Lysandre gives you too much of a choice in our ninth playthrough of Pokémon X and Y, up to the Ice-type eight gym badge.

Watch the entire live episode off of their YouTube channel below!

Shownotes:

-Why did Lysandre give away his evil plan to all of the world’s trainers so readily?

-“Today, our special is… get out of here or else!”

-Yay for the return of spinny panels!

-Okay. So just how much of the world’s population died 3,000 years ago, exactly?

-We go WAY in depth into AZ’s story.

-Why does Lysandre even bother giving you the option to stop his hard thought-out plans?

-Mitch saved so he could test out what pressing both buttons did.

-Shauna finally uses the puzzle solving device that Clemont gave her. Ship confirmed.

-We LOVED the reaction scene when the Legendary was released.

-Arceus was giving us the choice to add the Legendary from your Box to your Party.

-During Lysandre’s final battle with you, his outfit isn’t even his final form.

-Um. How did we all survive that explosion?

-Those were railroad tracks of hell! What poor dungeon design.

-???Inverse battles???

-Sycamore’s gift to you isn’t really a gift.

-Because it really makes sense to have intense Pokémon battles ontop of a wooden bridge.

-No wait please TAKE THAT WATERFALL TM BACK–

-It took a lot of guesswork to meander through those Lost–er I mean, “Winding Woods.”

-The Snowbell City Gym’s puzzle was a piece of cake for master trainers like Mitch!

-Wulfric’s Cryogonal underwhelmed us.

-News includes announcements of the Origins English dub releases!
