The Lush Jungle event (and Spring) has our allergies flaring up. With the new event, Fomantis and Laurantis enter Pokémon GO and PvP, with an updated moveset for the latter. Wild speculation about April’s Community Day ensues before we discuss Nemesis Cup, Silph Arena’s April meta.
Jesse and Steven will be going to the Antimater & Mazer Gaming’s “Nexus League Seattle'' open Great League tournament on April 24th. If you are in the area and want to participate too, more information can be found here: http://nlseattle.antimatter.gg
