I actually really like the look of this. While I agree with the slight problems that Fireworks pointed out in his post above, I also agree that the vagueness of the story is a good thing. I quite like the mapping- for a hack that uses the default graphics, you've still managed to keep it interesting; while this is a tired argument, that's not too easy to do, really.
And that Gym Battle music? Amazing. Keep up the great work, I look forward to seeing more of this!
Looks promising, good luck!
How are you doing? How far are you?
Love it! Keep up the work!
Really nice. Where is the music from?
