They do say if you sub to Pm7 the PM7 Guarantee will see you with shinies in no time... Weither or not it is actually a bluff and only serves to fuel PM7's luck, we'll never know
21:00 I was initially surprised you guys kept going after John got 14 points, but then I remembered you recorded the catching first and then the points.
What has always made me laugh is whenever John finds a shiny, Mikey is filled with unbridled rage, but whenever mikey finds a shiny, John congratulates him with the biggest smile on his face
What I've learned from this is that John either A) has taste more in line with the fandom in general or B) is more aware of and willing to pander to the fandom's taste. RIP Mikey.
Mikey repeatedly forgetting about the eeveelutions was making me laugh. Like my guy… Nearly a sure fire way to win. But yeah, he definitely was way more thinking of his preferences. Sycther vs snom was super obvious to me lol.
@@darkflameofphonix4709 Yeah but some letters have so few options that it would just be "did you happen to catch a final stage? no? too bad you lose automatically"
Next time instead of voting, just catch groups of 4 ABCD, EFGH, IJKL then do a double battle with your letter's Pokemon. Then even when you both get the same Pokemon there will still be a winner. After 6 battle rounds if it's a tie just roll 4 random letters for a tie breaker.
Treasure Planet clip at 2:42...respect! Absolute gem of a Disney movie and it's a shame it didn't do well in the box office. John absolutely slayed this. He unleashed his inner Cynthia, as shown with his Garchomp destroying Gyarados. He knew exactly what the people wanted when he caught that Clodsire for C...Clodsire is love, Clodsire is life, and Clodsire is a whole vibe. Rika having one on her team is based. And Dragonite is cool and all, but I love Dachsbun so much. I have a senior dachshund with several health problems named Bella (despite her health problems, she's a trooper and still going strong) so I love that it's based off her breed.
I had a dachshund/miniature-pinscher mix a long time ago named Abby, so when I caught a female Fidough and learned what it evolved into I nicknamed her Abby.
Love this series but I have another idea for a competition, do a random number generator for 1-400 and who ever gets the closer mon to that number based on their dex number gets a point
I think Mikey misunderstands how much people value a meme lol. Like Scyther vs Snom. Scyther is certainly a cooler Pokémon, but Snom is just a little guy. You gotta pick Snom.
@@itsturniptime3699 It’s a bit of both. Like Scyther vs Snom was most likely fans voting for silliness over coolness, so that’s just luck. But on others it seemed like Mikey just threw it on purpose, like picking Veluza who is just ugly.
@@ArcanaEric They gentleman's agreed to not go for Vaporeon, Mikey said he just completely forgot about Volcarona. Varoom, Veluza, Venonat, Venomoth, Vespiquen, Vigoroth, Vivillon and Voltorb were all losers.
"Anywhere, anytime, you and me can have the time of our lives" - Sun Tzu, The Art of War. As the Supreme Leader, John's power with catching Shinies is admirable. The thing about John's Shiny luck is the fact it isn't scripted. He doesn't just go to the spot before recording and says, "Here's a shiny", It just happens. Every. Single. Time. Without fail. It honestly is funny how little Mikey understands the current Pokémon fandom, I respect his convictions though. Anyone who thinks Dragonite is better than the adorable Dachsbun can go hang out with the weak "Dragon Master" Lance and his THREE Dragonite.
17:25 I'm honestly surprised Snom didn't have a much bigger lead here, I know that's a popular one, and the main thing scyther has going for it is that 4chan meme of it being your favorite pokémon.
Mikey, how did you not see Clodsire's landslide victory coming? Everybody loves Clodsire. Agreed on Veluza, though, how did that get so few votes? It's so cool!
I like how the Bisharp vs Breloom one wasn’t a sweep. You can tell people were really pitying Mikey on that. But just imagine if Mikey did end up catching it.
The bingo one I believe. Every other video had a clip of him finding and catching out. Even one of him being mean and sending it to Mikey before the contest even got started.
Hot take: You don't have to be a kid to enjoy these videos. Like I aged out of most Pokémon channels but I always come back here. I love the content here and with any of Mikey's friends.
Having rewatched this video a couple times, I had a thought. If there’s only one Pokémon with a certain letter, you guys should set a timer for like 5 minutes and hunt for the shiny version of it. First to find it wins the point and if neither find it, then the next letter is worth double points.
1:42. Very bold of him to assume there wouldn’t be fan fics anyways. I think he is just gonna ends up adding the Drowzee fics alongside the others. Lol!
17:57 am I the only one that thought Scizor looked like it was gold because of the lighting or no? Because it honestly looks gold at this part to me lol
The shiny luck for PM7's keeps get crazy to point that even won Alphabet Challenge.I remember voting on this pull and when I saw shiny Bisharp I was like:"Yeah I know who got this shiny".
I love how John is just catching shinies in every single video 😂 when is it gonna be Mikey’s turn? Edit: turns out he got a shiny Golduck, but John got three shinies lol Edit again: Well he got two shinies this vid compared to John’s 6.
When ever these videos come out, I am so exited because they are so entertaining even though it might seem like they aren’t. Probably because of the editing
Just wanted to say thank you both for your wonderful videos. Stumbled across you this month as we started playing violet and scarlet at our house and we have been incredibly entertained working through your backlog of videos and love them all. Grabbed a shirt and plushie to help support you. Hail yea!
Hey, John finding the Shiny Psyduck in the background while catching a Pokémon reminded me of when I found a shiny Psyduck while catching a shiny Fletchling. That as rather wild for me. Two shinies withing 2 seconds of each other. I enjoy these videos, they bring me joy. And Shiny luck. ^^
It remimded me of when I got my own background shiny, I was just going to kill the titan klawf with my over lvd quaxwell and then I enter battle with this dude looking like he’s part of team stars poison crew and then…wait…is that a yellow and white grasshopper in the background?(frantically starts to win the battle as fast as possible so it doesn’t despawn)
Video idea: 'Bloopers and best funny bits from John Michael cup for season 1 and 2' Not sure if this has been done already, but I'd love to see it, maybe have first half of the alphabet on one channel and the second half on the other channel??

