This one ended up bigger than expected!

You folks voted for this episode to come next, and now it's finally ready. This is my first crack at a retrospective format, and I like how it turned out! That said, I am definitely ready to NOT stare at Pokemon footage for a while. :P

Also, this is likely to be a VERY ADVANCED screening, because I plan to hold off on publically releasing this episode until JoCat has finished editing his own video so we can launch them simultaneously. Fortunately, I've already got the next episode written and recorded, so the gap between this episode and the next should be much shorter!

Enjoy this very early screening of the Pokemon episode!

You did a great job and I am looking forward to being able to share this one around. I think one of the things I have always appreciated about your animation videos is that you understand both the art and business of animation and can express that in an understandable way. Also, did you name your rival after the loud cars outside your home?

I know it’s been a bit since this video but I was just reading this article and it made me think about some of what you said about the effort needed to manage an ever growing roster https://www.polygon.com/e3/2019/6/13/18677717/pokemon-sword-shield-national-dex-pokedex-galar-e3-2019
