Welcome to the Pokémon GO Podcast! This week Brian is king of the hill as “Pokémon” Joe is left sweating the competition and Charles is left putting the FILTHY in ‘filthy casual.’ Thanks to the recent Water Festival Niantic is to blame for worldwide over-fishing, of digital waters, as well as rampant cavities due to an abundance of Magikarp candies. John Hanke throws around “65 million players” and the hosts want the data. With Blizzard’s courtroom triumph, does Niantic finally have the tools it needs to shutdown spoofers, scanners, and cheaters? A fellow trainer provides the community with a new tool for choosing attackers. The hosts delve into the sad reality of Shiny percentages. It’s better than the handhelds, but it still isn’t pretty. All of that incredible content, and of course YOUR feedback, emails, and comments!
This week Pokémon GO Podcast welcomes Zuh_char_ee and Orange and White Face Kitten to the community! Normally, I would do more. What am I supposed to do with that?! Seriously!

A little disappointed to hear this podcast so openly supporting cheating or are tracking apps no longer considered cheating just because it is delivered by twitter. Will still continue listening just a bit bummed.
Sorry – Brett. Brian here. Didn’t mean to disappoint you, man. When I initially saw these twitter accounts, it seemed like a grayer area of cheating – almost like the crowdsourced Silph Road maps. But seeing that they’re actually based on something we don’t condone as players, it’s something we won’t be talking about on any future episodes.
