PGP! Ep 27 – “Pikachu is a Boy, Eh?”

As Charles and Pokémon Joe debate the finer points of Pokémon gender identities; Charles just wants to talk about Pikachu’s lipstick. The guys do their best to interpret the latest data mine which includes more product placement, Niantic serves up another heaping helping of server issues and eggs for Charles, and Here comes the money!!! Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money; Niantic now exclusively uses Shane McMahon’s entrance music. All of that incredible content, and of course YOUR feedback, emails, and comments!

New Patron 1: You’re always gonna have problems too many Pokémon in one place. Apparently the best thing to do is grind up your extra ‘mon into pieces of candy and pile it all together.

Pokémon Joe: Would someone mind telling us, who are you?

New Patron 2: And when you got your pieces of candy, you gotta get rid of them, because it’s no good leaving it in the deep freeze, unused, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to other Pokémon. You got to starve the Pokémon for a few days, then the sight of a candied Pokémon will look like thorns to a Snorlax. You gotta transfer the Pokémon, and have ‘em turned into candy the sake of the Pokémons’ sanity. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don’t want to take your ‘mon to a therapist, now do you? They will go through these candies like butter. You need at least sixteen Pokémon to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps their storage maxed out. They will go through 400 candies in about eight minutes. That means that a single Pokémon can consume three pieces of candied flesh every minute. Hence the expression; “as greedy as a Snorlax.”

Brian: … *helpless and stupefied*

Charles: Well, thank you for that. That’s a great weight off our minds. Now, if you wouldn’t mind telling us who you are, apart from someone who feeds Pokémon to other Pokémon of course?
