Why is shiny hunting so important in Pokemon? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Shiny hunting has been pretty popular in the Pokemon community for a long time now. For those of you who may not know, shiny hunting is when a player encounters many wild Pokemon at a time so they can find a shiny Pokemon. This can take hours at a time, especially if you can't escape a battle. Lowering a shiny Pokemon's health until they can be easily caught is also tricky, so players will often save as soon as they see a shiny Pokemon in case they need to try again. Shiny hunting isn't necessary for playing the game, since shiny Pokemon are just differently colored Pokemon. But, it's still important to fans because it's very rewarding when they do finally catch the Pokemon they're looking for. I don't really understand spending hours of time trying to catch a specific Pokemon, but I do understand the excitement of stumbling upon a shiny Pokemon and then being able to catch it. So, I think as long as someone enjoys doing it, it's worth the time spent. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! With the release of the most recent Pokemon game, a lot of fans are excited about the recent mega evolutions. Other fans are disappointed in some things, like some of the mega evolutions looking odd, and the game seems to have a mandatory autosave feature; which can affect shiny hunting. However, I don't want to talk about all of that today. Instead, I'd like to talk about what I want to see in the next mainline game. I'd like to see a bigger variety of Pokemon, new type combinations, and maybe a new feature. I'd especially like to see new type combinations, since there's a few that still haven't been tried yet. I don't want a new type entirely, I just want to see fresh combinations. I'd also love to see new Eevee evolutions, since fans have been waiting for them for years now. A new feature would also keep the games fresh, and I really wish they would stop making the games feel like baby games even though they know the majority of their audience is way too old for that. It'd be nice to see an older protagonist too, but that's not likely. All in all, I think I'd mostly like to see a newer Pokemon game that feels like the old ones. They were much more creative, and didn't try to guide you every single step of the way. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I know it's unlikely anything will change, but I wanted to talk about it anyways. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! I've talked about Homestuck on here a couple of times before. But, recently a few people have been calling the upcoming potential animated series an anime, so I thought I should clear some things up. Firstly, Homestuck was very popular in general, but it was also popular with anime fans. Because of this, it's been an ongoing joke that Homestuck will eventually get an anime. It has a pretty action packed story, so it would make sense for an anime plot. However, the actual series will not be an anime. The art style is closer to the original art style, but it's more average and less squashed. The characters in the webcomic were often drawn as small and squashed, but the characters themselves are supposed to be more proportionate; so the animated series will be using those versions while still keeping the original feel of it. It likely won't have many anime references either, and the people calling it an anime are just joking. Everyone knows it's not actually an anime. So if you were hoping it'd be an anime, I'm sorry to disappoint you. The animation is still good and fluid though, and it does still have quite a bit of action in it if that's something you'd like. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Twisted Wonderland is getting an English dub! Yes, it's true! After years of waiting, we finally have an English voice cast! The entire cast has already been chosen, as well. Of course this only extends to the anime at the moment, but it's still good news! I don't think this means they'll be fully redoing the game. It's been going for a long time, and redoing all of the voice lines would be a hassle. However, this is still good news. It means we won't have to wait for an English release for the anime. It may sound odd to longtime players, but I think so far they've done a pretty good job of picking voices. Though I am a little disappointed Cater's English voice is so low. But other than that, it sounds good so far. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the other characters sound, and the full voice cast has been revealed in the description of the official trailer for people who can't wait. As always, I will be including the link for the English dub trailer below so you all can see it. Enjoy!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about shiny Pokemon. For those of you who don't know, shiny Pokemon are Pokemon with different colors than usual. They're pretty rare, so fans like to have their favorites. My personal favorite is shiny Umbreon. However, I also like shiny Pokemon that have very different colors. Specifically, it's pretty cool when green grass Pokemon gain fall colors when they're shiny. But this almost never happens. A lot of shiny Pokemon are actually pretty disappointing. When they first came out, it was really interesting to see differently colored Pokemon. But now, the Pokemon Company just expects you to get excited about them being shiny, rather than putting effort into them. There are some shiny Pokemon that aren't even that different from their regular versions, so you can't even tell they're shiny anyways. I think a shiny Pokemon should have very different colors to make it obvious what they are. This way it makes it more obvious, while also giving players a reason to want it in the first place. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

What's wrong with dating sims? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! I've had a problem with dating sims for a little while now, but I couldn't figure out why. However, I recently realized the issue. Dating sims just aren't personal anymore. They're supposed to be first person dating simulators, but they just aren't. Instead, you play as a protagonist with a set appearance, a history, a backstory, and extremely limited options. A lot of the protagonists even have pre-set names if you don't change it. You don't get to pick who you are, and you don't get to act the way you usually do. They aren't dating simulators anymore, they're just a romance novel. Maybe adding more things would be difficult, but it's been done before. And they don't have to add a lot of things, or change a lot of the story. Having three or four very different options allows people to choose what to say, and it doesn't have to affect the story, since it would only affect the current dialogue. It's also easy to have a faceless protagonist, or be able to choose what they look like. Twisted Wonderland does a good job of having a faceless protagonist, and it doesn't even confirm the player's gender. It also provides two or more completely different options so you can pick whichever one is right for you. This is impressive, especially since Twisted Wonderland isn't even a dating sim. It just proves it's not that difficult to make an immersive story. Companies just don't do it anymore. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I mainly made this post because of What In Hell Is Bad, which is probably one of the least immersive games I've ever played. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
