[url=http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/164/a/c/acdfe9af34c3d6c36dabba85fd6f33a2-d3iv0t3.png]Felix's[/url] mother was calling from downstairs. He was late for the first day of the rest of his life. Today was the grand opening of the long anticipated Oryu League Challenge, and Oryu's own Professors, Sukio and Fukio Leiko were presenting Trainers with their own Pokemon to journey with. "[i]Thud[/i]!" Felix fell out of his bed from the sheer sound of his mothers voice. He looked at his clock. It read 9:00. "[i]No, it's already started![/i]" He sprinted down the stairs, struggling to get his shirt on with his Backpack in his hand. He jumped the last few steps and landed heavily. A bowl of cereal and a glass of milk laid on the table for him. His mind was in panic mode. He gulped the milk in one go, and ran out the door without a word of thanks. A few blocks from his house, a huge commotion was going on. a voice sounded out from the cheers, "Sora, may you and your newly received Bluser have a great journey together!" Felix's heart leapt into his throat. He would miss his chance. He arrived just in time. There were 2 Pokemon standing in front of the Leiko Twins. The Fire-Type Carbonet, and the water type Caracolen. A boy with blue hair was looking at them, sizing them up. Felix ran up to the Professors and said, "Sorry I'm late, but I came here to choose a Pokemon and start my journey." He pointed to Carbonet. "May I please have-" "I choose Carbonet." said the boy in the blue hair. Felix spun on his heals. "Hey, I chose him!" "I was here first... kid." he added after a second of silence. Felix was not overly impressed by how he was addressed "kid". "First come first serve." said Sukio as he handed the boy Carbonet, a Pokeball, and a Pokedex. "But you can have Caracolen." Felix looked at Caracolen. A blank, distorted face looked back at him. "Fine..." Felix said with regret. He was handed a Pokeball and Pokedex as well as his new Pokemon. He looked over and saw the boy in blue. "Hey, you! What's your name?" "[url=http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs37/f/2008/256/7/0/rextheone_ID_by_rextheone.png]Tyson[/url]" he replied. Let's battle!" shouted Felix. ~Later~ "OK, this will be a 1 on 1 battle." said Fukio. "Obviously..." said Tyson quietly. Felix's voice was full of revenge when he said, "GO! Caracolen!" "Go. Carbonet!" "Go Carbonet, use Tackle!" "Counter it with Pound Caracolen!" They collided mid-air and their powers were at even strength. "Use Sand Attack!" shouted Tyson as Felix shouted "Leer!". The attacks hit their marks and both Pokemon lost their edge. "Hmm. Use Pound on the ground!" Caracolen hit the ground with it's tail and the ground started to shake. Dust flew into Carbonet's eyes. Now jump and use Pound! It hit Carbonet square on the head. "Grr. I'll show you! Use Tackle repeatadly!" Carbonet dashed at Caracolen and sent it fyling. It ran behind Caracolen and barely let it touch the ground before Tackle struck again. This went on for a couple more hits, then Carbonet stopped, exhausted. "Cara-colen." Felix half-whispered as it collapsed onto the rocky ground. "Caracolen is unable to battle any longer! Carbonet wins, and Tyson is victorious!" Both trainers returned their Pokemon to their Pokeballs. "I knew I should've got Carbonet..." ~Later~ "Felix, dinner's ready!" Felix walked down the stairs, much slower than he did this morning. "Did you make any new friends today Felix?" "No." he replied stubbornly. "And my Pokemon isn't that great either." His mother scolded at the sound of this. "Just be thankful you have one. I was never so lucky as to have one. You will learn to love your Pokemon. Besides, you haven't even trained it at all, so it is not truly your own yet." "Yeah." he said. ~Later~ "[i]Click[/i]" Felix clicked off his lamp. "Goodnight Caracolen." No sound came from his Pokeball. He clicked it and nothing came out. "CARACOLEN!?!?!"

