Fun Fact: The reason why Ms. Tyme is a Rock specialist is because she used to be a Gym Leader. Her sister, Ryme, took her place when she became a full time teacher about a year and half before the game.
Has Mikey still not done the classes?
@@Celestia282 Only the History lessons.
@@Celestia282 I haven't done them
I didn’t know Ryme and Tyme were sisters. And I took all the classes.
@@eeveequeenhanna wtf?
you two never disappoint 🤩 mikey’s excitement at the end was the best!!
OMG ITS CZcams AND I AM THE FIRST REAPLY
Thank you CZcams itself for spoiling the ending for me.
I assume there are multiple people who run this account, but to whichever one of you regularly comments on my videos: thank you you're so nice 😭💙
this is not the first time i see youtube comment on mandjtv
How does this not have more likes
You'd think after doing this series for so long it would become stale but these boys are pretty creative in making sure that doesn't happen. Which is great for us cause it means MORE CONTENT.
They're smart when it comes to content then they're just comedians in the video, perfect combination
There videos are honestly unbelievably entertaining and make my day every time I watch there videos

Time?
End i think
When the Mabosstiff intimidated your Great Tusk, your Attack Stat was lowered, meaning Protosynthesis boosted the next highest stat: Defense
Such a fun idea for a video btw
Next question: Why was Booster Energy consumed in the sun ?
@@alexursu4403 Probably a glitch.
Its Not a glitch btw
@@adammorin2955 why'd it happen
@@aayushgupta9773 Great Tusk's ability is Protosynthesis, which is activated by either the booster energy or if the pokemon is under harsh sunlight.
Can we just agree that Mikey getting a Torkol for Drought so that the booster energy doesn’t get cost up in case of need of a switch in, was a genuine genius move?
mhm that strat was pretty smart, it was a pretty common in the onset of the generation on showdown
And yet he literally walked past a shiny.
@@storymaster21 wich?
Tbh it's what I would've done, get a sun setter and a bunch of paradox Pokémon
Either that or and electric surge one but I don't think anything has that ability
@@angeljafbenitez1843 in scarlet? No
Mikey playing under leveled for once is such a treat.
That automactically gives him style points
The cut with the Garchomp and Scizor made me actually cry laughing, thank you
I’ve never cried laughed
13:09
John Mikey:"She's got both kinds of Lycanroc"
Dusk Form Lycanroc: "And I took that personally"
NPCs clearly don't know it exists, since they've never used one.
@@gengarzilla1685Well, considering it is event only to my knowledge, it does make sense.
@@tevani1You actually can find Own Tempo Rockruff in Scarlet and Violet! However, they can only be found in certain locations.
For those who don't know, you could also get Hassel or Clavell as the last opponent. Clavell's team is the same as the team he faces you with near the end of Starfall Street (just higher level), and Hassel's team adds a Dragonite. John's massive struggles with Geeta's Espathra reinforces why I think it's a better lead for that team than her Glimmora. A check to your stat boosting lead is way more valuable for NPC trainers than the entry hazard that any of our Pokémon without Levitate can now theoretically absorb.
I once used a Venomoth with Quiver Dance and Baton Pass to sweep Cynthia with one severely underleveled Hydreigon in the Unova sequels so I've seen how much these stat boosts can trivialize the tougher in-game battles. If I tried pulling that with Geeta, then I'd certainly get my ass kicked by the Lady Gaga Ostrich.
Too bad most of Geeta's Paldea pokemon besides her Glimmora belong to other significant paldea region trainers as either part of their roster or are their aces: Espathra & Tulip, Veluza & Kofu, and Giacomo's partner pokemon Pawniard being now a Kingambit
You make a good point, but I still feel that there's no point in having Glimmora last. Espathra into Glimm might work?
@@Heroshand As long as you don't make the thing that puts down hazards your last, yes.
