On Pies

January 26, 2023January 30, 2023 Medic 3 Comments pie

I love pies. Stick anything fitting into a pie crust and I will definitely eat it. Doesn’t matter what the filling is either. Sweet or savory, I love it. There’s something very comforting about some nice pastry with a tasty filling, especially when it’s warm and fresh from the oven. There’s so much you can do with a pie. But although they seem simple enough at a glance, turns out that a lot of work goes into making a pie. I just wish making a pie wasn’t such a pain. Well, it’s not a pain, but it’s also not completely… [Continue Reading]

Little Things I Want in the Sea of Thieves

January 25, 2023January 12, 2023 Medic 0 Comments sea of thieves

Sea of Thieves is already a game brimming with content, but there’s always some little things that I want to see in the game. Little things that would boost player morale. Tons more clothes and facial hair Sea of Thieves already has a fuckton of cosmetics. However, most of those cosmetics generally quite… captain-y. Most players tend to look pretty fancy, or they are basically naked while showing off tattoos. But there’s very little left in the middle. Pirate gear that pirates would actually wear. Years back, there was a clothing leak that would have fixed this issue entirely. And… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays D&D for the First Time In A Year

January 24, 2023January 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments cat, d&d, dnd, dungeons and dragons

It’s been a long, long time since I properly played Dungeons and Dragons. So when my sister messaged me with a campaign idea she’d had, I jumped at the idea. For the first time in over a year, we would finally get the group back together and play. Well, we were playing online via Discord, but you get what I mean. After a long time discussing characters, we settled on three characters: Regret, a Tiefling Spore Druid with ties to the Fey Lands; Leoric, a Wood Elf Rogue who also has ties with the Fey Lands; and finally, me, Milo,… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 5

January 23, 2023January 10, 2023 Medic 0 Comments playthrough, pokemon, pokemon violet

So I’ve been playing Pokemon Violet for a bit now, and I have realized that there’s more to life than unlocking Pokecenters so I can fly to them. Now it’s time to make some actual progress, and that involves going to the next gym. Mostly so I can start catching more Pokemon and have them listen to me. The next gym, located in Artazon is a grass gym, with an addiction to Sunflora. Seriously, there are so many statues of them lying around. They’re about as obsessed with Sunflora as the previous gym was with Smoliv. And, of course, just… [Continue Reading]

Larvitar Community Day Classic

January 22, 2023January 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, larvitar, pokemon go

The Larvitar family is a pretty interesting one. Alongside the Beldum family, these Pokemon are the only pseudo-Legendary Pokemon that aren’t dragon types for a change. They’re also definitely great Pokemon overall, and they have Mega Evolutions too. So it’s worth grabbing Larvitars whenever you can. Finally, a chance to get some Larvitar shinies For me, I’ve actually only managed to catch 3 shiny Larvitars in the past. Despite catching a LOT of Larvitars, the shinies not so much ellude me but beg to have a few more in my collection. This event allowed me to get a shiny Tyranitar… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 4

January 21, 2023January 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments playthrough, pokemon, pokemon violet

This is the part in which I go to every Pokecenter on the island of Paldea. Why? I don’t really know, I just like having easy-to-access teleporting between locations. In fact, I actually do that in a lot of games I play. Unlocking new areas is always fun. What started all of this was actually quite simple. I was riding Miraidon and decided to jump over a wall in Mesagoza to see what happened. Turns out, I ended up at the Pokecenter next to the Pokemon League. I probably wasn’t supposed to be there, but I took it as a… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon That Would Be Awesome If They Had Better Moves

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

Not all Pokemon are equal. And not all Pokemon get added to Pokemon GO. But sometimes Pokemon are added and they turn out to be completely useless. Normally, this applies to ‘early game’ Pokemon like Pidgey or Weedle, but it turns out that even legendary Pokemon can be completely screwed over, just because they don’t have a good selection of moves to choose from. Here are five unlucky Pokemon that are really missing out. Xerneas Xerneas is one of my favourite legendary Pokemon, but it’s in a terrible state currently. As I mentioned in this article, Xerneas is stuck with… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon That Are Useless But I Don’t Have the Heart to Transfer them

January 19, 2023January 5, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, shiny

Really, Pokemon GO is a pretty grim game. The majority of Pokemon you collect, they are chucked away and transferred, because they’re not very useful. Only the cream of the crop are allowed to stick around, and eventually even some of the better Pokemon get transferred away, to make space for Pokemon that are slightly better. Otherwise, in the end, you run out of backpack space. So space had to be made and Pokemon have to be sacrificed. Despite all this, I am a bit of a hoarder of Pokemon. I have so many that I’ve meant to transfer and… [Continue Reading]

An Early Pokemon Interlude

January 16, 2023January 5, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon

So I’ve been playing Pokemon Violet for a bit now, and I have some thoughts. I haven’t gotten too far into the game, I’ve only done the first titan and first gym. I feel though that I’ve had enough experience to question what I’ve seen. First things first, this whole game is just like the wild areas in Pokemon Sword and Shield, just with added towns. Even Pokecenters are no longer buildings, instead every Pokecenter is a shack, with a TM machine and a shop to buy Pokeballs and stuff. A side effect of this is that the towns feel… [Continue Reading]

A Nice Walk in the Dark

January 15, 2023December 30, 2022 Medic 0 Comments night, pokemon go, ramble

I consider myself a fortunate person. I live in a country where going out at night is mostly safe. The most likely thing to get you is a car that doesn’t stop at red lights. And because it’s so calm, I can also go out and play some Pokemon GO as well. It’s very pleasant. However, currently, it’s cold, and it gets dark quite early. We are in the middle of winter, after all. But the darkness can be a little depressing. This is where Pokemon GO comes into play, chewing away at my more negative feelings. It’s nice, just… [Continue Reading]
