The Missing Split – Manipulated Conversation

Medic 0 Comments , , , , ,

The names of Decay Lord Trios are generally deterministic. Those given by the Overlord tend to influence the future of a Trio, to the point that overcoming the potential implications of a name can be impossible. Clearly, a Decay Lord Trio dubbed ‘The Missing’ are bound to struggle against their almost predetermined fate. Unfortunately, it seems the multiverse is conspiring against them. Welcome to one of the… more depressing story arcs I’ve written. A story of rash decisions and broken emotions. Read the original post here. Sini peered into the tiny bedroom where Arkay was sleeping. He’d been hard at… [Continue Reading]

Goomy Community Day

Medic 0 Comments , , , , ,

Jeez, it was hot yesterday. It’s still really hot today. The middle of a heatwave. Which is why I played Goomy Community Day on my own. Most of it. I spent the last half an hour playing while also messaging my sister and letting her know that one of her favourite Pokemon was spawning right now. Not wanting to walk around in the sun and knowing that town hall, where I normally play, would be busy because of the elections, I decided to go to the mall, which does get a decent amount of spawns, and had three Pokestops and… [Continue Reading]

Bloodline Ended

Medic 0 Comments , , , ,

While the Retvik of the MK4 Phoviverse was always a well-known and respected hero of the Rethavok, the MK5 Retvik kinda had some political difficulties. For some rather admittedly stupid reasons, MK5 Retvik was an exile, an unwanted being. Well, today, that all changes. Read the original story here. Retvik checked the map, then looked up at the building in front of him, then checked the map again. The map said he was in the correct place. The presence of members of the 47th Legion suggested he wasn’t. This bothered Retvik greatly, because the 47th Legion, dressed up in black,… [Continue Reading]

Why are all these spawns the same?

Medic 0 Comments , ,

Okay so, new season here, and it’s… uh… off to a rocky start. At least, it is in my eyes. The release of the schedule for June has been a bit lame, what with Mega Rayquaza being stuck in Elite Raids (rather than a raid event like the Primals were), the Community Classic day being Cyndaquil (with no way of getting Blast Burn on Hisuian Typhlosian) and Goodra’s special Community Day move being Thunder Punch, a move that has just been given to a TON of other Pokemon for free. And while we got a really nice splash screen for… [Continue Reading]

Named Trios – An Ancient Decay Lord Tradition

Medic 0 Comments ,

In the Periuniversal Void, most beings belong to one of several categories: Life Goddesses, Voidborns and Time Drakes make up most of the living space, but many beings are just creatures without universes to live in. Many of these unhomed beings are called Decayons, and the Decay Lord society, run by a being called Deathven, is the only place they can turn to. One tradition among Decay Lords is the Named Trio, a common theme within my writing in the Phoviverse. Today, let’s have a bit of a lore dump on what Named Trios are, and let’s have a look… [Continue Reading]

Ferroseed Incense Day Sucked

Medic 0 Comments ,

Ugh. These events lately. They are making me sad. Like, really sad. Incense days are tedious. All you can do is stare at your phone, waiting for a spawn, making sure you don’t miss one. Meanwhile, everything around you is just standard normal spawns. You don’t get any bonuses like XP or stardust like Community Days, you don’t even get great shiny chances like the (allegedly) 1/10 shiny chance in Research events*. It’s a rough 1/25 to 1/64 chance at the event shiny, and standard 1/400 chances for anything else. And you can’t even specifically look for the event Pokemon,… [Continue Reading]

Bounsweet Community Day

Medic 0 Comments , ,

You know what? This community day fucking sucked. Bounsweet is one of those small, annoying Pokemon with a kinda meh shiny, a fucky hitbox and no windup for its attack animation. And, for some reason, it’s getting a Community Day before something useful, like the next starter Pokemon, Popplio. This stupid little berry Pokemon apparently is getting its chance to shine in the spotlight. Why? No idea. But this Pokemon is a bastard. It’s small, hard to catch and attacks a lot. And before you say “get good”, I want to point out that I can reliably land excellent throws… [Continue Reading]

Stupid Bird Event

Medic 0 Comments ,

I normally like research days. But the problem is, you’re always completely limited by how many Pokestops there are near you. And right now, there are only 20 Pokestops near me, that I can be bothered to walk to. I could get in my car and drive down to the harbour, but today, the wind is hot, the sun is burning and it’s tourist season now and I don’t want to walk among large crowds. But the thing is, we don’t even really get interesting birds. The only interesting one is Rufflet, which isn’t very useful, but I don’t have… [Continue Reading]

I just want to say fuck you to the four people who brought dragon types to a Tapu Fini raid and made us lose.

Medic 0 Comments

I just want to say fuck you to the four people who brought dragon types to a Tapu Fini raid and made us lose. Yes, the four of you. I am blaming all four of you for failing a raid that should have been comfortably doable with three people. I’m just one person. Sure, I’m one person with an ARMY of Kartanas, a bunch of powered up Zekroms, a perfect Shadow Magnezone and 4 level 40 Metagrosses, but I can only do so much damage. I need the rest of you to bring Pokemon that Tapu Fini is also weak… [Continue Reading]

Revenge Unfulfilled

Medic 0 Comments , , , ,

In the way the Phoviverse is written, technically, previous versions are still somewhat canon. Major events within previous MKs still happen in some way, although the names and details may have been altered or erased by the passing of history and the meddling of Time Drakes, the divine beings that govern the flow of Time within the Phoviverse. Today’s story isn’t set in the current Phoviverse MK5 era. It’s set in a long, distant past, all the way back in MK3, tying up a single string that I never really got around to dealing with. A vague, twisted answer to… [Continue Reading]
