Welcome to episode 311 of Lured Up Podcast, where we take Pokemon Go way more seriously than we do ourselves. I'm so excited for episode 311. 311 is a band that is like favorite, a favorite of mine, my most seen live band. Love me some 311, so I love that this is episode 311. But Lured Up is part of the Pokemon Professor Network. Today's Thursday, June 27th, 2024, this episode is streaming live on Twitch, YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook. So please, if you're on any of those channels, throw us a follow, throw us a subscription, we would appreciate it. I'm Ken Pescatore, that's Adam Tuttle. Hey everyone, Adam Tuttle, just like Ken just told you, but I'm Adam. Hi. Not too much, it's Ben. How are you doing? A shiny week. Has it? Since the last time we spoke, it's literally been a shiny week. I, not so much in New Jersey, I guess it's a, it's a, you know, amateur thing. Like you wouldn't, Matty G in the chat, what up? You wouldn't know it was an egg event that was going on. Did you, did you not get shinies from eggs? Did you get them from other means? I did not get any shinies from any eggs. But I did use the widget. So I actually, something interesting about that. So I had three 12 Ks, right, and I had a bunch of 10 Ks, and I didn't really care what I put in, you know, in for, through the widget. I didn't even think about it at the beginning of the event. And I incubate three 10 Ks, right? Just normal, not with the widget, just as normal, Pokemon screen scroll over, and I got the quarter hatch distance. And I didn't launch the game via the widget. I had already had the game open, and I'm looking at the, like the distance, and I'm like, wait a second, this is quarter hatch, this isn't half hatch. And I didn't do it through the widget. So I don't know if that was a weird one off thing that only I experienced. I want to say, I did something similar where I went to the game, I had already had it opened, and I just started, like, hatching. I mean, the first two I definitely made sure to do the widget, and the third one was still the quarter hatch distance, but I don't remember if I actually, because the game was already up, I was playing, but I don't remember going back and tapping the widget. I think that what kind of threw a lot of people off is they forgot about it, and then they're like, wait a second, I put in eggs through the widget and I didn't get it. Because I think they may have not been paying attention in the beginning when they put in their first three eggs, regardless of how they put them in, as long as they had the widget downloaded. I don't know if that's the case, maybe tin foil hat theory, but for me, I got the quarter hatch distance without launching it through the widget, I just got it. So that was weird, definitely weird. But we got a lot to talk about this week, man, like a ton. There's a lot of news. We have Gofest prep. So we're going to kind of rip through some stuff pretty quickly. We'll recap the last week of gameplay, scorching steps, the hatch event. We had more low spotlight hour, which was a huge hit, and evil tall raid hour. The eighth anniversary event is up next, and it'll probably give us a little bit of nostalgia to the Pokemon Go events of your, like the events that like actually meant something. And we would say like, oh, this is a comprehensive event because it has great raid Pokemon and egg Pokemon and research Pokemon and wild Pokemon. It would be comprehensive and touch on all the disciplines of the game, all the different mechanics. The eighth anniversary event, definitely a comprehensive event. Our Dynamax and Gigantamax coming to Pokemon Go. They better be. So we're going to take a look at an article and definitely inappropriately speculate on... Let's put those tin foil hats to work. Absolutely. July content update is here, and I hope you like raiding because this month is going to be exceptionally raid heavy. Obviously, we have Gofest, but outside of that, I hope you like raiding. Lots of raid hours, lots of raids, lots of good raid bosses. So we'll talk about that outside. Oh, Aquatic Paradise, another one that they just kind of sprung on us. Was that like a duck joke? Because you said Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? Aquatic? I just want to listen to Aquatic ambiance from Donkey Kong Country 64, one of the best video game tracks of all time. Look it up. Aquatic Paradise. That'll be the first event of July, and we'll run through those details as well. Tainemo will be our community day Pokemon for July, and if they don't have extra, extra small showcases, I'm going to be upset because this is the perfect idea. I'm already upset. They did it without it. What was the other small Pokemon, Joltik? Did they do showcase some words like the largest bounce wheat? Like, come on. Let's get the extra, extra, smalls in that Staronka interview of Eurogamer. They're like, "What do we do with the extra, extra, small?" It's like, no one wants to see those. Location, catch cards are getting a spin off as we head towards Gofest, Global, which leads us to the next bit of news. That Ultra Beasts are coming back, and there's some pretty good bonuses and research associated with all that shows should be pretty neat. Niantik has paired up with Play Pokemon to build up the Pigo presence at the local game store scene. You can get some pretty sweet rewards. It'll be interesting to see how this rolls out, and if stores are ready and staffed and educated, we'll get there. And as we prep for Gofest, Niantik has released some travel tips along with the New York City map, the layout of the biomes, the habitats. This is super helpful. Now, is it bigger than it was last year? I don't think it's, you know what? I should probably pull up last year's map, but it's the same pretty much area, but different layout as far as where the meat-greet tent will be, and kind of the action that, as soon as you come over like the RFK bridge, you're like right into the heart of it, so they may be directing traffic a little bit different, but they probably learned from last year. Remember, we had that horrible bottleneck at the south entrance, which then turned everyone around and made it one way. It was a nightmare, so hopefully they fixed all that, and I'm sure that plays into the layout. But that map, I recommend you save that as your phone's screen saver. You always have it on the ready, on the arm, right there ready to go. And then finally, we're going to share some of our announcements for our New York state of grind and other Gofest stuff that we have going on. We've been trickled teasing out different creators that are going to be joining us on the grind. We hope you all can meet us there and make it out. It's going to be absolutely awesome. Five miles, five mile grind, so to be pretty legit. Chat is popping off right now. Thank you so much to everyone that is in the chat. Appreciate it. Welcome. Welcome. We're glad to have you. Well, someone in the chat is in the future because they said the eighth anniversary event has just started. They live on the future. They're on the other side of the universe. All right, let me know how it's going. Catch by catch. Let me know. You love the party hats? Yeah, you know, I don't love the party hats. I love the party hats. All right, scorching steps. So no shiny hatches for you. No shiny hatches for me. Did you, like, get any large vistas, though? Like the J, at least know the large vista? Get out. No, I got, I got a lot of large vista. Just no shinies. I did a bunch of turtinator tasks and nothing. And time research is always fun. I like this, you know, but the chase here was definitely, uh, larvesta, even though, um, you know, turtinator was another, another reach for a lot of people and this was an opportunity to get it outside of raids. But, uh, yeah, my, my, like, first shiny of the event was an Aloma mola. Really interesting. Yeah. And then community day happened and I got, you know, I was able to play. Got a lot of, I mean, oh, did you, but we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll skip that for a second. It's like, oh, okay, I technically, out of one of the tasks, I got a slugma. So. That's an event Pokemon. That's an event Pokemon. So I guess looking back, but I got another cl, I got a clamp pearl shiny and Aloma mola shiny. A second one. I was like, are you serious right now? And then I got a low tad shiny and I'm like, did, did I just, is this the water event? Like, I couldn't tell that it was a fire event. Let me tell you. And then I got a geo dude, an onyx. And then spotlight hour. I got a moral low. I mean, I know I just, I just went through the whole show, but, you know, let's, let's talk about spotlight hour because this was a big one. This was, uh, I, and I had boosted weather in red bank with the same, same, they were taking forever to catch. 