[00:30.000 –> 00:36.000] Hello, farmers, and welcome to another episode of The Harvest Season. My name is Cody. [00:36.000 –> 00:37.000] I’m Kevin. [00:37.000 –> 00:40.000] And we’re here today to talk about Cottagecore Games. [00:40.000 –> 00:43.000] Ooh, not Wildflowers this time, I promise you. [00:43.000 –> 00:50.000] Not. We have Kevin on an episode and it’s not about Wildflowers, y’all. [00:50.000 –> 00:52.000] Reset the clock. How many? [00:52.000 –> 00:58.000] Al’s got the little flippy calendar clock saying X many days since the Wildflowers episode. [00:58.000 –> 01:01.000] X many days since Kevin… I’m glad you’re enjoying it so much. [01:01.000 –> 01:04.000] I actually haven’t listened to the episodes. [01:04.000 –> 01:10.000] But you recently interviewed a voice actor, question mark? [01:10.000 –> 01:13.000] Yes, the voice for Tara, the main character. [01:13.000 –> 01:15.000] That is amazing. [01:15.000 –> 01:17.000] It was so fun. [01:17.000 –> 01:21.000] A game having a whole voice acting cast is pretty amazing. [01:21.000 –> 01:23.000] It’s pretty amazing. [01:24.000 –> 01:26.000] Valerie is her name. [01:26.000 –> 01:31.000] For people who didn’t listen, I suggest you go back and listen. [01:31.000 –> 01:33.000] She was an absolute delight. [01:33.000 –> 01:39.000] For people who played the game, she’s a lot like Tara. [01:39.000 –> 01:41.000] She’s sweet and bubbly. [01:41.000 –> 01:43.000] That’s great. [01:43.000 –> 01:47.000] But anyways, that is last episode. [01:47.000 –> 01:53.000] In this episode, we are talking about Roots of Pacha. [01:53.000 –> 01:55.000] That’s the Stone Dew Valley. [01:55.000 –> 01:57.000] Stone Dew Valley. [01:57.000 –> 02:04.000] I definitely have suggested it to people by calling it Stone Age Stardew. [02:04.000 –> 02:06.000] I think is the way that I’ve called it. [02:06.000 –> 02:08.000] Yes, Stone Age Stardew. [02:08.000 –> 02:12.000] But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. [02:12.000 –> 02:16.000] In a recent episode, we talked about what makes a Stardew clone. [02:16.000 –> 02:19.000] I do think that this is similar to a Stardew clone, [02:19.000 –> 02:22.000] but it has a decent amount that’s unique. [02:22.000 –> 02:26.000] I actually really enjoy that. [02:26.000 –> 02:29.000] We will certainly get into that. [02:29.000 –> 02:32.000] Before that, we have a very little bit of news. [02:32.000 –> 02:37.000] But before that, Kevin, what have you been up to? [02:37.000 –> 02:41.000] For that, transcripts are available on the website as per always. [02:41.000 –> 02:43.000] You’re right. [02:43.000 –> 02:45.000] No, that’s fine. [02:45.000 –> 02:47.000] But anyways, thank you. [02:47.000 –> 02:49.000] What have I been up to? [02:49.000 –> 02:51.000] A lot of the same as always. [02:51.000 –> 02:53.000] May is a busy month for me. [02:53.000 –> 02:57.000] I’m just sticking with the usuals. [02:57.000 –> 03:00.000] Wildflowers continues to deliver. [03:00.000 –> 03:03.000] Roots of Pacha. Hey, I’ve been playing that game. Surprise. [03:03.000 –> 03:07.000] Pokemon Unite has an Eevee event going on. [03:07.000 –> 03:09.000] Umbreon and Leafeon are coming out. [03:10.000 –> 03:13.000] That means you can finally have a team of five Eevees, [03:13.000 –> 03:16.000] a full team of Eevees in the game, which just sounds hilarious. [03:16.000 –> 03:18.000] I did. I was laughing the other day, [03:18.000 –> 03:21.000] because I think I was listening to It’s Super Effective, [03:21.000 –> 03:26.000] and they were talking about how the Umbreon and another one got added to it. [03:26.000 –> 03:29.000] But there was three Pokemon added in that update, [03:29.000 –> 03:33.000] and it was Umbreon, Leafeon, and Inteleon. [03:33.000 –> 03:38.000] Yeah, the secret Eevee evolution. [03:38.000 –> 03:40.000] I didn’t even think about that. [03:40.000 –> 03:43.000] Inteleon and Eevee confirmed. [03:43.000 –> 03:45.000] Stealth Eevee. [03:45.000 –> 03:49.000] It’s like they told an intern, [03:49.000 –> 03:53.000] oh, we’re having an Eevee event, so add a bunch of the Eons. [03:53.000 –> 03:56.000] And someone was like, okay. [03:56.000 –> 04:02.000] I’m envisioning an Eevee family photo, [04:02.000 –> 04:05.000] and Inteleon just taped over a Flareon. [04:05.000 –> 04:08.000] I was like, that one’s fine. [04:11.000 –> 04:13.000] So that’s been fun. [04:13.000 –> 04:14.000] Yeah, Unite’s been good. [04:14.000 –> 04:16.000] They’re not actually in the game as of yet. [04:16.000 –> 04:19.000] At least not, because I think they might be in the beta server or whatever. [04:19.000 –> 04:21.000] But it continues to be fun. [04:21.000 –> 04:25.000] Marvel Snap is, you know, Marvel Snap. [04:25.000 –> 04:30.000] Other than that, I did happen to see the Mirio movie. [04:30.000 –> 04:31.000] Have you seen that? [04:31.000 –> 04:32.000] I sure did. [04:32.000 –> 04:33.000] That was a good movie. [04:33.000 –> 04:35.000] I like the movie. [04:35.000 –> 04:37.000] I like when they did the thing. [04:37.000 –> 04:40.000] It was, it sure was a movie. [04:40.000 –> 04:45.000] Okay, look, when I talk about movies, right, [04:45.000 –> 04:49.000] I just by default, like if we’re talking about this kind of movie, [04:49.000 –> 04:52.000] I’m not putting it next to Schindler’s List. [04:52.000 –> 04:56.000] Like I’m talking, this is dumb, turn your brain off popcorn movie. [04:56.000 –> 05:00.000] Right, so like it’s, you know, it has its limitations. [05:00.000 –> 05:04.000] But looking at its peers, it’s I enjoyed it. [05:04.000 –> 05:07.000] I know Jack Black was good. [05:07.000 –> 05:08.000] That’s the main thing. [05:08.000 –> 05:10.000] Okay, that’s pretty much all that matters, though. [05:10.000 –> 05:15.000] His not spoiling, but his story. [05:15.000 –> 05:19.000] Like, yeah, it was just not it was not what I expected. [05:19.000 –> 05:23.000] But it’s so funny