My Starter Pokemon of Choice For Each Generation
Dear Vocal Readers, Oh, Pokemon starters, what a crucial choice we have to make so early on in our adventures. With 8 generations in total and 3 starter Pokemon for each generation, we must choose between 24 possible companions. I mean look at all those Pokemon up above, wouldn't you want to have all of them?! This choice we make can determine how we play the rest of our game and dictate how we set up the rest of our team. For this article I am going to share my starter of choice for each generation. A quick disclaimer: yes, I love grass-types. Don't judge me for this they are just so cute and it isn't like they can't do any damage I mean they are effective against water and ground types! If you are one of the many grass-type haters then perhaps this isn't the article for you, but if you have an open mind then you should hear me out (and also just look at their pictures because of how cute they are). Also, I do have some of the other two types on this list so no matter if you are a water-typer, fire-typer or grass-typer, everyone is represented here. So, without further ado let us begin this list of cuties!

Even on Switch, the Outer Worlds captivates.
When the Outer Worlds was announced, I was instantly intrigued by the sweet temptations of the gameplay loop of role playing rigamorale. While not the greatest RPG fanatic of all time (I still struggle in Skyrim & still die A LOT in Fallout 1), I still love the genre and its beginning to suck away all my free time like a fresh newborn. Even then, I had just been gifted a glorious Nintendo Switch for my birthday, and was eager to play more games on the go like those glorious gamers in the commercials. Buying every story or RPG based game on the Switch store I could, after beating Breath of the Wild & Skyrim my spirit longed for rich role playing realism in a sea of games that seemed eager to be abandoned by fearful developer pirates who just wanted a quick hand of loot. Quickly after this I picked up the Witcher 3, a game I previous bought on PS4 but almost instantaneously disliked at the time due to my immature immediate indecisiveness to keep playing, grinding, etc. The game sat on my shelf for about a year, but after buying it on the switch, it instantly became one of my instant favorites & I was packing my bags for the RPG bandwagon.

My Favourite Kanto Pokemon
I discovered the Favourite Pokemon from each type generator on an LGBTQ+ server on discord. After I made one which covered all eight generations, I decided I should do one from each region. The Kanto pokemon, also known as the original 151, had some legendary pokemon that have remained firm favourites for years. Despite the multiple flaws, limits and glitches in the Gameboy games, it didn't stop the games from being as well-loved as they are now.

More to come: Animal Crossing New Horizons
This is going to be a long one. Am I beating a dead horse of a topic? There is much to say because the game itself isn't exactly complete and for this article to stand the test of time, I had to go in deep. The game is now at version 1.4 and we have had some tweaks and additions to satisfy the people. As mentioned in my previous articles, this is strictly my own opinion and it's your game (you do you).

Nintendo Switch Pro
Nintendo Switch Pro & Why Nintendo needs a powerful console. Nintendo Switch Pro Circulating since 2018, rumors suggest Nintendo is working on a new more powerful Switch. No official confirmation from the gaming company of the existence of such of a console, however Nintendo was quite secretive about the existence of the Nintendo Switch Lite and updated regular Switch. Although Nintendo stated there is no plan to launch a new Nintendo Switch in 2020. However, there’s plenty of rumors out there to make me think it will be coming, eventually.

The 10 Most Fun Shrine Quests in Breath of the Wild
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a game I just can't get enough of. I love exploring the open world with its different locations and climates, the wide variety of enemies to fight and the long list of quests. Today I'll specifically talk about shrine quests. Most of these are technically optional, but if you want to do all 120 shrines you're gonna have to delve into them. It's hard for me to even fit ten of them into one category, as they involve different kinds of challenges and lengths. These are ten of the most fun, interesting or entertaining (or all of the above) shrine quests from Breath of the Wild (spoiler alert!).

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is Going to Release the Final Character Additions!
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s fighting roster is one of the most legendary rosters in the whole gaming community. The game was the fifth title of the crossover fighting game series and first released in 2018, published by Nintendo for Switch. It was the sequel to Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, both top-rated games of their time. And thus, living up to the name of such excellent games is no easy task to complete, neither are the competitors for the spot any less scary. But over the years, Ultimate developers, Bandai Namco Studios, and Sora Ltd. have added some of the most coveted fighters from all over the world. But as Min Min joins the team, the start of Wave 2 of The Ultimate Fighter Pass looks like the beginning of the end.

New Horizons Indeed
The Animal Crossing Franchise has been around for years since the N64 in Japan and GameCube internationally. Each new game seems to be more popular than the last. I got into the game with New Leaf and now New Horizons, it’s follow up. To sum this game in a simple sentence it’s creating your own island for you and 10 animal villagers to live in peace and harmony. The player has great power and with great power comes great responsibility. That great power also corrupts which can turn this innocent looking game into an unexpected horror game. The mind is a powerful thing, you can create a heaven out of hell and a hell out of a heaven. This all really relates to Animal Crossing.

Ninjala: First Impressions
My hype for this game began when it appeared during Nintendo's Mini-Direct back in March; it seemed like a cute new IP, revolving around Ninja-powered bubble gum and taking place in an appealing world that blends two of my favorite aesthetics together, Japanese culture and architecture with modern-day Western society. The free-to-play battle royale-style gameplay only strengthened my resolve to try it out once it dropped later in the summer, since I haven't had much experience with the genre before, and with the state of the pandemic right now, I felt like I needed something new to keep my spirits up while in quarantine.