i just realized i commented this on a this video instead of a different video.
I exist
Mandjtv please put my name in your video
Do you Believe life after love!
I love how Mikey brought the alliteration for L:
“I know Lucario is lovable but if it lost to Lechonk I would be livid!”
Lol glad you noticed it too!
Ngl people really like lechonk. They worship it just as much as *bidoof*
@@Darkwaltz4 Tbh i've never really felt that way towards them, i play along but the only mons i felt that way towards was snom and furret.
Literally any Pokémon would beat lechonk for me
@@Ditto.007 I love snom I have a net ball with one inside and it's great
PM7's luck with shiny Pokémon is so insane, that it doesn't even surprise me anymore.
agreed
So true
Honestly same.
At this point it's not if he finds a shiny but at what point of the video does he find how many shinys
Agreed
Watching John get more shinies in 2 minutes than I have found in my entire life hurts.
I'm sure you'll catch one one day
Ikr
They do say if you sub to Pm7 the PM7 Guarantee will see you with shinies in no time...
Weither or not it is actually a bluff and only serves to fuel PM7's luck, we'll never know
For real 😭
@@nighttimeserenity2447 you're so right
21:00 I was initially surprised you guys kept going after John got 14 points, but then I remembered you recorded the catching first and then the points.
Oh duh, I was just wondering the same lol
These two men celebrating over Michael finding a Shiny Golduck during this is really wholesome to me.
What has always made me laugh is whenever John finds a shiny, Mikey is filled with unbridled rage, but whenever mikey finds a shiny, John congratulates him with the biggest smile on his face
That’s because with John it’s a regular occurrence and with Mikey it’s a once in a blue moon event 😂
John is the smart, loveable, kind friend and mikey is the one who gets so confused about how unlucky he is. And is also the one with strange opinions
My mom is John she has large shiny luck
It’s Zinnia!!! 😮😃
@@TRexHunterGaming10 Hello!!!
What I've learned from this is that John either A) has taste more in line with the fandom in general or B) is more aware of and willing to pander to the fandom's taste. RIP Mikey.
Or he's just stupidly lucky.
Mikey repeatedly forgetting about the eeveelutions was making me laugh. Like my guy… Nearly a sure fire way to win. But yeah, he definitely was way more thinking of his preferences. Sycther vs snom was super obvious to me lol.
I was shocked Mikey was shocked about Clodsire? Has he not met the fandom?? We love the derp!
Maybe people just know the type if Pokémon John would pick and love messing with Mikey
@@Arrows_tip that is what i think, he activly picks pokemons that are memes on his channel, like Magicarp Belibolt and Wugtrio
I love how Mikey uses his community for theses challenges. Glad we can feel involved and be participating in the JMC.
I honestly preferred it when it was just "which one has the higher stats".
@@darkflameofphonix4709 Yeah but some letters have so few options that it would just be "did you happen to catch a final stage? no? too bad you lose automatically"
And then promptly yells at us for not voting for his Pokemon. 😆
Ya I thought it was cool to vote on this
@@montyeggman3075 kinda funny tbh
John being so kind to Michael when hed get a shiny is awesome
Next time instead of voting, just catch groups of 4 ABCD, EFGH, IJKL then do a double battle with your letter's Pokemon.
Then even when you both get the same Pokemon there will still be a winner. After 6 battle rounds if it's a tie just roll 4 random letters for a tie breaker.
That is such a good idea 👍
the problem with that idea is that PM7 is a former competitive battler and mikey struggles to win a nuzlocke
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate Mikey's phrase evolving from 'I am a pillar of salt' to 'I am a Garganacl right now'.
He's evolving!
they made him into a pokémon
People's opinions sucked in this
I love how John just needs to do a challenge with MandJTV to shiny hunt
If Mikey gets too ahead of John somehow, they should do that.
Like they did last year in Arkoos, first to find 5 shinies wins
In these videos I just want the cowboy screaming meme throughout the whole thing
Same

