Pokémon Worlds has announced sign-ups to enter a lottery to purchase tickets for the event in Anaheim. Tickets went up in cost and now have new limits. Pokémon TCG Pocket plans to remove trade tokens completely later this year. Claude Plays Pokémon shows us how Pokémon Red & Blue can be used as benchmarks for silly ideas and also makes us second guess what we remember about those games. The Scopely deal for Pokémon GO actually goes through and we readdress the future of this game.

Cresselia soon arrives to Pokémon Sleep and we get Munna as we get closer to that event. Honda makes a Koraidon, but you cannot sit on it. Pokémon GO Global Unova Tour makes as much money as Global Hoenn Tour through app-store purchases, but most likely more due to web-store purchases. The Lucky Trinket had weird limits. We talk about the $87,000 Cheetozard and how Pokémon stuff is really weird. More Triumphant Light talk.