Phantom Roxas Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 [spoiler=17 Again][color=#FFD700]Where did he go?[/color] [color=#008080]I simply went to visit another universe.[/color] [color=#8B4513]Wow, this guy can time travel?[/color] [color=#008080]That is possible, Yumi, but "universe" simply refers to space, not time. However, you're appearance is well-timed, as I was looking for you next. You see, Dan was just helping me with reading a fanfic. It is time for you to help me.[/color] [color=#FFD700]Can I help you again?[/color] [color=#008080]You were quite useful, unlike the last person I just asked for assistance, so you may do so. However, as you each are fans of... Duel Monsters, I am curious as to your familiarity with the Pokémon franchise.[/color] [color=#8B4513]POKEMANZ!?[/color] [color="#FFD700"]COUNT US IN![/color] [color=#008080]Well now, that was a strong response. The story is [/color][url="http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/260782-pokemon-path-of-anarchy/"][color=#008080]"Pokemon: Path of Anarchy"[/color][/url][color=#008080] by shelds9. Naturally, we have someone who is unaware of the existence of tildes and usernames that aren't just a random string of letters and numbers, that is unimportant.[/color] [color=#ffd700]Oh great, this guy has a "Plot" spoiler.[/color] [i]Welcome to the Oryu Region![/i] [color=#ffd700]Is that supposed to based on the Japanese phrase for "King Dragon"?[/color] [color=#008080]That is not the author's fault. shelds9 is writing this story based on a PokéDex created by an artist from DeviantART, and received explicit permission to do so. There's nothing wrong with that, and it admittedly sounds rather interesting.[/color] [i]The Oryu Region has always been blocked off to the public for many years, but now, it is hosting it's own League Challenge![/i] [color=#8b4513]They just felt like doing this after being blocked off from the public for so long? Cool![/color] [i]This peaceful land is home to 300 never before seen rare Pokemon where only Pokemon from the Oryu Region can be found!! There are 3 Pokemon that rule and command all of these Pokemon.[/i] [color=#008080]Is it really that much to ask for people to just [i]write[/i] numbers? They can be spelled, you know.[/color] [i]Their names are Evangel and Adangel and Ninfella.[/i] [color=#8b4513]Is Ninfella not supposed to have her name match up with Evangel and Adangel?[/color] [color=#008080]Indeed. Evangel and Adangel seem to be the queen and king among the region's Pokémon, so Ninfella is presumably the equivalent of the princess. Ordinarily, this would be a bad thing because this information is only available on the off-site PokéDex, but we can already be certain of it being revealed over the course of the story, thus making it not as bad.[/color] [i]There are also 2 other Legendary Trio's in Oryu. The Warrior Trio, and the Sacred Trio.[/i] [color=#008080]This could easily be made into one single, preferably using a colon, but so far you seem to be off to a good start.[/color] [i]The Oryu League will have many strong challengers, so it is sure to be a treat![/i] [color=#8b4513]Wow, that line made me really excited for this![/color] [i][url="http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs42/i/2009/136/0/3/POKEDEX_ORYU_by_shinyscyther.jpg"]http://fc03.devianta...hinyscyther.jpg[/url][/i] [color=#008080]Finally, shelds9 provides us with the basis for this story. Naturally, as this PokéDex is larger than the first two generations combined, we won't bother with this. Following this, shelds9 has provided us with information on the professors, Gym Leaders, and the Elite Four.[/color] [color=#ffd700]Why is every character under a different spoiler?[/color] [color=#8b4513]There's only a link under each one...[/color] [color=#ffd700]All it does is link to a picture![/color] [color=#8b4513]You should have just posted each picture, not give us a link [i]to[/i] the pictures.[/color] [color=#008080]Oh, be quiet. It's not like these characters won't all show up later anyway. At least he had enough decency to not give out every detail about the characters here.[/color] [color=#008080]Afterwards, shelds9 provides us with a map of the region, but I'm just going to skip this because it's simply not worth bringing up and serves as the last thing stopping us from actually proceeding to Chapter 1. Now we can finally begin this story.[/color] [i]"[b][i]FELIX[/i][/b]!?"[/i] [color=#008080]Bolded text indicates text that was initially italicized.