Pokécharms

We've all been absent last week for various reasons (except Doctor Oak who managed to materialize on Sunday) - but this week, we're back on Twitch and Youtube for our usual stream shenangians.

Tonight (Friday) at 10pm BST (Your timezone here) - I'm back in Sinnoh - where, among other things, we handle a potential bomb threat and hopefully survive whatever our next encounter is.

Tomorrow (Saturday), at the same time, DoctorOak hits Johto again in Pokémon SoulSilver (in which, presumably, Ecruteak happens), and the next day (Sunday), Teapot returns to Unova in Pokémon White and... actually gets on with the plot after getting out of Twist Mountain? We can only hope.


As usual, make sure you're following us on...

This month's edition of Japanese magazine CoroCoro has begun to leak and brings with it some exciting news about up-coming Nintendo Switch games Pokémon Let's Go, Eevee and Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu.

Read on to find out more!

It's been a while, but tonight we're going back to Johto after a busy couple of weeks away. This week we're only streaming tonight (Sunday) but be sure to join us for the usual conversational soup and probably some mild progress through Pokemon SoulSilver (and most likely, some grinding).

Normal service will resume with the streams next week, so to make sure you keep up with SoulSilver as well as the Pokemon White play-through, follow us on Twitch, Youtube, Facebook and Twitter to be kept up to date with when we're going live - and don't forget that as well as watching live in this very post, you can always find our Twitch channel hosted live on our permanent Twitch page....

Various circumstances caused our stream schedule to shift slightly this week - but we're still on for your weekly dose of Pokémon Games on Twitch and Youtube.

Tonight (Saturday) at 10pm BST (Your timezone here) - yes, that soon, apologies for the delayed announcement - It's back to Sinnoh with me and my Pokémon Platinum run - We've conquered Maylene - next stop, punching a few goons with ridiculous outfits and possibly, if we make it that far, the Frog Whisperer. We'll just have to wait and see.

Tomorrow (Sunday), at the same time, DoctorOak hits Johto again in Pokémon SoulSilver (where, if memory serves, dishonour might befall some cows), and the next day (Monday), Teapot returns to Unova in Pokémon White, climbs a graveyard, rings a bell, and gets shot out of a cannon. Fun times!~...

Hours later, another trailer released in Japan - this time without an English version popping up later.


The trailer certainly seems to show the game taking a few more pages out of Go's playbook. Apparently, the encounters with the three Legendary Birds at least also involve battling them, and - akin to one of Go's most frustrating elements - some wild Pokémon are prone to running away. The trailer also briefly shows (for a split second) what might be a new Mini-Game involving Pikachu - and (also for a split second) it also shows a cameo by Jessie, James and Meowth - so one may assume that their brief cameos from Yellow are to be integrated into this game.

On other news, the 21st Pokémon Movie, Everyone's Story, was finally released in Japan yesterday - and as per usual, its ending showed a brief teaser for next year's movie, revealing its title as "Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution". Because the last time someone tried to...

Shortly ago, a new trailer was revealed for Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon Let's Go, Eevee! Showcasing a bit more about the games.


Not much actual news was revealed in this trailer - but you can read more about what WAS revealed in this trailer here.

Now that June's Legendary Pokémon distribution has ended, it's time to turn your attention towards the next duo for this event: Thundurus for Pokémon Sun & Ultra Sun, and Tornadus for Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon. Like with the previous giveaways, how you'll need to go about obtaining these two - and when - depends on where you live. Click through to find out more!...
