Alola begins anew

Alola begins anew

It may only be a year after we were first introduced to the Alola region in Pokémon Sun and Moon...

New Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Information: Snuggling with death

As we come down to the wire, just a week away from the release of the games facilitating our second romp into the Alola region, I can't help but reflect a little on the fact that I've probably missed out on talking about the build-up trailers more often than not. It's a shame given how … Continue reading New Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Information: Snuggling with death

New Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Information: Surfing Alola

On September 13 there was a Nintendo Direct. A rather long one, standing strong at 45 minutes worth of information regarding games of all shapes and sizes.

With a brand new Pokémon Direct this morning comes a brand new reason to get hyped up for the holiday season! https://youtu.be/gvhUgC0f_tU While the Direct itself is only about 8 minutes long, with half of that time filled up by a rather long trailer, there are still … Continue reading My thoughts on the June 6, 2017 Pokémon Direct

Marshadow, coming soon to Pokémon Sun and Moon

Marshadow, coming soon to Pokémon Sun and Moon

I'll be honest, life has kind of been stressing me out lately. A lot. Between classes throwing exams, papers and more at me while the semester winds down, four days of work at the Daily Titan constantly trying to keep sinking ships afloat (Since, as I like to say, news is and always will be … Continue reading Marshadow, coming soon to Pokémon Sun and Moon

A Pokémon update: Here comes the Bank and the Alola Friendly competition

The first week of school, adjusting to new courses, setting up things for our first few issues of the Daily Titan and some personal things happening at home have kept me incredibly busy for the past week or so.  In fact, they've kept me so busy that I haven't been able to address some fairly … Continue reading A Pokémon update: Here comes the Bank and the Alola Friendly competition
