Independent Reaction to my fanfic.

You guys never comment or vote in my polls, but I don't care. I never expected much reaction anyway, a lot of the chapters are really quickly typed up, I'm just doing this for the hell of it and because I've been seeding this crazy story since 2001. I've only advertised this fic at Serebii forums, and I'm known there for being a whiny bitch :p However, attention whore that I am, wanted an actual response to this shit I'm wasting my time on. This was on a *chan board I go to.

A stupid Pokemon fan fic I started writing since I just need to get this story out of my head. It's about 40% done. I don't care if it sucks or not because I'm fucking completing this so I can get it out of my head and move on with my life.

Features:

- A large cast of male Pokemon trainers getting involved in many shenanigans.
- Pikablu, with a backstory.
- Takes place alongside the Pokemon anime. Ash Ketchum's quest is going on at the same time as this story.
- Team Rocket and Giovanni are featured prominently in an all new story.
- Features Pokemon exclusive to the story (Pikablu, Steelkat, Ninja)

Give it a read!

>Pokemon fanfic
>OP implies you watch the anime
>Shitty fanmade pokemon with shitty names ("Ninja"? Really?)
"Sounds like something the average 8 year old would have written on DA had it existed back in '98."
>Pikablu, which implies you were around back when that was a thing
"Pretty clear you're a manchild. I'm honestly repulsed that you even thought anyone would be interested."


My Response:
Yes, I was around when Pikablu was a thing. I just included it because that's what (redacted) did.

And yes, I'm 25. I have to write this fic to get the story out of my head.

And yes, Ninja is stupid, even more so he has nothing to do with a Ninja.


Eventually I confessed I started to write this under the influence of TvTropes (and, come on, if you have been reading, THAT should have been obvious) and it led to a bunch of funny reaction shots of me saying "I'm a troper."

I haven't expected good comments from the start; I KNOW this fanfic is shit. I've spent a lot of 2011 reflecting and thinking introspectively on my life, writing out this damn fanfic, and getting this stupid story out of my head is me fixing one of my many problems. It's also for this reason I'm taking a break from updating, now I'm pressing the weights, making amazing progress, another shackle crumbling. Work is starting back up soon too!

I'm still writing from time to time though, I've finally revealed the identity of the Hooded Rider. Believe me, I left a lot of hints in past chapters.

I'll resume when I'm ready. Until then, allow me to live out the rest of 2011 with this state of mind I've developed.

Maybe, I'll be back to my old, 2004-2007 self again, who knows?