[/color] [i][url="http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/164/a/c/acdfe9af34c3d6c36dabba85fd6f33a2-d3iv0t3.png"]Felix's[/url] mother was calling from downstairs.[/i] [color=#ffd700]Is there going to a link every time someone important shows up? Can't you just put this picture somewhere in chapter characters.[/color] [color=#8b4513]I'm not going to click on the link. Can you just tell me what Felix looks like?[/color] [i]He was late for the first day of the rest of his life.[/i] [color=#8b4513]That happens to me all the time.[/color] [color=#008080]Because authors write it all the time. I think the cliché of being late has been firmly established, but "for the first day of the rest of his life?" Doesn't that just seem awkwardly phrased to you? Surely "for the the first time in his life" would have made more sense?[/color] [i]Today was the grand opening of the long anticipated Oryu League Challenge, and Oryu's own Professors, Sukio and Fukio Leiko were presenting Trainers with their own Pokemon to journey with.[/i] [color=#008080]I'm aware that these journeys promote the thrill of competition, but here it seems to come across as a race. No matter. The plot seems decent enough as it is.[/color] [color=#ffd700]You seem a lot more lenient than when we reviewed that Strike of the Heavens story, Votek.[/color] [color=#008080]In retrospect, I was rather harsh on that story, but it simply rehashed the beginning of 5D's. This story seems to just use a very common beginning for adventure stories, which is more acceptable than blatantly ripping off a specific story.[/color] [i]"[b][i]Thud[/i][/b]!" Felix fell out of his bed from the sheer sound of his mothers voice. He looked at his clock. It read 9:00. "[b][i]No, it's already started![/i][/b]"[/i] [color=#8b4513]9:00 sounds a bit too early, don't you think?[/color] [color=#008080]If the event started in the afternoon and Felix had only just then woken up, that would be more ridiculous. 9:00 isn't that early, and if anyone wanted to prepare, they should be ready for a 9:00 starting time, although the implication is that it started before then.[/color] [color=#ffd700]Why are people so excited for events like these but don't bother to be awake and ready on time?[/color] [i]He sprinted down the stairs, struggling to get his shirt on with his Backpack in his hand. He jumped the last few steps and landed heavily.[/i] [color=#008080]Was it really necessary to do that?[/color] [i]A bowl of cereal and a glass of milk laid on the table for him. His mind was in panic mode. He gulped the milk in one go, and ran out the door without a word of thanks.[/i] [color=#8b4513]Wow, how ungrateful.[/color] [i]A few blocks from his house, a huge commotion was going on. a voice sounded out from the cheers, "Sora, may you and your newly received Bluser have a great journey together!"[/i] [color=#ffd700]"Newly received?" Who even [i]talks[/i] like that?[/color] [i]Felix's heart leapt into his throat. He would miss his chance. He arrived just in time. There were 2 Pokemon standing in front of the Leiko Twins. The Fire-Type Carbonet, and the water type Caracolen.[/i] [color=#008080]Has it really never occurred to the professors to get multiples of each starter? Had so many people already come that there were just these two left, or did Sora just claim the only Bluser?[/color] [color=#ffd700]Caracolen is tenth in the PokéDex. Shouldn't that Turboty Pokémon be the Water starter?[/color] [i]A boy with blue hair was looking at them, sizing them up. Felix ran up to the Professors and said, "Sorry I'm late, but I came here to choose a Pokemon and start my journey." He pointed to Carbonet. "May I please have-" "I choose Carbonet." said the boy in the blue hair. Felix spun on his heals. "Hey, I chose him!"[/i] [color=#008080]Felix, despite having blue hair as his character image shows, is in fact not the boy with blue hair that has yet to be named. As such, you have to put Felix's "Hey, I chose him!" on the following line.[/color] [i]"I was here first... kid." he added after a second of silence. Felix was not overly impressed by how he was addressed "kid".[/i] [color=#ffd700]Isn't he supposed to be a boy? Why would be call Felix a kid if he's also won?