    Pokémon Into Light (2022 Contest Oneshot)

    Thank you for the review! I think I remember specifically looking this up while writing and read that corpses do sink (since you and I float only because we have air in our lungs), but thinking about it now, I think that might only go for fresh corpses. They probably do float up to the surface...

    Pokémon mountains will never [TR 2023 Oneshot]

    Hey! Here for Catnip. Let's get to it. So the first thing that I noticed in this story when I started reading is that the opening scene is a bit hard to visualize, mainly with regard to the weapon. The weapon is first explicitly mentioned being present at this part: Which is quite a ways into...

    Pokémon A Day at Lawrence Pokémon Sanctuary (2024 Contest Oneshot)

    Hey there! The results of the 2024 Oneshot Contest, its theme "Magical but Mundane", are up, so posting the entries to the forum is fair game. This was my entry. I don't think it's among the better stuff I've written, but it seems that the judges liked it. I do also like it myself, just maybe...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    I think it's been quite some time since you read the first chapter, so I don't blame you for forgetting that there were talking pokémon in it. But yeah, pokémon can learn to talk in this universe. This actually receives an indirect retroactive explanation in The Bringer: there are talismans in...

    Pokémon The Champion's Illusion

    Original Sheepskin

    hey there! this is a new original project ive been working on for a while. so far ive only written a pilot chapter because it would have taken years to get anything out if i made myself plan out the whole thing before writing. the purpose of this "pilot" is what youre probably thinking of when...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    I think I may have old backup copies tucked somewhere, and some sites do have previous versions up, but I haven't specifically tried to preserve the older versions. They don't really have anything in them that I'd hate to lose. The insanity plea thing may have been some kind of spitballing I...

    Pokémon What the Gods Gave Me

    Hey there! I'm returning to this fic for Catnip. I read Chapter 2, and since that was pretty short, I read Chapter 3 as well. Here are my thoughts. Stray space at the start of this line of dialogue. Extra "i" in "milliseconds". Was the line of dialogue supposed to end in a period, or was the...

    Retrospective - KTK RP

    Thank you for running the game! Here are my thoughts. I thought the pace was good. In fact, had it gone faster, I probably wouldn't have been able to keep up. I enjoyed the events. I can't recall if I felt like any particular moments were slower or faster than the others. I really enjoyed the...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    Samson clapped his 'hands' together. "Well, whatever it was, I'm glad you're better now, Keldeo. And don't beat yourself up too hard about giving in to temptation. Something I was gonna say during the battle was that we're all fallible. But just because we can't necessarily keep to our ideals...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    Samson took the jabs with his arms, flinching with every pointed strike, but made no moves to strike back. "No," he said, staring the equine down. Samson could tell this attack meant business. His bruised arms quivered as he thought of the pain to come, but the certainty in the fact that he was...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    The strike came out of the blue. It hurt, but... definitely not as much as it would have a human. Samson wanted to tell Keldeo that he'd have them all stand down if he could help it, but the equine caught him off guard again with a kick in the stomach, squeezing the air out of his lungs...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    Oh, drat! That didn't do much of anything... Samson expected a revenge strike and hopped back, but it seemed that Keldeo got distracted by something else. He took the opportunity to leave the equine's vicinity. As the blood in his ears calmed a bit, he could think about Keldeo's words. He'd...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    The conversation moved on before Samson could get a word in, but he wanted to speak his mind aloud for his own sake. "I act according to my conscience and the teachings of Arceus. I don't care about 'honor' - I care about doing the right thing." Then the battle began. Samson quickly downed his...

    Errant Sword [KtK RP Thread; Mission 1]

    Samson listened to Keldeo and the others discuss honor with arms crossed, pensive. Honor. He remembered when he was younger - when his father had taught him about honor. How he should always fight fair because that's what a real man did. He'd stuck to that advice in the scuffles he'd gotten...
