Pokemon Masters EX has added a final set of events revolving around its new Galar-based trainers. On top of the Solo event Severely Strained Relations being updated with new content, the highlight here is a new Poke Fair Scout for Pokemon Sword and Shield protagonist Victor.
5★ Sync Pairs will have a 10% chance of appearing in the Scout event, including new 5★ fair-exclusive Sync Pair Victor & Rillaboom. As usual, the Sync Pair will release with their Sync Grid expanded and the ability to be raised to 6★ EX. Additionally, to celebrate protagonists from all 8 main regions now being available in Pokemon Masters EX, a special Mission Bingo will be made available. Just like the other recent Galar events, the Victor Poke Fair Scout will be available until October 23, 10:59 PM PT.
At New York Comic Con 2022 today, the latest Nendoroid news was shared, and we now know that The Human / Toriel from Undertale is getting a figure. As of now we only have the concept image above. This is the first step in the production process, and we’ll probably be seeing a prototype version in the near future followed by the finalized design and release date.
The Human / Toriel joins a few other Undertale Nendoroids. We’ve seen Sans, Papyrus, and Undyne so far.
Two more DLC characters have been revealed for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, with Gamma 1 and Gohan (DBS Super Hero) joining the fray. Both will be included in “Hero of Justice Pack 1”. Gamma 2 will also be featured in the same DLC set.
Gamma 2 was announced in his own trailer last month. The video hinted at the inclusion of Gamma 1 as well, which today’s trailer officially confirms.

Pilotwings 64 will be added to Nintendo Switch Online as part of the Expansion Pack tier next week, Nintendo has announced. It will be available on October 13, 2022.
Here’s an overview of the game:
Khary Payton is the voice of the penguin king in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the actor has confirmed.
Nintendo and Illumination shared the first trailer for the film earlier today. Towards the start of the video, we see Bowser wreck the penguin kingdom and taking the Super Star. And during that scene, we briefly get to hear the king penguin speak, and it turns out that Payton is behind the character.
Payton took to Twitter and shared the news about his role in The Super Mario Bros. Movie:
The Super Mario Bros. Movie has finally released its first trailer, and we now have comments from Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri plus Shigeru Miyamoto, the character’s creator.
Meledandri started out with the following:
The very first trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie has come in as part of today’s Nintendo Direct. Those in attendance at New York Comic Con were also able to get a first look.
Nintendo Direct: The Super Mario Bros. Movie is kicking off not too long from now, and we’ve got the live stream ready to go. The fun begins at 1:05 PM PT / 4:05 PM ET / 9:05 PM in the UK / 10:05 PM in Europe.
Fans have been itching for their first look at the film since it was announced years ago. During today’s Nintendo Direct, the debut teaser will be shown and the presentation will presumably have more beyond that.
Pokemon fans have spotted two unannounced creatures in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.
Both were briefly shown during a new trailer shown for the games today. While we don’t have the best looks at them, it’s the first time they’ve been shown to the world.
The first Pokemon is thought to be the possible pre-evolution for Armarouge / Ceruledge. The second one is hidden behind the camera UI, and since it’s tough to make out, there’s not too much fans can speculate about for now.
