We are raised as an orphan by distant family members who are toxic, who are more protective of the family name, in terms of they abuse you, like I don't want to say maybe it is too much for the ones watching, but you know something like rape, nini, and they don't acknowledge, they don't even think that maybe after you grow up you realize what happened and then maybe they might want to sit down with you and apologize and maybe make some amends. So you realize that you have to let go of some people, you have to close some chapters, you have to stop watering grass that may never grow. Only my sister who we were separated with for 11 years, that's the only person I talk to, I don't talk to any other person, but we have another family now the side of my mom, I don't know how to explain it, but it's a distant, it's a very different kind of a family that I talk to, but not people who know me from my tender age, but I only talk to my sister and her children, they are the only family members I recognize.  And then later on you realize this person saw something in you that they can benefit from and once they benefit ends they live. That marriage for it to have that effect on social media, it has to have a lot of work in the background, that is what we don't see and that's why I don't have any couple goals or any couple that I look up to.  So I don't have any money to buy a bill.  What's your name? Raha. Welcome back, this is HPM bars and we are here at the Mara Music Awards. My name is Selva Kido, I'm being joined by a content creator, an amazing lady doing very well. Balik on your socials, 80s on Juri on YouTube of course. Making moves, money moves in Nairobi, how are you? Thank you. Thank you, thank you. Atakama mimi niko kwa eventia wajaluu na mimi mikiukuyu. But I fit everywhere, that's the thing with me. And I'm happy to be here. My name is Lydia Wanjuru, I'm a content creator on YouTube, a business woman. And I speak, I make content around wellness of women in relationships, family and friendships. Why decided to choose that angle? So I decided to create content about women wellness in friendships, relationships and family. After being under so many toxic relationships, I myself have gone under very rough background growing up as an orphan and being brought by very toxic and narcissistic family. So the time I realized, oh this happened to me, bad things, you know, to turn to trauma as a zingine. And then having healed and understood what happened, I understood, I realized, oh so many women or even men have undergone this. And maybe by speaking about it, it may encourage someone who is still going through it. Maybe a toxic relationship, having a toxic relationship with their friends, with their family. It may encourage you that, you know, not all hope is lost. That's how I began and ran with it. Okay, you being raised as an orphan, how was it, how was the journey you were coming this, turning things around to favor you? Be raised as an orphan by distant family members who are toxic, who are more protective of the family name, in terms of they abuse you. I don't want to say maybe it is too much for the ones watching, but you know something like rape, nini, and they don't acknowledge, they don't even think that maybe after you grow up you realize what happened and then maybe they might want to sit down with you and apologize. And maybe make some amends. So you realize that you have to let go of some people, you have to close some chapters, you have to stop watering grass that may never grow. And you know just pick up the pieces that are left and move and that's what I did because I'm not in contact with any of my family member because even after that you hope that the cousins you grew up with, the children, the cousins that you were young with them and they witness all these things happening to you that eventually they realize, oh this was so wrong, this happened to you that is bad nini, they try to make amends.  So you decided to open up about this right now, what was holding you back from talking about this from before? Number one shame because why would you talk so bad about people who gave you shelter, gave you food, took you to school, why would I want to do that? That's why I was quiet. Number two, I've grown up being told keep quiet. You're not enough, you don't know what you're doing, you don't know what you're saying, nothing good will come out of you. You are the helper of the family, someone has given birth, go and take care of so and so, be there made. You are the helpers of even other older family members.   I don't want to be a slave anymore so I came out. How was your healing Johnny? Oh hectic. For the longest time my classmates and my friends and my colleagues before I started speaking about my story, they thought I came from a rich family because the family that brought me up is very rich, is amongst the richest families in Nakuru.  But it also just doesn't help the situation but you know starting to speak about it because again people would not understand like I where you never liked anything, you had the family, you had the money, you were being brought to school with cars, nini nini, but they don't understand. But when I decided it's enough, I want to tell my story, I want to share so that those who are in the same situations to relate to me, I never felt any shame. I cried sometimes it's not even easy, even up to now it's not easy to talk about such things especially some tell you when you're 18 years, whether you see often anymore it's like maybe your parents they rose, they came back from their dead. But I'm still an orphan even in 80 years I'm still an orphan and I'm not going to stop, it's ugly sometimes, it's beautiful at times, at times it's peaceful, at times you break down, especially when people share their stories with me. You're like kawond kind of pills kidogo and you're like I know this but again you have to keep going, you can't give up. How is your connection with the other family? Are you guys instilling talks? Do you have someone you trust you can talk to? Only my sister who we were separated with for 11 years, that's the only person I talked to, I don't talk to any other person but we have another family now the side of my mum. I don't know how to explain it but it's a distant, it's a very different kind of a family that I talk to but not people who know me from my tender age but I only talk to my sister and her children they are the only family members I recognize. Anyone else? No. How's the relationship with the sister? Oh amazing she's my big sister because I'm the last born in a family of three, our first born who is my brother, we kind of got separated in 2006 so from then I've never seen him. Even my sister was separated in 2006 until we reunited in 2017 so when we reunited we kinda had a rough patch for like three years because now you're adults, you don't know each other, you don't know what you like, I don't know what you like, I don't know what I can say to upset you. We kinda went through a rough patch for like three years and then things just started falling into place and right now she's my best friend, she's my big sister, she's my mum. When I go there she allows me to lay on her lap, she chokoras my ears, she just looks, no, I don't know how to explain it, she's my best friend, she's my confidant. There's nothing I wouldn't share with her, I've shared with her everything. I just call her and she tells me what do you feel, what do you wanna do, do you think that's the best decision and one thing about my sister she'll never decide for me.  Talking about toxic relationship, Nairobi, Kanaero, Dating, Blanda, we saw the other day a musician major ex-wife posting something that is brought some very controversial story online. Why did you decide it, what is the moral, what is the story behind you talking about toxic relationship, is this something that made you, maybe you went through something?  