Daycare Dittos: A Pokemon Master Class

Did somebody say Ska? Cody makes his triumphant return to daycare dittos and all because of the first three letters of this bird's name. Tell me that isn't dedication to the craft! Skarmory is a big metal bird. While that seems reductive, it really isn't. It's a big metal bird that makes swords without even trying! Swords are great. Enjoy!

Embark on an adventure deep into the endless ocean and then soaring on the clouds. This Pokemon can do both and that's about it. Who would have thought Remoraid would be the interesting one? Not us! A late baby Pokemon addition tried to save our marriage with Mantine but did it stick the landing? Find out on Daycare Dittos!

Hoe, Hoe, Hoe! Please close your butt sack, the neighbors are watching.It's fitting this bird looks like Santa because he's got a bag full of treats. Maybe if you're stranded he will feed you bugs from deep inside his sack. Delibird is a wild gimmick Pokemon that becomes and even wilder robot. Pokemon is neat. Merry Christmas?

BRRRRRAP BRRRRRAAAAAP SUMMER here at Daycare Dittos. The Daycare Dittos are strapped and look like Ursaring, because they are baring arms. Don't know what I'm talking about? Niether did we! Learn more about the weird gun Pokemon that could have been.

This has to be the most Studio Ghibli Pokemon out there. What started as a pink fun water pal, pulled our a mirror and showed you the true villain to blame for it's demise. Twas man who destroyed the reefs and Game Freak wants you to know!

The most pettable Pokemon of Gen 2 is here! Bring on the Pigs! Sometimes simplicity is all a design needs. This line shows that some brown fur and a cute nose can go a long way. Put on your parka and hop into Swinub with us!

Nothing to see here, just some little gooshy fellas that will melt the skin from your sizzling bones as your marrow cooks from your vicinity to them. I mean, there are not a lot of choices for Fire Pokemon sometimes, so why not risk it?

If you go down in the woods today, you're sure of a big surpriseIf you go down in the woods today,  get ready for sticky guysFor these pokemon will tear you apartTeddiursa wants honey, Ursaluna? Your heart.Today's the day the Poké bears have their picnic

Lock your doors and hide your Eggs. Sneasel is in town! Dark type started off even darker than we remember. This Pokemon is hungry for violence and eggs, and it's all out of eggs.

This bug is a friend. It has a big horn and a bigger heart. It will suck the sap right out your starters back and is so strong it can throw your house across the county. He can Mega evolve, but he will be a little sore the next day! This is Heracross!

We know you Shuckle-heads have been sitting home fermenting patiently for this episode! Aaron Margolin (Pokémon Master & Worlds Biggest Shuckle Fan) returns to give his expertise on 'The Mold Pokemon'. Your juicer at home may be called a "Ninja" but this juice brewing Pokémon has all the makings of an even deadlier warrior!

This Pokemon almost killed Homer Simpson and somehow you always forget that it was part of gen 2. It got a new regional form and evolution and somehow you missed that as well. Qwilfish meant nothing to anyone until the greatest discovery happened on this episode. Is Qwilfish just the water voltorb? ::GASP:: Find out here!

Ugly can be cute sometimes. Ugly can also be just plain old ugly. Snubbull is popular with the ladies. It may have an angry lil stinker face, but it is truly a timid, little sweetheart in the end. Then when you have trained it for a little, it becomes a monstrosity that can't even lift the wait of it's own head. Enjoy!

There are so many brothers on this episode you would think it's a Mcelroy Podcast. Dave's younger brother and long time Pokemon aficionado Jason joins the daycare dittos and makes the brother count 4! Gligar is a flying nightmare in the shape of a lil stinker and we want to talk about it. Whether Gligar is clinging onto your face or hugging your heart, you will enjoy this one!

This is not just an episode, it's a celebration! The Daycare Dittos have made it to Steven's favorite! A guest turned host is taking up the guest spot once again as we talk everything Dunsparce! Count you segments, bury yourself in the dirt and get ready for a fun episode!

A Pinecone, a clam, a bagworm, and a grenade walk into a bar.  All of these Pokemon are the same Evolution line. This isn't a joke. I'm just really confused. 