because like I was shocked and then I was like, [05:23.000 –> 05:25.000] oh, it’s Jack Black. [05:25.000 –> 05:26.000] Okay, it’s fine. [05:26.000 –> 05:28.000] Okay, so there’s two, whatever. [05:28.000 –> 05:30.000] There’s two things I have. [05:30.000 –> 05:31.000] Well, one, I agree with you. [05:31.000 –> 05:35.000] Yes, like Jack Black that just played perfectly into Jack Black [05:35.000 –> 05:37.000] and his strengths. [05:37.000 –> 05:43.000] But two, like a lot of that does kind of stick with the Marius [05:43.000 –> 05:45.000] quote unquote script lore, whatever you want to call it. [05:45.000 –> 05:46.000] Right. [05:46.000 –> 05:49.000] It’s goofy and canon and absurd. [05:49.000 –> 05:51.000] But you know, it’s fine. [05:51.000 –> 05:53.000] It was great. [05:53.000 –> 05:56.000] But yeah, so that’s that’s all I’ve been up to really. [05:56.000 –> 05:57.000] What about you, Cody? [05:57.000 –> 05:58.000] What have you been up to? [05:58.000 –> 06:00.000] Um, my research. [06:00.000 –> 06:04.000] So I am doing my comprehensive exam next month. [06:04.000 –> 06:10.000] And basically what that is, is you present what you are planning to [06:10.000 –> 06:14.000] do for your day for your doctorate to your committee. [06:14.000 –> 06:16.000] And you say, here, this is what I’m going to do. [06:16.000 –> 06:19.000] This is why it’s important to do. [06:19.000 –> 06:21.000] This is how I would do it. [06:21.000 –> 06:23.000] This is why I’m qualified to do it. [06:23.000 –> 06:28.000] And then to basically like build up your final few years. [06:28.000 –> 06:34.000] And then they say, yeah, looks good or nope, you’re not good enough. [06:34.000 –> 06:36.000] If you fail your comps, you do get another shot. [06:36.000 –> 06:40.000] They give you like suggestions of how to revise it. [06:40.000 –> 06:42.000] So it’s not like I would just fail out. [06:42.000 –> 06:43.000] Right. [06:43.000 –> 06:45.000] And I don’t expect to fail. [06:45.000 –> 06:48.000] When I met with my committee a few months ago and told them like I gave [06:48.000 –> 06:51.000] them a rundown, they were all like, this is a really good. [06:51.000 –> 06:53.000] Like this is a really good group of projects that you’re doing. [06:53.000 –> 06:54.000] And it looks really good. [06:54.000 –> 06:58.000] So I’ve been working on that, but also, you know, putting stuff out to trap [06:58.000 –> 07:03.000] insects, um, starting my forest insect community surveys, which is super fun. [07:03.000 –> 07:10.000] Um, I also started a new job, so, uh, hilariously to no one’s surprise. [07:10.000 –> 07:14.000] Um, doctoral students are not really paid enough. [07:14.000 –> 07:17.000] Oh, I haven’t heard. [07:17.000 –> 07:18.000] Yeah. [07:18.000 –> 07:23.000] And we were, they, the department was going to give us a, a boost to our stipends. [07:23.000 –> 07:29.000] However, um, there was recently a fairly large budget cut across my entire university. [07:29.000 –> 07:31.000] And so they’re not able to do that anymore. [07:31.000 –> 07:34.000] Um, and so I’ve been finding like alternate revenue sources. [07:34.000 –> 07:37.000] And so I started working at a coffee shop, same for fun. [07:37.000 –> 07:43.000] Um, but the biggest thing that I’ve been playing is Roots of Pacha. [07:43.000 –> 07:49.000] Um, not just because of the podcast, but just like, it’s, it’s just genuinely a good time. [07:49.000 –> 07:55.000] Like even after, even after we talk about it today and it’s quote unquote off my plate, [07:55.000 –> 08:00.000] um, whatever that means, uh, I’m still going to continue to play it. [08:00.000 –> 08:01.000] I am too. [08:01.000 –> 08:03.000] I’m enjoying it. [08:03.000 –> 08:07.000] I’m definitely not like I’ve put, Oh gosh, I probably should have checked how many hours [08:07.000 –> 08:08.000] I’ve put into this game. [08:08.000 –> 08:14.000] And hilariously, I don’t think Steam is on this computer is going to show me because [08:14.000 –> 08:19.000] because of reasons that we will get it because of reasons. [08:19.000 –> 08:26.000] Um, uh, one note I want to add, uh, uh, our friend Kelly, the guest host on the podcast [08:26.000 –> 08:30.000] every now and then I also got her into Roots of Pacha and she’s been playing nonstop. [08:30.000 –> 08:32.000] She’s farther ahead than I am. [08:32.000 –> 08:34.000] Um, oh, it is. [08:35.000 –> 08:40.000] If I click on it’s steam page, it goes away. [08:40.000 –> 08:49.000] Um, it says I’m at like 27 hours, but I don’t know how I think I’ve played a little bit [08:49.000 –> 08:50.000] more than that. [08:50.000 –> 08:56.000] Um, I think this, um, but, uh, I wonder why it has updated. [08:56.000 –> 08:57.000] Yeah. [08:57.000 –> 09:03.000] So let’s, let’s just get through the first little tiny bit of news before we, um, before [09:03.000 –> 09:05.000] we jump into that barrel of fish. [09:05.000 –> 09:08.000] Uh, so our first bit of news is about ooblets. [09:08.000 –> 09:11.000] There is now a plushie. [09:11.000 –> 09:14.000] So this is the first ever ooblets plushie and you can sign up for it now. [09:14.000 –> 09:19.000] Um, and there’s going to be a link in the show notes and this is also, um, at ooblets.com. [09:19.000 –> 09:22.000] It looks like it’s a Shrumbo. [09:22.000 –> 09:24.000] So it’s a little mushroom dude. [09:24.000 –> 09:25.000] Yup. [09:25.000 –> 09:26.000] Not, not a toad. [09:26.000 –> 09:28.000] Um, not to be confused with the movie. [09:28.000 –> 09:30.000] You thought he was a toad? [09:30.000 –> 09:31.000] No, no. [09:31.000 –> 09:32.000] Okay. [09:32.000 –> 09:33.000] So he has a similar face. [09:33.000 –> 09:34.000] I’m just saying. [09:34.000 –> 09:35.000] It’s a little mushroom. [09:35.000 –> 09:40.000] Um, but, um, from boat, man, what a name from boat. [09:40.000 –> 09:41.000] Um, it’s a cute plushie. [09:41.000 –> 09:42.000] I’ll say that. [09:42.000 –> 