It is time for us to go back to the future of Pokémon! Students Max Roberts and Logan Moore study open world experimentation alongside Professor Chris Compendio. Can a mainline Pokémon adventure let players do anything or has Game Freak cooked up a paradox of a game?

On Super Chapter Select: Max, Logan, and Chris discuss the mystery of ghost restaurants and the importance of bylines.
