@System Error Hey man, thanks for the review. Appreciate your feedback. When I was writing most of this fic I had grand plans for a couple sequels, but I think that was majorly to the detriment of the story. I think before I ever get around to writing the sequel (singular) I'll first rewrite...

And that’s a wrap. I put a lot of effort into trying to recapture here a bit of the joy and wonder that attracted me to Pokémon fanfiction in the first place, so hopefully that came through. A little bit nostalgic, a little bit campy. It was never really a question for me as to whether or not I...

...requested since the lyrics mentioned Pallet Town in particular. I shook hands. I hugged. I laughed. I tried not to cry. I was the Champion. ***** The last few hundred yards of the mountain trail were nothing but stone and gravel, well above the tree line, but I stubbornly kept my eyes on...

...said as he opened the door to head back through the gym. “The best, bravest, strongest you can be.” I stood up straight and nodded. “I will be.” ***** The next morning was sunny, with only a few spotty clouds. I felt fresh, ready, invigorated. Perhaps more than I had a right to be given...

...I’m up here,” David said. “I’ll see you tomorrow morning.” He left me alone with my thoughts, but not quite as alone as I had felt before. ***** I had a rough time sleeping that night and ended up waking early the next morning to find my headache had returned. Nevertheless, I felt rested...

...Spencer was probably tactfully navigating some issue for Silph. She’d given them everything she could. She gave them a sense of right and wrong, a strong work ethic, compassion and helpfulness. She gave them each other. She gave them love. She just hoped it was enough. ***** Thanks for...

...“I feel so… isolated.” WE ARE HERE “I know.” I choked back tears again. “You always are. I just… I hope you need me as much as I need you.” ***** Agatha was the last to arrive to the pier the next morning. Part of me wondered if she was trying to make some sort of ironic commentary on...

...middle of the lake. "Well," I said. "Wish me luck." Olivia made a face. "I would, but... I think that might be against the rules." I laughed. ***** The field was in immaculate shape. There was no sign of my battle with Lorelei yesterday. There must be a team of people making sure all...

...about him. It didn’t work. Tears welled up anyway. I took a deep breath and looked at each of my Pokémon. “Let’s do this one for Baron, yeah?” ***** Not long past sunrise the following morning, I was on board the League’s trawler, cruising towards the island where the first battle would...

Logging here. One for each day-ish. Was good to get back into reviewing. It's been too long. Read a lot of stories by people I've been meaning to review for a while. https://forums.bulbagarden.net/index.php?threads/im-a-marionette.290507/#post-7390611...

Okay. Long time coming on this, but what's new. I think I've re-read the first six-ish chapters of this four or five times now, and I finally got around to actually reading the rest of the fic too. We have already talked at length about all sorts of things pertaining to this story, so I'll try...

Hello! I've seen a decent chunk of the anime, but I stopped after Sinnoh. That said, it seems like knowledge of canon will at most be helpful for catching references. Opening with a dream sequence is always neat. Personally I prefer to make it really obvious that it's a dream from the get-go...

Hi there, just read up to and including Chapter 9. Seemed like a good pausing place to leave a review. This story has a strong start for sure. Not just the ominous dream either. We get right into relevant action with relevant characters in a way that teaches us about who they are and what the...

Hi there, finally got around to reading this. No experience with Orre to be honest, but I've absorbed some stuff over the years so we'll see how far that gets me. Please forgive my ignorance. I like cute slice of life stories, so this is nice. Low stakes, interesting world, character drama...

This is really cool. I was a bit worried by the meta nature of it at first. Interactive fiction is fun, as is 4th wall breaking, but it can often come at the cost of the actual storytelling. So I liked that it pivoted pretty quickly to being an in-world thing. Putting the rest in spoilers as...

Hey there. I just got up through Chapter 7 and decided this was a good time to pause and leave a review. I like the concept a lot. Humans interacting with not-quite-humans is always a fun topic and character dynamic to play around with. It's also a great setup for a journey fic (or at least a...

Hey there. This hasn't updated in a while, but nothing says it's abandoned and I've gone longer without updating myself so I thought I'd leave my thoughts here anyway. I really like the idea of the structure. I'm a big believer in episodic stuff for fanfic, and the two stories that will...

Decided to stop by here for my first review for the daily review challenge since I've seen you around and you seem cool. You mention this is a very personal story, and it shows. That makes it kind of hard to offer criticism, since what am I gonna do? Tell you that's not how eating disorders...

Like 20 min late technically, but I'm going to try to do this anyway even if it doesn't count.

I had a similar conundrum while writing a medieval-era Pokémon fic. For a while I thought that the term 'Pokémon' wouldn't make sense, since (presumably) even in canon it was short for 'Pocket Monsters' which ceases to be a fitting name in the absence of Poké Balls. Eventually I decided to stick...
