I THINK I WILL!!!
Genshin Impact but different lol

Sponsored by BOTH Genshin and Honkai? Man, mihoyo loves them MandJTV's XD
genshin but better
Idk if anyone else has mentioned this but according to players, Blissey and Chansey actually approach injured players and heal them before running away, instead of immediately running away like normal :')) I think it's kinda sweet, some players use this as an advantage to catch them though
Might explain their extreme rarity in the modern times.
Wrong i tripped by a alpha blissey and got obliterated
@@jupistar756 alphas are coded to be aggressive
@@jupistar756 yeah sometimes their bigger nature just makes them more territorial
@@jupistar756 they made alphas naturally aggressive no matter what the species
"Paras has a lot of guts for a Pokemon with two four times weaknesses."
I think the fact that it used to have three and grew out of one of them has gotten to its head and it hasn't moved past it.
What was the third?
@@ruchick6155 Back in Gen I, Bug was weak to Poison and vice versa. So it had a quad weakness to Fire, Flying, and Poison.
isnt it th eonly mon to have a 6x weakness with its ability?
@@animationpug149 no
I played a red & blue emulator & named 1 "Mario"
I love how the "they're simple and beautiful and they make me happy" audio is James from Team Rocket talking about his prized bottlecap collection lol 14:58
Idk why my brain brought this up but it went "Damn James would be hella rich in Fallout" and now my brain is attempting to imagine the scenario
James is one of the best Pokémon villains
Loved that episode
@@r.j.penfoldcoughing use chemical warfare!
@@r.j.penfold except he’d be a miser and wouldn’t part with his precious bottlecaps 😩
Fun fact, people are surprised by the white flutes sound because that twinkling sound when you start the game only happens in diamond and pearl.
If you have platinum, it just starts with giratina's scream of the damned.
It does play at the intro but if you have the patience of a 9 year old like I did
You're probably gonna skip that as fast as possible.
It's also in Platinum, at the very start when you boot up the game in the intro scene.
@@BMeiome13hey consider indulging in reading the full comment
I'm loving how Mikey is no longer annoyed about Grunty Boi's presence in these sponsor clips, the relationship dynamic between these two characters is becoming better as MK is inviting GB to play the sponsor game! It's well thought out and nice scripting :]
To be real though, Grunty Boi was one of the best decisions he has ever made, next to calling Arceus "Arkoos".
It’s almost like Mikey and Grunty Boi are the same person… they’ve grown so much
@@notendorpyxel I think there needs to be a Team Rocket grunt in future games if Team Rocket makes a return with the catchphrase "Haha it is i! *Insert grunt name here* and i am here to steal your money and/or Pokemon!
That would be legendary.
It's literally the same person just relaxed
Mikey is there going to be a MBF season 3. Or an MML season 2
Lol I loved the “what? The cleffa is hard to find?!” While it was talking about the Unown in the flowers
I was looking to see if anyone else had realised to lol
Yeah it’s pretty funny
Yeah, it was hard for me to find it at first
Actually it makes sense that Paras is more aggressive than many other Pokemon, specifically *because* it has two x4 weaknesses and low stats. And it works too, since everyone's trying to avoid it now.
EFFING GENIUS
those motherf-
The most painful thing is that I had a buizel but evolved it before I knew about the request
Paras: ...
Ghandi from Civ games: ...
Both: IMMENSE AND CHAOTIC VIOLENCE!!!!
But they really aren’t that bad
I think we can all agree that the Markiplier Smash Pokerap is top tier with how well that guy executed it.
Yes
I love how Grunty Boy isn’t even annoying anymore and Mikey treats him like an old friend.
its because Mikey's just so used to him showing up at the most inconvenient times that hes prob like "eh whatever, may as well be nice."
The character development has been lovely XD
mikey:says that on a scale from 1 to 10 hes an 11 when it comes to pokemon
Me:TELL ME WHATS THE THE MOST RARE THING IN POKEMON TELL ME HOW DO YOU CUT GRASS TELL ME WHAT HAPPRNS WHEN YOU CUT GRASS ON MEWS ISLAND TELL ME........actually thats all i got.
Mikey:..... Gimme 5 secondes.
