Just a heads up. After completing the story, you can access Area zero at anytime by simply jumping directly into the crater. You don't have to go through the zero gate, although it is nice for some of the teleport points.

The way John got a crit capture on the shiny Sudowoodo was so clutch. Even if he had caught it, it would've shaken three times and he would've run out of time.

Michael’s full name is John Michael

[@CrimsonPriestessofMiracles]

Mikey actually made an error for John’s Pokémon at 13:01; he mistook Greavard as Houndstone.

[@ArcticsYT]

I love how Mikey saw the picture of Greavard and went “Houndstone” and John technically lost because he didn’t catch a Greavard in time 😂

[@MandJTVPlays]

The pictures were not involved in the random generation (I used a pick-name-from-list site). Houndstone was what came up and the Greavard pic is a small error in editing

I found a shiny swablu my first day and then a shiny crabrawler my second day. I'm starting to believe in the subscribe to PM7 motto. 😅 The only shiny I ever found before in any of the games from gen 1 to gen 8 was a shiny gigantimax milcery in a random den and I didn't realize it was shiny until I had almost completed the raid.

"There's one right outside my house!" "For a moment I thought you meant a Spiritomb."

Fun fact! You can tell if it’s a critical capture before it shakes by looking at the white air stream stream as you throw the ball! If it curves, it’s a critical capture. If it doesn’t, it’s not:)
