Ep. 242 - The Yard: Essentials Edition [AUDIO]

Lairon is goated

My ALL TIME has to be Galarian Ponyta 😭😭😭

Victreebell is dope because he has a gaping hole for spitting but also potentially swallowing

Suicune

Love me a Garchomp

Dragonite ride or die for the last 15 years

All timer primo

jigglypuff fs

Lodi Dodi is a masterpiece and I will not stand for its slander

Scars by PaPa Roach is awesome

I had bar for bar the EXACT same experience as nick with that girl in high school. what a crazy world.

All time fave: Ampharos

As someone who’s grown up around hard maga people they listen to a lot of NBAyoungboy 😭😭😭. The old head magas listen to DMX

These guys are old

Gun to my head pokemon was totadile

Dragonite is goat and it's not close

Nick's Jesse impression is actually kind of good lmao

Staraptor

Growing up in a rural area in a red state slimes description is more accurate of that guy, Nicks guy seems like more online or the version of a rural maga guy through his socal lens. They don’t outright hate anything darker than snow their racism is more subtle and doesn’t bleed as much into their personal interests

ive always liked oddish

I’m like 15 minutes in and still wondering when aiden will start talkin

Okay chill on the Mac miller slander

Squirtle and gengar (have squirtle squad tattoo with shades on)

Rampardos. I'm hoping that they make an full art card at some point in the future, but I'm not too hopeful since he didn't even get an ex in tcg pocket.

Lopunny is my all time favorite. It's not just because I want it carnally.

Yall should play deadlock

It's hard for me to pick 1 favorite pokemon. It's either Cyndaquil bc a core memory for me was playing pokemon with my uncle who was in jail most my life. Or it's gengar bc I grew up watching ASFjerome pixelmon.

drifloon for suuuure. i bought a sinnoh pokédex book at a book fair in elementary school and drew hearts next to drifloon since i thought they were the cutest lol

Listen to slick ricks album bruh its a classic

It's Scyther and I'll never forgive Buntherz for saying I was a tryhard for picking it

Squirtle with the shades will always be my goat

favorite pokemon is probably Rhyhorn or Sawsbuck. love them ungulates also, "that girl" for me is still one of my best friends 20 years later :)

Did we.. hear… zippers voice?..

Gloom 🤤

Praying Nick decides to go through with playing Runescape someday, osrs rips man. The leagues is starting 4/15 which is heavily boosted xp and a bunch of other cool fun bonus shit you unlock that makes you overpowered as hell. Could be a fun way to dip your toes in and see what it's all about, might have to ban a few turbo backseaters but you'll definitely have some normal people in there giving you a reasonable level of direction. Or you could say fuck iiiit and go in fully blind, runescape players LOVE watching that shit man.

I also had a crush on the weird goth girl freshman year, ten years later we have a house and a baby :)

My favorite pokemon as someone who quit after sapphire is Togepi because i had this cute little plush that made the Togepi sounds when you squeezed it. Gave that shit to a girl I was obsessed with when we dated for like a month when I was 13-14. I miss him man

Scyther. Pretty sure I like anything with swords for hands now because of it

my favorite is trapinch. but also there are literally thousands of fake pokemon and like a whole youtube niche of fanmade regions out there so idk why nick doubted himself

digimon > pokemon because pokemon were just cute little guys but digimon were cute little guys in stories about like stealing nuclear weapons and dealing with your parents' divorce

real shit love the yard essentials edition but will absolutely treasure everyone while this show still runs. makes me happy, i genuinely look forward to this podcast every week. thanks for what you do

That phenomenon is called emotional vampires. It's why a lot of streamers get popular for a short burst and when they finish the story everyone scatters afterward because the cu-blood is drained.

Torterra the greatest pokemon

Shoutout blaziken

Garchomp has always been my goat

Shiny hunting mentioned RAAAA

Considering I have him tattooed on my arm, gotta be Piplup

Flygon is my favorite

I have a litwick tattoo 😤 funny slime knew chandelure but not the goober variant

Can we get Nick to listen to 2slimy

Arcanine best pokemon

THANK YOU. Guns n Roses blows

I worked with a girl who tried to convince me Yelawolf was the goat. If they got white girls you KNOW they got the white boys.

I like appletun

podcast to calcify your pineal gland to

Toxicroak😁

I think we're all having this cow penis cookie because we aren't having kids to show the cow penis milk to

Always a big fan of Mudkip and Ralts.

