Holt and Kofi break down the biggest news from 2022's first month in Pokemon. The heavy discussion revolves around the release of Pokemon's newest game, Legends: Arceus (the good), Leonhart's 90's Pop-Up Shop (the bad), and a quick mention of last episode's focus in Logan Paul's investment (the ugly). We discuss some new TCG news and touch upon some collecting as always! DISCLAIMER: We recorded this episode hours before Leonhart actually released a statement regarding feedback from the Pop-Up Shop, so we will have a follow-up on this topic in the next episode. We stand by his comments and are in support of Pokemon's biggest contributor on the Youtube and collecting stage.
