    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    These were some really fun chapters. The use of dual POV here pulls massive weight for the story and I love it (ignoring the bit that I guess everyone in this world keeps incredibly detailed diaries/journals?? heh). Seeing first Gentleman trying to enact his plans and his own reactions to it...

    Pokémon Drowning

    Man these were some intense four chapters. I lied I definitely didn't read 37 before so whew... Going back to get Claydol, and then the entire sequence with encountering Matt and Tabitha again, and Tabitha laying the beating on Matt (shoulda killed him smh). I do sort of have a small hangup...

    Pokémon NEO-A-LIFE

    Man these two chapters were such a delight, really building up to the big moment very effectively. Constantly impressed at the way you manage to paint such an interesting and effective picture of the pokemon world for adults, and how pokemon factor into every day life. The way all the charaters...

    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    Oohh Okay. See I couldn't remember how long ago he became champion bc if it was like... 3-4 years ago that would make the kid like 5. So idk what counts as like, legally smart enough to do TCG but I'd be surprised if he were old enough to do it reliably at 5. But it turns out I am terrible at...

    Pokémon Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Quenched Torch

    I planned to read jsut one chapter but I ended up blowing through three because I got really interested in the situation and the prose read nice and smooth for me. This borrows from some classic PMD tropes, which I love, but again spins on it with some really unusual stuff, starting with putting...

    Pokémon Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Dual Wills

    Chapters 1 & 2 Line by line: A good start! I am a sucker for classic elements in stories, especially PMD. I know some people might lament the use of Riolu and amnesia and the 'washed up on the beach' scene. But I love it. Also the circumstances and worldbuilding and setup prove that there's...

    Pokémon A King's Journey

    I've had my eye on this fic for aaaggeeesss so now is a good time as any Yesss what a grand idea and a fun experiement! I love ideas that sound a tad crack-ish but are played straight and isekai-ing Godzilla into pokemon sounds awesome (my other fav fic isekai's a velociraptor from JW into...

    Pokémon Will Somebody Stop These Kids?

    What a great opening paragraph. Captures the fics tone, communicates Derek's character, and sets up a taste of his Issues so effectively, I love it. Mentally noting this. Love this, such a human and natural reaction. Poor Derek Of course not!! Three children with the equivalent of toddler...

    Pokémon International Celebrity Ruins Everything

    Excited to dig into a new fic, this concept sounds particularly fun! Don't mind me, I will be making some playful jabs at characters and sarcasm as well as commentary. I have to say, one chapter in an I am hooked. I think a first chapters job is to have enough of some intrigue to capture the...

    Blitz 2025: Hype and Rec Thread

    Personal rec: @Tango 's TCG Doduo Adventures What do you get when you take the idea of a Let's Play, a novelization, and a diary fic then blend that all up with a base of the Gameboy TCG game, then as a dash of Doduo and a lot of Sycther? You get a fantastic game-fic that takes the "world"...

    Pokémon Blood is Thicker Than Poison
    Threadmarks: Memories [Flashfic]

    Memories Drake’s strongest memory as a child isn’t running away. It isn’t coming home to find his family gone. Those are strong, yes, but not the clearest. No, the clearest is a stomach knotting with hunger, a dusty street corner and yet another empty trashcan. What he remembers most is kind...

    Pokémon Blood is Thicker Than Poison
    Threadmarks: Their Loss [Flashfic]

    Their Loss They couldn’t leave if they couldn’t find him. He’d done it before. Ran away. Spent two nights holed up between two dumpsters in an alley until he ran out of granola bars and water bottles he snatched from the nearby convenience store, and the owner chased him out. His parents had...

    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    Man this chapter was spiicccyyyyyy. This is the kind of drama I live for. The tension, the rapidly escalating jerk behaviour, the set ups. Isaac is absolutely heinous and despicable in my eyes now. Using his child as a shield and manipulation device, lying, trying to set up Gentleman. It's...

    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    Sorry for taking so long! Here's two chapters and if work permits I hope to get a third out 9 makes for a pretty amusing comedic interlude. I feel like there's some interesting tidbits of world stuff here about gambling and probability and the psychic club. I am very intrigued to see how...

    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    I have to say, I really enjoyed the battle this chapter. Cheating/rigging aside, I liked reading it and seeing how their back and forth evolved and how he played his hand. Also we're getting seeds of more worldbuilding, like learning that UBI is a thing here and they have a benevolent (?) AI...

    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    Man this chapter was a rough read (not like, writing wise, just story-wise). Gentleman gets his first taste of repeated losses at the Fire Club, but on top of that we get the reveal that coinflips are controlled by Bill Inc., a company that can affect the odds... and apparently you can pay to...

    Pokémon TCG2: Doduo Adventures - Book One: TCG Island

    Swooping in with a nice chunky reviewing to make up for being slower than I'd like. Overally I really enjoyed this detour. Drunks rambling is always good for comedy, and it brings in some nice character moments too, with gentleman reminiscing about his lost love and lost opportunity, and...
