Gotta catch the majority of 'em!


Welcome to episode 3 of The Talking Place! Joining me today is Chase, from the podcast Learned from Gaming. As well as one of the original Future Monkeys and your local Home Depot employee, Vos! 


This week's show is all about Pokémon! We get into a lot of various discussions regarding the little monsters, ranging from back when Chase and Vos started in Gen 1, all the way to Sword and Shield. We get into the importance of shiny hunting, how dangerous the Pokémon black market it, and more! We even take a deep dive into all the negative backlash against Game Freak surrounding Sword and Shield. Hint hint, we're totally in the #ThankYouGameFreak camp. 


SO IF YOU'RE AFRAID OF SPOILERS -- listen to the warning that we're about to get into it, then jump to 01:34:15


All in all, I feel like it was a great episode! Hopefully in a few weeks Chase and Vos will join me for a follow up on Sword and Shield. 


I hope you enjoy the third episode of The Talking Place!
