Wildcat and Blind have been left to carry the show like the responsible adults they pretend to be. They break down Pato's latest regional heist, a Pidgeot sighting in top cut, and the World Cup straight up evicting GoFest from half of Chicago. Then they survive an avalanche of listener questions.

The boys are back with a light news week, so naturally they spend half the open debating whether Hoosier was right to wait 18 years to watch Transformers. Recharge locking in a Worlds invite, Go Fest Global going free with a 12-shield Mega Mewtwo waiting for you, and the crew somehow blanks on a Pokemon in a grass-type trivia round!

The Seville Regional is in the books, and the Corviknight era has officially arrived -- top cut usage jumped to 75% in day two while Wigglytuff fell off and Piloswine came out of absolutely nowhere to shake up the meta. The crew breaks down all of it, then pivots to the incoming Maelstrom Cup for April, which is essentially a full blacklist of every Pokemon you're tired of seeing (spoiler: it's a lot of them). GBL leaderboards are ...
