Intro to my new series + 3DS Review
Here is a intro to my new video game series and a review of Nintendo's latest portable gaming system- the 3DS!
My new video game series
Hey Pokemon fans! Welcome to the new Video Shack by Fencer6! I have decided to open up the limits of my blog from just Pokemon to all of Nintendo! In addition to this, I will also be adding coverage of apps and PC games! But don't fret- Pokemon will still be a top priority. And even though this is the video game shack I will still be covering the Pokemon TCG because it is part of Nintendo (and its awesome).
In addition to this blog you can also view be on youtube

Chain Fishing: How to catch shiny Pokemon Method 1
My favorite method for catching shiny Pokemon (and the easiest) is by far chain fishing. The idea is this: you continuously fish again and again and again and eventually you will reach a shiny Pokemon. But first, you need to get the proper "equipment" to do it.
First what you'll what to do is get a fishing rod. My personal favorite is the Super rod, which can be found in the "fishing house" on route 16. The other two are the good rod and the old rod. The old rod is the first you can receive, given to you by a guy in Ambrette Aquarium. Then comes the good rod, given to you by a fisherman in Coumarine City boat yard.. The difference between the rods is that the better the rod, the higher and powerful Pokemon you catch. For example, with a good rod you can catch Dratini in a certain river. But with the ultra rod you can catch a dragonair, bringing you one step closer to that dragonite you've always wanted. I would definitely recommend registering the rod of your choice, too, because otherwise you'll be going in and out of your inventory a lot.
The second thing you'll need is a Pokemon that knows Suction Cups or Sticky hold. I think that suction cups is the easiest to find a Pokemon with. I like to get use Inkays from Route 8 or Azure Bay. But they are rare to find, so as soon as I catch one that doesn't have the ability I find it easier to breed it than search in the grass for hours at a time. Sticky hold is Inkay's second ability, so while it isn't the easiest to come by it's a lot easier to find than its hidden ability. Suction cups makes it to where nearly every time you reel in you get a catch. There is another technique where if you wedge yourself between object on all sides of you except the direction you're fishing (left, right, and behind you) then it is almost guaranteed that you'll get a bite every time! Also, the Pokemon with the ability must be at the the front of your party. But since I like to breed mine, the trouble was it was a level one, so it couldn't run from the battle nor could it fight. But what I like to do is give it a smoke ball, so it can flee from the battle without fail.
Now all you have to do is just fish over and over again. As I mentioned before, you don't have to knock out the Pokemon, you just have to run, which saves a lot of time. But remember that any of the following actions may or will break your chain:
1. Exiting out of Pokemon X/Y
2. Leaving the area
3. Trading/ Battling
4. Catching a wild Pokemon
5. Having an egg hatch
While not all of these have been technically proven, I do believe (through testing and research) that these will break a chain, which will mess the entire thing up. The idea is that the more times you reel in, the higher the chance is of a shiny. Some people say that this is all one big scam, and that it doesn't work, but I can tell you for a fact I don't believe that. Normally, the chances of encountering a shiny Pokemon is about a 1/22,000 chance. And yet with this method me and my friend have managed to catch shinnies after 17 reels, 12 reels, even two reels. If someone says that everyone in the world is just getting extremely lucky when they fish, I would basically laugh in their face.

How to catch a shiny announcment
Hello Pokemon fans! Today I am here to announce the beginning to a new mini series that's all about catching shiny Pokemon! When you beat the game, you kind of start to get bored with it, right? Well, shiny hunting can put some thrill back into your game, and I'll show you how. There are three ways to do this; #1: The masuda method, #2 Pokeradar, and #3 chain fishing, which is knew to X and Y. In each post I will cover how to perform that certain method of catching shinnies.
In case you're a new player, a shiny Pokemon is a Pokemon that is shiny. It has a different color from the other Pokemon. And it's super rare.
So, I hope this will be helpful!

