Raid Battles made the jump from Pokémon’s Generation VIII (Sword and Shield) to Generation IX (Scarlet and Violet). While similar, the big difference this time around is the Terastal phenomenon, where Pokémon’s type can change to one of the 18 different types available in-game. Not to mention, Pokémon will receive…
The holiday season is now just a few months away, and to many that leaves a lot to look forward to. With a vast assortment of highly-anticipated game releases just around the corner, the wait can feel almost agonizing. A good way to make that wait feel shorter is to…

Pokémon has done many a collaboration with Build-A-Bear Workshop at this point, with plush Pokés ranging from Pikachu to Eevee to Gengar. But there has been a slight deficiency in all this — I mean, it’s Build-A-Bear. Not Build-A-Mouse or Build-A-Lizard or whatever. Fortunately, they’re rectifying this most egregious mistake,…