And then later on you realize this person saw something in you that they can benefit from and once they benefit ends they live. So you are left there like what did I not do right or what did I not do or what did I do to upset him or her. And then now it takes you then steps back again now you need to heal, you need to have trust issues, you need to doubt. It's too much baggage because number one relationships nowadays they involve money and nyash. If you don't have money you can't get it, if you don't have nyash they can't get it. It's just hard, it's hard and we want to go back to the values of love, relationships, marriages, friendships, family and that's why I do what I do. What has really changed, is it our girls are greedy, is it our boys are greedy for money and fame maybe?  As long as you can benefit from something you take advantage on someone without even having a second thought. Oh maybe I might hurt them, maybe I might make them have trust issues, depression, mental health, suicide, people killing each other. That's why we are saying infamicide. What has changed is that people want things for themselves without thinking what the other person is losing. Women want money, men also want money, we have bente nowadays, it's a thing and also men want women that in a particular way that's why our girls are struggling to lose weight, to go for surgeries, to bleach because we want to fit a standard that we think is what will get you that man, but in the end it won't. So it's money, it's nyash, it's moral, it's mental health, it's a lot Kido, it's a lot. There's a lot to talk about that. Now when you're dating someone there's those things that people call red flags. People assume at times someone will change, oh let's wait and see, take me through about the red flags, how to overcome, when to tell it's the right time for me to move. I want to exit this toxic relationship, am I doing the right move, will it cost me, why fear to leave the relationship? Most of the times we ignore red flags in people hoping that they will change, that your presence, your love, your caringness, it will help them. She's been there for me through thinking things, she's been giving me money, she's been forgiving me when I cheat. I'm not just saying it like biasly, I'm just talking from a point of experience. We hope that someone will change if we give our best to them. Sometimes even our best means doing the extreme, like taking loans, we see people taking loans for their boyfriends or their girlfriends. We see people abandoning their friendships, abandoning their family, hoping that this is your person, they will see all the sacrifices you have made. And finally they say, you know what, okay fine, I'll act my best. But now that will drain you, you having to go extra mile to prove that you're worth it to someone, it only drains you and it doesn't work out. The more you ignore, the more you bank into the red flags, you know, bugs, and the more you are like, have you ever been in a relationship where like, but this is, I saw this the first week we started dating. And then it's years later, three years later, four years later, five years later, it's the time you're thinking like, no, this is just who he is.  He just, you know, sometimes slaps me here and there, he abuses me, he abandons me, he calls me, he comes back. And then those are the same reasons that make you end the relationship eventually. So I'll tell anyone whether a man or a lady, you see those things that you spot when you're beginning the relationship. If someone is supposed to be who you think they're supposed to, they're supposed to be ready for you. This for someone you're saying, oh, let me give them time. There's someone who is already ready to marry you or to be in a serious relationship with you. But because we allow our bodies, our imaginations, our fantasies, our couple goals to lead us, sometimes we just want to create things for ourselves, but they're not godly ordained. So you lose out on what is godly ordained because this is what you are guarded and led by things you see online, things you see people say, you know, who so and so about who are an iPhone, so and so about who are careful on their birthday, then you end up missing the whole point of coming together and building a relationship and being together and supporting each other without being drained. Red flags are there. Don't want to, me, myself, I said, I'll never want someone to change. You see, kiddo, I found you, you work late nights, you go to events, sometimes abruptly you tell me, I'm not in Nairobi, I've traveled for work. That is who you are. I just can't come into a life and just say, no, you have to be in the house Monday to Friday and maybe go out on Saturday and Sunday, but I found you going out.  So don't ignore red flags, don't even want someone to change. Umekutam tu akweivi, you try and measure out if this is the person that you want, if there are weaknesses or things that you deserve, umelia, things that you can put up with. If you can't, wey on doka, kuna mwingini ako ready, one thing I've come to agree to confirm, there is always someone ready waiting for you with all the beautiful qualities you are looking for. You just have to be patient. There is, there is.   Umekutam mutu weni ako, you figure out, itom kubali, amo wachanena e. It's either of umelies or weakness, they are not much of a bother to you, or you just leave them alone and go to someone else who is ready. Ubi alone. Ubi alone. You are born alone, mama kwa lukusa pekei ako, the default setting of a human being is being alone, single. Uli zalua pekei ako, ukapewa jinai ako, webe pekei ako, but certificate, kwaenda shuloka admitua na admission nambia kwa pekei ako. So what is the big deal, na akutaka kukua na desperate, kukua na mutu weni wa adult? Talking about relationship, why is it hard for people just to find a perfect match, a perfect one in Nairobi? Why is it hard to date in Nairobi? Number one, uchumi a ruto. Sorry. People have become greedy, uchumi nimbaya. People have defined love in a way that our mothers didn't use to define it. Civilization, technology, digitalization. So we want things that are beneficial. We are selfish, we have become too selfish. But we have become too selfish. You want to meet someone at maybe 25 years, 30 years, unataka kwa kwa na gari, unataka kwa na biashara, unataka kwa kwa na numba, unataka kwa pia gafrenda allowances, unataka kwa na the latest iPhone in the town, unataka kwa pela kwa dea ni maybe once per three months, usha jipeleka? Usha jiba iya iPhone? Usha ii pandandege? Uememu na niwa kwa niwa unafanya kazi. Mushihara kwa niwa kwa kumode tuwe na mutumengine. So why are we putting expectations on other people when you yourself haven't achieved? Uengine niwa tuwa na mababa zitu aja inu nua gari, aja inu nua shamba. Kasi muka niya menshukutu miya 5 years, meka funga na blada. Kama baba kwa aja achievis of ituzote? Why are you expecting someone else to have been that? Yes, we have men who are millionaires. We have to have a zungu na tuwa. And also the one thing again that is making her to find love in Nairobi, people are comparing relationships. Bufrenda Beshtiangu alimpeleka dubai haa bati de. Bufrenda Beshtiangu alimunu nua shamba. So you meet a man, you have these conditions because now you want to compete with your best friend. You know you want to compete with your best friend. Then the whole meaning of the relationship muntut alu kwa na kuja na intentions, kwa kwa ko. Kwaneni meza mu toto. It's expectations, it's selfishness, it's money, it's nyash, it's a lot. It's greedy. Selfishness is greedy.  