Mega Venasaur revealed!
The moment we've all been waiting for- MEGA POKEMON! Pokemon has officially released Mega Venasaur and Blastiose! Ok, so here's how mega evolution works: You place the Mega card on top of it's not mega EX card (which counts as evolving). So yes, this means that they have released another EX that is basic card but is a stage two Pokemon (you can see that post by clicking here). In short, this means that Venasaur and Blastiose are now basics. You can see the images of these below.
OK, these Pokemon are like no other for sure. To start it off, just look at them. That is pure epicness right there! They look BOSS! They look like something right out of a Japanese monster movie.
As for the HP it is through the roof. These guess are walls! Venasaur has 230, and Blastiose has 220! This makes them the highest hit point Pokemon of all time. It will take for ever to knock these out!
And finally, lets look at their attacks. Crisis Vine is an amazing attack that requires [G][G][G][C], which is a bit of energy, but it deals 120 damage, which is always quite good, but here's the great part- the opposing Pokemon is paralyzed and poisoned! Team this with Virbank city gym could dominate the metagame. In addition, it is a grass type, so it does great against common water types such as Keldeo and Blastiose (both mega and the boundries crossed energy acceleration one). While M (standing for Mega) Venasaur is a awesome, I wouldn't overlook Blastiose yet either. For three Water energy, you can attack for 120 and it does 30 to two of your poppets benched Pokemon. While it isn't as great as M Venasur, it can start attacking one turn sooner than M Venasaur since it only requires three energy, and it still does 120 as well as 30 to two benched pokemon, which is always great to weaken possible foes.
In addition to the rule change (which you can learn more about by clicking here), which made evolutions some back since whoever goes first can't attack, which would result in knocking out the basic before it evolved, there is a new card that will make the evolution process easier:
EVOLUTIONARY SODA!!!
Here's what it says:
Well, that's all I have for today! I can't wait for these new Mega cards to come out so I can give them a try! They certainly aren't like any other cards!
See what I mean? I know, it's crazy. So, now, you would then evolve it by placing the Mega card on top of it. So they would evolve into these:

Prizes
Many people have wondered how many prizes your opponent will take, which may really be a game changer. Many feared that, being more powerful than normal EXs, that they would cost three prize cards. I am happy to announce that that will not be the case! They are just considered normal EXs, and will only be worth two prizes! The only downside to Mega cards is that they have to evolve. But this may be helped by a new card shown below...SODA IN POKEMON!!!
Ever since the release of Black and White introducing high-hitpoint basics, players have avoided using Pokemon that have to evolve because it taked to much time to get out all of the evolutions and such. Well, those days are no longer.In addition to the rule change (which you can learn more about by clicking here), which made evolutions some back since whoever goes first can't attack, which would result in knocking out the basic before it evolved, there is a new card that will make the evolution process easier:
EVOLUTIONARY SODA!!!
Here's what it says:
Evolutionary Soda - Trainer
Item
Item
Choose 1 of your Pokemon that wasn’t put into play this turn. Search your deck for a Pokemon that evolves from that Pokemon and put it on that Pokemon. Shuffle your deck afterwards. You can’t use this card on your first turn.
You can use any number of Item cards during your turn.
This is basically a professor elms training method that doesn't use up your one supporter use. So, you place Venasuar EX on your bench and then next turn play this card, search you deck for M Venasaur, and then evolve. This is great and can greatly speed up evolution. But I know what your thinking, and no, you can't play this on your first turn or the turn you put down that basic. It would be great if it did, but I'm afraid that that isn't the case. But it's still great!Well, that's all I have for today! I can't wait for these new Mega cards to come out so I can give them a try! They certainly aren't like any other cards!

Bye Bye Unova
Hi Pokemoners. I'm sad. I'll just come right out and say it. Do you wanna know why. Because...We're now completely into Kalos. About three weeks ago, Pokemon X and Pokemon Y were released, first bringing us into Kalos and bringing us the transition. Then they switched from Black and White episodes to the beginning of X and Y. And then, legendary treasurers was released, which was the last TCG expansion for Black and White before the X and Y starter expansion. *Sigh*
It really is kind of depressing for me. I started playing the card game in Black and White, then I bought my first Pokemon video game, which was Pokemon black, and then for the first time I watched Pokemon on Cartoon Network. Guess what the series was. Pokemon Black and White. Wanna know what my first cool looking card was? A full-art Reshriam. The first Pokemon I ever caught was a Patrat. The first team of bad guys I defeated? Team Plasma. So, I'm gonna guess you see my point.
Oh well. X and Y is pretty awesome though. But it will never fell the Same as Unova. Bye Unova!

