• FireRed and LeafGreen Isn't $30 and Freezing
    Feb 23 2026

    A local Pokémon TCG shop was asked by Nintendo to change their name and logo after a recent robbery. Our honest thoughts on Pokémon GO Tour: Kalos in LA. FireRed and LeafGreen are coming on Pokémon day and we talk about nostalgia being a prison. Was the add-on for Mega Night worth the cost of admission and time after playing for 8 hours all day?

    Podcast recorded live in a studio with our friends over at GoCast.

  • The 30th Anniversary of Pokémon Begins
    Jan 5 2026

    We look back on some of the Pokémon news that TPCi seemed to deem worthy to write in their retrospective. A neat Japanese Pokémon ecology book is getting an English translation and coming out this Spring. Pocket gets some updates. Pokémon teases a 30th Anniversary logo with a small trailer. We speculate why older games still might not come to the Switch or Switch 2.
