FishOnAHeaterHOST
First of all, Posey May has completed the, I think that's the Platinum, yeah, Platinum Medal of, the Platinum Hero Medal.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
So defeating 2,000 Team Go Rocket members.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
That'll show them.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
And a very funny comment of like, while my friends do park run, I've hampered Team Go Rocket's organized crimes.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
Very good, Posey.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
Shark is back on the leaderboards.
DPhiE250HOST
Yes.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
"Initially, Minior will only be able to change forms when battling Team GO Rocket team leaders or in the GO Battle League." Ini- [laughs] initially.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
Like, when else do you want it to transform?
DPhiE250HOST
I guess in, like, um, friendly battles.
MarkHOST
And yeah, Mineo will only be able to change forms while battling.
MarkHOST
Team Go Rocket team leaders are in the Go Baguettes League.
MarkHOST
We've got Baguettes Battle League.
MarkHOST
But Mineo will not be eligible for the 2027 Latin American International Championships because apparently it's just amazing and it'll break all the mechanics in the lead up to it.
Luis PalaciosHOST
That's going to be interesting to use in PvP, I can tell you that much.
Luis PalaciosHOST
I don't know if this is going to be a PvP Pokemon regardless, until it comes out into the game.
Luis PalaciosHOST
Initially, Minion will only be able to change forms when battling Team GO Rockets team leaders or in GO Battle League.
Luis PalaciosHOST
And then, of course, Minion will not be eligible for the 2027 Latin America International Championship, which is actually crazy that they put that for almost another year's release.
Luis PalaciosHOST
And then, Explore by Starlight.
Ken PescatoreHOST
Uh, but anyway, all right, we got plenty to talk about on today's show.
Ken PescatoreHOST
Uh, the Harvest Festival Takeover just wrapped up, and, uh, I can't quite put my finger on why battling Team GO Rocket felt so good, and it probably had something to do with us being, uh, short on balloons, and then it felt so great to be flooded with balloons.
Ken PescatoreHOST
And now, the withdrawals once again set in [laughs] because the balloons are back to being once a day.
Ken PescatoreHOST
Uh, City Safari Boston has been rescheduled, and, uh, it's mostly a global event, and, uh, that's pretty interesting because, uh, big shock, some trainers are pretty mad about the situation, so we'll talk about it.
Ken PescatoreHOST
But let me tell you, man, the, the, the Harvest Festival was awesome.
Ken PescatoreHOST
Applin was awesome.
Ken PescatoreHOST
And combining that with the Team GO Rocket takeover was absolutely phenomenal.
Ken PescatoreHOST
This was an incredible week of gameplay for a multitude of reasons.
ChrisHOST
While its core is exposed, Minior has higher attack and lower defense.
ChrisHOST
Initially, Minior will only be able to change forms when battling in Team Go Rocket, Team Leaders, or in the Pokemon Go League.
ChrisHOST
And then lastly, explore by starlight from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. local time every day during Minior showers.
ChrisHOST
The in-game sky will be lit up by shooting stars.
40 MINS LATER
KyleHOST
You got two rocket encounters from it.
ChrisHOST
And it was really cool.
ChrisHOST
The problem is, is that any of the likenesses that are remotely close or sorry, not even remotely close because Team Go Rocket is fine.
ChrisHOST
But any of the likenesses of those characters showing up requires a lot of licensing.
DPhiE250HOST
Wimpod, Fomantist, and Sandygast.
DPhiE250HOST
as well as three new Pokemon and Rocket leaders.
DPhiE250HOST
We've got Cliff with Cubone, Sierra with Pancham, and Arlo with Alolan Grimer.
DPhiE250HOST
We've got a couple different spawns coming in because it was taken over by Go Rocket, but you still have all of those regular Harvest Festival spawns, like your Small Libs, your Applins, Fungus, Roomish.
DPhiE250HOST
Get that Stardust.
FishOnAHeaterHOST
Okay, so I had a feeling Shadow Legendary, Shadow Zekrom in particular, I felt like that might have some sort of play in Master League, so I looked it up.
Ken PescatoreHOST
But uh, we do have, um, Cat- uh, Choose Your Own Path this, this week, you know, and, and I, I do want to say something about, about this.
Ken PescatoreHOST
So now that the, the Team Rocket, Team Go Rocket balloon k- thing has kinda calmed down, and I still see some, some people talking about it, you know.
Ken PescatoreHOST
Like, "I don't turn the game on at noon or 6:00 PM at all anymore.
Ken PescatoreHOST
I just meh, read the newspaper." I don't know, whatever they're doing, you know? But for the most part-
Ken PescatoreHOST
There's...
Ken PescatoreHOST
I- it, they cut it down, no eggs or anything like that.
Ken PescatoreHOST
But I chose Team Go Rocket, which gives you double components from grunts.
Ken PescatoreHOST
And let me tell you- I absolutely did more leaders this week than I had previously when there was four balloons coming down.
Brandon LongsideHOST
Tier 2, at rank 10 I mean, Marcy Laurel is activated during the event will last up to 1 hour.
Brandon LongsideHOST
Tier 3, at rank 20, you get more starters from defeating Team Go Rocket, Grunts, and Needles.
Brandon LongsideHOST
Apples will also appear when Marcy Laurel is activated and it can have one of the three apples.
Brandon LongsideHOST
So when the Marcy Law is activated during this event, apples are more likely to appear.
JayHOST
And you can encounter it if your luck is good.
JayHOST
The event bonus is going to be increased chance to get Shiny Slugma.
JayHOST
Team Go Rocket will appear more frequently at stops and balloons.
JayHOST
You can tm away frustration from your shadow pokemon.
KyleHOST
It's just, it's been there too long.
ChrisHOST
We ne- we need, we need other teams besides Go Rocket.
KyleHOST
Yeah.
ChrisHOST
We need Team Go Plasma and Team Go Star and Team Go...
