John your thing of if you subscribe to PM7 you get more shinies worked cause I got a shiny Glimmet in Violet yesterday

[@humanbean8699]

2:25 Are we all just gonna ignore that shiny Eternal Floette?! That is GORGEOUS

[@ToadyPlayz]

Floette and Eternal Flower Floette are now in my top 3 favourite Shinies

[@BG12sofia]

Such a waste that Game Freak never did anything with Eternal Floette.

John’s whiteboard really was the MVP of this video

[@shinyman250]

Yes

[@mecen8]

“How to win: try 2 win!” Beautiful strategy

[@JUMPYCOOL]

Mikey ❤ Drowzee

[@joeyrogers3739]

Lol

[@EmmaFiltness]

Though that fish drawig looks like something else...

[@SolomonKoIk]

If Mikey switched to a timer ball when the Kyogre started to struggle, he probably could've won

[@BluejaySerenade]

I was just thinking that! I was like "when is he gonna start using timer balls??" And then he didn't.

[@NeonWafflez707]

Yeah I thought the same

[@xenowolf7285]

Pretty sure, by the point he would have thought about it, it had become a pride thing. He's defied the shiny gods already, why not humiliate the god of the sea by catching it in a puny dive ball? (But seriously, I completely forgot he could have done that OMG!)

[@LuckyBones77]

Went to the comments, looking for this exactly 😂 I’ve caught a lot of stubborn legendaries in timer balls in vanilla games, so I was SCREAMING

[@mythicaxis9757]

True

[@TlocRevelc]

The fact Mikey didn't even consider the timer ball on kyogre is surprising

[@GameAflameYT]

Oh yeah…

[@DharshM0]

He just really didn't want to fish again at the time. Don't understand why he felt like fishing later though lol

[@Alita_Kazami]

12:49 I don't know why, but seeing John dance with Darumaka like that makes me feel happy.

[@ChefMonke07]

I feel like Mikey's downfall is the fact that he refuses to give up

[@KnightRaymund]

lol, yeah he got it so fast once he went somewhere else

[@mysticfox9718]

He really wanted to catch that shiny primal Kyogre

[@Walshy8113]

I think his downfall was that he didn't use the timer ball on that Kyogre

[@ChefMonke07]

@@Walshy8113 Still would've been a risk, but at least it was a better gamble than Dive Ball.

[@azviking139]

And John’s is the fact that he only plays the game for half the time

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Your drawing of Mikey as a Butterfree is chef's kiss, and Mikey's Butterfree impression so spot on. Your whiteboard is truly the star of the show! But doing a little dance like Darumaka is honestly quite wholesome. Your Shiny luck is one thing, but finding Shiny MEGAS like nothing is another! Though...I just can't look at Mega Alakazam with a straight face. Their Mega form is so cursed. And the reason Shiny Kyogre didn't budge is because Mikey had the audacity to try to put the primal god of the sea in a DIVE BALL! Should've used a Timer Ball when it was struggling.

[@sebastianromero3393]

I have no idea why John wasted so much time doing the second gym but I’m not going to complain because it gave us an exciting ending.

[@Bluewolfer7]

He wasted time wantedly becose he wanted to make it more close and exiting

[@plushyvrrrrrr]

5:33 Mikey is becoming a butterfly man 🦋 😂

[@koolkittykat04]

I’m surprised Mikey didn’t switch to a Timer Ball on Primal Kyogre…

[@theoaremevano3227]

He just really hates fishing. XD

[@ThePlushParties2]

5:31 "I feel something awakening inside of me. FREEEEEEEE" Had me rolling on the floor laughing

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

Shiny Shinx is just a walking piece of cheese that's been carved into a creature 😂If I had a nickel, for every time Mikey caught a Floette, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. If I had a nickel, for every time John caught a Meditite, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Seriously though, that Shiny Floette Eternal Forme is absolutely gorgeous! Seeing Mikey try to catch that Primal Kyogre was...a struggle. We all felt it when it disappeared. But hey, I respect his determination to get it. Determination is something we all need. A dream doesn't become reality through magic. It takes sweat, determination and hard work. Keep believing and go far, comrades!

[@intangerbline3683]

I looked up Butterfree's and Drowzee's egg groups to see if there was any overlap, which there isn't, but Drowzee is in the human-like egg group which is even better. Also Purugly is my favorite pokemon, showed up while I was typing this.

[@manjusahoo4956]

Ahahahaha

[@Matt-oq1sr]

There were more than just one Pokemon in Rusturf Tunnel because only it has Whismur normally, the way the game works is that there is a set number of wild encounter slots, and Whismur just takes all of them in the tunnel

[@DukeDarkshadow]

To be fair, while amusing, John's time spent fooling around and doodling with the whiteboard essentially balanced out Mikey's time spent trying to catch Kyogre.

[@krazytimewithkaleb8804]

Mikey challenging John to a shiny challenge is so weird because of John's history of shinies in the John Micheal Cup season 2. Also my keyboard is confusing a bit because I taped unowns to my keyboard

[@jrlaps521]

To be fair, Mikey won the shiny “king of the hill” challenge

[@sarahdanvers1076]

I feel like another challenge on Scarlet/Violet would to be to catch the most difficult to tell shinies. Either from them being too tiny or not that much difference.

[@bubblesys]

Gengar, Scatterbug, Slowpoke, Fletchling, Flabebe, Sewaddle, Phanpy...

[@prettybadgamer3279]

​@@bubblesys Doesn't scatterbug become bright white when it is shiny, instead of it's regular grey color? From what I've seen, it's really easy to spot

[@bubblesys]

@@prettybadgamer3279 Yeah except it’s only found in the grass (where it’s barely visible) and it’s one of the tiniest models in the game, on par with Flabébé and Joltik.

​@@bubblesysScatterbug is easy to see in the grass (it's big ol' head is mostly above it), and while it is a tiny model, it's head is big and wide enough to make it easy enough to spot

If Mikey had just used the timer ball on the Kyogre he probably would have won this, but John was behind and has a whiteboard so this outcome was better anyway XD

[@unbrokenfistspkmn6840]

Also big note: I checked the catchrate many times during the Quetzal 100 days thing I'm doing, and it turns out Mew's catchrate is not impossible, it's 45 (5.9%) instead of the usual 3 (0.4%) some other legendaries have

[@sharalakid]

Such a cool idea! I love the JMC as much as Mikey loves drowsey...

[@gwalon2089]

Mikey should have just used a Timerball on the Kyogre.

If John actually takes the lead by the end of this that would be the greatest comeback since 28-3.

[@zorimanar2247]

What was 28-3?

[@jonathanslocum4967]

​@zorimanar2247 the biggest blown lead in super bowl history. It's a meme at this point

[@ribottostudio]

@@zorimanar2247 It was the final score of the 51st super bowl. The game was between the Falcons of Atlanta and the Patriots of New England. The Falcons had a lead of 28 points to the Patriots' 3. Atlanta scored three consecutive touchdowns to take a 21-3 halftime lead, which they increased to 28-3 midway through the third quarter. The Patriots scored 25 consecutive points to tie the game in the final seconds of regulation. In overtime, New England received the kickoff after winning the coin toss and scored a touchdown to claim the win. It was incredible.
