It's Super Effective: A Pokemon Podcast

TCG Pocket is getting a few quality-of-life updates and almost all of them sound really great! Once again, we pull up revenue numbers to see how Pocket fairs against other gacha games. Pokémon is making a hidden role game like the Resistance or One Night Ultimate Wearwolf that seems to be Team Rocket-themed. No US release date, but the game will drop in Japan soon for under $20. Pokémon Sleep gets a Halloween event. The Santa Cruz skateboards drops this weekend and we talk about designs.

Pokopia gets a spooky new event later this week! Pokémon HOME gets updated adding more storage, transfers of Safari Balls from Pokémon GO and only one-way support from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen. This does not bode well if games like Ruby and Sapphire come out and everything is one-way. The Pokémon Fossil Museum is moving next year to Denver. Pokémon GO adds some overdue quality-of-life updates!

After selling 5 million copies, Pokopia goes on to win Game of the Year in Japan. We talk if it's able to win anything else this year as more games arrive this Fall. The same week that Pokopia wins Game of the Year, Game Freak announced their next game. This non-Pokémon game will use real-world weather data that will affect gameplay. If you're still looking for the latest Pokémon TCG sets, we have the schedule for when more plan to drop this Fall.

Pikachu visits Tim Cook and this begs the question of "does this matter?" Google Health and Pokémon Sleep teams up. VIZ Media is putting out all 24 Pokémon movies on Blu-ray for $400 this year.