Because may believe in anything, in friendship, relationship, family. You have to give to receive. A hand that is open to give is a hand that is open to receive. We give and glow. Just to ask you about the perfect couples in 254. Celebrities post each other, they're living public life, they're telling us, showing us, to our time and everything. Are they really living a good life? Are they faking it? Is their marriage working? Are they perfect? It's a good thing, marriage works. And people post what we want to see. People will post all their winnings, they'll post all their beautiful pictures, they will give us good quotes, good captions. But that marriage, for it to have that effect on social media, it has to have a lot of work in the background. That is what we don't see. And that's why I don't have any couple goals or any couple that I look up to. And because I've been there with a boyfriend, unumshop, kumabeshtezako, unendahout, analipa bill. Sayo, umemu ya kia doko empesa, alipa yo bill. So everyone will be like, hey, boyfriend ya lidia. Boyfriend ya lidia. Boyfriend ya lidia sayo, umemu suti goi ake, anaku post ko social media na kakabshon kazuri. I'm not saying it is what is happening to all couples, I'm just saying, there's a lot of background work and people there, they would come out honestly and speak about it, you'd be like, ooh, that's a lot of work. That's a lot of work. There's a lot of forgiveness, a lot of patience, a lot of letting go, a lot of therapy, a lot of crying, a lot of laughter. We don't see it. We only see the happy, gifting moments, but we don't see the work that goes into that relationship. You don't see the eh, where they began. Where we fraya, where we reply, but don't put other people's relationships in your mind because the same way you put that relationship in your mind is the same way you meet someone and start giving them the pressure. Remember some of these, our social media couples, they have been together for years when they were poor. We hear some stories, we have so many stories, the way they suffered, they didn't have money nini nini. Are you willing to go through that for you to be able to be gifted that Range Rover? We are not. We want to have a low relationship with Range Rover. It can't work like that. So that's what I'm saying, there is no couple goals, you have to be patient.  What am I looking for in a partner? Which does not have monetary value because money again is the root of all evil, it is destroying our relationships. Who is the type of a man? My type of a man, respectful to themself first, respectful to noble people like the watchman, the waiters. That is how I understand that you love people despite who they are.   I cannot date a jobless man. I can date a broke man. I cannot date a jobless man. What is the difference between a jobless man and a broke man?   So, you're a broke man. The jobless man is a man that does not have any form of income. He has been paid a month and he has been paid a lot and he has been paid a lot. He has been paid a lot. And he has been paid a lot. He has been paid a lot. We can put some, you know, foundation to do it. Okay, we are working with 100K, we are working with 10K. I may have 10K, what can we do? Even if we are in a panga, but jobless. 30 years on jobless. So 30 years I have been working. I have been working outside the house. Look at it, look at it. I have seen it online. A pastor was preaching and mentioning that men should go for single moms. Because they have, they know how to love.  They can balance with you with life and they can support you. Is it okay, is it the right time for now, single men to go for the single moms?  This single mom, kikana bebedadi, ndotadjuvenyomonom canimbaya, kulingana na bebedadi. But now I know what men are doing. They are going for single moms knowing that these women have to work very hard to earn a living. And now they have their money somehow in order. So this lady, because she's number one, she was at broken, she's looking for true love. So you come in form of, I have true love to offer to you.  So again this single mom is looking for a husband figure for their child. So these men are coming in form of, you can be a dad, I can offer you true love. But I don't want to be single moms. But others are genuine. Now when can I pay the files? Muntutu na kujama puna mulenta kwa kwa that's why I tell women, be careful when dating a man and you have a child that is not his. Ujumutu true intentions is a keninga. Puskusu wa tunuwa gondjoa. That's why there is famiside in the world or in Kenya. What tunuwa gondjoa? There is raping. There is child abuse. Ujumutu kenyami. Ujumutu true intentions. Kama utu ko liya na kupenda. Distance your, as a single mom, distance your relationships with your family. Nyumbaya kwa niya kwa na mtoto wako. Relationship, work on it outside there. Sazin yung kabisa, your heart is clear, your mind is clear about this person. Now introduce them to your child. Next, this month, omondia mekujo mekudet.

It means, kwa we wetu ni mutu hivi hivi. And then you will meet umpia mwa namukia hiya kwa willing, kwa sabu beshara ni mingi and we don't judge, ya na takat do. Wengini ni wezi, because I think mchi hele babes are thieves. Because kama umi agributu, umutu na kupia 1,000 wende na hiya hiya hiya. Kama niki dogutu mambia apana bosmi 1,000 siwezi.

What do you think should be done to those women? Wime namba wane kia atu mchi hele? Nothing. Nothing. What if we say something should be done to the men that are entertaining these women or taking on the advances to a point that baka wame chiangani kwa waka hiya hiya kwa mchi hele. If we are doing something to the women, let's do something to the men. We must decay the society. Yes, because why are we blaming someone who is entertaining? Kido, if you have gone, I have said again, if you got somewhere and you are there with a different agenda, why are you diversifying? We must do anything to the men. Baby weался, we sinful both. I can't say anything to can you imagine that if you do that they may come out of their hands and say they come out from Kumae servi So it's business, sometimes you win, maybe even most of the times you win, but kuna time to lose, na kiluz you do what, unanda home unalia, una omba mungu, keshuna muka unanda lana bia shara.

with a huge breakfast and thankfully nothing yet. What'd you have for breakfast? Your mom. It's a little bit of a little too acidity for the morning. Well, especially after oral surgery. And it wasn't really surgery. I just had an abscess lanced. Juice! Hey, welcome back to our distributor, Axis McCormick. I'm Rick. You can follow us on Instagram, and Twitter for more juicy content. Oh, I had some juicy content. Everybody supports us on Patreon, follow us through the Twitter account. Subscribe if you haven't hit the like button. Yeah, do it. Yeah, take care of your teeth. Even if you don't have the insurance to do it, you should get a cleaning so you don't run into the problem I had. I went way too long without a cleaning and I've always had tartar and plaque buildup. And for breakfast this morning, I had two eggs, two pieces of toast, and a protein shake. Congratulations. Thank you. I had to force myself because I typically don't eat when I first wake up. But new habit, new things. How you doing? I eat breakfast.  Pretty. Yeah, pretty quick? Pretty quick. I'm usually pretty hungry in the morning. Yeah. I know I will be if I condition myself to do it. Yeah. I've just, I've gone so long not being hungry for two hours after I've woken up. So I just eat some, ah. Ah. Today we have a fight, fight, fight. Ah. And this is from a Sarapathy Vijay movie called, I hope no one gets hit in the mouth because they're gonna have to go to the dentist, then they might be prescribed a Moxicillin. They could have an allergic reaction to it or at least have horrible side effects and then we're all gonna be. Tupac. E. Tupaki. Tupaki, sounds like a bad word.  Oh, just get your adrenaline running. Boy, what a, that's a, that's a, that's click bait. Anyways, so here we dance. Okay, it's got a dog issue in it. So we're going John Wick here. Don't hurt my dog. I hope so. By the way, you know what I found out about my wife? That was an utter total surprise to me. What? We're watching TV. The trailer for Fast and Furious 10 comes on. And she's freaking, she's freaking out. I looked at her. She said, you haven't, don't you see Fast and Furious? I said, I've known you for almost five years now. We've been married for almost two. You don't like action films. She said, oh, but I grew up watching Fast and Furious. I said, so you want to go see that? She said, absolutely.  