Main Points

 * Gained 500,000 subscribers by September, less than 100,000 more from then to now
 * If Nick only played GO every day, the channel would die
 * No real updates in two months, no new content: Nick's future is in Niantic's hands if he doesn't branch out and he doesn't want that
 * Playing Duel would bring in new subscribers and lose some older ones but overall cause growth
 * Nick's going to do what he enjoys: Duel and exploring
 * Nick's very thankful to those who have, do, and will subscribe to the channel
 * Had delays shipping pins (week's delay); some going out today, others later when they've gotten more labels (which are gotten from the store)
 * Chansey at Wilderness Park as they sit down to eat at Nelly's, Cassy stays, Nick drives over with both phones
 * Nick gets attacked by geese, finds Chansey on his phone, does not get it on Cassy's
 * Both go back to Wilderness Park to catch the nest pokemon Kabuto
 * Hatched Spearow
 * Niantic's tracker encourages people to get in the car and drive because they can see things too far away to get walking. Also, Japan still doesn't have the tracker
 * Nick's phone died, so he lost all the screen capture (and inserted Paint image)
