Read Day 4 here. Day 4 wasn't the most productive day I had on the game, but Day 5 I promise you will have more to talk about. So let's get into it! (Finally) Continuing the Story So after the massive detour I took yesterday, I went back to Hotel Z and re-joined my friends to have a team meeting. During this meeting, we find out about three potential Rogue Mega Evolution sightings and we have to knuckle down to them before chaos ensues. While Urbain and Lida are taking the si

Read Day 3 here. Going Online To Grab A Greninjite I took a quick break from the main game at first so I could do the online ranked battles and get a Greninjite. At the time I'm writing this post, it's a reward you can claim if you reach Rank K in the online ranked battles and the event runs until November the 5th. After that, there'll be another season and then we'll have to compete for a Delphoxite and then a third time for a Chesnaughtite. Why the Kalos starters were final

Read Day 2 here. Hi guys! We're back for another day of Legends ZA fun, so let's get to it! Slow Start Before Ranking Up To Rank V This day started out pretty slow, but still productive for me. What do I mean? I was spending a good chunk of the morning just exploring the city and catching Pokemon. Some handy YouTube videos even helped me find some rare spawns such as Riolu, Larvitar, Hawlucha and Dratini. The latter two were significant to me as I actually want to use them du

Read Day 1 here. Welcome back readers! Here's Day 2 of my Pokémon Legends ZA playthrough. Let's see what adventures await us today... Emma's Side Missions Emma gives me three side missions to complete. One involves defeating an Alpha Bunnelby, the second involves getting a Pikachu to trade with an NPC for a Heracross (awesome!) and the third involves getting a ring back for a woman who lost it to a Sableye. They're all pretty easy missions to do, even the Alpha Bunnelby miss

Hello readers, and welcome to a brand new segment of themediamanblog that I call "The Media Man Plays"! If you're curious what this is all about, The Media Man Plays will be a serious of blog posts in where I pick a game, play it and write all about it until I complete the game. And I have the perfect subject for my first Media Man Plays series. That subject is the newest instalment in the Pokémon franchise, Pokémon: Legends ZA . So for the next few days, I'll be playing this

You really can tell how easy it is to kick this thing in the groin over and over, eh? I've already made a post talking about how much this show sucked , then did a three-part essay where I re-wrote the whole series to make it better and now I'm here with yet ANOTHER post about Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V ! I know, talk about beating a dead horse here and I acknowledge that it is kinda unnecessary to do yet another post about the series when I've talked about it so extensively already

The 2020's really has been Sonic the Hedgehog 's big comeback, hasn't it? After being reduced to a joke during the late 2000's and throughout all of the 2010's, the 2020's feel like they've been taking pity on Sonic and have given him the big break he was looking for. No joke, it's amazing how much things have taken a leap in quality or how Sonic's become so much more popular and beloved since this decade began. He has three critically beloved and successful movies, he got a

October is here again, and we all know what that means. That's right, Halloween is on the rise, and here on themediamanblog, that means at least one post related to villains in some way. And I have the perfect subject for this week's post! When it comes to Halloween, the spooky season is all about things that are considered scary. These can include animals that frighten us, horror movies, ghost stories, things that go bump in the night or whatever insane ramblings you'll hea

I don't like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Just throwing that out there so you know my stance on this stale, mouldy bread loaf, rotting carcass of a franchise. When it comes to my experiences with the MCU, my older brother really got into the series and brought me and my younger brother into it with him. At first, I found the whole thing kind of cool and got interested in seeing these big superhero movies that are all connected together in one big universe. But then at aroun
