I love these guys. Their friendship is so nice to watch - I love how John is talking about making a mistake, and Mikey's like: "Wait, are you talking about Pokemon, or do we have to stop recording and chat?" Like, that's so nice to see bros being supportive. ...But yeah, John, wtf were you thinking letting Groudon get away like that?
Many legendary have the same base stats and he thought he could find something with a little more. (And he was right cause he got it and lost the round)
What do you mean Smoochum is the strongest? Smoochum's BST is only 305 whereas Magby is 365. Munchlax still beats them with 390. Smoochum isn't even third strongest. It's still beaten out by Mime Jr (310), Elekid (360), and Mantyke (345).
@DukeDarkshadow Interesting, I just mentioned Smoochum based off a playthrough challenge only using baby pokemon & how Smoochum defeated a large chunk of enemies.
Mikey’s discussion of how being mildly ill stops him from overthinking reminds me of when I took my ACTs for college. I’d been struggling for months to raise my score, went in with a bad head cold, came out with a 32 of 36, which I needed to get a scholarship. It really does simplify things if you have anxiety.
I find it very funny that they had to implement a rule that the trade only goes through if the pokémon being traded can be scored because of what purplecliff did the last time they did this challenge
@JasperDStar on the last round of the video after everyone was tied john had the trade, mikey caught a semi weak pokemon(i don't remember witch one) john(aja pm7) caught a rikou and then jack(aka purplecliff) hacked in a level one chingling for some reason. John then for some unknown reason decided to trade away his rikou with Jack despite not knowing what he had. Jack said he got a level one chingling and both Mikey and John called him out that pokemon don't naturally spawn at level one so he admits to hacking it in. An argument erupts over who should win. Mikey's argument is that John shouldn't win after intentionally trading away a rikou and because Jack cheated he can't win John's argument is that because Jack's pokemon did not count the trade did not go through and rikou is stronger than Mikey's pokemon so he wins Jack's argument is that he now has the rikou and John has the cheated chingling so he should win They then asked the comments to decide who actually won.
21:53 SAAAAAME, i absolutely hate being sticky, worst feeling ever right after having an itch right by your eye but you work in fast food so you can’t scratch it
I just started watching, and was anyone else triggered John didn't catch that Tornadus in the first round?! When I saw that, I said if you lose this round John, it's your fault, and he did!
Omg can I be the professional therapist? Lol I’m close to getting my license as a counselor. Love that Mikey was willing to stop the recording for John if needed.
18:49 Fun Fact - Prior to Gen 6 Aerodactyle was the only Fossil Pokémon who had a BST Higher than 500, the rest of the fully evolved fossils all had a BST of 495 Ps I forgot that Archeops does have a higher BST because of defeatist
@@linhardtvonhevring7262 I don't know for sure for the first two so I'll believe you, but bringing the galar fossils, arourus, and tyrantrum don't change the argument. They're all after gen 6, and op is talking about before it
When I watch these videos, I forget that there is background music sometimes. But every once in a while, they stop talking and I hear the Moo Moo Meadow theme playing.
These randomizer competitions are a blast to watch. Add one of my favorite regions to that and the result is a masterpiece. This world tour is so great idea for the third season. Also, I have to appreciate that PM7 used Magcargo on the video. It just does not get the love it deserves.
"But you would know that I would expect that, so I clearly cannot choose the Pokemon in front of you! BUT! I also know that you are mortal, and would want to put the low power level as far from you as possible, so I CLEARLY cannot choose the Pokemon in front of me!"
Can't wait to see the next video but I also wanna see the next team sky video, like maybe Night Sky Mikey gets hold of idk celebi and travels back to the present to hunt Mikey down or something
I love watching these guys. Their friendship is nice to watch and it just brightens my day also it makes me miss my friends since we graduated from high school.
And with an astounding come from behind, John Michael is once again neck n neck with the John Michael! This is a race for the ages folks! Who will come out on top!?
I had two ideas for challenges, find your Pokemon only knowing its name in a different language. Alphabet A to Z, highest BST wins, but the game is in a different language. For the second one I think sword/shield would be the best game, because you can still get wild battles from the grass, being forced to catch like a squirtle for your C Pokemon because it’s called Carapuce in French
Would love to see a version of this game where instead of going for BST you spin a wheel before each round to pick one of the six stats and go for highest of whatever you get
I think it’s very sweet Mikey was willing to stop the recording to have a conversation if John really needed it, that’s a great friend right there :)

They’re true friends!
4:40 if anyone was wondering, Magby is actually second strongest baby, only beaten by Munchlax, so John would most likely still win anyway
Interesting, I thought Smoochum was the strongest based off of how well it did in a baby only challenge.
@ oh yeah my bad, Smoochum is stronger than both Magby and Munchlax
@calamariknight481 It's alright, hard to remember everything.