09:45.000] Um, oh, it’s through fan gamer. [09:45.000 –> 09:46.000] Okay. [09:46.000 –> 09:47.000] Yeah. [09:47.000 –> 09:48.000] They do good stuff. [09:48.000 –> 09:49.000] Um, yeah. [09:49.000 –> 09:50.000] Click on the link. [09:50.000 –> 09:54.000] You can see it through the ooblets newsletter, probably on the fan gamer site. [09:54.000 –> 09:55.000] You can see it. [09:55.000 –> 09:58.000] Um, Oh, there’s a, is this recent? [09:58.000 –> 10:00.000] There’s an update to the game. [10:00.000 –> 10:01.000] Yup. [10:01.000 –> 10:04.000] I just saw that there’s a sneaky second spring time update. [10:04.000 –> 10:10.000] So, um, this was, uh, it’s just another update that they have. [10:10.000 –> 10:12.000] So it looks like they have some bug fixes. [10:12.000 –> 10:17.000] They’ve added some ways, uh, some places that you can put your Glennie globes. [10:17.000 –> 10:22.000] Um, there’s a new bookshelf on a sideboard that you can just put your Glennie globes [10:22.000 –> 10:23.000] in. [10:23.000 –> 10:25.000] I’m assuming these are just like, they look like little snow globes. [10:25.000 –> 10:26.000] They’re really cute. [10:26.000 –> 10:27.000] Yeah. [10:27.000 –> 10:31.000] Um, and they’ve just fixed a couple of other bug fix issues. [10:31.000 –> 10:36.000] Um, and, uh, the spring time event that is currently going on in the game ends on May [10:36.000 –> 10:37.000] 31st. [10:37.000 –> 10:41.000] So, um, I think once this podcast goes out, it’s like a week. [10:41.000 –> 10:42.000] You have left. [10:42.000 –> 10:45.000] So, um, but yeah, it’s very cute. [10:45.000 –> 10:46.000] Little plush. [10:46.000 –> 10:51.000] Uh, I do recall when this came out, um, some people in our discord were like, or sorry, [10:51.000 –> 10:52.000] Slack or Slack. [10:52.000 –> 10:56.000] We’re like, this is very cute, but I want this other, this other ooblet. [10:56.000 –> 11:03.000] Oh, so they’re trying to get your sitting cutie ooblets here. [11:03.000 –> 11:04.000] Yeah. [11:04.000 –> 11:08.000] Pretty much a whole new, uh, your cutie patootie ooblets. [11:08.000 –> 11:09.000] That’s what they’d call them. [11:09.000 –> 11:10.000] Something like that. [11:10.000 –> 11:11.000] Yeah. [11:11.000 –> 11:14.000] So one of those names there. [11:14.000 –> 11:16.000] I still haven’t played it. [11:16.000 –> 11:22.000] I haven’t either, but just a shrumbo like ooblets. [11:22.000 –> 11:23.000] I know. [11:23.000 –> 11:31.000] It just, it sounds like the fake names that people come up to kind of, you know, mimic [11:31.000 –> 11:35.000] fake game garble, jargon and garbledy gook. [11:35.000 –> 11:41.000] Um, but anyways, uh, all, all that aside, uh, there you go ooblets people and get your [11:41.000 –> 11:43.000] shrumbo, get your update. [11:43.000 –> 11:51.000] Um, so the next piece of news actually, apparently it came, it came out, uh, that this news popped [11:51.000 –> 11:54.000] two hours after we recorded last week. [11:54.000 –> 11:59.000] Um, so do you want to talk about this guy? [11:59.000 –> 12:00.000] Yeah. [12:00.000 –> 12:05.000] So normally I try to come up with a witty transition, but no, this news is our transition. [12:05.000 –> 12:08.000] Um, because it’s about this game called roots of Pacha. [12:08.000 –> 12:10.000] I don’t know if you’ve heard of it. [12:10.000 –> 12:11.000] You know, I think I’ve heard of it. [12:11.000 –> 12:12.000] Yeah. [12:12.000 –> 12:13.000] Okay. [12:13.000 –> 12:17.000] So this is awkward because I enjoy this game. [12:17.000 –> 12:21.000] I’m going to give it a lot of praise and talk about why I’m enjoying it. [12:21.000 –> 12:28.000] And you, dear listener, you may think, Oh, maybe I do want to try it and mosey on down [12:28.000 –> 12:29.000] to the steam page. [12:29.000 –> 12:32.000] And, Oh, Oh, there’s no, there’s no roots of Pacha there. [12:32.000 –> 12:35.000] You might see roots of Pacha steam anymore. [12:35.000 –> 12:36.000] Oh boy. [12:36.000 –> 12:37.000] Um, okay. [12:37.000 –> 12:43.000] So yeah, that’s the, well, that’s the, I guess the main news that it’s been TD listed. [12:43.000 –> 12:48.000] The reasons why is it’s a little spicy rum on this podcast. [12:48.000 –> 12:49.000] Yeah. [12:49.000 –> 12:50.000] Legit drum. [12:50.000 –> 12:51.000] Yeah. [12:51.000 –> 13:01.000] So in short, at the core of it, there is a dispute between the developer and the publisher [13:01.000 –> 13:02.000] contract dispute. [13:02.000 –> 13:07.000] Um, first the developer, uh, was it dry dock studios? [13:07.000 –> 13:08.000] Is that the one for this? [13:08.000 –> 13:09.000] Yeah. [13:09.000 –> 13:12.000] You know, dry dock is wildflowers. [13:12.000 –> 13:13.000] Okay. [13:13.000 –> 13:15.000] Um, switch your brain. [13:15.000 –> 13:17.000] We’re not talking about wildflowers anymore. [13:17.000 –> 13:18.000] I’m pretty sure. [13:18.000 –> 13:19.000] Okay. [13:19.000 –> 13:20.000] Soda den. [13:20.000 –> 13:21.000] Yes, it is soda den. [13:21.000 –> 13:24.000] Um, who, um, I tried digging for details. [13:24.000 –> 13:25.000] There aren’t many, right? [13:25.000 –> 13:29.000] So there’s any speculation speculation. [13:29.000 –> 13:35.000] There’s the main source of information are two tweets, one from soda den on the official [13:35.000 –> 13:37.000] roots of Pacha, uh, Twitter account. [13:37.000 –> 13:44.000] Um, they are trying to resolve the issue with Crotevo, the publisher company. [13:44.000 –> 13:49.000] Um, they have a dispute in to use their quote. [13:49.000 –> 13:54.000] Uh, they’ve been engaged in a dispute with Crotevo over the rights to roots of Pacha. [13:54.000 –> 13:58.000] Uh, there’s no details given if it’s monetary IP or whatever. [13:58.000 –> 14:06.000] Um, but, uh, because of this, uh, soda den says they weren’t able to resolve the issues [14:06.000 –> 14:07.000] yet. [14:07.000 –> 14:13.000] So Crotevo went to valve and, uh, authorized them