Racecar. Taco Cat. Poop. These along with these Pokemon are the same forward as they are backward. Is this Pokemon some kind of mirror image or strange CatDog siamese twin monstrocity? Find out here!

You can push this Pokemon away, but it will always come back to you! Wobbuffet has become a Team Rocket mainstay and fashion icon in the lipstick industry. Enjoy!

Your torch cuts through the darkness like a knife through jello. It's thick, damp, untouched for lifetimes. The wall illuminates and that is when you see the markings. They seem alien yet familiar. Was this the language of early man? Maybe even before? Pokemon?You spend hours staring up at the wall. Your eyes strain as you copy the markings down into your notebook. Did they move or is it the flames light licking dancing on the stone?You copy down the last letter just as the Unown descend on you.  You utter the same words the beasts spelled out."who farted?"

BOO! Halloween is almost here and Johto just got a lot spookier! Don’t be scared, it’s just a podcast. But if it wasn’t, this little fella will suck the sweet, sweet fear right out of your noggin. Misdreavus and Mismagius joined the thin Ghost Pokemon family in Gen 2 and have continued to grow with Flutter Mane’s introduction!

Hey Tone, meet us at da Poke mons center afta the Badda Bing, Giovanni wants us to find that yellow rat.Witches and Mobsters? It must be the Halloween season. Another special Sarah joins the Daycare Dittos to discuss this really cool and all powerful bird and its murder.

Pokemon was brilliant in introducing day and night into their games in Gen 2. Sure, we have that in real life, but they added some eevee evolutions to add to the excitement. Imagine if we were able to have night and day pets? Are we onto something here? Nocturnal dogs that change colors in the moonlight? Is that something? Oh well, enjoy this episode.

The Daycare Dittos return to discuss one of their all time favorite Gen 2 Pokemon. This armless wonder goes under the radar most of the time, but you're about to get an hour and a half long celebration to all things Wooper!

I wish that I could flyInto the skySo very highJust like a dragonflyI want to get away...This is a Pokemon podcast about two dragonflies.

This Pokemon is a seed that becomes a flower that does all of the things a normal flower can do. What makes it different you may ask? Well, this flower has a face, can say it's own name, and has a 54 minute podcast about it, so shut up and sit down. We are in this together. 

The "Lil Stinker" energy is off the charts with this one. The monkey with a hand on it's tale is here and it has caused quite the controversy. Is it loved or hated? The Daycare Dittos also ask the hard hitting Ambipom questions. Why Bowlcut? Are those Utters? What pokemon punches with the same force of Peter? 

These lil fellas are just top tier Pokemon designs. Is it a cat weed or a puppy flower? Who really cares? It's all adorable and fun to look at. If a strong breeze blows, Hoppip may blow away which sucks because you can't hang with this little spud anymore, but it also feels good to know that the true happiness Hoppip brings you is also on the breeze,  blowing into a new town to change lives. How splendid.

What happens when trees start being polite and start being rocks!? Find out in this weeks episode. Sudowoodo was made to block the way, Bonsly was the apology for its evolutions follies. A beatiful little stone bonsai with a butthole for... reasons? Seriously, google it.

Oh no no, Pikablu was my father's name, you can call me Marill.The Pokemon that confused all of Western culture, including Topps Collectibles, with a Southern Island card and a smile. Marill hit the scene earlier than most Gen 2 Pokemon, but has had a staying power with even the most recent Pokemon game in Scarlet/Violet. Azumarill has been the enforcer in many raid battles, keeping the pkablu lineage alive!

Mary had a little lamb, its fleece stored electricity and will stop your heart if you try to pet it.  There is a lot to say about this evolutions line. While fans cannot agree why it goes from sheep, to balding naked pink thing, to a giraffe lighthouse, the general consensus is, this thing is pretty cool.

It's the 100th episode! Who would While that seems like a huge milestone, there are still a ton more Pokemon to discuss. For example, look at this weird totem pole bird and it's little baby Borb! I woild love to feed this little guy bread crumbs as it stares deeply into my future and sees the exact second I breath my final breath.

Number One Egg pal is here! "Pokemon 152" and its egg fairies are an odd evolution line but have a very special place in Pokemon history. The anime had not had a odder foray into the next gen since an egg hatched into an egg? It's just a nude egg.

