Transported into the Pokémon world, Sora Kenji—without even one of the standard starter Pokémon—began his journey as a commoner-style trainer. What do you mean by commoner-style? Why, of course it means starting in Eindoak, with Victini as the initial partner. “I just don’t get it. If you transmigrate into the Pokémon world, how is there still such a thing as a ‘commoner route’?” Recalling those fanfics he had read before—those so-called gritty, hardship-filled commoner trainer stories—the protagonists were either low-ranking grunts in Team Rocket or so poor they could barely afford their next meal. Sora Kenji felt utterly speechless, inwardly mocking those fanfic authors for knowing only how to torment their protagonists, with no regard for logic at all. It was as if they had watched the anime and played the games for nothing.
