That Pokemon Podcast

This week on That Pokémon Podcast, Jim, Christian, and Megan dive into the wild world of Pokémon news you didn’t know you needed. From McDonald’s Japan pulling a Happy Meal promo after scalpers trashed the food for the cards, to Mega Gengar’s game-changing TCG ability, to a Milwaukee Brewers rookie pulling a base set Charizard on camera, it’s a mix of chaos and nostalgia. We rank the newest Pokémon Squishmallows, theres another Pokémon Center tangent, and debate the merits of a freshly released Pokémon sea shanty (spoiler: Megan wants more Sharpedo). 

Plus, Palworld parodies, a Pokémon fact of the week, and a listener question on how we each first got into Pokémon.
