SPOILER BELOW: Oh man I thought it was a wrap when Zygarde started showing up near basically every catch John was making towards the end. I totally forgot about Zekrom! What a thrilling finish!
I'm a really big fan of this new concept where you HAVE to catch the first shiny you see that applies to the letter, no matter how bad it is. It's a great change-up from the usual "just catch the strongest thing you can find but you can take your time looking for a certain Pokemon".
Every time I see these mods of Pokémon Sword & Shield, where Shiny Pokémon are visible, it makes me wish that the actual games had visible Shiny Pokémon in the hub world.
Yeah it was just dumb tbh. I say as someone who REALLY wanted a shiny galarian zig soon as possible and spent hours making sure I entered a battle with every zig that spawned. Still wish shinies in Scarlet and Violet also had a sparkle effect when roaming bc they're so easy to miss with how many Pokemon spawn
@@RainbyFIN And it's especially egregious when the Let's Go games, both of which were released a year before Sword and Shield were released, had Pokémon in the overworld, including Shiny Pokémon.
That's giving Sintendo too much credit to be able to do anything without stabbing themselves in the foot multiple times per nanosecond and then blaming the fans.

Getting some serious flashbacks from "Catch The Right Size Pokémon to Win" (JMC S2) with Mikey winning the challenge because of numerous ties, but also with "We Pick Random Legendaries and Race to Find Them" (JMC S1) where John figured Mikey has an Arceus because Mikey slipped referencing its nickname (Godfish) with how John figured Mikey caught a Heatran just with the laugh.
2:54 As soon as he said he didn't find a Pokemon with a B name my mind immediately went "He's getting a Basculin" Literally 5 seconds after that thought 😂😂
It would be cool if y'all did one of these but did the base stat totals as cumulative, like after the A round Michael is up by 55 points, and then whoever catches the most base stat points throughout the whole alphabet wins
The result would still be the same, except it'd be a complete blowout. Cumulatively, Mikey held the lead for the entire alphabet (John almost caught up during J, where after that round, Mikey only led by 18 points) and ended up with an 872 point lead by the end. Tied rounds don't help with comebacks when using a cumulative scoring (tiebreakers gave John the lead midway in the actual video), while overkill wins (stuff like Diancie vs. Duskull or Palkia vs. Pyukumuku, which Mikey got more of) matter a lot more using a cumulative score.
I remember at one point I was like "Oh hey, the future paradox names might be stupid, but there's more I options for the JMC" and now this challenge was made in Galar again, whoops
0:20 wait what the hell, they using the Abroad in Japan Journey Across Japan intro song that took me by surprise hahaha, I know it ain't a copyright thing but it's nice to hear them use it, kinda like this series right now since it's a Journey Across the Pokemon World
Lately I've been noticing that Mikey likes more things alike to me than just pokemon, the Zelda shirt, and the fairy tail cosplay, glad to enjoy the content of fellow nerds.
I actually got an ad about LEGO Fortnite about building the Tilted Towers just as this moment happened. They weren't lying, those towers really were "tilted"!

John went from missing a jirachi to finding a shiny one. Im so proud.

2:05 a giant Roserade standing alone in the middle of the ocean gives massive final boss vibes
Hey there ya little toad....why don't you hippity hop for me 😂 and it DID!
That was so cute
I love that both John Michaels gave us some good fake out performances this battle~

17:41 I love the way John was just silent and looked down and they went to the next round without saying anything else😂
19:20 I love that Mikey's favorite mythical is Marshadow, cause Marshadow is my favorite Pokemon!
2:54
As soon as he said he didn't find a Pokemon with a B name my mind immediately went
"He's getting a Basculin"
Literally 5 seconds after that thought 😂😂
26:39 the joke simply writes itself
They focus blasted the second Stakataka
6:20 He's standing there... MENACINGLY!
All hail the slowbro!!😂
I thought this was coming tomorrow but this is way better
It was supposed to upload yesterday but due to technical difficulties it was uploaded today instead
Michael’s laugh is so cute. John humors Mikey! I love seeing the smiles. It’s all in good fun!
We had both 6-9 and also 9-11 scores in this video 😂
John bamboozling Mikey on the B was great lmao
21:52 nice 👍
hey i was boutta type that
Nice.
The Abroad in Japan music keeps throwing me for a loop! Great choice though.
😂
Mikey losing his absolute mind is my favorite thing to watch🎉
28:32 when mom says yes to McDonald’s
Heck yes!!
3:29 the way he tricked him is so funny 😂😂
I think if John’s Zygarde had Power Construct, it should’ve counted as its 100% forme
22:25 the realization got me dead 💀
Congrats Mikey that was so clutch!
George, George, George of the jungle! WATCH OUT FOR THAT TREE!!!
Can't believe that John would get shiny so often but the one time they mattered he lost to Michael 😂
31:20 Xurkitree was my first ever shiny so I’m really happy John and Mikey caught it :D
28:31 both urshifu and Mikey celebrated the same way

That's basically the admins in Pokémon Xenoverse.
So far, these rounds have been amazing. Not just the content, but how close the points have been
I just love how Micheal uses the usual gallade strategy while John has shiny Feesh🐠
3:28 Mikey just laughed his ass off, he must have not laughed like that since his wedding day
Yes. I finally get to see a vid as soon as it drops. I hope everyone seeing this is blessed and has a great day.
Thanks
Those last few minutes had me holding my breath!
Gotta love that it was so close, and that what gave John the lead earlier was his undoing in the end.
Wow this was crazy for MandJTV. I'll be ok with either winning the john micheal cup. ❤

9:47 LET'S GOOOOO BABY! FLAPPLE NEVER LOOSES!!!!!

33:51 complete form has 708 (which I didn't know)
So at first I was thinking of a possible tie again but than I was like oooh wait it's 50%
If I'm not mistaken, the music at 2:11 is the Jortstorm instrumental

Stakataka: Why yes, in this times I want some sandwiches
"I can't go to Paldea!!"
I like it when Mikey wins, especially after his situation with the Gen 3 Randomizer nuzlocke he's doing with John. He needed the good luck lol.
I'm glad I get to watch a video while i feel really sick ^^ a nice thing to bring up my spirits.
Glad to see Mikey’s luck turning around after all these metronome battles
You are so talented, don't stop creating videos!
3:26-3:31 had me dying. John actually tricking Mikey for a second was hilarious. If John actually got Beartic he would have won.
I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE ALOLA VERSION!!!!!!!
Congrats on not forgetting any letters this time
Please someone tell me that the way Mikey says 'Solgaleo' at 24:44 is not correct😃 Please-
28:33 They are both so excited to see each other!

Actual points: Mikey wins 14-12