Why are you everywhere
I had a dachshund/miniature-pinscher mix a long time ago named Abby, so when I caught a female Fidough and learned what it evolved into I nicknamed her Abby.
The part where they just spontaneously went in vocalizing The Gambler and never mentioned it is awesome 18:31
Love this series but I have another idea for a competition, do a random number generator for 1-400 and who ever gets the closer mon to that number based on their dex number gets a point
That's a great idea
Creative indeed.
Responding to increase interaction so this has a greater chance of being noticed and becoming an actual JMC video.
Nice idea
Love this
Arcanine winning the first round by so much shows the incredible intelligence of the viewers
Hi pat
I prefer azumarill
Yeah, until Scyther lost to Snom.
No it doesn't; theres nothing in comments that screams intelligence
@@harryhealey4298 snom is better it's way cuter
I expected John to pick Drowzee for D round FOR SURE, genuinely surprised he didn’t. I’m sure it would have got more votes because well, *you know.*
It's not in the game? Is it there's too many Pokemon I don't remember lol
It’s in the game
@@Sun-god_luffy EA Sports? ... I'm sorry, I had to 😂

You mean a shiny Drowzee
Can we just appreciate the content these 2 put out! Easily my 2 favourite PokeTubers! Thank you Mikey and John - And Grunty Boi!
23:04
"Its Number 5,number 5 killed my brother"
"Oh my god i forgot about that part"
While doing the form I thought to myself, "imagine that Mikey caught the shiny Bisharp." I wonder what I was thinking
You fool
Quite bold of you to assume such lol
Love how Mikey freaks out about the voting and somehow John just lucks into everyone voting for him.
Is it luck or him just catching Pokémon with cuter faces that everyone dotes on
I think Mikey misunderstands how much people value a meme lol. Like Scyther vs Snom. Scyther is certainly a cooler Pokémon, but Snom is just a little guy. You gotta pick Snom.
@@itsturniptime3699
It’s a bit of both. Like Scyther vs Snom was most likely fans voting for silliness over coolness, so that’s just luck. But on others it seemed like Mikey just threw it on purpose, like picking Veluza who is just ugly.
@@ArcanaEric They gentleman's agreed to not go for Vaporeon, Mikey said he just completely forgot about Volcarona. Varoom, Veluza, Venonat, Venomoth, Vespiquen, Vigoroth, Vivillon and Voltorb were all losers.

