Chikorita's Big Upset

Gotta Watch’em All Podcast Recording Date: 2/9/2026 Publish Date: 2/14/2026 Watch the video version of this podcast at: http://patreon.com/pokemonprofessor Last week we saw Ash and the party run into another sidewinder of a story arc, on their way to Azalea Town. When the group is feeling parched they stumbled across a water pipe to drink from, where they meet Sonrisa, who fills their canteens and leads them to Bloomingvale. Once in town we learn about the Sunflora Festival and how the town specializes in Training them. The festival shows us many Sunflora which of course attracted Team Rocket, who disguise Meowth and enter him into the contest. This led to us seeing a different side of Meowth, but not before an all out battle and an appearance from the famous Meowth Balloon. We also had an appearance with Madame Muchmoney’s Snubble, who almost seems like a walking easter egg at this point. We will have to see if today’s episode actually results in the party making it to Azalea town! Let’s jump in!
