Nintendo Switch hardware problems Just days after the release of the Nintendo Switch, gamers are seeing obvious hardware and software issues with this new console. Though there are multiple instances on web shows and on live TV that show these manufacturing issues with the Nintendo Switch, there's currently no way to know how many people are having issues. Check out the video in this Kotaku article. The manufacturing defects seem embarrassing for Nintendo, and as a Nintendo fanboy, I feel horrible for Nintendo. This doesn't deter me from buying the Switch. I'm just glad I've decided to wait a couple months before buying one.
Pokémon the Movie 20: I Choose You full trailer Pokémon's 20th movie is the story of Ash and Pikachu's first encounter. This movie is like nostalgia threw up in my Pokémon hat. I love it! Okay, I'm a little disappointed that it's not the entire Indigo League story condensed into one super long movie, but I'm hoping they continue with this and release extended versions of the classic TV show à la Dragon Ball Z Kai. Or maybe they'll only make this one movie and my heart will forever be broken because I want more classic Pokémon. Or I can just keep rewatching it on Netflix.
Mewtwonite X and Y code for Pokémon Sun and Moon
M2DESCENT
Use the above code to get Mega Stones Mewtwonite X and Mewtwonite Y in your Pokémon Sun or Moon games. Remember, you can't find Mewtwo in Sun or Moon, but you can transfer one over from your virtual console 3DS versions of Red, Blue or Yellow using the Pokémon Bank. Likewise, you can use the Pokémon Bank to transfer Mewtwo from Pokémon X and Y into Sun and Moon.
Legendaries in Pokémon GO In an interview with Wired, Niantic CEO John Hanke has confirmed that Legendary Pokémon will be released for Pokémon GO sometime in 2017. I think it's weird that Niantic added Johto region Pokémon before adding Kanto Legendaries. Additionally, gym battles and playing together will be improved.
Question of the Episode If you bought a Nintendo Switch, are you having any manufacturing defects or problems? What are your opinions on Nintendo (possibly unknowingly) releasing faulty Nintendo Switch consoles?
Pokedex Radio is back! Trainers! You asked for it, you got it! I'm bringing back the Pokedex Radio podcast. I thought it would be appropriate to bring back the show around it's 8th anniversary - March 6, 2017. I can't believe it's been so long since I started this podcast, and I can't believe it's been so long since I've recorded an episode!
I'm happy to be back on the mic, bringing you the latest and greatest Pokémon news.
Pokémon Day February 27, 2017, marks the 21st anniversary of the launch of the Pokémon games in Japan back in 1996. Various events and promotions are planned for Pokémon GO, Pokémon TV, Amazon Video and other venues to celebrate the occasion.
Visit the official Pokémon.com news article Celebrate Pokémon Day for the full details.
Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You trailer OH MY ARCEUS! The 20th Pokémon movie is a throwback to the classic days of Pokémon: Indigo League. Not much is known yet about the plot, but it will definitely show the beginning of Ash's journey.
The full trailer was released after recording this episode, so we'll talk more about Pokémon the Movie 20: I Choose You in next week's episode of Pokedex Radio.
Either way, I'm super excited for this movie! Did you notice the different logo on Ash's Pokémon League Expo hat? It's a cross between the original Pokémon League Expo hat and Ash's new Pokémon: Sun and Moon series hat.
Nintendo Switch release The Nintendo Switch was released on March 3, 2017, after the recording of this episode. A combination of portable and stationary gaming. The Switch retails for $299 USD. With all the different playing options, I'm excited to see where Nintendo goes with the Switch. I'll elaborate more in future episodes about my opinion on this new console.
Pokémon: The First Movie sells for $10 online. Man searches for Shiny Mewtwo for 5 years. Recreation of the Kanto region in Minecraft. Steven Reich of PokéPress interviews Ishaan Jagiasi, the 2014 Pokémon US Nationals TCG Senior Division Champion. Super Smash Bros. demo is brought to attendees of San Diego Comic-Con.
