This week Ciaran and Aneil take a look at the Tokyo Champions League results. We discuss what did well and our thoughts on the Stellar Crown format. We also take a look at some crazy new cards and question what the game designers are thinking?!

In what may be the most historic run in our (young) podcast's history - Ciaran went all the way to the finals at the Baltimore Regional Championships using Lugia VStar!

Aneil is still on the Big Island so Ciaran is joined by one of Canada's young stars, Jack Moore. Jack is most famous for his Top 8 at Baltimore Regionals 2022 with Morepeko Control, but has been a consistent player in the Post Covid era. Most recently he made day 2 at the World Championships with Regidrago VSTAR. Jack goes into detail about his growth as a player, how he practices for events, how he built his Regidrago deck, and how he would play it going forward!

Ciaran and Aneil breakdown the 2024 Pokémon World Championships, filmed live from Hilo, Hawaii! 🏝️ This week, we dive deep into:

Our Tournament Runs: Hear the inside scoop as we recount our personal experiences and key highlights from our matches.

Pokémon Center Fiasco: The Pokémon Center was a free for all this year. What could have been done to improve it and will they ever make it better?

Metagame Analysis: We analyze the shifting metagame and discuss how it influenced the championship outcomes plus look ahead to Baltimore.

Shrouded Fable is finally here and we have had a plethora of online tournaments to analyze. We also go through the results from the Worlds testing tournament held in Japan. We do our best to give our thoughts on every single deck that we think will be relevant at Worlds!

We've been to a combined 10 Pokèmon TCG World Championships, and we have learned A LOT. We take you through those experiences as we prepare for Honolulu 2024, we share some of the decks we played and our rationales, as well as share the most important lessons we've learned over the years. These tips can be taken to Worlds 2024, or any other big tournament throughout the circuit.

Thanks for being here for a bit of a different episode!

Ciaran's apartment no longer looks like Atlantis so he can help review our impact set after Worlds 2024! Reviewing cards like Terapagos ex, Hydrapple ex, Cinderace ex, and more - which of the cards we reviewed today do you think will have the biggest impact on the meta? Were there any cards we over or under valued?
