Wedding Tasting Vlog

The would have worked better for Wedding Wednesday, but I just had to talk about that Pokémon Direct!  In truth, last weekend was a bit all over the place– we definitely ate a lot, and we got some really cool adventures in as well!

See for yourself:

Pokémon Direct

Weekend vlog is getting pushed because yesterday’s Pokémon Direct literally blew my mind.  So, we need to talk about this.

Here’s the Pokémon Direct, for those of you who missed it (or want to see it again!):

Pokken Tournament DX

I loved Pokken Tournament before it came out, being a huge fan of Tekken and pokémon.  When the game came out, I got to play competitively a little bit… something I never dreamed of doing.  Although I wasn’t so great, I loved it.  I really miss playing it, too.  I was absolutely elated to hear that the deluxe version of the game is coming to Nintendo Switch!  I’ve been dying to play with some new characters, and I can’t wait to get back into this game!

Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon

People were hoping for “Pokémon Stars” but I didn’t expect that at all.  Think back to our recent generations: we’ve had no Gray, no Z, so why would we have Stars?  Instead, we’re got Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon!  A new story in Alola sounds better than a souped-up remake to me.  My personal countdown is already on until I can get my hands on these games, so like please be warned that I am busy the weekend of November 17th.  I’m happy these titles are coming to 3DS, simply because I don’t want to have to buy a second Switch!  (Matt & I share… but not when it comes to Pokémon.)

The other little bit of news is that Gold & Silver are coming to the virtual console!  They will be compatible with Pokémon Bank, which should really help us fill up the Pokédex!

Who’s as excited as I am?!

May ‘Grams

What a month it’s been!  This post is a little late because I took too much vlog footage last weekend… and I think I should have a lot for this weekend too, but you’ll have to stay tuned to see.

For now, let’s talk about May:

Nintendo, Rick Mobile, & Bridal Squad

If you liked yesterday’s post, you’re in luck!  You can watch us shop the Nintendo x Uniqlo collection in real life!  Also, we see the Rick Mobile (from Rick & Morty) and I get my bridal squad together for something exciting…

Uniqlo x Nintendo

I’m having trouble finding the words for how perfect these Nintendo tees for Uniqlo are.  I mean, one of my favorite stores plus my absolute favorite game company… could anything be more made for me?

I have to give the credit to my fiancé for alerting me to this one.  Between the two of us, we could’ve easily bought this whole collection.  Here are my favorites!

Top Row: Pikachu Print (women); Boo print (women); Donkey Kong print (men), Animal Crossing print (kids)

Middle Row: Pikachu (men), Kirby (kids), Donkey Kong (men), Mario & Luigi pipe pocket (men)

Bottom Row: Super Mario Star (men), Pokéballs (kids), Legend of Zelda (men & women), There’s One Left Pikachu (men)

All the best tees are really the kids one, but I can try my luck at fitting in men, women, and kids!  To see them all, check out the Uniqlo site.  To see what we picked out, check out the vlog coming up tomorrow!

Which are your favorites?!
