pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Got a few upcoming livestreams you should know about. First, next Saturday (17th) at 8PM Central I’ll be discussing the music of New Pokémon Snap with Anne from Pikapi Podcast: www.youtube.com/live/RrSW6D1...youtube.comDiscussing the Music of "New Pokemon Snap" w/Pikapi PodcastYouTube video by pokepress 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Polls like these are better at generating discussion than any sort of authoritative list, but I figured I’d include a link to this poll by @cinsoundradio.bsky.social : www.cinematicsound.net/100-greatest... do you have a favorite tv, movie, or video game score?cinematicsound.net100 GREATEST SOUNDTRACKS OF ALL TIME - Cinematic Sound Radio Podcast100 GREATEST SOUNDTRACKS OF ALL TIME SURVEY What do YOU think is the greatest soundtrack of all time?

pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Not as interesting to talk about as the first movie, but I think it’s the better film. Definitely more even. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Most of the modern releases don’t include the shorts, for whatever reason. 010
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 26/09/2026There are of course, many great sports movies out there, but in recent years they have tried to show Pokemon as more of a functional world. If I were asked to pitch something, I would try to include elements like that, even if the main character is a Gym Leader or such. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 26/09/2026As far as not doing a mainline adaptation, in the 2010s they had already done Origins and I Choose You, so a third such project may have been something they wanted to avoid anyway. Going with Detective Pikachu also allows the movie to fit into an established genre outside of “sports”. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Well, technically the information we have comes partially through materials that were obtained…dubiously, so consider that how you will. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Sequel has been stuck in rewrites, FWIW. Personally, I wanted/expected them to do stories based on Gym Leaders, Champions, evil teams, etc., but clearly that’s not the direction they’ve taken. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 26/09/2026In the spirit of Forgotten Island, which deals with memories and has “Never Tear Us Apart” by INXS, I figured it was a good time to share my experiences: youtube.com/shorts/04pL3...youtube.comMy INXS (Re) IntroductionYouTube video by pokepress 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Great Pokemon Pokopia mixtape video from the folks at the Pokemon Company: youtube.com/watch?v=N7W-...youtube.com[Official] Pokémon Pokopia Music | 1-Hour Mix to Relax and Study to 💤YouTube video by The Official Pokémon YouTube channel 020
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Most folks’ ideal version of this film is a mix and match between the Japanese and Western versions, with some other changes possibly thrown in. 001
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 20/09/2026It was released in 2000 in the US. Interestingly, because the First Movie was released in early 2000 in some territories, they ended up calling it Pokemon 2. Or were you referring to “The Power of One”. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Was fine. Not a huge reaction-but apparently the crowd was smaller than usual. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Over the last decade, I’ve actually gotten a chance to interview many of the voice actors who worked on the miniseries, like @patrickseitz.bsky.social : youtu.be/dbZkBjrtdCIyoutu.bePatrick Seitz discusses acting in Pokémon Generations, Detective Pikachu, and more!YouTube video by pokepress 010
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Wanted to thank @legaleagle.tv for this great video he did with Rick Beato about the difficulties in doing music content online: youtu.be/M8HxQkk0PSY?...youtu.beI Hired a Lawyer To Fight UMG (Feat. LegalEagle)YouTube video by Rick Beato 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 14/09/2026It’s a nice arrangement of the route theme, a little short, though. 010
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Looks like they chose route 3 & 4 for the music of the Pokémon Sleep Mewtwo event. “Tears of Life” would have been nice, but I can see that being difficult to implement given it’s from a localization of the anime. Technically, Cerulean Cave is on/near route 4, so it kind of works. 120
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I figured they’d do something eventually, though the “2027 and beyond” suggests it’s being released more as a series than a standard movie. 010
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 10/09/2026The only thing keeping it out of the top spot for me is the music isn’t that interesting outside of the opening scene and credits. Still a strong recommendation. 020
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Otherwise, I think this is a pretty good overview. It’s clear that there are some things to improve (even if next year isn’t the full XP slate of events), and I hope Pokemon continues to do so. Having these things live-streamed and discussed is a huge benefit and I hope to see more. 001