I love the slow progression from Mikey being terrified of grunty boy, to being mildly annoyed, to becoming genuine friends, I love the writing in these sponsorships.
Same lol😂
Fun random fact: I was hunting alphas to mark them down to make my money grinding session easier and I came across my current Shiny Alpha Yanmega
Awesome, I love that shiny
Bro i killed an shiny alpha sneasel😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@deletemychannelsomeonemy condolences 🙏
12:19 in pokemon let’s go pikachu and Eevee you’re allowed to do that to them, I think it’s fair
The friendship developing between Mikey and grunty boi is so heartwarming.
Also "I'm enjoying my beard. And beards and anime girls are mutually exclusive things.... Usually." Had me rolling.
“I think I have misjudged my place in the circle…” had me DYING 🤣
“Beards and anime girls are mutually exclusive…
…usually.”
That one got me good! XD
People out here just ignoring that we got THREE new pronunciations in this video.
"POKE-Min."
"Are-SAY-us."
"Gar-KHOMP."
The first shiny I found in Legends Arceus was a Drifblim but I accidentally OHKO’d it, the second one I found was a Drifloon! So it’s kind of like the game felt bad for me losing the the drifblim that it gave me it again
next time save before you go for it
@@citra3150 silence witch bot. You cannot fool me.
its like it reincarnated itself just to be caught by you
Heads up RapisGames copied your comment
@@maryroberts2709 Is that someone in the comments of this video?
BTW Mikey, I've noticed that most alphas take 4 sticky globs to stun the first time and less than or equal to 4 times any other times
Except the Alpha Garchomp which takes 5.
That's, good to know actually
But the recipe is so freaking expensive tho.
@@RGC_animation you can buy sticky globs…
I used Oshawott. I’ve never played b/w/b2/w2 so this was a new one for me. He was actually my best Pokémon for the entire game. He delivered the final blow on Giratina.
I love how he mistook an unown for a cleffa kills me every time
Just proves how hard it is to find unowns
I caught a shiny alpha infernape and named him Pinky the other day, originally I was using alpha infernape and blissey for exp but it was still worth it traveling back and worth across the obsidian fields
I found a shiny alpha alakazam but I wasn’t high enough level and it beat my team
@@mallard777 rip
Something I noticed about the Avalug boss fight- it’s not a glitch. The Avavlug is massive and placed far enough away that if you don’t hit him directly with your pokeball to start a battle, the ball just drops off the cliff and returns to you. The ball actually has to land on something to instigate battle, and unfortunately the only option is either the Pokémon itself or maybe the edge of the arena.
Yeah that happned to me too, I was annoyed and then realized he's humongus and the character is on a limited space so the points where you CAN hit is also limited
strangely enough, i subconsciously figured this out got it on the second try,, the first try was tough since i didnt know the patterns so i died miserably
weirdly enough, Avavlug was the easiest noble for me to fight - others just kept killing me but with that one, the attack pattern was very easy to figure out (and my team was op due to me doing every side quest I could before going for it)
that is still a glitch
@@misamisaa4547 I've yet to fight avavlug, but that electrode was a B to fight.
17:14 I don't use voltorb often but it will hold a special place in my heart cause my first shiny was voltorb in legends Arceus the funniest part is I did not realize it was shiny until I watched pm7 vs manddjtv where they were doing a shiny vid and I saw the shiny had sparkles and I had been wondering why my voltorb had sparkles next to it then I looked up the legends arceus sprite and realized it was shiny lol
You didn't notice that it was a different color than the other ones? That part didn't strike you as odd?
Mine was a golduck
@@fivestarguy100 maybe it was the only one they had seen in the game up to that point
Seeing that trainer do some Monster hunter dodge rolls made me realise how few people actually know of that series.
And it reminded me of the adept guild style. So many easy mounts as an sns main.
17:31 Ok that one got me good, that is probably the most badass saying that is also perfectly matches with the design basis.
