Toothless dancing to Pokémon Black and White is everything I needed this holiday season

With the seven-star Blaziken Tera raids finished, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet revealed a new five-star Tera raid against two Paradox Pokemon to tide trainers over. Flutter Mane and Iron Jugulis will respectively be available for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players to face, and each will bring their share of attacks to the fold.

The black-and-white version of, Godzilla Minus One Minus Color, is coming to United States theaters later this month.

Often we come to you with these TV dispatches with a focus on the biggest premieres of the week — which we are now doing again. But this week also sees a whole host of finales, all of big shows that started in the tail end of 2023. While none of these three shows made our top 50 of the year, they’re all pretty big in their own way.

With the release of the Epilogue of The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players can claim a free item by entering a Mystery Gift code. This new item, the Neo Kitakami Case for the Rotom Phone, will be available to all Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players for an indefinite amount of time.

Though Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's epilogue event didn't reveal much in terms of lore, a video separate from the games themselves explores the full story behind the new mythical Pokemon introduced in the Mochi Madness event. Fans of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will need to own the Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC if they want to obtain the mythical Pecharunt for themselves, though the event to encounter it requires players to redeem the Mythical Pecha Berry mystery gift first.

A Pokemon Scarlet and Violet player took to social media to share a coordinated strategy that gave trainers the means to take down Blaziken the Unrivaled in one hit with a Magikarp. Though this version of Blaziken is a formidable foe in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, the trainer's intricate strategy did not go unnoticed, as others took note of what to do.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players have recently discovered a new item duplication glitch that apparently came in The Indigo Disk DLC. The glitch is done in the Terarium and takes a bit of work to set up, but definitely works until the developers inevitably patch it. This is the latest of many item duplication glitches in games like Pokemon and The Legend of Zelda, but this one seems pretty «fair» compared to the rest.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet arrived a little less than half-baked and buggier than any of the franchise’s previous mainline entries. But for all of the glitches, frame rate dropping, and straight-up crashes that plagued players as they first began exploring the Paldea Region, the promise of new DLC content gave many hope that the games would get some much-needed polish in due time.

The next games should finally reveal the fate of one popular character. The Generation 10 games offer a perfect opportunity to tie up loose ends from previous games, bringing a conclusion to stories that have so far gone unfinished. One particular character’s personal story has tragically had no resolution so far, which has given one entry in the franchise a slight sense of lingering disappointment.

Pokemon GO has revealed new Pokemon GO Tour 2024 details, with the debut of a White-Striped Basculin and new shinies. The Pokemon GO Tour is a much-anticipated event for Pokemon GO players, and this year is extra special for Pokemon Diamond and Pearl fans.
