I feel as though people are sometimes a little soft on OS, whether because of it being their first and them being fond of childhood memories or because of it being the original and them feeling like they’ve got to cut it some slack. I can understand people liking it — it’s by no means bad — but...

As a pre-existing pokémon, my cat would probably be a litten or a meowth/Alolan meowth. As a pokémon of his own, I feel like he'd be a ghost/normal type with most of his stat points distributed in speed and attack, probably with an ability that enhances one of or both of those stats. Speed boost...

As a first-time play-through, any of the gen iv or gen v games. As something that’s replayed over and over again, XY are incredibly easy to get through for me without feeling like a chore.

Ice types deserve more resistances IMO. Given that it’s just... hard water, I feel as though it should have a few extra defences to replicate that. A resistance to water (minus scald, which I think should be super effective), grass, that sort of thing. I fail to see how a bug could hurt ice...

I’m terrible with phone conversations and would rather avoid them altogether since I’m absolutely a “hand-talker”. But if it’s a conversation in person, particularly one with someone I like or about a topic I’m interested in, I can talk for days on end. The other person doesn’t even necessarily...

Thank you for the feedback! I agree that anime fics are rather difficult to pull off — having preexisting characters with personalities you need to nail is not always the easiest thing to do, especially in a fic like this, where the characters have to deal with a dilemma they haven’t ever faced...

Kalos is burning, Ash might be dying and Pikachu isn't Pikachu anymore. Team Rocket started the fight, Team Flare plans on finishing it and Professor Oak just wants to complete the newest version of the pokédex. Oh - and Ash still hasn't gotten his eighth badge. That's all on Pikachu, but you'll...

#1 — Diamond & Pearl / Sinnoh Region In all honesty, this is the one region I struggle to fathom hatred for. Say what you will about the games, but personally, this is the season the anime started to really step up. It had unprecedented animation for its time in comparison to earlier seasons...

For me, the idea of marrying a pokemon is like marrying an animal, albeit an intelligent one - it doesn’t ring true for me. Otherwise, I can still say I wouldn’t want him to marry any of them because the romantic synergy just doesn’t exist for me.

Having them be uncatchable bosses — or uncatchable for a good portion of the post-game until eventually the beast balls or something similar are engineered (which could have been a plot) — would have been really neat, especially since then they’d have no bearing on the dex. I don’t think they...

I really appreciate the obvious tension between Guzma and Kukui, as well as the obvious inward tension Guzma seems to possess. He’s a pretty good translation from the games to the anime, which isn’t always done effectively — and I especially liked Ash’s reaction to his arrival. I don’t think...

IMO I don’t think any of them should marry him - I didn’t see any romantic synergy between any of them from Ash. True, Serena was blatantly interested in Ash (to the point where she kissed him), but I never saw anything from Ash suggesting that he felt even remotely the same. Of all his...

Pikachu. Elekid or magby?

Given that pokemon have been shown to be capable of escaping their poke balls at will, I don’t think that would be an issue. Plus, I feel as though some Pokemon would be smart enough to operate the PC. As for disasters with oil spills or fires or other human-designed problems, given the...

That would probably be a more apt descriptor of it - a shaper of terrain and terrain-shapers alike, rather than the sole creator of everything seen in the universe.
