Episode 132 - Pokémon Adventures (Pokémon Special)

Happy Pokémon Day! Finally the stars have aligned and we get to talk about the #1 franchise of all time, Pocket Monsters! We discuss all three volumes of the Red Green Blue arc of Pokémon Adventures aka Special, alongside plenty of games chat and memories as we reflect on the greatest of 'em all, and why it was Sean's destiny to be a Pokémaniac. ~ Welcome to That Time I Started A Podcast To Read Trash Manga With My Friends And Actually Most Of Them Were Trash But Some Of Them Weren't! Or The Trash Manga Friends Podcast, for short. Each fortnight, our trio of Sean, Mike and Phil read the first two volumes (or equivalent) of a manga, webtoon, manhua or manhwa, analysing every little detail to discuss what's good, what's bad, and what's trash. And believe us, half a decade in, there's a lot of trash to discuss. So come listen to our book club slash neverending existential nightmare! ~ Follow us on social media!