to remove roots of Pacha, uh, from steam [14:13.000 –> 14:16.000] without soda den’s knowledge or consent. [14:16.000 –> 14:20.000] Um, uh, that all, so that’s mostly the info from them. [14:20.000 –> 14:25.000] Um, they also say they are still working on the game and they are hoping to actually introduce [14:25.000 –> 14:29.000] a roadmap with, uh, updates for next month. [14:29.000 –> 14:39.000] Um, now Crotevo, uh, responded quote unquote, more or less, um, with another tweet soon [14:39.000 –> 14:42.000] after actually in the same Twitter thread. [14:42.000 –> 14:43.000] Ooh, that’s dramatic. [14:43.000 –> 14:48.000] Um, yeah, they, they literally Crotevo didn’t do their own PO. [14:48.000 –> 14:56.000] I mean, it was, was their own post, but they did it as a, as a reply to the roots of Pacha [14:56.000 –> 14:57.000] soda den team. [14:57.000 –> 15:03.000] Um, and then they, uh, quote tweeted themselves or retweeted themselves or whatever, but it’s [15:03.000 –> 15:05.000] basically just like a reply. [15:05.000 –> 15:06.000] Yeah. [15:06.000 –> 15:12.000] Um, and so they’re say, uh, from their perspective, uh, they’ve been collaborating with soda den [15:12.000 –> 15:13.000] for three years. [15:13.000 –> 15:17.000] Um, and the game launched on April 25th up to that point. [15:17.000 –> 15:25.000] And then on April 27th, just two days after the release, um, they received a message from [15:25.000 –> 15:32.000] the soda den people, uh, and they were clay again, I’m going to use their quote here informing [15:32.000 –> 15:33.000] us. [15:33.000 –> 15:37.000] They were claiming to unilaterally rescind the contract we had worked under for three [15:37.000 –> 15:39.000] years, treating it as void. [15:39.000 –> 15:48.000] Um, uh, they say that disregards their work and agreed upon revenue sharing terms. [15:48.000 –> 15:56.000] Um, and then shortly after they sorta then removed Partivo’s access to the steam page. [15:56.000 –> 16:01.000] Um, and that’s when supposedly they reached out to valve to remove the game from steam. [16:01.000 –> 16:06.000] Um, they bow and then got generic stuff. [16:06.000 –> 16:08.000] It says per valve policy. [16:08.000 –> 16:13.000] If there is a dispute between parties, they remove the page until the dispute is resolved. [16:13.000 –> 16:14.000] True. [16:14.000 –> 16:15.000] True. [16:15.000 –> 16:16.000] But somebody had to let them know. [16:16.000 –> 16:17.000] Right. [16:17.000 –> 16:18.000] Yeah. [16:18.000 –> 16:23.000] So I don’t know if it was, you know, I wonder if it was something like the critical people [16:23.000 –> 16:30.000] reached out to vowel, like the steam, um, it and was like, Hey, our password’s not working [16:30.000 –> 16:31.000] anymore or something like that. [16:31.000 –> 16:34.000] And then Val was like, Oh, shenanigans. [16:34.000 –> 16:35.000] So possibly. [16:35.000 –> 16:36.000] Yeah. [16:36.000 –> 16:38.000] So there’s really, Oh, sorry. [16:38.000 –> 16:40.000] Continue what you’re no, no, just, just, yeah. [16:40.000 –> 16:42.000] I mean, this is okay. [16:42.000 –> 16:43.000] So that’s roughly the facts. [16:43.000 –> 16:46.000] These two tweets, um, here we’re getting to speculation territory. [16:46.000 –> 16:47.000] You might be right. [16:47.000 –> 16:50.000] Um, it could have been valve who took notice. [16:50.000 –> 16:52.000] It could have been critical tipping them off. [16:52.000 –> 16:53.000] I don’t know. [16:53.000 –> 16:58.000] Um, uh, it’s, this is a messy, messy issue, right? [16:58.000 –> 17:05.000] Because so one thing I looked up, um, trying to get through the details I could, um, uh, [17:05.000 –> 17:09.000] not necessarily maybe this specific thing, but at least some of the context and whatnot. [17:09.000 –> 17:13.000] So to then appears to be very small, um, roots of ponchos, their first and only game, from [17:13.000 –> 17:14.000] what I understand. [17:14.000 –> 17:16.000] It was started by a pair of brothers. [17:16.000 –> 17:18.000] I don’t know how big the team is currently. [17:18.000 –> 17:23.000] Um, and generally speaking, I tried to side with little developers like that. [17:23.000 –> 17:24.000] Right. [17:24.000 –> 17:28.000] Um, maybe they didn’t understand the contract. [17:28.000 –> 17:30.000] Maybe they were just unhappy with it. [17:30.000 –> 17:31.000] I don’t know. [17:31.000 –> 17:37.000] But Oh, the way Cretivo has framed it, how they, uh, uh, so did an approach the issue [17:37.000 –> 17:42.000] of, of just saying, we’re not, you know, paraphrasing here in my own words at the tone [17:42.000 –> 17:45.000] it came across, like, we’re just not going to agree to the contract. [17:45.000 –> 17:48.000] It’s no, I don’t know if that’s the best move. [17:48.000 –> 17:50.000] That’s, that’s a bold move. [17:50.000 –> 17:58.000] Um, I don’t, and again, I don’t know obviously without the specifics, the, what the arguments [17:58.000 –> 17:59.000] about dispute, whatever. [17:59.000 –> 18:01.000] I don’t know who’s in the right here. [18:01.000 –> 18:03.000] Could be blamed both sides. [18:03.000 –> 18:05.000] Cretivo could be a little unfair. [18:05.000 –> 18:06.000] I don’t know. [18:06.000 –> 18:09.000] Um, on that note, actually, I had fun. [18:09.000 –> 18:11.000] There was a Reddit thread regarding this issue. [18:11.000 –> 18:14.000] Uh, there’s back and forth. [18:14.000 –> 18:18.000] Some people say Cretivo has had unfair contracts in the past. [18:18.000 –> 18:25.000] And then there’s been words from other developers who worked from Cretivo that have said, no, [18:25.000 –> 18:28.000] it’s actually fine that this is a lot of standard stuff. [18:28.000 –> 18:34.000] Um, again, no one knows the actual specifics to the roots of Pacha. [18:34.000 –> 18:42.000] So did in case, um, and it’s, yeah, so it’s, it’s unclear, uncertain. [18:42.000 –> 18:52.000] Um, and when we’re going to get it back, if