Thank you 😊
11:45 the fact he missed the Unown when it's the focus of the video really shows how annoyingly hidden those things were
Glad I’m not the only one who noticed the Unown. When he said Cleffa I thought my eyes were failing 😂
Lol I was Dying
Thank god, I was scrolling hoping to find someone that noticed lol I thought I was going crazy
20:07 Wait the Pokémon now know the backstrike method aswell?…
9:48 when Ursaluna does the dance you can just hold the joystick forward and it cancels the animation and gets you moving again
Yes, sticky globs are just really good mud balls. Sticky globs will auto stun normal pokemon and it takes 3 to stun an alpha. Mud balls seemed to be about 1/3 as effective as a sticky glob
Don't forget they only require 1 mud ball, 1 spoiled apricorn and 1 caster fern and they only cost around 800 poké each so they can be easily bought as well
@@thewitheredsoul2367 and all the materials are easy af to find
6:20 I feel called out - I caught everything possible before this moment as well and got my team to 100, due to me trying to shiny hunt Lilligant.
I got a random one while walking around lmao
I can explain why when a Pokémon sees you and the new ones that spawn know that you are there,
The Pokémon that saw you would probably tell the other Pokémon like “hey, there’s a trainer in the grass and they threw a poke ball at me” and then they know that you’re there. Either that or something else
2:33 actually whenever a pokemon hits the edge it's not that it despawns, it's that for whatever reason when a pokemon falls it's like they are effects by the gravity of the fucking sun and just disappear below
Melli is somehow more detestable than his modern day counterpart Avery, but redeems himself a bit by his line about Cresselia being a croissant.
How is he in any way related to Avery?
Not only do they not have any physical similarities, but Avery comes from a long lineage of psychics and last time I checked Melli has no psychic powers.....
@@ExcalibeonSwordofEeveelutions okay hear me out--how funny would it be if the reason Melli is such a jerk all the time is because he's tired of hearing everybody's thoughts
@@skullaby8341 XD
Melli is very clearly the ancestor of Jupiter. Why does everyone keep saying Avery? Sure, they're both assholes, but they look nothing alike.
Hey, at least at the end, he gave you 3 Candy Truffle, whatever that does.
I wasn't able to catch it on camera, but earlier today I was battling a Hippopotas and it ran away from me... into a tree. It was just... dangling there. I encountered it in a battle and it looked like it was a branch growing out of the tree. Hilarious.
Something similar happened to me yesterday, a Pachirisu was going after some food I threw at it, and it just... walked up a tree. The food despawned, and it just sat in the tree for a while.
He's just dangling there, MENICINGLY
This happened to me but with a bidoof
When mikey said “save the game” it reminded me of when I found my first shiny ever and didn’t know saving before catching was a concept, I got mad ptsd of when I lost bidoof
I had my first shiny fail EVER just yesterday, coincidentally in this game actually.
It was an alpha Electabuzz, and it's actually one of my favorite colors (I like a lot of pinks and pink variations).
It killed itself with recoil, and took out nearly half of my fully-evolved story playthrough party.
Rip
14:25 Mikey's laugh got me
17:32 *And I am a flightless Birrrrddd*
About the Noble Avalugg fight: You're supposed to hit the white circle thing. I missed that multiple times as well. Fortunately, I committed the stupid and beat it without fighting it
Edit: I also beat Origin Dialga without hitting it once with a Pokémon
No you accidentally commit a Chad move
11:46 He's talking about the unknown and I know that because I also found that unknown looking for clefa
The Geodude just wanted to say "Its over Anakin I have the high ground"
the Alpha Vespiquen in the tree was mine! So cool to see a reaction to it 😁 thanks for sharing it with your community!
Damn bro that’s pretty awesome
Ima scard now
Do you have the answer of how it fit yet
I think this it was a alpha combee i found one and evolotion
My favourite pokemon is Vespiquen. Did you end up losing, running or catching it?
So, the thing with Alphas spinning, is that if you stand juuuuuust outside their aggro range, a little bug triggers where the game simultaneously thinks it knows you're there, and that it *doesn't* know you're there, so they start to continuously trigger the "engage the invader" thing, only to promptly remember "Oh, wait, you're too far away," over and over again. Hence, the spinning.
that haunter be like:
OK I PULL UP
i had caught an alpha buizel- in fact it was literally my first alpha so when i got the quest to give it away, i was hesitant because i wanted to keep it. but i didn't have anything else so i did it
and i'm so glad i caught it in the first place now
Tip: don’t walk on foot in the space-time rifts. Run around with Wyrdeer.