Just bring a good mon and one shot that ostrich it isnt that tuff the next mon allows you to set up better
Interesting concept cause a full team is more practical in a battle but that takes up time, I like how they manage to get creative with the catching requirements. Stops this series from getting stale
Same challenge but
They must catch the first six shiny they see and beat the champion with that team
Failing to do so will have those pokemon be deleted and you must get a new team
Yes
@@zawadafnan2337 would they have to delete the pokemon if they got unlucky and didn't run into the champion when they did the tournament?
@@ThatOneCZcamsPerson well if they lose then the Pokemons get deleted
Not encountering champion won't get them deleted
Mikey faced the more difficult champion and still came out on top, that show of skill deserves a hail yeah!
John is the better battler
@@Dr.J42 I know that already lmao
He brought the best pokemon in the game tbf
yeah but John bröught a Magikarp for the meme xD
Shows how good roaring moon is
Mikey: "This is a rock lady. I did not know this was her specialty."
Not even 2 minutes ago: Game shows a close up of a rock earing.
Johns shirt is on brand but also very aesthetic
Mikey:has multiple counters to skeledirge
Also mikey:AHH not the skeledirge!
I think he's traumatized by that time it almost killed everything during his playthrough
@@madethistocomment727 This is why you pick the Joker Cat
@@kaelanmcalpine2011 I did 😁
@@kaelanmcalpine2011 Or just pick Skeledirge yourself.
Or give a damn about your Quaquaval. That's all I needed to take on Skeledirge...
Oh wow, I was so prepared for the both of them to go through the tournament at least once before either one could beat one of the two champions, but I was wrong!
The utter excitement of both of them getting a chanpion and that it wasn't even the same one was amazing!
I really love the John Michael Cup! The dynamic of the two of you together is absolutely fantastic!
I think the reason Protosynthesis boosted Defense is because Intimidate lowered Attack, making Defense the higher stat.
Yeah, that ability and its future counterpart do take stat changes into account.
24:48 There was genuine emotional fear in that "NO" of Mikey's, goodness.
The battle themes from gen 9 goes so incredibly freaking hard
Well, it's mostly the music of the 8th generation and mixes of music from previous generations most of the time (but admit that the music of Area Zero and the Bamboo Forest is excellent)
I'm binge watching all of these right now cause i just got the game for my birthday and didn't want spoilers till i finished it. Thanks for all this awesome content, these past few videos have been a blast!
happy probably belated birthday!
@@rollingstoats2657 thank you! It was 6 days ago
Happy belated birthday!
Happy late birthday!!!
Happy Birthday!!!!!!
"making a complete clown show of this event" well that statement aged like fine wine by the time this was over 💀. Yeah so Tyme used to be the Rock-type leader of the Montenevera Gym. Her sister Ryme turned it into a Ghost-type gym after Tyme joined the Academy's faculty. I love what Ryme has done to the Gym, the stage looks so cool with all the colors and not to mention the iconic dancing Greavard in the background. The Ghost-type aesthetic fits Montenevera perfectly. As for Magic Powder, it's Hatterene's signature move and all it does is turns the target into a Psychic-type. The move isn't useful unless you're planning a strong strategy.
His Hatterene does have Shadow Ball too, but the AI was too stupid to use it. It's like giving sewing equipment to a toddler.
If only Mikey had gone to school, he would've learned that Tyme was the former Rock Gym Leader before her sister Ryme took over, and Tyme became a teacher at the Academy
Keep up the great work! Love the videos!
oh my gosh what a generous gift, thank you!
I didn't know you could pay people in the comments. You're the first person I've seen do this
u can pay in comments?!?
@@DeadvidDivide Same
Fun fact: Tyme, the Math teacher, is a Rock type specialist because Math's rules are rigid when compared to other subjects, like biology or home economics
That would make sense, actually. Jacq and Saguaro don't have type specialities themselves.
@@gengarzilla1685 In fact, only two teachers have type specialties: Tyme and Hassel.
