That Pokemon Podcast

It’s another packed episode of That Pokémon Podcast, and somehow it still all comes back to Charizard.

This week, Jim, Christian, and Megan break down everything from Pokémon TCG Pocket’s Crimson Blaze to a jaw-dropping $550,000 sale of a first-edition Charizard at auction. The crew digs into why PSA grading continues to dominate the high-end collector market, what CGC’s price gap really means, and why Charizard will never stop being the main character.

They also run through the full list of newly revealed Mega Evolutions in Mega Dimension, including Mega Absol Z, Mega Garchomp Z, Mega Heatran, Mega Golisopod, Mega Scovillain, and the extremely unhinged debut of Mega Starmie in the anime. Along the way, there’s discussion of Pokémon Christmas pop-ups in Japan, Pokémon GO’s New Year event, and what it would actually take to make anyone excited about GO again.

Plus, a new official Pokémon ecology book is on the way, complete with some deeply unsettling facts, and Christian delivers a Psyduck-focused Pokémon Fact of the Week that almost changed Pokémon history forever.
