Virtual pimping

     Wow.  I must have been tired because I slept for most of the day.  About the only thing I got done was breed a Pokemon for certain moves in Pokemon Y.  With the help of my good friend, Andy, I was able to breed a Tyrunt (a rock-dragon with high attack) with an attack boosting nature and the moves Fire Fang, Ice Fang, and Thunder Fang.  This is awesome because these moves are already powerful, but Tyrunt has a special ability that makes all 'bite' attacks 50% MORE powerful.  This monster should be strong enough to sweep anything I come up against, and it took me several hours to finally breed the right one.

     Yes.  I spent a good portion of my day getting virtual dinosaurs to have sex off screen so I could hatch the resulting eggs in order to pick and choose among the litter for the best possible virtual dinosaur.  Taking into account stat boosting natures, Individual Stat Values, Innate Abilities, Attacks only learnable through breeding, special breeding items, pokemon gender ratios, and secondary Pokemon abilities that speed up the process.

     Remember when Pokemon was a kids game?

     Anyway, big thanks and shutout to my good buddy Andy, without whom I couldn't have accomplished my goal today.  When I see you at next years escapist expo, I'm buying you (and your lovely wife) a steak dinner.

     Welp, that's enough chitchat about children's video games for one day.  I have one last announcement:

     I finally secured some decent audio equipment for my computer, and with school starting back up I will finally have some free time to record some videos.  So look for some let's plays or other interesting videos that I may update with in the near future.  Also, you can check out my infrequent live streams over on www.twitch.tv/magicpokey.  I may stream some Magic Online, or maybe some Red Alert 2, who knows I may even stream some of my old Sega Master System games, whatever I do, it'll be fun!
