From the start youre awakened to a dark world no one wishes to be a part of. destroying the fantasy and happiness we will have imagined a pokemon world to be like. Each chapter just makes you more and more sad. by chapter 6 you want to kill yourself and put the MC out of his misery. Nothing good happens, no bright light to hang on to for hope of a better tomorrow. Not an ounce of positivity. Just seems like a big excuse to do what you want and treat people like trash. Also zero interaction with humans cuz they all apparently suck and are all evil. lolol Just don't really see the point of such a story. I see such sadness on the news every day, no need to read it here too.
Greate book. It really takes the pokemon world to a new level of cruelty and shows how a guy without cheats survive. I have been searching for a novel where mc is without a cheat and any kind of mysterious background and amazing bloodline/genetics, just a simple normal person. Simply put, its excellent.
História impressionante desde o começo. Muito realista em comparação comum a outros títulos, atualmente sem nenhum sistema de ajuda. Tem muito potencial. Espero dessa incrível Fanfic de pokemon.
The pokemon fanfic genre is generally oversaturated and filled with similar troupes and ideas (and the very annoying colour potential system). However, This fanfic is a breath of fresh air with the mc character being more focused on the grim and dark tone. The characters so far seem to be well established and likeable. The pokemon choices themselves seems to be more unique than your usually cliche options. The authors experience with writing a past pokemon fanfic really shines here. However, the only major critique I can give is the update stability.
I like the premise of the story very much. It is well executed too. The only downside is that the author urgently needs an editor. His stories always have good ideas and good plot, but the grammar is his weak point. If you are not strict for grammar, and likes reading Pokemon fictions with weak-to-strong, poor-to-rich (or at least self-reliant), and taking advantage of common but useful pokemon, this is your story.
An interesting story with a good beginning and logical growth, although some things seem more than luck, the plot is a bit dark but it has its positive parts later. The entire plot so far revolves around his childhood, so it seems that the story will move slowly until he becomes an official coach.
I dont usually give 5 stars but you nailed it! This fic depicts a sense of realism in a fantasy world. The crule side of humanity that no one wants to admit. So far everything is great about the novel. Hopefully it does not get ruin by dlcking out harem or MC turning into a betta/Simp. keep up the good work!
Can you continue this story please, I like the realistic view of the Pokemon world and how he adventures/struggles through survives and thru ing
Plz update spacewolf fanfic it is soo good🙏 ................................................................................................................................................................................................

it's a nice darker, more criminal oriented FF. we will have to see where it goes, as of now I definitely recommend to read it.
Like the story, like the tone, like the universe, love the pokemon choice (Not a ralts, lucario, or generic dragon pokemon) overall love the book keep it up, you've got my stones all day long
Great start so far. Really liked His other pokemon fanfiction wish it would update Cant wait for more.
