Not a lady. :)

Impossible. I'm from Pallet, surely I'd have heard of you!

Never heard of you. Are you a trainer of some sort?

Thank you for that thoughtful and altogether helpful review. You've given me a deal to think about, and I appreciate it. I'll offer some specific responses to answer some of your concerns, which are all quite valid. Mary Leaf - I primarily want to refer to characters the way they're best...

CHAPTER ONE - RATS! Route 1 It was almost midday when the pair of young trainers set out towards Viridian City. Having lived in Pallet Town for as long as she could remember, Leaf had little knowledge of the world beyond—though she had of course read of the great Safari Zone in Fuschia...

1. Ah, excellent. I'll have to find the index by hand, I guess? 2. Yeah, I don't know how to make tools... as far as using a hex editor, how would I know which addresses to replace?

What tool would I use to extract sprites? Depends what sprites you're talking about. You'd use unLZ.gba for Pokemon, trainer, and item sprites. I think you can also use it for trainer backsprites in Ruby. You'd use Tile Molester for backsprites in FireRed. You'd use Overworld Editor for...

Salamence is GenIII and ugly. :p As far as ice beam, well, any true dragon considers it an honor to have a massive weakness to ice. :p

Well, the Charizard and Gyarados can be conceivably considered pseudo-dragons (I don't know what the deal with Aerodactyl was, though), and since they were in RBY, I have no problem with them. I almost always have a Charmander and its evolutions on my team whenever possible--the only Pokemon I...

I haven't really watched since the Indigo League, though I've seen a few of the GBA episodes here and there. I never liked May in the games, but she was pretty likable in the show--surprisingly. I'm annoyed they changed Ash's classic costume. I never liked him either, but it's a classic! Argh...

Sadly, Dawn seems to be one of the more popular heroines. I bet it's for her ample... characterization. Hah! Yeah, the trailer looks pretty amazing. If the game were anything like that, I'd probably have gotten a Wii in order to play it. Yeah, there's a *lot* of "fanservice" on Pokesho. I...

Well, I think that fanservice was the idea from the very beginning. I mean, the DP outfit is pretty skimpy in is own right. I don't begrudge them their moneymaking strategies, I just wish that they'd stop making the protagonists so young if they want to do that. They can't have it both ways, as...

You bet. Like I said, I appreciate the intent behind the comments--I just don't feel they're terribly applicable. Disagreement is not offense: and just as you are free to make suggestions to something I posted on a messageboard, I am similarly free to have an opinion about it. This is not a...

Scales: "Traditional fiction"? Whose tradition? Dating from when? "Writers usually do not use prologues"? Which writers? How typically is "usual"? You're quite welcome to your opinions, but I don't find it helpful to post tips based on vague generalizations that aren't backed up by citation...

Oh, I can't stand Dawn's character design. Wearing an outfit like that, at her age? What a hussy! Leaf's drawn so that she looks 13-14, so her miniskirt and tank top are fine, but Dawn looks 11 and is dressed far too inappropriately. And then in Platinum, they give her a coat to better fit the...