The bird controlling Mikey is actually John Michael Wingull
Lmfao it comes full circle!
It isn't a JMC episode without John catching a Shiny.
It's standard procedure.
I’m more surprised it took 16 minutes into the video for him to catch one.
I saw this comment the moment the shiny popped up in the video 😂😂
True true 🙂↕️😆
25:00 “I got nothing the entire round” John says after he runs away from a Volcarona and a Terrakion

22:20 Virizion truly does follow john everywhere
I find it very funny that they had to implement a rule that the trade only goes through if the pokémon being traded can be scored because of what purplecliff did the last time they did this challenge
I mean, it's just generally a good idea. If you can trade unscorable Pokemon, then rounds 2 to 7 are just six instant wins in a row.
What did Jack do? I don't think I watched that video
@JasperDStar on the last round of the video after everyone was tied john had the trade, mikey caught a semi weak pokemon(i don't remember witch one) john(aja pm7) caught a rikou and then jack(aka purplecliff) hacked in a level one chingling for some reason.

Mikey's argument is that John shouldn't win after intentionally trading away a rikou and because Jack cheated he can't win
John's argument is that because Jack's pokemon did not count the trade did not go through and rikou is stronger than Mikey's pokemon so he wins
Jack's argument is that he now has the rikou and John has the cheated chingling so he should win
They then asked the comments to decide who actually won.
@@lolgamming3104 oh, now that you talk about it, I do remember this
Wait what video was this one?
24:00 John, did you not see the Terrakion. Because there was a Terrakion in that hoard on the far left
Terrakion would still have lost
@@kirby4939still would have been closer than ledian
@joshfarmer8408 Terrakion is 580, Mega Scizor is 600. Just in case for people are going to yell
Fr he was like I found nothing and I was like tf is he saying lol
@zekromtrainer1222 as someone else said, it still would've been a better pick than what he ended up with
A Lion King 2 reference in the first 45 seconds?!? S Tier video!
We had an *incident* on my campus last week. Always take the time to have those conversations.
John getting hyped over a Ledian is the exact hype I got when I was able to add Raticate in my original Heartgold team and beat Lance.
It makes me wonder why he didn't go for the Stoutland or the Espeon

Surfing tidal waves
So how fast does John get a shiny this time? 😂
Edit: 15:42 there it is 😂
Mikey is an amazing friend for offering to stop the recording to chat. Let’s give these guys a round of applause 👏

John’s “You what now?”, in response to Mikey snagging his starter killed me. Perfect timing.

16:09 - The one time catching a shiny screwed John over.

It was a megas only round, only megas or ones that become megas. He found nothing good so he threw the round for a laugh

Thank yall for posting this week.. I needed a nice distraction..
And so nice to see empathy between friends… thank yall
7:22 Alugia returns yet again
5:58 it's the funny Lunar Dance bird :)
Mikey’s favorite legendary! You can tell by the fact he had two of them

The vibe between these two is priceless! I've enjoyed all their content, just good times!!

"They might taaaa Ahe har har har" Hahahahahahah"
I loved that, it made me laugh so hard
The suprise Lion King 2 song edit was very appreciated. I prefer 2 specifically for the music, so thank you.
Im on team John Micheal! Who else is with me?
Personally, I am rooting for John Michael.
Bro, John Michael is gonna steamroll John Michael
I love how both John Michaels are so friendly but competitive
Anyone who makes a Lion King 2 “Not One Of Us” reference gets a like from me. That song is a certified banger!

