Good afternoon everyone,
Well last night's stream of Pokemon Shining Pearl was filled with all sorts of emotions, as it's not often you get to see me voice some rage in regards to something that happens in a game. There was level grinding for well over an hour before I made my way back to dealing with the Elite Four to use them level boost, as the wild Pokemon in the Underground were not exactly giving me the gains needed. Now the first run of the Elite Four and the Champion Cynthia went surprisingly well... right up until the champ pulled out a full restore out of nowhere right when I had them ready to be beaten... then the spamming of Earthquake meant I was dead in the water.
Needless to the the bullshit that is the Elite Four and Champion having multiple Pokemon that can use Earthquake is just idiotic, not to mention the amount of full restores they can utilize Thankfully I had a guide up to help me remember match ups for the most part, so on the next attempt, success was ours... with Roserade being the MVP. Since it can learn Dazzling Gleam, it basically was able to take down Garchomp, which has a vulnerability to a Fairy-type moves.
Now following that I actually went about completing the Sinnoh Pokedex... and accidentally killing two of the three legendary Pokemon of the lakes. Still this makes the first Pokemon game I've played since Crystal where I was able to complete an entire Pokedex. Woo-Hoo!
Will I deal with the post-game stuff of Shining Pearl? Maybe, it does give an excuse to go back to it at some point. Will I be looking to get Pokémon Legends: Arceus the day it comes out? Probably not, keep in mind in the past 12 months I've played three Pokemon games, so I'm going to hold off on the next entry until probably the Fall / Winter
Now what will replace Pokemon Shining Pearl in the lineup? Well Kingdom Hearts III, as that is something some of my viewers have been hoping to see at some point, so we'll get that started on tomorrow's stream after installing it. We'll use the X-Box One for it, since the Series S is being used for Gears 5.
Now who did we raid last night? Why it was Hawleight who was playing Life is Strange: True Colors! You can check out their streams over at twitch.tv/hawleigh!

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 Daily Workout featured Weaving COmbo #2, Straight Combo #1 and Beginner Combo #2 for 31 minutes and a calorie burn of 467 kcal. Here are the stats for this week, aand if these totals don't add up with the screenshots it's because I do a little extra following the main session.
- Punches Thrown: 8,943
- Estimated Calorie Burn: 3769.34 kcal
Finished off another commissioned fan fic based around a WWE Alumni entering another line of work, was nice to get the compensation for it rather quickly!
Speaking of WWE, amazing how after Mickie James rightfully puts the company on blast for how they released her and sent her stuff in a garbage bag that she's going to be in the 2022 Royal Rumble. The push back I've seen on that has been rather hilarious as its clearly the WWE trying to make it up to her..
Didn't mess around with Final Fantasy XIV last night, but did mess around with Mass Effect for the X-Box 360, as there are achievements with that I can work towards. Way I figure I need to do a full engineer run paired mostly with Ashley and Kaiden to knock off several things in one play through, then another run as a full biotic with Liara and Garrus... then finally a run with my original character to to get the last few I'm willing to try to get. So don't be surprise if there are are random Mass Effect Classic streams here and there.
Of course that meant I didn't get any achievements as what I currently have installed on my two X-Box console and PC didn't have anything I could easily complete.
So that leads us to announcing what is on deck for tonight's stream we will be starting up Kingdom Hearts III since we already featured Final Fantasy XIV on stream on Thursday. As I mentioned we'll use the X-Box One for this which means my streak will continue past today!
Anyway on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
