I have not and I think theres one on game pass that I've been looking at. Its caught my eye a few times but havent played it yet. And hell yes to that, I'm all for more RPGs in this style. Divinity Original Sin II is still my fave but there are quite a number of good ones. I still need to get back into Pillars of Eternity II because that one is honestly fantastic.

Pokemon Music Covers: Pokestir
I think I have mentioned it a few times here that I love hearing covers of video game music. And I even posted a few Pokemon focused ones, and generally I am pretty pleased. However, I was surfing through Spotify one day and stumbled upon a cover of the Kanto Trainer Battle theme and I was instantly blown away. The artists name is Pokestir and I've been listening to his stuff for the past few days now. It's all quality, and definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of Pokemon music and especially Pokemon music covers. Here's a few that I love: Kanto Trainer Battle Spoiler for video:

Pokemon Music Covers: Braxton Burks
Bandcamp: https://braxtonburks.bandcamp.com/ I'm going to talk about another artist that does Pokemon music, and I think I have talked about it before, but it's Braxton Burks. Instead of me telling you what kind of versions he does, I'll just let you listen. Here's a few of the tracks that I really like but honestly any of them are good: Spoiler for more videos:

Pokemon Music Covers: Pokemon Theme Song
I haven't had much of a chance this month to talk about the main theme song for the Pokemon anime, but god damn it is good. And yes, there have been many different kinds of covers made for it, however nothing will ever touch the original as far as I'm concerned. Covers aren't bad though. Give some a listen: Spoiler for video:

Collecting Stuff: Pokemon
I enjoy collecting things whether it be vinyl, VHS tapes, video games. Though I feel a little deja vu as I think I have mentioned this before in a previous theme month. Well, anyway, yeah I like collecting things. And one of those things is Pokemon items. Whether it be posters, cards, again video games, and whatever else. I try to collect many different kinds of things so that as a whole, I have mini collections of everything I like. However, I was not anticipating ever having this particular item in my collection again, and the way I acquired it is quite the neat story. We're here to talk about this bad boy: Spoiler for image:
If I remember correctly, I believe I had one of these as a kid, but at some point in time had lost it. And although I had never really planned on looking for another one, my brother had been at a flea market and noticed people were selling Pokemon items. He had picked up a copy of Pokemon Red and Pokemon Silver and some Pokemon cards. Keeping in mind I had no idea he was even looking for stuff for me. Though then he said he had one more item but he wanted it to be more of a surprise. During this same time, he showed me the Poke Ball box and although it was empty, he then showed me the actual item and I was stoked. Again, not even thinking for a second that he had gotten this for me in particular, but he did. And it has been a part of my collection for a while now. I think that's honestly one of the coolest aspects of Pokemon is that even if you aren't as interested in the games as you were as a kid, there are still tons of ways to show your love of Pokemon by collecting other things. And I understand the slight irony of collecting things of a topic that revolves around collecting Pokemon. I getcha. I think the little toys and figures like the one I posted above are still cool enough to this day to look out for. And I also know that there are two more of these, of which they are different Pokemon. But for the moment, I have the Pikachu one. And I love it. |