She's a huge Fast and Furious fan. A lot of people are, man. Yeah. That's why they've made a billion of them. She wants me to see all of them so that we can be prepped to go see the new one releasing this weekend. Have fun. Thanks. Here we go. Here's a dog. Don't do anything to that dog. Don't hurt the dog. No, he said, you. Oh. Oh yeah. Did the dog shoot him? I hope so. Oh no, it's VJ. That's what happened in the theater right now. Smoking. They shoot like stormtroopers. Great sound design. If you break an arm or a leg, the sound on this is so, so delightful. Wow, the Foley work is really, really. All the sound is great, the Foley work was not. That's the end of the actual fight scene. That leg break was one of the most gruesome, wonderful breaks of any appendage we've ever seen in a fight scene. Put it up on the table and then just. Oh, that was one of the best fight scenes we've seen. In a while. Yeah. I liked it. Great sound design on all of the punching, the breaking, the shooting, not so good on the Foley work on the footsteps, but yeah, that was a lot of fun. Great fight choreography too. It's anytime there's like a bone break, something about a bone break. I know. Way worse than a stabbing or shooting to the head. Even though you like those, they die in that other situation. It just sounds so much more long-term awful. You know, if you got, well, yeah. Well, am I done still? They could still, but so if you get stabbed in the arm, ow, that sucks, I'm bleeding stitches. Okay. Somebody just shatters your knee or your femur. Oh, that's, you're not gonna be right for eight to 12 months minimum. And that's if you have health insurance. That's right, that's true. And if you're not allergic to a moxicillic. That's true. Yeah, that was good. That was really good fight scene. I can imagine the, I don't know when this came out, but I assume it was more recent. Yeah, it looks recent. Six years. Yeah, he was definitely a big star by then. Is it Jawaan, isn't it? Zakir Hussain? That's, we've made that before. Yeah, we've done that before. It's not the eight. I didn't see Vidyut in there. Did you? He wasn't in this. Okay. But it looks like, music is by Harrison, this film though. Ah. We've seen songs from this, I know that. But I didn't know Vidyut is in this film because I'm guessing he just went to, because this will be the Tamil industry with Vijay. Right. So I guess Vidyut. Is it? Yeah. No, he's primarily. Primarily, yeah. But I don't, from to my knowledge, I don't know if he's in the Telugu film. Okay. I know he's a Tamil actor. I know he's predominantly a Tamil guy. But it's just so common. Yeah, it is. But yeah, he's a pretty big Tamil star. It's just like Shah Rakan doesn't do too many Tamil or Telugu or anything. Pretty much predominantly Hindi. Pretty sure it's similar, but obviously they'll dub it. Yeah. In both languages, but yeah, that was really good. Yeah, it was fun. Grewsome. Grewsome. I can imagine the theater go nuts though, because that entire thing was hyped and so the theater the entire time would just be like throwing stuff, screaming. Yeah.  That was a good fight scene. And cool to see. Very satisfying. Anyways, let us know about the film. This is one that's worth a watch. And if not, what should be our next fight scene from Vijay or others that we can react to? Let us know down below. Josh!


So, this is how the Trump administration begins our new year, with threats of war and more trips deployed to the Middle East. In a reckless move, Trump ordered an airstrike outside Baghdad's airport that killed the head of Iran's elite Quds Force, General Qasem Soleimani. This disproportionate escalation of tensions with Iran is a dangerous step towards war and was made without the approval of Congress and in violation of an agreement with the government of Iraq to refrain from carrying out such actions. General Qasem Soleimani was a prominent figure in Iran and extremely popular. He was considered by many a hero, not only in the country, but in the region, due to his role in helping to defeat ISIS. Iran's supreme leader, as well as the foreign minister, have warned about a severe retaliation and the consequences of U.S. actions. Donald Trump is responsible for all this crisis. Even though he came into office from his normal wars, he instead used aggressive rhetoric towards Iran, abandoned the nuclear deal with that nation and now has assassinated one of the most powerful leaders, putting us in the brink of a massive, costly, unnecessarily and totally avoidable war. It's time we exercise people power, join our global movement for peace to stop the Trump administration's march towards a war with Iran. So we can bring our troops home from the Middle East and make peace with Iran. We must stop this madness.


Hello friends and we're back with another showdown special to finish up the week as we started off the week with this Rayquaza and Zonius team, we're gonna finish it up this week, my name is Lee also known as Osiris and I haven't changed anything up on the team but as always the team is down in the description below, there is a roll-piss of the team if you guys want to try it out. We've been tweaking around all week, we started off with the scissor in the Gasturon slot and then changed over to this little slug and it seems to be doing alright so hopefully we can get some nice results today and show the team doing some work and maybe if not have a look at where areas that we can improve the team going forward. I did try and record this episode just before but unfortunately there was a lot of drilling still going on so I had to scrap that one wait a little while and then come back to it now so hopefully it doesn't take too long to find our first opponent even if it does it gives me a chance to chat to you guys so I hope you're all doing well and as always if you do enjoy this sort of content please remember to drop a like on the video. So we've got our first opponent of the episode, we've got a Kyogre and a Veltel call, this is something that I do feel like it will pick up quite a bit of popularity early Ultra series with all of the Ultron across my going around the Kyogre growed on and the lack of Xerneus I feel like Veltel kind of thrives in that sort of format so this call that we're facing right now is something that I do feel like will potentially make a bit of a splash in the format going forward. Right it's going to be a bit tricky for us of course because the Gengar, Mega Gengar the team puts on a lot of pressure especially when it's paired alongside the Kyogre. I'm going to lead off with Incinero and I think it's difficult leading with Tabacoco in this situation, I do want to bring it. Now the Togonomaru makes it difficult bringing it anyway in the best of times but I think just for the Celestila we're probably going to see it. I'm going to bring Requizer, Gastron's going to be decent here and then I think Tabacoco Xerneus is not really doing too much in this match other than the Veltel which we can deal with Tabacoco anyway once we get rid of potentially the Togonomaru. So we are going to see my opponent lead out with the Togonomaru and the Veltel. I think maybe you turn into Veltel and then we'll go for a hard switch from Requizer into Gastron because I feel like if you're Togonomaru you either fake out or you go for a nuzzle into Re to really shut it down. Well I would say this old vest Veltel would be my best guess but you never know it could be Xerneus as well. Xerneus is very effective in this sort of team and then you look around the other members of the team and you think well where else would the Xerneus be? Could be on Togonomaru but it's more likely to be on the Veltel here.  I'm going to go for that U-turn again and I think because I expect the Z move here it might be worth going into Tabacoco here. We could protect with Gastron but it's nice to have Gastron on the back as a switch in for when Kyogre does hit the field. And Kyogre should be able to sap up the Z move pretty well. But I think Kyogre actually hit the field right now. This isn't the worst. We'll see the Togonomaru. It is going to go for a nuzzle into Incineroar. It doesn't look like we're going to have the inclusion of Mega Gengar in this team. So where do we want to go? We want to maybe go into Rayquaza because once Mega rolled we can get rid of the rain. We can do some nice damage to the Kyogre as well. And I think to be honest we can probably pick up a knock out there and potentially get Gastron on back in. It might be better to go for an earthquake honestly but we'll see. This is super fine and I don't know what it's about. Ray should take that. That's nice. Not really. I think you'd probably go for that together at the Tabacoco more than anything else. Velto likes you to come back in now. I would say. And we probably want to plus one special attack as well. So that's quite nice. We'll bring in Incineroar and just protect Gastron. I think one of the things that I'm still a bit wary of is to see Velto pulling the trigger on a potential Z move here. We're going to see actually Salastilla hit the field as you do get our Incineroar.  