400 Pokemon in 6 Days

October 1, 2023September 18, 2023 Medic 0 Comments

I don’t normally consider myself a hardcore player. I do play Pokemon GO daily, and I do have a lot of Pokemon, but there’s quite a few things I don’t do. For example, I don’t play in the GBL or really do any PvP stuff, because I find it boring and somewhat luck-based with the bugs and lag that you get while playing. But I can’t really call myself a casual player either, because I’m over level 40, on my way to level 45 and frankly I probably play a little bit too much. However, I recently realized just I’m… [Continue Reading]

On Starter Pokemon in Pokemon GO

September 30, 2023September 17, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, starter

Starter Pokemon in Pokemon GO are kinda weird. Almost all of them are somewhat useless until they get their Community Day moves. However, the time it takes to get a Community Day move is generally quite a while. For example, Greninja was unable to get his Community Day moves for a good year or so, maybe two. And at the same time, Charmander’s evolution Charizard already has two Community Day moves. One of which is honestly kinda useless outside of PvP. However, most starter Pokemon are missing out, and even fewer manage to get their signature moves. Greninja and Blaziken… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Picks from the Warframe Soundtrack

September 29, 2023September 16, 2023 Medic 0 Comments music, soundtrack, tracks, warframe

I love Warframe’s soundtrack. It’s always been a standout part of Warframe as a whole, and the music really gives the game an edge. But there are certain tracks that I feel go above and beyond. Songs that get stuck in my head all the time. Here are some of my favourites. Sleeping in the Cold Below I actually kinda missed this song in Call of the Tempestarii. When it came out, I thought Sleeping in the Cold Below was awesome, and I did write an article about it. However, when I played the Call of the Tempestarii quest, I… [Continue Reading]

The Lotus – A Mistake Was Made

September 28, 2023September 15, 2023 Medic 0 Comments lore, lotus, new war, warframe

It’s been a while since I played The New War. I kinda rushed through the quest because I didn’t really playing as Drifter. I was also rather annoyed at how little war was actually in The New War. Sure, we had things like Scarlet Spear, Chimera Prologue, Apostasy and the Murexes leading up to The New War, but these events were far too spread out to have any meaningful impact on the New War itself. But while I played and eventually finished The New War, I realized that I had made a massive mistake. Before I continue, if you haven’t… [Continue Reading]

How the Psychic Spectacular event could have been more Spectacular

September 26, 2023September 22, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, psychic

The Psychic Spectacular event comes by every year, generally after the Ultra Unlock events end. It’s an event that bridges the gap between the GO Fest rush and the October spooky events. However, this year’s Psychic Spectacular was rather boring. Here’s how it could have been better. More psychic types We did get a few psychic types but they’re all mostly old ones. While some people may need Exeggcute for the Meltan special research, most other Pokemon are somewhat recent or kinda spawn already. We already had a Slowpoke community day, Spoink is useless and a common grunt in Team… [Continue Reading]

Grubbin Community Day

September 24, 2023September 23, 2023 Medic 0 Comments Bug, charjabug, community day, grubbin, pokemon go, vikavolt

I do often wonder how Niantic decide on who and what gets a community day and when. For September 2023, we got Grubbin, the small bug type Pokemon that evolves into the bug and electric type Vikavolt. Why did we get Grubbin? No idea. But either way, we got a new shiny and a technically new move. The bonuses for the community day were alright. Triple catch XP is always a welcome sight, but Grubbin isn’t the easiest to get excellent throws on. Luckily, Grubbin is pretty easy to catch, so you get that extra First Ball experience. There weren’t… [Continue Reading]

The “A Paldean Adventure” Research is Rather Tedious

September 23, 2023September 11, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go, research, special research

With the start of a new season, we’ve been given a new special research, A Paldean Adventure. While it is a special research, it’s also a lot of work, with not much of interest when it comes to rewards. So far, it’s only rewarded a Paldea starter based on what path you take, and a LeChonk, which has been spawning all over the place in the two Paldean events. As of writing, I don’t know what stage 5 is, but it’s quite possible that it might be nothing. Or it could be catch 800 Pokemon. And it might just reward… [Continue Reading]

Now for Something Completely Different

On Watching The Great British Bake Off

September 22, 2023September 10, 2023 Medic 0 Comments baking, cake, reality tv

I’ve always enjoyed cooking and baking, and I like watching cooking videos. But I don’t normally watch reality TV shows featuring cooking. Because of this, I’ve kinda avoided the Great British Bake Off for a long time. Turns out, that’s a mistake of mine, I’ve been missing out on a lot of fun. What first dragged me in was a clip from the show, featuring the comedian Alex Horne, the guy who created and stars in Taskmaster as the Taskmaster’s assistant. I watched a bunch of other clips and decided that, maybe, it was worth having a look at. Most… [Continue Reading]

Krakens and World Events

September 21, 2023September 9, 2023 Medic 0 Comments kraken, pirate, sea of thieves

In the Sea of Thieves, there’s always some sort of event going on. By ‘event’, I mean a world event, a timed, optional thing you can sail to and do. These events are situated somewhere in the game world, and you tend to have to sail to them to do them. World events appear one at a time, and will disappear either after a crew has finished the event, or it times out on its own. Skeleton and Ghost fleets feel like the most common world events, and generally take the longest to do. Both events involve fighting other ships,… [Continue Reading]

All Legendary Raids Should Be Like How They Were In GO Fest

September 20, 2023September 8, 2023 Medic 0 Comments legendary, legendary pokemon, pokemon go

Legendary Pokemon are a horrible pain to catch. You have just kicked a Legendary Pokemon’s arse and now you have to catch the bastard. A Pokemon which will flail and jump around like crazy, constantly jumping out of Pokeballs. And you can’t even use nanab berries to calm the Pokemon down. If you’re lucky, you can use razz berries, but 99% of the time, you’ll have to use the golden variant, or use silver pinaps. This has been the way since, well, Legendaries first appeared in raids. They have always been a pain in the butt to catch. After every… [Continue Reading]
