The Rocket Gang Secret Empire Pokémon Radio Station

As previously mentioned, Sakaki has opened a twitter account for the purpose of recruiting new Rocket Gang members. Recently, Sakaki had to leave on urgent business, and the account is currently being run by Nyarth, who has been using it to plug a Rocket Gang-themed radio show he is about to launch. A complete translation of all tweets from this account can be found here and is continuously updated. The show will premiere on InterFM (Tokyo 76.1 MHz/ Yokohama 76.5 MHz) Sunday July 1st, and will be broadcast every Sunday 7:00 PM to 7:30 PM.
