Hey, Iveechan! I'm glad to see you continuing this story. Cyclone is a fun character, and it felt like Fight or Flight left her at an interesting point to continue from, where she's just beginning to adjust to town life. As usual, Cyclone's personality comes through loud and clear here; I do...

This week I'd like to put in a good word for zion of arcadia's "Remember Not the Children", a trainerverse story about a kid who decides to run away from home with her trusty cubone partner. zion's always puts a lot of work into her prose, and it really shines here, with carefully-chosen details...

Hey, Josh! I was planning to review "What We Do For Our Children" this Blitz; wasn't expecting to end up here first! But the roulette made for a good excuse to take a look at "The Champions" instead. I'm really curious where this side-story fits in with the rest of Journey. Is Rykker a...

Hey, Fobbie! I enjoyed reading Once a Thief last year for Blitz, so I wanted to catch up on it again this year. There's a pretty solid run of chapters here that I missed out on--nice job keeping the updates coming, although I know they haven't been quite as frequent as you wanted. You've...

Back for chapters 4-6! It's nice to see Arian and Elvira get out a bit and start to uncover the broader world, although they're not quite ready to leave home yet. I enjoyed your notes on what inspiration you'd taken for the names of various places, as well as what your thoughts were when you...

I didn't really have a sense of direction or writing goals for 2021, but this year I think there are definitely some things I'd like to try to do! - Use regular sprints to make good progress on my fic. I had a decent groove down of doing a half hour sprint most nights, which was really helpful...

zion OT fic?! This one slipped under my radar when you first posted it, but I was excited to find it when I was going through W3-eligible fics. Very convenient that it ended up being a Roulette pick! I am really looking forward to this. The framing of this story as one being told from some...

Ahaha, that author's note at the end. It do be that sort of chapter, don't it? I think this chapter provides a nice amount of progression after the first one; here we see Ariana becoming cemented as their father's favorite and how Gemma has latched onto pokémon training as her hope for leaving...

We love to see MR. HISSER given pride of place, right where he belongs! idk if spoilers, so I'm going to be referring to Gemma as the narration does throughout my comments. I think giving this story a little more room to breathe is a good idea, and I look forward to seeing what you do with the...

Welcome to the forums! The news out of the anime has honestly been really inspiring recently--definitely a lot of opportunity for fic. I'm glad you're feeling excited about Pokémon again, and the stories you have in the works sound like a lot of fun. Look forward to reading them when you decide...

All right, Week 2 of Blitz has officially come to a close! Wonderful job, everybody--the reviews were flying thick and fast all this week, and I hope everyone got to check out a one-shot or two that they'd been meaning to read. In Week 3, the theme is hidden gems--you get a bonus for reviewing...

I definitely didn't get to read nearly as many one-shots as I wanted to this week. -_-; On the plus side, that means I can shout them all out without it getting ridiculous! "Curse" is a classic tragedy with a side of existential horror. A classic case of people making a series of...

I certainly remember this story, but I don't believe I've reviewed it before! It's a fun one--feels like a very Dragonfree one-shot to me. There's horror here, but I'm really more about the tragedy in this one, and I think it's well done! The two things that really make this fic for me are the...

Loved this one. It works really well both as a character study and for chewing on some fun ("fun"?) pokémon worldbuilding. The question of how we even recognize intelligence is obviously one of real-world concern as well as fictional, and one that humans have traditionally been bad at, so it's...
