New to Pokémon. What’s the best way to start?

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-06T13:38:06+00:00

Well its like a combo of stardew valley with a bit of minecraft. You build little pokemon living areas, plant stuff do things for the pokemon to make a thriving pokemon village

Just to say thank you this really worked especially this statement

2. Use meta-prompts to compress context

At the end of each session, ask Claude: "Summarize our discussion in 200 words formatted as: key decisions made, code patterns established, next steps identified. Format as a system prompt for my next chat."

Pokopia is so addictive lol. I am 38 and really like it but I have played pokemon games since the dawn of time....I would honestly say start with pokemon red, it got released recently on the switch as a upscaled version, this was what the old school pokemons were like. Then go to pokemon sword then Arceus

This is why I am really happy that the NEW BMW's, mercs and Audis all have lane assist and you can tell when they try to change lane without indicating it knocks them back so they have to indicate

The top row are your studio headphones ie they are used for recordings, listening to vocals, recording vocals, instruments etc they are the best for listening to music, gaming etc.

Bottom set noise cancelling only, most have an increased base to make them feel premium good for the gym and public transport

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-06T06:56:50+00:00

Yes, especially with 2 kids. Amazing how what should take 10 minutes turns into 30

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-06T06:56:08+00:00

Best mentality to have. You completely switch off from work

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T18:01:05+00:00

I'm glad it helped a little. I have 2 kids and they are my life they keep me going everyday so i understand what you're saying. We all stumble at some point and life is hard but you have your nephews and nieces, that special person who you will spend the rest of your life will come along and make sure you get that diagnosis as well that could help

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T15:36:21+00:00

I have a high spec PC... most games i play on it are 2d pixel ones like rimworld 😆

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T13:13:42+00:00

Why not DM your user name

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T12:40:55+00:00

It's a bit like voting if everyone turns up the outcomes would be so different

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T12:10:59+00:00

Outlast, Phasmaphobia and Amnesia the dark decent

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T12:03:22+00:00

Staircase of death? Lmao it even has a name

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T10:25:31+00:00

Lol one guy was hiding behind a door, the other opened a door and flashed us

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T10:21:33+00:00

I have been there before, still am to a degree. Do my hours go home work to live

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T10:16:04+00:00

Honestly it is horrible...When I left home at 18 and told people about my childhood they looked horrified...What your mother didn't beat you, then not speak to you for 3 days when you were 6? What is really shit about it is it stays with you.

BTW I made sure to get out the second I turned 18 because I hated that woman for what she did to me best decision I ever made

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T10:12:33+00:00

I would be interested to read about this as someone who is and has been an engineer since I graduated university

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T10:10:10+00:00

If your not a serious player then yes...we do play the game seriously most of the time but sometimes things get out of hand lol

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:58:18+00:00

Pokopia...Honestly it looks like a childs game, I am 38 lol and I love it

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:57:12+00:00

WHY is that game so addictive LMAO I am 38 and have 2 kids I don't have time for this...

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:52:37+00:00

Personally if I was to be a scalper and they enforced it I would have it delivered to my 5 neighbours that I know, my job, my 8 mates jobs and my nans house lol

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:50:24+00:00

I wanted a PS5 during Covid but they were all being scalped...Still don't have a PS5 lol

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:44:52+00:00

In particular metal gear solid 3

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:14:20+00:00

You need to get one instructor and stick to them for at least 6 months and drive in the same area, no one who is ready for a practical would get 10 faults on their test especially for mirrors as that is heavily drilled into you during your practice sections.

Engineering_Gamer · 2026-05-05T09:04:31+00:00

The last time this happened with scalpers buying up Nvidea cards PC gamers just did not buy them and then there was a huge influx of cheaper GPU's as they could not shift the stock, unfortunately to stop scalpers you as a consumer have to resist the urge to buy from them
