So, "THEORETICALLY" speaking, if I had the option to get Shining Pearl for like, 15 bucks, would it be worth it alone just for access to a spare Cresselia/Heatran and Darkrai in PLA?
Shiny hunting Darkrai and Shaymin was low key my main reason for buying these games originally. So from a collecting standpoint, yes lol.

Yeah, I'm in agreeance with this. I'd love to see a black character in Smash, but given that Smash is reflective of the greater gaming industry, it ain't happening anytime soon. And that's on the gaming industrt being behind the times, and to this day it's still super far behind.

Like name 10 notable black video game characters that aren't from GTA.

Games are pretty peak, get acquantied if you can.
If side characters count

Eddy Gordo
Jax
Jade
TJ Combo
Elena
Sean
Laura
Bruce Irvin
Demoman(Not that TF2 has an actual MC tho)
Lucio
Doomfist
Sena
Barret
Sazh

MCs

James Heller
AC Origins Guy
AC Liberation Girl
That new guy from Prince of Persia
DeathLoop Man
BD Joe(Kinda)
Afro Thunder
Thunder Ray
The guy from that other Punch-Out like game

With the new Yakuza game having a Vtuber as one of it's antagonists and Ichiban being a manchild who views the world as an anime RPG game i fully expect us to actually fight her at some point.

In-universe we would be fighting the person behind the Vtuber but Ichiban with his mental condition just sees himself fighting the Vtuber.

No but really. Ogre Outsin' is really ****ing broken, only held back by being nearly impossible to do solo on higher difficulties. The fact that Mochi are 1:1 with Vitamins is crazy.

I’ve only dealt with her for 2 Persona games and I think she might be my favorite velvet room icon (unless Lavenza does some funny **** in Tactica to win me back again).

I plan of following up that lawsuit with one of my own. I am going to sue Game Freak for releasing the Teal Mask DLC for Scarlet / Violet, as it perpetuates the falsehood that they can be considered 'games' rather than 'alphas'. This is blatant false advertisement.

I like how the velvet room attendants typically complement their respective hero but Elizabeth is just a little gremlin.

Beat the Teal Mask. Story was pretty short but it seems it was just an appetizer for Indigo Disk.


  • Ngl, Carmine and Kieran didn't really catch me as the main game rivals. Now I am glad they're in DLC 2 because otherwise I didn't really feel anything aside that mental illness clearly runs in the family.
  • Ogerpon, however, is my baby.
  • Idk how to feel on the trio, I don't think they had much time to develop in game. Backstory was pretty neat tho.
  • Soundtrack was alright, not as good as base game.
  • Briar is so clearly evil that I think it's more than likely a fakeout.
  • Idk what that ending was but Kieran going full anime rival/villian is kinda hilarious.
Overall, it was alright. Nothing special, just a standard Pokemon adventure. DLC 2 is where all the focus seems to be, can't wait to visit Unova again

Kieran going full on Light Yagami wasn't what I expected but it seems like the fans are eating that **** up.