1875, 1875 Stardust per catch with a star piece. If you had boosted weather, it was wild. I caught 260 more low. So it was, it was pretty wild. It was a big, it was a big payday. Say the least. I had to pull over a couple of times to be able to catch. But I'm glad I did because that allowed me to see and catch the shiny. I'm, I'm up over 26 milli on the, let's, let's, let's make a, let's. Yeah, I've, I've just put in all my dust into my, my slacking with the hat. Are you really? Yeah, I think I'm, I'm 40 candies away from maxing it out, but I want to take a video of me maxing it out. Cause I think it's what 26. I have a, I have a bunch that I want to max out, including the goomy line because I did get that during, during community day and all three hundred. So you got to do it. That, that would be a fun one. That would be a phone for sure. But, uh, virtual, it says, oh, oh, I get it Western Australia for the win. So let's, let's talk about more a little real quick. So did you, did you get, you got the shiny during the event? Obviously. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. All right. Cool. It was actually like, I, I, I had pulled over because I'm like, I know it's spotlight hour. I need to, I need to try and get the shiny for this. And I caught like probably like 30 or 40, whatever was in my radius and they just kept spawning and I was like, okay, so help me understand the rural gameplay here though. Like you say you pull over and you. So, so there's, so there's no stops. There's nothing. It's like pretty much like highway. There's like woods and highway. There's no, like, I can't, I can't just, I can't just play the game. Like, I can't like pull over on the side of the road and then just, there's spawn. Like, I mean, there are, but it's not what I want. It's not what I need. But I get into like, like, I'll, I'll pull through Alton and I'll pull on the side. And then I'm able to like shopping center parking. Yeah. Well, there's, there's like restaurants. There's, it's like right next to the water. It's a pop and area, but it's like, there's so much like activity and there's stops and gyms all along that, that one spot. So there's so many spawns that happened. So it's all happening in like this tight little area. Yes. Outside of the area and it's barren. Yeah. There's like nothing. Yeah. So, all right. Okay. So it's like, I'll catch that makes it a fun place to play though. Yeah. So I'll catch some stuff like at what the, like one of the rest stops near Mount Major. So you can see like, it's got a nice view and I'll get a bunch of catches there. But I happened to stop halfway, which is Alton. And I was able to catch the shiny there. And I was like, all right, sweet. And then when I got home, I was able to clean up what was here. And my house is pretty, pretty lively. For no, like no joke, like it was legit was lively. Like it's for no reason. For no reason is far. Like, I got, dude, my, I'm at my house right now. I have nothing. I've got, you know, a couple stops in the gym, you know, in the, in the, in the Periff from, from my house. This is my new place. But I'm like in a, in a dead zone. So I got nothing. Dude, I did not use my daily adventure. Yeah. Like, I've got, I've got. It's a bottle. Wait, no. What's that? I don't even know what this thing is. Well, I got a. I got to red bank. The first thing I see when I roll in the red bank is a SIPEO post and campfire, the shiny. I mean, he's just like, I guess I can just enjoy the Stardust now. Oh, and I'm glad that I. Nice. There you go. Open the gate. No, more low was awesome. Uh, this, you know, these type of events that stack different bonet, like, I guess Stardust specifically. This brings, you know, I was busting my son's chops because we're, we're talking the weather was so great and it was so nice. And there's like a bar low. People were really excited about this. Like, oh, no, man, the Stardust brings all the boys. I was excited for it. I didn't have the shiny. I had one and I just needed one more. Did I get it? I did not. All right, let's talk about 8th anniversary because this, this event's going to be a lot of fun Friday, June 28. So tomorrow from the time of this recording to Wednesday, July 3. This is pretty awesome. So this is an interesting event because it's, it crosses the month. Um, and you've actually have, I hate when they're like Pokemon debut. It makes it sound like a new Pokemon. It's not necessarily a new Pokemon, but it's a debut of the party hat. Come on. No, it's a party hat. You could party, man. Party on. This event is all about Meltan. I hope everyone has a mystery box locked and loaded and ready to go. I transferred a shiny Kyogre to home. And I'm like, where's where's the alert? This is, I got my box. I already had one ready. I just didn't use it. I haven't used one. It's so long. It's literally been. I, I, it has to have been since the last, when was the last Meltan event, a long, a long, yeah, like, no, and six to eight months, maybe even a year. We talked about this a lot. The luster of a mystery box is like gone when the shiny is not available. Like, I don't know if they'd rather have it where there's like this frenzy for one week with everyone doing it. Or just nobody doing it at all. Put it full odds. Put it at full odds and just make it a consistent shiny that you can get. I don't know. Yeah, people will have to interact with home or they'll have to interact with. Absolutely. But I have zero motivation. Like I don't have the same same with the postcards to the switch. Well, I mean, you have golden lures there. You've got, you know, Vivian, and, you know, there's, there's, there's stuff. There's, there's reasons. There's reasons. Yeah, but I'm not. It's the same way for me for this though. But Grimer and Muck would a party hat? You got the shiny Meltan increased chance for lucky friends, increased chance to get lucky in trades. Friendship levels increase. Open. Open my gifts tomorrow. They always say this faster than normal, which typically will just mean twice. So two friend interactions per, you know, single interaction. And what this means is be ready to get snaked on leveling up XP. So if you've been like sand bagging gifts or something like that. And then, you know, you're two days away from going best friends with somebody. It's like they're going to strike and, you know. Is it okay for me to just open gifts? Like, I'm just going to open it. Well, look, if you know the people, reach out to them, be like, yeah, let me do it. Chance of finding eight or 88. You're my pet. You brought