Can we take a moment to appreciate the biology of the Bonsly? According to the Sword & Shield Pokédex, Bonsly “expels both sweat and tears from its eyes. The sweat is a little salty, while the tears have a slight bitterness.” So this little rock that’s shaped like a bonsai is crying all the time, but not because it’s sad. It’s just sweating. Which is in no way an improvement....
Legendaries are typically more magical than most standard species in the Pokemon series. Their attacks and stats aim to match this, with the most magical stat being the Special Attack stat. This determines its ranged and mystical powers in battle, allowing them to use abilities that outclass nearly every other Pokemon in existence. The average stats of Legendary Pokemon have grown massively in recent games, with both new species and new forms of older Pokemon hitting incredible heights....
There are many legendary Pokemon that have appeared throughout the Pokemon series. With Pokemon GO currently having Kyogre and Groudon as tier five raid bosses for the Hoenn Celebration Event, many are able to once again witness the power behind these beasts. Groudon was the box art legendary for the original release of Pokemon Ruby. It returned again as the center of a Pokemon game’s box art with the remake of Pokemon Ruby, Pokemon Omega Ruby....
More shiny Pokemon are coming to Pokemon GO with Castform being the Pokemon getting a new shiny form. What makes this so special, however, is that Castform already had a shiny form available in-game. In the majority of Pokemon games up until Pokemon HOME, Castform’s shiny form did not affect its alternate forms for the different weather conditions. Pokemon GO, however, is finally letting players catch Castform with special shiny palettes for these alternate forms....
Pokemon Go released nearly two years ago now, and compared to its lifespan shiny pokemon are a recent addition to the game. Players who have been hoping to encounter the rarer variations of their favorite pokemon may be in luck, as new evidence that shiny Pokemon from generation 1 and generation 2 will be flooding Pokemon GO. While there is no direct confirmation from Niantic on when or how these new pokemon will be implemented into the game, the information comes from a well known dataminer named Chrales, who often leaks news on Pokemon GO HUB....
Pokemon GO is having a big summer and the mobile AR game has even more excitement lined up after the massive Throwback Celebration 2020 wraps up. As some recent teases and datamined intel have suggested, the popular mobile game is about to roll out updates for both the Raid and Gift system that will offer players some fun, new options. An official press release from Pokemon GO confirms that Gift Stickers are on the way to the game and offers some more details about the upcoming Raid Invite system that has been hinted at in the past....
As predicted, just about a week after Pokemon GO’s Halloween extravaganza officially wrapped up, the mobile AR title is already rolling out its next special event starting today. The Hatchathaon focuses on some special appearances in Eggs and offers players a chance to prepare for Gen 4 evolutions and add a new shiny to their collections. The Pokemon GO Hatchathon event is putting some special Pokemon in 2km Eggs to help the community stockpile candy needed for Gen 4 evolutions....
While some fans of video games can get pretty heated about them, most don’t end up assaulting their friends over them. But like the teen arrested for threatening to blow up Konami, there is always that person that takes it way too far. Now, a man in Hokkaido has been arrested for assault and property damage against a friend over the mobile game Pokemon GO. Pokemon GO is a mobile game where players catch Pokemon and battle against NPCs and other players to take over gym locations and get prizes....
Pokemon GO trainers have had an exciting week that came along with a rollercoaster of highs and lows. The community was buzzing with excitement when Mega Evolutions and Mega Raids were announced, but it didn’t take long for some players to start to feel a little frustrated by the low drop rates of Mega Energy in comparison to the high cost of Mega Evolving a Pokemon repeatedly. That said, things seem to have at least partially turned around very quickly with Niantic responding to fan complaints and committing themselves to revising the Mega system to make it more user friendly....
I’m extremely excited for Pokemon Legends Arceus, an experience that Game Freak has evidently been building up to for several years. I’ve seen loads of comparisons to Breath of the Wild and a ton of excitement about the return to Sinnoh. I don’t really care about the former, although the latter strikes a real chord with me given that I specifically wrote about wanting to revisit existing regions in different time periods - sort of like arriving at the volcanic wasteland of Cinnabar Island in Gen 2....
We’re getting a few new Pokemon games in the near future, and while I do have a soft spot for New Pokemon Snap, by far the most exciting is Pokemon Legends Arceus. The open world game we’ve always wanted seems like it’ll be the first Pokemon game to dare to be different, much like Rogue One was for Star Wars. I hope that in reinventing the Pokemon wheel, it remembers to make room for misfits....
Pokemon Sword and Shield released last winter on the Nintendo Switch bringing with it a cast of colorful characters. There are new guides like Professor Magnolia and a dashing champion in Leon to name a few. One of the most memorable people in the recent Pokemon games was Hop: this generation’s rival character. While opinions of this character are mixed, most of the fanbase has a strong opinion of the chipper young man for one reason or another....
Introduced in generation two of Pokemon, Sun Stones only can evolve five Pokemon out of the total of 898. Finding the right Pokemon for the stone can be a needle in a haystack without looking up answers online. With each new generation that adds more Pokemon, it will only get harder as well. The Sun Stone typically evolves Grass-type Pokemon, as they make for most of the Pokemon to use the stone out of the five....
Developer Level-5 has announced that Professor Layton and the Unwound Future HD will be coming to smartphones on July 13, 2020. Available for both Android and iOS, this is the conclusion of the Layton series that originally released on the Nintendo DS back in 2008. It also happens to be the very best game in the series, so this is certainly exciting. As with both The Curious Village HD and The Diabolical Box HD, this new port features redone visuals to make use of your phone’s higher resolution screen....
After PUBG Mobile was recently banned alongside a variety of other Tencent and NetEase apps in India, PUBG Corp has decided to rescind the former’s publishing rights in order to reintroduce the game to India itself. The news comes from the official PUBG blog, where the popular shooter’s developers have published a statement about PUBG Mobile being taken off the App Store and Play Store in India. After almost 200 millions downloads, India recently decided to ban PUBG Mobile alongside 117 other Chinese apps....
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds fans excitedly logged in just over a week ago to try out the new Sanhok map in the popular Battle Royale game. Unfortunately, despite being out for such a short amount of time, a major exploit has already been discovered. The exploit in question can be found just outside of the village Na Kham, and it enables players to completely hide under the ground, appearing invisible to other players....

Upcoming open-world RPG Rage 2 was present at The Game Awards this week, offering up a new trailer and a release date. However, this isn’t the only new information about the game that has just been confirmed. Bethesda has also shared details about its launch plans for the title but not all fans are happy about it. On the Rage 2 pre-order page, Bethesda allows fans to click and buy the game digitally on Xbox One, PS4, or on PC via the Bethesda Launcher....
Super Mario. He’s Italian, he wears overalls, he’s got an M on his hat, and he’s got one stylish mustache. Everyone knows him, from the most hardcore gamers to the casual fans who barely even play. He’s just as much an icon as he is a character and odds are he’ll remain that way. It’s not hard to see why, as Nintendo has had a fantastic track record with the red plumber....
One of the most exciting PlayStation 5 games that Sony announced at its showcase in June was Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. The impressive trailer gave Ratchet & Clank fans an idea of what to expect from the story and gameplay, while also introducing a brand new female Lombax character that has been confirmed to be playable. Since Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart isn’t expected to be a PS5 launch title, fans weren’t sure exactly when they would get to see more of it....
