First Impression of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

First Impression of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Nintendo has finally released the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild game was released called The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. And takes place roughly three years after the events in the previous game, so fans that played the previous game will see familiar areas but with a twist of the addition of sky and underground areas. Since, I haven't finished the game (and won't for some time), I figured I would give a first impression of this game versus giving a full review. So, there's not going to be a lot regarding the plot in this post.…

My Ranking of the Pokémon Games

My Ranking of the Pokémon Games

I've spent the vast majority of my life as a Pokemon fan. Is that to say I'm the best at the games? No. Does that mean I know every type matching off the top of my head? No. Does this mean I know every Pokemon and their basic stats? No. But that doesn't diminish how much time I've spent enjoying the games in this franchise. But, before I get into ranking the Pokemon games, I'd like to state that I have not played all of them. So, this will only be my ranking of the ones I've played in my lifetime. I'm going to divide my rankings into four categories: story, difficulty, replay value, and post-game.…

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Great Crater

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Great Crater

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet ends when you go into the Great Crater after the professor with Penny, Arven, and Nemona. Immediately, you get the sense that something is off. Koraidon or Miraidon will retreat and refuse to come out of their Pokéball the second you get into the crater. I won't go into spoilers of what happens plotwise, but I will be sharing how to get through the boss fight. Which happens after you go through the Great Crater and visit four research stations.…

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide Team Star & Cassiopeia

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide Team Star & Cassiopeia

Team Star is the big group that you face off against in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Unlike groups in past games, they aren't trying to take over the world, kidnap Pokémon, or stop your character in any way. They are a group of rebellious students who have a reputation for bullying students. In truth, they were the ones to stop the bullies but gained a bad reputation for doing so. They have the signature catchphrase of "Hasta la vistar." Your character is recruited by someone going by Cassiopeia to take the groups down by challenging their five bosses. Each of them is located at its own base, and getting through each section is the same.…

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide to the Elite Four and Champions

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide to the Elite Four and Champions

'Tis time for the Elite Four and Champion battles. The hardest battles in the game usually as it's the final test of strength with your pokémon team. I normally look up who I'm facing and what pokémon they have then focus on that group the entire game to ensure I will be strong enough to beat it.…

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide to the Gyms

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide to the Gyms

One of the three central storylines in Pokémon Scarlet/Violet is getting all of your gym badges, so you can face off against the Elite Four. I debated putting them together here, but I ultimately decided they were going to be separate posts. Similar to Pokémon Sword/Shield, you take on gym challenges before you face the actual gym leader. Sometimes these challenges involve facing off against trainers and other times they don't. It just depends on the gym. You also sometimes face off against your rival, Nemona, before or after the gym. So, you have to consider the possibility of running into her. Unlike the gyms themselves, Nemona's fights are scaled based on how many badges you currently have. I wish the gyms scaled like that too but they didn't. So, it's really easy to go in the wrong order without knowing it as the gym doesn't really tell you which order to go in.…

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide to the Titans & Arven Battle

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Guide to the Titans & Arven Battle

With the release of the newest Pokémon game (Scarlet and Violet), I absolutely love playing the game. Unlike some of the predecessors, this game has three main plotlines (gyms/elite four, titans, and team star). So, I'm going to be sharing a guide on most of those sections as I complete them here on my blog. I'm not sure if I'll do one on Team Star as they are pretty straightforward, but I could share what the boss Pokémon are in that. So, we'll see. But today, I'm sharing how to get through all the Titans as well as the final boss of this section.…

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl: Guide for Defeating the Gym Leaders & Elite Four

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl: Guide for Defeating the Gym Leaders & Elite Four

I recently got Pokemon Brilliant Diamond, so I thought I would do a little guide on the gyms that you have to go through during the course of the game. There is no difference between the games and the gym leaders. They are similar to the classic Diamond and Pearl games, so you go through the gyms to face the trainers before reaching the leader. There is no challenge or mission, or special feature of the gym like there was in Pokemon Sword/Shield.…
