Derik and Ceci are BACK! It's been a long time listeners, and as much as you missed us, I promise we missed recording for you even more.

It's Derik and Ceci, together again! This week, we take a break from reporting on our trainers in Hoenn and take advantage of Derik and Ceci being in the same city (for once) to discuss impressions of Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Derik is about 5 hours into the game, while Ceci is (at time of recording) 96:59 hours in. We hope you enjoy this episode as we discuss our thoughts on mechanics, mild criticisms, where we think the franchise will go from here, implications for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and somehow, a lot about Elden Ring.

New year, new season, same Derik & Ceci. In the season 3 premier, we meet Edna and Q-Jus, the new trainers that Derik and Ceci will be following through Hoenn.

Today, Derik and Ceci are joined by some of their closest friends to see who really knows the most about Pokemon. Fair warning, the audio in this episode is not as crisp as usual, and there is a bit of an echo at points, but we think it adds to the charm and atmosphere of the table :) Enjoy!

Bonus-filled December continues with Derik and Ceci spending an hour arguing about how to pronounce Pokemon names - no, really, that's all this is. Buckle up and prepare to be offended by how (at least) one of us pronounces Pokemon names, and please do angry Tweet at us about everything we got wrong. Special thanks to listeners Leslie and Matt for giving us this idea and putting together the list of controversial Pokemon names for us to debate.

Was Ceci a little drunk editing this episode? Maybe. All we know is it's the Season 2 finale! Time to find out how Astrid and Paul Wall fare on the final lead up to the Indigo Plateau and their challenge to the Elite Four. Derik and Ceci argue over whose idea it was to have the Victory Road badge guard check all badges at once (and in post-production magic, we have the Season 1 evidence to prove once and for all who it was). Astrid faces a Dark type trainer who, for the first time this season, has a direct advantage to her Psychic type Pokemon. Paul Wall meets his (second) idol, Koga. Our hosts finally catch up with Professor Oak and his OTHER cohost, Mary (blegh). Field Correspondent Gabby brings us all the insight on Koga's promotion to the Elite Four in this week's interview.

Mt. Mortar is not kind to Professor Oak or Derik and Paul Wall, as it turns out.

What a whirlwind this episode is!

Ceci breaks down the illogical structure of the Olivine City Lighthouse and its clear safety violations. Paul Wall nearly gets swept away by a whirlpool en route to Cianwood Island to pick up prescription medication for Ampharos's asthma. Derik doesn't know that Shuckle is a bug-type Pokemon. Astrid sneaks off to see the Pokemon Seer. Our trainers battle Chuck for their fifth gym badge at the Cianwood Gym, and Field Correspondent Gabby interviews the very legitimate owner of the very legitimate Cianwood City "Pharmacy."

Apparently Professor Oak would prefer to work on his rhythm than his radio show, so Derik and Ceci keep up with Astrid and Paul Wall in Ecruteak City and beyond. We run into Bill, who has evolved his scientific research interests since we last saw him in Kanto. Ceci appreciates the genuineness of Midwestern nice, while Derik is suspicious. Mysticalman Eusine gives Derik a run for his money when it comes to long-winded rants.

Professor Oak is indisposed at the National Park, so Derik and Ceci lead our trainers through our hometown of Goldenrod City. Derik is snarky about all the "touristy" sites, Astrid (unsurprisingly) bonds with the Pokemon Friendship Rater, Ceci tries to impress the trainers with a tour of the Goldenrod Radio Tower and is foiled by a mysterious external security force, and Paul Wall is really only interested in the Bug-Catching Contest beyond the city.

With Professor Oak busy studying Kurt's...ball...smithing, Derik and Ceci follow Paul Wall and Astrid down Slowpoke Well and through the Ilex Forest in an episode that promises to be somehow even more chaotic than most. Both of our trainers leave Kurt to fend for himself after hurting his back in Slowpoke Well, taking their sweet time to catch some new Pokemon and train them up to fighting levels while Derik and Ceci debate the proper pronunciation of the word "controversy." Beyond Ilex Forest, Astrid and Paul Wall have an unnecessary encounter with a police officer and are gifted yet ANOTHER Pokemon Egg by the Daycare Couple. Our trainers battle Bugsy at the Azalea Town Gym for their second gym badge as Derik and Ceci wax poetic about their admiration of this iconic gym leader.
