It’s been a big year for Nintendo Switch 2 accessories, as tons of different manufacturers try to get in on the action with their own products. We’ve reviewed the Genki Attack Vector, the Savage Raven NeoGrip, the Savage Raven StandGrip, the JSAUX Split Protective Case, and the dbrand Killswitch. And after testing out all of these grips (and spending a crazy amount of money), we’ve finally found the best one. It took a while for Satisfye’s ZenGrip 2 to become available – shipping delays and such means that customers are only now receiving their item – but many have found that the wait was worth it. How does the ZenGrip 2 hold up against other options on the market?

Pokemon Legends: Z-A glitch found to duplicate shiny Pokemon

Posted on 10 hours ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments

A brand new method has been discovered in Pokemon Legends: Z-A that lets players clone shiny Pokemon, which is done by taking advantage of a glitch. This works presently, but note that there’s a strong chance that it will be patched out sometime soon.

Austin John Plays shared those findings in a new video today. It’s recommended to not keep both if you plan on using Pokemon Home – meaning you hold on to one, and trade the other. That’s because if you trade one away and keep one, they are not treated as clones. Pokemon Home has a clone check system.

Below are the steps for the Shiny Pokemon duplication glitch in Pokemon Legends: Z-A:

Pokemon Legends: Z-A Zygarde location guide

Posted on 1 day 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.
