Very nice
You briefly mentioned your dad thought a fire penguin would be cool, and the mere mention of your dad immediately melted my heart given your prior video about finding your lost pokemon.
15:55 "Memes aren't supposed to live this long."
Bowsette still lives.
Fun fact about Drifloon. It does try to kidnap children, but it is unable to do so because it is not strong enough and it usually ends up being taken away by the child
And that's how Hex maniacs are born.
Key word, usually
The chances of drifloon being strong enough to kidnap a kid are low
But never zero
Starve your children so that Drifloon can take them away. Selfish humans, never thinking of the poor pokemon
@@kristophesiem5336 also drifloon dislikes, heavy children

I love how Grunty boi is constantly summoned by the slide show whenever he’s mentioned, I like to imagine that he waits to pop up until he hears his name as if he has a stage cue or something
i like to think he’s “hiding” behind mikey’s screen, and mikey and everyone else pretend that they can’t see him until he pops out
He's like Tony Wonder, props to anyone who gets that reference
He's like Beetlejuice but with memes about himself
23:17 I absolutely love that they make Gliscor look mildly creepy.
I would love to see a full roster of all the Team Sky members with all these OC applicants! The team is becoming a larger happy family
Grunty Boi spinning away got me dying man.
Can't wait for someone to make an edit of that.
@@gavins6419does it use "Spin me Right Round" or some Pokèmon music?
@@ArispeMatt"Spine" 💀
@@fanofluxray 👍
@@ArispeMatt No, maybe just the Team Rocket Hideout theme with Grunty Boi spinning through the puzzle.
Fun Fact: Apparently there's a Hawaiian myth that dragons disguise themselves as palm trees. Hence Alolan Exeggutor.
I live in Hawaii, so I can confirm. Yes, this is true this morning I went outside and a dragon popped out nowhere.
yes, yes I
I was actually the dragon this whole time
But then why is it part grass type?
golly gee i wonder@@LeDave257
I like how Mikey used the term "Serpentine" when mentioning what Palossand looks like under the sand, like if he was referencing "LEGO Ninjago"
11:45 To evolve do 351 spins at 2 hp while holding [Insert rare item here] outside the third gym on a sunny tuesday morning with 2 legendaries and 3 mythicals on your team (and the pokemon to evolve), all of these must be level 92 and be at full health.
"Castform would kill at least one lion!" is my new favorite Mikey quote
Mikey feeling jealous of his own personas is hilarious. We need to add him in more fanart.
Lol
In case anyone doesn’t know, the guy that got the Pokemon back tattoo is an Australian tennis player, Nick Kyrgios, if you want to see more of it
13:44 The only reason mikey didnt do the ingame trade for machop id because he didnt want to seperated with his beloved
Or he was playing the games catchless or as team sky.
Heads up about the parrot meme; the issue Minecraft caused was that they used chocolate chip cookies as the item fed to them to make them breed, but chocolate is outright poisonous to parrots. This got pointed out to Mojang, and (partially for accuracy, mostly to avoid setting a bad example for the kids playing) they changed the item used for breeding parrots to seeds, as well as making it so that feeding parrots the cookies anyways would give them a lethal stack of the Poisoned status.
Additional note: On Bedrock, cookies do give parrots Lethal Poison, but on Java they actually INSTANTLY KILL THEM.
Bit overkill tbh, Java Edition dev team
You cannot breed parrots
Fun fact: It wasn't just one bad hypno that took some kid. Its Moon dex entry mentions how it carries off anyone who has good dreams. I believe the Ultra Sun dex entry means it's not as much of a threat in /Alola/ because komala are around and perpetually sleeping, and thus make for better targets than humans who it would have to expend energy to make sleep.
That, or it’s not a threat in Alola because there’s no one with good dreams in Alola
@@spindash64 The abandoned megamart gives off an aura preventing good dreams.
I love that there's always a Grunty Boi meme to segue into the sponser segment
Bro predicted paradox cobalion
I love that Mikey accepts the wedding invitation with zero hesitation.
Or at least one would assume that way.
I love how goofy John is, so that you forget that he's actually really good at battling, and afaik wiped the floor with WolfeyVGC(albeit in single battles)
It's like when someone takes off their clown costume and reveals a high-rank black belt underneath.
Wolfey and John had more back and forth rivalry in single battles kinda like Mickey and John in doing random stuff, the last time I remember them playing was in a random battles singles tournament and Wolfey won both the set of 3 they played
@@originalcharacter7598 I recently watched that video, and I believe he said that John wiped him the last time they played(before the tourney)
I literally love Unfezant!! I love sassy Pokemon that Ash uses - so Snivy and Unfezant are for sure on the list lol
Me too! I had Unfeazant female and it swept Gym Leader Marlon's team... With Fly!!!
Unfridgerator (idk)
I love unfezant because they remind me of passenger pigeons and I had one the sword team
Nobody cares about ash
8:54 they forgot to add litwick he/she’s a candle that takes children souls as their own or litwick is a trapped child soul either one I forgot
8:19 Lockstin explained this pretty well a few times but the TDLR is that 1) Alolan Exegguter resembles Draconis Plants and 2) In Hawaii mythology there are these dragon/lizard/gecko creatures called Mo’o (hence the Kommo-O’s name, tho aside from that they aren’t that similar. They’re most similar to Salazzle, actually) that could shapeshift into whatever, and some shaftshifted into trees
Lockstin legits carries Pokemon designs, I love so many of them for their origins that I learned of from Lockstin
I always hated the "four horsemen of why are these dragon type" because a google search would tell you literally every single one lmao
For those that don't know alolan exeggutor is based off dracaena palm trees, which are called dragon trees :)
(Also turtonator is a reptile lol literally any reptile is up for dragon typing)
I made that post, I’ll be honest; fair point
@@user-iv4gu1le5onah turtonator makes no sense the only reason is that its a parallel to drampa
ok
Also in Hawaii there are legends of shapeshifting dragons that often disguise themselves as palm trees
Fun fact, somebody actually took a survey... and every single Pokemon had at least one person view that Pokemon as their favorite...
As soon as I saw Lokix it quickly rose up to be among my all time favorite pokémon
I want everyone to take a moment to realize that garchomp can't learn dragon dance....but barboach can.
When a literal fish has better moves than you
Yes but also wooper and gastly can learn ice punch but kyurem can’t
Not everybody can dance.
But some strange choices can
WWWWWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAÀAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The azurill changing gender happened to me during Pokémon B2W2 and everyone I told about it didn’t believe me and I looked it up online and never saw any information about it. I thought I was going crazy and forced myself to believe that it wasn’t real and I’ve never forgotten it since. This meme review has saved 12 y/o me.

@@kaitopedestrian kaito pedestrian?! you’re a mandjtv viewer?!
10:30 that milotic is a spy.
8:20 Alolan Exeggutor is Dragon-Type because it is heavily inspired by dracaena palm trees, otherwise known as dragon trees. Hope this helps.
I feel the need to point out that the reason the Drowzee meme persists is because of your reactions to them. We feed on your suffering. It’s like Dad Jokes. The more you groan, the stronger they get.
The Alolan Exeggutor typing is actually absolutely genius. It's a Dragon Tree, which is a type of plant.
I like to believe Alolan Exeggcutor is actually the original, and when they were taken to the Kanto Safari zone, and some “eggscaped” captivity, they retained juvenile traits to be more resistant to toxins and cold weather
An also I believe it’s based off a myth of a dragon that is disguised as a tree
@@aaronhluskojr7311same thing as Kommo-o, a Mo-o
I never knew that, thanks, it knew there had to be some reason.
*Yanmega and Vibrava:* :(
Cryogognal actually used to be my favourite Pokémon and he is still up there!
6:18
I used Vaporeon in my Pokemon Blue playthrough since it countered my Venusaur's weakness to Fire.
I been watching this man since like 2017-2018,and i assure u whenever this man uploads,i just feel really happy,its a strange feeling because i have never experienced this with any other youtubers
Nice
I remember watching pokemon talk in middle school good time lol
Mikey had very real fear in his eyes during the Dragon Dance clip. 😂
It could have gone many ways...
Me too, but I also trusted Kaytee so the fear was mostly about her betraying our trust. Good thing she didn't.
6:00 Which we need more of ❤😭
Guys it is with great displeasure to announce that Mikey said Arceus instead of Arkoos at 12:01
Eelektross was unironically my favourite Pokemon from Gen 5. I was fascinated by 'no-weakness' Pokemon like Sableye and Spiritomb, so a non Ghost/Dark no-weakness Pokemon was super-interesting. Technically, the Eelektross line is the only remaining no-weakness Pokemon. The only way to hit them super-effectively is to eliminate their Ability or to hit them with Thousand Arrows.
