A Farfetch'd Tale
Gotta Watch’em All Podcast 141 Recording Date: 5/18/26 Publish Date: 5/24/26 Watch the video version of this podcast at: http://patreon.com/pokemonprofessor Ash was quick to leave Azalea town after acquiring the Hive Badge, and the party is on their way through Ilex Forest. They stumble on a young Trainer who is having a hard time getting his Farfetch’d to properly use cut. Sylvester introduces himself and explains how he is working on gathering materials to create “purifying charcoal”. Brock is familiar with the material, and Ash encourages the Trainer to keep trying. Once at the Pokémon Center, Ash calls Professor Oak on the video phone and fills him in on his recent adventures like the Lure Ball that Kurt gave him and his new Hive badge. Ash’s Pokémon like Muk, Kingler, Snorlax, and Tauros make a cameo as he learns that Goldenrod City will be their next destination. Just after the call, Sylvester comes running into the Pokémon Center in a panic as he has lost his Farfetch’d again. We learn that Sylvester is under immense pressure from his Father Yosaku who regularly reminds him of his shortcomings. The team decides to put a search party together for Farfetch’d, and we see an incredible amount of Pokémon make appearances. While on the hunt, Farfetch’d encounters Team Rocket, and a massive, multi Pokémon battle ensues, and we get to see some serious moves and battling. The battle ends with Sylvester stepping up to command Farfetch’d to get him to use cut on trees, trapping Team Rocket long enough for Pikachu to blast them off. We get a feel good moment back in town, as Yosaku tells Sylvester that he is proud of him. On that high note, the party sets off for Goldenrod City, but not before receiving some charcoal for the road.

Gettin' The Bugs Out
Gotta Watch’em All Podcast 140: Gettin’ The Bugs Out Recording Date: 5/4/2026 Publish Date: 5/5/2026 Watch the video version of this podcast at: http://patreon.com/pokemonprofessor Pokémon the Series original air dates: Japan: 4/20/2000 USA: 3/17/2001 This episode wastes absolutely no time getting right down to it! We closed last week’s episode knowing that we were on the way to the Azalea Town Gym, now that it is functioning again (thanks to the Slowpoke). What we didn’t know was that as soon as Ash steps foot in the Gym, that an almost full episode length battle was about to go down. We meet the Azalea Town Gym Leader, Bugsy, who you guessed it, is a Bug-Type Trainer. Within minutes, the stage is set with Ash and Bugsy taking their positions on the battlefield. Before long we realize that Bugsy has an all Bug team, with Spinarak being his first choice. With Charizard not available, Ash decides on Cyndaquil to start the battle, having a strong type-advantage. Ash realizes quickly that Cyndaquil needs a little time to warm up, as the Spinarak makes pretty quick work of him before being called back to his Pokéball. Something also worth mentioning is that the battle animations in this episode look incredible, with more details, frames, and the speed lines that we all love. We see Ash bring out Chikorita and Pikachu to help bring things home, but it’s Cyndaquil that closes the deal for the team. We see Bugsy bring out a Metapod who has some fancy moves, and a Scyther, that puts on a show with both Double Team and Sword Dance. Ash has to be quick on his feet to figure out how Cyndaquil’s flames can get past Sword Dance, and a daring move let’s the attack land in spectacular fashion. This battle was awesome. We saw very little of Team Rocket in this episode, as they did show up to the battle only to be accidentally shocked by Pikachu, which of course worked out for everyone. Once the Gym Battle is complete and Ash earns his Hive Badge, Maizie catches up with the team to give them some fresh Apricorn Pokéballs that Kurt made. Ash and Misty take Lure Balls, and Brock takes a Heavy Ball. It was really cool seeing the different types of Pokéballs, especially after learning how they are made!

Going Apricorns
Gotta Watch’em All Podcast 139: Going Apricorns Recording Date: 4/27/2026 Publish Date: 5/3/2026 Watch the video version of this podcast at: http://patreon.com/pokemonprofessor We finally make it to Azalea Town! We also get one step closer to understanding the GS Ball! We see Ash hand off the GS Ball to Kurt, who is excited to take a closer look. We won’t have closure on this part of this story arc though, as Kurt has absolutely no idea what the GS Ball is or how it works! Confident he can learn more over time, he will have to hold on to the GS Ball for longer to go into deeper analysis. We actually learn a lot about Poké Balls in this episode, as Kurt has mastered the art of harvesting Apricords and converting them into different types of Poké Balls. This lore is VERY welcomed in a series of episodes that have been tangential to the main quest. With Lane being an expert on Johto, he reveals that unfortunately, we won’t hear about the different types of balls that Kurt makes after this episode. Team Rocket actually turns their priority from kidnapping Pikachu to stealing Kurt’s Apricorn operation. They think if they can make a fortune off of selling the unique Poké Balls. We meet a few Pineco, as they are hanging off of the apricorn trees, and they get involved in a scuffle with Team Rocket. When the dust settles, we see Brock have the opportunity to not only catch a Pineco, but to do it in one of Kurt’s custom Fast Balls. While we haven’t yet reached the Azalea Town gym, it was definitely cool that Brock was able to add a new Pokémon to his roster!