Are you a Chinchou or just pretty smart, because you seem bright. It must be nice having a light attached to your forehead, but I'm not really a fan of overhead lighting. These cute little Pokemon are a triumph in design when you look at the absolute horror show fish they are based on.

AHH A SPIDER! Oh wait, it's kind of cute and has a face on its butt. Spinarak is a cute little bug that welcomes you to the nightime forests in Johto. Enjoy the tales we weave about this little guy. AAAH A BIGGER SPIDER!

Bees make honey and pollinate flowers. Worms till the soil and allow plants to grow and create oxygen for us to breathe. Ledyba has 6 little boxing gloves but can't really punch for sh*t. Welcome to the Ledyba and Ledian episode! Where does this Pokemon fit into Gen 2 and Pokemon as a whole? Listen as the Dittos try to figure that out!

What lurks in the woods at night? Generation 2 finally answered that questions by adding the daytime clock to the game. Hoothoot may have been the first nocturnal pokemon to meet you and Noctowl was a first shiny for many! This episode is for the birds!

It wouldn't be the beginning of a Pokemon game without the low level lil fellas! This raccoon baby and it's tubular weasel mommy are an adorable addition the original 150 and a shining light at the beginning of Johto's journey. Are they useful? Not really. But they sure are cute.

SMASH that play button! This week's guest is none other than friend of the pod EmuKiller aka Silby! While he is best known in the Melee and Project M world, he has a long history and love of Pokemon.  Even though he was crowned the new King of the Mews, he wanted to discuss one of his favorite starters, Totodile.

This fire starter looks like us after too much Taco Bell! What's cuter than a tiny shrew with a fiery backside? Steven weighs in on one of his all time favorite starters and we get to talk about Legends Arceus starters on this week's Daycare Dittos!

And all that glitters is GOLD (and silver)! Welcome to the official first episode of Daycare Dittos Season 2, where we will now journey through the Johto region in hopes of learning about every single Pokemon! We start off with a divisive starter, but a favorite of Ash and many others. Chikorita is here, for better or worse!

This podcast is pretty long, but only because we need to say the freaking title more than once. Returning guest KarlGerm joins the pod to discuss all things Team Rocket, Big Mommy Lugia and the dangers of pill/alcohol addiction. This movie is almost 23 years old and Slowking still hasn't gotten his pants...

Pokemon reached a new height in popularity in 1998 and it's silver screen debut broke box office records, pulled kids from classes, and introduced the World to some new Johto Pokemon well before Gold and Silver hit shelves. This is Pokemon the First Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back!

The Daycare Dittos use Wrap. It's super effective! You beat the last of the Elite 4 but there is one more trainer that has already become champion before you. It's us. All four of us. Don't ask questions, we already did that! We asked our listeners to review all Gen 1 Pokemon and the results are in!

Scarlet & Violet are here (for better or worse) and the Daycare Dittos have each gone on their own Paldean journey, and now return to give you their honest review of Gen 9. Also, 3 Pokemon games have been released since this podcast started. This episode features all new Gen 1 Pokemon forms and facts that have come out after their featured episode. Enjoy!

They finished off the original 150 and then returned to the stage for an encore. To make it even more exciting, they brought back a guest! Frostwad returns to discuss her favorite Pokemon and the original Uber Legendary. Mew has been discovered and we promise we didn't use GameShark.

The Original 150 Pokemon finally comes to a close! As the Daycare Dittos round out the original Pokedex they meet eye to eye with a man-made monster that knows only battle and pain! Mewtwo is here!

This week Daycare Dittos officially become the House of the Dragons. Little Dratini is fished from the Safari zone and grows into a hyper beaming power-house! If you don't know what we are talking about, I'm sure Lance can help explain. DRAGONS!

The scraggliest of the Legendary Birds is here to finish off the trio! Moltres looks like you lit a Fearow on fire, but it is way more than that. This is not a bird you want to catch on the wrong side of the Victory Road!

KABOOOOOOM!!!! That's the sound of the thunder strike. The Daycare Dittos are halfway through the original Legendary Birds, and this one is arguably the coolest. Zapdos proves to be a shocking good time.
