On this episode of StadiumCast, Holesome & JR are literally pogging out at the upcoming Play! Pokémon World Championships, the future of the structure, and our favorites for the Pokémon Meta and Competitors. Controversy is afoot and we must decide whether GO Battle League is a serious competitive league or be cancelled on Twitter by the Leaderboard Climbers.

On this episode of StadiumCast, AJ & John gloat about the Community Day vote results and give their $0.02 about the Niantic response to the open letter from the community. AJ is not happy about Mega Evolutions and John does nothing to calm him down other than cheering about stickers. There is plenty of Master League information between Kakuna's Corner and the Deep Dive, and plenty of time wasted with another edition of AJ's Alphabet. If you didn't have enough of Mega talk, you're in luck; the Speculation Station focuses on how they could be balanced in PvP.Current EventsPorygon and Charmander win the CD voteNiantic responds to the open letter from the communitySTICKERS for you, and for you and for you!Megas are here... and the community respondsMega evolution introductionMegas in RaidsSeptember events are announcedKakuna's Corner - Master LeagueDeep Dive - Master League and Premier CupAJ's Alphabet - G is for Get RektSpeculation Station - Megas in PvP#StadiumGivesBack is Supporting Campaign Zero & #8CantWait || Donate HereIntro/Outro Music - Orbits by Toni Leys @tonileys on Twitter || Credit: https://diversity.moeTransitions & Sound Effects by Epidemic Sound || https://www.epidemicsound.comSupport the Show on Patreon || www.patreon.com/GOStadiumJoin our Discord || https://invite.gg/gostadiumCheck out our Fellow Podcasters: Pokémon Professor NetworkOur PvP PodcastBattle Science PodcastThe Competitive EdgeHosts - AJPilot & JRHonda121Audio Editing by Ken Pescatore of LuredUpShow Art by Rambling Rabbit

On this episode of StadiumCast, AJ & John give their amateur take on the "State of the Game" as well as an open letter to Niantic from the community.  Matt from PvPoke is rudely interrupted during Kakuna's Corner and everyone gratuitously dumps on Butterfree throughout the segment. Somehow AJ gets away with another week without the damn alphabet segment. AJ brags about GO Stadium's meta cores graphic even though he had nothing to do with the creation and he gives a simpleton take on the top performing teams within the GBL UL Premier Cup. John shares some of his vision for the future of in person tournaments while AJ day dreams reminiscing about the good old days of PvP.Current EventsCD moves have been announcedState of the Game and an Open LetterKakuna's CornerCharizard with Dragon Breath - B+Porygon with Tri-Attack - CMuk with Fire Punch - DButterfree with Hurricane - FDebate panel tonight on GO Stadium Twitch!Teams of the Week - UL Premier CupGO Stadium Meta CoresCharizard, Lapras, VeunsaurJonkus - Magnezone, Gallade, VenusaurRyanSwag - Machamp, Gengar, SnorlaxPvPoke Battle AnalysisSpeculation Station - PvP after COVID-19#StadiumGivesBack is Supporting Campaign Zero & #8CantWait || Donate HereIntro/Outro Music - Orbits by Toni Leys @tonileys on Twitter || Credit: https://diversity.moeTransitions & Sound Effects by Epidemic Sound || https://www.epidemicsound.comSupport the Show on Patreon || www.patreon.com/GOStadiumJoin our Discord || https://invite.gg/gostadiumCheck out our Fellow Podcasters: Pokémon Professor NetworkOur PvP PodcastBattle Science PodcastThe Competitive EdgeHosts - AJPilot & JRHonda121Audio Editing by Ken Pescatore of LuredUpShow Art by Rambling Rabbit 

On this episode of StadiumCast, John surprises AJ by losing only  some of his matches in the Elite 4 Challenge and AJ brags about the size of his Magikarp. John does about 100 raids to get a shiny Deoxys that AJ encountered on the first attempt.  The guys are totally whelmed about the new Pokémon announced for Unova Week and a psychotic individual with a strangely familiar voice interrupts the segment for breaking news. AJ has fallen in love... with the new Ultra League Premier Cup meta and has an excellent surprise choice.  The letter of the day is E as the background and concept of Elite TMs are explained, which AJ is too afraid to use and John spends recklessly.  As is customary in the Stadium, the episode wraps up in the station as AJ & John argue about community day moves for which they have no say to begin with. Current EventsUnova Week is starting!

On this episode of StadiumCast, John turns 30! But is he going senile? Both AJ & John mock others' misfortune since trainers are more likely to get struck by lightning than to hatch a non-shiny Deino.  AJ actually shows emotion with his excitement about the upcoming Magikarp Community Day. The episode is packed with information as Matt from PvPoke gives us the scoop in Kakuna's Corner and AJ drones on endlessly about Gyarados and Abomasnow. ThoTechtical from the EU Emperors survives an interview from AJ and accepting his fate, AJ explains what "DPE" means during AJ's Alphabet.