It is going to pivot into the U-Velto. But we do have the opportunity now to go for a fake out into U-Velto and Ice Beam as well just to get around that. Indicating maybe that it is a solid vest but potentially not as well. I think now we'll go for a flablet into the Velto. Still wary about the potential Z move there. Just want to protect Gastron on. I think Gastron is a little bit of a key for us in this match. Especially once the Velto goes down it gives us a nice way to deal with the Togonomaru as we do see. The Velto will go for an Oblivion Wing into the Protector and the Leech Seed come up from the Salastilla. Now we need to preserve Incineroar for sure here. I'm going to switch into Requires. We'll probably see a device switch actually. We could get a free flablet. The Togonomaru can only fake out one target here. As long as we take down the Togonomaru, Tapper Cork can deal with that Salastilla pretty handily. I think that's one thing we have to watch out for here. We're going to see Super Fine Leech Seed there. Perth Power is going to be more than enough and then the flablets into that Salastilla nearly chunking it down. It is going to snap back with the Leech Seed Recover there. One of the things we can do is switch to Cork or Cork for an Ice Beam. I'd imagine the Salastilla to protect it. Try and get a little bit of damage recovered here. This next turn from the Double Leech Seed, that would be my best bet I think. We're not going to see that just every slam is going for it. So we get the Ice Beam and now it's game over, isn't it? It's game over, I see. The Salastilla are going to take a nice chunky Thunderbolt in the terrain and that should be Gigi, premature Gigi. Oh, it's going to protect her. Deliver more health back. It's not really going to help it though in this situation. Unfortunately, the Gastrodon can go down. We've still got Ray in the back to come in, but not getting that next. Protect off. So there we go and we'll come back to the main menu and we'll hop straight into our next game. And hopefully, like I say, every time it doesn't take too long to find our next opponent. But I'm really excited for the Ultra Circuit to start up again. I was kind of hoping that we would get maybe a variation on the ruleset going into the first portion of this next season. But it looks as though it is going to be the Ultra Rules, which makes a lot of sense. It's less work for Pokemon Company International. And, you know, they're going to have a lot on their hands preparing for Sword and Shield when that does get introduced officially on the 4th of January next year. But we'll be doing some content around that just to make sure that everyone's aware of the rules when they do come in. We've got our next opponent. It's going to be a Ray Ogre team. Dual Mega with Potentially Mega Gengar there alongside the Mega Requires. Staka-taka. Tabakoko and Incinero. So this strict room definitely on this team we need to be a bit careful of. Gastrodon again is here for that Staka-taka matchup. It does well against Koko Mega Gengar as well as that Kyogre. So definitely want to bring it and the Incinero. So do want to bring that along to the party, I think. I'm going to bring Incinera and the Requires. Incinero, Gastrodon and I think, what do we want in our last slot? Maybe Tabakoko? Yeah, we've got Koko. Koko Maloko. Okay, so I think we could probably, I don't really want to take a Dragon Ascent unnecessarily. The Koko will probably protect you, I would imagine. We could switch Horde Switch into Koko and Horde Switch into Gastrodon here. The problem is, it gives my opponent the opportunity to get some big damage off with Tabakoko. Which you don't really want to do. I'm going to just pull the Horde Switch on both ends. It just means we've got the Intimidate in the back. Koko going to protect, going to see protect from Requires. So Requires can protect this next turn. Other than Tabakoko, other than the Requires, my opponent doesn't have anything that it really wants to be switching into an Earth Power. So I'm quite happy at Earth Powering into that slot and going for Twinkle Tackle into this Ray here. We might see Ray switch out to Stacks, but at the same time, I think the worst thing that we could see is maybe a Twinkle Tackle from the Tabakoko into Gastrodon and a Dragon Ascent like doubling up in that slot. But if the Ray does attack and it's not a Salt Vest, it will go down to this Twinkle Tackle here. So we do get it off, let's see what variant it is. And it's just a regular old Ray. So we've got Sky Drop. Ooh, tasty. Okay, Incineroar going to hit the field now. We're going to just get faked out, but I'm going to try for the Earth Power there and I'll try for a Horde Switch as well. We're just going to see it, so no attacks here. We do get it off, so that's quite nice and we'll get... Do we want to get Incineroar in all Rayquaza? It might be good to get Incineroar. I'm kind of wary about that Tabakoko still with the Twinkle Tackle, even though it's revealed Sky Drop already kind of maybe indicates that it's not that variant. I'm going to go for Earth Power into Koko and I'll go for a U-Turn into the Incineroar. It's undoubtedly going to be the Kyogre in the back and I don't think my opponent really has a way to deal with Gastrodon. I think their best way to deal with it would have been at Twinkle Tackle. We'll just bring in Koko once again. Koko might be okay. I hope I was avoiding it, he's a Stax, so we'll just go for... I mean the Koko probably switches out here. I just don't want my opponent getting a Trick Room up, so I'm going to go into the Stack Attacker and I'm going to both switch into the Koko. It might have been better doubling into the Stack Attacker thinking that it might have the Shooker Berry. And this sort of build as well that makes sense to have the Shooker Berry. You don't need to really think about the safety goggles. These are all things that you want to be thinking about. You know the safety goggles here, you've got the electric terrain so you don't need to worry about that too much.  And there it is, yeah, so like I said it does make sense in this sort of build. It does get the Trick Room up, but I mean it's not really helping it that much is it. So we'll go for Fake Out and Earth Pirate to the Stax. Tapa Koko going to hit the field once again, so I mean we're going to be able to get the Stack Attacker for free here. The Tapa Koko is in a terrible position here. So while setting up your own Trick Room seems like a good idea at the time and then it backfires a little bit when you've got that one... really offensive Pokemon that just doesn't perform well in the Trick Room environment. We'll protect Gastrodon and we'll go for Fledlets into Koko. I'd imagine we'll see, ooh, we're going to see Zee move from Incineroar into Gastrodon. So good job we did protect there, that would have done big damage otherwise. And a critical hit into... We'll say good game and we'll move on swiftly to our next game. I had a crit there big but I don't think it really mattered in the end. My opponent could probably have stole our Trick Room but then Tapa Koko is still in a really awkward position where it's probably taking damage in extreme speed range once we're in quasi, hits the field once again. This is an interesting team we've got for our next opponent. We've got Mewtwo and Duskman and the Crosmars, the Restricted Pear. Seeing not so familiar face from past formats in Cresselia. Still a very good Pokemon I feel. Offer Trick Room support, Helping Hand, Skill Swap, lots of different things there. Tabulele we're going to have that fast psychic call probably making me to Y and Ultra and a Crosmire would imagine on the two Pokemon here. Whimsicott with the Speed Control support as well helps shut things down with its prankster ability. But in all honesty, I think we could probably get away with going... Here we go Zernius and I don't really want to go in Cidero. Like in Cidero is great in this match, I've got to bring it. And I don't know whether I want to go Serena, because Gastron can be good if the Trick Room does go but I don't think my opponent goes for the Trick Room to be honest. Rayquaza is going to be extremely good. Maybe Koko to change the terrain, be a nice option there. The only reason Serena would have been really good in this match would have been if we see this Whimsicott and we are actually indeed seeing it.  