I love that little eel man
Eelektross my beloved
The story with the Minecraft parrots is when they were originally added they were tamed by feeding them cookies but the developers learned that chocolate is deadly to birds so to avoid anyone feeding their real birds chocolate chip cookies they changed the taming item to seeds
@@luissuazo3684 it’s just how the Minecraft team does things they also removed fireflies completely because frogs can’t actually eat them it’s kinda dumb that a game where skeletons and zombies walk around wants to be “realistic as possible” but it’s just how they do things
Wouldnt add sharks and other irl animals cause its too realistic, but would remove a feature to make it realistic.
@@luissuazo3684 they did that because actual children also fed parrots chocolate chips after playing or watching others play online. rarely are decisions made without reasons.
You forgot to mention that they didn't just change cookies to seeds, but also made the cookies instantly kill parrots if you feed them with some
@@nicocchi It’s not instant, but they’re at least poisoned
Currently listening to this entire meme series at work, it is making them go faster, thanks Mikey!
Everything was laid out so clearly. Thank you for your hard work and for this video
A.Exeggutor being Dragon type is in no way obvious, but if you know it is pretty cool. In Hawaii there is a mythological creature called the Mo'o (pronounced Moe-Oh) and they are magical shapeshifting lizard spirits. And in pokemon, anything magic reptile is dragon type. XD But the reason Exeggutor in particular is dragon type, is because one of the Mo'o's favorite disguises is a palm tree. Additional fact, Salandit and Salazale are also based on the Mo'o since another disguise of the mo'o is a beautiful woman who bewitches men with her pheromones. Also, despite having Mo'o in their name, the Kammo'o line isn't actually based on the Mo'o.
There's also the dragon trees. One kind of them looks like a thin palmtree with more upwards-pointing leaves.
@@nicocchi you got it
You got it
Considering X and Y are supposedly named after the X and Y axis of a graph/3D, I feel their remakes will be ZX and ZY, adding the Z-axis and also finally giving us Pokemon Z in SOME form.
Also, about Celebi turning into a fairy-type, I already brought this up with Victini in the type-combination video, but I'm pretty sure the reason they didn't change the type of any mythical Pokemon is because they limited it to Pokemon that could be caught within X and Y, since players would most likely want to use these Pokemon that received such a major change. But that was obviously still at a time when they were still being very conservative with mythical Pokemon and keeping them for Event-only, ORAS was the first time we got a mythical that was catchable without DLC, and it obviously fit into the story of the Delta-Episode. Pretty sure Gen 7 didn't have that and the next time was only in SwShs DLC.
the minecraft parrot one was when they aded parrots, and you could feed them cookies, this led to people thinking you could feed cookies/ chocolate to their parrots/birds, witch is the equivalent of giving your yorkie 17 gallons of chocolate milk. when mojang found out , they immidiatley changed it to cookies poison them, and told everyone to not feed their birds chocolate.
4:38 science jokes
Mikey’s Iroh impression improving as the video goes along is a top tier character arc.
ok
Eggexutor is based off of Mo-o which are Hawaiian dragons who commonly disguise themselves as trees
That and plus, search up “dragon tree”.
21:49 I have officially watched WAY too much Purplecliff because I thought that was going in a COMPLETELY different direction.
"can i use your phone" "absolutely not." Got me ROLLING on the floor.
You know it's a good day when mandjtv posts. And with a meme review
Frrr
real
true
today is a good day!

Hearing Mikey saying lemme cook is like an 80 year old Grampa saying “that’s lit”
I still remember Nemona silent screaming with delight and it’s pretty close to a uncanny valley feel
I meant in silence
With the mention of team sky (Braviary scream in the back ground) I've basically figure out my team for it. This team was made with my character, hawk Avery, going from a grunt to a Admin: Bagon (Final evo Salamence nicknamed Icarus), halucha (Nicknamed Mysterio), Oricorio Sensu style (Nicknamed Geisha) Charmander (Finale evo Charizard nicknamed Blair) Archen (Finale Evo Archeops nicknamed Roc) Zubat (Finale Evo Crobat nicknamed Yuma) Way I thought about it was basically my guy starts as a Grunt and makes his way up the ranks to become a admin styled after pilots/the air force.
