    Pokémon Kraken's Grasp

    Just a typo, oops. Fixed now. Thanks for the reviews!

    Pokémon Pokémon Rebirth 2

    Hey! I'm here to review Chapter 1 for Catnip. First off, I was a bit worried that this being the sequel to a story I've never read would mean that I would be lost, but I suppose I followed along fine. Mostly I just didn't know the weight around certain things, like whatever put Daisuke in a...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    Oh, yeah, it's basically what people use for the magic that explains how Pokémon moves work. This particular reference, though, I should remove, as I've since chosen a different meaning for "aura" in the HHverse. Thanks for catching it! Another thing I can explain... you see, when I first wrote...

    Pokémon The Bringer (New)
    Threadmarks: Chapter Eighteen - Visitors, Part One

    Hi everyone! This is another backlog chapter. I haven't actually made written progress since the previous chapter upload, but there has been outline progress. Hopefully I can continue an every-few-weeks pace with this story until the end. No guarantees, though, since I do also have the recently...

    Language Fun

    @Goolix I'm not good at identifying different dialects, but Ievan Polkka, according to Finnish Wikipedia, is in North Savonian dialect. It's also a folk song, so not originally "by" Loituma but rather their performance of it is the most well known. Also, I may be able to answer the Swedish...

    Pokémon White Swan, Black Swan

    Heeere for the exchange! Chapter 4, for everyone else reading. This visual is really cool. A police station with grotesques. Feels urban fantasy core almost, even if I'm sure there must be real places like this. The mention of extensive self defense classes is a surprise tool that will help us...

    Pokémon Just a Normal Day

    Hey, back for Catnip. Read Chapter 4. Here are some thoughts: The beginning definitely had me wondering where it was going or what it had to do with the story, but the reveal that the unnamed Pidgey was Perry made it make sense. Although it was a bit odd to me that we were getting an...

    Original Cor Daemonis

    It's honestly super funny how much this story's setup sounds like it's got to do with Hazbin Hotel when my experience with that show is restricted to "watched five minutes and got bored". The prison escorts are actually stated to be angels, if you meant those guys. Lmao at the implication that...

    Blitz 2025: Self-Promo and Review Exchange Thread

    Posting to say that everything in this except Hunter, Haunted is fair game for Week 4 bonus points!

    Threadmarks: Part Six (Finale)

    Well, it's finally here. The final part of Kraken's Grasp. If you're on the Discord, you may have heard me voice my difficulties and grievances with the ending, and indeed, I am still unsatisfied with it. I'll talk a bit more about it under a spoiler after the chapter. Content warning for...

    Original The Gape (Oneshot)

    @Goolix Thank you so much for the read and review! I'm super glad that the connection between the protagonist's isolation and his transformation came through, even if it took a second read. I didn't actually end up thinking too much about the food element, since the starvation was mostly there...

    Pokémon Free to a Loving Home (2023 contest one-shot)

    Hey! Was looking for oneshots to review for Blitz, and found this in the self-promo thread. While I don't think I have enough thoughts for a proper review, I wanted to leave some feedback anyway. Basically, I really liked this, and I think you're maybe being too hard on yourself regarding it. I...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    It sounds like a stretch, but the idea is that, from the point of Red putting on the mask, Joanna gained the ability to give Red hallucinations (which ghosts have kind of semi-control over, being able to prompt them and then the host's mind coloring in the blanks save for the parts the ghost...

    Pokémon NEO-A-LIFE

    Very late to Chapter 6 because my brain has been empty regarding it, but let me try my best: Porygon is adorable. A bona fide scrunkly. I would die for Porygon. Also, really :eyes:-ing at Porygon's code being old meaning that it's more like a Gen I Pokemon in both appearance and moveset and...

    Pokémon Fixed Paths

    Hey! Here for Catnip. I've read the story and here are my thoughts. ...What does "it" refer to here? The second fledger? Is this colon meant to be here? typo It doesn't feel like N would be "bemused" here, since that means "confused". Did you mean "amusement"? Took me a while to parse the...

    Pokémon Victim (Oneshot)

    Thanks for the review, @Spiteful Murkrow ! Well, my intent was that Joanna assumes that Michi didn't see her and that she could have only known she was there through a different sense, but thinking about it more now, this isn't very well communicated. I may revise this. HHverse has different...

    Hey all, here's the fifth and penultimate part of the story as scheduled. Content warning for gun violence, character death in flashback, police brutality and ambiguous Pokémon death. Enjoy! --- Part Five --- Like before, Mr Fortin was waiting for Clarisse once she arrived at the facility...

    Pokémon Victim (Oneshot)

    Thanks so much for the review! I can explain this. "Sunlight filtered through their evergreen branches" is not meant to be a complete sentence with "filtered" as a predicate - rather, "filtered" is a participal adjective here. If it were a complete sentence, it would be "There is sunlight...