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Expectation that you will have to make decisions about what you can/will attend based on your priorities. It may be possible to improve the scheduling, but I don’t think significantly reducing the number of panels (they would have to do that) is the correct approach. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Admittedly, I am someone who goes to these events more for the social aspect than the competitive one, so I’m not as interested in watching the finals anyway (again, all due respect to the players). That said, this event was marketed and run as a convention, and I think that should come with the 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 07/09/2026During the single day I was able to be at the event proper. While I’m sure there’s folks that wanted to observe both, I think removing the decision does more harm than good, and being able to stream the other side helps make up for the schedule conflict. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I have to strongly disagree with your idea that panels should be minimized or eliminated on the final day in favor of watching the finals. With all due respect to the talented competitors, as someone with only a Sunday pass, it would have been extremely disappointing not to attend any panels 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 05/09/2026If you’d like to find out what I did last weekend at Pokemon XP in San Francisco, I’ve got a report written up on my blog here: pokepress.blogspot.com/2026/09/repo...pokepress.blogspot.comReport: Pokémon XP 2026After years of fans treating it as such, the Pokémon company officially recognized that the World Championships also serve as a convention o... 012
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I only need a few of the movies on Blu-ray at this point (8 & 9, I think), so I won’t be picking it up. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Looks like a 24-movie blu-ray collection of Pokémon films was announced. May explain why we haven’t gotten any theatrical events for the 30th anniversary. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 02/09/2026It’ll be interesting to see what if anything they do for the Mewtwo event. It’s more complicated due to the localization and the remake, of course. “Tears of Life” would be neat, though. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Well, for the second year in a row, my flight back to Chicago from Pokémon Worlds has been diverted to Indianapolis. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026US regulations would likely have required it to be changed, much like how art was changed in Yu-Gi-Oh. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Also, does this mean the Pokémon TCG exists within the Pokémon world itself? 241
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Technically, Path to the Peak exists and this seems like a darker version of that. I don’t want to judge it too much based on what little we know, but it still puzzles me that there haven’t been movies centered around some of the existing human characters and their Pokemon. 151
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/20262027 and beyond seems to imply this is more of an episodic series rather than a movie. 030
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Seems like my Worlds scavenger hunt tasks only showed up in Pokémon Go today. While that makes some sense since my spectator pass was for today, in prior years you could work on it for the entire weekend, despite having a one-day pass. #pokemonxp 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026On the flip side, all due respect to the talented competitors, but I had a great time spending my single day at XP. It’s nice that Pokémon is treating this like a convention, like a lot of folks have for 10-15 years. 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 31/08/2026They did have Liko and Roy’s VA’s demonstrate a dubbing workflow, which you could try for yourself at one of the booths. Overall it had less background information than the panel I went to at Honolulu in 2024, but I still liked it. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Had a great time hearing from @laurapostvoice.bsky.social at #pokemonxp just now!

pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Well, time to head over to the Pokémon Center. Can’t be there too early. #pokemonxp 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Really good music discussion going on the #pokemonxp stream from @the8bitbigband.bsky.social 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026As far as Pokopia builds, I created a visually loud house for Toxtricity. #pokemonxp 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Got a fresh sign for intimidate Shinx: #pokemonxp 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Even though I’ve played them a ton, getting to see the pinball machines at #pokemonxp is tons of fun! The reactions from players of all ages is great! 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026In the meantime, this is a great performance by @the8bitbigband.bsky.social ! Loving it! 000
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026If you’re looking for me, today I’ll be wearing my “Michael Hutchence with Intimidate Shinx” cosplay. Wait until the folks at @amoebamusic.bsky.social get a load of me. 100
pokepress.bsky.social @pokepress.bsky.social · 28/08/2026So following the #pokemonxp opening ceremony, I’ll be checking out the Pichu/Sirfetched panel (10 AM PT) and Pokopia panel (1130 AM PT). I’m planning on visiting @amoebamusic.bsky.social before heading to my Pokemon Center appointment this afternoon. 100
