🍷 Reading Diary 🍷 Chapters 1-25 | First Impressions. BORING! Too much unnecessary info dumping. Literally had 3 to 5 of ONLY introducing characters that could be introduced in a single chapter later on. That's pretty bad writing, IMO. Nevertheless, at least with all this info dumping at he start of the novel, we get to know a lot about what the future holds for us. Is it going to focus on the anime? Manga? The games? A mix of the three? What about the regions? The limitations Pokemon have in battle (PP, Max. amount of moves, EV, IV, etc)? And the usual questions we have when reading a pokemon fic. The writing is... well, decent? It has many simple mistakes, like: o e (meant to be "one"), mixing up the name of characters, and some other typos. Nothing that makes the novel unreadable, but the mistakes are there. The MC is a mystery to me. Didn't like how he talks like a middle-aged person and no one talks about it, even though he's only 4 years old. However, I like his personality, so it's a 50/50 for me. The plot is still uncertain. He has no end goal, really. At least for now. His first battle shouldn't have happened the way it did, imo. You'll understand once you get there. The way he reincarnated is full of inconsistencies and question marks. Didn't really like it. In his previous life, he accumulated 600 and something Good Karma. The limit is 1000. Because MC didn't want to reincarnate with an OP power/golden finger, God decided to give him a pokemon egg worth 500 Karma points. At this point I'm like "Holy sh#t, that's almost all the good karma he gathered in his WHOLE LIFE, It's definitely a good Pokemon" Well, turns out he traded 80% of his karma to win a shiny ****** (No spoilers here, boya). I was disappointed. He also spent a good 100 points to have a good background, so he doesn't suffer on his childhood. Well, that didn't really work out since his real family died in a "mysterious way" and he's actually adopted. We all know this will lead to trouble later on in his life. Dialogue between characters seems fine. It feels human. It works. There's also a timeskip literally right after chapter 25. A ten-year timeskip, to he exact. He's 15, and that's when his journey actually starts. Right now I give the story a good 3.5/5, maybe a 3/5 if I'm harsh. Just skim through the info dump and have fun. I'll update my thoughts on this after finishing chapter 50. 🍷 Reading Diary 🍷
