Alternate name for this video: “Unova wipes the floor with the Pokémon world’s gym leaders”
Unova gyms are great in their Jobs
The unova gyms were amazing with great typing and move sets. There really was a lot of effort put into them.
Another one : *Female gym leaders decimate every single other gym leader*
You'd think Cynthia was from Unova by that logic. Unless she actually is.
@@alexursu4403maybe she is and got to move to Sinnoh
“None of clays team is weak to ground”
Excadrill: *furiously inflates air balloon*
Perfection
I hope somebody makes fanart of this🤣
And it's his ace at that. Better blow faster.
Thanks

I like that Cilan doesn't have any grass poison types. It reflects that he is a chef and having poison in a restaurant would be bad
Does line up, pretty clever team design.
The poison should be optional. It adds a good kick into the meal
@@mecen8 It would have to be an edible grass poison type, of which the only two are oddish and maybe amongus. Amoongus would work well because it is from Unova, and also mushrooms are actual things people eat (unlike roses or venus flytraps). They would need to give it a dex entry about how it's edible though.
Fair enough. I was mainly joking saying that Cilan should poison his guests since dark humor is funny, but you’re right. Also Cilan definitely should’ve had Foongus (Amoongus would be very hard to battle very early on, so Foongus works better,) for all the reasons you said, plus Cilan’s other Pokémon is Lillipup. Which is dumb. I know Chili and Cress also have Lillipup, but that’s dumb as well. They can have, I don’t know, Basculin and Darumaka. Basculin because it’s actually found in Striaton City, and Darumaka because Darmanatan the only other fire type from unova Chili uses besides Heatmor, and that would not be fun early game.
Fairly certain he would serve alcohol
Michael: “Misty wins against other water gym leaders because she has electric moves.”
Nessa, Juan, and Wake’s ground types: “Are you sure about that?”
I saw quagsire and got so confused, cause. “Oh electric? Nah. I’m good. Got ground in me” -Quagsire
Misty's Lapras with Freeze Dry is 4x on all those water-ground, so she can wipe their asses easy
@@michaelvonreich74 Starmie can learn Grass Knot as well.
That's gonna lessen their weakness to water.
Well freeze dry
Michael: None of Clay’s team is weak to ground.
Excadrill: Why have you forsaken me?
Oops
I mean he's still strongest bc of Seismitoad and Mamoswine
@@MandJTV yeah i was just thinking this, i even went onto bulpapedia to check if he had a fancy ability that makes him immune
Excadrill is still a dangerous pokemon tho,,,
@@MandJTV of course only counting Giovanni's teams as gym leader or else it's not even a question he'll be the strongest
@@MandJTV well it vary convenient that Winona is the strongest fly gym leader well at least there not in team sky
2/3 of Giovanni's team is weak to ground...
*I used the ground to defeat the ground*
Hilarious, isn't it?
Hm, yes, the ground here is made out of ground.
He focus way too much on stab, ignoring that camerupt might be super effective stab against all fire types… but its also 4x weak to earthquake which is super common
Camerupt's just 2x weak to that. Ground isn't weak to itself, Giovanni's problems are his Ground/Rock and Poison/Ground Pokémon.
“Gr(ound)avity is a harness, I have harnessed the harness.”
Three things: 1) I love how Unova just creeps up and wins a lot of the slots. 2)I love that the Galar gym leaders who won are the two that basically just got the job. 3) I wonder how the Paldea gym leaders would affect this? probably wouldn't change anything on my initial glance but still interesting to include.
None of the Paldean gym leaders have full teams, so he’d probably disqualify them immediately.
There's always the Rematches.
The rematch teams are all teams of 5 Pokemon.😱@@Joseph-ru8de
The Paldean gym leaders also usually have aces not of their types (except Larry), but they Terrastallize into their signature types. So that would also raise an important question: Would they be allowed to do so?
Maybeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?????????????????????????????????@@JCDragon2819
Every time Mikey mentioned a Kalos gym leader, a little piece of me died because I knew they weren’t going to win. It was a real travesty.
Sadly yes their characters r great overall but their teams r lackluster they need to train hard and actually gather more pokemon on their teams
In Z version they have rematches with fully optimized teams and Mega Evolutions.
