Pokémon is just cool, plain and simple. Pokémon doing a crossover with your favorite anime is infinitely cooler. In this episode we're doing just that, again! This time we're imagining a new Pokémon region where the gym leaders are characters from various other anime. Assigning them each a team of Pokémon to accompany them in their newfound profession.

Which anime character would you like to see in the Pokémon universe?

After 15 years, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are being revisited on the Nintendo Switch. Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl will take us back to the Sinnoh region, the twist is that these games are not being made by Game Freak. Game Freak instead is working on a game that takes place before the events in Diamond/Pearl called Pokémon Legends: Arceus. This game will have trainers try to build the very first Poké Dex with seamless battles and an action-RPG system in place. 

Pokémon Snap gets a brand new trailer. We talk about the Kanto Tour in Pokémon GO. Leon comes to Pokémon Masters and Café Mix got mentioned at the Pokémon Presents.
