@@863nickgoga no. If u tried grabbing it while it's in the process, the pop from it's escape could blow up in your face depending what the size and strength it is. And you can see some pokemon obliterate it when it does get out. If your a trainer, your hands are by far your greatest weapons cause your gonna need them to throw pokeballs. The pokeball automatically shuts itself tight to make the catch, so holding on to it won't affect it what so ever.
*SuperCarlinBros:* Paras and Parasect are the most forgotten pokemon in.....All of it. *Paras and Parasect in Legends Arceus:* And I took that personally.
Grass types are my favorite, and I generally like them, but in Legends, I actively use them as fodder to level up other Pokémon since they are such a nuisance.
Nearly every single Versus of theirs has John just having the time of his life while Mikey experiences the absolute worst moments of his. Even when he wins 🤣
Heavy, Leaden, and Gigaton Balls are best used with Smoke Bombs, if you get a backstrike on a Pokemon with a Gigaton Ball it's basically a guaranteed capture.
Along with the placed alphas, after you quell the frenzied noble of an area every Pokemon has a 1%-2% chance to be alpha. Thats how you found the paras and combee in the first area
But honestly gigaton balls are amazing if you know how to use them correctly. Feed an alpha a cake, sneak up on it almost touching, then throw the poke ball with the highest catch rate in the game, 9 times out of 10 you'll get the alpha.
My bestie and I get so excited when you post! It's like, "Drop everything and let's watch this!" The day gets instantly better! You never disappoint! 🤗🤗🤗
I have literally always called Bergmite Bergermeister Meisterberger since it’s inception and I cannot express the sheer joy I felt seeing that clip, thank you editor. Thank you 🥲🥲🥲
It seems you guys don't know this, so I'll just tell you- when a ball hops a small distance and only gives one smoke puff, it means you are guaranteed the catch, so if you see that, you can celebrate!
I notice how Mikey got a shiny Gliscor like in his sinnoh champion video, nice job Mikey! Also, I found my first full-odds shiny while watching this :]
I have declared that MandJTV and PokeMEN7 are my rivals, thus your names have been used for my latest playthrough of Soul Silver. :D Naturally this is out of my utmost respect for the trail blazing team sky leader and of course John. :D Seriously loving you guys and your vids and vid competitions, so entertaining! I'm older than both of you but still love what I'm seeing. And Mikey my friend I think you may actually have helped me somewhat become a better trainer, for this you have my thanks.
I actually find it interesting that you both went for strategies completely different to what I was expecting. I thought to spam mudballs or other stun items and then just gigaton ball back strike them over and over. Makes me think how I would have done in this matchup :)
Explaining the random Alphas: After quelling a Noble Frenzy of a designated area there is a chance that any pokemon will become one when you go back in to that area. That's why you had the Combee and Pachirisu respectively. ♥️
Same here. I realized that it was the only parasect I had on me, and I thought it would be funny, so I just gave it to him instead of catching a normal one.
0:55 captions: “I’m sneaking through a minefield of Paris” My brain: Mikey sneaking through a field of Paris shaped shaped tank topplers congratulating John on his alpha
That's cool and all, but you know what's really satisfying? Catching the magnezone that flies over the Coronet Highlands on your first throw with a jet ball.
This was fun to watch. I stopped playing after 3 days or so to go back to Digimon Cyber Sleuth. If I play the game like you guys did, it may make things interesting to have competitions among friends.
Not sure if you've noticed this, but if it has 1 smoke it is an automatic capture. The only way to increase the odds of getting it is a backstrike or you can backstrike it with your pokemon and it will stun it in battle, which while it's stunned, you will also have increased odds. Just something I figured out.
I love watching him struggle against Darkrai. Cause Darkrai apparently loves me I threw my first pokeball it was a feather ball wasn't even a backstrike and it was caught first try no battle. And to clarify FEATHER ball not wing or jet the loset class feather
In the Kanto games Paras/Parasect are the best Grass types. They aren't part Poison unlike the rest & being part Bug is useful for Sabrina's Gym using Leech Life and Spore! Also, YAY GRUNTY BOI WE LOVE HIM AND WANT MORE REGION PLAYTHROUGHS OF HIS!!! Ain't anything wrong with erotic feelings towards Gardevoir or other Female Pokemon.
No paras/parsect are the worst grass types in gen 1 they have 3 4x weaknesses and don't learn and good stab, also strength does more damage than leach life to psychics. though Paras is surprisingly a good hm slave its easy to catch and learns cut and dig, so Ironically it is my most used grass type for this reason
@@stephenlewis4197 I have beaten Sabrina's entire team with a Parasect before, using the combination of Leech Life and Spore. Therefore you are highly mistaken.
@@morrigankasa570 I mean yeah but outside of Sabrina Paras Doesn't have much use. for grass types Victreebels Wrap + always crit razor leaf, and Executors Psychic typing are both extremely powerful I will admit though that it can work really well in the late game with catching mons, also to clear anything up I'm talking just rby, and not the remakes, where parasect gets far better
@@stephenlewis4197 I'm talking both RBY & Fire Red/Leaf Green myself. In RBY Parasect is better then Bulbasaur Line just cause of Typing since Psychic stuff was so potent in Gen 1. In Fire Red/Leaf Green vastly better then Bulbasaur Line not just cause of Typing but also moveset potential. In Leaf Green that was when I decimated Sabrina's Gym with a Parasect. It was the 3rd time I played Leaf Green and decided to see if Bulbasaur got better...they got only slightly better but mainly post game due to Sludge Bomb. I attempted to sweep Sabrina's Gym with my Lvl 60 Venusaur and got destroyed by it(could sweep that Gym with Charizard or Blastoise easily). Anyway ever since Gen 2 and breeding was introduced I only ever used Pokemon I captured at Lvl 6 or less(or bred/hatched) my options where very limited; Nidoking & Nidoqueen though decent Lvl being poison type wasn't a good option, I considered Pidgeot but didn't have any Super Effective move other then Thief, Fearow same issue as Pidgeot but even worse had absolutely no Super Effective move, Raticate also didn't have a Super Effective move and it's most powerful move wasn't 100% Accurate, I was left with only 2 valid options Gyarados or Parasect. Gyarados had Bite for a Super Effective move but without Flinch Luck could be destroyed due to low-ish Defenses, so that left me with Parasect because had Spore Attack and Effect Spore ability as well as Leech Life which was Super Effective against Psychic Types and healed it's user especially when combined with Leftovers adding more healing potential.
I feel like it would be remiss not to inform you of the fact that I have started calling paras and parasect bullies because of this video. I didn’t even notice I was doing it until I got spotted by a parasect and said, out loud at 2am, “oh, it’s just john’s bully”. Hopefully you find humor in the fact that you have single-handedly changed my automatic name of a Pokémon that has existed since 1996.
One time the alpha hippowdon followed me all the way to that camp that’s nearby and it vanished when I slept. I have never been more scared for my life in a Pokémon game.

