POKÉMON LEGENDS – ARCEUS [Review]: Childhood Evolved.

I can still remember playing my first Pokémon game, 1999's Pokémon Red Version. All of my friends were stuck on it. I had to wait until nearly a year after release when my best friend's dad bought me a GameBoy Color and the game for Christmas. Since then, I’ve owned every main series Pokémon game …

POKEMON SWORD AND SHIELD [Review]: Catch Mé If You Can.

I finally get it. Despite being an ultra weeb with an apartment drowning in Naruto, Dragon Ball, Gundam and Boku No Hero anime decor, I never truly understood the craze over Pokémon. Sure, Pikachu is arguably cuter than Baby Yoda and most of the bizarre lil' animal and dino variants are easy on the eyes, …

POKEMON – MEWTWO STRIKES BACK EVOLUTION [AX 2019 Movie Review]: #MeToo.

Thanks to a brand new 3DCG adaptation of Mewtwo Strikes Back (adding an "Evolution" to the title), there are now 22 Pokémon anime flicks-- and this visual remaster of the first one is also my.. first one.

POKÉMON – DETECTIVE PIKACHU [4DX Review]: Pika Pika!

When it comes to Pokémon, I am completely biased. I've owned all the games, watched the first 10 movies, watched the first 10 seasons of the show as they aired, and --yes-- I even owned the Holographic Charizard Pokémon card. This movie hit me right in my childhood. In Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, it was nonetheless …

E3ODUS [E3 2018 Preview]: Pokémon Let’s Go! Pikachu / Eevee.

POKEMON LET'S GO! PIKACHU / EEVEE VERSION (Game Freak/Nintendo - Switch - November 16) - When I first heard of the upcoming Pokémon Switch game and that it wasn't a "full-fledged" entry into the series, I was already skeptical and dreading the announcement. Dragging my feet not unlike a kid being taken to Home Depot …
