We're back with another episode of The Gamereactor Show. Later than expected, or earlier depending on your perspective, the 81st episode of the show has been dedicated to all things Pokémon, as we recap the recent 30th anniversary Pokémon Presents show and discuss what we continue to love and what we continue to despise about the format.

We recap the events of the broadcast and how the formula is crying out for change due to how it's always packed out with menial and mediocre updates and announcements, and saves little room for big and memorable news and reveals.

Talking about that latter point, we discuss the reveal of Pokémon Winds/Waves and what we're most excited about for Generation 10 of the creature-catching series and how the announced starter Pokémon stack up to those that came before it. Lastly, we talk all things about Pokémon Pokopia and why this could be one of the best Pokémon games in recent memory.

Check out the most recent episode of The Gamereactor Show below or at your podcast provider of choice, be that Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, or Spreaker.
