong). The AI actually has really good stats for almost every fight, which is kinda scary.
The Shiny sigilyph has an extremely high catch rate compared to even fish chaining in gen 6, SOS chaining and Masuda method
Archeops: Ohkos golisopod and damaged pinser twice
Mikey: I don’t like him
To be fair, Archeops also caused him other really bad loses or near losses so... 😂
@@TIGOfficialYT Wouldn't have done so if he knew how to use Archeops.
@@lyncario5515 That's true too, but tbf Archeops sort of sucked to begin with.
@@TIGOfficialYT Being honest, the Alola games don't favor Archeops. Totem pokemons from the point he's usable all have a speed boost making so that ouspeeding them isn't a reliable strategy most of the time (the only exception is Togedemaru, who instead resist Archeops's stabs, and has a +2 defense boost). And since Archeops isn't bulky, totems easily put him in defeatist. Then for trainer bosses, the pokemons they have are often very bulky or incredibly speedy since in gen 7, the bosses all have teams with perfect ivs and are ev trained from at least the begining of the 3rd island (which is also part of why gen 7 is very hard to nuzlocke). Archeops's gameplan is to one-shot things left and rights with acrobatics before u-turning, so of course the one generation where they make every bosses way stronger than usual is it's worse region, which also applies to most pokemons.
I remember watching this series over on Mandjtv Plays, that Masquerain was a nightmare for him lol
I agree, LOL
Thank you for these videos, love hearing about these fun challenges
Your reactions are legit funny. Love your videos. Keep it up!
Everyone always wonders why I like Lileep. Crazily is actually EXTREMELY solid as a Pokemon thanks to Defense and Special Defense being quite bulky. Ya it's attacks are lower and its time as a Lileep is utter suffering, but have a Lileep for stuff like Battle Frontiers or Challenges, and build it for stall? The thing just won't quit
Crazily lol 😂

But what about the road roller?
I love how no one knows they buffed Masquerain in Sun/Moon, making it pretty dangerous if used right, and so everyone underestimates it.
it looks good on paper but there's so many strong Pokemon in USUM that its mediocre defenses, bad HP and mid speed just makes it so unworthy of using
Michael: “I think libre had a speed lowering nature or garbage effort values”
Also Michael: *Shows a footage early that clearly show that libre had a docile nature*

Hi Mandjtv I'm a new subscriber... It's so nostalgic watching you play Pokemon. Thank you for a great content 💙💙💙
Oh yeah, the natures. My first Shiny ever was a Shiny Abra in Ultrasun (in the grass) and it had a Sp.Atk. lowering nature.
worst case scenario
My first shiny, a misdreavus, had a modest nature
Don't get me started every good pokemon I catch just has a terrible nature. I don't know why but I was cursed with terrible natures.
Hence why I love that you can just outright buy mints and silver bottle caps and all that jazz in S/V. See a poké you like? Cool, catch it, and the only thing you have to look out for a bit is EV-training, which again is very alleviated by 252 being the max and the power items.
I'm doing a similar run on Ultra Sun. Primarina was my obvious starter, which synergized nicely with Totem Marowak and Totem Lurantis. Soon after, I added Tyrunt (now Tyrantrum) and eventually Totem Vikavolt. The last Pokémon added to my team was Totem Mimikyu, even though both its types overlapped on my team, but... I didn't really have many other options at that point (plus you can get Mimikyu's Z-move before the Komo-oo trial, so...). I am now stuck at the Ultra Necrozma fight, so I'll need to train my team up a bit.
I chose umbreon for my playthrough as well, a great decision, he got me out of some tight spots, tanked some hard hits that allowed me to heal my hitters many a occasion. I kept him in my team for that reason. Not many fights could one hit him, so I could get at least two heals off him b4 he went down.
I've started trying to complete these games only using story related healing, I've made it past mallows trial and so far so good.

