Pokémon Champions Regulation M-C is here, and the competitive landscape just got a whole lot more interesting.

This week on PUCL, Thatch, R. Sigma, and Sharkfinnagen break down the new M-C format, the Pokémon joining the roster, and the new Mega Evolutions shaking up Pokémon Champions. With Rillaboom, Indeedee, Salamence, Baxcalibur and more entering the mix—and Mega Lucario Z, Mega Garchomp Z, Mega Absol Z and other Megas becoming legal—there's a lot to unpack.

Which additions are actually going to matter? What are we excited to use? What looks terrifying, overrated, or just plain weird? And most importantly: is M-C actually making Pokémon Champions better?

Is 6v6 Pokémon really dead in Pokémon Champions? We don't think so.

This week, Thatch is joined by Seth Vilo and Jushiro to break down the latest Pokémon Champions interviews, what the developers actually said about adding new battle formats, and why some of the reaction around the future of 6v6 might be getting a little ahead of itself.

Then, Regulation M-C is here! We dive into our first impressions of the new format, the early metagame taking shape, the new Pokémon and Mega Evolutions making an impact, and what we're doing as players begin to figure M-C out.

What is it actually like to attend the Pokémon World Championships AND Pokémon XP?

Lynian was there for all of it, and this week he joins Thatch and Jushiro to tell us what happened on the ground, from the atmosphere, to Pokémon XP, the biggest moments from Worlds, and everything Pokémon revealed along the way.

We dig into what worked, what surprised him, what Pokémon XP was really like as a fan experience, and all of the news coming out of one of Pokémon's biggest weekends of the year!

This week, Thatch is joined by Sharkfinnigan and R. Sigma for a new kind of PUCL discussion! What started as an experiment with a more structured debate format quickly became a larger conversation about the direction of the Pokémon franchise and what we think the future might hold.

Has Pokémon become too casual? Do we really need a new battle gimmick every generation? How have Pokémon Bank and Pokémon HOME changed our relationship with our collections? And, with Legends: Z-A embracing real-time battles, could we eventually see a future where main-series Pokémon leaves turn-based combat behind?
