Speaking of gen 5 legends

When I was a kid I was convinced Keldeo was somewhere in the underwater ruin in Undella town. I spent hours searching there looking for it. Obviously I never found it.

I was so disappointed when I found out it was event only :079:
no Keldeo was unlocked with the magic of friendship

I was disappointed when it was one of the most annoying Poké Ball summons in Smash 😔

Minor correction: Keldeo is hilarious if I summon it first, it's only annoying if someone else gets it.
Can we maybe damage some of these legendary Pokemon next game like Assists? Like yeah we don't want people beating the **** out of Vulpix but can I deal with Kyogre trying to escort me to the blast zone at least?

That Kyogre summon haunts me. It's hilarious when it happens to somebody else but it's panic inducing when it happens to you.


Unpopular opinion: Everyone saying superhero movies will never fade away.

Yes they will, every decade had its genre. Pre-late 70s had westerns, late 70s/80s had horror and slashers, 90s had action, unsure of the 2000s and now the 2010s and currently is superheroes. This is not going to be any different.

Besides it's looking like either video games (I think this is going to reach its peak by the time of the animated Mario movie with Sonic and its upcoming sequel being the start) or nostalgia (Based on how many "belated" sequels are beginning to happen) will be the next best thing granted this likely won't be for a long while.

May I remind too that before the Sam Raimi Spider-man films and MCU became a thing, superhero movies weren't taken seriously for the most part even being somewhat laughed on.
I say this exact thing and i get laughed at by Marvel stans.

The 2000's had spy movies, i remember that period in school, many kids my age were into the spy or militaristic thing.

The legends are the most bs parr of Gen 5.

Like, we have an American region in New York, and they came up with legendaries based on a non-American concept?


They could've least made them a hotdog amd hamburger, a gun and beer, or something thay embodies the true spirit of America
Braviary was American enough.

KillerCage KillerCage In case you weren't aware, the next 4 episodes of Amphibia were put on Disney Plus.
I just saw them on Disney+ while I was looking for Hawkeye episode 6.
I'll watch them later tonight.
I'm almost done with the first season of Big Hero 6: the Series anyway.
If you enjoyed the original Teen Titans cartoon, I think you would enjoy BH6: the Series.

Wouldn’t You Like To Know?
I still wanna know why, despite Dragon Quest starting first and being more popular in Japan and having more titles at one point, Final Fantasy has 15 games and Dragon Quest has 11.
Final Fantasy is more popular internationally right? Makes sense SE would focus on it more.

Plus, from my understanding FF is a little more malleable with its setting and general style, whereas DQ is kinda set into similar combat and a fantasy setting.

Certainly a lot of things to take in, but firstly.

Trailer for Doctor Strange 2 is public now.

Looks like Dr. Strange is going to be within many battles within the Multiverse of Madness and it seems the Dark Hold is corrupting Wanda. In the trailer there are some brief shots of America Chavez and Mordo's new look.

Overall, this is something for me to look forward to next year pending on how the circumstances fare.

In addition, I watched the season finale episode of Hawkeye on Disney+ and all I will say is that I thoroughly enjoyed it. I will provide my thoughts within my next post.

This makes the game look MUCH nicer: The original game's rendering makes everything look so...Flat and de-saturated, for some reason: For a game about Colors, Ultimate's base rendering does everything it can to make things look muted. With a simple application of LightRoom, FakeHDR, and Clarity, the game can look much more alive and vibrant. The bloom definitely still needs tweaking IMO, but it's not entirely uncomplimentary: It gives off slight Wind Waker HD vibes this way.
Yo, that’s pretty dope. Like you said, I think the bloom should be tweaked a bit.

But it’s totally rad:sonic:

It's gonna be cool to see the MCU to have its first horror film which is Doctor Strange 2.

Hopefully this will separate it from the usual formula they go with. Nothing wrong with a little humor but try to put more effort in it like certain levity.

Yeah, I just gotta wait for Rainbow Mod Loader to update and allow functionality with Hedge Mod Manager again and I'll be able to install stuff that tweaks down the bloom. I honestly think once I do that (and then also use a mod that imports the Sonic Unleashed model), this'll probably be my preferred version of the game.

You're saying it like Wobuffets aren't amazing.



I'm gonna be honest, this is the first time I've ever seen someone attributing secondary gender characteristics to Reshiram and Zekrom.
That's actually a part of their concept. In an interview Sugimori stated that he intentionally designed Zekrom and Reshiram with masculine and feminine characteristics respectively. It's part of the duality angle he was going for as he wanted them to contrast in multiple respects.
