Brittany, Lyla, and Maddison sit down and talk about caves. How do they form? What are their ecosystems like? Does Pokemon get anything right with caves? Well the answer is a little bit of yes and no. Stay tuned for video of this episode to be released at a later date.

I'm sorry for not getting this out sooner. This past month has been quite a bit. We are back! New episodes are on the way! Many announcements to come!!!

The gang's all here to talk about urbanization, deforestation, habitat loss, habitat fragmentation, economic incentives, and how this all is connected together for your local ecosystems. We're going to look at examples of Pokemon losing their homes, and how conservation has worked in the Pokemon world, and what you can do in ours. We will talk about policy and economic solutions to this massive problem and hopefully leave you with the tools you need to save the "Pokemon" in your own backyard. This is going to be our last official episode for the season and we are taking the summer off, minus a few bonus episodes and online events. We'll be recording interviews during that time and returning at the start of the school year with all new content. Stay tuned on social media and discord. You can send in your recordings of our opening sting, "This show is part of the PikaScience podcast. Studying the intersection of gaming and science." and email it to us and it could show up on a future episode: [email protected] Come join us on discord: https://discord.gg/7AJKk7G4q9 This podcast is not licensed or endorsed by Nintendo, Pokémon, Creatures Inc., or GAME FREAK

Maddison finally finds time to sit down with Jillian. They discuss mostly spiders but a little bit of centipedes too.

*Not Suitable for Children* #Trigger Warning, Discussion of Rape in Greek Mythology# Ben and Maddison are back after a pause. This time they are looking at Greek mythology and all of the wonderful monsters in D&D that come from it. We'll look at Gorgons/Medusa, Minotaur, Lamia, eidolon, and Pegasus. Maddison will give some of her most unique tips for DMs wanting to run these creatures in their campaigns. Most importantly we will discuss why Zeus and his brothers are awful and why Hera is truly a monster to every poor woman Zeus took advantage of. Shoutout to Nx2Xero for the new opening sting. You too can record a temporary opening sting for us and send it to [email protected]

Anirudh sits down with Ben and Maddison and teaches us all about Hinduism and India and the connections to Pokemon. We'll look at the Galar connection, some of our favorite mons, and talk about just how diverse one of the world's largest religions truly is.

Lyla and Maddison are back to talk about wolves. Mostly just the three in the games, but a lot to talk about with conservation, definitions, and just understanding the amazing adaptations of the furriest predators. So grab your sword and shield and some dog biscuits for this episode.