If Pokémon were real and to try to catch a Pokémon if you held the ball shut then they couldn’t get out! Right? 🤔
@@863nickgoga no. If u tried grabbing it while it's in the process, the pop from it's escape could blow up in your face depending what the size and strength it is.

Raid justs loves this guy
no
I love it that when Mikey is having the worst time, Johns just living his best life, dancing and laughing. Respect my friend
And then John got mugged by a Darkrai
you know what they say ribbit ribbit
Wait how did you comment 11 hours ago but the video was posted 10 hours ago
Yeah
And then the table turns
I still don't get why Mikey didn't use more of my strategies in this
Ignorance is bliss, I guess ahu
He was giving you a chance by not. If he had, you would’ve lost horribly
Run around with no clue awesome strategy john is smart
He underestimated the power of going for the bootycheeks
wynaut..?
*SuperCarlinBros:* Paras and Parasect are the most forgotten pokemon in.....All of it.
*Paras and Parasect in Legends Arceus:* And I took that personally.
( Sniff) Paras: "Smell like spore in here! Cuz y'all been sleeping on us!"
Grass types are my favorite, and I generally like them, but in Legends, I actively use them as fodder to level up other Pokémon since they are such a nuisance.
They were nothing more than targets for my darling Quilava.
they finally made a great use for them despite being utterly useless 99% of the time
Nearly every single Versus of theirs has John just having the time of his life while Mikey experiences the absolute worst moments of his. Even when he wins 🤣
☠️☠️ for Mikey ☠️☠️
it’s why they work so well together: funny, contradictory actions that compliments one another
3:27 I’m jealous that John caught the Alpha infernape in one jet ball when it took me 80 in the overworld and it still didn’t catch
Rip
Rip
Rip
Rip
Rest in pieces
Heavy, Leaden, and Gigaton Balls are best used with Smoke Bombs, if you get a backstrike on a Pokemon with a Gigaton Ball it's basically a guaranteed capture.
Ok
Or food (assuming nothing else is too close).
Those balls have a better catch rate but they don't fly as far since they're heavy (obviously)
Smoke Bombs are off limits for this challenge.
Is Razz berry not allowed in this challenge? Kinda surprised both of them not using it.
Mikey has a new Pokemon to add to his 'pokemon that have wronged me' list - Alpha Hippowdon 🤣
I love how Grunty Boy is simultaneously does an add spot, AND roasts Mikey for being bad at the game. Just makes it that much better.
*Boi and ad
Funny that we have never seen them in the same frame,if they really are two different people
Is it just me who also feels John’s pain in hunting something and then seeing something you need for the dex?
I've seen this video more times than i can count and John saying: "No don't protect your babes, they're not important" gets me every time.
I’m so excited Mikey is doing more legends arceus!
Same, Legends Arkoos is so entertaining to both watch and play!
@@shinyeevee37 I know, right? And the shiny hunting method is so fun!
Same my dude
it’s nice seeing my favorite Pokémon naturally bigger than normal.
Oh wow without battling, this is wack
Along with the placed alphas, after you quell the frenzied noble of an area every Pokemon has a 1%-2% chance to be alpha. Thats how you found the paras and combee in the first area
Here's a tip Mikey: If you are too far and hit a Pokemon without the Pokeball working, the Alpha won't see you because you are out of its range.
I couldn't wait to see you do challenges for Pokemon Legends Arceus and I was right so. these challenges are so good
But honestly gigaton balls are amazing if you know how to use them correctly. Feed an alpha a cake, sneak up on it almost touching, then throw the poke ball with the highest catch rate in the game, 9 times out of 10 you'll get the alpha.
Ok
The reference at 19:55 made me so happy that I actually can't stop smiling.
I heard someone make that joke about Bergmite years ago. I never knew it was an actual reference.
My bestie and I get so excited when you post! It's like, "Drop everything and let's watch this!" The day gets instantly better! You never disappoint! 🤗🤗🤗
I feel like Grunty Boi is becoming his own personality, if he hasn’t already, with all the sass he gave Mikey about not doing well. xD
When Mikey posts, my day immediately gets so much better! Tysm Mikey! ☺️

