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! You can win a prize and help make the show better by supporting us on Patreon and leaving a question! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax
