Episode description

This week, we invite Dylan, and Drew on to discuss some Pokemon. We each go around and tell our history with the series; ranging from the video games, movies, and all the way down to the Pokemon manga. We touch base on the legacy of the Pokemon series, which is the third highest selling video game franchise in history. Once we tell our alcoholics anonymous-esque history with the series, we move on to discuss the release of the  Pokemon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition. The re released Pokemon Yellow offers enhanced color graphics, and also brings an interesting Trade and Battle function, where you can do battle with your friends, or perhaps, your rival!

Then we bump uglies with the occult. We discuss the story in which two hundred children, ranging from the ages of 7-12, committed suicide as a result of the eerie Lavender Town theme. We read the theory aloud, with the creepy music in the background, and then weigh our opinions on the incident. Then we discuss our complete and utter failures in the Getting Phat section...

Enjoy the episode!
