Or for a more dramatic playthrough, Mikey starts the episode with some sort of flight related accident and develops a temporary fear of heigts. Thus only utilizing flightless birds, until he overcomes his fear in the grand finale leading to an epic sky showdown. No clue in which game you could do that though...
With this episode Jim's death count stays the same with 16 deaths (7 self KO's) while Lugia's increases again with 14 deaths (6 self KO's). However I'd say that Lugia might have a rival in Altaria for Mikey's worst pokemon. The total self KO's per team is 19 for John's team and 22 for Mikey's. Since Mikey was curious, out of his 22 self KO's, 14 have been Lunar Dance, 5 of which coming from Lugia.
Have you been tracking the stats of all mons and if you have do you have them for staraptor and empoleon since they're the two oldest members of Mikey's team
@@awqweird Yes I have a list with all pokemon's performances. Empoleon is at 11 deaths (3 self KO's) and Staraptor is at 8 deaths (4 self KO's). They are the second and third highest deaths on Mikey's team only behind Lugia
@@Squirtleman49 granted with how bad his luck has been it probably wouldn't have changed anything but I am kinda curious if Mikey should have kept herdier/stoutland on his team. Even without being able to cycle between them the combination of intimidate and normal stab does seem really good for metronome
1:03:48 After everything Mikey went through this episode, ending off with this reveal that John now can utilize Primal Kyogre for the rest of the playthrough is really funny, and Mikey's reaction says it all.
I see now that Lugia was not using self KOing moves willingly. It had simply chosen to take on the burden of self KOing moves for Mikey's whole team, and now that Lugia has been removed, that burden... that disease, it's starting to spread.
the lanturn did focus energy btw, but i think this playthrough might singlehandedly end Mikey’s special interest in pokémon, bro is having the WORST luck ive ever seen 💀
A good reason why Mikey can use flightless birds for a team Sky playthrough is since now he is a good guy, he is trying to expand and protect the skies. The expanding of the skies is helping flightless birds experience what it's like to be part of the sky.
I would legit actually pay to see how mad Team Sky Mikey would be when he learns that there's a flightless bird committing identify theft against Zapdos.
Team Night Sky's next mission. No context given, just an easter egg if you happen to have watched this playthrough. Can even be during the non-flying bird playthrough if he can make it work
I think that whoever is editing this should put in a little snippet of the song “footloose” whenever one of Mikey’s Pokémon lunar dances, cause they just gotta cut loose
I confess, I suggested the Mega Altaria idea cuz it seemed good on paper, but it flopped so hard, I am sorry Mikey😭 (tho you do have the perfect death count)
Yay! I'm a Cloyster! (At least it's female) And I don't care if he uses it or not, at least I'm in Mikey's squad! Also, the pep talk that Mikey gives to Lugia followed with "I'm tired" & John's laugh, had me in stitches! 😂 Mikey's team constantly keeping him on the edge.
The fact that Mikey keeps getting SPECIFICALLY lunar dance is so brutal. At least Explosion would do damage, Memento would make it easier for the next pokemon, etc.
I hope that after the series ends you'll make more unedited videos in this channel, I've enjoyed them so much. I love your dynamic and the random stories you guys talk about, the banter and stuff. I just wish they were longer, it's getting near the end and honestly I wish it wasn't.
@@lockman5196 The rare candy part, I don't mind. I don't think it changed much in this episode. It's the speeding up regular battles I don't like as you there's of a reaction if they missed a move being used
The rare candy feels like the clean way to "edit" out the grinding, perhaps if this comes up again you can get more candies and just set the level cap as appropriate for gym leaders?
Alternatively, Team Sky determines that there are too many flightless bird pokemon who haven’t had the experience of flight, so Mikey must attempt to teach them how to
If I were Michael I wouldn't have any fun doing these Metronome episodes again and again. Since a few episodes it's clear he isn't able to win at any chance if the Game Master doesn't imply any rule for it
Gurl - go back and watch the Black White 2 Metronome nuzlocke they did. John got absolutely decimated whilst trying to make it more entertaining, whereas Mikey played it safe the whole time and was very dull as a result. All the while, Mikey was guffawing at John being down like, 30+ deaths. Honestly, this doesn't even scratch the surface of karma!
I mean on the bright side for Michael, there's the free "Heatran" and Charizardite Y in the Scorched Slab, the Thundurus soaring encounter with Castform in the party, the Sea Mauville sidequest, and the legendary beast encounter with Lugia in the party, all of which are level 50, so maybe it's not over yet?
Team Sky lore for flightless birds: Team Sky revisits Empoleon, and tries to understand why people like land-based pokemon so much. But by the end of the playthrough, Team Sky ends up with a full team of flighted pokemon anyway.
Boy i love all these videos with you all together. Its so enjoyable watching them. Helps me not think of the pain i have in my neck abd shoulders from surgery last month
all jokes aside, i just want to say you all have done a fantastic job with this series! it’s all been a blast so far and the updates you keep making to keep things moving have been a great choice
Hmm, flightless bird team sky….. Quackqaval (definitely misspelled) Blaziken Eiscue Empoleon Espathra Can’t think of another flightless bird Pokémon, since Delibird actually can fly according to the anime. Other than Galarian Zapdos, which feels like it would be a very late game addition