[/color] [i]"First come first serve." said Sukio as he handed the boy Carbonet, a Pokeball, and a Pokedex. "But you can have Caracolen." Felix looked at Caracolen. A blank, distorted face looked back at him.[/i] [color=#ffd700]Maybe if Sukio remembered what the Water starter is supposed to be, that wouldn't be the case.[/color] [color=#008080]"Fine..." Felix said with regret.[/color] [color=#8b4513]Hey, cheer up! Caracolen is a Water type, so it looks like you actually got the better option out of what was left![/color] [i]He was handed a Pokeball and Pokedex as well as his new Pokemon. He looked over and saw the boy in blue. "Hey, you! What's your name?"[/i] [i]"[url="http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs37/f/2008/256/7/0/rextheone_ID_by_rextheone.png"]Tyson[/url]" he replied.[/i] [color=#008080]That hardly looks like a mere boy. "Young man" would be more accurate, and it would explain why he can refer to Felix as a kid without being a hypocrite. Naturally, his attitude and appearance indicate that he is a typical rival. I'm surprised someone with an affinity for blue who has a cold attitude decided to go with the cute animal.[/color] [color=#8b4513]Gary Oak. Your argument is [i]invalid[/i].[/color] [i]Let's battle!" shouted Felix.[/i] [color=#008080]Let me recap what has happened so far. Felix is late to an important event that he was certainly aware of when it should begin, and upon discovering only two starters were left precisely because he was late, he is denied the starter he wanted, and is depressed that he ends up with the starter that has a type advantage.[/color] [color=#008080]Now let us look at things from Tyson's perspective. From what we can see, he was already at the event, carefully judging the two starters left. Upon deciding that the one with the weaker type that contradicted his theme of the color blue was better suited for him, he is yelled at by a kid who claims that he wanted the very same starter. While Tyson could simply be generous and give the brat Carbonet, he cites the fact that he was first, and thus on time, which is more than enough to justify why he should be granted Carbonet instead of the boy who was too busy sleeping instead of considering that he must be on time as well. As a result of Tyson being entirely in the right, Felix describes to shout in the middle of the lab that he would like to battle Tyson.[/color] [color=#008080]Can you guess who I want to win?[/color] [i]~Later~ "OK, this will be a 1 on 1 battle." said Fukio. "Obviously..." said Tyson quietly.[/i] [color=#008080]And Tyson continues to prove that he has little tolerance for idiocy. I will definitely seek his assistance when his time comes.[/color] [color=#8b4513]W[/color][color=#ffd700]a[/color][color=#8b4513]i[/color][color=#ffd700]t[/color][color=#8b4513], [/color][color=#ffd700]w[/color][color=#8b4513]h[/color][color=#ffd700]a[/color][color=#8b4513]t[/color][color=#ffd700]?[/color] [i]Felix's voice was full of revenge when he said, "GO! Caracolen!" "Go. Carbonet!"[/i] [color=#ffd700]Isn't Felix completely aware that Caracolen knows everything he's saying? He's making a terrible first impression to his new partner.[/color] [i]"Go Carbonet, use Tackle!" "Counter it with Pound Caracolen!" They collided mid-air and their powers were at even strength. "Use Sand Attack!" shouted Tyson as Felix shouted "Leer!". The attacks hit their marks and both Pokemon lost their edge.[/i] [color=#8b4513]Why is it that so much of the dialogue takes place on the same line?[/color] [i]"Hmm. Use Pound on the ground!" Caracolen hit the ground with it's tail and the ground started to shake. Dust flew into Carbonet's eyes. Now jump and use Pound! It hit Carbonet square on the head.[/i] [color=#8b4513]Felix forgot to use quotation marks, so doesn't that mean that he didn't really give a command?[/color] [color=#008080]Now that's just taking things are little too far.[/color] [i]"Grr. I'll show you! Use Tackle repeatadly!" Carbonet dashed at Caracolen and sent it fyling. It ran behind Caracolen and barely let it touch the ground before Tackle struck again. This went on for a couple more hits, then Carbonet stopped, exhausted.[/i] [i]"Cara-colen." Felix half-whispered as it collapsed onto the rocky ground.[/i] [color=#8b4513]Well, at least Felix is showing some care for his Caracolen.