Pokemon Go Max Battle Tips

I was a bit skeptical on Max Battles at first, but I find now, I really like them. They feel like raids with better mechanics, and they are just more interactive than just, throwing a ball. The design also feels right enough that the proper team make up can seriously make or break a victory or a loss, unlike Raids, where you are effectively just, competing against the clock. I have managed to do enough of these now I feel like it may be worth throwing out some general tips I have collected. Its not always guaranteed, but it helps.…

Tanking in Pokemon Go For Fun and Profit

So, I am.not a fan of PVP in Pokemon Go, better known as Battle League. Like, at all. However, there is a goofy Luchador Pikachu, locked behind Battle League, that I am a fan of. Apparently, the current season is some sort of special truncated season, which means that in order to get Luchador Pikachu, you only need to get to Rank 20, and not Rank 25. As far as I can tell, this means getting 107 Wins. Also, on top of that, it also means getting 3 wins out of 5 during one round, to unlock the Pikachu itself.…

The process should have been easy but I ran into a few issues. Specifically, after installing…

Review – Movie – Pokemon: Detective Pikachu (2019)

Pokemon ventures into the live action realm that's popular lately with Detective Pikachu. It's loosely based on the 3DS title of the same name, though there are quite a few changes to the plot and characters. The film follows Tim Goodman who teams up with a talking Pikachu, voiced by Ryan Reynolds as a wisecracking PG Deadpool. They set out to solve the mystery of Tim's father's death but end up unraveling a larger conspiracy. The general plot is pretty straight forward and predictable. There are very few real twists and none of them feel particularly shocking, even probably the…

Pokemon Go Go-tcha Band

So, I should preface a bit by saying, I am a very casual level player of Pokemon Go.  I mean maybe I am overestimating the level of most players, but I often see people talking about burning through hundreds of Pokemon and eggs and stardust to maximize this or that.  There are gyms an raids that I barely ever participate in.  My interest in Pokemon Go extends mostly to "It's Pokemon" because it's not really Pokemon.  It's more, incentivized walking.  Which is also why I care about Pokemon Go, at all.  Primarily I "play" at lunch, I eat, I go…
