  • GDAŃSK GETS SPOOKY! | Shadow Machamp, a Historic Repeat, & Yet Another Top Cut Finish

    Shadow Machamp was EVERYWHERE in Gdańsk, but Martijn brought two Pokémon nobody else dared to use — and still finished in the Top 5!

    This week, Amanda and Martijn break down a wild Halloween weekend at the Gdańsk Regional Championships. We go through Martijn's tournament run, from his unusual team choices and closest battles to his Top 5 finish, while PvPDavid07 makes history as the only player to successfully defend his Regional Championship title.

    We also look at the shifting Pokémon GO PvP meta, the players making waves, and Amanda's first time working behind the scenes in tournament production — complete with cosplay, broadcast chaos, and a new appreciation for everything that happens off-camera.

    Plus, we're getting into the Halloween spirit with some spooooooky Pokedex entries, catching up on upcoming Pokémon GO events, raids, and Bottle Caps, and checking in on the Tap Tap Draft.

  • SEASON OF CHAMPIONS ?? | The Possible Return of Cyrus & Winning Abroad

    Former champions are back, titles are being won abroad, and Martijn might be dusting off a very questionable costume.

    This week, Amanda and Martijn dig into the season of returning champions, with past winners finding their form again and players taking titles across different regions. We also celebrate the first official LATAM stream in Puebla, talk about what it means for the growing competitive Pokémon GO scene, and ask the big question once again: why is Mimikyu still banned?

    We recap the beautiful city of Nice, look ahead to the Gdansk Regional in Poland, and make the case for traveling to Europe to compete. After all, why not play some Pokémon GO while exploring some pretty cool cities?

    Plus, a Tap Tap Draft check-in, Mega Sableye hype, and far too long spent explaining how Minior works. And Martijn reveals he'll bring back his Cyrus cosplay if he makes Day 2 in Gdansk. Because apparently, the key to competitive success is dressing like the leader of Team Galactic.

  • ICY FORECAST AT THE REGIONALS | Shadow Alolan Ninetales Takes Over!
    Three Regionals, three continents, and the forecast is suddenly looking very, very icy.
    This week, Amanda and Martijn break down Brisbane, Frankfurt, and Recife as Shadow Alolan Ninetales takes over the meta, Shadow Hydreigon continues to cause chaos, and some unexpected picks prove there's still room to get creative. We look at what's working, what's not, and whether the current meta is actually healthy — or starting to feel a little too much like rock-paper-scissors.
    We also talk about LndsRargef making history with a record seventh title, a small-but-stacked Recife field, and what all three tournaments might be telling us ahead of Louisville.
    Plus, Lundberger is currently winning the Tap Tap Draft, Inadequance takes a Pokemon GO detour to the European Space Agency, and we somehow find time for lucky trades, gift-pin arguments, and an increasingly unnecessary PokeStop unique-spin rivalry.
    Strap in. It's cold out there.

  • PLANES, TRAINING & BALTIMORE | We've kicked off the 2027 Season!
    This week, Amanda and Martijn catch up on everything from missed flights and Martijn's actual job to the mysterious disappearance of Team GO Rocket balloons — before getting into the competitive stuff.
    We talk about our starts to the new GBL season (spoiler: neither of us is Veteran yet), then dive into the Baltimore Regional, including the winning Zweilous, the current Pokemon GO PvP meta, and some of the best plays from the weekend.
    Plus, we make our next draft picks, look ahead to upcoming Play! Pokemon events, and finish by blind ranking Pokemon GO PvP players — which surely won't cause any problems whatsoever.

  • TAP TAP CAST IS BACK! | A New Era of Pokémon GO PvP
    We're so back, baby.
    Inadequance (Martijn) and Lundberger (Amanda) are returning to the mic with a brand-new format.
    The original Tap Tap Cast was all about bringing on Pokémon GO PvP players, getting to know the people behind the battles, and talking competitive Pokémon. This time, we're keeping the guests out and letting the hosts loose.
    Each episode, Martijn and Amanda will catch up on what's happening in Pokémon GO PvP — the competitive scene, game updates, current events, the meta, and whatever else actually matters to players.
    And then there's the draft.
    At the end of every episode, Martijn and Amanda will each select a player to join their respective "team" for the 2027 season. Once a player is drafted, they're off the board. By the end of the season, we'll find out who built the better roster.
    Welcome back to Tap Tap Cast.