On this episode of StadiumCast, the podcast takes a backseat to an important PSA regarding RamblingRabbit and his cardboard internet. After throwing RR under the bus, AJ & John are whelmed about Dragon Week and John is yet again team-less for #GOTeamUp. AJ goes on a long rant about the new season updates and John blackmails AJ into another edition of AJ's Alphabet. The episode winds down with some good old speculation about what happens after TL40, where AJ doubles down on his disgust for yucky eggs and John rambles about his ideas that don't make sense.Dragon Week is upon us#GOTeamUp 3 Deep Dive - Season 3 UpdatesPokeminers move infoAJ's Alphabet  - C is for CMPSpeculation Station - What happens after TL40?Dotesports articleNiantic video#StadiumGivesBack is Supporting Campaign Zero & #8CantWait || Donate HereIntro/Outro Music - Orbits by Toni Leys @tonileys on Twitter || Credit: https://diversity.moeTransitions & Sound Effects by Epidemic Sound || https://www.epidemicsound.comSupport the Show on Patreon || www.patreon.com/GOStadiumJoin our Discord || https://invite.gg/gostadiumCheck out our Fellow Podcasters: Pokémon Professor NetworkOur PvP PodcastBattle Science PodcastThe Competitive EdgeHosts - AJPilot & JRHonda121Audio Editing by Ken Pescatore of LuredUpShow Art by Rambling Rabbit

On this episode of StadiumCast, AJ slings mud at John for slacking off, and they both give their $0.02 on how #battlers should prepare for GO Fest this coming weekend. AJ tries to corrupt SpeediestChief2 during their interview, but the North American Silph Arena Champion keeps their cool.  AJ sneakily skips AJ's alphabet and the episode wraps up  with some speculation on the mysterious Day 2 of GO Fest.GO Fest 2020 PreparationHoard Alolan Marowak and Togetic!Trash those shiniesKeep your friends close, and your gifts closerInterview with SpeediestChief2Speculation Station - Day 2 of GO Fest#StadiumGivesBack is Supporting Campaign Zero & #8CantWait || Donate HereIntro/Outro Music - Orbits by Toni Leys @tonileys on Twitter || Credit: https://diversity.moeTransitions & Sound Effects by Epidemic Sound || https://www.epidemicsound.comSupport the Show on Patreon || www.patreon.com/GOStadiumJoin our Discord || https://invite.gg/gostadiumCheck out our Fellow Podcasters: Pokémon Professor NetworkOur PvP PodcastBattle Science PodcastThe Competitive EdgeHosts - AJPilot & JRHonda121Show Art by Rambling Rabbit

On this episode of StadiumCast, AJ & John vent about trying to catch up with their personal lives while covering the current events including a cool new Pokemon GO Fest Poster, July 19th Gastly Day, Remote Raid Invites, the Team GO Rocket Takeover and Silph Arena's upcoming Continental Championships.  Some dramatic controversy has taken over the community and the guys give their take on the situation.  Groudon and Metagross are subjected to deep dives within the Master League and Premier Cup and Coach Caleb Peng gives his take on those metas and what has been working for him at Rank 10. AJ begrudgingly explains the concept of baiting in PvP during AJ's Alphabet and the episode wraps up with some speculation about info found in a recent data mine. Current Events Gastly community dayGO Fest poster teaseTeam GO Rocket TakeoverSilph ArenaPremier Cup Tournament Phase 2 ContinentalsControversy!

On this episode of StadiumCast, AJ & John have mixed feelings about GBL's return and Niantic's recovery initiative. Some new Pokemon are trickling into the game like Galarian Farfetch'd and Victini while Pinsir's raid day is canceled almost as suddenly as it was announced. Matt from PvPoke is back for another edition of Kakuna's corner and he dives into possible trends within the Master League as it approaches. You'll hear our take on how spoofers might be able to get reintegrated to the community and AJ gives some background on the term Autorec during AJ's Alphabet.

On this episode of Stadium Cast, AJ & John  show how ungrateful they are for stickers and Latios&Latias returning to raids for the 163rd time. 7km eggs just got much better and Zekrom is just around the corner. AJ finally stops being lazy and makes a team for #GOTeamUp #3 and John sulks because nobody picked him. GO Stadium launches their brand new website as well as an exciting new format for the Ultra League: STASIS. It would not be a complete episode without some controversy either, as the exploit that stopped GBL is discussed. AJ  cannot stop rambling with both AJ's Alphabet and a Deep Dive into Obstagoon and Gyarados.
