Best Gen 1 Pokemon
The adorable pocket monsters of Pokemon have been super effective at delighting us ever since they first debuted in 1996. Maybe you had the trading card game. Maybe you played the GameBoy game. Maybe you watched the cartoon or movie. Maybe you didn't know anything about them until you got into Pokemon Go. Now, more than 30 years later, the Great Pop Culture Debate podcast wants to determine: what IS the Best Generation 1 Pokemon? Pokemon discussed: Eevee, Jolteon, Vaporeon, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Dragonite, Snorlax, Jigglypuff, Mew, Gengar, Psyduck, Mewtwo, Pikachu, Flareon, Charmander, Cubone.
Join host Eric Rezsnyak and panelists Bob Erlenback, Curtis Creekmore, and special guest Brayden Rezsnyak as they battle it out to name the champion of the original 151.
