Pokemon Announcement Coming Soon

Pokemon will have its first Jump Festa showing this year, and it looks like we can expect some sort of announcement. The latest issue of Jump has a blurb for the upcoming event which says "Pokemon makes first appearance at JF!! Surprising information on the show floor?" The blurb also teases that a "big surprise" awaits in the Pokemon booth.

This year's Jump Festa will be held on December 17th and 18th at Makuhari Messe.

Shirt Contest

Remember on the podcast where we talked about having one of you guys design a shirt? Well... today is that day. You will be able to submit your designs to leftovers@me.com. We will take all the designs and and start the voting on Oct 31st! Voting will go for about a week and then the winner will have their shirt made. The winner will get 2 free shirts and a bundle package from us. Others will be able to pre-order the shirt once ready to ship.

Rules:

• Keep colors under and/or around 6.  
• Do not use anything off Google, use your own artwork.
• Drawing PKMN will usually get denied, be more creative.
• Be careful will full art designs & wrapping around the shirt.
• Not every design will be picked for voting. Sorry in advance.

Rules can change at any time.

Please contact us if you have any questions.  

September & October Slow

Your all probably a bit upset that the Podcast went from a 5-7 day posting schedule to a 10-14 posting. We didn't plan for that, and it upsets us just as much as you. Why did this happen?

Looking at statistics, our worst two months last year were September and October. In order to boost traffic again, we launched Eeveetober and while October closed, November was one of the highest viewed months of 2010.

Where are the Nyan Shirts? *UPDATED*

As PKMNcast originally quoted, the Worlds Bundles and Nyan shirts would ship at the end of August. It is now Sept 1st and you are all probably wondering where the shirts are? Let's do some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that issues with the shirt printer occured causing a two week delay on the shirts. The good news is that delay was about 2 weeks ago, so the shirts should be ready at the end of next week! We deeply apologize for the long wait, but we are throwing in some free stuff that will be worth it. If you have any questions, please e-mail us. If the wait was to long and you want to cancel you order, we cannot stop you, but the Slowpoke will be on your body very soon, and trust us, it's worth the wait. I will personally provide an update with the exact date once my printer gets back to me, but like planned, it should be late next week, if not, sooner!

Thanks for everyone who purchased one in advance!

Pokémon World Vacation

Hey guys!

SBJ here with an update. So right now I am writing this while on a plane going to California. On Friday, I will be competing in the Pokémon TCG and VGC Last-Chance Qualifier in San Diego, CA.  

I want to use this time to thank everyone who bought the World Bundles. While I don't use money the site makes for personal use, the extra dollars helped pay for a ticket to California. With that being said, I am also doing a pretty big project while I am down there, so in the scheme of things, it goes full cirlce to benefit the site. 

Worlds Bundle Pre-Order will END on Friday, Aug 12.  (Nyan Poke will still go on)

I also want to give a shout out to Ryan who is letting me crash at his house, and a shout out to Lyle who is tagging along to help with said secret project. Lyle also does a lot of photography for the site. You can follow them both on Twitter. 

Also another shout out to everyone on the Whimsy Tackle crew. For those of you who don't know... my first TCG deck consisted of Bidoof and Slowpoke - both knowing the move "Whimsy Tackle". It was a huge joke in Milwaukee when I played, so it fits how in two months I went from having a terrible deck to a deck ready to compete in a tournament. 

Side note - any orders placed in the last week will be delayed shipping due to me being out of town. I thank you for your patience until I get back home... hopefully as a real Pokémon Master.

Would love to hear your feedback in the comments!