Exeggutor is based off of native Hawaiian legends involved a type of mythic dragon of Hawaii. Basically, this dragon has the power to shapeshift, and one of it's favorite forms to take is that of trees so it can spy on people.
"Gen 9 needs more time to cook"
Do not underestimate my love for Tinkaton sir
As a fellow Tinkaton enthusiast, I approve of your taste in pokemon.
It did need more play testing but yes very good game
OMG! During the grunty boi segment, there was a kurzgesagt calendar on the wall! I love kurzgesagt!
6:24 my favorite pokemon is vaporeon and I feel the pain. My vaporeon named Kris the vaporeon is the most wholesome pokemon around!
[[LIGHTNER]] WHY ARE YOU A [[monster in your pocket]]
12:43 Kinda weird that Zacian, Zamazenta are so low despite Eternatus being so high, and the legendary heroes defeated him twice. And Koraidon's Pokedex entry said he "split the land". Should be above a good chunk of the Max Pokemon
He maybe took another approach on it but who knows
Eternamax Eternatus has the highest base stat total in the entirety of pokemon.
I absolutely love that grunty boi comes in when there is a meme about him😂
Idk, by I like to call it "The Grunty Boi Curse"
@@Jasetendo The word "curse" would imply this to be a bad thing, though.
For April fools day 2024, Mikey should do a playthrough of Yo-kai Watch.
I love that Grunty Boi is there to let us know about the sponsorships, and that he’s an *evil* grunt letting us know about *sponsorships*.
Hearing Mikey saying "Hold on, let me cook" with such a distinct face makes me so happy.
Gotta love the worry on Mikeys face when he saw an animation including Cynthia 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Used to watch your channel in lockdown all the time. Forgot about you but it’s good to see your doing well
Celebi is an onion fairy
Grass/Fairy feels appropriate.
Melloetta is a pop star thing?
Give her the Normal/Fairy Type AND the Fighting/Fairy Type (for her Aria AND Pirouette Formes)
Blissey is a healer, the whole line could be Fairy-Type, but then Pokémon is just solidifying Fairy as the "Girly" and "Pink" Type.
Normal/Fairy for Blissey, the rest of the line stays Pure Normal-Type.
Bellossom doesn't need another Type. But if it got one, Fairy could work.
Especially if Meganium got Grass/Psychic and it would shut up the idiots.
7:46
Funny yet amazing story, when playing Legends Arceus, I expected to not use Ursaluna in my team, but then I found a shiny Ursaring. I checked its stats because maybe I could use it for an upcoming battle, but then I saw it was Adamant nature. That Ursaring, which later became Ursaluna, was placed in my team that beat the game.
That's why I used a Hippowdon
8:04
Okay here we go
Applin is based on the common depiction of a worm inside of an apple. It may also be a pun on the term wyrm, a serpentine dragon, which sounds similar to 'worm'. It is also based on the Lindwurm, a green, serpentine dragon that lives in moutains.
Alolan Exeggutor is based on the Dracaena Palm trees, which are often called "Dragon Trees."
Turtonator is based on the Mata Mata Turtle, an unusual turtle with a notably spiky shell and monstrous-looking head.
and finally Dragalge is based on the Common Sea Dragon.
Why is applin even grass type
@@Evanthefrostyanimations it's encased in the apple (despite that it can leave) and needs apples to evolve
The “catching an absol in Pokémon go, realisation “ is funny to me because I’ve got like 6 full odds shiny abosls 😂
It should be noted that in Asian Mythos, the dragon turtle is a thing....
And Dragalge is based on an animal called the sea dragon...
Applin is based off of a Wyrm...
And Executor is based on a dragon tree along with a coconut tree is a joke based on the legendary dragon "Coco"
Meme Reviews are equally so funny and so chill. Always love when a new one comes out.
Mikey always find a way to put a smile on my face even when the days are dark he shows that there is friendship in every heart
ok
7:33 He talked like Jibanyan for that whole sentence.
