Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 2

I’m back here, playing more Pokemon Violet, but guess what? There’s a time skip! After going to bed after my first day at school, there’s a massive time skip, up until the school’s big event, the Treasure Hunt. Honestly, I am just perplexed by the time skip. But anyway, the time skip passes and we are left standing outside the school, being told about the treasure hunt. There’s no actual treasure or anything. It’s basically the school director telling the kids to explore the island rather than doing classes, in a bid to get them all outside and, uh, learn… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 1

January 11, 2023December 27, 2022 Medic 0 Comments medic plays pokemon violet, playthrough, pokemon violet

Honestly. I’m beginning to realize that this game is going to take a while. Especially with so much to do. I’m not even at the capital yet… Anyway, let’s get going! So, after a stop at the light house, we now make our way to the next village, where I discover that Poke Centres have really been trimmed down. They don’t even have their own building, it’s more like going to a petrol station. Nemona meets us at the small village and asks me if I battled anyone. I didn’t, I was too busy catching the local fauna. I HAD… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 0

January 10, 2023December 26, 2022 Medic 0 Comments medic plays pokemon violet, playthrough, pokemon, violet

This Christmas, my lovely boyfriend was very generous and got me Pokemon Violet for Christmas. And of course I almost immediately started to play it. And just like I did with Pokemon Shield, I thought maybe this would be a good series of articles. So that’s what I’m doing, I’m playing through Pokemon Violet. And so far, it’s actually been a bit… weird. Like a strange roller coaster or something.= Anyway, let’s get started. We start off in a very nice, luxurious house. It seems quite large, especially for only two people. Maybe a third, but most Pokemon games don’t… [Continue Reading]

January 8, 2023December 25, 2022 Medic 0 Comments fear of missing out, fomo, pokemon

One of the larger things that keep people playing is FOMO. FOMO, short for Fear Of Missing Out, is a major problem, especially with video games. The worry is that you might miss on something insanely rare, important or powerful by not playing the game and not playing in various events. Pokemon GO is very guilty of this, especially since they are CONSTANTLY doing events with various new or costumed Pokemon. Luckily, here are a few things you can do to mitigate that fear of missing out. They are just costumes My first tip is actually pretty basic. There are… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Semi-Rare Pokemon from Pokemon GO

January 7, 2023December 23, 2022 Medic 0 Comments mewtwo, pokemon, pokemon go

In Pokemon GO, I have nearly 2000 Pokemon. While that number can be decreased, there’s also plenty of cool Pokemon in that collection. In fact, I have several pretty cool Pokemon that could actually be considered kinda rare. Here are some of them. Perfect Armoured Mewtwo Armoured Mewtwo is an odd one. The actual armour doesn’t actually look that great. In fact, it looks over-designed and nit at all comfy in any way. But this particular Armoured Mewtwo was actually a tie-in for a Pokemon movie that was coming out at the time. Either way, we actually haven’t seen this… [Continue Reading]

Mega Evolutions are actually good now in Pokemon GO

January 5, 2023December 21, 2022 Medic 0 Comments buff, mega evolution, mega pokemon, pokemon

When Mega Evolutions first came out in Pokemon GO, the system was genuinely not very good at all. The costs to Mega Evolve were really high, they didn’t last very long and getting mega candy was genuinely a chore. However, these days, Mega Pokemon are way more accessible. To the point that they are actually worth using. They last longer The first major change to Mega Evolutions was to make them last longer. Originally, Mega Pokemon only lasted for four hours, before turning back to normal. This was changed to 8 hours, which gives players plenty more time, especially in… [Continue Reading]

Sea of Thieves with the Siblings for the first time

January 4, 2023December 29, 2022 Medic 0 Comments family, fun, sea of thieves

Up until Christmas, I only really ever played Sea of Thieves with my great friend Bacxaber. Together, we’d sail the seas, kicking ass and getting tons of loot. The problem was, because of time zones, I’d have to stay up super late in order to play. Also, there’s a massive skill difference between Bacxaber’s level of play and my own. He’s a PvP master while I’m slow and only really know the basics. But over the Christmas break, I was gladly informed that my sister and her boyfriend had both purchased Sea of Thieves. So of course we had to… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon GO’s new Size Stats are Annoying

January 3, 2023December 19, 2022 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, size

One of the newer features in Pokemon GO’s winter updates was something to track the sizes of Pokemon. Normally, every caught Pokemon has a weight and height, but this update boosted the visibility, adding little ribbons for Pokemon are bigger or smaller. New sizes This update also introduced two more sizes. Your Pokemon can now be extra large or extra small. These do seem to be quite rare though. During the Community Weekend back in December, despite catching tons of Pokemon, I only saw a handful of extra small Pokemon. Didn’t see any extra large ones though. The game does… [Continue Reading]

Reaching Level 44 and the Uselessness of Levels after 40

January 2, 2023December 18, 2022 Medic 0 Comments grind, pokemon go

After a long, slow grind, I finally made my way to level 44 in Pokemon GO. It took me ages, and the last 100k of experience needed felt like wading through treacle, with how slow it felt. But I finally did the four tasks I needed to reach level 44, and I also finally had enough experience to actually level up. Some lucky people got free wins off me, thanks to me needing to play in the GO Battle League 20 times. But the other three challenges, I borrowed my brother’s phone and I did 90 games, 30 in each… [Continue Reading]

Happy 2023!

Yay, time for a new year! A new year, hopefully a new you. Or a better you. Your call. But yeah, 2023 is here and it might be good for a change. The last few years have been a bit sucky, but we can always hope for some improvement. Not just improvement on ourselves, but improvement world wide. Speaking of improvements, I’ve already decided on my new year’s resolutions. I’ve got a few actually. The first one is, as always, an attempt to actually lose weight. Because losing weight is difficult. Especially after we spent the holiday break stuffing our… [Continue Reading]
