良いオトシドリを~!
Matsumaru: Everyone,
Everyone: Pokéssu!
Matsumaru: Did you enjoy Pokédoko this year as well?
Hikaru: We got to meet so many Pokénds all over Japan this year.
Abareru-kun: Thanks a loTogepy!
Matsumaru: We hope to meet a lot of Pokénds next year as well, isn't that right?
Hikaru/Abareru-kun: Yup.
Matsumaru: Do you two have any resolutions?
Hikaru: I want to familiarize myself more with the Pokémon anime and present more of its appeal to you guys.
Abareru-kun: I'm going to come up with 2026 new Poképuns. "NisennijuuRock Blast"
Matsumaru: That's one.
Hikaru: One for the books.
Matsumaru: Just keep up the hard work like that, then.
Hikaru: Well done.
Matsumaru: ...wow, you look like you actually did work pretty hard on that one.
Hikaru: That's what you said, wasn't it?
Matsumaru: Seriously though, I think it WAS a good pun. So with that said, the first Pokédoko episode of 2026 will be airing Sunday January 4th at 7:30am.
Hikaru: Ready?
Everyone: Happy new year to YOtoshidori!
