On Using Low Forma Warframe Builds

I don’t like using Forma on my Warframes. Having done so much leveling stuff up over the years, I generally dislike the idea of having to level something again. I’m Legendary Rank 2 and have done my fair share of leveling things up, and using Forma means exactly that, more leveling. I also dislike having things that are not leveled up, they look messy in my arsenal, and the only weapons I allow to be under-leveled are Kuva and Tenet weapons, which require five Forma EACH. While I don’t mind leveling weapons that much, I really dislike leveling Warframes for… [Continue Reading]

The Least Interesting Pokemon GO Event Bonuses

For events, there’s always some sort of little bonus. Sometimes the bonuses can be huge, like the x4 stardust and experience during the Paldea event in the season Adventures Abound. That bonus was insane, and I played a lot of that event to make the most of the massive boosts. Normally though, bonuses are a little calmer. In an event, you’ll probably get just one bonus, like x2 candy on catching Pokemon, or the more skill-based extra candy based on your quality of throw. But some bonuses just aren’t very good. Increased Chance of XL Candy I’ve seen this event… [Continue Reading]

Season Ten Is Alright

Season 10 of Sea of Thieves has finally come out, way after Season 9 wore out its welcome. It brings some new features and a bunch of quality of life changes, with the biggest new thing being guilds. But is Season 10 any good? Well… First things first, we haven’t gotten all of Season 10 yet. For reasons unknown, the three biggest features have been split into three parts. Part 1, guilds, are already out. The new PvP-ish mission will come out in November, while Safer Seas isn’t coming until December. What we’ve been given are some of the QoL… [Continue Reading]

Closing in on the Master Ball Timed Research

On September 1st 2023, a new timed research appeared in Pokemon GO. This timed research consisted of a list of tasks, designed to be done over the course of the season. And the reward for it all? A Master Ball. The ball that can catch anything. The timed research is very important because it’s a way to get a second Master Ball in Pokemon GO, after some special research earlier in the year. And yes, you can have 2 Master Balls. Either way, Niantic are making us work very hard to get this Master Ball. I’ve already written about this… [Continue Reading]

“Once Safer Seas comes out, will you ever play High Seas again?”

Sometimes, asking questions is a good thing. Forums and sites like Reddit and Discord can give you all sorts of information if you ask a good question. The other day, I had a question of my own. After reading a post in r/seaofthieves with the announcement of Safer Seas, I was curious on how many people would remain in Safer Seas and whether they’d return to High Seas once they’d reached their goals. So I basically just went ahead and asked the question. “Once Safer Seas comes out, will you ever play High Seas again?” I got a LOT of… [Continue Reading]

A Weird Halloween Two-Parter

Every game right now is having its Halloween event. Halloween is a massive holiday in gaming, even if you don’t live in the US, Canada or Europe. Which is nice because, where I live, we don’t really celebrate Halloween. However, Pokemon GO is having a weird two-part event for Halloween. Halloween part 1 and Halloween part 2. So far, we’ve just been given Halloween part 1. However, there’s not really much in it. It’s mostly just a bunch of ghost type Pokemon, and the return of the Halloween map from last year. Although I noticed that, during the day, the… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon That Should Always Be Available

These days, most research tasks that ask you to catch Pokemon generally have a wide variety to catch. You’ll see tasks like “catch X fire type Pokemon” for example. During the Paldea event though, we had a “Catch 15 Nymble” challenge for some star dust. That research task was a bit odd, especially since it was just a normal research task. In special research tasks though, having to catch a specific Pokemon is a more common task. For example, for the Meltan special research, you need to catch some Gulpin and Slugma, because they are rather liquid-y, the same way… [Continue Reading]

On Catching 100 Different Species of Pokemon

In both the Paldean Adventure special research and the Master Ball timed research, there is a particular task that I thought would be quite difficult. The task is to catch 100 different species of Pokemon. Now, I originally assumed that this task would be difficult. After all, most events only spawn like 5-6 different Pokemon, and the time between events, the spawns aren’t much better. However, I got this research task for A Paldean Adventure only a few days ago (at the time of writing) and I’ve somehow pretty much finished it. And this was just after the Psychic Spectacular… [Continue Reading]

My First Zygarde Cell

Zygarde is a Pokemon with multiple forms. It starts off as a single cell, it grows into a dog, it then evolves into a draconic snake, before changing into its 100% form, which looks like some cool humanoid monster with tassles. In Pokemon GO, while we don’t get the single cell form, the A to Zygarde research gives us a 10% Zygarde, the little doggy form. In order to evolve it, we needs Zygarde Cells, which we catch in a Zygarde Cube. But this process is… tedious. To evolve your Zygarde 10% into a Zygarde 50%, you need 50 Zygarde… [Continue Reading]

Timburr Community Day

Fighting type Pokemon are very valuable when it comes to raiding and PvP. There’s a lot of stuff weak to fighting, so you need a good team. So Timburr Community Day was a good chance to stock up on some good fighting types. Ranked pretty near at the top, this fighting type is a perfect candidate for any fighting-based raid. So it was definitely worth doing. Especially with the double candy and double stardust bonuses. Conkeldurr, the final evolution of Timburr, is a pure fighting type Pokemon. It’s nearly as strong as Lucario and Terrakion, while also a bit more… [Continue Reading]