That entire movie is honestly such a vibe
LESS GOOOOO NEW JOHN MICHAEL CUP EPISODE
YASS
8:22 i didn't knew Mikey can draw, what a masterpiece 👌
Adventure tiiiiime
i love how when john caught the ledian he said he had found nothing when he found a terrakion that same round
"But you would know that I would expect that, so I clearly cannot choose the Pokemon in front of you! BUT! I also know that you are mortal, and would want to put the low power level as far from you as possible, so I CLEARLY cannot choose the Pokemon in front of me!"
Mikey's jmc video : strategy mind-games super serious stats related time limit
John's jmc videos : SHINY SHINY SHINY
Flawless execution on John's side for round 3!
Mikey willingly to stop his recording to talk to John if he had a problem. That he wanted to talk about. True friendship right there!
I always love whenever Mikey uploads a new video. He is probably my favorite Poketuber.
Same
Same
john bluffing and acting like he got something super good and then at the end of the round revealing he caught ledian is so funny
1:44 John Michael?! Is that you?!
Can't wait to see the next video but I also wanna see the next team sky video, like maybe Night Sky Mikey gets hold of idk celebi and travels back to the present to hunt Mikey down or something
So upto this episode John won all of his videos and Michael won his videos
Shockingly, one of if not the only time Mikey has one by a decent margin. All the others are down to the wire wins or john wins by a good margin
Man, the moo moo farm music at the beginning caused nostalgia
The fact jhon just has a white board to draw right next to him the whole time 😂
I just realised I am a pokemon nerd... I knew some of the bst from the top of my head D:
24:58 John: "Oh I found nothing the entire round"
Me: "Did I not see a TERRAKION on your screen about a minute before that statement?"
4:24 That Magby drawing is 🔥, Go PM7!
Can you guys produce an official JMC bingo sheet for people to play bingo with while watching? John having a shiny needs to be on there.
10:06 as a French teacher, I'm gonna um actually you - je ne parle PAS français. You forgot the "pas," which is the real element of negation
Good to see John and Michael are still cooking up some new competition. Keep up the good work
2:28 why does it look like Mikey’s shoulder crosses to John’s cam
Fr
Yeah, I noticed that, too. I guess it comes from wearing a black shirt combined with that corner of the camera being the same color.
John could have gotten the legendary known as Terrakion.
I'm not going lie, by I nearly spit my drink at 6:36
It’s amazing to see an idea from the purplecliffe, MandJTV, and PM7 era
You guys think Mikey and Grunty Boi hang out, or are they just like… work friends?
Maybe
they’re the same person and don’t do anything with each other
@ShadowStryker the second to last episode of the JMC S2 would beg to differ.
This one was really fun. I love this new season
Under an hour gang

Under 10 minutes gang!

Thank you guys for Another amazing video.Been watching this channel for a long time.
5:10 John ran from suicune 😂
He wanted lugia
He wanted Lugia for 1, 2 he was worried Mikey would trade
Suicuine is only 570, most are 680. even pseudos are better

Love the themed rounds and extra rules. Makes it much more entertaining than just catching Legendaries
12:24 scariest, jumpscare ever😨
18:20 it took me forever to notice Mikey was wearing a Kirby shirt. I also just so happen to be wearing the same shirt lol

24:04 The Pokémon Talk reference warms my heart. Mikey may not be making it anymore, but it lives on in our hearts.
Who’s your favorite Pokémon? Mine are Deplox, Zoroark, Victini and Darkrai.
Mewtwo and Arceus
Umbreon,Zekrom,Zaroark and Lucario
I love Sceptile and Silvally, but almost any gen7 pokémon is awesome to me!
Furret, Serperior, All Eeveelutions
I like haunter, magneton, golisopod, and type null :)
Mickey keeps saying he's not bald and the hat is just branding BUT notice how he never just takes the hat off to prove it.
Okey mikey and john i have one question,did you played pokemon tcg pocket?
Yep
Crazy how Lugia in the metronome Nuzzlocke didn’t help Mikey
But Lugia everywhere else does
Considering John's crazy Shiny Luck, Mikey needs all the Ws he can get
16:25, Phineas and Ferb reference. Much appreciated
I had two ideas for challenges, find your Pokemon only knowing its name in a different language.
Alphabet A to Z, highest BST wins, but the game is in a different language.
For the second one I think sword/shield would be the best game, because you can still get wild battles from the grass, being forced to catch like a squirtle for your C Pokemon because it’s called Carapuce in French
Damn! The home court advantage for these challenges has been crazy!! They’ve both only won the challenges on their own channels
Would love to see a version of this game where instead of going for BST you spin a wheel before each round to pick one of the six stats and go for highest of whatever you get
It's becoming more and more evident that Mikey is a human shiny charm and John is exploiting that part of their friendship.
Yes, a new JMC episode. Loving this series. keep up the amazing work.❤
12:37 So that is why Mikey always says "Greetings boogie fans!" at the beginning of his videos.
I hope there is a John Michael cup season 4. I love how much @PM7 and @MandJTvPlays make me laugh. With their friendly trash talking.
Listen, I can’t say I expected this video to reference Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride, but I very much appreciate it
