Previously, Pearl and Luca (with the help of Lawrence and Captain Ron) successfully defeated and captured the raging Alpha Mega Gyarados outside of Portobello Port and kept it out of Team Nasty's clutches! Now that the storm has calmed, it's time to figure out what enraged it in the first place. How did the AMG Mega Evolve on its own?

Previously, Pearl, Luca, Bug Catcher Oliver, and Dakota descended into the sewers of Portobello Port to find Pearl's long-lost Muk. After discovering that it had grown much larger and stronger feasting on the slime of the city, Pearl finally captured Petri Dish the Muk!

It's Christmas Eve, and Pearl and Luca are spending the holidays at the Enoki Village Pokémon Lab with friends new and old. All is calm, all is bright... until Danny Delibird shows up with his annual problem! What trouble has Danny gotten himself and his "elves" into this time? What is the Iron Bundle?

Previously, Pearl and Luca rushed Bug Catcher Oliver to Portobello Port to get treatment for his massive Beedrill sting. At the Pokemon Center, a couple of Rangers informed our heroes that mysterious Pokémon have been running amok and causing a disturbance in the Enoki Woods. To combat this new threat, the Rangers are sponsoring a Bug-Catching Contest! But as the crew was preparing for tomorrow's contest, Pearl noticed a familiar smell. What awaits our heroes in the sewers of Portobello? Will Pearl be reunited with Muk at long last? And how long can Chuck the Shuckle keep the stink away?? GM: Jonah M.

Previously, Pearl and Luca encountered Bug Catcher Oliver, an interesting young fellow from the Kanto Region! After an intense battle between Pearl and Oliver, the young Bug Catcher fell unconscious from the enormous Beedrill sting on his head.

Previously, Pearl and Luca returned to the Poké Place Market for some post-gym shopping! Roxanne, Bonnaroo, Elle, Tarzan, and Toofus were rewarded for their efforts in the battle against Mortimer with some new swag! Now that our heroes are back on the road, they're making their way along Route 1 to Portobello Port to investigate the city's gym leader, Lawrence. But first... who's this kid in the bushes?

Previously, Luca defeated Mortimer in a nail-biting battle, earning both the Grunge Badge and some exciting new evolutions for key members of Teen Squad! After the battle, Pearl and Luca spoke with Mortimer and decided to head back to Portobello Port to learn more about the city's gym leader, Lawrence.

Previously, Pearl and Luca continued exploring the Bolete Gym in their own ways. Luca kept fighting his way up through the caverns while Pearl snuck around and investigated Mortimer's green room. Neither got exactly what they were hoping for, as Pearl couldn't find any evidence of wrongdoing and Luca got more than he bargained for with some of the gym trainers! But now Luca has finally made it up to the stadium level and is preparing to face Mortimer. Will the young Salvatore crumble under the pressure of his family name? Or will he and his companions rise to the occasion and emerge victorious? And  will Pearl get a chance to interrogate Mortimer herself?? GM: Jonah M.

Previously, Pearl and Luca returned to the Bolete City Gym so Luca could battle Mortimer for the Grunge Badge and give Pearl a chance to investigate any potential nefarious activity. As they parted ways, Pearl demonstrated the art of subtlety in her role as "tiny maintenance man" while Luca battled Ferris, the first gym trainer. As Luca continues to make his way through the caverns, will Pearl find any incriminating evidence? Will this gym prove to be more of a challenge than Luca thought?

Previously, Pearl and Luca sat back and let Ringo take charge in the interrogation of Aquamarine and the Team Nasty Grunts. And although Aquamarine stayed stone cold, Dusty and Jax melted under the pressure and switched sides! Now that they've got control of the Team Nasty Hideout in the Silly Scoop, Pearl and Luca are letting Ringo handle the last bit of business while they head back to the Bolete City Gym!

Now that they've managed to snag back a shadowy BIG the Octillery (along with other Shadow Pokémon), rescue the evil ice cream shop's captive Vanillite, and capture Aquamarine along with her Team Nasty Grunts, it's time to get some more answers with a good ol' fashioned interrogation!

Previously, Pearl and Luca had a stakeout to gather more intel before infiltrating the Silly Scoop - an ice cream parlor hiding a sinister Team Nasty Hideout in its basement! With the help of their old pal Ringo, they made it into the base hidden inside a couple of crates. Now that they've cracked this case wide open, it's time to search the hideout and find BIG!

Previously, Pearl and Luca attempted to break into Aquamarine's office to find out more about the whereabouts of the aquarium's missing Octillery, BIG. After a series of close calls, the duo and their Pokémon managed to make it out without getting caught! Now that they've got some more clues in hand, they're closing in on Team Nasty's trail and getting ready to make a big move! First thing's first, though: a bit more reconnaissance is needed before they can bust up this Team Nasty hideout! What will our heroes see during their ice cream stakeout?

