You have until the end of the day Sunday Oct 9 (less than 48 hours from typing this comment) to grab the Team Sky merch and Hailstorm Mytey plush at ▶ mandjtvmerch.com/ ◀!! Get them while you can!
I used Swampert as my first starter and I love it to this day. also, I herd thet u liek mudkipz. Edit: I am working on becoming a youtuber if you were wondering.
Actually "Venustoise" from the Island of Giant Pokemon episode that was told from the Pokemon's point of view after they escaped from the S.S. Anne. The one with the talking Gastly was the episode where there was the legend of the woman who waited for her sailor husband to come back to her, but never came back. The "Venustoise" was still fake though.
"You guys really like me which I appreciate." Me, coming back weekly during his break to see if he updated yet because he's my favorite content creator: 🥰🥰🥰
So I had to pause the video to talk about something I enjoy greatly: Rom hacks. Not only does Game Freak need to hire on these talented people making some of these games, they need to find a way to allow them to exist without destroying their trade mark on the franchise because flat out, a lot of the rom hacks coming out nowadays are more imaginative and creative than what Game Freak has put out in YEARS. The more they work to stifle the rom hack community for pokemon, the more I'll cling to it over being a faithful Nintendo nerd.
Next thing we know a whole ‘nother batch of evil teams attempt to take over the subreddit and Mikey gets ambushed right in the middle of an aspitpiay episode
18:50 the gym leader already makes a joke about this when he terastallises sudowoodo...he calls it a troolo woodo or something I can't remember exactly
Rewatching this weeks after S/V dropped and... man.... that Team Star Comic at 11:29 (excluding the Bonus), was WAY more accurate to what the story ended up being than we all thought.
For the Pokemon DP restaurant couple, one person's father is the head chef and the other person's father is the owner (I think the boy's dad is head chef and the girl's dad is the owner, but it could be the other way around). Because of that, they both think of the restaurant as "my father's restaurant" even though they have different dads.
PokemonDB is legit so helpful. All the info you want is front and center and easy to find. Bulb has everything buried among stuff you don't usually need unless you're looking for trivia.
The story of Grunty Boi is just my favorite thing. From Mikey’s enemy to his rival to his friend, and now he has a forbidden inter-team romance. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
I don't know how I found Mikey's channel, but it happened around the announcement of Legends Arceus and I'd been away from Pokemon for a long, long time. I am glad that things happened the way they did
I mean water works too, it could work for either of them frankly... I suppose with all the parallels of time flowing like a river Dialga more so, but yeah weird that Palkia isn't psychic and Lugia isn't water. I highly doubt it but if Lugia ever got some form change, mega or something, I think it should get a water ability sort of like Dhelmise where it essentially gets a 3rd type, boosted damage from water, but without the weaknesses, because psychic is important to it, and if you remove the flying type then it's running into problems with ground, not weak to it like Mega Charizard X... but still it has wings HOW CAN IT BE HIT BY GROUND MOVES!
I am way happier about this new development in Grunty Boi's life than I thought I would be. As always I gotta give major props to Mikey for making the sponsored segments so worth watching.
while koraidon is really cool in a lot of aspects i just really enjoy the design of miraidon when he is a motorcycle and also the professor in my opinion is better so i will probably end up getting violet (also because i think the futuristic theme is awesome)
2:50 the cited websites are indeed the top domain now, but back around 2000’s there also used to be Psypokes and Marilland’s own website, as well as Serebii at its earlier days with active forums. But now the main three are highly active, with psypokes fully disbanded.
6:59 actually storm troopers have amazing aim in the scene where they miss that everyone uses for proof it has been confirmed that they were told to miss
When Mikey said "That explains the booty shorts." it was so out of left field I had to pause the video for a second to process it and then started laughing out loud! Best line that Mikey has ever come up with, hands down.
I was playing Emerald the other day and somehow missed 4 tackles in a row without my accuracy being lowered or my opponent's evasion being heightened. That is a 1 in 160,000 chance. I was fairly pissed after that and just shut the game off. I clearly was not meant to play that day lol
Scarlet and Violet seem to be the most meme-able generation on purpose. There's Wiglett, Lechonk, Smolive, Klawf, Firigeraf (or however you spell it's name), Wooper (it was already meme-able and they're bringing it back into the spotlight), the terrastalization headpieces, the professors, and to a lesser extent the starters, Team Star, Fidough, and Cetitan. It's a lot. The Pokémon team have to know what they're doing here.
I was grinding my Zubat in Pokémon Crystal from level 2 to level 12 today and using Supersonic very frequently, a pokémon hit itself in confusion twice in a row maybe three times over two hours.
The only real differences I've heard are in BDSP are the addition of the large rooms in the Grand Underground, and apparently Cynthia's team was actually made competitively perfect. Perfect IVs and everything all across the board, making her harder than she originally was.
Cherish or Premier Ball, especially Premier most astetically pleasing to me, moon ball and level ball too I like, be nice if apricorn pokeballs were more abundant in non gen 2 games. Starting gen 4 when it was invented I catch all my team in it unless it's a gift like a starter. Even legendaries, EVEN WANDERING ONES OR SHINIES I will not waste the master ball it's going in a premier... also because the RPG syndrome of not wanting to waste items because you might need it later... but then never use it lol.