@@jeffreygao3956 lol if it ever existed
@@onepieceking1770 Just roll with it.
@@jeffreygao3956 I will cus pokemon Z should definitely be a thing
“Norman is clearly the strongest Normal type Leader.”
You’re right, I hate to admit that you’re right, but you’re right. Whitney is just… her Miltank is nothing compared to those Slakings.
Why? Dad won!
Let's go, dad!
I'M YOUR DAD
GO TO YOUR ROOM
YOU'VE BEEN SCREWING UP TOO MUCH IN CHURCH
I literally just wiped his entire gym with an underlevelled torkoal.
@@ryanrzjr lovely
Winona for flying type. After all, she is a member of TEAM SKY!
Agreed
We need more team sky members, Mandjtv might want to go to unova for a playthrough to try and recruit Skyla
I feel like if you get the ice beam tm Winona is less of a threat, but her skarmory can be difficult. For rematches dragonite does make her a clear victory.
well team sky is strong but team tundra would send them blasting off the face of the earth
Well... an honorary member. If she was a true member, Mikey would've even took over other regions now even if it's just 2 members and 12 pokemons
One little note: Melony’s team may have been 1 team member short, but has the type coverage to go up against the other Ice gym leaders and would’ve probably won, albeit Zen Mode Galarian Darmanitan with Flare Blitz as it has the speed and attack to hypothetically one shot most of everyone’s ice types, and her ace Lapras with Thunder to take out the remaining water-ice types
Also, Gigamax Forms could count as two pokemons since most teams from other regions dont use megas, Gigamax or Z Moves.
What would make a lot of the leaders actually okay to fight against a 6pkmn team even having only 5.
I love how the entire video is "Kalos is immediately disqualified and Unova wins"
"You're laughing. Hapu's a small girl and you're laughing."
I am too. And not only am I a midget, bit I'm a fat midget.
You're laughing you made a joke and you're laughing
But seriously she is creepy
She's short because she's closer to the ground.
@@nebulamageplays1541 no, shes short because of God had wanted her taller he would not have created *ME* !!!
Michael: The Best Gym Leader of Each Type
The Dark Type: Well this is going to be fun
Micheal is the best
And it was
I dont get it
@@ghostene282 somewhat correct
@@ghostene282 there are 2 duh
I harshly disagree with Melony being disqualified at the start because her frosmoth alone with ice scales can wall 90% of the others' pokemon while being able to set up with quiver dance, not to mention her Flare Blitzing Darmanitan that honestly could wipe out all the other teams alone. Her Lapras can G max additionally and put up Aurora Veil, it learns thunder as well. 2 of the others have abomasnow which, aside from setting hail, (which isn't helpful vs other ice leaders at all) are dead weight. Wether she'd fair up against Brycen is hard to guess.
By the way almost every pokemon can learn protect and therefore render slacking completely useless so if we count that Norman is actually the weakest.
But Can Every Normal Type Really Learn Protect?
@@Joseph-ru8deevery pokemon that learns tms, aside from tynamo and regigigas, can learn protect
I agree with you on choosing Elesa as she's the only one to use a Ground-Type, but I do have to point out that Electivire can learn Ice Punch, which is super effective but not STAB.
bro volkner would win any fucking day
"Ghosts and Dragons are weak against each other"
Giovanni:
That's because Giovanni's Pokémon has a secondary type being weak to ground and not ground being weak to its own type like ghost and dragon even without second typing.
@@yukiyumi2736 issa joke
Hmm yes ground here is made out of ground.
@@TheStarGardens you're very grounded.
@@dragames This statement is grounded in fact.
Alternate title: New York City wipes the floor with France.
I mean like… Fairies. New York doesn’t have dragon-slaying fairies.
NYC wipes the floor with France and Hawaii. FTFY
Wait Unova is based on NYC I wouldn’t have thought that
New York in general. I think Castelia was NYC specifically though.
@@ILikeKirbys castelia is lower manhatten, and unova is new york city and surrounding area
Can we do this for the Elite fours?
Glad to see Winona getting some credit. She was the only flying type wall in any games to my memory, and man was she a heavy wall to get around.
