Is Pokémon Pay to Win
Two players got banned at the Liverpool tournament this past weekend for using cloned Pokémon on their teams.

Paldean Fates, the newest Shiny TCG set, has arrived. The Pikachu Van Gogh situation gets another update. Pokémon GO makes some good quality of life changes. 00:00:20 - Introduction 00:02:00 - Cheating in VGC 00:41:00 - Break00:42:45 - Paldean Fates Released01:02:00 - Van Gogh Drama01:15:00 - Pokémon GO Improvements01:43:30 - Post Credits Ad this episode was by Avatar: Braving the Elements.