@Apple Head XD OMG Isee it too
Something that is definitely giving archeops trouble is your team, normally if you know something has a nice move you'll switch out. But to what all right your best bet to deal with ice moves are archeops.
Isn’t primp better cause water resists ice?
When I played Pokémon sun, the mimikyu ai was bad. It used mimic but outsped me so I used icy wind. Then after the mimikyu learned and used icy wind I waterinium Z’d it and KO’d.
I get it! I get the shieldon iron wall of date tech reference!
I love that he named sheildon after datech and theur iron wall
Alternate title: Pokémon but you’re a kid again
Actually 🤓, children would know how to get all the totem stickers
I haven’t beaten ultra moon yet, but what I do love about that the game is that I think my maybe 2nd encounter not sure if I had any other Pokémon yet, I encountered a full odds shiny buneary. I named him Curly and he loves me and is incredibly good at using Return.
This is easily the best play through video you've done man. The variety of the newer games definitely lends itself to these kinds of series. Keep it up!

This is my mentality towards that mimikyu
Remember your play through videos like “Can you beat Pokémon FireRed with only normal type moves” and “Can you beat Pokémon Platinum”? Do it again with “Can you beat Let’s go Pikachu with a team of field move users without them ever forgetting their field moves”, with Pikachu knowing Floaty Fall before Sky Dash and Splishy Splash before Sea Skim, a traded Farfetch’d with Cut before Chop Down, a traded Alakazam with Flash before Light Up and Teleport, a Machamp with Strength before Strong Push, a Pokémon that knows Dig like a Diglett, and a Chansey that knows Soft-Boiled, and when the field move counterpart is used, the corresponding Pokémon that knows it has to be following the player (Farfetch’d for Chop Down, Alakazam for Light Up and Pokémon center entry, Machamp for Strong Push, Diglett/Dugtrio for Escape Rope usage, and Chansey for potion and recovery usage).
I was just rewatching the series and as u said "I will put one vid on main channel" notification pop up! 🤣🤣

I remember in my Ultra Moon playthrough because I picked Popplio and I recently hatched an Alolan Vulpix egg (and got it a few levels), I had the perfect counter against her Rowlet.
Just one Powder Snow (which is 4x effective) knocked her Rowlet down.
And then Popplio gets Icy Wind a little later on.
The reshiram flashbacks are coming in
'Rag covered monstrosity' is so accurate and so mean.
That series on the second channel was interesting.
TBH even my Primarina surviving photon geyser hyped me
Yay Primarina is one of my favourite pokemon, glad to see some people using it
Seeing you struggle with Guzma's Masquerain brought back unfortunate memories of my mono-Ghost run of Sun, where I came back to the challenge after forgetting about it for a year right before the Guzma fight at Aether Paradise only to have my whole team swept by his Masquerain. Not a great comeback.
That fucking Masquerain is complete bullshit.
It feels like it has choice scarf, choice specs, wide glasses so its air slash never misses, assault vest and king's rock at the same time since it outsped even plus speed natured pokés of mine, did a stupid amount of damage, was bulky as all hell and flinched like 9/10 times.
It definitely has EVs and great IVs, cuz it's like the one pokémon I struggled hard against (well... aside from Lusamine's Milotic and the totem Araquanid when doing a mono-fire type run but that was very expected). But a fucking *Masquerain???*
It did get base stat increases to Special Attack and Speed in this generation, just to add. +20 on both.
“This rag covered monstrosity was RUINING MY DAY.”
How do you think I feel when I had to do this with no knowledge of any Pokémon, as it was my first Pokémon game. I was stuck on this for like 6 months, it sucked
Bro that calm nature on fabio saved his life
I loved this playthrough
Welcome to the “my favorite fossil Pokémon is awful in battle” club.
Mine a arorus.
Arctovish arctozolt
Also an arorus not a (sorry for being that guy)
My favourite is Cradily so I guess I can't join. I guess that's the price I pay for choosing functionality over appearance.
Makes me real happy to see you using Cradily because it's a really underrated fossil.
Omg the shieldon's name is AMAZING and nice to see another haikyuu fan 😁
Judging by how Mikey judges Pokémon, he probably hates siglyph now