Michael needs to record himself dancing under a full moon once this series ends
Dressed as joker. Under the pale moon light
And with Dancing In The Moonlight by Toploader in the background
The next full moon is mid-November, so they might finish by then if they go fast
Or at least strap some wings on because it's his birds that like to Luna dance
And then just dramatically faints for poetic effect
"Since I have the Blue Orb, does that mean my Kyogre..."
"I hate you so much."
15:46 "you can kill the man, but not the idea"
Thank you
You can take the team slot away from the Lunar Dancer, but you can’t take the Lunar Dance out of the team slot
"Behind this mask is an idea, Mr. Cready, and ideas are bulletproof!"
Lugia the idea vs Lugia the man
the ingrain situation made me realize it would be fun to see a 'niche move interactions' video from mikey
I concur, boosting
I concur, boosting 2x
Sounds right up his alley. :)
Oh that’d be so cool!
I concur, boosting 3x
You could do the flightless bird episode on April Fools Day, and the lore explanation could be that you were trying to get jet packs for them
Or maybe mikey is doing some charity for flightless birds by getting them jetpacks
Or for a more dramatic playthrough, Mikey starts the episode with some sort of flight related accident and develops a temporary fear of heigts.

Man, can't wait for the next meme review 😂
At this point, I think Mikey has to dance under the full moon's light to escape the grasp of Lunar Dance, or something.
With this episode Jim's death count stays the same with 16 deaths (7 self KO's) while Lugia's increases again with 14 deaths (6 self KO's). However I'd say that Lugia might have a rival in Altaria for Mikey's worst pokemon. The total self KO's per team is 19 for John's team and 22 for Mikey's. Since Mikey was curious, out of his 22 self KO's, 14 have been Lunar Dance, 5 of which coming from Lugia.
Altaria deaths should be put on lugias account. I'm pretty sure it instigated Altaria so it gets put into the PC rather than Lugia☁️
Have you been tracking the stats of all mons and if you have do you have them for staraptor and empoleon since they're the two oldest members of Mikey's team

Mikey - "This isn't even funny any more"
Sir, you are incorrect
1:03:48 After everything Mikey went through this episode, ending off with this reveal that John now can utilize Primal Kyogre for the rest of the playthrough is really funny, and Mikey's reaction says it all.
I see now that Lugia was not using self KOing moves willingly. It had simply chosen to take on the burden of self KOing moves for Mikey's whole team, and now that Lugia has been removed, that burden... that disease, it's starting to spread.
42:31 So, Sacred Fire is a 50% burn rate, and Jirachi has serene grace, making it a guaranteed burn.
yoooo that is such a fun fact
the lanturn did focus energy btw, but i think this playthrough might singlehandedly end Mikey’s special interest in pokémon, bro is having the WORST luck ive ever seen 💀
Mikey: "just one attack"
*proceeds to Volt Switch, planning to run away
Lanturn: "NOPE!"
A good reason why Mikey can use flightless birds for a team Sky playthrough is since now he is a good guy, he is trying to expand and protect the skies. The expanding of the skies is helping flightless birds experience what it's like to be part of the sky.
I would legit actually pay to see how mad Team Sky Mikey would be when he learns that there's a flightless bird committing identify theft against Zapdos.
For John's confusion Ingrain plants roots, casuing any Flying or levitating Pokémon to LOSE it's immunity to Ground for the remainder of the battle.
Rip zapdos, thunderus and crobat
That is intresting
It does make sense since you're planting yourself on the ground
I didn’t know that. Can any flying or levitating pokemon even learn ingrain?
@@potatoe972 Carnivine & Celesteela can/could
John: I haven't replaced Jim
Also John: *literally named his kyogre "Jim 2"*
I mean it was on the squad when he said that
Jim 2 is Jim’s squire
Mikey only one thing can save you from this... BLOW Up The MOON. No moon no lunar dancing shenanigans
The Strouds beat him to that.
So does one blow up the moon by using Moonblast?

