    Unoriginal plots=BAAAD!

    *shudders* I know some fics that are based off of Ruby Saphire plots are really good (like Legends of Hoeen) but most turn out to be horrible and unoriginal. If you want to do one make sure to give it lots of plot twists

    I posted a new fanfic called Wanzewald Pokemon Contest which is a parody of the pokemon anime. Hopefully itll get more reviews then Whirl Island Quest

    That must be the most troubling thing to any reviewer... give the thumbs down for such a thing and you get insulted for being biased because you're marking on plot (which a reviewer should never do). Give it the thumbs up and you feel bad for giving a terribly-boring fanfic (because it feels like you've read it for the 3rd time already) a high mark... it's irritating x_x;

    However, there's plenty of "game-plot" fanfics that are good... I'm not as worried about this type of fanfic in comparison to... *drumroll*

    "Oh Ash let's go to ________ region! There's a new Pokemon tournament there"

    The OT/New region fanfics >>; Somehow usually fanfics that use Brendan/Yuuki turns out pretty original, as if Brendan/Yuuki is some kind of gurantee for at least decent plots.

    That's because you can do anything with Brendan's character since he hasn't been shown in the anime before (not unless you count that cameo in the... 7th movie was it?). You can make him stupid or sweet and all that fun stuff. =D

    Most of them have him fall in love with May way too early in fics though (stupid hoennshippers heh).

    just surprised that no one turned him into "Ash III" that's all... beause in GSC days Kenta/Yoshi got plenty of stories that made him "Ash II," and that was before the Pokemon Raikou Special came out. Brendan/Yuuki for some reason didn't the same path... it's kinda strange.

    lol yes... we know that you're the most famous around Pokemon fanfics when it comes to Ru/Sa fics Breezy ;p

    Don't worry, it's not like that..... but I'm having probelms with the personalities of my co-rpgers, so, I'm not going to continue it.......

    >one is like, no description on his rpg at all, the other one is okay and the last one keeps adding new plots to it! XD

    >and breezy, what are you doing here?

    meh... that's why I can't join RPG... just feels so... unfulfilled when everything is starting so nice and smoothly until suddenly someone comes by and suddenly every character is turned into some mindless, toneless, personality-less puppets of mass murder, and whatever junk like that... >>; I can't RP...


    Either way, in look of a fellow experienced writer who got the time to perhaps beta-read and comment on my humble sucky ch.1 of some unknown fanfic of mine, anyone? Hopefully, it'll be done by Tuesday latest ^_^;

    I'm glad he didn't heh. *remembers the old GSC days and shudders*

    I wonder why though... You would think they would.

    I still wonder if being known for that is a good thing. o.o Least I got a name lol. XP

    Edit: I forgot why I was posting here heh. Anyways, I wrote this poem thing called "Tiny Paws" and I updated "Who Shot Brendan Birch?". Yay for me. :) I'd love you if you'd review. ;P

    Depends on how you want the fanfic to be done. Some people write by Stream of Consciousness Writing where they do almost absolutely zero planning at all on purpose. Some people likes to have the overall network of the plot figured out first, and then start writing and adding extra information along the way.

    It's another strategy to decide rather you want to write the entire fanfic then start posting, or if you want to write one chapter and then post it immediately so you can immediate feedbacks for improvement, and so on.

    Seems that either way works for people, but most writers will have one way over the other. I personally realized that it's best for me to plan the framework and then start writing, and (from the past failured experiences) never post a chapter until I actually have the entire fanfic written out.

    Writer's block sucks monkey apples. :) Very hard for me to get out of it now n days...

    Anyways, I try thinking up of the main points in the next chapter and try to write part of it down, and then afterward, connect those scenes. Kinda weird, but it works for me.

    Or writing another story works (hence why I have seven million fics that need updating lol). If all else fails, force it. Fun stuff really. ^_^

    ^what a funny thing to do, Breezy! XD

    >I have other fan fics, and yet, I started out with titles, but it is sooo hard for me to try and write all of those chapterful stories! XD

    >so, as for Pokemon fan fics, I'm having probelms with descriptions, such as locations, the sending in, sending out of pokemon and their attacks..... can anyone help me out?

    >that's why in my fanfic, you'll rarely find battle scenes!

    If anyone cares to read my FF? I'm not sure whether people finds my story lame or what? At least gimme some comments of yars! Or I'll feel so depressed that I failed for my first FF... Oh yah, It's called Back in time (it has nothin' related to Serebii!), rather, the 1st chap's about Green & Yellow... But I got a feeling that I ruined it... *cries*>_<;;
