<p>Our resident Pokemon expert Will, (the only one of us that consistently plays all the pokemon games) weighs in on the controversial new entry into the mainline Pokemon series. &nbsp;You've no doubt seem some of the memes, screencaps and videos from it, but is that really representative of the game as a whole?</p>

A do-it-yourself podcast out of Binghamton, New York, Thumbstick Athletes approaches video games from the perspective of consumers, not journalists. Host Dan is joined by his brothers, Corey and Will, and lifetime friend, Eric.

Together, they navigate the world of games, the gamers, the makers and the culture surrounding them, including all-nighters and playing hooky.

Join the Athletes weekly for spirited conversation piped across the world, all from the comfort of Dan's basement.