question mark, I, I imagine as publisher, [18:52.000 –> 18:53.000] again, this is speculation. [18:53.000 –> 18:59.000] I know expert in this, but from what I have read and heard, they might have rights to [18:59.000 –> 19:05.000] get another developer if need be to finish the game or stuff they were planning. [19:05.000 –> 19:06.000] I don’t 100% know. [19:06.000 –> 19:10.000] Again, that’s, that’s kind of, uh, amateur investigating. [19:10.000 –> 19:14.000] Um, all right, Cody, I think I’ve given the gist. [19:14.000 –> 19:15.000] What’s, what’s your thoughts? [19:15.000 –> 19:16.000] Give me the story. [19:16.000 –> 19:17.000] Yeah. [19:17.000 –> 19:19.000] I mean, I think that there’s just not a lot of information here. [19:19.000 –> 19:25.000] Um, I think that both of the teams are handling it well, you know, like being, they, they [19:25.000 –> 19:34.000] posted their, their respective, um, statements with the details that they wanted to provide. [19:34.000 –> 19:38.000] And they are, you know, going to try and resolve the issue. [19:38.000 –> 19:42.000] Um, roots of Pacha folks said that they’re going to continue to work on it. [19:42.000 –> 19:48.000] Um, while it’s, even though, uh, it’s not currently up on steam anymore, though, if [19:48.000 –> 19:54.000] you’ve already purchased it on steam, you can play it, um, purchased it and downloaded [19:54.000 –> 19:55.000] it. [19:55.000 –> 20:01.000] So even, you know, after this happened, this happened on May 13th, um, I’ve still played [20:01.000 –> 20:03.000] the game multiple times since then. [20:03.000 –> 20:05.000] I haven’t had any issues. [20:05.000 –> 20:07.000] Um, I think it might limit our ability. [20:07.000 –> 20:13.000] Like, I don’t know how, if they do any bugs or any patch fixes or anything, like, I don’t [20:13.000 –> 20:16.000] know if they can push those while this is happening. [20:16.000 –> 20:22.000] Um, or if it’s just that this, the page went down and no one can purchase it right anymore. [20:22.000 –> 20:33.000] Um, but I mean, I just, I, I, I can see both sides and, um, I just hope that it gets resolved [20:33.000 –> 20:36.000] in a way that both parties feel okay. [20:36.000 –> 20:41.000] You know, like that’s, no one’s going to get the, a raw, a raw deal or something. [20:41.000 –> 20:45.000] Um, I mean, that’s really all I, all I, yeah. [20:45.000 –> 20:48.000] I mean, ultimately that’s all we can do, right? [20:48.000 –> 20:50.000] Like, yeah, we’re just going off to tweets. [20:50.000 –> 20:51.000] We don’t know. [20:51.000 –> 20:54.000] We just want, I just want more roots of Pacha. [20:54.000 –> 20:55.000] It will be interesting. [20:55.000 –> 21:04.000] So Cretivo is also the, the, not the developer, but the publisher of, um, of above snakes. [21:04.000 –> 21:06.000] Ooh. [21:06.000 –> 21:11.000] So Cretivo has a good number of titles in their publishing house. [21:11.000 –> 21:12.000] So it’ll be really interesting. [21:12.000 –> 21:18.000] So cause above snakes is coming out, um, in about a week, about nine days, six days, whatever. [21:18.000 –> 21:24.000] Some I don’t remember words are hard, uh, on the 25th of May. [21:24.000 –> 21:30.000] And so, um, since that’s, you know, coming out, uh, we’ll see if there’s a similar issue [21:30.000 –> 21:37.000] and if it’s something that might be Cretivo based or if it’s something that, um, that is, [21:37.000 –> 21:41.000] was just a miscommunication between a developer and a publisher. [21:41.000 –> 21:43.000] Yeah. [21:43.000 –> 21:50.000] I’m just imagining we do an above snakes episode and, and the news drops right before too. [21:50.000 –> 21:54.000] Um, but no, um, yeah, I don’t know. [21:54.000 –> 21:55.000] I just, yeah. [21:55.000 –> 21:57.000] Hope it gets resolved soon. [21:57.000 –> 22:02.000] Like the weirdest awkward part is that, uh, well in, you know, unless things have been [22:02.000 –> 22:06.000] resolved by the time this episode actually drops that people can’t get it right. [22:06.000 –> 22:09.000] Like that sucks cause I really recommend this game. [22:09.000 –> 22:10.000] Yeah. [22:10.000 –> 22:15.000] I’ve been repping it to people, um, and saying how great it is and, and telling people like [22:15.000 –> 22:22.000] customers come up and I tell them that I’m playing it, um, and recommend it and stuff. [22:22.000 –> 22:29.000] And, and I can say, definitely keep your eye out for when it’s available again. [22:29.000 –> 22:34.000] I’ll definitely, um, like when it, when the issue is resolved and it’s back up on the [22:34.000 –> 22:35.000] steam page, I’ll retweet it. [22:35.000 –> 22:37.000] I’m sure the podcast will as well. [22:37.000 –> 22:43.000] So yeah, if we, if we recommend it and you’re not, and it’s not, it’s not available yet, [22:43.000 –> 22:44.000] just keep an eye out. [22:44.000 –> 22:46.000] Um, and we’ll let you know when it is available for sure. [22:46.000 –> 22:47.000] Yeah. [22:47.000 –> 22:54.000] Um, that all that, you know, that, uh, unfun intro let’s, uh, let’s, let’s get into the [22:54.000 –> 22:55.000] game. [22:55.000 –> 22:56.000] Let’s talk about what is fun. [22:56.000 –> 22:57.000] The game. [22:57.000 –> 22:58.000] Yeah. [22:58.000 –> 22:59.000] Um, okay. [22:59.000 –> 23:04.000] So I think it’s been clear, but let’s, let’s say clearly do you, what, what’s your overall [23:04.000 –> 23:05.000] opinion on the game? [23:05.000 –> 23:06.000] Yeah. [23:06.000 –> 23:08.000] Um, my overall opinion is very positive. [23:08.000 –> 23:15.000] Um, I think there’s parts of the game that are less developed or less like, especially, [23:15.000 –> 23:18.000] so I will say like the romance side of it. [23:18.000 –> 23:23.000] Um, I don’t really see a benefit to getting to know people. [23:23.000 –> 23:29.000] Um, I don’t really see, I mean, I’ve, I go, and then it’s, it’s also kind of difficult [23:29.000 –> 23:31.000] to