We are back in the saddle and ready to ride! We are excited to be back to our weekly schedule and pumping out podcasts! Thanks to everyone for baring with us as Ken finished his move!

The motherload of info dropped this past week with Shared Skies being announced as the 15th Season of Pokémon GO. We have plenty to dig through as we have our June content update as well as details on the first few events of the season. We begin with a recap of the first event of the month, Stadium Sights. While we enjoyed this event, we weren’t able to capture a Shiny Emolga. Add another chase to our running list.

Save the dates have been released for this season’s Community Days, and we have Goomy and Cyndaquil on the schedule for June. While May saw a ton of XP events, it looks like June will be all about the Stardust. This month will absolutely keep us busy as we ramp up to GO Fest. Make sure you stay tuned for our GO Fest announcements coming soon!

Up next on the calendar is Slumbering Sands, which brings us new costume Pokémon and a new Shiny! Timed Research will be delivered thanks to the GO Plus+ which is reminiscent of the Sleeping Snorlax event from a year ago. We also have a $2 Timed Research, which we both agree is a fair price when you factor in the gameplay experience, items, and rewards. 

Looking ahead we have Scorching Steps, which while an Egg Event, seems to be making it a bit easier to deal with. There are a spread of chase Pokémon available during this event, including Shiny Larvesta which will show up in 2km, 5km, and 10km eggs, as well as Turtanator, which can be chased via Field Research. All in all, we are pretty hyped for this event, and think it will be a nice lead in to the return of Mega Rayquaza.

There were a few tidbits of miscellaneous news to cover including winning a personalized PokéStop at GO Fest: Madrid, the GBL Season update, and Trainer losing their account to a hacker. We knew comparisons would be made to FleeceKing and the Community won’t let us forget.

Mega Rayquaza is the big topic of the week as we discuss the ups and downs that come with an Elite Raid release. We are split on this one, but the Community is nearly in agreement that they are not in favor of M. Ray coming back as an Elite Raid Boss. Make sure you jump over to our Twitter and join the conversation. We would love to hear what you think about this situation!