Giovanni: 2/3 of my team is weak to Ground

Sliphspecter did this actually. It's pretty hype!
YESSSS
Bede became Fairy is the new best type.
Or Jasmine because Steel is like the 2nd best.
9:14 if your assuming the move sets are random or aren’t based on official teams Claire has an advantage because she has a more balanced team because she found every viable dragon type in gen 2 then just added flying types which gives more stab coverage, and some of Draidans Pokémon like haxorus are completely destroyed by any decent special attacker with a super effective move which charizard fits
Agree
You WANT that salty cousin of the Bird Keeper to win?!
still dont think she'd win overall though
It would honestly be cool to have a game where they do something like this and put all the strongest leaders in a game, probably wouldn't bd good but the idea's interesting
The final count is:
Kanto: 3
Johto: 1
Hoenn: 4
Sinnoh: 2
Unova: 6
Kalos: 0
Alola: 0
Galar: 2
Can we appreciate how Unova's Gym Leaders are just very strong and balanced just like both BW games?
This makes me happy.
wellllllllllll it's based on pokemons only, taking movepools and talents in consideration would absolutely change it all.
It makes me happy that the two Galar Gym Leaders are young trainers with a bright future
The problem was that he took their PWT teams....which is one of the battle facilities of Unovoa, you know those were they play way more competetively?
Of course those would win, they are set for way harder content than the main game. Sure he did that with some of the other leaders as well but mostly unova.
Other than that, the unova leader are actually pretty strong the 4th and 6th gym gave me some trouble back then

He didn’t even account for Z version! That has Gym Leader rematches where they have full size teams, Mega Evolution, AND powerful teams. The Elite Four are similarly formidable.
@@jeffreygao3956 that doesn't make sense, z version is a rom hacks and if Mikey were to count rom hacks, he could have counted crystal clear, inclement emerald, fire red rocket edition, Pokémon pink, and so much more. Rom hacks are unfair because the community/creators of rom hacks take the mistakes of the original ones and removes them, exactly what happens in Pokémon Z.
@@skycrapty1882 Well, Gen VI was cut too short.

Kalos is becoming the black Wooloo of the Pokemon world, isn’t it? “Visit Kalos! We have a cool power plant! And the best hometown theme music!” “And how’s your Pokemon league?” “…Annoying.”
I feel like if it was a real battle senario korrina would fare better with her mega lucario
As a B/W & B2/W2 defender seeing so many Unovan gym leaders be the strongest makes me very happy :D
Gen 5 was my second region and it was based on my aunt's old home town before she moved to florida
So it holds a special place in my soul
I get why you settled the Dragon team by BST but Claire has a multiple pokemon with access to Ice moves which Drayden has 3 pokemon 4x weak to. That is a major factor.
that is true, but overall, i dont think clair as a character would do that until a rematch, she'd likely go in thinking her dragons can beat other dragons without the need of ice-moves, y'know? she's cocky

10:10 did Mikey forget that Electric resists itself?
Uhh.. Fan Rotom (Flying/Electric) probably the worst form to have if you're battling the same type. That's because it is a part flying type, making it neutral to electric damage
And also some sort of a troll, FLYING TYPE AND LEVITATE?!
Sableye is actually crazy good with Prankster. Give it full Def and HP investment. Bold. Leftovers. Will-O-Wisp + Calm Mind + Recover + Dark Pulse and it's REALLY hard to beat. Plus it can technically Mega.

One thing I like about Bede is the redemption story he gets. He starts off as this arrogant blowhard determined to accomplish his goals at all costs, but after being picked up as the Fairy type gym leader, he quickly becomes a joyful, confident master of the type. His arrogance dissolved once he settled into the role, and it really shows.
I really hope we get to see more battles with him in the future.
There is no redemption for that pompous scum bag. He is everything wrong with humanity and galar rolled into one. He would need to have cured cancer, solved world hunger and stoped global warming selflessly just to balance himself out!

"no other gym leader has an answer to winona's dragonite"
Skyla's Archeops with Stone Edge: Am I a joke to you?
