This past weekend "Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl" was released with much acclaim and fanfare! It is a video game on the Nintendo Switch gaming system and a re-make of the 2006 Nintendo DS role-playing game.

If so, never fear, our resident pop culture/youth beat expert Hezekiah "Zeke" Jones is here to help you out! Zeke will explain what Pokémon is, the basic story of the franchise (which are not just games, but best-selling television shows, movies, and comic books), what attracts people to Pokémon, where it is going, & his very strong, dry, and sarcastic critiques.