In my experience is better to do this while riding sneasler because she's just fast enough to avoid event Pokemon if you keep moving but has better control and turning than wyedeer
Anotehr tip, when the Rifts are still "charging up", get inside and hide inside the grass until the rift is ready, the pokemons will pop up but won't see you.
If there's grass outside the rift that connects to grass in the rift, sneak in that way and you might also be safe.
Right before I moved out of my old place last week, I ended up getting my first (and currently, only) shiny alpha: a Purugly. I named it after my cat, because it was a month after I had lost my pet cat, so it was like Arceus decided to treat me well.
sorry about your cat but happy you got a shiny
Right before getting grounded from my phone last month I got my first shiny and it was a shiny LUXIO
@@williamthompson3308 Great!
Sorry for your lost
11:13
Dude for me the avalugg fight was the hardest. It took me so many tries.
The spongebob "UGH" sound fits perfectly on that Gliscor when it does that 😂😂😂
Voltorb outbreaks are horrifying. The’re ones where once they pissed they all pissed and they use self destruct which will stagger you long enough for another to come over and explode.
Getting caught by one basically guarantees a black out.
Nice to know that the bomb still had bombs 200 years ago!
As I read this I blacked out twice from one-
@@jvinny_ i think i blacked out more then twice since i spent over an HOUR grinding them for a shiny.
Funny enough I discovered you can cheese them and avoid the explosion chain by standing on the broken pillars 😅 🤣 they won't explode while you're up there
@@abyssalrose6948 I'm trying this
The Pokémon behaviours are interesting, like when shellos just hanged out and magicarp followed me a little bit like seagull I had just fed (I was trying to feed the carps) and some Pokémon are unexpectedly aggressive
*magikarp
Mfw the cute puppy wants to kill you but this giant goo dragon with a shell that can definitely crush you behaves like a happy puppy around you and wants to cuddle with you

What I feared most was Paras and not only Paras , but a Paras SWARM
I used Oshawott in Legends Arceus , I have no regrets , and Ceaseless Edge helped me out a lot
One the one hand, I love that paras and parasect's agressive and swarming lines up with them being "zombies".
However, they can take a backseat to Hippototas and Hippowdon. Our blood feud will be legendary.

honestly I can relate to him with the buizel. literally the first buizel I caught after I got the quest was big enough. oh did I mention that it was shiny.
16:55
What would you rate your Pokémon knowledge
Mandjtv: You merely adopted the Pokémon in your career, I WAS BORN IN IT, MOLDED BY IT.
LMAO XD
I love how Mikey used to get so mad when GB came on and now he’s just like “hey man what’s up” in the most casual tune
The interaction between Mikey and Grunty Boi is going from a rivalry to a friendship. Wholesome 100
😎🔥🔥th-cam.com/video/uO_8u-ctBxs/w-d-xo.html
I watched this a year ago and when Mikey said “I haven’t gotten a shiny alpha yet” I was happy cuz I wasn’t the only one, BRO IT HAS BEEN A YEAR I STILL HAVENT GOTTEN A SHINY ALPHA
The springlock audio tho😂 For those who don’t understand about the “Michael don’t leave me here” It is from five nights at Freddy’s where the murderer of five children who later possess the animatronics is getting impaled to death and his son, Michael tries to kill him.
That Buizel thing sucked so much for me. I first saw the quest while I had a large enough Buizel on my team as a placeholder for eventually Basculegion... I ended up evolving it into Floatzel and didn't get a single Buizel big enough for like 3 hours of just Buizel hunting
Yeah it's a total grind. It's all about patience.
I found a alpha one before I got the mission and caught it then released it cause I didnt want it I regret everything
yeah pretty much just got an alpha buizel, dumped it for the quest and moved on lol
8:38
Palkia: I wish you could take up all of *my time.*
Dialga: hee hee.
"Sounds good, anime girl brother.
Very wise words from a GRUNTY BOI.