While yes Archeops' ATT stat is nuts at 140, you have to consider the accuracy of the move, which is 80 by the way, and whether Archeops can punch through Dragonite's 95 base DEF. Mikey also said "strongest" team so Dragonite will definitely have Marvel Scales which there is no way Archeops can OHKO that. All Dragonite has to do is survive the first Stone Edge, which is all but guaranteed and has a good chance of missing, and then reduce Archeops to half health so that Defeatist can take effect if Dragonite doesn't OHKO it from the start as thunderbolt is a respectable 80 power and Dragonite has 100 base SPA.
@@ogre589 I did the calcs, and Archeops only needs to be adamant to guarantee the kill with stone edge if it hits, even trough marvel scale. And even if it's no adamant, it has a 62.5% chance to ohko. So assuming it has an attack raising nature, there's 80% of duels where Archeops wins.
@@lyncario5515 i misspoke. While both Dratini and Dragonair get Marvel Scale, Dragonite gets Multiscale. This reduces all dmg taken at full health by 50%, effectively making it impossible to OHKO Dragonite.
@@ogre589 Yes Dragonite does have Multiscale...except..no!?! No it doesn't. Mikey's using Winona's Emerald Rematch Team and her Dragonite has the ability Inner Focus on that team.
Wanna know why? I don't know about you but I think it's because DRAGONITE DIDN'T GET MULTISCALE UNTIL GEN 5!
You're wrong about Winona having a Dratini/Dragonair with Marvel Scale on top of Dragonite not having Multiscale. Wanna know why? Again, I don't know about you but I think it's because HIDDEN ABILITIES DIDN'T EXIST UNTIL GEN 5!
And no Winona never had another Dragonite other than the one she used on her Emerald Rematch Team. She didn't even have another Dratini, Dragonair, or Dragonite after Pokemon Emerald never mind one with their Hidden Abilities! You could be just saying that she can change her Dragonite to one with Multiscale while completely ignoring the fact that Multiscale never existed yet!
Well in that case I now magically replace Archeops Defeatist for Wonder Guard, change its type to Ghost/Dark, and give it Ice Punch in exchange for Earthquake all with my Action Replay all despite not everyone on this planet having the same exact copy of Pokemon! And while we're defying the laws of physics I'm going to say that this single battle is taking place in Pokemon Emerald where there are no Hidden Abilities despite Gen 5 Pokemon not existing and while I'm at it why don't I make this Dragonite- no! Her entire team six Level 1 Wishiwashi's with only Splash and the Ability Truant all despite Wishiwashi not being in Gen 3? Nice poorly aged video Mikey! As you can see now Skyla wins!
Jokes aside no this guy's right. A Stone Edge would OHKO Dragonnite even despite Stone Edge's 80% Accuracy. Even if it misses I'm no Competitive player at all but Archeops Acrobatics (If used instead of Stone Edge) might kill due to Archeops holding Flying Gem. Also, since when a Pokemon is holding a gem they use the gem first when using a move of the same type and use the move after so not only will Acrobatics get boosted by Flying Gem but also stack with the double power boost due to not holding an item after using the Flying Gem before using Acrobatics.
This boosts Acrobatics base power from 110 Base Power to 143 Base Power (Taking into account the Flying Gem 30% Power Increase) and I don't know when STAB is taken into account in an equation like this but if at the end STAB is taken into account that boosts this move from 143 Base Power to 214.5 Base Power. That's more power than a Hyper Beam or Giga Impact by the way. In comparison that's more power than a V-Create and a Self-Destruct and almost as powerful as the most powerful move in the game. That being Explosion.
Her Dragonite has coverage for it.
"I'm literally doing it right now, so clearly I can." lol
Best way to counter someone's ignorance
Liligant are beast after setting up that quiver dance+ petal dance combo, and Ferrothorn kinda immune towards poison so you can't make Erica the best poison gym leader, whimsicot are also knew fly type you knew and it's fast with decent spa.
Kalos Gym Leaders: We've come for the tournament.