I don't know if we'll be able to, we might just see it protect. Whimsicott go for a Tailwind here. But I think the one thing that we want to try and do if we do see a Tailwind go up with the Whimmy is it's a problem with Whimmy though. I might just go Das and Gleam and Flareblitz into the Whimmy just to get rid of it. I always worry about, always worry about Endeavor on Whimsicott and it's always something I never really like to deal with. I just want to get rid of it. It's always going to go for Speed Control at turn 1. And this may come back to bite us but at the same time, you know, we've got to just try and get around things the best we can. I will try and snarl here but I don't think we're going to be able to. It's either snarling, U-Turning or I mean we could attack with Zernius as well but we want to try. I mean one of the things we could do is protect, switch in Koko. If Koko goes down here then we get Incinero back in and we've got the fake out Gleam and see that we can utilize. So Koko does go down which would be good if it could. It doesn't unfortunately. We're going to see it taunt. I'm trying to manufacture that board position. It's worked out a little bit too awkward for us. I don't know if a Dazzle and a Thunderbolt will get the Zernius though. That's the thing and a Dazzle probably gets the Koko and you could just protect your own Koko just to preserve things. You see the Dazzle? There we go. We might be taking down parts of Wild Charge but that Intimidate coming in so hard at first there. So taking down the Koko, Chippin' the Lele setting us up for that requires us to come in at the end game here. The only thing we have to worry about a little bit is the Ultranocrosma. Now if we can... Oh it's the... It's not... It's Mewtwo. Okay. So we want Koko now. I might protect Zernius. I'm gonna... But I mean, the thing is, it's Scarf Lele. We can't really do anything. So the Fakeout's not helping us massively. We could just double protect... Well we can't double... We can't protect with Koko. And Incineroar would probably be better suited. We're just gonna take a Dazzling Leela. That's the problem I think. That's what I don't really like. We'll go for the Z-Move Try. I don't really want to go for the Double Protecting because I don't feel like we'll get it. We'll go down to Dazzle. Yeah. And then we'll see what it's Mewtwo. Shadow Ball thing. Um... Okay. Well... Mega Ray can come in. I think... I feel confident that an Extreme Speed from this range will get the Leela. And we can try and GM I see. Um... Well Mega Revolve and Extreme Speed from Leela. I mean... Yeah, I think we've got to because otherwise we just take a Dazzling Leem and the Mewtwo can double into the Ray. Um... And if we can... If that's the play they go for, maybe we can get a GM I see off if we get the Leela. Which we do with a Crit. So whether that matters or not, I don't know. But... Um... We do pick up the win though. So... The Crit might have mattered. I don't know. I'd have to go back and check the Damage Calculator. But we'll jump into our next one. We've probably got time for a couple more I reckon today. So... Um... The big thing about this week is though I've not really done any showdown content primarily on the channel ever before. So it's going to be something that I'd like some feedback on from all of you watching from home. So... And whether or not in future if we do it, do you want the base cam on? Do you want... Do you just like the full screen? Just me chatting away in the background. Tied up to yourselves but it's all information that would be really appreciated if you could let me know. Um... Okay. So I think Ray... Alright. Incineroar. Serena and... Um... Do we want Xerneus? Do we want Xerneus? Xerneus isn't bad. I like Xerneus here actually. Yeah let's go for Xerne. Um... Okay. Let's go for a Dragon Ascent into Merkrow. And bring in Serena. Let's stop this fake out shenanigans. Let's stop all these quash shenanigans as well. Um... Then the next turn we've got potentially Fade. If the Merkrow is Sashed, which you would have expected to be, maybe. If you're liked, potentially as well. Um... We could maybe go for a help in hand. Dragon Ascent into the Incineroar. We take down the Merkrow. We're not taking it down now. So that's probably better for us. Um... Do you see the tailwind come up? Um... Maybe it's a good time to pull a double switch here. Because I don't want to take a foul play on Dracoisa. And um... The Merkrow... Probably won't have Speed Ray, but you never know with how it's been trained. We're going to sit and knock off, and that is not ideal at all. Foul play as well into that slot. Um... But we can go for a Geo. Um... It's whether or not... Yeah. We'll go for the Geo. We'll go for a two-turn Geo. Yeah. Haha! Doesn't matter whatever happens there. Um... What's my point I'm going to bring in? Okay. Let's see. Well, we'll bring in Ray. Groudon. Perfect opportunity to go for a... Earthquake, I think. Earthquake would be really good here. I worry about whether or not we're going to see um... Dragon Claw. I'm just dragging this Groudon. But I'll go with Earthquake. I'll bring in Serena. It sucks if those Earthquakes pretty nicely here. Rock slide! Okay. Uh...  Getting rid of our band. That's disastrous for us. We do get rid of the Incineroar. The tailwind's going to end. Ray's going to be the fastest thing in the field. Apart from... This is... Uh... The scissor. Hmm. Now, the scissor goes Bullet Punch. Um... And we could go Extreme Speed. Helping hand. But I just don't see it being enough to take down the Groudon. This is tough. This is tricky because I think... Unless we can switch in, Bullet Punch doesn't get us and we get a Dragon Ascent onto the Groudon. That would be the biggest, I think the best situation here. Oh, it's Mega Scissor. I think we're knackered now. It's not even Bullet Punching. It's going Bug Bite. It doesn't steal anything. But I mean, this works out fine. This works out better because now we just vac out the scissor. We go Dragon Ascent into the Groudon. Um... We could have went Earthquake as well. But hopefully this is enough. It is enough. And now this is our soul. This works out alright. Bullet Punch there could have been a bit wary for us. So maybe we could get away with it a little bit more than we maybe should have done. But at the same time, it doesn't look like it's got the Bullet Punch. Oh, it has. And it's worried about the Serena switching in the whole time. So that could be the thing. So good game. Mega Petrainer left. So we'll hop back on and this will be our last one of the day. So let's hopefully we can get a win. Nice spicy team to end up the episode today. Time is straight on. Going to have that Raoga combination here. Mega Metagross is going to be the mega I would imagine. Coneidus as well. Undeniable speed control with Tailwind there with that prankster ability. Smiggle and Incinero on the other side of the field. So I think maybe we can do something like this. Incinero's earliest Serena and I reckon um... Rayquaza. Yeah, I'm liking this. So what we'll do to him one is go Serena. We'll go Geomancy.  