[/color] [i]"Caracolen is unable to battle any longer! Carbonet wins, and Tyson is victorious!" Both trainers returned their Pokemon to their Pokeballs. "I knew I should've got Carbonet..."[/i] [color=#8b4513][/color] [color=#ffd700][/color] [color="#008080"]Like my guests, I am a loss for words, but I shall try and explain. As I said, Felix did not deserve Carbonet because he lacked the decency to show up on time. Now that his Pokémon, despite having a type advantage, has lost to Carbonet, does he try to console his partner for losing? No. Instead he opts to criticize his partner for losing and laments the fact that he didn't get a Pokémon that he did not deserve to get in the first place, even though t[/color][color=#008080]he Pokémon he did end up getting shouldn't have been an option in the first place because it shouldn't be one of the starters.[/color] [color=#ffd700]Wait, I looked at the two professors' profiles, and it looks like they each give away different Pokémon. Caracolen is indeed a starter option, but only from Fukio. Sukio gives away Carbonet, which remained true here.[/color] [color=#008080]So, two different professors that each give away three Pokémon in the same town?[/color] [color=#ffd700]Looks like it, even though the profiles of the professors say that they hail from different towns.[/color] [color=#008080]I am rather curious how the creator of this PokéDex feels once he reads this story.[/color] [color=#8b4513]shelds9, have you seen the anime? I would expect this kind of behavior from Paul.[/color] [i]~Later~[/i] [color=#008080]Unnecessary. A simple paragraph break would be enough to imply that narrative shifted to a later point in time.[/color] [i]"Felix, dinner's ready!" Felix walked down the stairs, much slower than he did this morning. "Did you make any new friends today Felix?" "No." he replied stubbornly. "And my Pokemon isn't that great either."[/i] [color=#8b4513]You know, talking like that isn't going to make you any friends.[/color] [i]His mother scolded at the sound of this. "Just be thankful you have one. I was never so lucky as to have one. You will learn to love your Pokemon. Besides, you haven't even trained it at all, so it is not truly your own yet."[/i] [color=#008080]Finally, these stories include a character who addresses the protagonist's lack of likability.[/color] [i]"Yeah." he said.[/i] [color=#ffd700]Urgh. Can we cut to something exciting already?[/color] [i]~Later~[/i] [color=#8b4513]Really? I thought we were going to cut to earlier.[/color] [i]"[b][i]Click[/i][/b]" Felix clicked off his lamp.[/i] [color=#008080]Then what was the point of writing "'Click'"?[/color] [i]"Goodnight Caracolen." No sound came from his Pokeball. He clicked it and nothing came out. "CARACOLEN!?!?!"[/i] [color=#008080]I'll assume that Caracolen ran away because Felix is an awful trainer. Such an assumption allows me to safely end this story here.[/color] [color=#ffd700]I can't believe I just read that.[/color] [color=#8b4513]I thought it was okay.[/color] [color="#008080"]Only at first. The story had the first impression of being a very standard story, but then we learned more about Felix. He's clearly an unlikable, self-righteous ingrate, and this story is meant to focus on him. Perhaps future stories will establish him connecting with Caracolan, but Felix earns no sympathy at all here, with Tyson minding his own business until Felix bothers him, and Felix's mom, who has no signs of being an abusive parent, properly scolds her son.[/color] [color=#ffd700]I don't want to follow a story that focuses on such a brat. It makes the story boring, and I doubt that however he is developed as sympathetic will be written realistically.[/color] [color=#8b4513]Well, I guess you guys are right.[/color] [color=#008080]I shall be taking my leave now Yumi, you were... adequate in this review, but rest assured, I will call upon you again.[/color] [color=#8b4513]Thanks, I guess.[/color] [color=#ffd700]Are you going to disappear and reappear two seconds later?[/color] [color=#008080]Not at all. This time, I shall give you more time without my presence. I believe that you'll be prepared for when I appear to you once more.[/color][/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
