Well, it happened again...
Hey guys. MyPodcast decided to blow up a few days earlier than they said, two days ago Taco Man and I wrote, recorded, and edited this episode. It is incredibly short and it won't make sense why Red is suddenly there. None the less I uploaded it on youtube but you can only view the video here because I made it unlisted. On Itunes we are now "The Red Squirtle" click here for a direct link. As for our feed, you can follow it on a blog we made to create this feed. You can go to it right here. Anyways, here is our short little episode we made that WAS going to be put on our old feed....presenting Episode H: MyProblem
Sorry again,

Let's talk about Episode 21: This Is Not My Batman Cup
Wow....i wrote this episode a long long long long LONG time ago...and I think we recorded it before we rewrote/recorded episode 19....yikes. This one does not really have too much to explain. In this episode, I wanted to have Red go to a restaurant because we all know he would somehow get kicked out. Later when Red used the pokeflute...you may have noticed that it wasn't a flute making those sounds. Instead, we got Taco Man to get out an old recorder he had in elementary school and just play that very badly. One major theme of this episode is the "WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH etc." and some of you may be confused about why we chose the name "This Is Not My Batman Cup" Anyone familiar with Family Guy might get it. If you are not, well...I can't find the clip on Youtube...sorry guys. We also had Red run into biker gangs because....hey why not. If you don't recognize the song, it's from Chrono Trigger when you meet up with Johnny the Biker. Also...wow I'm surprised Red is still alive from that beat down he experienced. Then the rest about going to the docks...that's quite self explanatory...so yeah.... Wanna hear what I was listening to when I was writing this?...OKAY
Yeah...so...it's time foooorrrrrr...MY FAVORITE QUOTE OF THE EPISODE!

Gang6- and I bet that you….you eat……grass
I love silly lines like that!
Anyways I'll be back later this month about important things

Woah! It's November?
Hey everyone! Alex here and wow it is November?! School has been keeping me (and the rest of the guys) quite busy. Anyways let's go over October's Question which was "You send Red a text message. He answers with "HEY HEY HEY HEY...no!" What did you send him?"
Brock said "Hey Red! It's your best friend of all time Brock!!! Wanna hang out?"
PAPAYA said "Will Gold defeat you in an battle of epic proportions at Mt. Silver?"
Anonymous said "Is there anything yellow that you don't like?"
ComputerBug said "Hiiiiiiiiii Red! It's me Emerald! You know, the guy who ate your Pidgey. Yeah, sorry about that again, at least you got it back a couple hours later. He tasted like onions. Anywho, I hope you can you forgive me? "
Brian said "Hey, what's up?"
Whoever posed as Brock...you made my day when I read that. PAPAYA and ComputerBug both posing as a character from other pokemon games. Anonymous' question about yellow is flawless because Red...likes the color yellow. And Brian's answer.....made me laugh a lot because I could imagine Red doing that. Anyways, No question for the rest of this month because we are pretty much done. HOWEVER! Do expect a post tomorrow about Episode 21. Another post later this month about some problems we are experiencing (that are now resolved). See you all tomorrow and I'll let you off with this awesome Top 21 Red Squirtle Moments made by our friends over at FireGold. Enjoy!

Woah! October!
Hey guys! It's been a bit. Well lets start by looking at the question: What would Red's favorite Candy be? Let's review!
- I said he'd like Twix...I'm still not sure why
- PAPAYA said Red would enjoy any kind of Easter treats because oh one of his thoughts "Think like a smart person...bunnies"(Episode 7)
- Waterboy11 said laffy taffy...but specifically Yellow laffy taffy
- ComputerBug said Chocolate Dunkaroos because of his awesome Halloween costume
- Anony said Anything yellow! That's quite a broad category
- Brian said Butterfingers with Heath Bar as a close second...he also seemed to be very secure about that answer
So onto news. We are attempting to release another episode either this month or November. Other than that, nothing else new is going on. Lets have a new question! You send Red a text message. He answers with "HEY HEY HEY HEY...no!" What did you send him? Be funny guys. I love reading answers.