Tournament manager: I do not recall hiring cheerleaders.
one note i would like to make about peony and mustard. they aren't just former gym leaders, they're both former champions, meaning they double don't count. also means that 4 galar champions (current and former) are present in the games, which is kinda neat imo
yeah I think that's just so cool, because it shows how 1 there's history and 2 all 4 of these gym leaders have been dethroned at one point (if you assume the player loses in his championship bouts)
@@anderra6044 Peony and Mustard gave up their positions willingly, they weren't dethroned
@@neonhumphreys4087 Mustard's rare league card confirms he was undefeated until his first partner Pokemon died. After that, he had a string of losses before retiring, traveled the world and eventually purchasing the Isle of Armor.

Me: Oh yeah it’s all coming together
What happened to Mikey's muscle
A.K.A. me skipping a few minutes every time. Sorry, Grunty Boi just isn't for me.
Bro, Nessa’s team is SCARY. If you fight her with 5 Pokémon in the Champion Tournament, you’re screwed. Her Dreadnaw is a force to be reckoned with and if your team is even the slightest bit underleveled or the same level as Nessa’s pokemon, you’re getting sweeped.
I remember playing gen 5 when i was a kid. Holy crap, let me tell ya those hames were not for the faint of heart. I found my old cartridge recently and restarted, and Clay kicked me half way to Tuesday even with a strategy and well balanced team.
If Unova’s gyms didn’t put fear in you, where’s your heart? I think clay scares everyone that isn’t ready with water and grass.
@@bradleyharrah2750 Haha yeah. Excadrill has a fantastic type combo. I finally managed to take it down by baiting an earthquake and koing with my swanna.
As being a Unova kid, this video does put a smile on my face
I understood that reference. As a fellow Unova kid this also puts a smile on my face.
As being a Hoenn kid, getting second place was really nice for me.
Nice im also a unova kid
I remember my first DS. My brother was 3 years older and as such got the Dsi while I got a new DS (we broke the first by ripping it in half.)
I got black while my brother got white, which meant we ended up trading legendaries because my brother loved fire types and I personally preferred Zekroms design.
My brother got pissed though because I chose Oshawott knowing my brother would go with Tempig. I knew some type matches due to playing a small bit of Heartgold and Platinum.
Also screw the Electric gym. Most gyms I could beat first try or second/third try (Normal Gym, I just caught a Sawk) but by God Emolga sucked. Im pretty sure I leveled my Oshawott to a Samurott on that gym trying to brute force my way through.
To this day, Gen 5 is still my favorite Gen, and notably Black/White 2 was my favorite pokemon experience. Currently playing pokemon Reborn (fan game.)
@@_comictale_3083 I grew up with Gen 3, which means Gen 1 and 3 doing so well made me quite happy!
I like how Mikey didn't even try to stop Grunty Boy from stealing his soap
It's for the greater good.
Not gonna lie, this would be a actually cool tournament arc in the poke on series. Plenty of returning characters who have a deep connection with ash. All they would need to do is just bump brock's onix into a steelix, which is shown that he already did in the anime Pokemon Journeys. Seriously the potential for a really good tournament season is there. I'd love to see ash's reactions to all his friends at thier very best.
Wrong, the sun and moon series did that first, along with the first reveal to his mega steelix and misty's mega gyarados
mikey ," im not counting movesets"
also mikey, "falkners pelican has ice beam so it can counter winona's dragonite."
I listened to all the names of the rock type gym leaders, and laughed when Olivia was not only the only girl, but also the only one that wasn’t a rock pun
Yeah hearing them all back to back just shows how dumb the rock gym leaders names usually are.
Also, Roxanne is a girl, too.
@@mr.sandman7339 Oops- forgot about her-
Geologist here! Olivia could be referencing Olivine. Olivine is a mineral found in the crust of the earth and is primary in the Earth's mantle... So technically... Still a rock pun.
@@imhalfnhalf so it's just a diamond in the rough then?
“Alakazam is the strongest of all of them, due to being … strong”
Yes
*F L U C K* yes
@@juliocesarsousahaubrich9079 REEEEEE E E E E EN ENE. E E E
I actually think Sabrina's alakazam is her fourth strongest member behind Mr rime her screen setter, wobbuffett is her strongest by far, and metagross is just a massive unit
The floor is made of floor
9:35 Salamence still beats both of those dragonite tho
bro that was the greatest sponsor short i’ve ever watched by a youtuber. in fact it’s the only one i’ve ever watched because i skip all of them. we’ll don’t mandjtv.
