167. Burn In, Burn Out

Lured Up Podcast 167 Record Date - 2/17/2021 Publish Date - 2/19/2021   In our final week before the Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto, we dig in to last week’s events including the Lunar New Year Event and the Valentine’s Day 2021 Event. These events were a refreshing change from the Regional Celebration events that we have been accustomed to over the last few weeks.    In addition to the Kanto Celebration Event that we discussed last week, we also had the announcement of the Kanto Raid Day coming at the end of the month featuring the Kanto Birds and the return of Giovanni. This event is a bit strange as while it is a Raid event, it also has a Team GO Rocket element including the opportunity to TM away Frustration from Shadow Pokémon. As we look forward to March, we have our first Community Day announced with Fletchling!    We wrap up our episode with a Poke The Bear segment looking at the current feeling of event burn out within the community. While some enjoy the onslaught, we can all agree that the pacing of the game has been nuts, and leaves little to the imagination when it comes to the future. Is this just our new norm? Let’s dig in and see what the community thinks!   February Events - http://bit.ly/LU165February Lunar New Year - http://bit.ly/LU165LunarNewYear Valentine’s Day 2021 - http://bit.ly/LU166Valentines Fletchling Community Day - http://bit.ly/LU167Fletchling  Kanto Raid Day - http://bit.ly/LU167Raid  Poke The Bear - http://bit.ly/LU167PokeTheBear    Support the show by shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate    Pokémon Professor Network Merch Store - https://bit.ly/PPNMerchStore  Secret League Pin - http://bit.ly/SecretLeaguePin  Google Calendar - https://bit.ly/LuredUpGoogleCalendar  Willow’s Almanac - https://bit.ly/LU127WillowsAlmanac    [email protected]    Inappropriate Voicemail, Text, and Picture Line - 732-835-8639  http://pokemonprofessor.com  https://www.luredup.com http://bit.ly/PokeProfNetPatreon  http://bit.ly/PokeProfNetFacebook  http://bit.ly/PokeProfNetTwitter  http://bit.ly/PokeProfNetYouTube  http://bit.ly/PokeProfNetInstagram  http://bit.ly/LuredUpTumblr  http://bit.ly/LuredUpApplePodcasts   http://bit.ly/LuredUpSpotify  http://bit.ly/LuredUpStitcher  http://bit.ly/LuredUpGooglePodcasts  http://bit.ly/LuredUpIHeartRadio  https://bit.ly/LUPodchaser    Hosts Ken Pescatore Adam Tuttle   Writer and Producer Ken Pescatore   Executive Producer  Paul Bhatt   Show music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons   ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com   Intro Music Lake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix)  Tetracase GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/tetracase  https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0   Break Music National Park Mikel & GameChops GameChops - Poké & Chill http://smarturl.it/pokechill https://twitter.com/mikel_beats   Outro Music Vast Poni Canyon CG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix) GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/  http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beats https://soundcloud.com/glitchxcity Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2020Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.Lured Up and Pokémon Professor are not affiliated with Niantic Inc., The Pokémon Company, Game Freak or Nintendo.   #pokemon #pokemongo #podcast
