    The Paldean starters are way too adorable to be consumed, especially my boi Sprigatito! I absolutely love the story behind the starter evolutions. They're all based on a different Latin festival. For Quaquaval, it's Rio's Carnival (a similar Carnival also takes place in the Canary Islands which is a part of Spain). For Meowscarada, it's Mardi Gras. And for Skeledirge, it's Día de los Muertos. Also, my favorite Paldean Gym leader by far is Larry. I mean the fact he's a Japanese salaryman who's both a Gym Leader and an Elite Four member and his signature move is FACADE...what a mood

    Actually, I think the partition paper they gave you at the Pokemon cafe is for pictures! You can set it up as a backdrop when you take photos of your pokefood! :D

    Interesting they didn't do a Master Ball onigiri, definitely a missed opportunity! Also, you eating the Make Your Own Story course while the Scarlet/Violet Gym Leader music plays in the background is a vibe.
    For those who don't know, Mister Donut was founded by Harry Winokur, who previously worked with his brother-in-law William Rosenberg, the founder of Dunkin' Donuts, and founded Mister Donut after he broke his relationship with Rosenberg.

    Love watching all your videos! The kids have watched your mario world ones over and over and over haha.
    We also love these Pokémon ones and your studio ghibli park video. I so wish I could visit Japan and be your friend! Your videos just make me want to hop on a plane immediately and bring home suitcases of Pokémon merch!

    All of the food looks delicious! Also I love how good the packaging are but too bad some had to be ripped (like the rice balls) cause I'd totally keep them and stick them on the scrapbook. I'd wanna taste the orange drink cause I love orange-flavored things. All of the donuts look good too but the Jigglypuff one looks delicious. We have Mister Donut here in our country but no Pokemon collab (I don't think we even have those flavors in the video available there). The Pokemon Cafe always looks nice and I really wish I could go there someday. Food presentation is cute and it's a shame to have to eat them lol.
    I wish those things are available here where I live cause watching these thing makes me feel like I'm really missing out (on both a fun experience and yummy food).

    a thought occurred to me while i was catching up on your videos. say, if one can't eat pork or any other element of a dish for any reason, is it possible to ask them to omit it? or is it fixed? thank you for being such a joy to watch, chris. your content is always so comforting.

    I have a question for you. I looked all over the net but could not find the answer. My fiancee and I are coming to Japan again this coming up May and I wanted to know what is the best way to get to Universal Studios from Shinjuku for the day? I found a buss that leaves around 10 pm and drives all night, and it also recommended the trains but both options were pretty pricey. Would it be better to stay the night in Osaka or is there another Universal closer?

    The Violet meal set seems cute and tasty, but how do you sign up for those limited events a month prior to them? Like do you try to predict those events or they tell it in advance too?

    • @tsunderelolita
      @tsunderelolita Рік тому +1

      Pokemon cafe is a permanent cafe but has seasonal menus. It is always booked but they open reservations every month. You have to time it and pick your slot when it opens up. They have a website you do this all on.

    • @tsunderelolita
      @tsunderelolita Рік тому +2

      There's some ads and themes but it depends. For scarlet and violet they kept some of it secret. So it's kinda a prediction i believe

    Wish I was there with you. I definitely love melon soda. I bought two at a Japanese festival in london UK. It was in like a metal ish bottle have tried the grape one yet but I'm seriously into Japanese melon soda. I'd buy a crate of them if I could. I miss the Japanese Festival. I love mochi too. I love watching you film. I it's 5.26am and I had to pause so I could get some snacks . You were making me hungry. More videos please. Happy new year2023.

    lol been super jelly of you for awhile. surprised i got here so early. i finally tasted a mochi donut n it was very chewy. when i heard u say grape i new the melon soda would never be picked 😂 i do love the fact they give out free item. i hope they never stop! buying stuff on ebay does drive me crazy but its the only thing i can do. just gotta wait for the universal mario world to open up hopefully it will give us a taste of what you see every day. i do thank you for posting these videos. you guys seem to have fun. mybe youll become a travel agent :)

  • @jackieowen7717

    Totally would try the donuts. I like the idea of the onigiri, but not the mayonnaise part. I think I would have gotten the melon soda! I really enjoy your food videos; you describe food well!
    Doesn't Jigglypuff put Pokémon to sleep? That would make sense then if the backs of the donuts with a sleeping Pokémon have him jiggly bombing! 😂😂

    The themed partition you got at the cafe reminds me of the paper partitions they'd make us use in elementary school when taking tests to prevent cheating. Maybe to be used in a school setting since the game is themed around an academy? Lol

    I went to the sweets cafe and the waffle was a disappointment. Not a fan of cold waffles, and it just tasted dull. The orange "frappe" (more an icy) was delicious. I couldn't stop drinking it.
    The pokemon cafe was great tho. Didn't mind the food and had fun watching Pikachu's performance
