Pokésports: A Competitive Pokémon Podcast

We're proud to be the internet's newest Competitive Pokémon Podcast. Trophy Garden walked so we could run and all that. We welcome our friends to the podcasting space! In honor of that, we'll discuss Wigglett, rant about Dodrio scoring, and talk about your suggestions for new Unite mons!

Needless to say, there's a ton of source material in the Pokémon world for Unite to create Pokémon from, and your answers showed that. More and more new Pokémon are being added to Unite, and with good reason - the multitude of ways to use Pokémon has already been established, and MOBAs are already far and away proven in their concept.  Kevin and Mike discuss what Pokémon would be cool to see!...

Dodrio has dropped in Unite, and it's a speedy little boi! Mike talks about his idea that Movement Speed is the most important thing in any MOBA. Make sure you check out our Patreon for the secret before-the-video chat we had!

Clefable is coming to Unite and...it feels a little unfinished. We also discuss the Spikemuth Cup format and the difficulty pivot that it brings.

Pokémon Unite is a different game. The biggest patch the game has ever seen has just dropped, and Mike has been playing the ever loving stuffing out of it. In this, you can hear his thoughts, his explanation of what's going on, and how this has improved or detracted from the game. Kevin's got his predictions for how that will shape things out, and they're already pretty darn close. This episode wa...

There are soon to be over 1000 Pokémon for Unite to choose from, and they chose Dodrio. Someone out there is really happy about this. Make sure you check out our Patreon for info on our Series 13 Tournament! The "Leeg" is back, baby!

It's time! The grand Pokémon Festival has come and gone. Pokémon Unite, Pokémon Sword and Shield, the Pokémon Trading Card Game, Pokémon Go, and Pokken Tournament all put their stages up to show who was the best and brightest at the game. Not only that, but we received our next tidbit of information for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. We talk about all of it in this episode.

We're talking about the upcoming Pokémon World Championships. There was a wonderful panel involving some of Pokémon's biggest names, and Pokesports is here to give their opinion on it. Also, Tyranitar has finally dropped on Pokémon Unite. Listen to what Kevin and Mike think about this nightmare. Check out Pokesports.org to see everything we've got going on!

Scarlet and Violet information has dropped! We finally learn about Terastalization. More importantly though, we have Paldean Wooper & Buzzwole to talk about. How do they fit into the conversation? Find out inside! We're also joined by Bryce Young! Go check him out on YouTube ! Check out Pokesports.org to see everything we've got going on!

What a strange world we live in. We've been doing nothing but talk about the possibility of Mythical Pokemon in VGC for the longest time - we even started a series on it. Now, lo and behold, TPCi has slapped Mythicals into VGC for the first time ever! Is it gamechanging? Is it game breaking? Does it not really matter? Do the fact that you can now bring 6 restricted Pokémon make things even tougher...

Words are hard when you've been speaking for your whole life. Mike & Kevin chat Unite Emblems, Jump! Magikarp, and Mythics in VGC. Check it out! Check out Pokesports.org to see everything we've got going on! Also make sure to check out this week's Mythical Smackdown to catch Marshadow vs Magearna in VGC!

We've got so much to do! If we don't get it all done in time, how are we ever going to make it to Kevin's party?! Seriously though, Happy Birthday to Kevin. Mike decides to take over the podcast and commit the entire time to Pokémon Party games! Do Kevin a favor and check out Pokesports.org to see everything we've got going on! Also make sure to check out this week's Mythical Smackdown to catch Me...

Jump, Magikarp! The newest craze hitting our Pokemon world, is coming for your best meta picks. I'd love to see one of us get the dub on that. AND, of course, you can check us out at Pokesports.org !

Sierra's history with Pokémon is as extensive as it gets! From TCG to VGC to Unite to the rest of Esports, Sierra is an amazing new addition to the competitive scene. In this episode, we discuss her journey, dealing with imposter syndrome, and what really goes on behind the casters desk. We also reveal a new game on the podcast! It's a fun time. You can check Sierra out on Twitter , or watch her c...

It's time for North America's biggest Pokémon tournament, NAIC2022! As is our new tradition, we're in-person in Ohio, playing yet another new game we've made up. Before that, we give a full breakdown of NAIC, talking about our runs, the general vibe of the place, and of course about the many people we met along the way. If you were one of the people we saw at NAIC, make sure you keep in touch! We...

Aaron Zheng is at it again with a massively quotable phrase. Mike & Kevin, never one to back down from a meme, are here to celebrate that. We're looking forward to seeing you at NAIC if you're going! Make sure you say hi. We love saying hi! Check out pokesports.org for all kinds of fun stuff!

We're in the heat of competitive VGC season, so we're really in our element on this episode.  Also, Delphox leaps into Unite, and it does a LOT of fire damage. Check out our website at https://www.pokesports.org!

Pawmi, Smoliv & Lechonk have been revealed, and they're about as deadly as they are cute. I for one hope they all evolve, and that they all get jetpacks and LED eyes.

Re-uploading to fix an issue with displaying on Spotify Unite has a new mode. Ever wanted to run around as Zapdos and see what it's like to be the final win condition? Now you can! There were TONS of VGC events going on over the past 2 weeks. Some of them had teams you'd expect, and some of them not so much. Come check out those teams with us!

Pokesports is IN-PERSON for this episode! We hit up the Brooklyn Podcasting Studio and chat previous series, our time in Jersey, and of course, the whole reason we were there: The Secaucus Regional Challenge! Come along.

Espeon is now available to play in Pokemon Unite! It's honestly pretty okay - we'll have a deeper dive on our experience in the next episode, but we give a full rundown on things to expect with this Pokemon, as well as its moves and uses. We're also chatting about the Victory Road VGC May Tournament. Kevin participated! How well he did...we'll see!

Regionals in full swing, Aeos Cup ready to go, and dreaming about Secaucus! This episode's got it all. We've even got a new name for our Pokemon Cry-guessing game! Welcome to Fake Tears!

I swear we talk about other things in this episode, but oh my Arceus has Pokeclicker ever taken over my life. We're speaking about regionals, VGC stats, and SO much else!

Did you really think we'd name this episode "Pokémon is an Onion"? No, but there certainly are layers. Lots to go over today. EUIC, Kevin's streaming woes, NAIC, Toronto VGC, and so much more. Big thanks to Skottymon for putting together the Azumaril breakdown. Stay tuned for the next one!

Did you book your ticket for Secaucus Regionals? If not, you're not the only one. It was a bit of a hot-button issue this week for people who tried to get tickets not 10 minutes into registration being open. Also, this may or may not be the last time we talk about Azumaril.