up. You brought up the good point last week. Does this mean that the Gimme Ghoul coins will only be eight or 88 and no other, you know, no other amount? That'll be interesting to see. And then we have different bonuses for the 28 through 29th and every two days of the event, essentially, half hash distance, double catch XP and then double start us, which is pretty fun because it rotates. So you have shiny melton the whole time. Grimer and Muck would a party had the whole time. You have varying bonuses throughout the event. So, you know, one, it keeps it fresh. Players like me, I'm going to play through the whole event. So it's nice that I have rotating things. More casual players may say, Hey, I'm going to focus on playing this game on the 30th because I really need XP or something like that. So I do kind of increases accessibility here because it gives people like an idea of what to expect and it's a shorter amount of time. They're like, Hey, if you want this, play on these two days. I do want to jump in and say, I really appreciate the fact that the start of this event is half hatch egg distance because people that have gotten the eggs from the last of the event. Oh, yeah, can actually still, you know, run through those. Yes. Yeah, yeah, they're sitting on them. Oh, that's a good point. That's a very good point. Like, like, this is probably the best way to do that. You don't extend the gameplay. You mitigate that middle ground. Yeah, yeah. Well, it's also prepping us for Go Fest, right? Because, I mean, the people that are going anyway, because you'll be able to cycle through your eggs. You know what I mean? Get rid of the old event eggs, maybe make some room. But, Cipio in the chat just said the best part about this is a solid last chance to get lucky with people before New York City. Absolutely. Was there a wink in there? I think I heard a wink. Yeah, I don't know how you hear a wink, but I definitely have to discord yelling at me the other day because they're like, man, this dude Ken doesn't like to open gifts. Look, he doesn't like to open my gifts. I did open one yesterday. But I have a problem opening gifts with, I'm best friends with people. It's just like a mental block. I'm just constantly on the XP grind for regular friendship. So that's what happens. Wild encounters. You got some of the older party hats coming back. The Pikachu has the K cat. So that's pretty cool. And then you've got a Sprigotito, Fueco, and Quaxley starters in there as well. A lowland grimmer is the if you're lucky kind of thing. And then you've got a bunch of rotating spawn pools. So Adam, you said that you were into this last week because again, yeah, it keeps it keeps the event fresh. We've talked about how events don't necessarily feel like events. They don't feel too different from like. Everyday gameplay. I think when you're rotating the bonuses, rotating the spawn pool, rotating all the things, it will keep players engaged. It'll keep people kind of on their toes and things will seem fresh through the event. And you're not like, Oh my God, another day of the, you know, of all party hat Pokemon. Oh, well, you gotta get that. Well, I'm just saying, because you've got the original, the OGs, the cantos coming back. And you know, that's not that exciting. Even with the party. Field research. Yeah. Field research with mega energy. How do you feel about that? I love it. I like it if I don't have the opportunity to battle that Pokemon. Well, this is why this is such a great thing for accessibility, right? People say, Oh, I can't even though mega raids are easy as hell. And they've turned the volume down of the difficulty on mega raids that like, you know, they overtly said that like, we want to make mega raids easier. So to two people party play, you're good, you know, for the most part. But this is really nice for people that don't want to raid or can't raid to just grind some field research and still be able to mega evolve. So this is pretty cool. And usually it's like 25 mega energy like it's a nice little chunk. Honestly, I'm most excited about the Rowlet from July 2nd to the third, because I'm still, I need one Rowlet for my community day research that I did not. Oh my God. Amazing. Amazing. That's hilarious. Free time research and a $2 time research. But look, this is a, this is how you sell a research, right? Because no, no, no, you just ask your friends. You say, Hey, Ken. Wink. Wink. Yes, I know, I know. Dude, I've been, I've been getting KJD the man. I've been getting, I've been getting what you call it, gifts of, of, I keep forgetting this screenshot when somebody is nice enough to do that for me. Okay. Which I appreciate. Don't hook me up with like the last three community day tickets and this the eighth anniversary ticket. But check it out, man. Two bucks. You get an incubator, super incubator, premium battle pass, lucky egg, a rocket radar, which is normally two bucks. A star piece, incense, puffing, 88, 88, 88, 88 XP, 88,000, and an extra melton. So no, no chance of using Pokemon home. There's your deck sentry. Boom. You get an encounter with melton. You just got a pony. Yeah, I like that a lot. But you also get melton in the free time research. So if you want the decks, here you go. Two opportunities. You can get two of them if you have no access. We need to whisper in the woods. Why? Oh yeah, whispers in the woods. This is the $5 premium. I guess this, you know, they're calling it. This is the shiny Celebi. This is like a master work extension here. So I'm going to read it right from the release. It says shiny Celebi originally appeared in Pokemon Go and the distracted by something shiny special research story. And it's returning once more as part of the 8th anniversary, once purchase, you'll be able to access master work research story and explains which are a special kind of research that are intended to be completed over a long period of time. Usually there's something like you should bold or 500 cash. Well, that's the fun of it. It lasts a long time. They don't know. They don't want us to think it's that long or they don't want. Well, but they will certainly time gate it by being like, dude, it's been a stop 30 days in a row. These dollar or two dollar researches, they are over before they even start. Like, I don't even know what I need to do. And it's just like three research update. I'm like, I transferred with Pokemon and I caught a Pokemon and it's like, congratulations. It's so lame, dude. And then like, I go back to the today view and it's gone. I'm like, that was it. Like, really? That was like, there's no page two. Yeah, there's nothing. It's just like catch a Pokemon turn launch, turn on Pokemon go complete. You're just like, geez, open up the app. Yeah, it's it's pretty weird. But the thing to note here, trainers who purchased this masterworks research story or have previously purchased the old one distracted by something shiny, special research story can also get on top of the story itself, double in since duration, double daily event during since duration and double lucky egg duration. Now, you can buy this ticket from up until July 3rd. If you're going to buy it, and the earlier you buy it, would be better because you get these bonuses through the end of the event through the end of the eighth anniversary event. So you buy it on the last day, you're getting this for one day, still paying five bucks. But if you pay five bucks on the first day, you get this for the entire event, the entire stretch of the event six six days or whatever it is. So, it's under his re web store box. Yep, avatar items. These are pretty cool. The Ore Corio hats are back. And some pretty awesome stickers. Love the melton one. But