A Pirate Persona

Medic 0 Comments ,

Now I’m not actually a very violent person. Sure, I play video games, and my favourite video game involves being a yellow mass-murdering space ninja, but I’m rather tame. Heck, my online alias, Arkay, is named after one of my Phoviverse characters, a friendly death god who doesn’t like his job and spends way too long explaining that he’s more than just death, he’s also the personification of energy changing forms. However, out on the Sea of Thieves though, I’m a monster. I even have a persona for my pirate. My pirate is, well, not evil, but definitely not the… [Continue Reading]

Mega Heracross Raid Day

Medic 0 Comments , , ,

Raid days are fun, and it’s nice to have a chance to get a shiny for a Pokemon that’s normally a regional, but I feel kinda ripped off about this one. It was a pretty standard raid day, and we did get 8 free raids (5 additional passes, plus the previous day’s pass, plus this month’s bonus of two free passes a day) and I did a few extra raids with premium passes. Most of the raids, we did as a duo, me and my brother, because he really wanted the shiny, and Heracross is one of his favourite Pokemon.… [Continue Reading]

Mediocre Research Rewards, Still…

Medic 0 Comments , ,

Alongside the Team Rocket Takeover event, we got a timed research quest with two stages. The first stage was pretty simple but also a tad long, and involved nothing but catching 25 dark types, with a reward for every 5 dark types you caught. All you got was some XP and a Vullaby encounter but since the majority of spawns during the event were dark types, I didn’t expect too much. I suppose the Vullaby encounter was nice because they were rare spawns, but still, it was a simple task with a simple reward. However, the second part of this… [Continue Reading]

I Like Disruption Now

Medic 0 Comments ,

Alright, so I never liked Disruption as a game mode. I found it annoying and tedious and I never enjoyed it, despite Disruption being one of the fairer game modes out there. And with Disruption being the main focus of the Dante Unbound update, I kinda wasn’t looking forward to playing it and grinding forever to get Dante. Luckily, some changes were made to make things easier. Now, Disruption is pretty simple. It’s described as “defending some conduits to get rewards” but it’s way, way faster than mobile defense. You kill a bunch of enemies until one of them drops… [Continue Reading]

On Making Up Words and Languages

Medic 0 Comments , , ,

When it comes to writing the sort of weird fantasy fiction I write, I need to come up with a lot of fake words. One of the major things about the Phoviverse is that humans practically don’t exist in the main universe. In fact, humans haven’t properly existed since the MK3 Phoviverse, where they did exist and they did live near some of the larger races (mostly the Temthan and Kronospast empires) but in MK4, humans were reduced to a handful of references as a single race that lived on a single planet deep within Kronospast territories, where the Kronospasts… [Continue Reading]

Bagon Community Day Classic

Medic 0 Comments , , ,

Classic Community Days are basically just a chance to get an old Community Day to come back. While everyone has been desperate for Beldum and Metagross to come back, we got Bagon and Salamence in the mean time. Bagon definitely isn’t a bad pick, it is definitely a strong dragon type, and many people have Shadow Bagons they want to evolve. I don’t, I didn’t even get a decent 2* Bagon worth evolving, but Shadow Salamence IS one of the strongest dragon types available, only really beaten by Rayquaza, its Mega and Salamence’s own Mega. The event was mostly a… [Continue Reading]

Welcome to Kolasi – Mission Accomplished

Medic 0 Comments , ,

This week, instead of normal articles and for an April Fools joke, I’ll be sharing a new Phoviverse story arc, a story set in my fictional universe, with a bunch of nonsensical and definitely not human characters. Join a team of adventurers as they visit a strange jungle world to track down a dangerous beast. Read the original story here. “So, uh, Retvik, can you actually drive?” Retvik frowned as he awkwardly sipped from a very tiny champagne glass. After their stupid adventure, the four of them were now sitting in an extra large jacuzzi, eating fancy food and drinking… [Continue Reading]

Sure, it had a steep point, but the incline was relatively low, to the point that you could drive up parts of it with ease. In fact, that was kinda what had… [Continue Reading]

Join a team of adventurers as they visit a strange jungle world to track down a dangerous beast. Read the original story here.

The 4×4 vehicle was fine, but Kayel was insistent that they… [Continue Reading]
