254. Where Are The Trainers?

VIDEO PODCAST ALSO AVAILABLE - https://youtu.be/vjgQeQY1XnQ  Lured Up Podcast 254 Record Date - 2/15/2023 Publish Date - 2/27/2023   As we enter the calm before the GO Tour storm, we have plenty of vanilla spawns to enjoy over the next week or so. We start with a recap of our experiences during the Valentine’s Day event! We enjoyed the spawns and were surprised by the amount of excitement over raiding Mega Gardevoir. In the end, we were very happy with the event and it seemed like the Community thought so as well. Luvdisc Limited Research was also a nice way to keep the event’s momentum going through the weekend.   With GO Tour Vegas happening this weekend and the global gameplay happening next weekend, we dig into the event details. We will have 4 different habitat and spawn pools to catch from over the course of the event, as well as bonuses, research, raids, eggs, stickers and avatar items.   Once we get through the news, we have an open discussion over the current state of IRL play and if Rayquaza will have what it takes to bring some of the veteran Trainers out of hibernation. With the latest wave of new Trainers entering the gameboard, what can we do to support them and welcome them to the Community? I think figuring this out will be exceptionally important to the longevity and overall health of the game!   Valentine’s Day Event - https://bit.ly/LU254Valentines GO Tour Vegas - https://bit.ly/LU254GOTour GO Tour Global - https://bit.ly/LU254Global Primal Rumblings - https://bit.ly/LU254Rumblings    Use code BALLCHECK at https://www.manscaped.com/ for 20% Off and FREE shipping!   Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate    Pokémon Professor Network Merch Store - https://bit.ly/PPNMerchStore    [email protected]     Voicemail, Text, and Picture Line - 732-835-8639    https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork    Hosts Ken Pescatore Adam Tuttle   Writer and Producer Ken Pescatore   Executive Producer  Paul Bhatt   Show music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons   ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com   Intro Music Lake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix)  Tetracase GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/tetracase  https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0   Break Music National Park Mikel & GameChops GameChops - Poké & Chill http://smarturl.it/pokechill https://twitter.com/mikel_beats   Outro Music Vast Poni Canyon CG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix) GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/  http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beats https://soundcloud.com/glitchxcity Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2021 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.