this event is all over the place. And I think that's why it's going to be a successful event. Squid to Beast. Yo, yo, Squid to Beast. Hatch the Shundo Larvesta. I saw that. I was like no way. That's nuts. That is nuts. Like, like, hatching a shiny one is nuts. Dude, that's. Hatching a hundo. Yeah. Shiny one. Super flex. Super flex. All right, really quick. Let's inappropriately speculate. I just wanted to touch on this and we're going to jump over to Pokemon Go Hub. Says Dynamax and Gigantamax might be coming to Pokemon Go Hub. Maybe coming to Pokemon Go soon. That seems like a stretch zero. But however, it's always fun to speculate on this. And we did this before when mega evolutions were about to be released because we saw some shifting in the UI of the Pokemon screens and we see that again here. So it goes through the differences between Dynamax and Gigantamax. The too long didn't read is every Pokemon, every Pokemon, every Pokemon can Dynamax, only certain Pokemon can Gigantamax. Here's some examples. But there is a screenshot down here that I want to just pull up. Sorry for scrolling so fast in the video. Where is it? Here we go. So we're looking at a mega gengar and you can see that the mega symbol, which normally houses the timer, which is usually at the left side of the arc, the CP arc, has now been moved to a tray below the typings. And it's all alone in the middle. And it kind of makes you speculate that the Dynamax icon could fit in the tray and look at this mock up that they put together here. So this could be why they've made this UI change so they can have room for Dynamax and Gigantamax icons. I wish I paid a little bit more attention to this game sometimes. I'm still on that mega evolution grind every day, man. I'm running through my I have it all tagged, you know, and I run through just the gameplay is it's the most compelling gameplay ever me just running through my entire list of mega Pokemon just one after another mega of all the next one mega of all the next one's like, you sure this book amount will be mega of all the anymore. It's like, you know, just trying to move the metal, the needle up on the metal. But no, I love inappropriately speculating like this. Of course Dynamax and Gigantamax are coming. Does this mean they're coming soon. The Storanka's interview did say that Galar was a focus would be pretty awesome. Imagine they, you know, do something in PvP where they can have or raid battles that kind of embrace this where, you know, raid bosses currently are like Dynamax or Gigantamax Pokemon or Dynamax Pokemon because they're they retain their normal form. But when you when Pokemon Gigantamax is it changes features. But maybe they embrace that and it's like raid battles are rebranded as Dynamax battles and it's like, oh my god, now this all makes sense to the lower of Pokemon. And I think there are certain gems, certain gems into like the Pokemon, you know, did you play through Galar? Yes, the lore of like the stadiums are built on these like seismic areas of the of the landscape that had, you know, so maybe the Pokemon. raid gyms will become the lays. Oh, no, it's not the Dynamax. A lot of soodle. Yeah, that'll that I don't want to do this. That'll bend a lot of people out of shape. I'm already out of shape. Someone's like, I have a post office in my town and, you know, and a church and neither of them are gyms where you have one gym in town and it's not an EX. It's like, I got to take the tractor. I got to take the tractor in a town. It's like a raid. I love your real trainer, Captain Masterful 27. Got to take the John Deere in a town. All right. I know. I know like I we were best that we were talking back and forth with Lane and it's like. Yo, dude targets too far. Dude, he's explaining like the real rural stuff. And I'm like, dude, this you can't be kidding. Like, is this real? Like, it's it's wild. The differences. Like I'm in the woods a little bit, but I can get to a target. He's in the country 15, 20 minutes deliverances on him. You know, you walk by the, like, the general store. It is like a transistor radio and a TV like, but I intended on it with plain deliverance. It's like squeal like a pig. All right. We got it. We have to move through this quick because there's so much news here. Yeah, but I just sent you pictures of like glitches. Glitches. Am I allowed to show these on the? You are. Yeah. Yeah. I know that they're glitches of Pokemon. Like I have a shadow. I caught a shadow, a lowland, sand true and it's got two tails. Let's look at Adam's glitches here for the video viewers. There's a sand shrew with two tails. We've got a flabe. Oh, yeah, it's flowers like backwards or something. I didn't really understand that one. And then the sandy guest has a second face inside its mouth and then it like closes its mouth. It looks like a meep from from like yip yip yip yip yip yip from sesame. So I saw Glitch online and then I had it happen to me where you join a remote raid and you're in the lobby multiple times. So I haven't seen that. You scroll through the lobby and it's like, hey, there's me and it's like, oh, there's me again. It's like, there's me. It was like a 20 person lobby and I'm in there three times. I was like, this is Ken, you're not allowed to do that. That's that's against the TOS multi. I'm playing on seven phones, but the same account on set. Yeah, exactly. It's like, what's the point? Well, you know, we're going to run through this really quick. Yeah, I spent seven bucks on seven different phones. No, I'm going to or 14 bucks. We're going to say it's a little bit more expensive. Look, we've got so much to go through. We got, we're all right. All right. When we do July, when we do these monthly content updates, what we'll do is. What we'll do is rip through them super fast and then over the next, you know, four weeks as we get through July, we'll actually dig into each of the stuff as it's more relevant to our, you know, upcoming or past gameplay. So we'll just we're just going to kind of zip through this and we're going to jump over to the official Pokemon go Twitter. And we have the July content update on the cover key art. We see Buzzwall, Ferimosa, Zircuitry, and then dust remain Dawn Wings Necrozma, which can be shiny, you know, based on its original form. So ultra beasts are back here. And let's see. Here we go. Five star raids. We have all the UBS coming back. Gus Lord, Nilego, Celesteela, Split, Southern Hemisphere, Cartana and Northern Hemisphere, Stack Attack, coming back, Blacephalon coming back. So we've had plenty of opportunities to do like, you know, Gus Lord, Nilego, Celesteela, Cartana, Buzzwall, Ferimosa, Zircuitry. Now we have a second shot at Stack Attack and Blacephalon. So that's pretty big. I can't wait for Gus Lord. I need those candy excels. Yes, nice, nice. And then you have Articuno and tornadoes closing out the month incarnate tornadoes just kind of closing things out. But remember, Gus Lord, Nilego, Celesteela, Cartana, Buzzwall, Ferimosa. Send me every single raid. Shiny eligible. So this might be the month I remote raid. Dude, I hate to say it. I don't have the shiny evil tall. I did so many remote raids, dude. I think I got invited to so many. And I think I did like two or three. I ripped through $20 in coins from the web store. I ripped through $20 in like one sitting during like West Coast radar. I just accepted like all that stuff. Wow. It hurt. It hurt. Yeah, I was, I was capping out just painful. 