    I’ve been really excited about this shiny Mega Gengar event, despite already having a Gengar of my own. And I love my lvl. 66 Gengar! It’s like a demon rising from the bowels of hell just to lay waste to your lineup. As the date for the event got closer and I got really nervous about actually going in to a GameStop and asking for a code because I’m an adult.

    Instead of going in the day of the release like a nerd, I went in the day after just to play it really cool. I didn’t want to seem too excited about this freebie, you know? So I walked in real cool (wore my sunglasses indoors and everything) and go, “So I heard somewhere that I could pick up a shiny Mega Gengar here… or something?” I was armed with a billion excuses/stories to explain why I came in, but the sales clerk just handed me the code and kindly explained how to get the mystery gift. K.

  • So triforce. Much gold. Wow.

    In case you couldn’t already tell by some of my very vague tweets, I took the plunge and got a Nintendo 3DS XL. I originally intended to get a black/black 3DS (breaking my tradition of getting pink Nintendo handhelds), but how can you resist the matte gold/black?!

    I’m still getting used to the controls and the weight (SO HEAVY), but the 3D is DAZZLING. Seriously. I mean… how you doin’ that? I do keep it off the majority of the time to save my eyes and conserve battery, though. And speaking of which, the battery life is a little disappointing considering how magical the DS Lite was in that regard, but not surprising since it comes with so much STUFF. My friends asked me what I did the first night I got it and I really didn’t have an answer for them because all I was doing was playing with the settings, lolz

    So far I’m only playing “Pokemon Y” —X has the cooler Mononoke-esque legendary, but I took one for the team— because no one told me that 3DS games were so expensive, hahah. Thankfully I received a downloadable code for “Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds” as a part of the overall bundle to keep me busy for a while.