Haunter is my favorite. I think the anime in conjunction with needing friends to evolve him resulted in Haunter being my favorite rather than Gengar.

Never realized how old slime was h til he said the camera for the phone came out his senior year

Every guy in my high school was the Larry Byrd and Mac Miller guy

Scyther

All-Time 'Mon has always been bellsprout for me, and when I got older I learned that it's pokedex # is 69 which made it even better

Favorite pokemon all time gotta be garchomp, which is also a missionary take. It's from gen 4, which might be too new, but it did come out in 2007 ish. Also gen 5 being too new for zipper to know is funny because it's 15 years old by now.

Nick is incredibly wrong about maga people only liking white rappers, and he should have realized that when he couldn't name a 3rd white rapper. Slime was dead on. They all worship 90s rappers like Tupac + Eminem "before he went woke". I know this because I live in a rural town and talk to these people literally every day of my life.

Welcome to Game Dude™

piplup bc i wasn’t allowed to play with pokemon and it was the only card i had (also why i liked penguins)

Mimikyu is just a little guy

Metagross and smeargle clear

Rayquaza till I die

P.lease E.xcuse M.y D.ope A.ss S.wag

I’ve been shiny hunting the articuno for 5 days this shit ain’t sweet fr

My all time favorite pokemon is rowlet. Its a newer pokemon relative to gen 1. But the game is 10 years old now. Which is kinda hard to think about

How does Nick not realize she was probably embarrassed about the fact that she kissed him and he didn’t show reciprocation

This episode was actually one for the history books, we learned who the yearners are.

NoPolitikHere but slim shady has actively been shitting on trump and MAGA for the past 15 years no lie

What yall are talking about at the start about people playing games for the first time and having a large audience of people interested is exactly why Runescape had a surge of wow players having a massive boost in viewership for a couple months when yall had Liam on the pod

Dude psyduck

Orbeetle and Clawitzer 😍😍 great designs

Kyogre will always be the coolest Pokémon

Shoutout Gliscor

Always been a big cubone kind of guy

As a certified youngho my fav might be toxtricity, though jirachi is dope and close

Phanphy

Poliwrath and Hariyama, my GOATS

Torterra is the goat he’s like literally an island bro its so SICK

Golisopod is teh coolest. He is a cool isopod man who got into all sorts of Maxxing.

I love mew i got a tattoo of that mf but a close close second is marshadow shout out

all time gun to my head gotta be jirachi

Gliscor was my goat ever since the show

Gengar

Fakemon is a real fan thing

Lucario Also crazy to call Litwick a marshmallow. That's also the one that turns into a chandelier

electric duo

Cant wait to see these photos

Also who’s gonna let them know there ARE fakemon

Am I insane for thinking there’s a world where Nick didn’t clutch that interaction, that was an insane fumble and it might be the one we live in?

Claydol has been basically my day 1 (since I played Pokémon XD as a kid)

wait til slime finds out about mooblooms

Nick the kind of guy to have a girl walk up and kiss him and still come up with some kind of explanation that she isn't into him.

Lapras my overall GOAT, Nick has good taste

The guy is real, I know someone his favourite rappers are slim, lil peep and suicide boys and his the biggest racist in the world

Tododille

As a kid it was garchomp now it’s empoleon

Mac Miller catching unnecessary strays tonight :(

Appletun is my Goat and it's not close.

smeargle

as a kid i loved tyranitar, and i still do but gun to my head, i gotta say mimikyu is my guy

Do you think nick would like dungeon crawler carl?

favorite pokemon got to be luxray its just a cool cat that can see through walls and it gotta give some of the best cuddles

My favorite Pokemon is Riolu (the little blue guy that becomes Lucario) I don’t know why but a lot of my favorite are the little fighting type rascals. Pancham, Clobbopus, Scraggy, Mankey, Timburr.

nick is the perfect yes and guy for slime

It's gotta be politoed for me

i was born in 2001 and i love aipom so much. he is a monkey and hes a lil asshole in the show

Sableye

Machamp

Turtwig

open the noor

Nick is 100% right. There exists many guys who have a top 5 rapper list consisting of Eminem, G eazy, NF, Logic, and Mac Miller or Post Malone

slick rick has the eyepatch nick lmfao 22:00

"oops, all white guys" is the name of the podcasts tab in Spotify

Nick-esque idea: find the oldest and youngest yard listeners and make them fight in a boxing ring. Winner gets to move to Sweden with Aiden or something idk

🐷 oink oink

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

slop time

wahoo!

Waaa

wahoo!
