@SheldonRandoms Riolu is absurdly rare in Go. You're better off just trying to find someone else with a crappy one and trading them for the IV re-roll. Or if you can, go for a lucky trade.

On the same note, here in Japan PoGo events have been cancelled. No community days or anything.

@NintendoByNature I agree. Of course, bacon and eggs pretty much always sound good. Or waffles. I like to put shredded cheese in my scrambled eggs. mmm.

@Anti-Matter Time for a little English lesson: it is FROM two weeks ago, not by two weeks ago. By is a word that points to a person or a thing, so if you say by two weeks ago, then that would mean that the video is made BY a person called "two weeks ago". If the video was made two weeks ago, then it is FROM two weeks ago.

You're welcome.

@NEStalgia Really though, I hate lawns. My dad loved them and would spend hours and hours each week taking care of it. And sometimes I ran the lawn mower for him too - but he was so picky about it, wanting it cut in a very certain way so the pattern from the wheels was consistent, that he usually just did it himself. Then there were the shrubs, which looked nice, but were a massive pain to maintain. Trimming them was usually an all day event.

But I always thought that if I ever buy a home, rather than an apartment, I would want either a very very small lawn or none at all and absolutely no shrubs.

Oh my God.

Pokemon Go literally has a special pack with 30 incenses (a special item that spawns Pokemon around you), to let people play at home. It only costs one coin to buy, so it's pretty much free.

They apparently also doubled the time these incenses last from half and hour to a full hour, and eggs will take less time to hatch.

That's so... Nice of them. Like, really, no sarcasm.

@Anti-Matter It's not terrible. It's well above average, considering your country of origins, but improving upon it is always nice. And a way to keep the brain busy.

I’m a big biscuits and gravy guy when I’m out for breakfast. I just load them up with black pepper and Franks. Good stuff.

Took my kids on a long nature walk today. It felt good to get out and briefly forget about all the weirdness. We found some cool rocks in the root system of a tipped over tree. I think one is jasper.

@ThanosReXXX - I was just being extra clear that I was joking with that emoji to ensure you didn’t take me serious and launch your hacker counter measures.

@HobbitGamer - That stinks dude, take care of yourself. There’s lots of stuff going around right now.

@Heavyarms55 - Ooh, I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a no syrup person. That’s a bold way to go about your waffles. I could probably do it with a nice, malty waffle at a restaurant, but I’m drowning my Eggos in it. I’m not a huge sweet breakfast person unless it’s something absurd like a slice of pie, or the ice cream and waffle sandwich.

limby-bee was a jerk.

@Heavyarms55 Maybe I can get my sister to trade me her shiny Riolu, but that'll only happen if I can bribe her with a rare shiny that she doesn't own but I just so happen to catch, but the outcome of that becoming a reality is any letter of the alphabet getting divided by zero

Also, she has a 100% Jigglypuff, and, well, let's just say, I have a Jigglypuff plush next to me while i'm typing this.

GAME. WHY. DO. YOU. KEEP. DOING. THIS. TO. ME!

I made Sheldon & Mr. Randoms back on Flipnote Hatena, now i'm a kangaroo mod that has a funko pop collection!

I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!

@bimmy-lee I don't always do it that way, it's pretty much only frozen waffles that I like that way. When I actually take the time to make them myself with a waffle maker - which is honestly a giant pain the butt to clean afterword - I use syrup.

I just happen to really like toasted eggos.

@NintendoByNature DO IT!

@Eel thanks for mentioning that! I'm gonna grab that now!

@SheldonRandoms If I were your sister there's no way I'd trade away a shiny riolu. XD

@Heavyarms55 I feel like the spawn rate was increased too, before I would get like one Pokémon every five minutes, but with the one I used just now it’s been a constant barrage of Pokémon one after the other

@bimmy-lee Me, a hacker? Part of me wishes that I actually had those kinds of skills. Oh, boy... the havoc I'd wreak. Like a regular real-world Thanos, so it's probably better that I don't have that particular skill set...

@Eel I'll probably try one out this evening. They don't seem to mind if I hop on my phone some right now - since there are no classes to teach or students in the building - but they might be annoyed if I'm on my phone for long periods.

I get away with wasting time on NL because I'm just on the PC and they'd have to try and read the English on the screen. XD

@Link-Hero That plan seems to work rather well if you do it quickly enough. Here in Japan they did it nationwide and the numbers of new cases have been steady but low. Though that could be coincidental.

Boeing is a major weapons manufacturer. I wouldn't shed a tear for them. Though I feel bad for the workers whose livelihoods are at risk.

Honestly no, not at all. having played games since the NES days, and owned or at least played every major game console over that time span - I consider the Switch to easily be my all time favorite gaming platform. The hybrid nature of the device is as simple as it is perfect fulfilling a gaming dream I never actually expected to happen. Allowing me to play current games both portable and and on TV. And it takes it a step further in that the transition between the two is seamless. We can literally be mid level, walk up and pick the Switch up and keep playing. No cords, no messing with settings, we don't even have to pause the game - though generally I do. I've got over 100 games on the Switch, more than I've ever owned for any one device. Except maybe NES since at once point I had a family friend just give me their collection and I inherited my father's collection. I never did count them. (I should really do that next time I dig into storage).

If anything the late PS360/Wii U era was the most dry for me. Although I had all 3 systems I didn't end up playing a whole lot, with most of my gaming being 3DS. Although at that point I was also a semi-broke college student so I didn't exactly have the money to burn on buying games regularly.

Selection of games on Switch is nothing short of astounding! I cannot remotely keep up with all the games I want to play and also go to work, sleep, and maintain any vague semblance of a social life. I don't care if a game is an exclusive, a 3rd party, an indie or a port. What matters to me is that it's one Switch and a game I like. And there's no lack in that department!

@ThanosReXXX @bimmy-lee We’re both a bit better now, thanks. Maybe it was food, I dunno.

@Heavyarms55 To be fair, only around 15% of The revenue comes from Boeing Defense. But their stock is down 35% lately. The airline cancellations combined with continuing 737 Max issues are not going well for them.

@Wavey84 Really interesting read.

As for me I do not have any experience with the following consoles: Sega Saturn, Dreamcast, Gamecube, Original PS2, Original Xbox, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo Wii U and of course ALL dinosaur consoles like Atari etc.
I consider my gaming journey to start from the NES.

I love every single console because each one has it share of joy. Well I love the handhelds the most but grew to love the home consoles as well.

And from that point on the collecting started. I doubt that it will ever stop
