- Love it but…
I am really enjoying the podcast. I just wish that the transcripts were available for all the past episodes and not just the recent ones. If there was a way to make it possible that would be helpful. Other than that keep on going through the never ending Pokédex!

Apple Podcasts5jackmitchyUnited Kingdom5 years ago - Pokémon’s youthful imagination crashes into the wall of adult rationality.
I haven’t played a game since Silver, Pokémon wasn’t a huge thing for me, but of course it colors my childhood and experience. But you don’t need to be a fan to enjoy this extremely witty podcast! Beyond the Ball takes a deep dive into the semantic construction of the few trivial facts we have on Pokémon to construct a realistic image of an impossible creature. Very entertaining.