EXPLODING BED! MC unlogical logic
Hello Minecrafters! Any player, from expert to noob, knows that when it gets dark outside, you can crawl into your warm little bed and watch it turn day in a matter of seconds. And they know that they can only get in bed at night, and that it won't let you do that in the day. But one day I was in the nether. I had built an awesome fort, but everytime I died I was sent back to the Overworld, next to my portal. But my fort was far into the nether, so it was never easy to find again. So, finally, I wanted to set my spawn point. I placed my bed, but then I wondered something. If it was never day or night in the neterland, then when or how do you sleep? Well, I layed down in my bed, and what I found was not what I expected...
BOOM!
The bed blew up in a fiery inferno! I took some exploding damage, as always, but I just could't believe what had happened! From this point on I used beds as super-bombs for alternate dimensions. I destroyed half the Nether, clicking on beds left and right! This explosion makes a large hole, even bigger than that of TNT! And it left everything around it on fire, which, in the Nether, lasts for ever on the Netherack. Look out Pigmans! You've got a new worst enemy- a bed!!!
This also works in the End, so I hear, but I have yet to test it myself. I plan to have a demo on what happens, but in the mean time you can try it for yourself and become the King of the Nether! >:)

X and Y cards revealed
Hello Pokemon fans! Today I have exciting news about the Kalos Region in the Pokemon trading card game! You can see the cards below!
For starters are the Kalos starters and their evolutions!
The first is the basics, which you of at the beginning of the game. The cards of the basic starters (Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie) are the exact same as the promos in the boxes that are out now which come with one of the promos you see below and three booster packs from the Black and White series. But I really like the art on the new cards, which look amazing, almost like 3D. (Oh...now I get it. The games are in 3D! Both the cards and the games look wicked!)

Stage one
Personally, I hate stage ones when they later evolve into a Stage two. They seem seem like a deformed version of the final evolution, and a lot of times they're just bigger than their original. But these might barely pass for slightly 1/4 decent. I mean, they aren't great, but they are kind of there own thing.

The Legandaries.
The Kalos legendary Pokemon Xerneas and Yveltal have been revealed in English. I think that they did a amazing job on Yveltal's art and a good job on Xerneas as well. This is the best fairy type EX, and I like the fairy type design.
Mega evolving with Blastiose and Venasaur
Pokemon has also revealed Blastiose EX and Venasaur EX. These cards are *sigh* basic. I still don't like this idea, but I guess it's out of my control. Anyway, the game manic for mega evolving has been revealed that you place the Mega card on top of a EX card, but this automatically ends your turn. The mega cards feature better attacks than the EXs, but as of right now they have not been revealed. I think it would be cool is you has to give Blastoise a Blastoise ite and the use a mega ring to evovole him like the video game does, but I guess the card game isn't that complex. As for Mega Charizard, it has not been revealed to the public. It is possible that he will not be released until the next set in X and Y.
More new Pokemon
The last new Kalos Pokemon to be revealed is Furfrou. As you see below, the two versions of furfrou has the exact same attacks as each other, but one is the generic form and one is in pink groomed form.

Old Pokemon, New cards
In addition to all of the new Pokemon, which I love, we will also be getting plenty of old Pokemon with new cards and attacks. We have Miltank, Snorlax, Bidoof, and Skitty, which are all colorless. But here's the cool part- you know how the original games weren't in 3D right? And that all of these Pokemon are from the older games? Well, all of these old Pokemon aren't in the same kind of 3D look as the new Kalos Pokemon. I find this quite intresting

Pack Design
And finally we have the pack design for the new X and Y. I think this looks amazing! I might be partisan though since these are my two favorite colors, but it's not just that. They make these packs work really well, and it's kind of nice to go into some color after everything was Black and white, which really isn't that interesting to look at. I also really like the computer-generated look. Like Black and white, the colors are the same as the legionaries for the new games. The packs that have been revealed to show, Xerneas and Yveltal, the new legandaries, as well as Blastiose and Venasaur, which are well known for their new Mega Evolutions. But, Charizard has not been revealed on a pack, offering further evidence towards the fact the Charizard will not becoming out until a second set or later.
Well, I hope this was a sufficient amount of information, and I'll be back with more X and Y updates!
Thanks to Pokebeach.com for all the english translations!

