Thought I’d post about this again (assuming I haven’t posted about it before). Here are my Pokémon Black 2 Hall of Fame records. The first one and the latest one—over 10 years apart! (Yes, it’s the exact same save file.)

Insane, right?

My Anbernic RG34XXSP arrived yesterday. Here are some pictures for you guys and gals!

It's a retro-gaming/emulation handheld that looks almost exactly like the GBA SP.

I also wanted to have a dedicated media playback device with the ability to store my entire MP3 collection locally.

Here are my most-played Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, Wii U (haha, yes), and Nintendo 3DS games (2014 - Present). (No official data for my Nintendo DS hours is available, unfortunately.)

As expected, Pokémon, Smash Bros., Mario, and Ace Attorney dominate.

I was invited as the Guest of Honour by the Aditya Institute of Management for their celebration of Librarian's Day 2025. The event was held on August 12, and I gave a small speech on my writing process. I am extremely grateful to the Director of the Institute, Dr. Balkrishna Parab.

I played my very first Magic: The Gathering game yesterday. I played in the Commander format, and I used a pre-constructed Doctor Who deck.

Also check out my Batgirl-themed card sleeves. 😎

Pokémon and LEGO are collaborating. The first sets will arrive in 2026.

It's all I've ever wanted! 😭

You have no idea what I'm about to show you guys and gals.

Got these secondhand Nintendo DS games which are no longer officially available at CeX. These games are super popular with Ace Attorney fans, I hear.

Also an Ezra Bridger (Star Wars Rebels) Disney Infinity figurine. 🤩

Just learned Pokémon Legends: Z-A is being directed by neither Shigeru Ohmori (Pokémon ORAS, Pokémon SM, Pokémon SwSh and Pokémon SV) nor Kazumsa Iwao (Pokémon USUM, Pokémon Legends: Arceus).

It's being directed by Tochigi Haruka. I think it's the first time he's directing a Pokémon game?

Oh, today is Pi Day! Also the day Albert Einstein was born. Incidentally, it's also the day Stephen Hawking sadly passed away.

The next season of the Pokémon anime series has been announced. It's called Pokémon: Mega Voltage (in Japan), and it'll begin airing with a one-hour special on April 11th. It'll feature Liko, Roy and Dot as teens. It'll also have a new character named Ult with a Mega Sableye. 👀

My nephew's electronic toy just played an 8-bit version of one of the tracks from Laputa: Castle in the Sky's soundtrack. I nearly jumped.

The same nephew whose play-gym had a rendition of Ievan Polkka, a traditional Finnish song.

I have no words to describe what I'm feeling right now. 😅

February 28 is officially observed as National Science Day in India. On this day, in 1930, Indian physicist C. V. Raman was awarded the Nobel Prize for the discovery of the phenomenon now named after him, Raman Scattering. Wishing all STEM professionals a very happy National Science Day! ⚛️

The big day is finally here! Happy Pokémon Day, everyone! 😄

A few months ago, I wrote a poem, entitled 'From Almighty Sinnoh to Area Zero', to celebrate the Pokémon franchise — all 9 Generations of it: youtu.be/c9Hv0nS58TE?...

By the way, I don't believe I've shown you folks the Pokémon poem I wrote last year, celebrating the first 9 Generations of the Pokémon franchise?

I'm gonna share it (in video form) on Thursday, February 27 (Pokémon Day). Please look forward to it.
