[@ChrisPickaxe]

The stark contrast between becoming champion in Paldea and in BB Academy is incredible. In Paldea, our win is celebrated. Everybody is so proud of us. In the BB Academy, everyone's disappointed their reigning champion was so easily defeated by some nobody foreigner.

[@flallana18]

Well it didn’t help that nobody (including us) mentioned that we were also a champion trainer

[@JustAnAcorn]

​@@flallana18And that we literally saved Paldea to anyone other than Briar. There's also the difference of champion rank in Paldea versus just being the champion in the academy, meaning that people would be disappointed to lose their champion instead of being proud of our ability in Paldea.

[@tranatkikomi6873]

In Paldea, we become a Champion-rank, meaning one of the established top trainers of the region through the academy and authorised by the Paldean Pokémon League. So we’d have a high standing when winning the Academy Tournament (which was of course just thrown together by Nemona to have students and staff battle it out). BB League doesn’t mean being the same standing as a regional Champion. It’s basically the school’s battle club like an after school club. It doesn’t quite hold the same stakes. I wouldn’t be surprised if they had treated other kids the same way after they got knocked out of the Champion position almost right after claiming it. The school does seem more distant in how they treat each other as trainers outside of the club.

[@mizu7662]

In fairness, Paldea has a very non-standard usage of the term champion that allows for multiple people to hold the title at once. Unlike other regions there is no element of an old champion being dethroned and having their reign ended, just a new one being added to the roster of co-champions. Its purely a good thing to be celebrated. So in general its a major contrast to how any previous game handled the concept of champion. Also, Kieran was an asshole while serving as champion and the only thing he had going for him was 'might makes right' so once he lost most people weren't too broken up about his reign ending. Even the people who liked him didn't mind because they were hoping getting an ass whooping would knock some sense into him and make him cease with his edgelord routine that he picked up while being obsessed with beating the MC.

[@apersonowo307]

My god they ARE American.

[@superpippo93x]

Wait a minute... if both Geeta AND Rika were in Unova... Who was doing their share of administrative work back home in Paldea? I mean, if you gave Poppy paperwork, she would probably just draw on it... and Hassle would grade it for her... which only leave... Oh. Oh no. Poor Larry O_O

[@The_One_In_Black]

Nemona would leave every 5 minutes to battle Poppy and Hassle.

[@higonakamura1236]

Poor Larry never able to get a break😅

[@utlukka950]

Larry's the only one responsible and serious enough to handle the work, even if it means more work...

[@prowertastic8136]

Don’t worry he forgot how to fall asleep a long time ago

[@mcihay246]

​@@prowertastic8136 Actually, there's a lot of implication that he tends to sleep very occasionally... Just in weird times. One instance is how he has a Komala. I bring this up due to how Pokémon trainers tend to have Pokémon related to and reflect themselves. Larry tends to know quite a lot about the Pokémon also during his conversation with Poppy. Second is how he had actually fallen asleep standing up whilst Hassel was talking to him. Thirdly, a conversation between Geeta and Hassel regarding a bell reveals that Larry tends to be somewhat problematic when being called to come in during Champion testing. Implying that he'd be asleep whereas nobody else in the E4 would be.

[@peternguyen7530]

Michael has helped Kieran overcome his inferiority complex, and we'll see what's to come with the new Paradox Pokemon. Or maybe he'll see a new mythical Pokemon in Serebii and look forward to Pokemon Day next year.

[@KirbyStarAnimation]

And in the future there’s gonna be an event where you catch pecharunt but first have to save kitakami

[@mewfangirl1052]

I have to say, during that final scenario, I just felt *so bad* for poor Terapagos! Like, he just wanted to be a happy little turtle friend, and then Keiran just had to go and chuck a Master Ball at it from behind, and then force its powers to go haywire and out of control. I just.... Poor little turtle friend.... ;^;

[@builderforce6096]

Tip: if you fly up onto the big tera crystal on top of the terrarium you will find some pretty pog items

[@pikachuyip1478]

Oh there’s a cool Treasure after completing the DLC story. You need to get the Flying Upgrade/ Meal for the Ride Mon, to fight a Stellar Garchomp to unlock the Crystal Gate.

[@bibigamer502]

Where is the Stellar Garchomp

[@eamonlilly]

I haven't been able to to much after a soccer injury that caused me to break and sprain my ankle. Your videos have helped me through that. Thanks Mikey!

[@Clevernamegoeshere]

now that you’ve beaten the dlc’s story, you should go to the crystal pool with terapagos in your party

[@evalv2284]

These daily longform episodes on the MandJTV extra channel of just raw playthrough are my favourite

[@Floki_lucifer]

Fun fact: they actually fixed geeta, her Ace and last Pokemon that she uses is actually king Gambit now, she has a chestnaut, and not to mention that her previous Ace is now the Pokemon that she leads with. So thankfully and hopefully, she's not the weakest champion in Pokemon history now 😅

[@thehellfirewolf13]

Honestly, she never was. That is and has been Lance. Especially in Gen 4. My No Guard Machamp with Rockslide swept his team. And this was before i would do ANY EV training. If you're playing scarlet and don't pick Fuecoco, Geeta can be a nightmare, as shown when Mikey and John did that race to beat the champ awhile ago. Is the Post Indigo Disk team better, and better laid out? Yes, but her team comp was never BAD. It was just suboptimal.

