The tournament is starting! The final tournament actually has two tournaments and only one is actually final and this week's arc is the semi-final. It's a round robin style tournament between Ash and two other folks.

EP269 “Love, Pokémon Style” has Macy the fire trainer combat Ash for a date. EP270 “Tie One On!” brings back an old friend Vinny but with a new name and a cape! Some cool pokemon this week shown are Quilava, Magcargo, Meganium, and Azumarill. Lots of exciting battles this week and more to come in the Johto Silver Conference!

More babies! I guess it's babies with weird heads week on TKAD?!! The journey to Mt. Silver continues this week in Johto Master Quest. Ep. 263 “Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid“ reminds us that Pokemon always had weird heads (I'm looking at you, ‘new Pokemon designs suck' crowd). Ep. 264 “You're a Star, Larvitar!” had Larvitar stepping into its own and Ash encountering a strong Magby. We are getting close to the Johto finale arc and you won't want to miss the excitement!

It's Crown week on TKAD! It's a pair of episodes fit for royalty, because we have a whole bunch of exciting pokemon. We've got Entei, we've got Forretress, we've got Misdreavus, we've got Slowking! In Ep 261 “Entei at Your Own Risk”, we are reminded that the pokemon anime loves to tease and bait us. Ep 262 “A Crowning Achievement” shares the prophecy of the Slowking and has a slowpoke named Arthur (that's probably just a coincidence). TKAD is getting closer to Mt. Silver and the end of Johto and we would love it if you joined us!

TKAD is going to its high school reunion and reuniting with old friends! Ep 259 “Lapras of Luxury” is the re-appearance of Ash's Lapras from the Orange Islands, all grown up and ready to mess up Team Rocket. Ep 259 also kicks off another mini-arc where Ash and the gang need to help Professor Elm investigate a mysterious egg. Ep 260 “Hatch Me If You Can” reorients the arc in the direction of Mt. Silver and introduces us to the shy baby rock monster Larvitar. We're in the last stretch of the Master Quest and you won't want to miss out!

Movie night: The Podcast! The Pokemon Master Quest adventures continue with the theatrical release “Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias”! The fifth mainline Pokemon movie finds our heroes possibly being heroes or simply being acquainted with heroes who are turkey jet planes. The movie takes place in Venice, Italy, and features spaghetti and gelato. This was a first time viewing experience for Graham and Kellan hadn't done a re-watch since he was a fledgling Pokemon apprentice, so listeners should prepare for some raw reactions.

We also meet Clair, Dratini and the mystical dragon fang.
