Pokémon HOME got a release date, and then that release date got pulled the next day? We at least know what v3.0.0 of Pokémon HOME will have when it comes out. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet was supposed to have new Raids, but they also got pulled this weekend. Speaking of Pokémon SV, competitors in Korea and Japan ran into bugs resulting in unfair tournament results.

We found out the hatch rates for Larvesta and it's not... good. On top of that, Niantic sent a push notification that felt a bit insulting to players. It's been reported that Pokémon GO had a downfall in profits, but we go more in-depth about that. Pokémon Trading Card Game Live gets an official release date, but that means the sunset of Pokémon Trading Card Game Online is coming. Finally, we talk about t-shirts and anime. 00:00:20 - Introduction 00:04:40 - Larvesta Hatch Rates00:14:20 - Falling Prices00:28:30 - Break00:32:00 - PTCG Live Release Date00:42:00 - Pokémon Masters EX T-Shirts00:50:00 - Hisuian Snow01:02:00 - Post Credits  🌐 www.pkmncast.com👾 www.twitch.tv/pkmncast📸 www.instagram.com/pkmncast📝 www.reddit.com/r/supereffective🐦 www.twitter.com/pkmncast🎥 www.youtube.com/pkmncast📀 www.tiktok.com/@pkmncast💰 Support on PatreonAd this episode is from Aura Frames!

We know that Delphox, Chesnaught, and Rillaboom are the last 3 starters still left to come through 7-Star Raids in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Unsure if Game Freak is waiting for the release of these three before Pokémon HOME, but we talk about possible Tera types for these three coming. Niantic finally announced Pokémon GO Fest 2023, we talk about that and the remaining events for the lackluster Rising Heroes season.00:03:00 - Introduction 00:05:00 - Scarlet & Violet Raid Talk00:23:20 - Upcoming SV Events00:34:40 - Break00:37:00 - Interview00:50:30 - Break00:52:00 - Pokémon GO Fest 202301:21:30 - Rising Heroes Events01:39:00 - Post Credits  🌐 www.pkmncast.com👾 www.twitch.tv/pkmncast📸 www.instagram.com/pkmncast📝 www.reddit.com/r/supereffective🐦 www.twitter.com/pkmncast🎥 www.youtube.com/pkmncast📀 www.tiktok.com/@pkmncast💰 Support on PatreonAd this episode is from Aura Frames!

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet got updated to v1.3.0, but no performance updates were applied. We go over what did change and what didn't change. Pokémon HOME still doesn't have a date, just Spring for now, but we talk about how Hisui Pokémon would make the most sense after Regulation C is over. Speaking of VGC, the Global Challenge 3 got announced and starts very soon! Finally, we kick off the episode talking about how the Scarlet and Violet TCG sold out in Japan and how theft is happening in America. 00:01:30 - Introduction 00:03:40 - TCG Sold Out00:18:20 - Fusion Strike Card Theft00:36:10 - Break 00:39:40 - Global Challenge 300:48:20 - Patch Notes for v1.3.001:11:20 - New Pokémon, Still No Anime  01:35:30 - Post Credits  🌐 www.pkmncast.com👾 www.twitch.tv/pkmncast📸 www.instagram.com/pkmncast📝 www.reddit.com/r/supereffective🐦 www.twitter.com/pkmncast🎥 www.youtube.com/pkmncast📀 www.tiktok.com/@pkmncast💰 Support on PatreonAd this episode was brought to you by Honey!

We recap Decidueye Raids and our thoughts on the established formula so far. The Nintendo eShop is closing on the 3DS and the Wii U, meaning hundreds of games will be unaccessible going forward.