Last time, Pearl was on a righteous rampage as she hunted for clues to the whereabouts of BIG, the shiny Octillery currently missing from the Bolete Aquarium. Even though he had supposedly been taken to a research institute for study, something seemed fishy. Now, with the help of Jeff the Security Guard, Pearl and Luca are busting into Aquamarine's office to search for answers. Will they be able to execute this stealth mission? Will Aquamarine remain unaware of their intrusion? And how many more days will Pearl have to add to Jeff's all-expense-paid cruise to keep him cooperating?? GM: Jonah M.

Previously, Pearl and Luca did some training on Route 3, battling wild Pokémon and a strange trainer along the way and gaining enough experience for Elmer to evolve into a Togetic and Lotsa to evolve into a Bewear! Once they made it back to Bolete City, a trip to the aquarium revealed that BIG the Octillery was missing! Our heroes may have had a different plan coming into the city, but now Pearl has a singular focus: find BIG. Who will stand in her way?

Previously, Pearl and Luca stopped by the daycare to see Gentleman Luke, drop off some Pokémon, and get some new eggs! Now they're continuing along Route 3 toward Bolete City, and taking it easy for a change! A short, easily accessible route like this seems like the perfect place for some training.

Previously, Pearl and the gang spent some time at the Pretty Petilil Flower Shop and enjoyed some fresh Poffins made by Coconut! Now that Pearl's time slot is coming up over at the Contest Hall, it's time to see what her Pokémon have got! First up is the Normal Rank Smart Contest. What tourists will Pearl be competing against?

Previously, Pearl and Luca went to the Encore Casino to get more info about what happened there during the Big Snag. While they didn't get all the intel they hoped for, they did get a change to meet Mrs. Fable, who seemed to be keeping some secrets of her own. After meeting up with Shane and Bailey, our heroes are getting ready to leave town! But first, what shopping adventures will they find themselves on? What other local events could distract them from heading toward their next destination? Is anyone feeling hungry for poffins?? GM: Jonah M.

Last time, Pearl and friends (but mostly Pearl) had the thrill of a lifetime at Chuck E. Chespin's to celebrate their triumph over Team Smoke at The Big Snag! Now that the sugar has worn off, it's time to figure out their next steps. What really happened at the Encore Casino? Does the casino's owner have something to hide?

Last time, Pearl and Luca went to investigate the mysterious Team Smoke Lab. With the help of their adult allies, they managed to piece together more clues about what Team Smoke has been up to, and get their hands on some fancy new tech. But it's getting late and Pearl is getting loopy, so it looks like it's time for bed! But in the morning... it's time for post-gym shopping! Where will the team go to get fabulous prizes? Will there be pizza involved? How much of sugar-rush Pearl can the grown-ups handle?? GM: Jonah M.

Previously, our heroes dealt with some of the aftermath of The Big Snag. After a debrief at Dedenny's, Pearl and Luca (along with Detective Reynolds, Louis, and Professor Nichols) are going to take a closer look at the Team Smoke Lab. What other strange experiments have they been working on? What do they hope to achieve? And will there be shenanigans to lighten the mood?? GM: Jonah M.

In the aftermath of The Big Snag, our heroes have some loose ends to tie up. The battle turned out in Pearl and friends' favor, but was this as thorough a victory as it seems? Questions remain: What is happening with Professor Nichols and the Salvatores down in the lab? What was Team Nasty up to while this all went down? And what did the smoke on the roof actually do??

Previously, Pearl and Luca faced off against each other in the final round of the Crimini City Fighting Tournament. With Fanta and Jackie Cham of Team Punch triumphing over Toofus and Maximilian of Teen Squad, nothing stands between Pearl and her exhibition match with Leroy, except... whatever these mysterious baddies are plotting! Will Pearl make through it her entire battle against the Gym Leader? What are Leroy and his suspicious allies plotting? Where is Sully?

Pearl and Luca have been whisked away to a whimsical (or maybe not-so-whimsical) winter wonderland where everything looks like claymation in this episode inspired by classic Rankin/Bass Christmas specials! It seems that Danny Delibird has summoned them here for some unknown purpose... What's wrong in the all-Pokémon settlement of Velvet Foot Village? What is the pseudo-mayoral authoritarian figure up to? Can our heroes save Christmas through the power of friendship?? GM: Jonah M.

Previously, Pearl and Luca both advanced to the fourth and final round of the Crimini City Fighting Tournament! Maximilian hit hard, but Brian's Wobbuffet took him down with it! Pearl kept her cool as Fanta triumphed over Shane's Sliggoo and Kadabra! And Toofus gave all he had against Hitmonlee and Hitmontop to get Luca the win over The Man! Now the best friends must face off against each other. Who will get a chance to fight the Gym Leader? What will this mean for their plans? And what is happening outside of this arena?? GM: Jonah M.

Last time, Pearl and Luca advanced through the bracket of the Crimini City Fighting Tournament, making it past the first round! Luca's Teen Squad stayed strong against Tom's Krusty Krew and Jackie Cham made Pearl and Team Punch proud as she annihilated Jasper's Fancy Lads! Now the rest of round two awaits - will Luca outsmart Brian and Team Punching Bag? Who else will advance to round three?

