Lured Up Podcast 343Live Streamed on - 4/16/25Publish Date - 4/18/25It has been a week of ups and downs in the Pokémon GO Community, as major news has come out of the Wayfarer camp. With only 2 days notice, Niantic Spatial has officially spun off, and Ingress is no longer connected to the Wayfarer system. This could have a huge impact on the future of the Pokémon GO gameboard, as PGO Trainers have relied on Ingress Agents to be the watchdogs of the map for years. Only time will tell how this will turn out.We start off with a recap of the last week of gameplay including Spring Into Spring, Sparring Partners Raid Day, and the launch of the Horizons Event. Combinations of mechanics, old and new Pokémon, and new Shinies have given us plenty to engage with. Surprisingly, Sparring Parters Raid Day went over well with many Trainers tracking down Mega Heracross, while the egg locked Tinkatink has those on the single incubator grind sweating a bit.Niantic has done a great job with giving us advanced notice on events, as GMAX Snorlax, DMAX Entei, Sweet Discoveries, Vanillite Community Day and Mega Kangaskhan Raid Day are coming our way fast. Plenty of gameplay, plenty of tickets. The $2 ticket doesn't seem all that bad on its own, but when there are 4-6, $2 tickets a month, things really start to add up. With Max Battle and Raid Day tickets coming in at $5 a ticket, our wallets continue to be opened week after week.With all that is going on with Wayfarer, we wonder if some Trainers will enjoy the bliss of not really being aware of the news, while others will take a proactive approach to keeping the map updated and accurate. Hopefully we see a strong group of PGO Wayfinders step up in order to compensate for the loss of Ingress players, especially in the reviewing process, as things with the PGO map may come to a screeching halt without them.

Send us a textIn the latest episode of the Spectator Mode Podcast, the crew kicked things off by discussing the games they've been playing and the shows they've been watching. The crew then dove into their initial impressions of the highly anticipated Capcom Fighting Collection 2, exploring its gameplay mechanics and features, moving on to a lively debate about Forza Horizon 5 heading to the PS5 and how suddenly it's a great game. Of course, we didn't shy away from major headlines, covering Sony's PS5 price hike in several regions and speculating on the cost of the rumored Nintendo Switch 2 in North America. Other topics included Shuhei Yoshida's remarks about the Switch 2, rumors of an "Oblivion" remake, and news from the INDIE Live Expo. On a more somber note, they reflected on Niantic's announcement of layoffs and the broader impact on the industry. #playstation5 #oblivion #switch2 #shuheiyoshida #indieliveexpo #gamingpodcast #videogamesThat and more on Spectator Mode Podcast episode 185!

Lured Up Podcast 342: Last Week, This Week, Next WeekLive Streamed on - 4/2/2025We are working out an updated format to the show this week, starting off with our news segment called, “Last Week, This Week, Next Week”, where we recap the last week of gameplay, discuss the current events, and prep for what's to come. The event sand news cycle can be overwhelming in Pokémon GO, so while we will always touch on news as it is released, we will be closing our timeline of coverage to make each episode a bit more relevant to the week of its release.We recap our experiences with the Bug Out and Fuzzy Buddy Research Day, as well as both of our lack of Shinies from the makeup Catch Mastery research. One thing that has been keeping the momentum of the game moving along nicely is the consistent release of new Pokémon, forms, or Shinies. It seemed like we had a few months of limited new releases, so it is nice to see Might & Mastery coming through with some fresh content.The big topic of the week is a look into Niantic's current monetization strategy, with the release of the Powered Up Ticket, GO Pass, and Reward Road this month. Could this change the spending habits of Trainers? We discuss whether or not this may make you spend more or less, and if having free to play options is enough to keep the FOMO away. In the end, our gameplay experience may improve because of it, but we may have to pay the price of admission.Bug OutFuzzy BuddyStunning StylesTyrogue Hatch DaySpring Into SpringMega AudinoGMAX SnorlaxPower Up TicketGO PassGO Pass RewardsReward RoadLuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639 Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork HostsKen PescatoreAdam TuttleWriter and ProducerKen PescatoreExecutive Producer XanderShow music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾http://instagram.com/GameChopshttp://twitter.com/GameChopshttp://soundcloud.com/GameChopshttp://facebook.com/GameChopshttp://youtube.com/GameChopshttp://www.gamechops.comIntro MusicLake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix) TetracaseGameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/https://soundcloud.com/tetracase https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0Break MusicNational ParkMikel & GameChopsGameChops - Poké & Chillhttp://smarturl.it/pokechillhttps://twitter.com/mikel_beatsOutro MusicVast Poni CanyonCG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix)GameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/ http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beatshttps://soundcloud.com/glitchxcityPokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2025 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.