I usually ignore the logic behind advertises and with Grunty Boy I just enjoy the expanding Mandy cinematic universe. Though being able to smell fine after a skunk attack is indeed quite the marketing opener to get one’s attention.
michael HAS to make more meme reviews with grunty boi and his room mate, also if he gives a real name for grunty boi, it should be mychan (how to say:My-Kin), kinda like the diglett wiglett thing, but now its michael groth mychan croff
I hope when Gen 9 comes out, Mikey might continue Pokémon Types Then vs Now cause its my favourite series of his and I often have it in the background when I work cause its so fascinating
22:02 I have a theory on how volo could actually come back: (just know I don't really know the lore and stuff. This is just a fun little theory and i didn't think about logic)after volo is defeated by the player, he goes and catchs many strong pokemon. Then goes to the cave and uses a ultra ball (or whatever ball he could use) to catch giratina. Then, he keeps him out of the ball and hides. When the player enters the cave and fights giratina. During this fight, volo comes and overwhelms the player with the pokemon he has. The player black/whites out and volo kills the player and then takes THEIR pokemon to become even more dangerous. Volo then takes the odd keystone and finds all the wisps and gain another spirit tomb. Then he consumes the spirits in the spirit tombs to survive(maybe the spirits being eaten could give him the energy to survive) as he goes and finds more and more pokemon he becomes an even more dangerous person. But one day when he's asleep (assuming he even sleeps at this point) arceus comes to steal some plates but during this, volo wakes up. Arceus knowing how big of a threat volo is, flees before volo could take out arceus. Technology advances, volo finds more and more ways to keep him self alive intell he is unstoppable. Now not only does he have giratina and a lot of powerful pokemon, but at this point he would have found the box that holds all the players pokemon. This means he now would have many other legendary pokemon. Making volo a very old, very very VERY dangerous man. And probably unstoppable.
Ground probably would've been a better option, because more dogs are weak to ground then water, Boltund, Lucario... although I suppose so are those legendaries being steel type lol, I guess dogs don't like dirt... which is ironic considering my puppy that's digging holes all over the yard.
So happy to see people wanting more Kalos, X and Y hold a special place in my heart 🥺🙏 I will also be naming my Wiglett, in tribute to Mikey, “loooong boooooi”
@18:44 I love that story because it reminds me of my college level (or AP) Biology course my senior year in high school. The teacher was telling us the scientific names of animals and my brain clicked due to a bunch of them being 'Pokemon related' like Ursidae = Teddiursa/Ursaring or Vulpes being a group of foxes and of course that name reminded me of Vulpix! The reason this story hits home was just a few days ago I was telling my middle school attending nephew that Dragon Ball Z back in the day taught me some pretty big words (via Vegeta's monologues) and even Pokemon helped me out with certain subjects. Anime and video games actually make learning fun!
I think it would be cool if they added voice actors for the new games, it would make the game better than reading all the boring dialogue. I seriously doubt Pokemon would do this but I think fans would love it.
For the record about the couple in the restaurant, in eastern culture (or maybe it's specific to Japan, I'm not sure) when people get married it's normal to call your spouse's parents mother and father. Obviously, this can be confusing when translated like this, but they are basically using mother and father just like how we use mother-in-law and father-in-law.
Ok, the "Team Star doesn't follow rules" thing as hilarious in hindsight with the Dark Team leader being a former Student Counsel President who had a very archaic rule system. And he went on to pen Teams Star's code of conduct, much to his disappointment.
Personally, I will only skip Grunty Boi segments if I’m rewatching a video, and even then it’s not all the time. They’re still the best ad reads on TRvid, and the mere fact that I’m willing to watch them even once is testament to that.
@R4nd0m Guy Fair criticisms. I personally feel Grunty Boi is one of the better ad segment things on TRvid, or at least one of the least annoying ones, if only because you never know what kind of crap will be leading into it and out of it. As you said, the set ups leading into them are interesting, and that by far makes them some of the best on TRvid even if you skip the ad part itself.
The set-up is definitely interesting, but I don't need to see a bunch of ads about the same thing over and over. It also doesn't help that Grunty Boi's voice is especially high-pitched and actually quite annoying.
2:08 I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the mudkip line especially swampert but sadly even if I did become a creator like you and Jaiden I would never become as popular since I have zero talents but maybe zwiggo could finish the trio?
People saying Shedinja going to be broken, I don't think so. Also yeah same with if it has levitate, like I don't know if you made Flygon or Hydreigon electric type would that hinder it more than help? I'm sure Gengar could thrive, especially if megas were there... too bad gamefreak tries to forget megas exist while all their spin offs are flourishing from it like Go, Masters, the anime.
"Pokémon are harmless creatures" Yeah, lol. Reminds me of a funny thing that happened to me in Shining Pearl: I nicknamed my Drifloon "Amber Alert"* and then I was absolutely delighted to see you can walk Drifloon in Amity Square. I entered the Square from the east entrance and quickly came across a little girl. I walked in circles around her for a bit, trying to get a Screenshot that looks like Amber Alert is about to abduct her (because my humor is that dark and I'll happily go to hell for it 😈), then when I was done goofing around, I walked up north a few steps and found *a hiker with a Drifloon near the little girl!* Like hold up! No way the devs are as messed up as I am! 😂🤣 *(I really should've reset for a shiny with that name, but I lacked the patience...)
I would like to see a video on annoyingly difficult items to obtain. For example: a 4% chance to find a lucky egg on a 4% encounter chancy with a 4% catch rate in only two areas of the Safari Zone in the entirety of Pokemon Fire Red. I understand that the lucky egg is very good, but if it's on a Pokemon that's that rare I think the odds should be boosted a little bit. A Max of 10%.
2:08 I would complete the trio. Swampert is my favorite Water starter and my third favorite starter in general. It's only beaten by Rillaboom and Infernape.
