Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 7

February 8, 2023January 30, 2023 Medic 0 Comments playthrough, pokemon, pokemon violet

Okay so I’ve been a tad busy. I found and caught a Gible, and immediately I wanted to level the little bastard up, because, well, I don’t have a dragon type on my team yet. But also, a little birdy told me that I might need a ground type in a bit. That’s because I’m heading off to the electric gym on the other side of the world map. All those Pokecenters were well worth walking to. But before I go in with just one ground type, I consider bringing something else too. A second ground type. There were wild… [Continue Reading]

On Playing Mercy

February 7, 2023January 26, 2023 Medic 0 Comments medic, mercy, overwatch, overwatch 2

The other day, I was playing Overwatch 2 with the boyfriend, and I decided to play Mercy for a change. Normally I play Lucio with a bit of Moira depending on my mood, but I thought it’d be good to give Mercy another try. After all, Mercy has changed a lot since I played her back in the now defunct Overwatch 1. Did I enjoy playing Mercy? Not really. I was doing basically nothing but healing. Considering that Mercy has two forms of magical beam energy in her staff, I never really had a chance to use the damage-boosting beam.… [Continue Reading]

Noibat Community Day

February 6, 2023February 5, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, noibat, noivern, pokemon go

One of my favorite Pokemon is Noivern. So when I heard that we were getting a Noibat Community Day, I was very happy. This was a chance for me to get a hold of plenty of Noibats and hopefully be able to evolve a good Noivern. Things didn’t quite go as planned. The weather was quite threatening, and due to a mix-up I didn’t charge up my battery pack. So it was basically a race against the clock to see how many Noibats I could catch. What’s nice though was the triple stardust and double catch candy. Despite being a… [Continue Reading]

My First Level 50 Pokemon

February 5, 2023January 24, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go, tyranitar

Getting XL Candy can be tedious. Normally, there are only a handful of ways to get XL Candy. Walking a buddy will net you one XL for every small distance, and takes forever, earning one XL Candy at a time. The best way is to simply catch Pokemon, but that is also random. You may get 5 XL Candy in some cases, but most of the time, you get one XL Candy per catch if you’re lucky. However, aside from doing Legendary raids for Legendary Pokemon, getting XL Candy consistently is hard. Because of this, there are only a few… [Continue Reading]

Cooking Chicken is Curious

February 4, 2023January 23, 2023 Medic 0 Comments chicken

Chicken is one of the biggest types of meat around, having been eaten for centuries and perhaps millennia. It’s easy to raise, cheaper than beef or veal and also lays eggs, a byproduct and a massive food source. Chicken is simple to obtain and can be made into all sorts of dishes and cooked in all sorts of interesting ways. So many ways to cook it The great thing about chicken is that you can cook it in so many ways. You can fry or grill it, or roast your chicken in the oven. Slow-cooked chicken is always tasty. Boiling… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Costumed Pokemon

February 3, 2023January 22, 2023 Medic 1 Comment costume, pokemon go

While costumes on Pokemon can often be seen as a cheap way to better an event, there’s actually quite a lot of them that I like. Sure, these costume Pokemon waste precious space in my inventory, but I can’t help but like them. Here are my favourite costume Pokemon: Party hat Gengar I like Pokemon in party hats. After all, my Medic in TF2 always wears a party hat, and I like to carry that over into Pokemon GO. However, there are multiple Pokemon with party hats, but I can’t like all of them. After all, not all of them… [Continue Reading]

More Pokemon You Should Definitely Give Second Moves To

February 2, 2023January 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go

A while back, I discussed giving second moves to Pokemon. Doing so is pretty expensive in a lot of cases, so it’s always worth considering how much stardust you have and what will actually be useful. While you could just put double moves on any Pokemon, sometimes the stardust and candy costs are too much for not very little. Here are some more Pokemon that do well with a second move. And be sure to check our previous article about other Pokemon with second move potential. Metagross This first entry is mainly for PvP. Metagross is a monster in PvE… [Continue Reading]

B4B VS L4D2

February 1, 2023January 20, 2023 Medic 0 Comments back 4 blood, coop, four player, left 4 dead, pandemic, zombie

So I’ve played a little bit of Back 4 Blood and a little bit of Left 4 Dead 2. Back 4 Blood is a spiritual successor to the Left 4 Dead series, having similar themes and gameplay. Left 4 Dead 2 is a cult classic and still stands strong to this day. But if you’re new to the four player coop zombie swarm genre of first person shooters, you might find it harder to decide which game you’d want to buy. So here’s a really basic look at both games, and which one is better. Actually I take that back.… [Continue Reading]
