LEGO and Animal Crossing is a match made in heaven, but there was one curious omission from the line when it launched earlier this year: K.K. Slider. How could one of the most iconic characters of modern gaming not be included alongside villagers like Julian and Bunnie? Who even are…
Pokémon GO’s quarterly Hatch Day event is back and this time Cleffa is being featured. Before the event kicks off, there will be some extra bonuses available during the aptly named Cleffa Hatch Day Extended Bonuses “event”. So with your Egg inventory cleared out, you’ll be ready to collect (and…
To take a franchise like Pokémon and make it feel new again likely felt impossible. Efforts like Colosseum gave it a try before having those concepts drop away, and while GO redefined what Pokémon is to many, it really hasn’t changed much for fans of the console games beyond the…
Today is Pokémon Day, which means just about everything Pokémon is getting some kind of news or update (assuming it’s current). And there’s little more current than Pokémon Legends: Arceus, only a month old and receiving its first major update, titled Daybreak. Daybreak offers new post-credits story content, as Mass…
It’s been almost a full month since Pokémon Legends: Arceus launched, and its bold retelling of the traditional Pokémon formula has made a profound impact among fans and series newcomers alike.

It’s Valentine’s Day, and not content to merely spoof Antiques Roadshow, the slate of commercials for Pokémon Legends: Arceus tackles another perennial genre of television, this time romantic reality shows like The Bachelor. With some truly inspired dialogue (“It’s just the sales — somebody’s gotta manage them!”) and…
Shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus are a little easier to stumble across than in previous Pokémon games, largely due to a number of factors like spawn rate and encounter rate of Pokémon in general. But maybe you come across a Shiny that you don’t care for, or would prefer…
The Chansey line of Pokémon has long been associated with healing, being a fixture at Pokémon Centers in the anime and possessing rare health-recovery moves like the trademark Soft-Boiled in the game. And Game Freak has carried that legacy into Pokémon Legends: Arceus with an absolutely fantastic easter egg. …
People by and large have taken well to Pokémon Legends: Arceus’ expansive world and new take on the series — but if there’s one thing people are still harping on (and will likely never stop harping on as long as we live), it’s the graphics. Accusations of the game looking…
Sometimes to get the hot news you have to hit the streets, and the word on the streets (or rather, in GameStop windows) is that Pokémon Legends: Arceus is getting its first distribution event later this month, where players can get a Hisuian Growlithe and 20 Feather Balls from February…
By shaking up the series formula to a drastic degree, Pokémon Legends: Arceus was a big risk on the part of Game Freak and The Pokémon Company, with many wondering if audiences would be receptive to the changes. Thankfully it seems like that worry was unwarranted, as the game has…
Pokémon Legends: Arceus is a fresh new take on the franchise, but aesthetically it takes place in the past — an older, dustier time. And what by nature are older and dustier than antiques? What would we think of an old-timey Poké Ball today? These are the questions at the…