[@francescabrogna6103]

Tip: there’s a secret event that happens when you go to the crystal lake with Terapagos in your party(and it’s very important)

[@bfeldz1023]

I love that Terpagaos in it's stellar for is just turtles all the way down (and also the world turtle).

[@ZRS76]

I knew something was off when they phrased it as all new champions receive a masterball. The phrasing made it seem plot reliant as opposed to just a reward. So I knew Kieran had one. I still loved the moment where he snatched from us as it was immediately drawn to us.

[@mastercraftme]

[@alexcunningham2037]

[@jademuseplays]

There’s a secret credit scene if you back to the lake in Kitakami with Terapagos in your party

[@allthingseverything9604]

Kieran is easy if you just use archaludon, my archaludon swept him because of his rain from politoad and archaludon’s signature move

[@Sup_D]

18:00 Well, the "Teal Mask" was an Item, so "Indigo Disk" also being one isn't that surprising

[@ZingierAlpaca96]

Fun fact: the debug team for this game consisted of only four people.

[@brandibastian4193]

Bro, if you don't already watch planes you should because he gave a little detail about something you have to do after you see the credits for this part of the game and I haven't done much exploring over there yet. Apparently when you're done with all the stuff in that area you see the credits again. Then your intro image looks different apparently. Then you go to this crystal pool with your new turtle guy and you see the professor who tells you about the paradox of your own story and s*** like that

[@PlasticBluVentRabbit]

[@knrgaming1700]

u can meet Professor Sada at crystal lake after u catch terapagos

[@frescopino7866]

Man... Terapagos could've been so much cooler. Even the music hints at a fight for the fate of the world, but design wise he's barely any bigger than the regular Terapagos, and while the small turtle on other pokemons' stellar tera is a cute nod it really clashes with a boss fight. They should've just made a version of Terapagos specifically for this fight, like Eternamax Eternatus. It's neat that its stellar form is usable by us players, like Ultra Necrozma, but unlike that pokemon this fight is just a damage sponge with basically no risk of whiting out the player. The whole DLC is balanced around a more difficult experience than the base game, and yet they put a three star raid right at the climax.

[@BJGvideos]

Why should it have to be huge to be a threat?

[@frescopino7866]

@@BJGvideos because it's built up to be, especially in the cutscenes leading up to the fight. Everything is crystallizing, blowing up, it destroys a the Master Ball it was caught in. It's all built up to be one of the strongest Pokémon in existence, and it's barely taller than the player.

[@BJGvideos]

@@frescopino7866 Yeah and it still is one of the strongest pokémon in existence. It's also a small turtle I could carry in a pillowcase (or in Liko's case, in a handbag). Those don't contradict.

[@codename618]

To explain Tera Shell, it's kind of like Multiscale in that it only works when Terapagos is at full HP. Instead of reducing damage however, it makes it so that all attacks are resisted (except Ghost which it's already immune to). As for Tera Starstorm, when the user is the Stellar type, it becomes super effective against Terastallized targets. When used by Terapagos in its final form, it becomes a spread move.

[@Oscarus4250]

You forgot to mention that when Terapagos has Stellar Terastalized, Tera Starstorm deals neutral damage to all non-Terastalized Pokemon; and yes, Terastalized Pokemon receive supereffective damage Stellar-type Tera Blast works actually the same, minus targeting both opponents in Doubles, and has its' base power increased to 100, but it lowers user's Attack and Special Attack by one stage. Which is a bit sad, but otherwise it would be broken as hell, ESPECIALLY since every Pokemon in Paldea Pokedex (barring Magikarp, Ditto and Terapagos) can learn it. But Contrary Pokemon certainly benefit from it.

[@MarcusMapua]

Transitioning from when we last fought Kieran many times up to now, practically no one of Kieran's past team members remained except Dipplin evolving into Hydrapple {except for the slight change in the Poli-family} - Makes me wonder that when Kieran is "back to normal," I am curious what his real regular main team will be if rematched?

Michael there is still two key things you have to do. One is get the ability to fly around from one of the steel elite four girl and fly up to the Tera ball in the terrarium to get some insane items. Two is take terapagos to the crystal pool in kitakami, I won’t spoil what happens there.

[@Pokemaniak180]

Plus, looking around the lobby of Niranja academy for certain NPCs

[@Lupinemancer87]

For those who don't know. Stellar type keeps your Pokemon's original typings, but also provides a boost to all it's moves, regardless of types, but only for one turn.

[@DarthZ01]

so its a one time stab boost? i guess its mostly useful cause it doesnt change your type, so if you want to, say, boost an electric move but not gain weakness to ground.