And Hassel's obvious - being leader of the Paldea Elite Four and heir to high-standing Dragon familia
I like when Mikey says “noooooooo” when gargarnical explode😂😂😂
Mikey having nightmares about skeledirge from his playthrough is hilarious
His videos never disappoint he always goes all out on his videos just for his viewers, thank u
You say that yet you haven’t even watched the whole video at the time of posting this comment 😒
@@daepicest you are not the epicest
@@bored-bee01 that is very true
@@daepicest who says you have to watch the whole video to know it's gonna be awesome
@@Squirtle_Squad_Supremacy that’s also a very good point
It's funny how Mikey and John find the craziest challenges for our entertainment and their own personal gain 😂😂
Mikey: I have no moves good against water types.
Salt Cure: I am forgettably good against water
The fact that John thought he got a shiny slowpoke is ironic because yesterday I did get a shiny slowpoke and was in denial about it for a hot second.
This was actually a sick video, I loved how different it was. You guys normally do catching challenges but this was also team building and battling
Every time they play I have to honestly admire the patience these two chads have. Damn, they went all the way completing the pokedex, got shinies, thought about a nickname for every pokemon, and even caught pokemon other than their team 😳 I'm genuinely impressed, no joke
you dont catch pokemon and put them in boxes?
@@azunomes only my team and the eventual postgame legends, I've never had the willpower and patience to catch them all 🥺
@@LordRemiem i will ssy its a lot easier to just enjoy playing and catching as you go
Everyone else: Geeta is so easy!
PM7: *nervous laughter*
The trick is to _not_ go for a mindless stat boost sweep with your lead. Espathra's her first pick because it copies your boosts with Opportunist.
"You're really weak to ice"
"Not when I catch a Magikarp, I'm not"
this exchange just fucking killed me
I really like how different each person's style was and how much it ended up mattering. John chose a lot of cool strats that got far enough but didn't end up winning because they were pretty built around showmanship and not strategy. Mikey was thinking hard for that strategy and found the idea of using a sun based paradox team that wasn't as flashy but still carried him all the way. Really interesting stuff and a very enjoyable watch.
21:28 LMAO That moment of realization 😂
Hearing Mikey say, "It's time to D-D-D-D-D-D-Duel!" made my day.
I love these videos. The JMC is my favourite series keep them coming
Hold up this is actually a great idea for a video, I can't wait to watch the rest of it 🙂
Mikey:she has both types of lycanrock
Dusk form:am I a joke to you
John catching Magikarp was just perfect
Mikey - She has both types of Lycanroc.
Dusk form - Am I a joke to you!
#9 on trending mikey!! I’ve only been here since last year but it’s so cool to see that on one of your videos! You and john are so wholesome
Actually, these videos regularly make the trending page. The first one I saw was the size challenge at 3rd, and I thought it was just an exception because of the streak of 4 ties. But no, every time I rewatch a JMC video on the same day, I notice it’s on the page. Not that I’m complaining; I’m glad they’re getting recognition.
johns shiny sneeze looks really cool
Honestly, listening to you guys during work for some reason calms me. Glad that you uploaded this!
Another excellent addition to the John-Michael Cup. That being said, I’m still holding out for them to do a Race Across Paldea for this series.
1:34 freakin killed me
If you read the books, Penny and Arvin are also registered champions. So that's 4 trainers you could've beaten.
Mikey I'm so glad you and John have been having so much fun. Your break was so worth it too see you back to having a blast. Amazing videos and I hope you win again Mikey!
The pure genius of Nitewing makes me so unreasonably happy 😁😁😁
1:35 - Yet Garchomp can’t learn Fly
Getting a lot of use out of the Mikey spanking John clip, and I'm all here for it
This is my favorite video from Season 2. I've come back to watch it like five times.
You guys should do this idea again but instead of seeing who can beat the champion first you should battle each other I think that would be very entertaining
I have never in my life heard someone say “her team is quite good” in reference to Geeta. 24:54
Would have been at least a little more interesting if Glimmora went first for Toxic Debris.
No it wouldn't. Toxic Spikes is laughably easy to clear with any non-Levitate Pokémon if they have Tera Poison. Meanwhile Espathra is there to stop people from 6-0ing her with lazy setup sweeper leads, which is a problem that plagues even Cynthia. Glimmora should switch spots with Kingambit but Espathra's Opportunist ability is more valuable to an NPC than Toxic Debris.