know what they’re going to like. [23:31.000 –> 23:32.000] Yeah. [23:32.000 –> 23:35.000] So that part is, uh, in my opinion, a little weak. [23:35.000 –> 23:40.000] Um, but I also, I’m just also not the type of human that normally goes around and talks [23:40.000 –> 23:41.000] to everybody. [23:41.000 –> 23:46.000] So this was my issue in stardew as well as I just went for the car, went for like a rando [23:46.000 –> 23:52.000] character that I was like, Ooh, an emo boy that narrows it down to exactly who I am. [23:52.000 –> 23:56.000] And then the next time I went, Ooh, the artist lady. [23:57.000 –> 24:03.000] Um, so yeah, uh, that was a little weaker, but other than that, I mean, it’s, it’s an [24:03.000 –> 24:04.000] amazing game. [24:04.000 –> 24:05.000] I’m having a really good time playing it. [24:05.000 –> 24:09.000] It’s got, um, I haven’t been really bored yet. [24:09.000 –> 24:14.000] I’m still, still trying to clear out, um, parts of the map. [24:14.000 –> 24:19.000] And, uh, I guess like as you are playing other parts of the map become available to you, [24:19.000 –> 24:25.000] like even past after you’ve unlocked the four directions, like some of those areas become [24:26.000 –> 24:27.000] bigger as well. [24:27.000 –> 24:28.000] So that’s really cool. [24:28.000 –> 24:33.000] Um, that hasn’t happened for me yet, but yeah, so that’s my, my gist. [24:33.000 –> 24:34.000] Oh, what about you? [24:34.000 –> 24:36.000] What are you recommend it? [24:36.000 –> 24:37.000] But yeah, I do. [24:37.000 –> 24:38.000] Um, right. [24:38.000 –> 24:40.000] Like I’m, it’s a game. [24:40.000 –> 24:44.000] I think I enjoy more as I play it more. [24:44.000 –> 24:51.000] Um, because my first react, like my knee jerk reaction day one, boy, that’s a stardew valley. [24:52.000 –> 24:55.000] My younger, my younger brother Calvin, I was like playing and he walked away. [24:55.000 –> 24:59.000] I was like, Oh, are you playing stardew? [24:59.000 –> 25:00.000] Um, no. [25:00.000 –> 25:01.000] Yeah. [25:01.000 –> 25:04.000] Um, because, uh, well, yeah. [25:04.000 –> 25:11.000] Um, uh, but that said, um, it learn, I don’t know if it learns the lessons, but it does, [25:11.000 –> 25:13.000] it takes the good things from stardew. [25:13.000 –> 25:20.000] It does, it does well with the template and the things it does on its own or differently [25:20.000 –> 25:22.000] are, are fun and nice. [25:22.000 –> 25:28.000] And it, you, the progression, I think in the game is really good overall. [25:28.000 –> 25:31.000] Um, it’s smooth and feels good. [25:31.000 –> 25:36.000] Um, and, and yeah, and as I get more things, I’ll see more things. [25:36.000 –> 25:38.000] I enjoy it more and more. [25:38.000 –> 25:39.000] Yeah. [25:39.000 –> 25:44.000] Um, so let’s, let’s get into the little, some of these specifics, let’s start with the farming [25:44.000 –> 25:47.000] um, true to our roots here, uh, true to our roots Apache. [25:47.000 –> 25:49.000] Uh, um, okay. [25:49.000 –> 25:55.000] So, uh, the farming, well, you, if you played stardew valley, then you know how to farm [25:55.000 –> 25:56.000] in this game. [25:56.000 –> 26:02.000] Um, the biggest difference, um, and which I find interesting. [26:02.000 –> 26:03.000] Um, right. [26:03.000 –> 26:08.000] So this being the stone age, we’re literally inventing like everything. [26:08.000 –> 26:09.000] Right. [26:09.000 –> 26:13.000] Um, so that that’s, there’s no store, there’s no one who’s done all this stuff. [26:13.000 –> 26:14.000] Right. [26:14.000 –> 26:15.000] There’s no seed shop at first. [26:15.000 –> 26:17.000] Um, you have to go and gather crops. [26:17.000 –> 26:19.000] You have to go find them in the wild. [26:19.000 –> 26:26.000] Um, I will say the, the story of it is that your, your group of people came to this area [26:26.000 –> 26:33.000] and, and were, um, gosh, how would you say this? [26:33.000 –> 26:38.000] Um, the spirits like said to, to stay in this area, like there was a reason they were like, [26:38.000 –> 26:40.000] this is where we should be. [26:40.000 –> 26:46.000] Um, so they traveled, um, over, you know, it showed like a lot of different, like there [26:46.000 –> 26:48.000] was like a desert and, uh, stuff like that. [26:48.000 –> 26:52.000] When you first like start up the game, it shows that you guys travel pretty far. [26:52.000 –> 26:58.000] Um, and then you get to this area and, and your shaman, um, I think it is how he reversed [26:58.000 –> 26:59.000] himself. [26:59.000 –> 27:03.000] He, um, says, this is, this is it, this is where we’re going to stop and this is where [27:03.000 –> 27:04.000] we’re going to settle. [27:05.000 –> 27:11.000] Um, and so you’re starting from the ground, ground up, like you, um, literally, like, [27:11.000 –> 27:18.000] uh, you all have, you know, uh, living structures and you actually are there. [27:18.000 –> 27:19.000] Yeah. [27:19.000 –> 27:22.000] Your hearts are there and you pretty much start out with, you start out living in someone [27:22.000 –> 27:26.000] else’s living structure, um, grandparents quite. [27:26.000 –> 27:27.000] Yeah. [27:27.000 –> 27:28.000] Yes. [27:28.000 –> 27:29.000] I think that is the situation is there. [27:30.000 –> 27:33.000] Your parents passed away when you were younger. [27:33.000 –> 27:39.000] Um, and so these people took you in as, um, as your like adoptive grandparents and so [27:39.000 –> 27:40.000] you live with them. [27:40.000 –> 27:47.000] Um, but then when you want an animal companion, uh, they’re like, your grandma’s allergic, [27:47.000 –> 27:48.000] so you gotta get your own place. [27:50.000 –> 27:55.000] Um, and so you can get your own place, but basically you are building from the ground [27:55.000 –> 27:56.000] up. [27:56.000 –> 28:02.000] And the thing that I love about this game so much is that that’s, that’s so different [28:02.000 –> 28:08.000] in