Update: thankfully, the worst didn’t happen and Ash’s Pikachu did not evolve into Raichu, despite misleading previews and leaks. The end of an era could be upon us, if fandom Twitter is to be believed, Pokémon fans could be saying goodbye to Pikachu as it has been for nearly a quarter of a century. For 23 season Pikachu has been the steadfast and stubborn partner to the grandiosely ambitious Ash Ketchum on his quest to become a Pokémon master and catch ‘em all....

(This article contains minor spoilers for Pokémon Sword & Shield’s Crown Tundra expansion) Shortly before the Isle of Armor expansion released for Pokémon Sword & Shield, Nintendo teased the Crown Tundra expansion, giving players a taste of what’s to come by letting them know that they will be able to encounter new and returning Legendary Pokémon. However, if recent datamining efforts are accurate, then players won’t have to wait long before finding things out for themselves....

Ah, the Pokémon Trading Card Game. For me, this is like tiny cardboard slices of nostalgia. If you’re a 90s child, I’m sure it’s probably just the same for you. I was in my early years of high school when Pokémania first hit the world, and man was I instantly captivated. I was introduced to Pokémon at the same time I was introduced to Pythagoras’s theorem in math class, and needless to say, I made my darn choice and I stuck with it....

Though the first generation of games taking place in the Kanto region are the most beloved, people often overlook that Pokemon Gold & Silver were arguably much better games that provided a much more fulfilling and engaging experience. The Johto region introduced fans to new Pokemon as well as new evolutions to creatures people already loved. Among them were Eevee evolutions Espeon and Umbreon, as well as the metal-coated evolution of Onix named Steelix....

Pokémon Go has brought a lot of happiness, joy, and sense of competition to many players globally since the AR game’s 2016 release. However, while developer Niantic and Nintendo have seen a lot of success, Pokémon Go has been costly to one town south of Washington, D.C. According to Destructoid, a town called Occoquan has experienced a lot less prosperity than players and companies associated with the game over the years....

Earlier this year, Pokemon surprised the community with the announcement of a few new Pokemon games for the Nintendo Switch. One of the new games, Pokemon Quest, was announced and released for Nintendo Switch in May, and has also been released on mobile devices a month later. The game, which gives the world of Pokemon an 8-bit makeover, offers a pared down Pokemon battling and collecting experience. Last month, it was revealed that Pokemon Quest surpassed 7 million downloads, despite the game’s simplicity and unexpected release, and now it was further discovered that the game has brought in over $8 million in revenue on mobile....

Pokemon GO developer Niantic gives a detailed explanation about why it closed down popular Pokemon tracking sites like Pokevision, citing server issues for the action. Despite being a resounding success for developer Niantic, Pokemon GO has received a fair amount of criticism from players. From the server issues that plagued the game’s first few days, to the problems with the in-game tracker, players haven’t been afraid to let their feelings be known....

It may not be as glamorous as the Spike VGAs or AIAS awards, but the PSN Gamers’ Choice Awards offers one thing no other awards program does: the chance to score great games for half off! Sony has just released the list of this year’s nominees, and there are some great titles to vote for. Starting tomorrow, PlayStation 3 owners will be able to cast votes for their favorite PlayStation Network title....

The developers of Rainbow Six: Siege have had an interesting tactic when it comes to their seasons of content. Each season has introduced new operators to the roster, fixed any problems with the game, and some even introduced a temporary game mode that would never be seen again. Sometimes this results in a fun experience players talk about years later, and other times players are more than happy to see the next update undo the damage a particular season did....

Rainbow Six Siege will soon see a brand new operator. After teasing operation Neon Dawn yesterday, Ubisoft has teased Aruni with a short video on Twitter, the newest operator to the tactical team-oriented shooter. The operators are one of the things that make Rainbow Six Siege, which recently came to Xbox Game Pass, truly special. The playable characters in the game all have their own unique set of abilities and characteristics that teams can use to fight towards victory....

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart comes out in two days, and Insomniac has made the game’s soundtrack readily available for fans to listen to across all music streaming platforms, including Spotify and Apple Music. Insomniac creative director Marcus Smith wrote in the PlayStation Blog that the Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart soundtrack wouldn’t have come out as great as it has were it not for the genius minds of composer Mark Mothersbaugh and Sony Interactive Entertainment’s music producer Scott Hanau....

Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart splits most of the gameplay between two playable characters; Ratchet and Rivet. While fans are familiar with the former, Rivet is brand new. The two play identically, which is logical considering they are alternate dimension counterparts. Subtle differences help the two stand out, in addition to the obvious aesthetic and personality changes. If you did not pay close attention to the game or engage with the side quests, then you might have missed some of these....

As many fans may have noticed by now, Rockstar’s latest open world epic, Red Dead Redemption 2, is filled with various secrets and references to other games. Perhaps one of the spookiest easter eggs in the game is the Ghost Train in Lemoyne that is a direct reference to the Phantom Train boss battle in the all-time classic Final Fantasy 6 for the SNES released in 1994. For players looking to find the Ghost Train, they need to go to the North-West part of Lemoyne, right next to the Lemoyne sign....

Sometimes it doesn’t matter how good a player’s timing, skill, and experience with a game is. especially when random in-game factors come out of nowhere to mess up a task. One Red Dead Redemption 2 player learned the hard way that rescuing a hostage in Rockstar’s Wild West-themed game can go very wrong. Red Dead Redemption 2 players and their horses often have a special relationship, similar to the friendship real-life cowboys shared with their mounts and how far they’d go to rely on these intelligent animals....

Although little is confirmed about Rockstar Games’ upcoming open-world western, keen-eyed fans seem to have spotted what they believe to be the game’s protagonist in several Red Dead Redemption 2 screenshots. Since the same person seems to be recurring in all of the game’s art, it seems to hint that the figure will be the sole playable character, though this is only speculation at this point. In all the trailers and artwork so far, we’ve been unable to get a good look at any of the main cast of Red Dead Redemption 2, though there’s one character that keeps appearing....

The unyielding politician Toranosuke Yoshida spends his days giving soapbox speeches at the Shibuya Station Square. Though he’s unafraid to challenge the problems found in Japan’s political structure, his scandal-filled past has made it difficult for him to gain followers. Joker happens upon him giving a speech and later strikes a deal to become better at negotiation and persuasion. Here is a spoiler-free guide on how to max out his confidant in Persona 5 Royal....

Guns in the original Persona 5 were a little lackluster. While they offered some burst damage and gave every party member coverage against Shadows weak to gun skills, they also suffered from a lot of shortcomings: their attack power generally fell short of the best melee weapons, ammo was severely limited, and there aren’t a lot of enemies weak to gunfire to begin with. Players with a passion for firearms could theoretically make the Reserve Ammo infiltration tool, but considering the item was locked behind Morgana’s story-based confidant rank-ups, single-use and extremely expensive to craft, it’s no wonder most people decided guns weren’t worth the effort....

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers has been available in Japan for months now, and nearly a year after its release, a Western version of the game is finally set to be announced. While Atlus has yet to post the trailer for the game, it has leaked, showing fans that Persona 5 Scramble will boast the same hack-and-slash gameplay in the United States, albeit with a new title. In the West, Persona 5 Scramble will be going by the name Persona 5 Strikers, dropping the “Scramble” subtitle in favor of something more fitting of the gameplay....

The spread of the novel coronavirus worldwide has led many a self-isolated or quarantined. Luckily, video games are there to comfort people in this time of stress and boredom.
