In this Pokemon interview, we are joined by Mat4yo, a Pokemon Trainer who specializes in writing and performing raps about Pokemon!

Mat4yo dives into how he started with rapping beginning with critiquing Epic Rap Battles of History. He details his involvement with crafting the Ash Ketchum vs. Charles Darwin episode and gives insight into the writing process. Eventually, he transitions into writing raps and how he got involved into the "nerdcore" community.

Mat4yo then talks about his early experiences with Pokemon beginning with Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald. He shares his opinions on the games and how they influenced his love for the franchise and how it has evolved as he has grown.

Finally, Mat4yo talks about his trip to Japan and experience the homeland of Pokemon with his brothers!