my opinion from other games, um, from other games that I’ve played is that even if you [28:08.000 –> 28:15.000] did nothing, like you could literally wake up and go back to sleep immediately. [28:15.000 –> 28:23.000] The, the community still continues growing and building like they do their own stuff. [28:23.000 –> 28:31.000] Um, and you kind of are just a part of it, but like, it’s not, even though they’re so [28:31.000 –> 28:35.000] there, when you first start out, there’s, you’re only in one area and you can see that [28:35.000 –> 28:39.000] there are definitely clearly like you’re blocked from four other areas. [28:39.000 –> 28:41.000] Um, you don’t do anything. [28:41.000 –> 28:48.000] There’s no, there’s no like you need to build 400, give 400 wood to dude, man, to, to have [28:48.000 –> 28:52.000] him sometimes, but sometimes, but, but for the most part, no, I mean, for the most part [28:52.000 –> 28:56.000] they just do it themselves and then they’re just like, we, we opened this pathway and [28:56.000 –> 29:02.000] then other people came through and, um, or we did this thing and now you can, gosh, I’m [29:02.000 –> 29:03.000] trying to remember. [29:03.000 –> 29:10.000] Oh, I think the sundial, like we built a sundial and now you can know how time works, you know, [29:10.000 –> 29:11.000] stuff like that. [29:11.000 –> 29:13.000] And it, it’s stuff that you don’t have to do anything. [29:13.000 –> 29:15.000] The game will do that by itself. [29:15.000 –> 29:16.000] And I love that. [29:16.000 –> 29:17.000] Um, [29:18.000 –> 29:19.000] yeah. [29:19.000 –> 29:20.000] Yeah. [29:20.000 –> 29:22.000] You bring up a good point that I wanted to make that almost forgot about. [29:22.000 –> 29:23.000] Right. [29:23.000 –> 29:24.000] Like you’re saying, right. [29:24.000 –> 29:25.000] It’s very much the plan. [29:25.000 –> 29:27.000] The whole focus is the plan. [29:27.000 –> 29:30.000] Um, I, you’re not a newcomer to a town. [29:30.000 –> 29:33.000] You’re part of this group already. [29:33.000 –> 29:36.000] You, I mean, you, the play are meeting everyone for the first time. [29:36.000 –> 29:40.000] So they give you a little info box, but you, the character know everyone already. [29:41.000 –> 29:46.000] Um, and that’s really different from pretty much every other cottage core game. [29:46.000 –> 29:49.000] Um, and everyone already has their roles. [29:49.000 –> 29:54.000] Here’s the, the artist, here’s the builder, the tool person, whatever. [29:54.000 –> 29:57.000] Um, and they all do their parts. [29:57.000 –> 30:00.000] Um, of course your role is the farmer. [30:00.000 –> 30:01.000] Right. [30:01.000 –> 30:06.000] So that’s why you have to go around finding wild crops and dardoo farming them and all [30:06.000 –> 30:07.000] that good stuff. [30:07.000 –> 30:08.000] Yeah. [30:08.000 –> 30:15.000] So, um, each season has, um, different crops that, um, different wild like crops that are [30:15.000 –> 30:16.000] growing. [30:16.000 –> 30:21.000] And when you go to these crops and find them, so say you find the tomatoes, you, you’re [30:21.000 –> 30:24.000] not harvesting tomatoes, you’re harvesting the seed. [30:24.000 –> 30:29.000] And so this is really cool because you basically get all the seeds you ever need. [30:29.000 –> 30:32.000] Um, you just have to know where the plant is growing. [30:32.000 –> 30:37.000] Um, a day, a certain amount respond every day or two or whatever. [30:37.000 –> 30:45.000] Oh, so that way, like, so for me, for example, I I’ve made little plots of six of each plant. [30:45.000 –> 30:49.000] Um, so I just need six seeds to get going. [30:49.000 –> 30:52.000] And so I’ll, I’ll start three of them. [30:52.000 –> 30:56.000] And the next day I’ll go check that plant again and hope that two more of them are, [30:56.000 –> 30:58.000] I can collect seed from two more of them. [30:58.000 –> 31:03.000] And then I just keep doing that and then keep making sure, like, just run around the map [31:03.000 –> 31:07.000] and make sure that my seed, seed bag, I think is what it’s called. [31:07.000 –> 31:08.000] Yeah. [31:08.000 –> 31:09.000] Yeah. [31:09.000 –> 31:12.000] There’s, there’s two things I like. [31:12.000 –> 31:20.000] Well, it’s a double edged sword in a sense, um, because on the one hand you have to encourage [31:20.000 –> 31:24.000] you to actually go out and explore the map, um, which I think is great. [31:24.000 –> 31:27.000] Um, and you become familiar with all the spots and stuff. [31:27.000 –> 31:29.000] Um, it’s, it’s a very natural way of doing that. [31:29.000 –> 31:30.000] And it’s great. [31:30.000 –> 31:38.000] Um, the, oh, and, oh, and one thing like, as you farm, like your crops quote unquote improve, [31:38.000 –> 31:44.000] and there’s a little, uh, your adopted grandpa, like he starts farming the seed so you can start buying them. [31:44.000 –> 31:46.000] We’ll, we’ll explain that in a second. [31:46.000 –> 31:47.000] It’s a little weird. [31:47.000 –> 31:50.000] Um, but so you can, there’s other ways you can do it. [31:50.000 –> 31:58.000] Um, but, uh, primarily I think at least I’ve been just out and foraging and gathering the seeds just because it’s so, uh, it just fits. [31:58.000 –> 31:59.000] It works so well. [31:59.000 –> 32:05.000] Um, the only downside to this is if you don’t scrape, sometimes you can miss crops. [32:05.000 –> 32:08.000] I found corn like on the last day of fall. [32:08.000 –> 32:10.000] Oh, yeah. [32:10.000 –> 32:11.000] Yeah. [32:11.000 –> 32:15.000] Um, I think there’s one prop I missed. [32:15.000 –> 32:18.000] I’m at the end of the year, so I’ve like been through all the seasons and whatnot. [32:18.000 –> 32:22.000] Um, and there’s still one crop I missed, but, but I bet I know what it is. [32:22.000 –> 32:24.000] It’s probably the, did you find the Chili’s? [32:24.000 –> 32:25.000] Oh yeah. [32:25.000 –> 32:26.000] I found