This week,

We break down Global GOFest 2025 in all its shiny and sensational glory! From clutch catches to chaotic raids, we share our favourite moments, our top Pokémon hauls, and the one thing we each think the Pokémon GO Team nailed better than last year—plus what still needs work in the future.

But it’s not just about us. We also spotlight YOUR best GOFest catches from across the community and even feature a WhatsApp voice message from one of our awesome listeners.

Then it’s game time as Ian hosts Play Your Dex Right—can Mark and Milo guess which Pokémon sit higher or lower in the Pokédex? Play along and test your knowledge!

In The News, we react to the just-announced GOFest 2025 Max Finale and dive deep into Pokémon GO’s July Content Update. Expect chatter around Dynamax Pokémon, Solgaleo & Lunala raids, and the spotlight hour that drove us wild (for better or worse!). We also preview the upcoming Hisuian Lilligant Raid Day on July 12th—will it live up to the hype?

And of course, we wrap up with our glittering picks for Shinies of the Week, with each host selecting their top 2–3 sparkling submissions from the community.