they just want to dance in the moonlight
@@Azeriiall oh my god that’s perfect
It should be highway to hell
The lore reason for the flightless bird team sky playthrough could be Team Sky trying to teach those birds how to fly
I confess, I suggested the Mega Altaria idea cuz it seemed good on paper, but it flopped so hard, I am sorry Mikey😭 (tho you do have the perfect death count)
It's kinda funny that the best thing Mega Altaria did for this episode was get a Pixilate Explosion in the Double Battle gym.
Gastrodon was Mikey's best Pokémon, the curse started when it got benched
And Bellossom - that thing didn't put a foot wrong, always brought up super effective hits, and Mikey was just like "Ugh - Bellossom"
Yay another traumatic episode for Michael
I still say this is Karma for how he made fun of PM7's bad luck in the BW2 Metronome Challenge XD
Yay! I'm a Cloyster! (At least it's female) And I don't care if he uses it or not, at least I'm in Mikey's squad!
Also, the pep talk that Mikey gives to Lugia followed with "I'm tired" & John's laugh, had me in stitches! 😂
Mikey's team constantly keeping him on the edge.
So the winner gets a cape, the loser should have to Lunar Dance, yeah?
15:20 doesn't matter if Lugia gets benched, someone will carry on its legacy
Michael cannot escape the power of the Moon
Imagine if cresselia was on Steven’s team
Altaria's Lunar Dance breaking Michael is so much fun to watch.
Team Sky will soon start it's quest to remove the moon from the Sky. Because it is Land and it makes Pokémon dance.
Make your bets, will Lugia kill itself again this episode?
Lugia’s new ability should be Dancer
💯
nope, but its replacement did!
Plot twist Lugia luck gets carried to altaria 😮
@@asterstruck No that was Volkun-Kai's replacement. Mamoswine is Lugia's.
It took four years, but PM7 is finally getting his revenge for the B2W2 one of these.
The fact that Mikey keeps getting SPECIFICALLY lunar dance is so brutal. At least Explosion would do damage, Memento would make it easier for the next pokemon, etc.
It does a full heal, when he switches in a pokemon he's gonna want in the front for as long as he can
Most of these Lunar Dance moments have been done when all the other Pokémon were fully healthy. This _really_ is as bad as the OP says.
@@gengarzilla1685 It's certainly something though
@@gengarzilla1685 also Healing wish
Uh, did anyone else notice that Mickey's Mega Gengar is also holding a Lucky Egg? As in Mickey has TWO LUCKY EGGS!?
I expect to see at least one meme of a lunar dance joke in the next ASPITPIAY.
Fun fact lunar dance has been one of the top 5 most rolled moves
23:19 “You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me.”

Maybe Lunar Dance is a virus that infected Mikey's Pokémon.
That or Kabuto cursed him.
It's sad that they're rushing to complete this. I've enjoyed watching this at a slower pace
@@lockman5196 The rare candy part, I don't mind. I don't think it changed much in this episode. It's the speeding up regular battles I don't like as you there's of a reaction if they missed a move being used
same, and I'm also here to enjoy as many kills as possible, so I'm all in for grinding and facing all the trainers
Your nemesis is Lunar Dance? So you're saying you.....can't fight the moonlight, Mikey?
Not until he invents another alt personality who's goal is to destroy the moon! XD
Mikey gru when
Mikey's team in a nutshell: "The culture, is actually damn good."
Mikey losing his mind about crits when lanturn had a focus energy first is peak
I think Mikey pissed off Sailor Moon somehow...
Idea: Mikey needs to dress as her while lunar dance's music plays in the background, in order to purge the moon sickness.
MandJTV “My worst enemy is Lunar Dance?”
*plays dancing in the moonlight*
I have a feeling Michael is never going to want to do anything Metronome ever again. Including in the JMC
The rare candy feels like the clean way to "edit" out the grinding, perhaps if this comes up again you can get more candies and just set the level cap as appropriate for gym leaders?
a lore reason could be that leader mikey had his license to fly revoked by team maqua and has to do a particular thing to get it back
I can't believe this is the last Pokemon game Mikey will ever touch. Holy cow he got completely boned by RNGesus today
Surprised Michael wasn't too thrilled about the Blastoise encounter, considering he believes it looks great in the moonlight
Flightless bird idea…”when pigs fly” could be the saying and goal to get mamoswine on the team!!!!
We all need to locker room talk to the Lugias in our lives like Michael, even when we're tired.
7:55 John’s reaction to the ground move hitting RayRay
Lugia and Altaria, the new Dancing Duo
47:15 Lore explanation: Team Dark Sky clips Team Sky's wings, Team Sky has to build from the "ground up" to defeat Team Dark Sky.
Is there any fan game that he has not done did this concept would work well in
Alternatively, Team Sky determines that there are too many flightless bird pokemon who haven’t had the experience of flight, so Mikey must attempt to teach them how to

That's quite the Lunar Danse Macabre that Michael is dealing with. 😎

YOU CAN BRAND IT!!! Team Sky wants to expand the sky….by destroying the moon!! More sky for everyone to see without that dumb rock in the way. 17:12
I think it's kinda wild that John found 3 Pokemon that can have intimidate (Tauros, Granbull, Lilipup) and none of them have it