the Chili’s. [32:26.000 –> 32:27.000] Oh, I think it’s wheat. [32:27.000 –> 32:29.000] Oh, I don’t know. [32:29.000 –> 32:30.000] I have to double check. [32:30.000 –> 32:32.000] No, I found the, I found those pretty late. [32:32.000 –> 32:33.000] I will say that. [32:33.000 –> 32:34.000] I think I found them late. [32:34.000 –> 32:35.000] That was the last one. [32:35.000 –> 32:43.000] I thought I had all of the fall crops and then I, you can look at the seed bag, like in the inventory section. [32:44.000 –> 32:51.000] Um, and it shows you like empty, like, uh, not filled in spaces for all of the like possible crops there are. [32:51.000 –> 32:54.000] And I saw one that had the false sign next to it. [32:54.000 –> 32:56.000] And I was like, who is that? [32:56.000 –> 32:58.000] I was like, I haven’t seen that. [32:58.000 –> 33:00.000] So I went searching for it and I ended up finding it. [33:00.000 –> 33:01.000] So, yeah. [33:01.000 –> 33:10.000] And, and the corn is funny because I was able to get some from, uh, the trading guy, um, and I got some, but I could never find it. [33:10.000 –> 33:12.000] It’s a year two crop or something? [33:12.000 –> 33:13.000] No. [33:13.000 –> 33:18.000] Um, uh, Oh, while we’re at it, I didn’t, I, you can grow fruit trees. [33:18.000 –> 33:22.000] I was, because that’s like a achievement thing or it’s, it’s on your to-do list. [33:22.000 –> 33:23.000] Time to learn how to grow fruit trees. [33:23.000 –> 33:25.000] I didn’t realize you just buy them. [33:25.000 –> 33:27.000] I couldn’t figure out how to buy them. [33:27.000 –> 33:28.000] Yeah. [33:28.000 –> 33:34.000] You can’t, you don’t, when you harvest from fruit trees in the wild, you don’t get, uh, seed. [33:34.000 –> 33:37.000] You just get the fruit. [33:37.000 –> 33:38.000] Lessons learned. [33:38.000 –> 33:39.000] Lessons learned. [33:40.000 –> 33:41.000] Yeah. [33:41.000 –> 33:47.000] But all the, you know, all that, I think this is a good example though, because even though I call these downsides, it doesn’t feel unfair. [33:47.000 –> 33:51.000] Um, like everything, everything still works. [33:51.000 –> 33:59.000] Um, it

We broke down every bit of information from Niantics news post about just the levels itself. Since each level dealt with a different Aspect of the game we talked about each one. Acquiring 41 is basically a catch-athon so open gifts, save balls and berries. 42 Evolutions, speculated on Galar Evolutions, but our thoughts were get all the Evolution stones you can, 7day streak and spinning Pokestops for the various Gen2 stones(maybe gifts), Sinnoh and Unova Stones can be Acquired by doing PVP with a trainer(3per day), Team Leader(1 per day) or fighting a Team Go Rocket leader. Prewalk 2 Eevees to 10 km for the Evolutions save the coin or a Mossy & Glacier Lures Not sure about Sylveon, but save a few ™`s in the event that they introduce it for the global launch. If they introduce a similar mechanic requiring it to learn a Fairy type move. 43 Gym Battles and Platinum Medals Hit the Gyms early in the day it's a battle for each pokemon beat don't heal your pokemon In between fight to save on potions. Best Buddies have a Revive if you switch them in and out of your Buddy slot if they faint. That why the limit is 20 Swaps per day. 44 GBL fighting, not much for us to talk about 45 Team Go Rocket Take your Time, fight the Team leaders after fighting 6 regular Grunts, Do Not Buy a Radar unless you have 2 leaders in close proximity as any grunt fought while having a Radar will not acquire mysterious Components. Also if you have, or they release another Research with Giovanni keep the Super Rocket Radar Equipped so you can defeat the extra Decoys that will count for Mysterious Components and Team Go Rocket defeats. 46 Research Eggs and Snapshots time sink This will be best on a Community day when every research is catch 3, it will be an easy 20-30 considering your average large park. Save your Research Queue Pokemon holds around 40 pokemon and if you are doing alot of throw, catch or berry Quests having a pokemon to catch on Demand make a research grind 100% easier. Hope for an Egg Event or just using 2km in the Infinite incubator. The 7 Day Snapshot is to keep from people buying too many incubators and burning out. 47 Complete a lot of Raids, get every bonus you can. Maybe they will want people to beat a raid with a full team of Murkows? Dont Rush hit the Raid Hours or other raid events. 48 Buddy Up it Could be for new distances, acquire new Souvenirs or it add up the total. Silph road hadResearched where buddies Acquired Their Skipping Stones https://thesilphroad.com/science/souvenir-survey-skipping-stones/ Which means that each location or event with an Ultra Buddy where you open their gift Could reward a unique Souvenir. 49 Friendship Tier Gain more levels, send more gifts, do more trades, save some old pokemon, Save the Gift pokemon and Trade for a higher Distance medal or just trade a bunch for the different medal tiers. 50 Make Excellent Throws save those big pokemon in the research queue, Catch legendary pokemon Or do Both with a large Raid Boss, team go Rocket leaders with 1500cp pokemon will ask for the perfect balance of Strategy and damage, using all the pvp skills. Australia is a Test so some of our theories could hold or their numbers could change too. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/augmentednaturally/message

“Straight Outta Kanto Readz: Bad Creepypasta Volume 2” is an irreverent and uproarious exercise in self-deprecation and bad teenage fiction. Trawling the vaults of their old copy books, Straight Outt Kanto reads for you one of their cringe-worthy, shameful and forgotten (with good reason) Pokémon fan fiction stories. This episode's story is “Spectreon”. A Wicker Man inspired oddity about an ancient island with an ancient curse... and a lot of unhappy Eevees.
