We’re back with episode 2 of That Pokémon Podcast, and this one’s packed. Jim Viscardi, Megan Peters, are back from San Diego Comic-Con while Christian Hoffer held the fort down and kick things off with a deep dive into the Squirtle Squad plush chaos and the bizarrely edible vibes of Pikachu ice cream. We dig into the upcoming Shonen Jump x Pokémon collab, Pokémon Center merch madness (Geodude evolution plush, anyone?), and just how into Pokemon Friends we are.
Plus, we talk a possible TCG Pocket scandal, an upcoming Mega Charizard card, the mystery of multiplayer in Pokémon Legends ZA, and how the new Pokémon Play app might actually fix tournaments. The episode also covers a hand puppet line named Bite Buddies, a heartfelt community goodbye, and Megan gets strong-armed into finally playing Scarlet and Violet. Also, yes, we all pick a favorite Charizard forms.