I like how the intro song doesn’t rhyme and fit together but they’re like “ehh not a big deal” and they just mash it together to fit😂😂
I LOVE Cryogonal. I freaked out when I had an outbreak in a convenient location and caught a dream shiny 😍
I love that you can tell Michael has just learned "Let him cook"
Also Cryogonal 4 life
It's an excellent hexagonal nightmare snowflake and no one will convince me otherwise
Im going to keep this brief because I don't really know how much longer I can go in this weird state of just sitting here thinking about what it was like to be a kid and not have the anxieties that I do today.
I just wanted to say, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for making videos. You have no idea how much I watched your videos growing up. Especially that Pokémon rap battle between Red and Ash, and your Pokémon Talk series. Even when moving in-between homes and we had no Wi-Fi. I'd be allowed like 1 hour of mobile data a week since we didn't have much on our plan. And I'd always wait for you to post a video. Seeing a new Pokémon Talk video was the highlight of my day and always got me excited and in a good mood.
Now I'm 18, I'm about to finish highschool, and I'm going to have to go make something of myself. It's scary, but I know that I can't just run. Either way, sometimes (like right now), I really wish I could go back and spend just one more day as a kid watching videos from you, Dobbs, Aura Guardian, etc.
Thank you for making 12 year old me so happy.
17:06 it looks like 3 snakes, the biggest one having a collar and a hat
Mikey:Glalie is finally cute!
Glalie: Emotional damage!😢
Every time I see Mikey made a new video I can’t help but smile I’ve been watching him since 2014 and he’s been my favorite TH-camr ever since
Vaporeon has been my favorite pokemon since i was a kid and now that i know what people have done to this cutie it makes me cry
I like how mikey uses memes with grunty boi in to now transition to sponsored segments like grunty boi is drawn to his name
6:06 That Dragopult is actually just being a good parent, Dreepys love being launched at enemies.
And to be fair they are at least 200 years old because they are ghosts from ancient times
21:30 I'm not going to lie, I was expecting a Purplecliffe meme here.
5:42 that’s what I thought about Manafee and phione at first.
another thing to consider with celebi being fairy is that celebi is associated with time, and time based moves outside of literally roar of time like future sight are psychic type
Hey guys, did you know that in terms of human companionship, Flareon is objectively the most huggable Pokemon? While their maximum temperature is likely too much for most, they are capable of controlling it, so they can set themselves to the perfect temperature for you. Along with that, they have a lot of fluff, making them undeniably incredibly soft to touch. But that's not all, they have a very respectable special defense stat of 110, which means that they are likely very calm and resistant to emotional damage. Because of this, if you have a bad day, you can vent to it while hugging it, and it won't mind. It can make itself even more endearing with moves like Charm and Baby Doll Eyes, ensuring that you never have a prolonged bout of depression ever again.
The trauma ends here. Thank you, Fr4cture
5:14 the way he exits here is genius
I actually know why Alolan Exeggutor is dragon type! In Hawaiian mythology there is a creature called a mo’o which is a mystical, magical shapeshifter most often depicted as a giant lizard, a beautiful woman, and a tree! Specific mo’o even became revered as goddesses and have major cultural, religious and historical importance such as Kihawahine.
Meme reviews equal me being very happy. Love the meme reviews. They are so so funny also thank you Katie.
My sister also has a Pokemon tattoo but it's not a huge one like that. It's also not her first one. Her first one was a little watercolor of a cat sitting on a stack of books on her left forearm. Her right shoulder however has a milotic and a Gyarados
Hau in Sun/Moon was pretty bland, but in USUM his backstory is more fleshed out and he has a well-developed character arc. Not enough people who played USUM paid attention to Hau because they figured he would be the same as in the previous games, so they missed out on one of the best-written rivals in the series.
In terms of story, Ultra butchered the Aether family pretty hard, but Hau was a major improvement. Although I do have mixed feelings about him taking away Kukui as our first battle as champion.
Hau doesn’t exist
10:16 celebi should be a fairy because it’s literally a fairy
Luz Noceda's face is perfect for the shiny hunting example.
All I'm hearing her call a Lucario a beach peach
19:53 S/M are strangely the best 3D main series Pokémon game.
Why strangely?
@@BJGvideos because of how everyone seems to look past it due to the cutscenes and the weird US/UM existing instead of a third version.
7:15 the remoraid to octillery makes sense once you see the beta sprites
Dude that Dr. Doof voice!! 👌🏻👌🏻one of the best impressions I’ve heard.
