The activation of the 7G Network was supposed to catapult Japan into the future. Instead, it left reality stretched and broken outside of one specific train line leading to source of the disaster. When a trio of girls learn that one of their friends may still be alive near the end of the line, they embark on a journey through increasingly bizarre stations to reunite with her, confronting weirdness at every turn. The Con Artists have some thoughts on whether the promise of the show holds up over its length.

S2E9 Gotta Catch ’Em All (Dragon Type Pokémon)
It's the 25th Anniversary of Pokémon, can you believe it?! I've brought in Resident Pokémon Expert, Chris to podcast with me again! In honor of this exciting milestone and it being a Year of the Dragon on the Chinese Zodiac, we've decided to talk about one of the coolest types of Pokémon: Dragon Type! What's up with Dragon-Types being weak to themselves? Why does that one dragon come out of an apple?! How the heck is best boy Charizard NOT a dragon unless he's in X-form? Most importantly, have you gone to Sephora and become glamorous enough to BECOME A DRAGON?!
Also, I forgot to mention it in audio, but thank you to https://www.smogon.com/dex/ for answers to items 2-6 mentioned in the Checkpoint.

In its obsessive search for the secret of immortality, the shogunate government sends a party of convicted criminals to a mysterious and deadly island to claim the Elixir of Life. To ensure that they complete their mission, these rogues are each accompanied by an elite executioner, ordered to eliminate them the moment they step out of line. Among these assorted killers are the near-immortal assassin Gabimaru, and the swordswoman Sagiri of the Asaemon. They will need to navigate an island filled with lethal dangers and alien beings, while also keeping an wary eye on their fellow convicts and executioners.