Lured Up Podcast 341We haven't dug into the news in a few weeks so on this episode we build out the calendar into April and prep for some pretty great event lineups. The game has really hit a stride in providing event and gameplay loops across their different mechanics. The April calendar is as packed as any previous month we have seen, and the onslaught of events doesn't seem to be slowing down at all.With GO Fest right around the corner, we might be expecting the calm before the storm, but if April is any indication of the event pacing, we may not see a break in the action at all. A plethora of different events closed out March and will welcome us into April. With Sizzlepede releasing with the Bug Out and both Mega Audino and GMAX Snorlax on the horizon, we are getting plenty of debuts to serve as the carrot at the end of the stick.Circling back on the Niantic/Scopely conversation, we attended another meeting with Niantic to ask more questions about the deal. With every answer driving home the fact that things will be business as usual, we will continue to be cautiously optimistic until there is reason to think differently.Festival of Colors: https://bit.ly/LU340Colors Catch Mastery: https://bit.ly/LU340CatchMastery DMAX Raikou: https://bit.ly/LU340Raikou Deep Depths: https://bit.ly/LU340DeepDepthsMega Absol: https://bit.ly/LU341MegaAbsol Bug Out: https://bit.ly/LU341BugOut Fuzzy Buddy: https://bit.ly/LU341FuzzyBuddy Stunning Styles: https://bit.ly/LU341StunningStyles Mega Audino: https://bit.ly/LU341MegaAudino GMAX Snorlax: https://bit.ly/LU341GMAXSnorlax Layoffs: https://bit.ly/LU341LayoffsTrainer Tips: https://bit.ly/LU341TrainerTips LuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639 Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork HostsKen PescatoreAdam TuttleWriter and ProducerKen PescatoreExecutive Producer XanderShow music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾http://instagram.com/GameChopshttp://twitter.com/GameChopshttp://soundcloud.com/GameChopshttp://facebook.com/GameChopshttp://youtube.com/GameChopshttp://www.gamechops.comIntro MusicLake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix) TetracaseGameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/https://soundcloud.com/tetracase https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0Break MusicNational ParkMikel & GameChopsGameChops - Poké & Chillhttp://smarturl.it/pokechillhttps://twitter.com/mikel_beatsOutro MusicVast Poni CanyonCG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix)GameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/ http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beatshttps://soundcloud.com/glitchxcityPokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2025 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.Lured Up and the Pokémon Professor Network are not affiliated with Niantic Inc., The Pokémon Company, Game Freak or Nintendo.#pokemon #pokemongo #podcast

In this episode of the Other Side of the Firewall podcast, the hosts discuss the recent acquisition of Pokemon Go, by Saudi Arabia. They delve into the implications of this acquisition on data privacy, the selective outrage surrounding data ownership, and the broader concerns regarding global data privacy laws. The conversation highlights the hypocrisy in how different countries and companies are treated regarding data privacy and the potential risks associated with foreign ownership of sensitive data.

Lured Up Podcast 340: Meeting With NianticLive Streamed on - 3/15/25Publish Date - 3/19/25This was quite the week in Pokémon GO. With the Community reeling from the news of the sale to Scopely. The amount of uncertainty and emotion is at an all time high. With feelings spanning the entire spectrum of thought, some Trainers remain concerned with cautious optimism, while others think this will spell out the demise of Pokémon GO as we know it. While our perspective is definitely to be optimistic while calling it like we see it, we had some of our concerns and doubts eased a bit after meeting with Niantic for a Q&A session to discuss the transition.I was able to meet with Michael Steranka the Senior Product Director on Pokémon GO and Mark Van Lommel, Niantic's Director of Communications, Games and Influencer Relations. Our 30 minute Zoom call was a no-nonsense information fest, where a small group of Pokémon GO creators from around the world could communicate directly with Niantic to have their questions answered.On this episode we will go through in detail some of the key questions that were asked, and Niantic's detailed and confidence inspired responses. Time will absolutely tell what the future holds for Pokémon GO, but for now we were able to address some of the topics that matter most to Trainers. From Niantic's core values of exercise, exploration and real world social interaction to the reputation that Scopely games have over their monetization practices, Niantic was fully transparent and didn't shy away from answering every question. By the time episode 341 drops, we will have a second meeting with Niantic, where we hope to have even more questions answered!

