Talking primarily about the new Diamond and Pearl remakes and Pokémon Legends Arceus, Game Freak’s design philosophy and how it’s funny that Post Malone said “sex” in an officially-sanctioned Pokémon concert.

In it we have a long discussion about the Pokémon competitive scene, the meaning of narrative for both players and viewers in an e-sports community and which Pokémon could be considered war crimes under the Geneva Convention.

Elite Full Restore is back with a panel of friends (Steven, Silva and Morg) to talk about the upcoming Sword and Shield DLC, the competitive scene and running a Draft League for battling. We also simultaneously come up with the most galaxy-brained fan-theory of all time on the spot which you might be able to guess from the title.

Featuring: Matt, Steven, Silva and Morg.

This episode was very lightly edited due to some audio difficulties. If there’s anything particularly egregious, let us know on Twitter!

This episode contains spoilers for unrevelealed portions of the Galar Dex and information about the game, such as Gym Leaders, which may be considered spoilers to some so tread at your own risk.

This episode was also fully recorded by a web-hosted recording bot for simplicity, and thus will have occasional blips in the audio.

Humans in the Pokemon world likely lay eggs

To help him out, Matt reached out to friend of the show @servbot42 for his feelings about the last few years of Pokémon dealings, including Let’s Go, the Sun/Moon anime, and the honestly kind of surprising transformation of Pokémon Go into, like, a real game. Also our controversial #DEXIT opinions.

Our new art is by @golurkart and our music is, as always, the GSC Surf theme.

Anyone who has played Pokémon Colosseum has always had annoyance with this guy.

BUT DAMN YOU CAN’T SHAME THE FACT HIS TUNE IS CATCHY AS HELL.

Comparison of the 2016 “Mario Pikachu” promotional art by the Pokémon Company (top) and the 1985 Super Mario Bros. Japanese box art, drawn by Shigeru Miyamoto (bottom), on which it is based.

In addition to replacing all characters from the original artwork with Pokémon that resemble them, there are subtler changes around the environment. The cliff on the left was replaced with the Cerulean Cave from Pokémon Red and Blue, the pipe below Mario was replaced with the Slowpoke Well from Pokémon Gold and Silver, and the castle behind Bowser was replaced with the Tin Tower/Bell Tower, also from Pokémon Gold and Silver.
