  • I have so much respect for Leavanny, a pokemon with high defense, high attack, and the ability to learn to STAB physical moves and swords dance. Absolute legend.
  • @Jorpda
    Mikey: “SKYla, she flies a plane” Also Mikey: suppresses shouting Team Sky at the top of his lungs to stay in character
  • We never noticed that bug catchers disappeared after gen 4, but it does make sense. The first four regions took place in Japan where bug catching is a popular hobby while the later regions are based on places where bug catching is much less common.
  • @BushSage
    It was so refreshing to see in Alola how the Team Boss was a bug specialist. It really shows his motivation as an underdog.
  • I love how, in the canon of Mikey's character, he doesn't know anything about Unova but EVERYTHING about Unova's bugs.
  • @Embtic
    I kinda love that he always uses an in-universe reason for his monotype runs instead of just saying “bug monotype challenge in Unova, let’s go”
  • The fact that Pokémon was created from a love of bug catching makes this video that much better. Sad it took me this long to see it, fantastic as always Mikey
  • These “trainer type” runs are by far my fav, such as the team sky trainer vids or the dark type gym leader vid. And I can’t deny, part of why I love them so much is because of how well they’ve been edited. All killer, no filler!
  • Bug Catchers got really buffed up Pokémon starting in Unova, it’s crazy how much the Bug type changed between Sinnoh and Unova
  • I never realized there weren't any Bug Catchers in Unova onwards. I guess after Bug Types actually got good they were too dangerous for some random kid with a net to take care of 😂
  • This generations rival has the most balls out of them all considering he PUNCHED A GRUNT IN THE FACE
  • I love Mikey's commitment to the characters he does for these specialty playthroughs. That he pretends that he doesn't know these games better than anything in the world each time is fun
  • @werisekk3
    This is basically "Mikey appreciates one of the least appreciated types but specifically Leavanny for 34 minutes" and I couldn't have been happier to witness it. I love the gen 5 bugs so damn much!
  • Should definitely do this challenge in Alola as well! Golisopod, Vikavolt, Ribombee, Araquanid (if you get the Totem maybe better than Golisopod) not to mention Buzzswole and Pheromosa. As well as many older gen bug types. I'd love to see this bug trainer go all the way!
  • For anyone who heard about the sponsor and got concerned: Mikey later brought it up in an ASPITPIAY episode (can't remember which one it was unfortunately), he didn't know much about NFTs when he accepted the sponsor.
  • @skyzeeee
    I feel incredibly bad for Mikey having to keep the sponsor and the links in the video now that he knows NFTs are bad 😭
  • This madman named a mon with rollout “Autobot”. I salute you!
  • @xMellomii
    Yeah I’ll say it. Michael is really trying to keep his “Hottest Poketuber” label with the beard and tank and it’s working
  • 21:45 "Why are you all redheads?" Dear God Mikey you can't just ask people why they're redheads 🤣🤣
  • I really do think it was weird to take Bug Catchers out of the G5 games... The best LOOKING and STRONGEST Bug-Types in the franchise were introduced in G5 and G7. Scolipede, Leavanny, Crustle, Larvesta, and Genesect, Escavalier, Accelgor, Galvantula, Durant Araquanid, Golisopod, Vikavolt, Ribombee, Buzzwole, Pheromosa