10 bucks a day. Go Fest Global. Obviously, this is going to be, you know, a big deal. So, but we talked about this month being very raid heavy. Lots of raids come Go Fest. All the UBS featured throughout day one, July 13th of Global Go Fest. And then day two is when dust bane, Dawn wings, Necrozma will be available. So, you know, be mindful with raid passes, what you want to prioritize here. And there's going to be a lot of different ways that you can get raid passes. And we'll talk about that. Mega swamp hurt mega ag-ground coming back to mega raids. Any interest there? Shadow Entei. Shadow Entei? Yeah. These shadow raids on the weekends, man, it's, it's a tough sell. I end up doing them when I'm out doing other events or doing other things. I've never had like a dedicated gameplay session to go out and do shadow raids. The only time was with Chanel and Cassita Cubone. And we did Shadow Mewtus in downtown Dover. And that was, yeah, that was it. But if we run through our month aquatic paradise, which we know is coming July 6th through July 9th, that's the first event inbound from ultra space. We know the UBS are coming 13th and 14th Global Go Fest 17th. Oh, now here's what's interesting. It's a three part ultra unlock. So July 17th July 25th July 27th is when the ultra unlocks kickoff part one, part two, part three. They're called better together. Strength of steel and mega raid day. Obviously, the mega raid day will be, I guess, allowing us to unlock stuff for, I don't know, I don't know what they're going to do here. You think this is going to be a new mega? I would think so. To get people excited. Yeah, you would want there hasn't, there hasn't been, you know, mega Heracross seems like it was a year ago. It wasn't mega Deontae. Well, I don't know. I don't know what we'll see. But a lot of events. But of course, this is all about if you're in the States, if you're on the East Coast, it's all about Go Fest New York City happening next week. I can't believe it's next week. It's wild that it's already here. I literally don't even like, it doesn't even register that it is. Yeah. And then Global Go Fest. All right, we've been on for about 35 minutes. Let's take a break. When we come back, we've got to continue this fast pace of getting through a ton of news. We'll talk about why is it going to be so nice. We'll talk about tying them over a second. The backgrounds. We've got the Ultra Beasts, all that stuff. There's a lot. There's a lot to play Pokemon stuff. So we're going to rip through it. But for audio listeners, we're going to take a quick break. We'll be back right after this. [MUSIC] Adam and Adam started off, and we're back. We're back, folks. Yeah, we're back. Welcome back. Great. Thank you so much for that. I drank some water, so I would. I also have been drinking a little bit more water. That's great. That's good. We want to take a quick second to recognize some of our patrons, thanks to our gym leaders, Ben, DJ Wonderbread, GK, Hall to Counselor, Joseph, Kimberly, Mythical Hitch and Nogandude, shout out to our newest patron, Madeline. Thank you so much for joining. We appreciate it. A special thanks to our executive producer, Paul Bott, as well as the other executive producers on the network, Tish Smith and Kate the Cons, and make sure you check out PokemonProfessor.com, where you can grab some merch, check out all the other shows, get links, everything, leave us reviews. Everything's up there on PokemonProfessor.com. All right, we got to get back into it, and we're going to kind of go through this quickly because this event will actually be on when we record our next episode. And that's Aquatic Paradise, and we have Ducklet as the featured Pokemon here. It says, "Enjoy an Aquatic Paradise featuring Pokemon from Pokemon Gofest 2024 in New York. Wild Encounters." Now, let me know what you think of this line up here. Horsey, Star U, Wingull, Corfish, Clampearl, Ducklet, Frillish, with Shiny Ducklet being released for the first time. So, to me, Clampearl, Ducklet, Frillish is what I'm going after. Do you care at all about like Horsey or Star U? Like, are these... Well, Star U is still a beautiful shiny. That is a good shiny. Corfish is a beautiful shiny. I'm okay with it. I like it. It's water-based. You know what? Now that I look... Yeah, I guess you're right. I mean, it stinks that we don't have images because it would be like, "Oh, clearly, it's a great event." Dude, why did that stop? Why did that stop? I don't know. It's because they can... They just... Listing it makes it look like there's more. It makes it look like there's way less. Incense encounters, Shelder, Lapras, Phineon, and Frillish from Incense. Lapras from Incense. That's a good one. That's a good one. Tish will love that. Yes. Shout the Tish Smith. Lapras is always a fun catch. Lapras on the street tree. That's a great shiny. Is it a good one? Yeah. Shelder, you get the extra stardust, so... This is true. This is true. Yeah, good call there. There will be a collection challenge. There will be double catch XP, increased chance of encountering event Pokemon from Incense. So, I'd imagine that, like, there will be a lot of Lapras, like, let's hope. And Incense exclusive Pokemon appearances. So, again, Lapras will not be spawning outside of Incense. So, if you're going through the event, you're like, "Where the hell's all the Lapras?" They're only attracted to Incense. Hopefully, if the collection challenge requires a Lapras, hopefully, feel free, like, some sort of researcher, like, they'll give us a way to, you know, like, catch 10 Water Pokemon and get a Incense. It's funny you say that, because there is timed research that does give Incense. However, it's not free. Okay, just... Two dollar paid time research, $1.99, and getting counters. Let me grab my wallet. Four lucky eggs, two Incense timed research here. So, yeah, I'm... The 20 Ducklet Candy is what got me. That's what's so... I'm kind of with you here. There should have been a free timed research that gave you an Incense. Right? And this is Encounters with Ducklet. But how many... There should have been free timed research that gave you an Incense. Yeah, at least one. Just one. It's not asking for much. And it's like, like, what's the worst that's going to happen? The player base is going to have 30 minutes of fun gameplay over the course of a six-day event. You know, it's not like you're influencing their whole event or changing it. Oh, Star You also gives extra dust. Shout to Sipio for bringing that up. Oh, yeah, yeah. Chevy in the Chats has passed on the paid timed research. It's... Yeah, it's really, you know, like, the four lucky eggs and the 20 Ducklet Candy. I mean, that's what does it for a lot of people, but... It'd be funny if they were, like, five Ultra Balls. I don't understand the candy, though. Like, it's part of... That Pokemon is part of the event. You're going to catch it. You can just use the pineapple. I don't know. All right, let's... We're going to take two seconds on this. Tynemo is announced as... Okay, and that's community day. All right, let's get ready to catch Pokemon in the special backgrounds. So, Electros will know Volt Switch. This is pretty... This is pretty interesting. I know I was watching some trainer rim content. Shout to trainer rim, you know, is looking forward to this. So, the PvP side of things, this might be a little bit of a shakeup. There will be the dollar story, all the usual bonuses, but it's quarter hatch distance and double catch candy. So, I was never a fan of the quarter hatch distance on community day because outside of, like, the initial dump of eggs, it's like you're only benefiting from two-case, but the fact that they're pairing it with two-times catch candy, justified. I'm liking it. Three-hour lures and incense, snapshot, surprise, additional, special trade, 50% less, start us, all the normal stuff. There will be electric, e-electric, four-star raids, you know, that deal