10 tips & tricks in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl that you didn't know! I found 10 things that most people are shocked by when I do these on my Twitch stream. These are 10 tips in the Pokemon games that are not explained to you in anyway. There is no guide or NPC who tells you these Pokemon tips while playing through the games, so I hope you find these helpful!

Hello!
Check your e-mails for the Winter Break music! It will not have come from me or Patreon, but Nick's Bandcamp page directly. If you have any issues with the music, please let me know via DM on here, Discord, or Slack for me to get it fixed.
With Legends around the corner, expect more cool stuff to come via Patreon!
Thank you as always for your support, happy 2022!

Moving
Irene and I are moving from WI to MN on October 30th! Things might be a little hectic for the next couple weeks as we pack and then unpack, so if I miss messages or don't get back to you, it's probably because of that. Feel free to follow up and bug me if that's the case, I will try to get back to everyone ASAP during this time.

Hey all!
I don't normally share my YouTube videos here, but we talked about this on the podcast and I figured you'd like to know that this one is live. I spent 45 mins talking about this live on stream and then 2 hours to edit it down to be cohesive in 18 minutes! I really hope you enjoy!

Hello!
Just a quick update! Shirts should be arriving to me on Thursday! Once they show up, we can start packing them and getting them out to all of you! I'll probably stream the packing process when that time comes, but I was told the shirts themselves turned out amazing!
Another group recording podcast will be scheduled later this week, so keep your eyes peeled for those at that reward level.
Thank you so much for the support!
Talk soon!

Shirt Update
Shirt sizes have been ordered. I did order 2 extra of each shirt incase of wrong sizes or if something gets lost in the mail. I ordered these shirts at a local Milwaukee company, and I'll be packing them myself once they arrived. I was told this morning it will be 2-3 weeks for them to be complete (this includes them ordering shirts + screen printing them). I'll keep you updated when we get closer to completion.

Hello! This is going to be one of the biggest updates to our Patreon page, and to be honest, I am slightly worried about making some changes. That being said, I think it’s the right thing for growth for both the Patreon and for our content in general. As always, I like to be as transparent as possible with changes I make in regards to anything that involves money, especially your money.
About 3 years ago I was offered an ad deal to make $2,000 a month by running two t...

Tonight we are going to try to raise $3,000 for WWF Charity! It's a big ask, and I am worried we may not hit it, but we've raised over $3,000 for Starlight last summer and $11,000 for Color of Change last summer too.
To help get us to our goal and to celebrate the release of Battle Styles, we'll be doing a Charity Break Box. For any donation $28 or more, you'll get a pack in the break. I'll open it and send it to you, cards and all, for your donation to a good cause!

I take a lot of pride in making sure the audio version of the podcast is cleaned up, sounds great, and respects your time! You all have been asking for an "uncut version" and so to celebrate Pokémon 25, I put an uncut version of Episode 450 on YouTube WITH VIDEO! You can see Greg, Will, and I argue about 60 seconds of game footage.
