John staring down multiple Spoink on the Slugma round only to immediately get Spoink and not know where it spawns is poetry.

[@Ninja_Geek]

He was so focused on looking for the Silver Slug that he ignored the Silver Swine.

[@BrownThunder45]

It’s such a John moment

[@surajhawk27]

Exactly 😂😂😂

[@DavidJames-mr6rd]

We now have the power to troll John with 3 specific pokemon that basically made him lose at the end. Spoink carbink and Timber

[@dalomatrix8420]

Underrated comment

[@masonwalling215]

That’s true in every episode

[@laugexd]

Actually for carbink, it rarely spawns in some caves, but it commonly spawns in an offshoot cave in the entrance hole of the summit cave

[@NeonWafflez707]

Was gonna say this. It’s like the only spawn there. Super easy to get if you know about that location.

[@Thejolt-yg4fm]

I just found it in my playthrough

[@LordBaldyBald]

I was about to say “nobody tell John about Carbink cave” 😂

[@twarnold14]

As someone who loves that sense of discovery, finding that cave was great! Felt like it was just tucked away enough that not every player would find it. I wonder now if John has seen it. (He might have and just not associated carbink with it)

[@kyleoostenbroek4628]

I remember finding the cave Mikey had trouble against the ogre clan member then I went down the cave to fall deeper then as I was falling I saw a sneaky cave entrance so I climbed back up and there it was a carbink cave then I fell deeper in the cave and landed on a feebas 😅

[@LookAHarryEagle]

I think they gotta wait until the Indigo Disk for season 3 of the JMC. It will be so cool to see what new opportunities there are for fun challenges in the DLC.

The pain of seeing John struggle to find a Spoink when there were a couple that spawned in the same area as the pile of Slugma in the previous round.

[@mizusenshi8172]

I know...when I saw Spoink pop up, I was like "Those are in the same area as the Slugma" cause I remember seeing quite a lot of them.

If Mikey gets to a million he needs to wear a maid dress while he does the miltank playthrough, a milkmaid you may say

[@TheSphero]

While that does get pun points, a counter idea; Whitney cosplay!

[@Ash-Greninja-ud7ib]

A word of advice for John and anyone else if they are going to shiny hunt annihilape in the future:The shiny has purple hair with blue arms and legs.Also, I recommend you bring a ghost type because wild Annihilape have final gambit.

[@heatherramirez6141]

Have you experienced the pain of losing one to Final Gambit?

[@Ash-Greninja-ud7ib]

​@heatherramirez6141 To be fair,It was my first time finding a shiny one while looking for a shiny dusclops, and It was on the first day of the dlc.I did redeem myself by finding another one afterwards and having my Ceruledge with me while I was trying to catch it.

[@bluedawgo]

Can relate. I lost both an Annihilape and Mankey in the dlc to final gambit because I never save before captures

[@steven1946]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="612">10:12</a> The fact that John found a family of Annihilape and Primeape under a tree in the rain is so funny 😂😂

[@TheUnwillingPest]

Even outside the JMC John finds a shiny before Mikey, this is the sacred timeline

[@SwayamNegi-Swami]

A cannon event you say?!?!?

[@Syndyre]

Mikey is just John's irl shiny charm at this point

[@toxityandsketch2131]

Honestly makes sense

[@starwarslover015]

An ideas for a video. It’s a stat alphabet challenge. But instead of BST you also generate a random stat, so you are looking for A with the highest speed stat and B might be Defense.

[@ConnerTravis1998]

There is a better place to get Carbink. You know the cave you can find at the top of Oni Mountain by the Crystal Pool, before you fully fallen down there, there’s actually another little cave there that you can get to as long you were gliding down and that little place is where a lot of Carbink will be spawning there

[@DigiRangerScott]

I’m a bit surprised people would think the next season of the John Michael Cup would start this quickly

[@Lucinderace]

i expected it to release after the indigo disk dlc

[@mewfangirl1052]

This is the first time that Mikey has won one of the "catch your pokemon before time runs out" competitions. I'm so proud of him. ^3^

[@gengarzilla1685]

It's almost a shame that this didn't count to a JMC scoreboard, lol.

[@Tokii_Bokii1]

Tell John there's a wild level 100 Magikarp. It has a 1 in 36 chance of showing up in Kitikami if you beat the base game.

[@kierangaming8549]

Here’s a challenge idea for you; Surprise Battle You surprise trade 6 Pokémon out, whatever you get back, is your team. If you get a repeat or a hacked Pokémon, you trade it back out until you get a new one. If it’s a special item evo, like Gligar for example, if you have the full evo Pokémon in your box, you may use it. Movesets, items, and abilities are your choice. If you get a trade evo, you have to deal with the furthest you can go without trading it. Unless the trade Evo pokemon got specifically traded to you and evolved. And no legendaries just to make it interesting. (Paradox forms are okay though)

[@WDalton1205]

I basically do the same thing, but for Academy Ace Tournaments. Surpisingly really fun since anything can happen😂

[@GreySealGuy3126]

Have you ever thought about the possibility where the shinies are trying to find Mikey but find John instead?(Except that Starly)

[@DarthZ01]

mikey just angered the shiny gods, so they cursed him. now all of his shiny luck gets sent to john whenever they do a challenge. the luck only comes back after john finds his first shiny of the video.

[@GreySealGuy3126]

That’s because the shinies are cursed to get lost when finding Mikey (Except that Starly)

[@mdj2888]

I would love to see New Pokémon Snap have a round in the JMC season 3. Each round, whoever has the best pic, gets the point.

[@dat_mankeyboi]

Same here

[@JollyRogerKing]

these outside of the JMC gives me hope that we'll get another Randomizer "Find this mon," game. I know they take forever but those are my fav to vibe to while playing pokemon

[@midnightflowerlivi]

I had 3 Kingambit spawn together in a cave just staring at me it was honestly scary.

[@xandervanbrunt4609]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="905">15:05</a> that Tynamo is BUILT DIFFERENT Level 69 for a 1st stage is just crazy 😅

You should do one where you start at the same place and both have to catch the same randomly generated Pokémon, and whoever gets it first gets the point

I was surprised John couldn't find Vullaby, cause that was one of the few Pokémon I did actually know the location of. But that's mostly cause I've spent a lot of time exploring Oni Mountain every time I've gone up there so far. Also when I saw Vullaby I remember thinking "Hmm makes sense this would be here" since it was in an area of the mountains where you can find a lot of Rare Bones, and it's a vulture baby. (Seriously though, you can find so many Rare Bones up there...nice way to make some cash). Also I just fought a Quagsire in a raid. I think it was Fairy type. Someone brought a Clodsire to the raid which I thought was hilariously appropriate 😅