@@gengarzilla1685 I know, but it would have been something unique and would give people that didn't have pokemon that couldn't clear it some annoyance.
Ehh, I feel there's be even more annoyance to come from those other people who habitually lean on stat buffs. A lead like that is no less unique either.
6:45 I love this part outside of the tournament 😂😂
Fun fact: Tyme was actually the rock type gym leader but retired to be the math teacher Ryme (her sister) took her place as a gym leader
Ah yes,a whole playthrough to beat each other,true rivalry
Get this the 69th most commented comment lol
Really?
I like seeing the stick figures that have John and Mikey’s faces and Mikey smacking Johns butt it’s really funny 😂
I just want to mention
you can actually escape Area Zero by climbing the walls manually
This has got to be one of my favorite videos from the JMC. Really unique concept and I love how much strategy went into it, even though I'm sure it must've been exhausting to record. Appreciate you, Mikey :D
I love the JMC it puts me in my happy place. And I LOVED this video idea. Such a cool challenge!!
8:06 Mikey was SHOOKETH.
I think this game wants me to join Team Sky, I found a shiny Staraptor, shiny Talonflame yesterday and today a shiny Rookidee
As soon As John caught the wugtrio and magikarp I knew it was all over for the John Guy
Thought that too once got Feesh
Was basically 5 vs 6 from there for him
"She's got both types of Lycanroc"
Dusk Forme Lycanroc: Am I a joke to you?
Mikey got so worried, he considered the possibility of ROARING MOON being outspeed by an old good boy
Fun fact: Mrs. Tyme used to be the Rock type gym leader in Montenevera. She retired from that line of work to become an English teacher for the trainers to come and was succeeded by her sister... The MC of RIP, Ryme.
Maths teacher, actually.
@@gengarzilla1685 No idea how I forgot that, damn.
Mikey if you don't win this John Michael season 2 cup I will cry
Thank you for all the likes
Same bro
I just wish a John Michael wins it
@@chizzicle Yea same
I will too
@@chizzicle with one
Do more of these? This has to be my favorite video from you guys!
Love the JMC!
If you guys could have 6 normal Pokémon plus one legendary in real life what would they be?
I'm so glad to catch this early, love the content, keep it up man. These ideas are so creative
Yoooioo
Fun fact: if you are trying to capture a pokemon that you already have, a successful will always be critical. So you either get a critical capture or a failed capture.
I hate that so much. It removes all the suspense from Pokémon captures and brings the capturing mechanic back to almost literally Gen 1 standards.
That Espathra absolutely walled John
And this is why Espathra is a better lead than Glimmora. Finally, a Champion who punishes us for ridiculous setup spam leads! Way better than an auto Toxic Spikes in the generation where everything can become Poison type.
19:30 Arven has his pokeball upside down?! Did I never notice?
here is an idea for a round of the JMC; for each round you are given five random characteristics for pokemon. (examples: it is the color red, it can fly, it walks on four legs, it is duel typing, it is fully evolve ect.)and each round won't have the same combo of characteristics. when you catch a pokemon you get a point for each characteristic it matches, ranging from one point to five. the most points after five to ten rounds win. and since we know it will come up, catching a shiny can replace one of the characteristics with 'shiny'.
When it comes to color, would a shiny Pokemon be scored as the shiny's coloration, or its usual coloration (would shiny Magikarp count as yellow or red)?
@@charlesruteal9062 I have near the end that if you find and catch a shiny you can replace any one of the characteristics with “shiny”
@@shadowwriter329 But what if the characteristic I want to replace isn't the color? Say, two of the requirements in a round are "red color", and "ground type", and I get the aforementioned shiny Magikarp. What color does that Magikarp count as? If it counts as yellow, the player would only be able to get one point from those two categories (since shiny Feesh is neither red nor a ground-type, it gets no points outside of the shiny replacement bonus). If it counts as red (Magikarp's default color), the player would get two points from those two categories (replacing the "ground-type" requirement with "shiny", and fulfilling the "red" condition naturally).
