Alolan Pokedex: Complete


As I have done with every single generation, I am once again Pokédex Master. Though, with only 300 native Pokémon, the Aloladex was never going to be difficult.
Anywho, here is my Alola Pokédex Completion Stamp! I have also stored 1 of every new Pokémon, ready to add to my Bank Living Pokédex, making my current Livingdex a total of 800/802, albeit split between Bank and Moon until Bank updates. I am only missing Magearna (waiting on that QR code!) and the mysterious Marshadow!
But wait, there's more! I have also gathered all new forms, but there's one more I desire... I must have a shiny Minior to add to my Rainbow! I did encounter one already, but...well...it exploded. Yeah... Next time I will be ready for it!

This isn't the end though. Oh no. This is just the beginning of Generation 7!

________
UPDATE!

I've now finished the grind for Poké Finder Pro... It was quite dull to be honest. Unless you really want all of the stamps, I wouldn't bother.
It's a shame, I'd love to have seen this feature be something with a bit more oomph. Oh well, here's my stamp!

I'm not quite sure what I'll do next. Possibly start my breeding grind for for some 5 IV, optimal nature shiny Pokémon. I have my eye on a good few this gen.

Pokemon and Me

Pokémon. It’s become big news lately with the release of Pokémon GO and there have been a lot of interesting stories popping up. I decided I’d chime in with some of my thoughts on Pokémon, as it is something that has been very important to me for a long time. So here’s my story, and how Pokémon is improving my life even today.

We really have to start from the beginning, some 18 years ago or so, when Pokémon really kicked off here. I’ve always been a bit different to most other people (I recently discovered that I'm on the autistic spectrum) and I’ve never really been interested in, nor felt the need to do things that other people my age were doing. I didn’t really have friends or go out as a child. When Pokémon came around, it was an instant hit for me. I loved it. I was obsessed with it.
This was a pretty big thing since very little really kept me interested. My entire world became Pokémon - I watched the show, collected the cards, played the games, wanted merchandise...everything! So that’s how it all started.

ZBOX The Force

First of all, I should note that we didn't even order this. Emi had previously ordered a one off zbox but, unbeknownst to us, Zavvi had automatically turned this into a rolling monthly subscription. Now Emi is having to contact customer service as she is unable to stop the subscription on the site. Not cool. We should have expected as such, but oh well. Now we've got a box of tat and oh boy is it that. Let's take a look.

R2D2 Desktop Vacuum
Yep, it's a USB powered, R2D2 desktop vacuum. It's pretty cute, but it really is a pile of crap. Not only does it feel like it'll break in a few uses, it also does not suck up a damn thing. That's right; a hoover that can't suck. What is your purpose, robot?
It's a nice novelty and all but completely useless. I'm really not impressed, which is a shame as I was actually in need of a little keyboard hoover.

NERF Rebelle 4-Victory Custom

Oof. One moment, let me get those cobwebs for you... Yeah, so it's been a while, but I decided to document my latest project.

It's quite clear to most people that I'm a just big kid at heart, and as such I do own several Nerf products. Yeah, I'm 25 and I like Nerf, get over it. It's harmless fun for everyone, no mess, no fuss!

Anyway, as much as Nerf is fun, the blasters can be a bit samey, so many people take to customising them, either to stand out in Nerf play, for use with cosplays, game/movie/television replicas or even as props for filming!

I decided it would be fun to make something of my own so I went out and bought myself the Rebelle Victory 4 blaster. Just the right kind of shape and size for what I want; which is a small, vibrant space themed blaster for potential cosplay.
Maybe even Destiny themed? I'm going for a deep, slightly metallic purple, so perhaps a Queen's Wrath style? Swag.     (I forgot to take a pic before I got to work, so here's a stock image of the blaster)
Victory 4 in it's supplied cyan holster.

Nanami Chiaki 1/8 Scale by Phat Company

As you may or may not know, I love Danganronpa. I love it a lot, in fact, my purse/wallet/money holder has pixel Monokuma's all over it!
So, today's arrival shouldn't surprise anyone all too much - a fantastic figure of Chiaki Namani from Danganronpa 2 who is also known as the Ultimate Gamer, a title many of us Trophy Hunters aspire to!

"Gaming is my life or maybe life is just a game?"

Indigo & Silver League Badges


So you've set out on a new journey, in a different region and left all your badges behind...but what happens to them? Are they lost to the infinite void? Well, no more! We've framed our Kanto and Johto league badges, and they hang proudly on our wall. More coming soon!

Drakengard 3 CE


After much waiting, it's finally that time of the month! No, not that...It's Drakengard 3! I'm not even going to discuss how much nonsense has surrounded this release and our lack of physical disc, so let's just move on to the contents...and oh boy, what an expensive package of crap this is. There's one thing inside which I found to be really nice but everything else? Not worth the price. We kinda knew that already though, right?
Just so you know, I'm not bothering to include a pic of the poster because it's creased to buggery and it's just your run of the mill poster, worth about £2. Yaaawwn.

Fire Emblem Tharja

Tharja (JP: Sallya) 1/7 Scale, GSC/Max Factory

Waifu Emblem: Awakening's creepy, but sexy stalker has found her way to us. Admittedly, I'm not Tharja's biggest fan but this figure is an absolute stunner, so when Emi said she wanted this figure, I couldn't really say no. Just look at her! She's not exactly on my Fire Emblem Waifu List, but I think I will have to change that. 
I have a few things to say about this figure though... I don't like the material on her base; it's some sort of velveteen and it's a dust magnet! I'm also not too fond of how she has no pegs to fix her to the base, however she can stand just fine with the cloak and books. Overall a very sexy, stunning addition to our collection.

Junko Enoshima FuRyu Prize Figure


Junko is here! I have to say, for a prize figure she is brilliant. There are some very minor paint flecks, but overall this prize figure is great. Way beyond what you would normally get with a prize figure! It also has Monokuma and a nicely detailed base. Emi has pics of these on twitter.
