ARK Survival Evolved Theory

     Yesterday, I played ARK with my friends on PC. It's a great game about survival and the best part about it is that you can tame dinosaurs, among other things. When I was playing I noticed some things that led me to create this theory.

     When you are playing you can either be a man or woman, and you can diversify that man or woman to distinguish yourself from other players. But one thing is common among all of the players, they all spawn on the same mysterious island. I think that this mysterious island is actually the Garden of Eden. Why? Because we, in reality, have never found the Garden of Eden, which leads to its being mysterious. And also, dinosaurs have become extinct in reality. In ARK, you live among dinosaurs and other extinct creatures. I think that the dinosaurs in ARK have survived extinction because they are somehow protected by the mysterious island, the Garden of Eden.

     Another thing that has led to my creating this theory. Look at the name of the game: ARK. As in, Noah's Ark. Noah saved the dinosaurs. 

     This is just a theory. It's not fact. But I think that these "references" in the game may be leading to a bigger picture.

My Shiny Pokemon Experience #2

     Time for another Shiny Pokemon Experience! This one is a good one. A great one, really. It took place in Pokemon X just like the last one. It was a while ago, I can't remember exactly when, but I still remember it pretty nicely...

     After a few days of trying to get a shiny Skiddo through PokeRadar, I had decided to just walk around since I gave up. I'm not really good at that kind of stuff, anyway. So I was walking around in the grass in a route which I can't remember, and I come across a wild Pokemon. Not surprising, since I wasn't using Repel. The encounter animation played, and it turned out I came across a Skiddo. But not just any random Skiddo...

Mum, get the camera! (Also, this is just a random photo)

      I instantly recognized it even before the shiny animation played, after all, I had been trying to capture it for the last few days. I forgot which Pokemon I sent out, but it didn't matter. I wasn't going to attack the Skiddo anyway. I threw out one Pokeball after another, again, not remembering how many, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a lot.  I eventually caught it in a plain, ol' Pokeball, my favorite type to catch Pokemon with. 

     I didn't nickname the Skiddo, it was too special for that. I ran around showing my family what I had just done, saying stuff like "How ironic!" and "For me to catch a shiny is even rarer than winning the lotto!" I was so excited when I showed one of my younger brothers, and he was too. This moment was the happiest one I will ever experience (not really). But I was still pretty happy.
