Pokémon Podcast: Scarlet Begonias and Violet Evergarden

It is that time of year again where we find this podcast celebrating a nerd holiday that wraps February: Pokémon Day. EstoBro celebrates this show with the biggest nerds around with Izzy Takamono and Rob the Noob of the 4Nerds1Podcast with TV still trying to get a hotspot from his Arc Phone. The show begins with new hot video games that are out and how the nerd collective has way too much backlog to even purchase video games right now. The Gents start focusing on the topic by giving a full review of Pokémon Legends: Arceus...however because of how much these guys love talking, they bounce around all over the place (11:35). After a good month of gameplay, the Gents know how to recognize and point out the flaws that continue to harm Game Freak's final product. This also follows with the other demands that the Pokéfans have demanded over the course of the franchise, which to EstoBro's knowledge that the answer has been resolved for some time now (18:30). More of the argument leads to Izzy Tokomono educating the masses on where Pokémon has been ripping off Digimon, the other monster collector franchise (33:45), and nerds as a whole need to be more appreciative of this other major franchise and need to give it a chance if they have not already. After breaking down other elements that make a strong franchise after trading card collecting, merchandise, and anime; EstoBro's final resolution is that there needs to be a dedicated cornerstone of the Pokemon franchise that needs to grow up with the original fans (46:40). EstoBro brings up the attention of all the accolades Pokémon made during its 25th anniversary (65:35), while the Gents make a full tailored review of what games were released for the year with NEW Pokémon Snap, Pokémon Unite, and the Gen IV remakes of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. With those titles backing the year 2021, 2022 is off to a great start with Pokémon Legends: Arceus, the Gents finally make their first impression take on the Gen IX reveal of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet versions dropping by this holiday season (85:15). EstoBro celebrates the internet for being cordial for the review, which could only lead to optimism on what the future of the Pokémon franchise has to hold for fans. It was such a delight to hear the 4Nerds on podwaves once more, we hope we hear more from them on future shows in collaboration.
