Well, welcome back everyone to another edition of the Dungeon Master's Block, the place where we come to talk about

the most important person in the game, the Dungeon Master, the only person capable of

playing God, killing characters, and lowering the egos of all of the players at your table.

I'm one of your host, Dungeon Master Chris.

And I'm Dungeon Master Mitch.

And today we are talking about everybody's favorite thing, Pokemon. Well, kind of.

We're talking about something similar to Pokemon, how to battle monsters within your world and how you

might be able to possibly incorporate this style of gaming into your Dungeons and Dragons world.

And to join us to do that is Greg Leatherman from the podcast Dungeons and Dragonite.

So he is an expert on Pokemon and using monsters to do battle in a D&D game.

But before we do that, we have some five-star reviews from iTunes that deserve a good shout-out.

So Mitch, why don't you tell us what our first

one is? Our first review comes from DJ 2021, and it's entitled Valuable Resource Five Stars. When I first

started DMing, I had scourged the internet finding as many resources as possible to make sure the

story and game did not fall on its face.

This podcast, without a doubt, was just as valuable as the Dungeon Master's Guide and Players Handbook.

Oh, thanks. Most D&D-related podcasts will focus on just the game, while here we find the focus on bringing the games to life, what makes them

breathe and the hours of thought and crafting that goes into each minute of actual play.

The Storytime podcasts are fun. DMNastics are thought-provoking, but as a new DM,

the best that I have found are when they focused on the classes, races, and monsters,

hoping for more soon. Keep it up. Can't wait to see what comes out of the boiler next. So thank you

so much, DJ, 2021. That was an awesome review. We really appreciate it. And you're,
