Spotlight Hours in Pokemon GO

June 10, 2023May 31, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, spawns, spotlight hour

Every Tuesday in Pokemon GO, we get a spotlight hour. During the spotlight hour, 99% of spawns turn into one specific species of Pokemon, starting from 6pm local time until 7pm local time. But are they worth doing? Or are they a waste of time? It depends on the Pokemon It really, really depends on the Pokemon. There have been all sorts of Pokemon in spotlight hours, ranging from Minun and Plusle to heavy hitters like Beldum. Generally though, the spotlight Pokemon is related to whatever event is currently going on. For example, during the last Rocket Takeover, Skorupi was… [Continue Reading]

Cheap Alternatives to Expensive Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon GO

June 9, 2023May 30, 2023 Medic 0 Comments cheap, not legendary, pokemon go

These days, Legendary Pokemon are most often the best choice. They tend to be just too good at what they do, which is mostly just killing things. However, here are some nice budget Pokemon for your raiding pleasure. Machamp These days, the best fighting type is Terrakion, who recently got Sacred Sword, a very strong fighting move. Before Terrakion though, we had the rather expensive and rare Lucario and Conkeldurr. Both of which were somewhat rare and a pain in the ass to get candy for. Luckily though, our old buddy Machamp is here to save the day. It hatches… [Continue Reading]

The Shadow Mewtwo Event Should Have Been A Proper Raid Event

June 8, 2023May 29, 2023 Medic 0 Comments mewtwo, raid, shadow mewtwo, shadow raid, team rocket

On June 27th and 28th 2023, we had an event featuring Shadow Mewtwo in 5-star raids. The event was alright, but it could have been so much better. Here’s how I would have done the event. But first, let’s quickly discuss the actual event. Just a normal day There were no special boosts or anything for the weekend. It was part of the Team Rocket takeover event that introduced shadow raids in general. This would have been fine, but the raid pool was filled with not just Mewtwo, but the 1-star and 3-star shadow raids as well. At least, that… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon I Like But Don’t Know Why

June 7, 2023May 28, 2023 Medic 2 Comments favorite, pokemon go, weird

There are a huge amount of Pokemon to love and enjoy, but there’s also plenty of unusual picks for favorite Pokemon. For me, since most of my knowledge about Pokemon comes from Pokemon GO, I’ve got some odd favorites of my own. And most of them are shiny, since shinies are more common in Pokemon GO. Anyway, here are some Pokemon I genuinely like, but don’t really know why. Shiny Skiploom Isn’t Skiploom cute? I don’t really know why, but Skiploom is utterly adorable, it’s got four little stubby legs, big flappy ears and a flower on its head that… [Continue Reading]

The Difference Between CMYK and RGB

June 5, 2023May 26, 2023 Medic 0 Comments cmyk, colour, rgb

When it comes to the world of colour, there’s a lot of different types of colour. Two of the most important types of colour are RGB and CMYK. And these are very different from each other, but can easily be mixed up. Let’s take a look. RGB RGB stands for Red, Green and Blue. The values of each of these colours is from 0 to 255, with 0 being the darkest and 255 being the lightest. Black can be made with Red: 0 Green: 0 and Blue: 0. White can be made with all three values being 255. RGB is… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon GO’s Season 10 Has Kinda Sucked

June 4, 2023May 25, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go, rant, season

Season 10: Rising Heroes has sucked. It’s been an all-round mediocre season with not much going on. In fact,it’s been so boring that I’m actually writing about it. This season not only has been boring, but it’s also been limiting, and not much good has actually happened. But why? The seasonal spawns suck It’s been nothing but fricking Pidove, with a smattering of Starly, Weedle, Caterpie and the odd Patrat. Pidove seemed to take up most of the spawns. In windy weather, it and Starly made up most of the spawns, aside from the odd Drifbloon. And of course there’s… [Continue Reading]

Purifying 1000 Pokemon

June 3, 2023May 24, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, purify, shadow pokemon

Quite a while back, I mentioned how I defeated an absolute ton of Team Rocket grunts. I did this for two reasons: one, it was fun, and two, I wanted the platinum medal for defeating grunts. At the time though, I also mentioned how I needed to complete the Purification badge as well, but that would be a long, dull journey. Well, finally, over two years later, I managed to get the platinum medal for purifying Pokemon. And boy, did it take a while. But I finally did it. I now have the platinum Purifier medal. I have purified 1000… [Continue Reading]

Over 2500 Published Articles

June 1, 2023May 22, 2023 Medic 1 Comment

Well, I made an oopsie. I didn’t realize how many articles I’ve published. No, it’s not over 9000, but it’s still a pretty high number. I may have missed it, but I have written over 2500 articles for the Daily SPUF. That’s quite a lot since we (somewhat) recently hit 3500 articles total on the Daily SPUF. Normally, I’d be celebrating, but frankly, now I’ve past the milestone, it’s not quite as fun. Celebrating your 2503rd article isn’t nearly as fun as celebrating my 2500th article. That being said, I’ve gone and celebrated my 2000th article and my old 1000th… [Continue Reading]

Elite Raids Are Meh

May 31, 2023May 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments elite, legendary pokemon, pokemon go, raid

Elite raids are a bit of a new feature. Simply put, they are designated raids that feature a specific Legendary Pokemon at a specific time. Currently, Hoopa Unbound, Regieleki and Regidraco are the Pokemon that have featured in these raids. They have special red eggs and appear at specific times. But how are they? Well, they had a rocky start. When Hoopa appeared in Elite Raids, the boss was insanely tough. Being only really weak to bug types, it took a lot of players to take down. But what made matters worse was how buggy the raids were. Connection issues… [Continue Reading]

No Fun PvE for Overwatch 2

May 30, 2023May 28, 2023 Medic 0 Comments overwatch, overwatch 2

I’m a very casual player when it comes to Overwatch 2. I occasionally play along with my boyfriend, who is much better than me. Of course, I play as a support character, because that’s what I’m best at. But I’m not really a huge fan of the PvP stuff. I much prefer cooperative game modes. Now, back before Overwatch 2 existed, we were told that Overwatch 1 would have something more PvE-oriented. There were plans to have a whole cooperative game mode, complete with skill trees and fancy things like that. This was back in 2019, which feels like forever… [Continue Reading]