Well well. It's that time again...
Okay before I go into news and such, lets see how people would approach this battle scenario. "Wild DITTO appeared. Go! ________! Who would be sent out and what would you do?" We got quite a few responses for this one. I was glad to see that. Brian said he'd send out Spearow that only knew mirror move. This "technique" would end up having both pokemon constantly be transforming and using mirror move....so it'll end in a struggle fight. Anony1 said "Go Poliwrath! Poliwrath uses Hypnosis! Wild Ditto fell asleep! Poliwrath uses Submission! Wild Ditto is defeated!" This answer needs no explanation. Anony2 said just plain and simple a Gengar. Our friend (with another new name) Computer Bug said He'd send out a Slaking and use focus punch, but because it will go second (slow speed stat) ditto will transform into it and then it'll get super effective from focus punch. Anony3 said "Magikarp or Fishy" If I was Anony3...I'd stick with Fishy ( way better than the average Magikarp). Finally, G-Dragon said he'd have a transform contest by sending out his own Ditto...so another struggle fight.
Okay with that out of the way, I have bad news. School started. With all 3 of us now separated again, updates will be....very very very slow again. However, we do have stuff recorded. So within....I dunno... a few months we'll try to release another episode. Its hard because editing is a long process and Taco Man has very little free time now. As for me, I'll try to find stuff to post and entertain you guys while you wait. Right now I have nothing, but I'm getting a microphone soon so maybe I'll record a mini series on the side. I do have ideas. I'll just leave it at that...also don't expect much in terms of editing. I don't know nearly as much as Taco Man. So how about a question now. What would Red's favorite Candy be? Personally I'd see him as a big twix fan myself. I'm not sure why though... Anyways what do you guys think? See you all maybe later this month. If you didn't know, we started uploading older episodes of Red Squirtle to Youtube. Check them out! I also personally annotated each episode with little facts you may or may not know. So if you have a few minutes to kill, check us out HERE

Happy....Mid August!
Yeah...I got a little lazy. I'm sorry.
Last month's question was "Whats your favorite character?" Let's take a look at the things you guys said.
Anony likes Red because of his unique mind and how it actually somehow helps him in battle. PAPAYA of Fire Gold (click here to see it) says he likes Surge or else he wouldn't be a good American....fair enough. How can you live in AMERICA-ICA-ica-ica-ca-ca-ca without liking Surge. Jacob McAwesome (great name by the way) likes Pidgey because he can relate it to his own Pidgey, who happens to lose a lot in battle. Finally, Emerald (used to be gold) said that he liked is Brock because...c'mon who doesn't like Brock
Alright that's it for today now to give you a new question. Wild DITTO appeared. Go! ________! Who would be sent out and what would you do? It doesn't have to be Red Squirtle related so get creative! We currently have 21 recorded and in the editing process. 22 is partially recorded (that one may take a while to edit because of it's complexity)and just as an fyi, we have 24 episodes fully written. Okay guys see you later this month for an update.

Write up episode 20!
It felt like forever since I wrote this one...mainly because it has been a long time since then, even longer than the redo of episode 19. None-the-less I remember this episode was fun to write and fun to record.
If you didn't notice, the intro is very similar to the outro of episode 19...that is because what we had recorded in the intro was the recap of the old episode 19. So instead of recording a new one, we just took the outro and decided it was good enough (we wanted this episode to be released asap)
In this episode we introduced two rocket members who aren't very good pokemon trainers. Their voices are based on the voices of henchmen 21 and 24 from one of my favorite TV shows, The Venture Brothers. Master of Rock and I love to do impressions of these two and we decided to add it to Red Squirtle. Personally I think I can do a better 21 than I did in the recording, but hey it kinda sounds like him. Later we move to the battle between Marowak and Squirtle. I'm 100% possitive that everyone tried to catch the Marowak only to have it avoid the pokeball. I have a story about that, but I'll explain it at another time.
This is when you guys truly see the power of Growlithe. We had this one planned for a while. However, the original plans for Growlithe was different. We planned to have two episodes based on Erika's gym. In one epsioe Red would battle her and lose. Then in the next episode Red finds a Growlithe, catches it, then battles Erika and wins. We scrapped this idea when we realized how much we liked doing game shows and replaced that idea with Red meeting Yellow and trading for a Growlithe, but that was replaced with what 19 is today. I'm not sure when we decided to make Growlithe all glitchy like, but it had to be close to when I started writing the episode. Later we meet mr. racism...I mean Fuji. I apologize to any Asian listeners that impression, but come on. His name is Fuji, he has to be Asian. This is one of those Rare instances where Taco Man is not Red, Squirtle, or Growlithe. He played Fuji in this one. So direct the hate mail to him :D Also did you guys like that little thing at the end? This is what we were saying before starting the episode. From this you learned that 20 is indeed 5 after 15. Good job Master of Rock, you CAN do math
Thats all for this episode. All that's left is my favorite quote(s) of the episode. This episode has to be this one:

Red- HEY YOU!
Rocket3- huh?
Red- shut up. Use another move growlithe!
This exchange here always cracks me up. Red is such a boss. Do you have a favorite quote from 20? Share it here. However don't forget to answer July's question you can see it HERE . Just scroll down to the bottom of that post and the question will be bolded and underlined. See ya soon for the next episode!
