Next time instead of voting, just catch groups of 4 ABCD, EFGH, IJKL then do a double battle with your letter's Pokemon. Then even when you both get the same Pokemon there will still be a winner. After 6 battle rounds if it's a tie just roll 4 random letters for a tie breaker.

Treasure Planet clip at 2:42...respect! Absolute gem of a Disney movie and it's a shame it didn't do well in the box office. John absolutely slayed this. He unleashed his inner Cynthia, as shown with his Garchomp destroying Gyarados. He knew exactly what the people wanted when he caught that Clodsire for C...Clodsire is love, Clodsire is life, and Clodsire is a whole vibe. Rika having one on her team is based. And Dragonite is cool and all, but I love Dachsbun so much. I have a senior dachshund with several health problems named Bella (despite her health problems, she's a trooper and still going strong) so I love that it's based off her breed.

"Anywhere, anytime, you and me can have the time of our lives" - Sun Tzu, The Art of War. As the Supreme Leader, John's power with catching Shinies is admirable. The thing about John's Shiny luck is the fact it isn't scripted. He doesn't just go to the spot before recording and says, "Here's a shiny", It just happens. Every. Single. Time. Without fail. It honestly is funny how little Mikey understands the current Pokémon fandom, I respect his convictions though. Anyone who thinks Dragonite is better than the adorable Dachsbun can go hang out with the weak "Dragon Master" Lance and his THREE Dragonite.

3:26 Is Micky not aware of how much people love Clodsire??
Having rewatched this video a couple times, I had a thought. If there’s only one Pokémon with a certain letter, you guys should set a timer for like 5 minutes and hunt for the shiny version of it. First to find it wins the point and if neither find it, then the next letter is worth double points.

Keep up the good work and highly amusing videos, I am entertained each time, also the salty rant had me nearly in tears cause I seriously thought scyther would win the S round but didn't, can't wait to see more (and maybe another salty rant) videos from this channel.
another alphabet challenge! i've been waiting for this! i love the jmc
7:46 WHAT?!?!?!! HUH?!?!?!!
I have an idea for a jmc video: you and john race across Paldea, and your goal is to get as many pokemons as possible. Each pokemon is 1 point. If you get a shiny its 3 points. When one person gets to the goal they get 5 extra points, and the other person has 5 minutes to get to the goal. If they don't they lose 10 points. Once a pokemon is caught, it is off the board. No fast traveling.
Soon, i will starting to take bets on how many shinies John gets on the video
The shiny luck for PM7's keeps get crazy to point that even won Alphabet Challenge.I remember voting on this pull and when I saw shiny Bisharp I was like:"Yeah I know who got this shiny".
I really hoped it was Mikey that caught the shiny Bisharp. One day John won't be the one to find a shiny immediately
Let’s give a thank you to this sponsor for the video Me: starts violently double tapping to the right