One of the most successful mobile game developers finds a new overlord. Why do we even play games. A fake museum inducts some new members and Sony had it's big day since the last time we were together. http://www.joystickandmouse.com http://shop.joystickandmouse.com Show Notes: Niantic, the company that brought us Ingress and Pokemon Go hasn't faired so well with their follow up offerings. Harry Potter was an absolute flop and the few other games trying to recapture that wanderer magic have fallen flat. As such, Niantic is being sold and here are all the details. https://www.nextpit.com/pokemon-go-sale-niantic#:~:text=Niantic%20Games%20go%20to%20Saudi,the%20development%20of%20mobile%20games. Why do we play games? It's a fairly inocuous question that the answer is probably filled with a lot of nuance. Well a research company posed exactly that question and while simplistic, their answer opens up the discussion of why we do this at all. https://www.midiaresearch.com/blog/why-do-gamers-play-games-half-say-mainly-to-relax-but-things-are-different-for-the-other-half The Strong National Museum of Play has announced their annual candidates for induction into the World Video Game Hall of Fame. I agree, who is that but it does bring up the concept of a hall of fame for video games and what games should be in it. Let's see if our list matches theirs. https://www.pcgamer.com/games/should-age-of-empires-and-quake-be-in-the-world-video-game-hall-of-fame-you-can-vote-for-them-to-be-inducted-this-year/ https://www.museumofplay.org/exhibits/world-video-game-hall-of-fame/finalists/ Sony's first big PlayStation State of Play for the year kicked off last night, bringing with it a host of announcements, both big and small, from first-party developers and third-party publishers. The stream lasted for a little over 40 minutes, and revealed new titles, remasters, and release dates for previously announced games. So let's take a look at all that was put on display for us. https://www.newsweek.com/entertainment/video-games/everything-announced-february-playstation-state-play-2030528 https://blog.playstation.com/2025/02/27/a-great-new-price-for-playstation-vr2/
Send us a textThis week,We cover all the latest Pokémon GO updates, including GO Fest 2025, the Deep Depths Event, and the return of Totodile Community Day Classic!
This week on the pod, things are getting wild—because nothing screams "totally ethical government" like a Tesla dealership popping up on the White House lawn! Yep, Trump casually rolled up to his new South Lawn Tesla dealership—complete with a free, live-streamed commercial on Musk's X platform. Ethics, schmethics! And hey, nothing screams "I'm totally into electric vehicles now" like last year's EV-hating candidate sitting in a Cybertruck and shouting out Elon Musk's patriotic greatness. Seems legit.Speaking of questionable decisions, Casey Anthony's back—again—because who wouldn't trust parenting advice from someone with her…unique qualifications? Casey's now on TikTok, claiming she's here to advocate for Caylee and give legal advice. Definitely sounds promising, right? Her attorney called it out perfectly: it's not about redemption; it's about clicks, controversy, and a chance to remind us all (again) how tragic her past is. Shocker.Finally, because the mobile gaming world just wasn't complete, Scopely now owns Pokémon Go. Yep, that Scopely—the folks famous for games like "Yahtzee with Buddies." Niantic handed over their golden goose, along with Monster Hunter Now and Pikmin Bloom. So get ready for your augmented-reality addiction to hit new heights—or new monetization nightmares. Probably both.This week's lineup has it all: ethical gymnastics at the White House, Casey Anthony's latest attempt at relevancy, and the corporate takeover of your childhood nostalgia.

Big tech companies are forever making promises about the future. And you might (or might not) be surprised how often they don't come true. On this episode, Nilay and David start by discussing the good and bad of Apple's new iPads and Macs, before diving into the supposedly AI-powered, all-powerful Siri that is delayed indefinitely. Maybe this whole "AI will fix everything" plan wasn't such a good one. After that, The Verge's Andy Hawkins joins to discuss what's going on with Tesla: why sales are down, how the perception of the company has shifted as Elon Musk's job description has changed, and how it happened that President Trump did a Tesla sales pitch on the White House lawn. Everything's computer, you know? Finally, in the lighting round, the hosts discuss Brendan Carr's ongoing shenanigans, Jay Graber's sartorial burns, the future of Pokemon Go, and much more.

Today's show: Europe wants to keep its founders from fleeing, AI is growing at breakneck speed, and Nick Denton is back with a spicy Twitter storm—so we had to talk about it. Jason, Alex, and Lon break down Project Europe, a new $10M fund aimed at stopping the European startup brain drain. Plus, Anthropic's revenue just jumped 40% in a single quarter, and we debate what that means for AI's future. Meanwhile, China's EV makers are coming for Tesla, Saudi Arabia is building a gaming empire with a $3.5B Pokémon GO buyout, and we ask the big question: Should X and XAI just merge? Since XAI gets real-time data from X, it's got a major advantage—so what's stopping them from becoming one?*Timestamps:(0:00) Alex, Jason and Lon kick off the show!(1:29) Recap of Jason's appearance on Glenn Beck's show and advice to MBA students(4:21) The value of an MBA vs. starting a company(8:14) Nick Denton on Musk, Trump, and investment thesis(9:47 Squarespace.
