Don't you always have a two week pause between your updates? I really did think this update was relatively fast.
 
The prologue of my fanfic is up! You can click the banner in my sig to check it out! Yeah, it's a journey fic, but I've tried to make it as interesting as I can. Suggestions are always welcome!

Heh, sure thing. I reviewed it on Serebii a while ago, but I've never caught up. This'll be a good chance too.

And Griff, reviewed yours. Great chap, BTW.
 
Hmm, well, since everyone seems to be advertising their fics in here, I may as well jump on the bandwagon. :P

I posted the rewrite of one of my fics a couple of days ago... 'Heart of the Magma', it's called, the link's in my sig. It's only a one-shot, but it leads up to my chaptered fic, so it's quite long. ^.^;; Anyways. Read it, ignore it, whatever floats your boat.
 
Okay guys and gals, if any of you recall from a few pages back, I was going to write a comedy/tragedy story that needed foundations before I could start. I'm early in the planning stages, but I need to know one fact before anything is set in stone. Is there any Pokemon that can travel through dimensions? It is very crucial to my story.

Well, I don't know much about Sinnoh pokemon but from what I've heard one of the legendaries is called 'the Dimension Pokemon', which suggests some kind of ability like that. You might want to get confirmation of that, though.

The other one I can think of is the unown; if I recall correctly, their pokedex line says something along the lines of 'it is said they come from another dimension'. Plus, in the anime and the third film you actually see them in another dimension, when they kidnap the professor. So I've always thought they have that ability.

Hope that helps you, and good luck in your story. :)
 
Thanks purple_drake. My friend said he knew it was definitely Deoxys, but I'm not sure that is the one. It could be Unown, come to think of it. Beforehand, I thought it was Celebi or Palkia, but I'm not really sure on the individual powers of each Pokemon.

The Dimension Pokemon is Giratina. "A Pokemon that is said to live in a world on the reverse side of ours. It appears in an ancient cemetary." That's what the Pokedex says. Celebi travels through Time. I suppose Unown could travel through the dimensions as well, though.
 
The pokédex has a similar entry on Haunter, I believe. "Because of its ability to slip through block walls, it is said that it came from another dimension.". It's stuck in my head since that text was printed on the first TCG card I've ever owned. xD

As for the Unown...well, I have my own theories, but they are known for mysterious powers of all kinds, so they can be explained, I think. ^^
 
Okay, I've reached a split between two decisions regarding Biohazard, but I'd like to know from the few people who were reading it which of the two would be better, both though would require me to have the original thread closed. Now, before I PM Hanako to ask her to close it, I'd like to know if it'd be a better choice to go and revise what I've got so far and then repost it in a few weeks or have the current thread closed so I can start posting another fic involving another of my legendary fakemon that's supposed to be the rival of the one in Biohazard, but come back to Biohazard later on after that fic's complete. Personally, I'm leaning towards revising Biohazard so it's not so...how shall I put it?...weak. But, I'd like an opinion on these ideas for it before I do anything else...okay...?

I'd prefer the revising instead.
 
Hola Griff. I'm off to read chapter 4. (by the time i'm up to 13 you'll be on chapter 21)
 
Griff, are you some sort of machine, designed to make a miracle happen?

Yours is probably the best story I've ever read. I know that my reviews are a bit repetative, but it fits here. The plot is great, I like the idea of the split. The way you portray personalities is better than most bestselling authors. I particularly like Daedalus, what an accomplishment.

Though there are one or two grammatical errors, they do nothing to tarnish the story. It's also quite believable, because I know people who wallow in self pity like that (myself :) )

It's also much longer than many stories out there, but all of it is relevant to the story, not just waffle. You will achieve greatness Griff.

Now to get my eyes fixed from reading that story for the past six hours.
 
Skunter, I would go with revising your work. If you aren't quite satisfied with your writing, then it's all right to go back and rework it until you are satisfied. Just let me know when you want the first thread to be closed.

Ah, I know all about revisions. I'm never going to get around to posting my Pokemon fanfiction. I'm up to eight different versions that I'm not happy with. :<

Griff, it does seem like you posted this new chapter too fast. I remember sitting on my couch Wednesday night, since I had the night off from work, reading that chapter. But ah well, I'll review this one as well, since I have no school for the rest of the week! ^^
 
*Scratches back of head* heh, thanks [insert low self-esteem/modesty here]

Yeah, I'm also thinking that I posted it too fast, but for some reason I wanted to post it before these 3 projects (plus 1 assignment) *runs to do*

Ah, once a week isn't so bad. Twice a week might be a little bit better, but I usually (when I get off my lazy butt to actually type) post a chapter a week. I know a really good writer who (used to, now she posts more like twice a month...) posted like three new chapters a week. This was during summer, but still the chapters were very good. If I get on a roll and have more than one chapter done in a week I'll save it. Often times my readers will get mad if I don't post a chapter a week, so it's nice to have a reserve chapter so I don't have to worry.

I was a writing MACHINE in the summer! There's like, nothing to do so I just write... and write... and write. Pumpin' out like three chapters a week. Now with school here, it's more like once every two weeks (probably three this time around, due to mid-terms).
 
I guess I'm just of the camp of letting the readers get some time to review. If you keep pumping out chapters just because you have free time, it doesn't mean that your readers have enough time to review. Besides, you should let the chapter stew for a while before posting, to make sure it's up to snuff.

Or perhaps I'm just bitter from the fact that I have two six-page reports due, I'm behind on my NaNo, and I have thirty hours to work this week. =p
