This podcast discusses a recent leak about a new Pokémon game that is reportedly in development for the Nintendo Switch 2. The source of the leak is a well-known Pokémon leaker on X, Riddler Khu, who claims that a new Pokémon game is in development that is not part of Generation 10. This means that it is not the successor to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. The leak suggests that the game is likely a remake of a previous mainline Pokémon game. The most likely candidate for a remake is Pokémon Black and White, as these games are chronologically next in the remake line after the recent remakes of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The podcast may delve deeper into the details of the leak, the credibility of the source, and the potential release date of the game. The leaker indicates that the game will not be released in 2025, but may be released in 2026 or later. Furthermore, the podcast may speculate on the gameplay and new features the remake could include, as well as the potential impact of the Nintendo Switch 2 on the Pokémon franchise. It is important to emphasize that this information is based on rumors and speculation. Nintendo and Game Freak have not yet confirmed the rumors. The podcast should advise listeners to take this information with a grain of salt.

This podcast dives into the growing issue of scarcity in the Pokémon card world, particularly surrounding the release of the “Prismatic Evolutions” set. We discuss how local stores are dealing with extremely low inventory, while demand for this set is at an all-time high. You’ll hear from Ben DeGuire, owner of Player 1 Services, who shares insights into the root of this issue. We explore several factors that contribute to this scarcity, including:

● The increasing popularity of Pokémon, thanks in part to the Pokémon Pocket TCG app. ● The sought-after “Masterball Reverse Holos” in the “Prismatic Evolutions” set. ● The continued appeal of Eeveelutions to collectors. ● The influx of new stores wanting to sell Pokémon cards, increasing pressure on distribution. ● The role of scalpers buying up inventory from major retailers. The impact of this scarcity on fans and local stores is discussed in depth. We discuss the frustration of fans who can’t get their hands on cards and the disappointment of local stores who are forced to cancel pre-orders. We also look at the potential long-term implications for the Pokémon card hobby. Tune in to explore the complex dynamics of supply and demand in the world of Pokémon cards.
