Ten minutes in each area of hisui to catch as many Pokémon as possible. Whoever catches the highest number of Pokemon per area wins. Alphas count for two points, and shinys count for three.
I love how PM7 went for shiny Espeon apparently not realizing it is one of the most controversial shiny eeveelutions. A lot of people dislike that alien green for Espeon.
To be fair, while it’s easily the most controversial shiny among eeveelutions, it is still an eeveelution, which in itself still makes it pretty popular and gives it a really good chance. Even if the voting is technically about the shiny forms, some people will always let their bias about a species decide their vote. (I know that I would be guilty of that too, since I absolutely hate druddigon’s design regardless of colors, so anything against it would have taken my vote)
If you do this type of round again, maybe add a third Pokémon as an option as a control? Then it could be really fun to see if the audience thinks either of your shinies are better than the chosen baseline
No they caught shinys and then made the poll and put in which one they caught and then later they looked who won each round so a third option would be useless
or if they ever do that again, they should win each round with the % of vote of each round and then add 1 or 2 points for total % of vote (of all rounds % together)
Imo gyarados's shiny is a bit overrated And people tend to pick pokemon that are in the earlier gens as they haev existed longer and bonded with the fans longer But i think Graplloct and other newer pokemon deserves some love too
Someone needs to tell Katie and Tyler that this is the episode where John forgot what sandghast was so it can start being memed on in videos with clips from this 😂
The fact that John said “on the board!” Like “all aboard!” After winning with chandelure makes me wonder if it was a subway boss reference, since that’s ingo’s main Pokémon lol Either way, I’m pleased
Honestly thought Mikey was going to sweep this at the beginning but oh how the tables have turned for John. But let’s be honest…. We’re cool with this dragging out as long a possible! Very entertaining.
That fact that PM7 got a shiny Kabuto that injured Mikey and a shiny Sigalyph that Mikey had to kill in Ultra Moon No Catching challenge was fun continuity Too bad no Shiny Drowzee to add to it
Jack and John need to get together, and find someone to make a giant drowzee plushie, and send it to Mikey. And Mikey needs to have it in his background
John really kept goin for green pokemon despite the fact that theyre hunting for popularity and green shinies are usually pretty hated. Godspeed, man. You are powerful.
If it were Kantonian Ponyta, it would be somewhat acceptable imo, but it was Galarian Ponyta. Pumpkaboo’s shiny is WAY better than Galarian Ponyta, plus much more fitting for October.
@@graveslayer9666 Honestly, my vote would've gone to Pumpkaboo. Shiny Galarian Ponyta feels very underwhelming compared to its standard look, whereas shiny Pumpkaboo is indeed incredible.
Idea: for season 2, you should do this challenge except all the Pokémon are normal. That way you have to guess what the shiny looks like, and then catch the Pokémon. To make it easier, you could get 2 Pokéballs to throw, and then decide between the two Pokémon and choose one for the poll. (And to make it harder, you can make it so that if you find any shiny Pokémon while searching, they have to be the Pokémon you go in with. And if you want to be EXTRA evil, you could make it so that the shiny Pokémon AREN’T shiny in the poll. Just a bit of revenge for John getting so many shinies.)
this is exactly what I needed after 14 hours of being outside for an inter-school competition, another good ol' fashioned banter reel between 2 poketubers love your content mikey ❤
Bro by any chance, you are from india? I know this is not that big a coincidence but even i was out for 14 hours for an inter school competition and just returned
@@shriyanssunderrajan591 hm, anyways it's cool that you were in the same boat as me it was so tiring, and I didn't even win a prize this video was exactly what I needed
Haven't watched the entire john-michael cup in order so I decided to do it. All those beeps and bloops that you edited into the video makes me think my discord is going off
I totally missed the poll! Bit of a shame but it’s alright, loved the video :) Honestly the fact that it’s 11-11 makes the final round even better, I can’t wait to see what kind of big competition the next one will be! And I’m glad you guys are making this season 1, you and John have my favorite Pokémon content especially when you’re together 👀
I took this poll and literally didn't realize that all of the pairings started with the same letter, lmao. One thing I would have liked in the poll was if there was a picture of the regular form next to the shiny to tell the difference. There were a lot of them I forgot what the original colors were to gage if I thought it looked better
This cannot be more poetic, and don't feel bad, win or lose. You two are great friends and put out fantastic content that keeps me hooked! Honestly, whoever wins I will be happy to watch this journey,
I wonder if Michael would ever consider make a video about his team for every region. Basically, if he was the protagonist what would his team be regardless of effectiveness throughout the journey. The idea is to make a team of Pokémon that he would use without prior knowledge of what is to come. An example would be my alolan team: Starter- Incineroar Alolan raichu Mudsdale Bewear Ribombee Alolan sandslash
I feel connected to John's last catch, as while I was looking for I think a Mudbray for my dex, I found a full odds shiny Galarian Zigzagoon. Also, is Mikey had lost to Sigilyph, he would've had two bad memories of it, first his Ultra Moon no catching challenge, and now this.
"It's a strong Pokémon it don't need no man." "But it has one!" You can't just say things like that while I'm drinking coffee I almost spat that out laughing lol

I love how PM7 went for shiny Espeon apparently not realizing it is one of the most controversial shiny eeveelutions. A lot of people dislike that alien green for Espeon.
my thoughts exactly
Tbf, the 3d shiny color is much better than the sickly green Espeon had as a sprite.
I think it fits very well! Really shows how weird its concept is
The switch to 3d models actually helped Espeon I think. It doesn't look nearly as gross nowadays.
To be fair, while it’s easily the most controversial shiny among eeveelutions, it is still an eeveelution, which in itself still makes it pretty popular and gives it a really good chance.

WE FOUND THE VIDEO WHERE JOHN FORGOT SANDYGAST
Yo bro I didn’t even realize that
Yeah
💀💀💀💀
What vid
@@Drakodogg this video
Mikey: "I am a pillar of salt, a pillar of salt"
Garganacl: "Father, is that you"
Lol right😂😂😂
Nacli and naclstack: grandpa?
"Yes, I came back with the milk."
"And Mother Drowsee"
Lol and is it just me or is klang is the best pokemon
If you do this type of round again, maybe add a third Pokémon as an option as a control? Then it could be really fun to see if the audience thinks either of your shinies are better than the chosen baseline
It should be really good Mon though that everyone like, like wooper, gyarwdos and bidoof
Maybe they randomly generated a Pokemon, and they have to work to surpass it regardless of how good or bad it is
Great idea
No they caught shinys and then made the poll and put in which one they caught and then later they looked who won each round so a third option would be useless

It made sense for Grapploct and Gyarados to be close to a tie, since they both have an equally awesome shiny.
Gyarados is the og tho
@@kitty.miracle is this a joke?
Imo gyarados's shiny is a bit overrated

Cuz the shiny odds are raised

Always fun to watch John and Michael compete
Technically they are both john and are both Micheal
😄
@@Spearless484true but nobody cares
The fact that John said “on the board!” Like “all aboard!” After winning with chandelure makes me wonder if it was a subway boss reference, since that’s ingo’s main Pokémon lol
Either way, I’m pleased
I absolutely love the single frame at 28:33 where PM7's character has a Xatu beak poking out of his face 🤣
Saaaame XD
Xatu made a beak on John 🤣🤣
I like how john caught 2 pokemon that caused mikey so much pain
Kabuto: sprained his wrist
sigilyph: found one in a no catching run
Honestly thought Mikey was going to sweep this at the beginning but oh how the tables have turned for John. But let’s be honest…. We’re cool with this dragging out as long a possible! Very entertaining.
exactly! hope John doesnt see this, but we're mostly mikey fans here and I want Mikey to win the season as a whole. Hopefully he wins next game...

It's the exact same letter, who cares if they didn't capitalise it? 🙄
I'm glad there's gonna be one more episode, but some of these results makes me mad. I can't believe Grapploct, Pumpkaboo, Qwilfish and Ribombee lost.
Agreed.
Unfortunately, people voted cuz they like the pokemon more, not the shiny
lets be honest, no one was gonna vote for qwilfish
Gyrados is the og shiny that is most people's 1st shiny ofcourse they're gonna vote for plus it's good too
Pumkkaboo no, but i agree on the other 3. Overal i'd say john deserved this one
That fact that PM7 got a shiny Kabuto that injured Mikey and a shiny Sigalyph that Mikey had to kill in Ultra Moon No Catching challenge was fun continuity
Too bad no Shiny Drowzee to add to it
Well, Drowzee's not in SwSh so it was never an option.
One of them did catch my first shiny ever (not counting pokemon go) Bewear
I love it when John starts to sing "Where is my Pokemon..."
Jack and John need to get together, and find someone to make a giant drowzee plushie, and send it to Mikey. And Mikey needs to have it in his background

