Pokemon Legends: Z-A Zygarde location guide
Posted on 5 days ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
We’ve sharing another Pokemon Legends: Z-A location guide, this time for Zygarde.
It’s been over a week since the release of the game, and we assume some of you might be wondering how to catch Zygarde, the game’s titular Legendary Pokemon. As you might expect, Zygarde is the final Legendary Pokemon available in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, and you’ll need to clear the main story in order to access it. It’s a guaranteed capture, though, which means you can use any Poke Ball you want with no chance of failure. It also means you definitely shouldn’t use a Master Ball.

8 years later, why Super Mario Odyssey is still a fantastic 3D platformer

At this point, there aren’t many people who haven’t played Super Mario Odyssey. It first released in late 2017 as one of the Nintendo Switch’s premier first-year titles, and it was quickly met with critical acclaim. The game came during a time when fans felt the series was starting to stagnate. In 2016, you had titles like Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash, Super Mario Run, and Paper Mario: Color Splash – and while most weren’t bad, they all carried that same corporate Mario feeling. Even Super Mario 3D World, which is now widely regarded as a great game, was criticized at the time for its linearity and similarity to Super Mario 3D Land. Super Mario Odyssey was essentially Nintendo’s way of saying that new and fresh ideas were back on the table for the series.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A The World’s Greatest Pikachu quest guide
Posted on 5 days ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
For those playing Pokemon Legends: Z-A, we have a guide specifically for The World’s Greatest Pikachu quest.
Most of Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s side quests are self-explanatory. Technically, this one is too – but despite being centered around a fairly weak Pokemon, The World’s Greatest Pikachu is actually one of the tougher missions you’ll take on. You’ll be able to accept this mission in Rouge Sector 1’s battle court, in which you’ll need to fight and defeat a grade-schooler’s Pikachu who he claims is the strongest in the world. Indeed, there’s one problem here: this Pikachu is Level 66 and has a Light Ball, and you can’t obtain a Light Ball of your own until you finish this mission. Here’s how we cleared it.
