Dittos don't exist. And if they do, then they are definitely not pretending to be anything I've caught.

Ditto Does Not Exist

September 16, 2018September 11, 2018 Medic 3 Comments ditto, pokemon go, rant

You know what? My shitty luck aside, I don’t mind the RNG in Pokemon GO. I don’t mind the rather random research, the minuscule chances to even see a shiny, the random stuff from Gyms and Pokestops. I don’t mind the fact that Pokemon have a chance to flee and sometimes refuse to stay in Pokeballs and all that. The only thing I’ve really complained about is being unable to catch Pokemon after defeating them in Raids, especially when I’ve thrown 5+ golden Razberries at them and they still escape, great curve balls or otherwise. But right now, I’ve been… [Continue Reading]

Even Pokemon GO Is Complicated

September 11, 2018September 5, 2018 Medic 0 Comments houndoom, pokemon, pokemon go

I wasn’t kidding when I said I’d never played a Pokemon game before Pokemon GO. Aside from basic Generation 1 Pokemon names and the games of the more poplar, later generation Pokemon, I had no idea about the more complicated stuff in Pokemon. The majority of my Pokemon knowledge comes from watching the old TV show back when I was 10 and ‘collecting’ Pokemon Cards (i.e. just getting the cards I liked). I also watched the same Pokemon show, dubbed badly into Greek when I was 12. Apart from that and some vague promo things like metal disc collectibles in… [Continue Reading]

More Rambling About Pokemon GO

September 1, 2018August 27, 2018 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, ramble, rng

Pokemon GO is something I kinda wish I jumped on earlier. But how could I have jumped on the bandwagon when I had no mobile data on my phone plan? It’s only been the last year or so that I’ve had 4G to use, and holy heck I have treated it like a scarce resource. To the point that I genuinely felt bad getting a €6 top up of 250MB. Because I’d used up my 150MB playing Pokemon GO. Yes, mobile data here is expensive. And free WI-FI areas are few and far between, assuming you can even connect in… [Continue Reading]

“Ya Wanna See Mah Pokemans?” Part 2 – Some More Pokemon GO

August 17, 2018August 13, 2018 Medic 0 Comments bad luck, eevee, pokemon, pokemon go

So I’ve been playing Pokemon GO for about a week now. To the point that I better understand how everything works. And I actually have some good Pokemon now. I’ve completed various things, am on part 3 of 8 when it comes to the Mew quest and am now level 20. It turns out, come level 20, that is when the real grind starts. Up until now, it’s all been rather easy. I’ve actually been leveling up all over the place. Things definitely felt slower around levels 17-19, but from about level 6 to level 10, it all happened so… [Continue Reading]

Growlithe, my third Pokemon after the default Charmander and my Ekans, was at that gym for 5 hours alongside sister's Growlithe and a stranger's Charizard.

“Ya wanna see mah pokemons?” – Medic Finally Tries Pokemon GO!

August 4, 2018August 12, 2018 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go

Once again, Medic is late to the bandwagon, to the point that most people have already gotten off the bandwagon. Luckily, Pokemon GO ties an incredibly popular franchise to something insanely simple and easy, to the point that it’d be hard for this silly mobile game to ever fall completely out of favour. Especially when there are a billion copycat games desperate to take its place. So yes, I finally tried Pokemon GO out properly. Technically, this is my first official Pokemon game, now I think about it. But yeah, how can you not like something that’s so simple? You… [Continue Reading]
