    Pokémon PMD: Flowerbeds

    I'm apparently a glutton for punishment. Or I just want a little custom vulpix sprite. Either way, fuck it. We ball. 32 -C'mon, Ozzy. You can tell Finch that Swift doesn't like you because daddy issues. -Oswald's priorities are all over the place that he's emblematic of that old "I have no idea...

    Pokémon PMD: Flowerbeds

    Merry blitzmas! Disclaimer: My blitz reviews are stream of consciousness styled rambles. Let me know if you have any questions. Since this is going chapter by chapter of these fairly old chapters I'm probably going to focus mostly on the plot. And may not cover that many of them, since a decent...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    27 -As a reader, I'm not sure I buy Sophia's claim of Irune caring for the whole team. I could maybe see it with Lyle since they'd had the most time together and it seems like they've mutually comforted one another a couple of times. And I think she maybe had one moment with Dalton? But still...

    Pokémon Places We Call Home

    This sounds like the name of a group you'd see in Paper Mario. Made up entirely of Snifits. I suppose I should've expected a few dogs. Another zor— okay, yeah, definitely another zoroark. The first half of this appears to be following up on the previous interlude, which IIRC involved a treecko...

    Blitz 2024: Hype and Rec Thread

    Week 1 rec is undoubtedly preaching to the choir. It's @Persephone's Broken Things. I recall reading its first incarnation, though I only had vague recollections of some of the characters and that there was a reality show backdrop to the trainer journey through Alola. The new version has done...

    Pokémon Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Students of Moonlight

    Narrator: They will go horribly wrong. She won't come back home. Y'know, what if a really large pokémon wants to live in this castle? If it was made for humans, they're out of luck. Okay, so. If you want to show someone cutting themselves off, or going on a different train of thought...

    Gotta Write ‘Em All! A Written Role Call

    I'm just going to stick to prominent characters I've used in Guiding Light and Path of Valor. I probably missed a few here and there, but I didn't want this taking me forever.

    Pokémon Do Psychic Cats Dream of Electric Sheep?

    Waaaaaaaaaaaait a tic. Isn't that just— Yeah, okay, this is the anime version of the Rescue Team plopped into the gameverse. I guess I took the name and applied it to the duo from the Rescue Team manga, so I'll let you off the hook for the royalties. A team of all cats? Wait. Okay, this has...

    Pokémon Broken Things

    So, I know I'd read the original version of this back in the day™. Don't think I ever touched the remake. Although V2 seems to have gotten much, much farther than the original. To where its word count is beating my current stuff. Ain't no way I'm getting through it in this style. And the...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    I'm only covering three chapters because [looks at chapter word count] good lord. 24 -The problem with trying to describe things people just inherently know the names of is that it's often done awkwardly. Case in point, it took me a second to realize you were describing the remains of an...

    Pokémon Pokemon: Legendary Adventures

    Okay, maybe I can actually get caught up this year. [looks at chapter word count and still sweats profusely] 25 -So there is an Iron Island "arc" and I'm guessing all the chapters that are Iron X delineate it because themed naming and whatnot. -Am I misremembering or wasn't there a fake suicune...

    Pokémon Pathways to Arcadia

    Now I'm just imagining all these demons look like Clive Rosfield. Thanks, FFXVI. Interesting way of going about Hidden Power. I do wonder if this was something you had planned for a while, back before Hidden Power got Thanos'd out of everyone's move sets and made exclusive to unown. Oh...

    Pokémon Do Psychic Cats Dream of Electric Sheep?

    Okay, time to get caught up for realz. 1-12 -The classic nightmare chapter start. I think this is an introduction to Dark Matter. It even messes with the formatting a little bit in what I can only assume is a nod to its aLTeRNAtiNG CaPs talking style. (One that's easier on the eyes, at least.)...

    Pokémon Places We Call Home

    Okay, time to get caught up. Again. 27 -Umbra continues to be a certified bitch™, as usual. -Very wise of these "explorers" to keep mentioning their lack of need for Haru and Nip. Definitely not motivating them to try and find a way out of the situation. -Y'know, the prose made it sound like...

    Pokémon Do Psychic Cats Dream of Electric Sheep?

    Merry blitzmas! Disclaimer: My blitz reviews are stream of consciousness styled rambles. Let me know if you have any questions. 1-6 (I feel like I'm shorthanding Ace Attorney case numbers here) -Do people even still have lawn flamingos in this day and age? -I'm willing to bet that, even with...

    Pokémon Rivers of Asphodel

    Merry blitzmas! Disclaimer: My blitz reviews are stream of consciousness styled rambles. Let me know if you have any questions. 1 -So we're going with song lyric chapter titles, eh? -Normally I'm not a big fan of jumping heads without scene breaks in third-person limited (which it seems like...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 103: Under the Influencer

    Chapter 103: Under the Influencer "So, um, I went over to Aeon Town. Like you asked." Hydreigon looked up from his half-eaten, oversized bowl of stew. The latias lying on a cushion across from him nervously fidgeted with her claws. "Oh, you did? Wow, that was fast!" Hydreigon spoke through...

    Blitz 2024: Hype and Rec Thread

    Hello, it is I, Amby. Here as per usual with my smattering of PMD fic recs for a crowd that's not always into PMD. :copyka: This Blitz, in particular, I want to give a special shoutout to @Namohysip's PMD: Hands of Creation. I have previously rec'd it and folks can read my reasoning here. Why...
