Poké Chat #7: Time Warp




Hypable's Poké Chat: A Pokémon Podcast show

Summary: Ash does the time warp. Again. Reeling off of the Gen VI announcement, the Poké Chatters recap episodes 1x11 "Charmander the Stray Pokémon" and 1x12 "Here Comes the Squirtle Squad." -Pokéballs can be used once to attempt a capture in the games, but infinitely in the anime. -How does Damian have all of those Pokémon with him? And where exactly does his accent originate from? -We'd love to know where Nurse Joy came up with the "battles can't be for personal vendettas" rule. -What were the trio's rain jackets made out of, if the jackets still conducted electricity in the rain? -Team Rocket's rubber ball rocket-gun = that silly putty "never popping bubble" stuff. -Just how many traps can one group of human beings fall into? -We discuss "selective conductivity" in terms of what Pikachu "accidentally" shocks at the riverside, while fighting the Squirtle. -Dye Misty's hair purple? How dare they! The Squirtle Squad must be hair stylists on the side. -How did Brock know Pikachu needed a super potion, specifically? -Team Rocket holds up a store with REAL guns. Then Ash is threatened. With real guns. - Oh yeah, and Gary Oak made an appearance. Smell ya later! -Officer Jenny is the ideal Deus ex machina, Latin for "God's machine." -Do Pokémon hear everything that happens when they're in their pokéballs? Or are they in a Matrix-like state in pokéballs? -Aaand everyone loves the Squirtle Squad. That was a sudden change. -Poké fun features a Froslass Pokémon highlight, and a scenario in which out of all Pokémon, Shuckle, in the games, can deal the most damage. -News covers movie 16 details from CoroCoro, the names and pronunciations of the new Gen VI legendaries, and official concept art for the Gen VI starters and legendaries. *Bonus* Mitch attempts to explain the importance of Ash's socks.
