About this episode
Episode Notes Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! On this week's episode, Ben Hanson and Kyle Hilliard are joined by Sarah Podzorski (@sarahpodz), Kelsey Lewin from the Video Game History Foundation (@kelslewin), and Nikole Zivalich (@nikolez) to celebrate all things Pokémon. We unpack the news that Game Freak is making a Breath of the Wild-inspired game called Pokémon Legends: Arceus, share our favorite underrated entries from the series' history, and more. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!