@@sepposnake7073 _You take that filthsome lie back right damn now_
It makes me laugh every time when they cut to Mikey reading the results and he progressively gets more and more upset

"But it got one 😃"
John constantly bullying Mikey about drowzee is amazing
John really kept goin for green pokemon despite the fact that theyre hunting for popularity and green shinies are usually pretty hated.
Godspeed, man. You are powerful.
Popularity is an overhyped concept anyway. Sometimes people can just be wrong.
Shiny Seviper is good though, even though I'm sure it's not in 8th generation
23:28 John: Oh yeah!
23:29 Mikey: Starts laughing hysterically
I'm genuinely outraged that babysick ponyta got more votes than perfect Halloween child. Shiny Pumpkaboo is incredible!
If it were Kantonian Ponyta, it would be somewhat acceptable imo, but it was Galarian Ponyta. Pumpkaboo’s shiny is WAY better than Galarian Ponyta, plus much more fitting for October.
Alot of people are bronies, so…
I hate everything
@@graveslayer9666
Honestly, my vote would've gone to Pumpkaboo. Shiny Galarian Ponyta feels very underwhelming compared to its standard look, whereas shiny Pumpkaboo is indeed incredible.
Personally, I like shiny Galarian Ponyta, its coulours are beautiful.
@@jiyoonjun5783 Yeah I like both of em
Oh so thats what the poll was for. Lol I didn't even realize they were going alphabetically. Always a good day to see more videos with you guys.

Grunty Boi being unimpressed at Mikey's RAID champion simping killed me
Great. Stats.
@@Cormag541 Exactly
Trevenant is such a beautiful shiny, probably my favorite. It's already a cool Pokémon and looks just sick in white
I know nobody cares, but I recently caught my first shiny in Pokémon Scarlet! It’s a Shiny Palasand.
cool :P
I got a shiny lechonk early into the game (after the starter) and I accidentally traded it
Nobody cares
@@pokeguides4206 two people did so far, so it’s more correct to say “most people won’t care” instead of “nobody cares”
good shiny! i got a shiny oinkologne and a shiny sandshrew in the dlc!
It’s Litwick Community Day in Pokémon Go so maybe PM7 getting a Shiny Chandelure is a good omen for me.🤞🏻
Good luck dude🤞🏽
@@EliteFourChad Thanks.
It reminded me to play pokemon go today

Mikey: *makes intricate plans which to catch*
John: hey you look cool
John wins
Man, its so cool that we get a finale where you guys are tied! Its going to be so exciting.
i have a feeling they increased the shiny odds by a ton because theres no way they find shinies that easily
To be fair if they didn't they'd be at this forever.
Yeah, they definitely upped them
They said they did at the beginning
ITS ALBERT EINSTEIN
They would never do this full ods
The banter of drowse between Michael and John is like my friends once they see me talking to a girl, it’s so funny I love it 😂
20:30 I think we figured out what Mikey sees in Drowzee...
OMG WAIT

OMGGG
The QR code at 18:02 just leads to the channel . Well played

Ok
Fr tho, do they modify they games or is the shiny charm really that effective?
@@GeberthPaiva they have to had modified the game. I shiny hunt in SWSH and I have the charm and I absolutely do not find this many shinies 🤣

We have found the video where John forgot sandygast!!!
Now we can clown John on forgetting Sandygast instead of Mikey loving Drowzee!
Love the editing on this, really feels like 1 continuous timeline
Honestly, some of Mikey’s shinies really were better but John’s pokemon were just more popular in general.
This is the video where John doesn't remember what Sandyghast is.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
15:37 Mikey put on his Squirtle voice.
I wonder if Michael would ever consider make a video about his team for every region. Basically, if he was the protagonist what would his team be regardless of effectiveness throughout the journey. The idea is to make a team of Pokémon that he would use without prior knowledge of what is to come.
An example would be my alolan team:
Starter- Incineroar
Alolan raichu
Mudsdale
Bewear
Ribombee
Alolan sandslash
everyone would love this but he would over think and be like well i like this one but its base stat total is really bad and isn't that good
