First to Catch a Team then Beat the Champion Wins

Fun Fact: The reason why Ms. Tyme is a Rock specialist is because she used to be a Gym Leader. Her sister, Ryme, took her place when she became a full time teacher about a year and half before the game.

You'd think after doing this series for so long it would become stale but these boys are pretty creative in making sure that doesn't happen. Which is great for us cause it means MORE CONTENT.

Seeing John adamantly refusing to evolve Magikarp never ceases to bring a smile to my face,

I love how Mikey tries to catch all the powerful Pokémon & John just catches all his faves & their two dragon babysitters 😂

you two never disappoint 🤩 mikey’s excitement at the end was the best!!

Mikey playing under leveled for once is such a treat.

I love how Mikey was like: “I did it! I did it! I did it, John!!” 🤩 And John just said ”gg.” 😔

Can we just agree that Mikey getting a Torkol for Drought so that the booster energy doesn’t get cost up in case of need of a switch in, was a genuine genius move?

The cut with the Garchomp and Scizor made me actually cry laughing, thank you

When the Mabosstiff intimidated your Great Tusk, your Attack Stat was lowered, meaning Protosynthesis boosted the next highest stat: Defense Such a fun idea for a video btw

13:09 John Mikey:"She's got both kinds of Lycanroc" Dusk Form Lycanroc: "And I took that personally"

Mikey faced the more difficult champion and still came out on top, that show of skill deserves a hail yeah!

Interesting concept cause a full team is more practical in a battle but that takes up time, I like how they manage to get creative with the catching requirements. Stops this series from getting stale

If only Mikey had gone to school, he would've learned that Tyme was the former Rock Gym Leader before her sister Ryme took over, and Tyme became a teacher at the Academy

For those who don't know, you could also get Hassel or Clavell as the last opponent. Clavell's team is the same as the team he faces you with near the end of Starfall Street (just higher level), and Hassel's team adds a Dragonite. John's massive struggles with Geeta's Espathra reinforces why I think it's a better lead for that team than her Glimmora. A check to your stat boosting lead is way more valuable for NPC trainers than the entry hazard that any of our Pokémon without Levitate can now theoretically absorb. I once used a Venomoth with Quiver Dance and Baton Pass to sweep Cynthia with one severely underleveled Hydreigon in the Unova sequels so I've seen how much these stat boosts can trivialize the tougher in-game battles. If I tried pulling that with Geeta, then I'd certainly get my ass kicked by the Lady Gaga Ostrich.

Oh wow, I was so prepared for the both of them to go through the tournament at least once before either one could beat one of the two champions, but I was wrong! The utter excitement of both of them getting a chanpion and that it wasn't even the same one was amazing! I really love the John Michael Cup! The dynamic of the two of you together is absolutely fantastic!

Mikey:has multiple counters to skeledirge Also mikey:AHH not the skeledirge!

I'm binge watching all of these right now cause i just got the game for my birthday and didn't want spoilers till i finished it. Thanks for all this awesome content, these past few videos have been a blast!

Mikey: "This is a rock lady. I did not know this was her specialty." Not even 2 minutes ago: Game shows a close up of a rock earing.

Johns shirt is on brand but also very aesthetic