It feels so jolly when MandJ TV gets an update
I feel a hidden reference here~...
Mikey: is losing badly to john who isn't even trying
Darkrai: I gotchu fam
Grunty boi should play Legends Arceus I would love to see his reaction to the alpha pokemon and the Lord battles
YAS PLS
I didn't know how much I needed this in my life until now.
I sure wonder what Grunty Boi would use….
Ok

I can be having a bad day but once Mikey uploads, it becomes so much better
I notice how Mikey got a shiny Gliscor like in his sinnoh champion video, nice job Mikey! Also, I found my first full-odds shiny while watching this :]
I love how Mikey just fails to catch alphas because he’s always too far away
Congratulations on the win Mikey!! I always root for you in these challenges.
Ok
@@KyogresBiggestFan ok
That parasect was the first alpha I ever caught, and I'm glad to see Mikey is struggling just as much as I did when I first caught it.
Paras was my first random shiny
Now I use it as a false swiper
My first alpha was a Tangela. My second was Kricketune.
I’m so happy they are playing this game.
Ok

That Pachirisu is Alpha before completing the area
i gave an alpha parasect to the dude who wanted a parasect for the request, and now some dude has a huge parasect in his house
Me to and when I walk in SSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCTTTTT
Same here. I realized that it was the only parasect I had on me, and I thought it would be funny, so I just gave it to him instead of catching a normal one.
"Parasect is the scariest pokemon in the game"
I couldn't agree more. *Having a PTSD flashback right now*
I love how they were just jumping off the cliffs... 🤣🤣🤣

Hail yeah
That's cool and all, but you know what's really satisfying? Catching the magnezone that flies over the Coronet Highlands on your first throw with a jet ball.
20:45. Is the “I can’t ask gardevoir to show me her booty” thing the exact opposite of what Purplecliffe would do?
The major league audio while John was practicing pitching is outstanding work
Yknow what... yeah John has a point, why add pokeballs specifically for long distance if there's a limit to how far you can throw them
It's mainly to catch flying Pokémon, they don't just have a longer range, they also move faster.
I am aware of this, it's just that I think Wing balls should have a longer range before they go *boonk* on the pokemon
No one is talking about how funny the editing is for “plan Geronimo”😂😂
Fun fact of the day: Darkrai is 4'11
Thank you for the fact he also has legs
Another fact
Darkrai is a Pokémon
i love how Mikey and John are like Paras and Parassect are the scariest in the game and i´m sitting here like:
have you met Alpha Tangrowth?
This was fun to watch. I stopped playing after 3 days or so to go back to Digimon Cyber Sleuth. If I play the game like you guys did, it may make things interesting to have competitions among friends.