2:25 Literally just pulled out a stand
11:22 it didn’t glitch. The game just doesn’t let you throw your mons that far. I think it’s safer to throw them onto the front of the platform you’re on.
He let the button go too early. There’s no way to spam throwing.
@@pocketplayer33 I think he let the button go too late, actually. The length of the button press affects the distance of the throw, I’ve found.
Maybe he didn’t stun it yet
Hot take, Sabi and Ress are just as surprisingly scary as Volo. Ress with his Lv. 60 bidoof, starly, and shinx, then Sabi with Rhyperior, Magmortar, and Electivire in a 3v1 battle then immediately a Braviary. Not as hard, but it catches you off guard.
Sabi is definitely the toughest of the 3v1 battles. Usually the extra Pokémon are just weaker backup for the main one, but Magmortar and Rhyperior can actually be fairly dangerous themselves if you're not prepared to take both on.
Oh yeah, I was definitely caught off guard by Sabi's Pokemon. You would think such a character wouldn't have powerful Pokemon but holy cow did I underestimate it.
A ground type will wreck sabi tho
@@pixelturtle5041 earthquake doesn't hit adjacent mons anymore and i'm not even sure if it's in the gane
@@PRAISENOBEASTHAN Ik that earth quake isnt in the game, but earth power/high horsepower works just fine
For the ones who didn’t understand the joke on 22:11 first the sound was William Afton telling to his son “Michael” to not let hi get burned in the fire in the pizzeria if I remember well also the joke is like that he is trapped and screaming to not let him in there
Also if I had a nickel for every time I died to one of those little fellas I would have 4 nickels
Mikey: beards and anime girls are mutually exclusive
Me, automatically under my breath: only if you're a coward
The Chimchar one reminds me of what happened yesterday when I was trying to catch a Pichu and tossed my Umbreon's Pokeball just as it despawned. Umbreon's ball flew right over the edge of the cliff. And I've had a similar thing to Vespiquen. I was in a Distortion and I had a shaking tree and out spawned a Alpha Burmy I'm like omfg!
I don't think it's the space time distortion that caused it but cool coincidence!
That bit with the Buizel gives me conniptions man. Took me like an hour to finally get one that’s the right size. Problem is, it was a SHINY! So then I ran around looking for another one and that took like an hour and a half. While I think the experience made Buizel one of of not my favorite water type (weirdly enough,) I’ll never get those hours back
I have 70 hours in legends arceus, I’ve fully completed the Pokédex, found all wisps, beat Volo, did most of the quests.
*And I’ve found 1 shiny*
-Aha! It's me the village's cook! I'm a ninja! -Will you kill me with a well placed ninja star? -No! I will make you battle my my half assed trained poky-mans!
Zubat: I am the most annoying Pokemon of all time!
Paras: Hold my shrooms
The fact that Mikey is cool with Grunty Boi’s sponsors is actually kinda wholesome.
That Mr. Mime guy was hilarious
"They're f*cking with ME!"
Fun fact about Mewtwo, the gene recombination process that created it also made it half human, so Mewtwo's birth circumstances are not irrelevant, they are one of the reasons why people can have questionable interests in Pokémon.
15:45 I also got a shiny Gyrados, and ALSO named it Bloodbath!
That surprised me that we came up with the same nickname for the same Pokémon!
If I had a nickel...
I actually managed to find three full odds shiny Pokémon in legends arceus (excluding the guaranteed shiny ponyta from one of the requests)
I got a shiny gyarados but I named mine 'shiny water serpent' in elvish (Sílalhim)
Funnily enough, Origin Dialga does in fact have it’s mouth still! The piece covering where it’s mouth would be flips up like a helmet’s visor when it uses Roar of Time! I have yet to see if Origin Palkia is in the same boat, but I still was very shocked
Can confirm that Origin Palkia also has a mouth plate but it flips downward like Optimus Prime’s battle mask. Seems like the main staple of an origin forme, movable face plates
24:17 I didn’t know about the regional forms of the starters so I just picked the one that I liked the final form and had never seen in game.