on that. Time research, field research, showcases, web store, community day box, event bundles, and stickers, of course. They do link to the community ambassador and league meetup map. So, make sure you check that out if you want to play with some people in person. Shout out to Hamtaro as the pokeball turns, hosting a meetup in Texas for Community Day Classic Cyndaquil. Over 200 people showed up. Wow. Absolutely awesome. That's awesome. Dude, he's doing big things, doing big things, love it, absolutely love it. Love to see it, absolutely love to see it. All right, let's start getting into the meat and potatoes here of some of this Gofest stuff. And this was a pretty cool announcement, and I think that this could be something that they can do pretty consistently with the release of Cool Pokemon. It says, "Get ready to catch Pokemon with special backgrounds debuting ahead of Pokemon Gofest 2024 Global." And it shows Sololao, Lunala, and Necrozma all with Necrozma. It's got a wormhole, Lunala's got a moon, Sololao's got a sun, like it's really nice. That is really cool though. And it says, "Special backgrounds debut after catching certain Pokemon during certain events. Trainers will have a chance to receive special backgrounds no matter where they are playing from." So, it takes the, you have to be in Las Vegas, or you have to be in New York City to get those catch cards. Now, it doesn't matter. You're not getting a Geo-based catch card location card. You're just getting a special background to a kind of memory. An epic background. Yeah. So, it's pretty cool. Now, when you trade, did they hold on to that background? So, I don't know about these, but with the catch cards from locations, they re-roll. So, you could trade something that, and correct me if I'm wrong, chat, but you can trade a non-catch card Pokemon to someone that was caught in an area that had the catch card available, and they can get the catch card on the receiving end. I think that that's the way it works. I think it's re-rolled. Okay. There will be special backgrounds during Pokemon Gofest Global. So, Saturday the 13th and Sunday the 14th. So, you'll get those backgrounds there. I think that this is really cool. Maybe they'll do this during, like, the Ultra Beast event or something like that. I don't know. This is the Ultra Beast arrival. Ultra Beast arrival. There's a lot of opportunity here for them to do some really cool stuff to celebrate different events and holidays and stuff like that. So, I don't know. I dig it. I think it's kind of cool. Alright. Ultra Beast are coming back. We just kind of alluded to that. Monday, July 8th through Saturday, July 13th. It says inbound from Ultra Space. Ultra Beast light ahead of Pokemon Go. Gofest 2024 global. So, here's the schedule for the raids. They're all going to be rolling out. We have Guzzlord, the Nilego, then Cellistela Cartana, then Staccata, couple of Ceflon. And then finally, Buzzwell, Ferrimosa, and Zircuitry all regionally broken out. I love this opportunity to do, this makes more sense to me to use remote raid passes and do remote raiding when you're remote raiding for regionally based raids. Yes. 100%. If I'm doing a Cellistela that I know I can't get by going out in person, the only way I can get that is to remote raid. That makes me feel okay and better about using the raid pass. There will be timed research. And here we go. Hallelujah. Say it with me. This is free timed research. Free timed research. Do you see what you get? And counterwise from this? Guacamole. You get encounters with every single. Complete the research task to earn encounters with the following event themed Pokemon. Nilego. Buzzwell. Ferrimosa. Zircuitry. Cellistela. Cartana. Guzzlord. Staccataka. Plus Ceflon. Note, all travies obtained from this time research won't have special backgrounds. But you get... Oh, man. They dug me. They dug me with that one. Oh, come on. Hey, make it exclusive. You want this stuff accessible? Here you go, but you're not going to get the cool background. Event bonuses I want to talk about here and I want to get your hot take. So it says the remote raid pass limit will be increased to 20 from July 8th through July 11th. And then the 12th, which is here, the 12th through the 14th, which is global GoFest. No limit. Okay? So that makes sense. But let's talk about the remote raid thing because if you look on the comments of any Niantic post on Twitter, people are still yapping it up about remote raid passes. They'll be like, "Hey, it's a beautiful day." And then the whole community on Twitter is just like, "Give us cheaper remote raid passes." I mean, I still think that they can be cheaper, but it should have been 150. But do you think that the solution here is no cap or is it the financial thing? Because it doesn't matter if I have the ability to do five remote raids a day or 50 remote raids a day. If there are two bucks a pop, more comfortable. I'm not doing a lot. Yeah. I honestly, I'm at this point in the game, like in my relationship with the game, that it's really hard for me to just buy the remote raid. Like, I have a really hard time going into the shop to get it. It's if I have the coins and I'm like, I have the time, I'll probably do it. But I'm not going out of my way buying extra coins to make it happen. I just, it's always funny to see how people react to the remote raid limit being pulled. Because this is what they wanted, and then it gets pulled, and then they set their sights not on the limit, but then towards the price. For me, it's been the price all along. It's been the price the whole time. I don't need to do more than five remote raids a day. I just don't want to pay ten bucks a day to do five remote raids. I shouldn't have to wait four days of putting Pokemon in chims. Three days was fine. Dude, that's a whole another ball game. I'm just saying. Dude, the hundred coins a day when it was based on that, and the 1480 boxes, and it actually made sense that you could have a self-generating process in the game to be sustainable with consumable items. You don't have that at all anymore. All right. Yeah, I love the free timed research. I love this entire event is going to be really awesome. What if you don't like to raid? But I like it when it's ultra beast and Pokemon I want to raid. You really want the buzz wall. You really want the buzz wall, right? It's like, and no, I want a lot of opportunities. Like you and I specifically had a lot of opportunities to do ultra beast stuff. We went to Los Angeles for the ultra beast incursion. We did so many raids that weekend. We did for sure. So it's like we've had, you know, go fast in New York City. Like we've had so much time to do this stuff. So, or Seattle rather, there's a lot of opportunity here for new trainers to get their hands on it through the timed research. I just think that's important. I think that it's a good look for new trainers to be able to say, I don't have to pay. And I get to take advantage of this. Yeah. And maybe these ones that you get from the research have capabilities to be used in PVP. Yeah. Oh, all right. Good segue to the play Pokemon thing that's going on. Oh, you're welcome. I got to keep it moving. Got to keep it moving. But let's look at this. Participate in Go Fest 2024 celebration events to earn in game rewards such as Necrozma Fusion Energy and more. And that and more is 10 Pokeballs. But ultimately what they're saying is find a local game shop in your area that's going to be hosting officially sanctioned, niantic slash play Pokemon events. And you'll be able to get rewards in game, which is incredibly awesome and which is amazing. Adam and I can both speak that we have had tons of experience over the years