Stupidly Hard To Get Pokemon That Are Also Kinda Useless in Pokemon GO

February 3, 2024January 25, 2024 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go

There are a lot of rare Pokemon in Pokemon GO, but just because something is rare, that doesn’t mean it’s good. Here are some stupidly rare, hard to get Pokemon that just aren’t worth the effort. Salazzle I really like Salazzle. It was what carried me in Pokemon Shield, and I have one on my team in Pokemon Violet as well. It’s actually not the easiest Pokemon to obtain in general though, because you need to get a female Salandit to evolve it into a Salazzle, and only 12.5% of Salandit are female. In Pokemon GO, this is even harder… [Continue Reading]

On Writing About Shapeshifters

February 2, 2024January 24, 2024 Medic 0 Comments ramble, shapeshifting

Shapeshifting is probably one of the most overpowered super powers. You can be pretty much anyone, do pretty much anything and also access a wide array of other powers, based on how that shapeshifting works. That being said, I don’t see shapeshifting much in video games. Off the top of my head, I can’t think of any popular games where you play as some kind of shapeshifter. The one exception for this is various classes in games like World of Warcraft, but even then, the shapeshifting is limited. Despite that, there is one place where I’ve seen lots of shapeshifting,… [Continue Reading]

Good Luck Getting Dusk Form Rockruff

February 1, 2024January 23, 2024 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go, rockruff

Did you know that you can now get Dusk Form Rockruff? No? Well it was released rather unceremoniously during an event which kinda had nothing to do with Rockruff. All the event spawns didn’t seem to fit. Like, why was Gastly spawning, and why was it the only Pokemon that seemed to be spawning in obvious numbers? In reality, the event was an egg-hatching event, but without any sort of discount on incubators or a reduced hatching distance. Dusk Form Rockruff was introduced kinda at a whim. It had a chance to appear in event eggs, event research and raids,… [Continue Reading]

What To Do If You’re Attacked On the Sea of Thieves

January 31, 2024January 21, 2024 Medic 0 Comments combat, sea of thieves

So you’re sitting there, quite happily emptying a vault after successfully finding a key. But oh no, there’s a ship on the horizon! What do you do? Well, unfortunately, you’re probably in trouble. Sure, you can try and talk your way out of a situation, but if a pirate wants blood, they’ll get it. So here are some handy common knowledge tips, in order to try and save yourself. I’d actually recommend against running, at least not for hours. If someone is coming to attack you, they’ll just keep on coming. I’ve been on both sides of the chase, and… [Continue Reading]

On The Abandoned Mess That Is Railjack

January 30, 2024January 22, 2024 Medic 0 Comments railjack, warframe

When Railjack originally came out, it was buggy and difficult, but it was interesting. Once the bugs were cleared up (mostly things like getting stuck between missions and rewards not being rewarded), the experience was great. Railjack was genuinely challenging, and required strong teamwork in order to not get completely torn apart. The Intrinsics system was grindy, the whole process of building a Railjack was very expensive and there wasn’t really any reward for any of it apart from Mastery, but it was new and exciting and different. Over time though, the excitement died down. But at the same time,… [Continue Reading]

The Entrati Labs Are A Better Zariman

January 29, 2024January 20, 2024 Medic 0 Comments cavia, entrati labs, holdfasts, warframe, zariman

The more I think about it, the more I can’t help but shake this feeling. The Zariman is an alright place to be, but the Entrati Labs are so much cooler. It’s as if they took what made the Zariman interesting and upped it repeatedly. While the Zariman does look cool, it is mostly just ruined and destroyed. On the flip side, the Entrati Labs are basically two locations in one, a weird Orokin Frankenstein laboratory where massive body parts are being made, combined with the creepy, open air areas of Indifference. On top of that, the Entrati Labs are… [Continue Reading]

Sea of Thieves’ Season 10 Was Lame

January 28, 2024January 19, 2024 Medic 0 Comments sea of thieves, season 10

I’m going to be straight here, Season 10 sucked. There was hardly anything in it. We got some numbers, a single world event and a copy of an existing game mode. That was it. Nothing else. Let’s start with guilds. While guilds are indeed cool, they are mostly just some numbers that go up, and the ability to use your friends’ ships, if they allow you to. Sure, there’s some progression and unlocked tied to it, but 99% of guilds is invisible once you’re in game. The only gameplay-affecting part is when you get to rank 15 and unlock the… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon I miss seeing in the wild

January 27, 2024January 18, 2024 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go

Pokemon GO currently has the second most Pokemon available to catch, after Pokemon HOME, only just edging out Ultra Sun and Moon. When Pokemon Sword and Shield came out, we had Dexit, and a LOT of Pokemon were cut out of the game, you could no longer catch them all. Scarlet and Violet continued this trend, with there only being about 400 Pokemon in the complete Pokedex for the game and its current DLCs. However, while you can almost catch them all in Pokemon GO, a lot of it relies on luck, and a LOT of Pokemon can only be… [Continue Reading]

On Playing Dagath

January 26, 2024February 4, 2024 Medic 0 Comments dagath, warframe

I’ve honestly been pretty late when it comes to new Warframes. I still haven’t managed to get any Qorvex parts, despite being rank 4 with the Cavia. Sure, I can buy the parts from Bird-3, but they cost 20k standing each, and that’s a lot of standing, when bounties only give a maximum of about 5k each, assuming I do the hardest bounties. At the same time, I put off farming for Dagath for ages. It wasn’t that the farm for Dagath is hard, but it was boring. The problem was that I waited for a resource booster. It turns… [Continue Reading]

Routes Are Still Annoying

January 25, 2024January 15, 2024 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go, ramble, routes

Routes in Pokemon GO are kinda simple. You go up to a Pokestop or gym, start a route, then follow a glowing trail all the way to another Pokestop or gym. And that’s… kinda it. There is some leeway when it comes to actually following the path, as it has to deal with GPS sway and things like that, but you still have to stick kinda close to the route. If you travel too far away, you have to backtrack and then MANUALLY resume the route. At the end of the route, there’s a chance of finding a Zygarde Cell… [Continue Reading]