I really like shiny Pokemon
Whenever you find a shiny Michael is mad but whenever Michael finds one your so happy for him
Who doesn’t?
Theee
I’m glad no one is saying OMG WOW UA-camR WITG 7 LIKES HIT LIKE
OMG UA-camR WPTH 9 LIKES HIT LIKE
Dude. John's shiny luck is unreal. 2 in 1 round!? The Bisharp ON the B round!? This is insane.
Mikey's frustrated breakdown next to John doing a Miss America Thank you is killing me holy smokes
17:25 I'm honestly surprised Snom didn't have a much bigger lead here, I know that's a popular one, and the main thing scyther has going for it is that 4chan meme of it being your favorite pokémon.
John when micheal catches a shiny: Great for you man
Mikey when John catches one: I'm never recording with you anymore
John dominates when it comes to audience vote. Mikey knows pokemon but John goes for rule of cool, as does the audience.
More like rule of memes
@@michaelkeha Clodsire is the proof of that. Stats wise, its not the best, but, how could you not love that face?
@@mestre12 I mean... it was against cufant.
What? Who the hell even thinks Garchomp has a good shiny is stupid. It barely looks any different to its normal self.
It’s so fun to see the relationship and bicker between Mikey and John
They have a brotherly bond
John has found so many shiny Pokemon in these videos and I am worried about Michaels mental health at this point 😅
Mikey, how did you not see Clodsire's landslide victory coming? Everybody loves Clodsire. Agreed on Veluza, though, how did that get so few votes? It's so cool!
Anytime Mikey gets angry at John for finding an early shiny is hilarious.
I like how the Bisharp vs Breloom one wasn’t a sweep. You can tell people were really pitying Mikey on that. But just imagine if Mikey did end up catching it.
Would it even be the John-Michael Cup video without John getting a shiny ten seconds in?
Or even before the actual competition starts?
he has to get atleast 1 a video its the shirt
The bingo one I believe. Every other video had a clip of him finding and catching out. Even one of him being mean and sending it to Mikey before the contest even got started.
I am quite honestly shocked that John didn't catch Drowzee for the D round
Same
It’s funny re-watching this at 23:53 now knowing in 2025 we will have a Pokémon Z.
But its Z-A not Z
@@SutaFokusua kalos game who cares if they get the name wrong it’s a kalos game
Yeah that aged well...
🎵I never wanna hear you say I got a shiinay!
John will literally never stop finding shinies
Until hes looking for them in a video dedicated to find shinys. Then he could go hours without finding any.
3:26 Is Micky not aware of how much people love Clodsire??
Clodsire winning the C round was a given, no one can beat the happy boi
The clod
I love The Clod
9:13 idea:
"I played Pokémon Scarlet as the saltiest Rock Gym Leader of Paldea" :D
"Glimmerte" had me rolling on the floor 🤣
"Can you move it along? I'm all out of time cards." That actually just killed me.
Really surprised that John didn’t catch Drowzee for D. He definitely would’ve won that round if so lmao
Yeah that would have been chaos
My favorite part in this video is Mikey slowly, but risingly losing his mind from his subscribers constantly voting against him
Hot take: You don't have to be a kid to enjoy these videos. Like I aged out of most Pokémon channels but I always come back here. I love the content here and with any of Mikey's friends.
23:54 This aged well
9:53 lol! This is so freaking hilarious, he ranting with delibird cause it won!
Can we all just appreciate Mikey’s singing, like it is on point
We need to start taking bets on when in the video John actually finds the shiny
True
Fr
I love watching JM Cup, so ridiculous sometimes but always makes me smile
I... Don't know why he was so surprised clodsire won.... Clodsire is THE fan favorite pokemon of the game... EVERYONE pretty much loves clodsire
Pm7 threw some rounds to keep it interesting for sure, especially in the middle of the alphabet
9:06 I cried here. I love hawlucha with all my heart
another alphabet challenge! i've been waiting for this! i love the jmc

I love how Mikey! “ god darn it” when John gets a shiny but when Mikey gets one John cheers him on it’s hilarious
John has enough shiny luck to share with all his subscribers and still find at least one shiny every episode
Thanks to anyone who likes my comment 😃👍

John is just insane with the Shinies.
I voted in that poll, and I indeed assumed that John caught another shiny lol.
Congratulations on Trending!🎉 Can’t wait for more awesome episodes of the John Micheal Cup!
Bro in the beginning John was DOMINATED in the first like 6 letters LOL😂😂
Soon, i will starting to take bets on how many shinies John gets on the video

We need to start doing polls in the beginning of videos to guess either how long until John gets a shiny/how many he gets
“You ever feel bad when you’re checking to see if something is shiny and instead you kinda just slaughter a family?”
Had me crying
Very happy with the Treasure Planet reference
I feel like at this point a shiny each episode is given.
