Rare Article: Cartridge or Simulator?

Hey, friends. Travis here. Last week I was talking about items. This week I'm not. That's because I have transitioned from writing "Item of the Week" to "Rare Article." Those of you who have been around the site for a while remember a time when Steve wrote an article of the same name that was a sort of variety article. "X of the week" style articles are great, and are arguably the best part of this site, but sometimes you want to see something that pulls a Rampardos and breaks the mold (Lulz C wut I did thar?).

Relocating

Hello everybody! It's your friendly everyday co-host and MOTW editor Aaron! First I want to say thanks to everyone who came out to the Midwest Gaming Classic this last weekend. We had a packed room, awesome tournements, and just a generally swell time!

This week there will be no Move of the Week article due to the relocation of PKMNcast headquarters. SBJ is moving into a much larger space and me, being the co-host am obviously helping with this move. It's been a really busy week for the both of us with late nights and early mornings trying to get everything moved over, but the relocation is almost complete! We're building an entire studio just for recording with soundproofing and everything. All this is happening to bring you guys, the listeners and readers, a better PKMNcast expericence! So while we're relocating this week please take this video as a consolation prize. Your regular PKMNcast will resume this next week!

Etsy Diving

It’s been a while for a Rare Article. It’s not even Thursday! With that aside, I thought I would bring you some interesting custom Pokémon items for sale. Now we were proud to announce our Poli-Shirts last week. Those shirts are limited to 100 made, and they will begin to ship next week. Exciting. 

Anyways, today we look at Pokémon stuff found on Etsy. Etsy is where handmade and vintage stuff lives so others can enjoy and purchase these items. Let’s take a look at a couple of the cool stuff found on Etsy.

Pokémon Polar Fleece Hoodie

This item looks to be sold out, but if you had $107, you too could have bought this custom Pikachu Fleece. From the bright yellow, to the actually tail...

It's kind of funny... what is... our site...

We've been around for about 4 months now, and as a site, we've never done an "About Us" section. I'm sure a lot of new people who visit the site are confused. Today we are going to cover the basics of the site and open a new tab for new readers. 

Welcome to the Pokémon Podcast.

You're probably wondering what we are all about, right? Well let us introduce you to everything. Promise you won't regret your visit!

La PokéWalker

I’ve had a couple non-Pokemon people always ask me what I am wearing on my pants. A quick smile jumps to my face when I tell them it’s my PokéWalker. They generally ask a little bit more, but I usually simplify it by saying it’s a Pokémon Pedometer that counts my steps every day. Excited, I tweet every time someone comments on mine. 

So that short story, that probably got all of you emotional, will lead into this week’s Rare Article... hopefully with little to no grammar errors. 

The PokéWalker debuted with Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver earlier this year. The Pokéball shaped accessory was designed for Trainers to take their Pokémon with them when they weren’t playing the handheld game. Pokemon can be transferred to the PokéWalker to gain experience points every time the Trainer takes a step. Trainers can also “earn” watts, which help unlock items and gives the Trainers a chance to catch wild Pokémon. Pretty cool, right?

Curious about how this Pokémon themed pedometer relates to real life?
Let’s break it down into

Eeveelutions: Leafeon (Updated)

We come to an end for Eeveetober. It was a good first annual holiday. Hopefully, all of you have also enjoyed the whole Eeveepisode that we posted yesterday. You can find it here. Remember to rate us in iTunes.

So now it comes down to Leafeon. Back in Red and Blue, you got a Fire Stone, Thunder Sone, Water Stone, and Leaf Stone. But, the Leaf Stone never worked. And... well.. it doesn't work no either. You have to level your Eevee near a rock of moss to get Leafeon.
