Fanboys Anonymous

Welcome to the first-ever Fanboys Anonymous MOCK DRAFT of Pokémon! Hosts Tony Mango, Robert DeFelice and Callum Wiggins will pick between the original 151 Pokémon found in Generation 1 (Red, Blue, Yellow and Green), ranging from Bulbasaur through Mew.

First, we will set the "I choose you" order and then go in snake-style for our picks. All choices are based on the final evolutionary form, so if you choose Charizard, you get Charmander and Charmeleon as well, unless you opt not to take them.

Once all the Kanto region has been explored and every Pokémon has been assigned to a trainer, we will choose our team of six to battle it out with on Pokémon Showdown to determine who is the very best like no one ever was.

That battle will take place as a special edition of Bonus Features on the Fanboys Anonymous Patreon, so be sure to join there to see who wins the battles and to help keep this website and channel going with your monetary support.

Make sure to subscribe/follow on whatever platform you're listening, leave your comments on the videos or this post, share this with your friends and geek out with us!

Hey, hey, hey, Dacetacular nation! Dace Man here with the 24th edition of The Dace Man Plays!

Going forward, yours truly will play a game here and there usually for about 10–20 minutes because, frankly, anything longer and you all would lose interest. Hear my commentary as I take on some of the classics and some of the new-age stuff I don't quite understand!

In this installment, my nephew John teams up and loses track of time with fellow Dace Man Show co-host Gibby. This time we play PlayStation 3's Twisted Metal and the fourth level in the Sweet Tooth Campaign. See how delusional and deranged we get while playing for over an hour and with my nephew, who is clearly better than us, in part four.



As always, check back regularly to see what Chris "The Dace Man" Dace is looking at (and no, not just porn), as well as all of the other bloggers here at Fanboys Anonymous. Remember, keyboard warriors: leave your feedback! Until the next time, for the few, the proud, and, of course, the Dacetacular, grab a beer—and in this case a PlayStation 3 controller—and check out what's going on here in the Dace-Sphere. See ya next time!