11:45
Bro Michael thinking that the guy found a Clefa and not an Unown despite it literally being right there is very funny
I never knew that the buizel quest had a height requirement, I had already caught one and just gave it the first random one from the pasture I saw. I had no clue people were struggling with it so much😂
The height limit for buizel that i saw was 2 foot 7 inches, and the guy wanted one that was at minimum 2 foot 8 inches. Literally just catch an alpha one and call it a day lol
The Buizel Quest was so easy for me I just caught 2 and then I already had one
I just decided to give him an alpha buizel, that's it.
You'll know when you get one because a research task for Buizel is, you guessed it, catching big ones. I'm just glad I didn't have to show him every last one.
@@1tsJustKetchup the max for regular buizel is 2.7 you need to give him an alpha
My first white out/black out was from accidentally boosting off a cliff with wyrdeer, I also beat all of the lords except avalugg without dying.
It was pretty neat.
I lost to Arcanine and Electrode, but I beat Avalugg without issue.
Did you know that you can fall off a significantly higher distance from Wyrdeer without fainting than if you were to fall off normally.

Just yesterday, I was traveling around to collect some of the wisps and I randomly encountered a shiny alpha lopunny. Scared the crap outta me cuz it just happened outta nowhere
Same I was just trying to alpha buziel for the side quest and when I was in the water I saw a shiny alpha Magikarp I was so excited
Omg u r so lucky, Lopunny is my favorite normal type! (Not for adult reasons I find that ppl making r34 out of it is gross.)
I love it's design and love bunnies
Where did u find it?
@@anime_idiot2717 the alpha is located south of the giant tree in the obsidian fieldlands.

Until you regain your senses and understand it's ,, just a lopunny lol.

I also appreciate the Blacephalon :D
I can not f____ wait for Legends Pizza. Arceus was the best game i played in the past 10 years
I just realized that in Pokemon Legends Arceus the potato Mochi on the plate when they give it to you looks pretty identical to the tumble stones that you used to make Pokeballs
So if the potato mochi goes stale could you use it to make pokeballs?
For anyone wondering, the rap part is done by Cam Steady who has several other extremely well made Pokémon related music
21:55 ah, the classic A-Pose, a team fortress 2 specialty
13:10 We confirm that Mr. Mime ain't creeps, they're just anoying
Y'know 17:28 gives me a particular hearty chuckle because a friend of mine plan's to play a kuo-toa in a future D&D campaign that thinks it is a chicken, and he said that exact line, just reminds me of that and how it made me laugh
My first Shiny in Legends was a Glalie. I was in the Icelands, just exploring around and trying to complete the Pokedex, and I was a little bored and crouched down in the snow, waiting for a good opportunity to catch this Ambipom I just found. As I'm sitting there, this Shiny Glalie just drifts into my field of vision, casual as can be. My excitement-level immediately hits the roof, since I normally have very horrible luck finding Shinies, and I excitedly catch it in an Ultra Ball.
My second Shiny was a Magmar. There was a Magmar outbreak, which I didn't care about, but I had to go to the volcano anyway because I needed a Magby. I fast-traveled to the volcano, summoned Braviary, and looked down as the Magmar swarm spawned in, only to see the Shiny amongst them. I excitedly dropped down, caught it, and it is now a Magmortar.
my first and second shinys were both starly
My first and second shinys were both Sneasle's and the fist Sneasle was an alpha.
My first shiny was a tentacool that ambushed me
The fact that grunty boi and Mickey, both broke the four wall is crazy
As soon as I saw GruntyBoi I thought of the TikTok where someone is chased and they were say “Like a good neighbor State Farm is there” and then a State Farm employee appears and is immediately terrified
Someone animate a monocle onto the moment where Mikey laughs during the two electivires.
So classy, aw haw haw haw haw
7:55
Here's a minor tip I used for the Buizel job:
Catching big Buizel is also a research task on your Pokédex. If you nab a Buizel and see some progress made on this task, then it's rather likely to be big enough for that request. Showing him every individual Buizel you catch is unnecessary and only adds on to the time you'll spend here. Just be observant and efficient. Catch the things until the game itself says you got a big one.
This isn't foolproof because the threshold for it to tick off that research task is lower than the necessary 2'8". Still it at least narrows it down.
3:00 yes, every single day for the past 16 years
