Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 6

I’ve kinda been ignoring Team Star for a bit. They’re basically a bunch of troublemakers that keep on skipping past. However, I decided to do one Team Star base to see what it’s like. It’s, well, weird.   So everything stars off as pretty normal. I go up to the gate and ask if I can come in. One of the grunts fights me with a Murkrow, then runs inside. The other grunt follows, informing everyone that I am here. So I walk into the place and it’s nothing special, just some stages and stuff. The challenge here is to… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 5

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]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 4

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]

Medic Plays Pokemon Violet – Part 3

I’m gonna be honest, I’m a little bit lost. I can’t decide what I actually want to do, and instead I’ve just been wandering around. Since part 2 all I have really done is go from pokecenter to pokecenter, unlocking waypoints to be able to fly to later on. So here’s what I’ve been up to. The major thing I have been doing is catching Pokemon. Anything new I come across, I grab my Pokeballs and try to weaken them down so I can catch them. This has been going quite well with Ringo the Weed Cat, mostly just using… [Continue Reading]

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

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]

Dratini Classic Community Day

Classic Community Days are odd. They bring back an old Pokemon from a previous Community Day and basically do it all again. For November, our classic Pokemon was Dratini, the cute little snakey dragon Pokemon. I happen to really like Dratini and Dragonair, so a chance to stock up on fresh shinies is nice. But this classic day was slightly odd. Cute shiny, mediocre move Dratini has one of the cutest shinies in Pokemon, especially in Gen 1. It goes a wonderful bright pink, matching its pink eyes. Dragonair is just as beautiful, and is one of my favourite Pokemon,… [Continue Reading]