with TCG play Pokemon events. So it's really awesome to see niantic and play Pokemon coming together to, I guess, really officially launch Pokemon Go having a presence at the local level and not just, you know, like all the stuff we've seen up to this point has jumped right to the regional level, right? You know, you didn't have to go through the trenches of traveling to local shops to get enough points to qualify, like in the VG or TCG. I hope that's where this is going because that builds a grassroots network of touring and traveling battles, which, you know, that's such a cool thing as a parent, like being able to do that for my son, like travel to different places to play. And you know, even Adam, you as an adult, like being able to like go all over the place like you were traveling for so long doing it. It's like if Pokemon go can get their stamp on it, this could be really cool. Yeah, I think it from real quick, shout to Steve from the super effective. I saw him bring up a great, great post here. He mentioned how this may have some struggles because with something like a league event for TCG or like Friday night magic or something like that, that these places are going to be hosting, the people that go there are purchasing packs. They're purchasing stuff at the store. They're purchasing supplies. When you go there for Pokemon go, you're not buying anything from the store. You don't need anything from the store to buy. So that's where the refreshments and the snacks kick in. But the refreshments are being sold to the magic players and the TC, Pokemon TCG players anyway, on top of the sales of product and they, I know that you had that you were dealing with like a super stingy local game shop that wouldn't even give you like the full packs when you did like a pre-release or something like that. Yeah, that's not my local one. That was a couple of towns over just to be clear. It was Jetpack's the good one, right? Jetpack is the good one. All right, good. Shout to Jetpack. But no, I've seen a lot of stores that'll like, you know, you buy into the event and then they give you that in store credit and then you could use that to buy more. It's like this, you know, feeding the local, you know, ecosystem economy, there's ways to do it. But with Pico, what are they buying? How does this benefit the local game shop? So I don't know if they're going to be subsidized or incentivized by TPC or by play Pokemon. I don't know. I just, I struggle to see this doing well at the store level unless communities are like overflowing the stores because otherwise what's the incentive to the shopkeeper to do this? So we'll have to see how it goes. But starting July 1st on the campfire map, you will be able to look up places that are hosting these events, which is really cool. But you'll be able to check into the event when they have these Pico events at local game shops or whoever's hosting and you get a hundred lunar fusion energy, a hundred solar fusion energy, a star piece and 10 Pokeballs. Hey, so it's incentivizing people to at least show up. I've gotten a game stop for a cheesy TCG promo card that was worth nothing. I just wanted it, right? Well, now it's probably worth like six or seven dollars, you know, but but still, at least the player has incentive to get through to go through the doors. You know what I mean? Yeah. I just don't know how this is going to work with the shopkeepers and how this can be sustainable. So this will be real. It's really awesome to see. Let's just hope that it can have the legs that it'll need to kind of say, stay sustained and all that. So because I'm not, I'm not terribly confident. I'm not terribly confident that well, you never know, just going to, you know, hold them. Take a picture. That the shop shopkeeper is going to be like, Hey, this is great. I want to put my resources and my staff towards entertaining people that aren't buying from me. So it's a big ask, it's a big ask. All right. Here's the map real quick. We're going to post this on our social stories and stuff like that. So you have it, but Nancy put out a blog post plan, your travel for Pokemon Gofest 2024 in New York City. It talks about the ferry, the train, the subways, all that stuff, ride share, walking paths, all that. But the real important thing here is the Gofest map. And we haven't pulled up on screen for the video viewers, but you see the RFK bridge here where you can walk over and then you have the south entrance here where you can walk over. That's where we were walking in from our hotel. It's like at 103rd Avenue or something like that. You walk in past the, it's the south entrance. You walk past like the stadium area that's closed off. But for the most part, it looks like it's following a very, very similar format. It kind of wraps up towards the Bronx a little bit more, I think, than last year. But save this map. This map is going to be priceless. I felt so turned around all through New York, Gofest last last time in the park experience. I was like, where am I? How do I get? Yeah, even going through, I was looking for little signs on the ground. Yeah, Central Park was, even though like we were, we were weaved in and out. I thought I had more direction there than I did walking around Randall's Island and like seeing one of the set pieces and I'll be like, how are we just seeing this now? We've been here for three days. That's like, yeah, it was spread out. It was so spread out. What I know is they better have those mozzarella stick food truck, because that was the bomb last year. I'm sure they really, some really good like $14 mozzarella sticks. Hey, it's tag word. Listen, remember Chicago? Those mozzarella sticks, they came in my Facebook memories the other day from that place. But lured up, we are excited to do our New York state of grind part two. Like the door dash on Saturday, maybe on Saturday, July six, we did this last year and it was absolutely amazing. We had tons and tons of people trekking through Manhattan, it was great. This year, we're going to be doing the same thing, but we're going to be going from Randall's Island to Rockefeller Plaza to Nintendo, New York City. It is a five mile grind. We're going to be going down straight down Fifth Avenue all the way down along Central Park. We're not going to weave through Central Park. Along Central Park, straight all the way down to Rockefeller Plaza, ending up at Nintendo New York City. It's going to be a lot of fun and we got some other stuff going on here too. Real quick, our meet and greet will be 10 a.m. the 12 p.m. each day, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Come say hi. Say hi. Don't be shy. The meet and greet 10 is at the northern part of the park. If I pull up the map again, it's right up here. If you coming across the RFK bridge, it's pretty much at the top of the island, the top left of the island. So definitely come see us. We're giving away a Go Plus Plus every single day. So you stop by from 10 to 12. You get a raffle ticket at 1230. We're going to be pulling the raffle ticket, posting it on social media, DMS, find us in New York City. I'll hand you a Go Plus Plus. We have them in hand. We're going to be giving them out to the winners during the weekend. So it can only win one, one per person, but Friday, Saturday, Sunday, come see us, grab a raffle ticket. It's going to be awesome. New York City. My mom's like, can you get me a raffle ticket? Well, I'm like, Bob, you need to show up friends and family are not eligible to win. Yeah, that's the last thing any of my son will win one and be like, it's like, finally, I got one. You haven't got me one before you Saturday, July 6th at 1 p.m. is our New York state of grind. And we already