in ancient times, we had to wait 60 seconds for the switch timer and "counter" was everywhere, when lanturn and trevanant were always together, and no one stood up for charjabug, btw was there with da truth! what? there are like 700 other pokemon? no wat. in those dark times of 2022 i found pokemon go and pvp and they helped me have a hobby and a social life online which is a lot considering i quit media in 2016. anyway, so i will never be good at this but i like to at least shame some dudes and win with fun teams. some play to win, i play for guzzlord. but who can accompany my brutal swinging champion and what should i do when i cant guzzlord it up? btw to the rescue with honest and stardust affordable advice. i was inspired to write this because i specifically remember them talking about cradily, ariados, and drapion and how they were secretly good. i thought "what is a cradily?" and i then learned when i saw it in championship teams ... sure enough all of these, and more, later, have been accessible and great on competitive feeds, and also generally i can make some of them and expand my repertoire. don't tell the guzzlord. i like that the picks they suggest are pokemon that people can get and learn the moves of.. useful ones, not "bro shadow palkia based all legacy move team hashtag im og hashtag shundo club." ok, i like having fun and there not judgement here, well, there is but it's definitely the way real world friends rag on one another and it shows. also, as a south carolinian the kentucky accents that may be present sometimes give me a bit of joy. thanks yall.

Listen to this podcast and you’re guaranteed to get good ;)

You guys are amazing at what you do!! I love talking about all aspects of pokemon! I joined the discord about 2 1/2 months ago and I love how involved everyone can be with each other. I’m not the greatest at PvP but you guys are helping me big time and the custom metas are fun no matter what your record is at the end of it. Thanks again for all you guys do and GOOD LUCK AND GET GOOD!

This is Hans down the best show you were going to find for PVP, TCG, and VGC. The boys have a natural rhythm and are obviously familiar with moves, etc. Show can be hilarious and witty, plus it’s family friendly. I’ve been listening for over three years now and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon.

The recent change to having over an hour dedicated to Pokémon cards is rough.

I have been listening to BTW for over a year and during which time my skills have allowed me to reach new heights in my GBL career, while not a legend yet, I can tell my skills are getting there. Love the content and if you haven’t yet check out their discord. Its a great place to talk shop and get feed back on thoughts and strategies. To WildCatDad. Do you really think id forget that you didn’t answer my question?!?!?!? Right here right now you need to answer my question from a month ago. “Each host and Mathew if he's still awake, MUST come up with a new idea to ADD to GBL and a description of how it would work.” Love you all, (except WildCat, I’m on the fence about him) thanks for the top notch show. Keep it up.

It’s not often that outcasts actually deliver on their promises. BTW legitimately honors its. It offers useful strategies, team building tips, and a sincerity in its casters I’ve not found on many other podcasts. In particular, Wildcat is supportive of people anywhere in their journey, going to bat for inclusivity and team playing. He backed me, personally, in the Discord when things went a little harsh in a tournament. BTW feels like home. -Angrybunnyman

There’s not much I can say about this podcast other then it covers all aspects of Pokémon Go. Pogo news check! GBL tips and tricks check! Humor check! Viewer interaction check! They give us the good, the bad, and the ugly of Pokémon Go. You will improve just from listening to the podcast. Just avoid deleting tertwigs and building the same Pokémon twice.

Blue got in

At first glance this podcast looks like a time commitment. Most episodes last over 2.5 hours. However PoGo is a complex game and hosts Astro, Dihno, and Wildcat are there to break every aspect of this game down; the good, the bad, and the “Astrocious”. The team does an amazing job of explaining general concepts to new players as well as keeping veterans up to date on the latest strategies and trends with every new update to the game for those more veteran battlers. Case in point, this pod is worth your time!

Great podcast for Pokémon Go pvp. I listen every week to hear my favorite btw host talk about Pokémon. They are both knowledgeable and comedic in their presentation. 10/10 podcast

Came for the PvP advice, stayed for the fun, banter, and engaging co-hosts. Between each host you have a wide variety of relatable skill levels. Wildcat and Dhino provide next level advice that has helped me get out of Ace and Astro challenges them from an intermediate standpoint with how he’s seeing things. It’s a great podcast with a fun group of guys relatable, and the sounders are amazing.

If you’re looking to get good, look no further than the BTW Podcast. Astro, Dinho, and Wildcat bring all the knowledge you could want about Pokémon Go PvP, In-Game News, and much more to every podcast. The guys are incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful. They hold nothing back to help you get from a beginner to a winner. It’s a must listen!

Whether you’re new to PvP or a seasoned player, this show covers what you need to know for each cup, season and meta switch up. The crew take PvP advice seriously and themselves (and each other) significantly less seriously, creating a fun and informational podcast that helps propel you to new heights in the PvP realm. So settle in for a listen, take some notes and go get yourself a Pikachu Libre!

If you don’t mind long shows then buckle up. The hosts are hilarious, have great chemistry, and are incredibly knowledgeable. Join their Didcord and don’t hesitate. - HoosierDada13 (*also…#1chipformatthew, let’s get it trending)

Want to get better at PVP in the world of Pokémon Go? Well, you could just Google it, or you can check this incredible show out. It’s very evident the hosts have a great time recording, and it’s always great to listen to them no matter how long the show runs! They’ve built an awesome community and everyone in it is more than happy to help you become the very best, like no one ever was! 10 outta 10 would recommend!

Absolutely one on the best pvp podcasts I have came across. Also I wanna hear that velvet voice of Matthew

Big fan! I’ve been listening from the very beginning. It’s fantastic to have been along for the ride, the show is wonderful! Love that Astro is constantly laughing at himself and every episode is a balance of silliness, sprinkled with useful tips and knowledge. Between you guys and the Lured Up Podcast I’ve found the perfect mix for the PoGo entertainment! The collaboration between you two was…stellar. Looking forward to more special guests and to witness the continued growth. Keep up the great work.

mostly definitely one of my favorite podcasts! so much helpful insight to pvp & lot of knowledge about pokemon, these guys are amazing and the discord community is awesome and very helpful! i listen to podcasts during work so i LOVE the long shows! i look forward to this show every week! keep doing what you guys are doing. -MacDrigue

I love hearing about the new cups and figuring out what I would use if I have it to beat all the meta!

Every Wednesday, I look forward to listening to the BTWpvpPodcast. The guys who run the show are funny and relatable. It’s great to hear different perspectives about Pokémon PVP… and some random shenanigans too. I highly recommend anyone who enjoys Pokémon Go PVP to listen! (And also donate to their Patreon so you can join their awesome discord/ community!)

Easily one of the best pogo podcasts, a must-listen if you have any interest in the pvp sphere.

Fantastic show! If you have any interest in Pokémon GO PVP, you will love this show. Great knowledge and hosts. Strong recommendation.

This show has really helped me fill the gap between being new to PvP and doing better with it!

Great pvp content -quality listen
