Are you ready for the new Pokemon theme “Sword and Shield”? It’s hitting this week for the Nintendo Switch. Travel to the Galar Region to meet three new partners you can choose: Grookey; Scorbunny; and Sobble. So which edition will you choose, Zacian or Zamazenta or will you pick up both editions?

Nintendo Art Auction for Autism
Thanks to AnimeNews Network for this information. The Animation and Illustration students of San Jose State University created art by using their favorite Nintendo games as inspiration. The assignment is finished and they have elected to offer their pieces in an online auction. The proceeds that are raised from the auction will be donated to the Morgan Autism Center. This is one I will definitely keep my eye on to see if I can win a piece, for as you know Logan, one of our Co-Hosts, has a form of Autism, which is Asperger’s.
This is your chance to own a one of a kind piece of art and help out the medical field in studying autism. Here is the link to view the art pieces and sign up for the auction to bid: https://www.doodlebender.com/auctions/press-start-nintendo-charity-gallery/items