started announcing some peeps. So if we go over to luwardup.com, you can see, Hey, there's me and Adam. We're excited to have some New Yorkers that are will be joining us. Our first announcement was Dandy and the Bronx who will be joining us. He's a live streamer is also a fashion flogger and he is as dandy as they get. Let me tell you, he's he is a sharp, sharp dressed man. It's very very inspiring to see his his outfits. He does does it real well. We also have New York City legend Omni sec is going to be joining us Omni is the best. I've been doing events with Omni for years. And he's one of the OGs, you know, he's kind of grandpa core like me, you know, we got the old band thing going on. It's always good to see some of the older folks still making it happen, having fun, staying young, playing Pokemon, hitting the pavement every day. So really excited to always be with Omni sec in the Omni squad. Shout to trainer spooky, shout to kooie kooie. It's just always a good time with the New York crew. Always good time. Of course, Jamal and Chris from the way spotters will be with us. So maybe they'll even see some nominations that will be like they're like they go like maybe nominated these things believe me. I'm glad the other day had Randall's Island pulled up and he's like, I think I found a sign or something that like wasn't like he's like, I think I can get this through. Yeah, if there's any wind that can add, you know, stops in an already congested area, it's going to be these two. So very excited to have the way spotters with us during the New York state of grind. Make sure you check that out. Of course, Justin Keller from Special Conditions will be there as well. Adam's partner in crime. So it's always good to have Justin there. And that's that's all we have announced. And every day to the event, we'll be adding people to this list and we have some pretty fun announcements still coming, especially if you're fans of Pokemon podcasts. We can't wait to see everyone in New York City. Holy guacamole, Adam, that was a lot of info. That was a lot of fat, a lot of speed talking. I apologize. I was going a mile a minute, but we just had so much to cover. Man, this, this year did such a good job on this website. Like I'm pretty, I'm pretty happy with the, yeah, no, it looks really good. It feels good. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. I like it. I'm really excited. And you know, I'm excited that you're saying every day we got something new coming out. Yeah. Yeah. It's, there's, there'll be some, a good announcement tomorrow. Yeah. We have, we got a lot going on. And you know, I'm trying to do it a little different. I'm trying to make a splash with, with how podcasts can kind of approach content and, you know, the community. And, you know, we have to get creative as podcasters because, you know, the, the reach, the volume is not as high as some other platforms. So we got to, got to make some magic happen. So yeah, it's good to, you know, the flex, you know, in my, my nine to five job, I work in social media marketing, digital marketing for, for multiple companies. And it's fun to be able to, you know, use some of the tools and the design work and stuff like that to put together some cool graphics. And I'm super hyped with, with how these graphics came out. So check out luwardup.com for all the details on the New York state of grind. There also is a campfire event for each day that we're going to be in the meet and greet and there's a campfire event for the New York state of grind. New York state of grind is going to be one PM. We're meeting up at the Randall's Island side of the RFK bridge. So right where you would walk onto the RFK bridge, RFK bridge has, you know, a walking area. So right on the Randall's Island side where you would walk up onto the RFK bridge, that's where we're going to meet at one o'clock. We'll all walk over the bridge together. That's what we did last year. And you know, we'll be picking up people and meeting people all the way. We'll walk through Spanish Harlem down to 5th Avenue, make a left and then straight down 5th after Rockefeller Plaza, there's a little picture of the map on luwardup.com as well. But Adam, I think that was, that was quite the show, man. That was a lot of info. Is there anything else? A lot of info. Um, I don't think so. The top of the months are always crazy, you know, and going in the go fast, it's more crazy or so. And I just wanted to send a, you know, sincere, you know, apology to the discord. I have not been on the zoom call the past couple of weeks. It's been crazy. I am now in the summer season. So my whole schedule is literally up down, thrown around and luckily I had today off to be able to record. I had last night available, but I think plans changed and now we're recording today. Still looking into buying a new house, trying to pack things and get things situated. So it's, uh, everything's hectic for me right now. And, uh, look, we're, I think we're appreciate everyone. We're both like the epitome of, uh, part time creators, you know what I mean? And, uh, it, it makes life very difficult juggling a family and you know, we both have a kid and, you know, I just moved, you're looking to move and, you know, your job is super busy. My job has been super busy. It's like, it really is a challenge and, you know, shout out to all the other creators that are involved with the network that are also in the same position. We are aware that, you know, they're working full time and they're creating, you know, creating part time, but we're putting out results like if we were creating full time, that's, that's like what we're, what we're trying to achieve here. That's why the Patreon is so important to us because it allows us to do fun stuff like that. Yes. Have the tools to have the software to make cool graphics and, and do good content, uh, because we are part timers and, you know, uh, it's, it's funny because, you know, unless you're Joe Rogan, you don't, you don't get into podcasting to make money, you know what I mean? So it's like, yeah, creative. Uh, and that's where that's where we really appreciate our, our Patreon community because they're literally leaving the lights on for us. So it's, it's been great. It's been great. Uh, but, uh, thank you to everybody who, uh, stuck around this far. We had our largest audience ever on the live stream, 137 people concurrent. Thank you so much for that across our different channels. Uh, make sure if you're listening to the audio version of this and you want to check out the video, head over to our YouTube. We'll have the VOD up there in a couple of days. And same thing. If you're at least watching the live stream or you missed part of the show, the audio version will always be there for you to check out as well. It will always be there. If there's nothing else, I think that was a show. I think that's a show. Keep training trainers. Thank you so much. It's go first week. All right. Let's get horses. Dude. I'm so, so excited. Yeah. We're going to figure out what we're going to do for next week's show. I know that I'll, I'll be on the bus with Casa DeCubo. Yeah. I know I'll be traveling and stuff like that, but it'll be, it'll be fine. It's like, it's so funny for me, like if I wanted to, I could come home every night. It's like. Yeah. And I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll bring in some glow sticks. I don't know what we're planning for Thursday night, but I'm sure it won't be small. Shenan. Shenan agree. It'll be, it'll be a small group of trainers, but we will, we'll have one. All right, everyone. Thank you so much for checking this out. Keep training trainers. Thank you again. Have a good evening.
