Pokemon X

I know it's a bit dated as this game came out last October but I just got a 2DS last December so it took me some time to finish. That being said I had a lot more fun with the game than I have had with Pokémon in a long time. It's not my favorite by a long shot but it was wonderful to finally see a graphic update which I've been waiting to see since I was eight. This is going to be a short blog so let me break it down into how I felt.

PROS:

Graphics update- where have you been all these years?

Finally a new plot- you're still trying to become the champ but it feels like more of a side effect, like why not, I'm here anyway.

Mewtwo - always a pro in my book

Getting to change my clothes, contacts, shopping, haircuts. It was a nice change of pace to see that I was forever trapped in clothes that were mediocre.

A new type. Oh hai there fairy. We've been waiting on you.

They changed the way that caves and flash work. <3

You can Ride Pokémon.



CON:
The game was too easy. With getting xp share so early and changing the way it worked I got a team of six that was always 10-15 levels above the enemies. It was a bit of a bummer to never be challenged.

The Pokémon Safari. I was thrilled when I heard it was back. However you need a friend code to ender and each friend code gets you three Pokémon of a type. So example. I added my hubby and got access to wander a small patch of grass that was hiding three fighting Pokémon.

I have always hating Roaming Pokémon. Enough Said.

I count it as a con that I got to the elite four and every Pokémon, except my legendary, was a classic Pokémon. It was part nostalgia. However I also found that out of the Pokémon I caught they were just better. I ended up abandoning my fire starter in favor of a Charizard.

Maybe age is catching up to me but I only clocked 45 hours with this Pokémon game. It took 15 years but I might be outgrowing Pokémon?

Gotta Catch Them All

Pokemon applied to Husbands. 

Oh how much simpler the world would be if when you saw a man you wanted you just nailed him with a metal ball and got to keep him and they would automatically do what you said because you caught them. Hmmm.  Corset personally got her man the old fashion way.

Pokemon For Adults

Ok. Being the type of girl that I am I'll admit that I bought Pokemon Black and White when they came out and I played them both all the way through. However like many of the older Pokemon fans, it didn't hold the attraction that Silver and Gold had. Now I'm not picking today to start my Pokemon rant. Today I am actually talking about The Drunken Moogle. It was a blog I ran across that made me start thanking deities as I came across a loooong list of game themed shots and alcoholic beverages.


I enjoy a night out as much as the next person and I would just love to go to the bar and ask for a Charizard.


Charizard-
2 oz Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey
2 splashes of grenadine
2 splash of scotch
1.5 ounces Bacardi 151
Fill with ginger ale 
(All rights go to Drunken Moogle) 


Or Even to ask for a Tweedle Rum and Tweedle Tea (Alice: Madness Returns Cocktail)
It made my inner little girl giggle like mad while the adult in me was ready to whip open the cabinets and see what I could make. It was a nice change of pace and I like the trend. It gets old quickly to have to say some of the odd names associated with cocktails. I know I blushed the first time I asked someone to make me a "Rocky Mountain Muther F*cker" and you have to be careful how you ask for an "Orgasm".  


 They have brought some long awaited class to the drinking world and I hope that many of these will catch on. I look forward to trying the Bioshock Adam and Eve while I wait for the next installment of Bioshock to hit stores. 


It's drinks like these that give me hope I can go to a bar one day and not have to listen to cheesy country music or bad metal wanabee. It will be a place I can go with my friends and we can dress as we want and talk about games with out people harassing us or acting like we have the plague. I would love to see a club or a bar that played off this theme of gamers. To encourage the socially awkward that there is a place for us out there too and it doesn't involve fighting our way through whatever happens to be hip at the moment to have a drink with friends. Or even worse, some dive because it's the only place they don't judge us. A see a vision in the future of a type of bar where you can order these drinks and go play Fall Out in the corner or run a Table top in a back room. I may be a bit delusional about all this but you know what, I hate the bar scene as it is now. So even if this way is doomed to fail, it would be a fun ride.

I would even greatly enjoy a compilation bar tenders guide. 




I guess what I am trying to say is my top hat goes off to you Drunken Moogle.