"None of Clay's team is weak to ground."
Look I know Excadrill is OP but that's a little excessive
I'm really curious to see which the strongest dark type gym leader is.
hahahhahahahaha
So am I
Lmfao
Obviously it is Michael he just became one recently
Marnie is so stronger than Pierce
Some people: skip the grunty boi part.
Legends: skip the videos and only watch the grunty boi part.
I have a meme vid idea for the sponsor segment (and I’ll delete this comment as soon as I make it or see it made).
Entei: “Ha-ha!”
Me, on Johto Route 36: “Ahh!” *sends out Suicune*
Entei: “Ahh!”
Me: “Entei, what?!”
Entei: “Ooh, are you perhaps on your way to buy Poké Balls from the nearest mart?”
Me: “I…! Absolutely am, actually, yeah.”
Entei: “Ta-ta!”
Raikou: “Ha-ha!”
Me, on Route 37: “Raikou, what?! Hey, you can’t just take all my Ultra Balls.”
Raikou: “I’m literally doing it right now, so clearly I can. Ta-ta!”
So the regions with the most so-called strongest gym leaders are:
Gen V: 6
Gen III: 4
Gen I: 3
Gen IV and VIII: 2
Gen 2: 1
RIP to gen VI and VII...
Unova Gang
Well gen 7 doesn’t have any gyms so there’s that and gen 6 is just so goddamn easy and it is even because of the exp share the played the game without using it and was still over leveled.
they both suck
Well at least 6 has the best anime.
I quite liked gen 7, gen 5 is my favorite tho
Piers: I could have gotten a participation trophy
Marnie: Hello Brother
The only way to really determine this hypothetical is to use the teams you picked and have some really good competitive players on smogon compete with each other with these teams (and their move pools).
Loved the video though!
Mikey: Not gonna judge by moves they can learn
Also Mikey: judges 90% or 80% based on moves
Oh my god he actually showed himself showering
He's done it before.
One time, he did one where Grunty Boi was showering, and Mikey does a really good acting job when he does the Grunty Boi bits.
@@yusheitslv100 what are you talking about grunty boy isnt michael? Smh stupid
Holy crap I got eighty two likes!!!!!
I like how grunty boi laughs even when he thinks he’s alone
'Clay has no pokemon weak to ground' Excadrill: Looks like I'm off, people.
"But that video bases their strength based on how they fare against the player"
Whitney is totally the strongest with that in mind. I don't even know how many times her miltank wiped me
The grunty boi scenes are even more hilarious this time!
Edit: Holy moly, these are the most likes i have gotten by a large margin
What do u mean grunty boi is hilarious in every scene he's in
@@lindafeltus8136 That's why I said his scenes are even more hilarious this time
I was smiling throughout the bit, it is now my favorite Grunty Boi appearance.
Fun fact, when I was younger, I never really realized that Gym Leaders specialized in a specific type and thought it was just random Pokemon.
... How?
Like 80% of them blather on about how strong their type is and how they'll show you how strong their type is and have like, a badge formed after their type and like half the town's population of every gym talks about how they specialize in that type.
Did you... just not read what they said?
@@youtube-kit9450 he was just a smol bean who could barely read :(
@Connor Stevens thats sad
gym leader: welcome to rock town, I'm rocky the rock guy and I like to use rock type pokemon. stop by my gym which is in the local quarry.
gym guide: Rocky's rock type pokemon are pretty tough, but I'll let you in on a little secret. rock type pokemon don't like water types or grass types.
this guy as a kid: I wonder what types of pokemon this gym leader might have.
to be fair, they used to just throw in random pokemon occasionally which can't have helped
@@wesleyewert1023 If your native language isn't English (or Japanse if you had those versions) you would really know what it was about.
I played Yellow as a kid, didn't understand English at the time and just clicked on the words that brought the bar down the most.
For a long time I thought Bite and Bide were the same kind of move.
I was 6.
Manjtv: None of his team is weak to ground
Excadrill: Am I a joke to you?
You should definitely do this type comparison again, but for this time rivals instead of gym leaders!
