Pokemon X and the Pokemon anime



As the Pokemon movie I Choose You came out recently, I thought that I would contribute to the 20th anniversary celebrations with some Pokemon themed posts.

So, throughout the years my group of friends has definitely changed. And currently I am good friends with a great group of nerds (like me :) ). They all have a passion for one thing. Anime. Especially Haikyu, Yuri on Ice and Attack on Titan. However, even though I am a Japanese person, I have never watched anime. This may come as a shock to you, it did to my friends. But in around January, I thought 'Why not?' So I started to watch Pokemon XY and I really enjoyed it. The only experience I've had with Pokemon is through the Pokemon Go app which I have been having fun with. After I had finished XYZ, I decided to watch Pokemon Best Wishes or Pokemon Black and White as it is known in English. I enjoyed Best Wishes but not as much as XYZ. At the moment, I am watching Pokemon Sun and Moon, I know some people are not a fan of it as the animation style has definitely changed but I like it. I definitely would like to play the games someday when I have more time.

I borrowed my friend's copy of Pokemon X and so far, it's been great fun to play. I could not make my mind up at all when I had to choose my starter Pokemon; I really love Serena's Braixen but am not a fan of Delphox's design and Ash's Greninja was just awesome. I really like Chespin but I really do not like the design of its evolutions, Quilladin and Chesnaught. In the end, I chose Froakie and I don't regret it at all. I just got my 8th Gym Badge at the Snowbelle Gym and I think that I have a pretty good team which consists of Greninja, Charizard, Talonflame, Salamance, Lucario and Sylveon. I'm considering not going to Victory Road straight away, I really want to put together a team of just Eevolutions just for fun since I think that they are great Pokemon. Being a musician, the music in games are pretty important to me and Pokemon X did not disappoint. My favourites are Anistar City, Snowbelle City and Melancolie Path. If you aren't familiar with them, go listen to them, I think that they are brilliant and add to the sense of a great journey. I also want to see if I can find and catch a shiny Pokemon, who knows if I'll be able to find one since they are unbelievably rare. What else can I say, my first play through of a Pokemon game so far has been great.

I've slowly been working on a birthday present for a good friend of mine who absolutely loves Pokemon by putting together a Kalos Pokedex. I've been drawing all of the Kalos Pokemon by hand and have been putting them together in a notebook for her. I've enjoyed making it so far and I hope that she will like it.

Here is a page of the Pokedex


So I hope that you enjoyed this post. I'm planning more Pokemon themed posts for this summer so please come back for more Pokemon fun. Also, please like, comment and subscribe as it really helps me out. I will try to post frequently and regularly, however at the moment, my computer broke and my iPad keeps crashing on, making blog writing difficult. So if there isn't a post for a while, you know what's happening.