That would be my best guess. And then the next term what we'll do is switch Serena straight back out or protect Zernius and we'll have that Incinero fake out once again. Ooh, we're torn even better because now we just go fade into the Coneidus and Dazzling Gleam. And we're laughing. Laughing. Because there's the Tailwind undeniably. We can't prevent that. But we can get rid of the Tornadus here. Incinero gone for that. Flablitz. Serena showing its bulk. Especially after the Intimidate. If you want the spread as always it is down in the description. Serena spread and Metagross going to hit the field now. I think what we'll do is go for a U-turn into the... Yeah, because I don't mind losing Serena right now. I want to be able to get an Intimidate and Metagross before it can do much damage. Yeah, we do lose it. Now Incinero going to take a bit more chip damage. Activate that Berry. Just fine. Now we're getting the Incinero in. And we've got the opportunity to go for a fake out into the Metagross. Whether we do that I think probably better go and fall fake out into the Incinero here and just go and Dazzle. I think the Metagross is going to protect 100% of the amount of take unnecessary damage. It's opponents like we're dealing with Zernius. We need to preserve it even though the tail runs up.  So hopefully we can get this read right.  It's likely going to be Kyogre though but I think with Rayquaza in the back and there we go Rayquaza comes in and Metagross not wanting to stick around and this is going to punish my opponent even more. So then Metagross going to come back in and I think now it's just it's too late for my opponent to really do anything so we just Flareblitz and Dazzle and Gleam and that is going to be game and we pick up another victory here today which is very good for us isn't it. So Ironhead coming up and this last turn the tail wind ooh that's not good Throtrop not so good either you should have attacked maybe the Zernius there I'm forgetting myself that we're in that last turn the tail wind but never mind because whatever happens here it's all alright we had Ray in the back anyway so just a little bit of a misguided attempt from ourselves but that will wrap things up for us so good game to chooms even though he's left and we have a habit of doing that but it's been a lot of fun my friends. Like I say I hope you've enjoyed this week with some just different content on the channel and if you do enjoy this sort of content we would like it added because it's easy for me to do it's nice I enjoy chatting and things like that so just playing around with teams I'm quite happy to come back every week with a different team we can just explore and look at different ideas and how they change it and see how it actually does on the ladder so let's have a look at what we've done this week 23 wins 9 losses it's pretty bad you really want your GXE it's early days as well we're 1346 you know so we've not played that many matches like 30 games not a great record though but and some of those have been disconnected from internet issues as well so I will just say that I'm just going to drop that in there but yeah I mean you really want your GXE you're looking at like a 70% minimum and you want your team to be consistently hitting that going into tournaments you really want to be pushing more towards 80% to kind of like run in line with that X2 record that's where you're kind of aiming at 80% like 10 games you're winning 8th losing 2 so around that number that's where you want to be aiming it's not easy to do of course but if you're hitting that you've got to feel confident going into a tournament and I think around the 70% mark you're doing alright and as long as you've got your matchups down you're looking alright going into things so we're going to wrap it up there but thank you so much for tuning in have a great rest of your day and I'll see you all for the next one send to line, take care and bye bye


In part three of this series, we're talking money, dinero, cold, hard cash, and the different ways that you can earn it through Gino Pet Habitat. Kevin goes into detail on exactly what habitats are, how they work, and how you can get one, or even three through minting. Don't have money to buy a habitat. It's all good. You can actually rent a habitat from someone who does have a habitat. So let's go ahead and dive right into part three of this series. All right. So let's go ahead and jump into the habitat. We touched on this briefly, but I definitely want to get into more of the details. I know this was recently released this month, and this is something that you don't get for free in the game. This is if you want to be part of the economy, you want to be part of the earn part of the economy, you have to purchase a habitat. So can you break down exactly what role the habitats play in the game? I think to understand the role of the habitats, maybe we'll take a step back and understand exactly what we're trying to build here in terms of the economy. Typically, with a game like this, you have a free loop, and then the developer, the game maker, the studio, is selling items, special rare attributes, equipment, special content to the players for a premium. And it's an entirely closed system, right? So you pay money to the developer, they allow you to play the expansion that gets you the special sort of doom, and everything happens within this closed system where there's no change in actual ownership of the assets. You're paying for the privilege of being able to access this content. That's not what we want to do. We want to create a Web3 in-game economy where every asset in the game, every item, whether it's a geno pet's toy, its food, its wings, its new set of horns, all of these are tokenized assets that the players can own and trade and transact with amongst themselves. In order to really facilitate that though, we realize that we need to give players the ability to be agents and to be masters of their own destiny within this economy. And the habitat, which is narratively the geno pet's home, is really the key to unlocking that. By purchasing a habitat, you are purchasing ultimately the ability to create items for the game. So right now it's crystals that you refine them. I see some players are selling them, some players are using them to upgrade their habitats for stronger capabilities. But ultimately this is sort of the next immediate big release that we're pushing for. The ability to craft will mean that you can take these crystals that the habitat generates, use your steps and turn the steps into the required ingredient token, the key token, and then combine them to create things like food, toys, special items, equipment. And so the players are going to be the ones not only utilizing these items and the content, but they will also be creating and supplying it as well to each other. And so this player-to-player economy where the players have control over the creation of these assets is integral to what we're doing. It's a little scary to be honest with you because I, especially for me, I come from an industry where you try to give the players as little control as possible for their own good and for the good of the overall system. But in our game, we're giving them unprecedented control. And the habitat is really what unlocks that. If you have a habitat, you'll be able to make augments. You'll be able to refine and create crystals that can be combined to make a cooler and stronger toy than what the free player might find in his free journey. And so these are real, that's not a big deal when everything exists inside a closed server, but it is a very big deal when it's an open system and players can freely trade that and own those assets. And that's why the habitat is so critical because that is what allows the player to have that capability. Okay, that's awesome. So we have another community question here submitted by Andres Calvo. So he just got himself a code. He says, are habitats needed to advance in the game? If you're talking about the game, the pet RPG, are habitats necessary for you to enjoy having an active lifestyle journey with your pet and exploring the genovers? No. And that that will never be the case. Habitats will never be a requirement for you to enjoy the