The Ditto theory
Hello Pokemon fans! Today I will be talking about the Ditto/Mew Fan theory. This is one of my favorite fan theories because it has reasonable facts from the games, and it kind of makes sense. The idea is that Ditto is a failed clone of Mew, and here's why:
1. For starters, Ditto looks very fan made. I mean, just look at him. How many purple blobs do you know of that can transform into any kind of Pokemon and have such a derby smile that are born in nature? That's what I thought.
2. They are both the color pink, and their shiny forms are both blue.
3. They weigh the exact same (8.8 pounds).
4. They can both (technically) learn any move.
5. They both have the ability transform.
6. They both have even base stats in each category. Mew has 100 in each and Ditto 48 in each, which displays how, being a failed clone, it wasn't as good as Mew itself.
7.Mew was said to have the DNA of every Pokemon, while Ditto can breed with any Pokemon.
8. The most convincing evidence of all is that in Pokemon Yellow, Fire Red, and Leaf Green, the mansion where it is said Mewtwo was created was updated to feature there, which could mean it was created in that mansion as well.
This fan theory, surprisingly, has very few holes. I actually think this is very possible.

Legendary treasures
For the first time...
For the first time, this set will feature EXs that are not legendary since they started reprinting EXs. But these are slightly different than the old EXs. Some of these Pokemon that are the new EXs are stage one and twos such as Excadrill and chandelure ... BUT ARE BASIC EXs!
But... How... GAAA! I just don't see how a stage one or two can be...BASIC!?!?!? This makes absolutely no sense. It defies all Pokemon logic that Pokemon trainers have ever known! I have the photos of the cards and you can see for yourself if this is making no sense to you. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't. I still don't get it.
As strange as the cards are, when you get past the fact they're A BASIC, it's kind of cool. I like a lot of Pokemon's final evolution, but not their other stages so much, so I think it's nice to just put down their other evolved form and start dealing lots of damage, and I hope they do this with other cards.
This set will also be including a new kind of holo foil called the radiant collection. These 25 cards will also have their own numbering and rarity scheme. Personally, I like this idea., mainly because I just don't like the foil cards right now. They have the Pokemons type symbol all over it, and I'm just not a fan. You can see one of those cards below that is supposed to have the new foil coating.
New cards
There are several new cards that have been announced and shown in English.
The first is Ninetales, which you can see below. This, with its color coordination attack, would do great in any deck that had prism or blend energies. I think this is O.K. For a stage one I would expect something a bit for hard hitting and higher HP, but I suppose it will do. You can see it below:
Another new card is Pikachu. This is actually a reprint of a previous Pikachu, but it is one of the cards with the new type of foil, listed above. There isn't much to say about this card, since it's only printed for people to collect and look at since it doesn't have any good attacks, but it does have a new type of foil and a nice picture.look pretty epic. You can see it below (trust me, you'll agree it looks amazing):
Another card that will be brought back in Legendary treasurers is Spirtitomb. This cards stops the use of Ace Specs for both players, which i don't find that great since players can only play one ace spec in their deck, and you might also need to use one too. But the attack is a slight upside. It allows you to, for one colorless energy, to shuffle your hand into your deck and draw the same number of cards as your opponent, which is O.K., but not that great. At least this can be played in any deck. You can see it below:
And last but not least is Meloetta EX. I think this card looks amazing, but is the worst EX
in existence. It does 30 damage for three energy, plus 30 more for each Pokemon that has round, which isn't very good at all since it isn't easy to get the same Pokemon on your bench many times. The other attack does 20 damage for 2 colorless and also puts them to sleep or confused, which is neat since it puts your opponent to sleep or confuses and all, but it does barley any damage and probably won't give you the K.O. you need to when the game. On top of all that, it has a mere 110 Hp, which is extremely low for an EX. In short, I will not be adding this card to my deck.
Well, those are the new cards! We will see several reprints as well, such as Keldeo Ex, Mewtwo Ex, and Darkrai Ex. I can't wait!