And it would have the opposite result if it was a shiny Gyarados (I would get the 2 points if the shiny colors were used to match the characteristics, since shiny Dos is red while its normal colors isn't). So for consistency's sake, what color would a shiny count as? I could make the argument for either:
-Using its shiny coloration intuitively makes more sense, since it's the color you're getting it in, while also adding an element of strategy/risk for hunting shinies (if the color only matches the shiny, it could be worth two more points than the non-shiny)
-Treating the shiny as its default coloration (outside of the shiny bonus) makes hunting mons/points more consistent, since there would be no difference between the normal and shiny mon outside of the shiny bonus (if you have a mon that you know would get 4/5 characteristics, getting it shiny would ensure 5/5 even if one of those 4 characteristics is its color)
@@charlesruteal9062 any one characteristic can be replace, most likely one that wouldn’t match the Pokémon anyway. For example with the Gyarados you can replace one such as “it walks on four legs” to get as many points as possible. The characteristic are random and there are plenty of combos to do each round so it makes it more challenging and shiny just adds a twist because let’s be honest I am expecting John to catch one shiny each video where you catch them.
@@shadowwriter329 You still need to pick one (between treating the shiny as its shiny colors, or default colors), though. The examples I gave with the Magikarp/Gyarados include a characteristic that doesn't match the Pokemon (the ground typing). In either case, the shiny point would go to that "ground" characteristic (or any other characteristic that doesn't match, like "walks on four legs" like you mentioned), and the shiny would be worth one point on that alone. But I was talking about the point gained by the "red" characteristic. Should a shiny Magikarp count as yellow or red?
This sort of thing might seem insignificant (it's a difference of at most one point per round), but it'd be better to troubleshoot the rules in advance to make the competition more fair/consistent (like how they agreed to ban Gen 6 and 7's guaranteed catch routes in one of their shiny catching challenges).
Michael and John making my day great once again
I loved how John just knew that Micky had the win in the bag even though Micky wasn't as confident
Mikey is terrified at this moment 21:18
We are all waiting for team Sky in paldea right?
First he still has Gens 5-8 to go.
Yeah but still
Hail Yeah!
I want him to pick Qauxly and then dump Quaquaval like Empoleon in Platinum
Will likely be happy once his Miraidon/Koraidon can glide
Am I the only one who wants to see Team Sky vs John's evil team?
He has an evil team?
Team Sky vs Team Frog or Feesh maybe?
Seeing Garchomp flying means its a CREATURE OF THE SKY!
I’m surprised neither of them used vitamins.
whenever you make a new video i get soo excited.... I LOVE your content
Really good concept. Great ideas as always!
Mickey losing the pile of salt 2 times had me dying
Garchomp casually floating despite it having no speed to fly with
Seriously how do you keep coming up with such cool and new ideas? Surprise trade bingo way back when threw me off guard and now this? Your mind just never stops and I love it
Awesome video
Was refreshing to see a battle +speed-run challenge after so many catching challenges
With how Mikey (human not Sylveon) was only catching Paradox Pokemon and PM7 was catching Pseduo's early on makes me think that it would be cool for them to build a theme-based team and then do battle challenges
Would love to see more battling based challenges overall as well if can make them creative enough too
John made me cry after walking right past the shiny cetitan prevolution at 10:15
My new go-to series to binge
This was an epic video, especially the final fight.
What a stressful battle, but at same time was amazing to watch.
Edit: at around 18:51 to 18:54 there is a black screen not sure if that is intentional
yeah was trying to go avant garde with my editing style good eye
Mikey: I gonna strategize and carefully select the best available pokemon to win.
PM7: FEEESSSHHHH!!!!!
Oh my God
"Wait a minute, you're pulling a me."
Whoa, he's finding a Shiny?
Im pretty sure that for great tusk, it was only a defense boost that one time because your attack was lowered due to intimidate. Not sure tho maybe im just dumb 🤷♂️
You got it right. Those abilities do interact with stat changes.
I would love to see you do a playthrough of Pokémon Shield but using only Fairy types.
MVP: Mikey the Sylveon