Previously, Pearl and the rest of the team in the Noibatcave figured out a plan for the Crimini City Fighting Tournament... to the best of their ability. With some factors still unknown (like the whereabouts of the still-missing Sully), they went with their gut and set their pieces in place. Now the Tournament is here, and Pearl has already advanced to the second round! But will Luca join her as she advances through the bracket? What challenging foes await? What Pokémon will taste the glory of victory? And will anyone absolutely choke under the pressure?? GM: Jonah M.

Previously, Detective Reynolds spent the night sneaking around the city's shady underbelly with Louis as they searched for more intel about what is being planned for the Fighting Tournament as well as clues to Sully's whereabouts. After calling in some reinforcements, they find themselves back in the Noibatcave ready for an early morning meeting. What will our heroes plan to stop the dastardly deeds already set in motion? Will the children be able to hold their own in the Fighting Tournament? And will Pearl please get out of bed so that this meeting can get started?? GM: Jonah M.

It's Elmer and Zilla's first Halloween, so Pearl and Luca have decided to take them out for a night of frightful fun at Crimini City's most highly-rated haunted attraction: Father Spooky's Creepy Emporium!

Previously, Luca and Sully went to the Crimini City Gym to sign Luca up for the Fighting Tournament and gather information. After checking into a hotel room, Sully decided to stay behind and attempt to establish herself as a double agent. As night comes, Pearl and Luca may be getting ready to settle in, but Detective Reynolds won't be getting much sleep tonight. What will Reynolds discover as he explores beneath the city streets? Will he find out what Sully has been up to this afternoon? And will Reynolds and Louis ever get to just hang out?? DM: Jonah M.

Previously, Pearl and Detective Reynolds (aka "Uncle Ryan") went to the Crimini City Gym to register Pearl for the Fighting Tournament. After settling on a team, Pearl convinced an unsuspecting security guard to give her a tour and she managed to hack into the building's security cameras. Now it's Luca and Sully's turn, and they've got some tricks up their sleeve. Who will Luca register on his tournament team? What will they discover in their investigation?

Previously, Pearl and the gang all reconnected in Detective Reynolds' Noibatcave and began to plan for the Fighting Tournament. After getting some crucial intel from Ringo, our heroes are setting out to make the most of this last day before the tournament by preparing and gathering as much info as they can! Which Pokémon will Pearl register for her tournament team? Can she and Reynolds find a way into the Gym's security office? And can Pearl convincingly fake having bowel problems?? DM: Jonah M.

Pearl, Luca, and Sully's arrival into Crimini City was not as friendly as they'd hoped it would be. Immediately after entering the city limits, they were accosted by members of Team Nasty and Ringo got away! At least, they thought he did! But now, with a new unlikely ally on the inside and old allies reconnecting, our heroes are gearing up for whatever is happening at the Fighting Tournament. Where in Crimini City could Detective Reynolds have found a safe place to stay? Is Professor Nichols doing alright? And how long can Sarah and Jonah discuss musical theatre in one episode??

Previously, Pearl and Luca battled against Hawlucha and Ditto in the ruins of Old Crimini to prove they were strong enough to become the Pokémon's new trainers. After the angsty bird and sentient pink blob agreed to come along, our heroes finally arrived in Crimini City. What secrets lurk in the shadows of this hazy city?

Previously, Pearl and Luca tested their mettle against a Machoke and Primeape in Mr. Leftovers' Pokemon Colosseum and came out on top with Mudslide, Pebble and Maximilian! After receiving their prizes from the trash-filled Reuniclus, they encountered the Hawlucha and Ditto duo who had previously lost their fight in the arena. After talking with Darla, the Pokémon agreed to a battle to see if they would come along with Pearl and Luca. Will these companions find a place with the Cuddle Bunch and Teen Squad? Will they prove their honor in battle? And will our heroes finally make it to Crimini City?? DM: Jonah M.

Previously, Pearl and Luca made their way into the ruins of Old Crimini with Sully and Ringo. After encountering a couple of unfriendly inhabitants in the seeming ghost town, they realized there was some sort of activity happening in one of the few standing buildings among the city's ruins. Now that they've stumbled into some sort of Pokémon-led fighting arena, our heroes are in a tight spot! Will Pearl and Luca make it away from the mob of angry Pokémon unscathed?

Previously, Pearl and Luca (along with their chaperone and imprisoned outlaw) found themselves at the Lonely Oasis, the last remnant of the former Crimini Lake. They encountered a couple of rowdy new Pokémon friends and got some rest for the evening. Now, they continue their journey to Crimini City, approaching Old Crimini and the ruins of the original city.

Afterward, Ninetales tasked our heroes with carrying the Radiant Stone so that it could take its true form and return to where it belongs. And to help them, she gave Darla and Maximilian the ability to talk! With a new quest and a new captive, our crew resumes their journey to Crimini City! What distractions lie along the way?
