This week,

We kick off with a catch-up on the Shadow Kyogre Raid Weekend and the just finishhed Delightful Days: Taken Over event — who had the best luck, and which features stood out (or sank)? Each host shares their highlights, frustrations, and best catches.

In The News, we dive into Niantic’s latest bombshell: GMax Battles can now host up to 100 trainers! Is this the future of large-scale Pokémon GO battles, or just a chaotic experiment? Plus, we discuss the sunny vibes of the brand-new Sunkissed Shores event, with thoughts on spawns, bonuses, and grind potential with the debut of Dondozo.

Then, it’s time for an honest conversation: Is Pokémon GO becoming TOO monetized? The hosts debate raid passes, paid tickets, event structure, and whether free-to-play players are being left behind.

Counter Bros return to break down Necrozma raids — with Mark, Milo, and Ian giving you the best counters, typing breakdown, weaknesses, and the all-important 100% IV CP checks to help you secure the perfect catch.

With a 60-second recap of Rookidee Community Day, before we round things off with your glittering submissions in #ShiniesOfTheWeek.

We’d like to say a massive thank you to all of our Patrons for your support, with credited Patrons from featured tiers below:
