Default Transmission Drain Plug

Hey guys, I'm sure I could figure this one out a little later in the day but thought I'd quickly ask here as well (tried a quick search as well). I've heard of some people replacing the tranny drain plug when they change the trans fluid, is this needed? How many of you personally do this? As well, is it needed/how many of ya also replace the washer on the oil drain plug each time?

Just wondering

Awesome. Will a standard type of washer from your local hardware store do, or is it specific?

Its specific and called a crush washer, generally they are made out of aluminum, but i've seen copper ones before, should only be something like 86 cents at honda.
