Poképia Reaction

Join the PokéSphere crew for a raw, live reaction to the extended trailer for Poképia! 🌍🧱

While X and Sonryu have already seen the footage, Draco goes in blind to experience the "Mad Max of the Pokémon world" for the first time. In this episode, we break down the new "blocky" aesthetic, the strange new Pokémon forms (Tangle Growth with a CD?), and the surprising customization options for Ditto.

But it’s not all sunshine in this square world. The crew gets heated over the newly announced release format: a $70 price tag for a "Game Key" code-in-a-box with no physical cartridge. Is this the future of Nintendo releases, or a massive swing and a miss?

In this video:

📺 Live Reaction: Draco sees the "Minecraft-style" graphics for the first time.

🤔 Analysis: Is this a convergent form or just a costume?

💸 ** The Controversy:** The debate over the $70 "Game Key" exclusive format.

🎮 Final Verdicts: Who is buying the Switch 2 for this, and who is giving it a "Hard Pass"?

❓ Question of the Day: Is a "code in a box" a dealbreaker for you at $70? Let us know in the comments!