[@jamie36]

Its once PER type. So lets say your mon has 4 different types of moves, all the types get a boost once. Thats why stellar is best used on diverse movesets

[@rosenrot234]

And it does extra damage to tera pokemon. And that one time boost is just infinite when you're in a tera raid

[@jonathangoodwin5609]

So basically useless.

[@rosenrot234]

I'd imagine kinda useless unless you got a very niche idea. Like trying to abuse a Contrary ability Pokemon with it. Because if your pokemon is in its Tera Stellar form and you use Tera Blast, your attack and sp attack drop 1 level as a trade off for the "Its gonna be effective no matter what Tera Type your opponent has so long as they're terastalized to begin with" thing. So you can imagine this being fun for Contrary users. @@jonathangoodwin5609

oops said part 6 part 3 was recorded as two episodes but they were both too short so we had to combine them, but I didn't know until after recording this

Seeing Koraidon protect Kieran was amazing and epic

[@luctus_k]

Once you can take teropagos to the crystal pool, it won't disappoint

[@uppermoonthreeakaza3760]

Kieran saying "this is all I have left" is like harry saying "Im ruined, I have nothing left. Except spiderman"

[@Cool-Vest]

Kieran suffering from Peachboy is exactly like Peter' venom suit. He basically became less-funny Bully Maguire.

@@flallana18 Wait really? Not a thing? That is incredibly sad. I wondered if there was some hidden dialogue about it somewhere, but there probably isn't. Very sad.

God I love Kieran's development. He's one of my top 5 rivals for sure now.

[@Tony2-Dirty]

Mikey, don’t know if anyone’s told you yet, but be sure to go to the. Rust Al Lake in Kitakami with Terapagos. You encounter something special.

[@ProfMeerkat]

When Drayton called him Ex-Champion, I really though it would cut away and Kieran would have knocked him to the ground.

[@FaiRoxYourWorld1]

I love Drayton but that would’ve been really funny ngl

“Their dead now so it’s archaeologically”. Used that in court after I got caught grave robbing. It didn’t hold up. Now I’ve been sentenced to 30 years of community service for my local museum.

All jokes aside, this has to be the absolute dumbest sentence for this specific court case should it happen irl.

You get the paradox Terrakion, Cobalion, Entei, and Raikou from quests with Perrin

[@sanelu949]

Spoilers: Stellar Tera Type doesn't change typing at all, it grants a gem boost to a move of each type once per battle, and Tera Blast is super effective against all terastallised mons at the cost of -1 atk and sp. atk. Tera Shift is Multiscale. Oh yeah, Go Do Perrin's Quest for some goodies.

[@adityabirla59]

Drayton is my favourite character from this dlc, carmin and kieran are close 2nd and 3rd respectively, but man that kieran catching tarapagos instantly with the masterball has got to be one of the craziest moments in pokemon games, like bro that was so sudden and no one saw it coming too, like i know he was saying all the time that he'll catch tarapagos but i didn't expected him to do so in such a manner. Also gamefreak really needed to nerf keiran with that goofy ahh politoed and breaking his masterball.

[@Willowhusk]

The foreshadowing of everyone who becomes champion in BB league was great to then realize how he even has one

[@aureliamastergoomba1278]

Also, pay close attention to Kieran’s eyes before and during the Terapagos fight.

[@MrdDoge1]

drayton is the deffiniton of "pour salt on the wound to immediately escalate the pain"

[@RuinedFire]

Kieran is no joke. Even though yes, my team wasn't the best or competitively built, I got crushed the first 3 times I tried beating him. Good job to you for beating him first try lol Edit: I reworked my team a bit, swapping my Exeggutor for a Malamar with Superpower and (Contradict?) and my Alolan Golem was swapped for Iron Hands built for doubles better. I'm not going to re-switch afterwards. I gave my Archaludon a better ability(Stamina) and leveled up my team a lot. When I caught the tera type Duraludon, he was fighting type and I kept it like that so Body Press is extra nasty. I was able to sweep him easily on my fourth try, losing only Iron Hands due to him not really being great anyway and me forgetting to teach him Protect.

[@stallsunguy3064]

I lost 5 pokemon to him while fighting him with MY TRUE 6x100 TEAM

[@vanillathebard]

Never have I questioned more where a child in the pokemon universe got a masterball from as I have on this day

[@EndlessNight025]

They explained that anyone that beats the BB League gets one right as you’re handed one of your own, so that’s where Kiki got it from, more than likely.

[@cassandraspoelhof3752]

I felt so sorry for Kieran after I beat him. Poor kid. I’m glad he goes back to the way he was before but now he’s going to be more confident in himself. Now I’m not sure what I should do next.

Great vid MIKEY. I was think of an idea and wanted to share it for a possible video with John. Hide and seek synchro I think would be cool, one person chooses a location and has to try and blend in with other Pokemon and the seeker has 3 guesses to try and identify which Pokemon they are, a bit like prop hunt. I hope you’ll consider my idea ❤