game. However, it will give you a lot of advantages and they'll and really actually, I kind of view the habitat as unlocking a different game within the game. It's the crafting and economy game with the habitat. Now the game that you're playing is well, what items are in demand? Like are is this particular horn augment that allows you to perform this particular attack or this crystal that turns your genome pet into a certain elemental type for battle? Is that what's in demand right now because of the meta? If so, let me plan for that. Let me refine the crystals. Let me make sure I have the recipes and let me make that. And when we put it up on the marketplace, it's a whole different game. It's an economic game, which some players are interested in, but we think many players won't be interested in. They'll be the beneficiaries, right? They'll be buying those items, but it's a very different game from the active lifestyle game. Now it all starts, it all comes back to move to play. It all starts with taking steps because whether you want to craft or whether you want to explore, you're going to need to walk. But they're kind of different games and one is a game within the game so to speak. The next question that I have for you, another community sent question is from a big daddy. He says, if I was looking to purchase a habitat, what specifics do I need to take into account when making the decisions? Because I know there's different terrains, there's different levels. So what is it that we have to focus on and take into account when making that decision? The first thing you'll want to look at if you were checking out a marketplace and just browsing the listing, the first thing you'd want to look at is whether it is a Genesis habitat or if it is a non-Genesis, a regular habitat. The Genesis habitats were the very first habitats ever formed. They're special. They have some rare abilities that regular habitats, even habitats that they themselves create, won't have. For example, every habitat has an elemental type as you mentioned. The elemental types have no intrinsic advantage over one another. They're all going to be unique in their own way. There's no element that's stronger or better than the other at the moment as far as habitats are concerned. However, your elemental type determines what type of crystal your habitat generates. These are the ingredient-based components for a lot of the crafting that's going to be released within the game.  The Genesis habitat is the only type of habitat that's capable of refining any type of elemental crystal based on the holder's desire. So there's a lot of flexibility there. It doesn't seem like much, but when you consider the fact that we're about to release over 90 different craftable items each with their own recipe, which requires different mixes of crystals, you start to see how powerful that actually is. If you just have a Genesis habitat, you may not need to go and buy more crystals, whereas if you have an earth habitat and you want to make this one particular item that requires a fire crystal as well as an earth crystal, you're going to go have to buy that fire crystal. So that flexibility is there. They also have a marginal increase debatable. The holders think it's too little. The non-holders think it's too much, but the Genesis habitats have an increased cap in terms of how much he token, the in-game utility and reward token, they can harvest using their steps. There's different levels to the habitats and depending on the level, is that more access to how much you can earn? Is that how it is? Yeah. So to come back to the original question, you'll want to check if it's Genesis or not, and then you'll want to check its level because there's three levels and the higher level it is, the more key you can harvest and the more crystals you can refine, the more you can kind of do pretty much everything. It is just a more powerful habitat. And then you may want to look at whether it's connected to any other habitats because we have created this feature where if you have a primary habitat, you can connect two more habitats to it, up to two more, and that will cumulatively increase its harvest key token earning power as well as its refinement capabilities as well. Okay. And how is it that you restore and repair these habitats? So repairing is the maintenance action. You can, you burn a crystal in order to restore one lifespan. Every habitat starts with 90 lifespan, as well as a certain amount of durability, depending on its level. Level ones have 90 durability, level twos have 180 durability, and level threes have 270 durability. And that's just the number of times you can repair it basically by burning a crystal to restore. Now, I know that there is a rental aspect to these habitats. And this is a question submitted by Paja Seth or Paja Seth, I'm not sure how to pronounce that name, but they're basically asking, can you share habitats with friends? And I know that there's a rental feature. So can you elaborate a little bit on the rental feature and how it benefits, how it works and how it benefits both the owner and the user who is renting? It's a really key part of this player-to-player economy and this player-led ecosystem that we're trying to design. If you own a habitat, you should be able to rent it out if you want. You should be able to make agreements with other players and share the benefits. There's two types of rental contracts that are possible with the habitat. First is the delegation of harvesting rights. So you can delegate someone as the harvester. That means that they will walk and they will convert their steps into key token for you, and then you as the landlord and they as the harvester will split the key that is generated from walking. So that's one way to share the capability of the habitat and many of our partners and guild partners are utilizing this mechanic. The other rental type is the alchemist role, which is essentially you're renting out the NFT crafting and refining rights. If you assign someone as an alchemist, they're the ones who can refine crystals. They own the crystals that are generated, but they pay you a fixed amount in rent for that rental period and all of this has been built in as part of habitat management because it's a key part of how we think the habitats are going to be used for the players. Another community member, Erwan, asked, can I harvest daily key and rent it at the same time? So a player can harvest from one habitat or one habitat setup within 24 hours. So you would probably not want to harvest and like be a renter and rent it out at the same time. I think you would want either you're going to harvest from the habitat that you can harvest from. If you have an extra habitat, then you would rent it out and someone else will harvest from it for you and split the harvest with you as the landlord. How many habitats can you own? And this is submitted by SlimD. They want to know how many and you mentioned that you can put together three habitats. I think you said you could connect up to three. So how many habitats can you own? And you mentioned one of the perks already of having multiple habitats. So can you elaborate on that a little bit? Yeah, I mean I think the main benefit of multiple habitats comes from being able to connect them and you can connect up to two to one to get a setup of three habitats, one primary and two sub habitats connected. Beyond that, I mean look, you can own as many habitats as you want. However, there are certain guard rails and parameters around the usage of habitats, which means that yeah, you can't like I said, you can't own 10 habitats and just harvest from all of them in a day. However, you can refine crystals from all of them and these are the sort of nuances of the game that I encourage people to check out the white paper to truly understand. But at a high level, you can own as many as you want. You can really only make use of one, however many you can manage on the interface. But as far as harvesting is concerned, within a 24-hour period, you would want to be focused just on the one habitat or the one with connected habitats that that's your main harvesting one.
