As celebration for the author's fourth volume with no signs of him planning to drop this or whatsoever, I planned to write another review but with a twist. Why not create a honest review of this whole book so far for new readers to look into? Hmm, let's give it a go shall we? Disclaimer: I mean no insult to the author, I am a fan of your works and this is pure sarcasm while I wait for episode 6 of volume four. Volume 1: Kanto Adventures- Welcome to the first volume in which Saffron City is basically the land of the rockets ruled by the "Palpatine" of the book, Giovanni. There are starwars references and they were perfectly used. Everything was perfectly executed. Meet Luna Evergreen, a woman with a disorder who is trying to cope up with life. Watch her as she joins the Rocket Empire(They really seem more of an empire rather than an organization) with "Palpatine" twisting her mind. They sought to seek Mewtwo in which they call "the strongest of them all." Watch Luna as she travels throughout Kanto to kill, kill, and kill, without having any mercy. (don't worry, she does not seem arrogant.) And of course, the soft and tender moments with her Pokemon. (Like seriously? Pokemon-trainer interaction is great) At the end of the volume is a plot twist which probably shook the hell out of me and it was a great way to introduce [SPOILERS] of Team Rocket. Volume 2: Johto Expeditions Luna has arrived in Johto after the past events in Kanto. (Of course, ain't spoiling it for ya) Now, she is rivaled against a woman who wants revenge for the death of her husband. (Yo, author going steam punk this time, haha!). The overwhelming thing is, their headquarters is in the( Not spoiling too, lol). There are recurring characters from volume one, and it was glad to see them. Watch Luna as she kicks more ass and save the world from turning into dust as foretold by the prophecy thingy. She is racing against evil twins of the steam punk mother who literally wants to turn the Earth to dust (Johto I mean). No, the author didn't copy the scenario from Marvel or Avengers, since the prophecy was in the anime and games, nothing to sanction here. The ending was sad, not to mention one of them {SPOILER}. Volume Three: Hoenn Conquests Experience Team Rocket in a futuristic way as Luna makes her way to Hoenn after being tasked to help out the branch there. She comes across Courtney, an enemy who is basically a retard. (Do note when I used the word Retard, I wasn't referring her as a dumb and stupid character. It was announced by the author that she had some sort of illness in her mentality.) Watch Courtney as she ruins the friendship between Luna and Jenny, making Jenny an absolute villain and arch-enemy of Luna Evergreen. (Finally, an even match for our MC! I'm looking forward to where this is heading since this happened in the end of the volume which was also a great twist if you'd ask me.) In the end, it was basically a Godzilla vs King Kong fight. (Hoenn fans, you know what happened here) but with twists and more. I like Zeal, best supporting character. She was referred as bitter but I don't seem her as bitter. Her backstory, lol, at the first half of the chapter I thought it was going to be the cliche ditch the boyfriend type of backstory but looks like the author made some twists to it. There were many endings in the volume (I understand that because Hoenn has a bunch of legendaries.) And of course, don't forget Zinnia, a woman who sold Rayquaza's life to the villains. (Well, this was a good move to be honest, find out by yourself if you want to know why) Team Magma and Team Aqua, they quarrel here and there and all you can do is to laugh while reading as they throw "words" at each other. This was the first time I saw the author used the words Assholes, craps, as a form of comedy. Archie in here is basically a badass villain who managed to exceed my expectation but Maxie, heh, he's better than Archie. (Magma fan right here!) Volume Four: Sinnoh Journeys So, there are only five chapters and I'm waiting for the sixth but so far, Luna is sent there to establish the first ever headquarters of Team Rocket alongside prodigies who basically electrocuted someone, cooked a delicious meal better than Gordon Ramsey. Meet Oliver, the Flash of the volume. Those are the characters introduced so far alongside Emma, the detective's pet. Personally, I love how the author avoids the repetitive thing to avoid cliche plots. Each volume has a different set of twists, endings, purpose to keep the readers interested as they read further.
