This is a version of pokemon thats been stripped of everything that made it magical. All the wonder and beauty just an illusion made by the evil and terrible league. yes the league is evil and they don't want to make money so even rattata is unaffordable to the common family. they can't even house one pokemon. In this dark world where the only good people were the mysterious folk who took the MC in and are now dead. he begins with nothing and his power is garbage. Of course that means he joins Team Rocket and is giving a terribly and boring pokemon to start with. He has no friends. no reason to live except exist, for this world offers nothing but cruelty. lol This premise has been done multiple times and I find it to be underwhelming every time. my review may seem hasty but this best rating I can give with such a blasphemous, corrupt version of the pokemon universe. Tragedy is one think but being forced fed tragic situation after tragic situation is just too much and drowns the story. having said all that, the translation is great and anyone who likes a sad version of pokemon this is for you.

ถูกใจWho said common people can't afford a single Pokemon or a common Rattata? They can get any Pokemon they want, it's just that are risks involved in it, and that is completely understandable. Besides, that was from the perspective of the MC who was at the bottom of the society at that time, along with the people who had similar financial situations. Don't we have homeless people here, along with people living in poverty? Do you think they can afford what is considered basic expenses for a middle class family? The reason it was expensive is because they didn't have proper income. If they had income, something that was expensive would have been something that was affordable. Besides, the reason it was hard for Mc was because he was undocumented, essentially like an illegal immigrant. I don't think I have to explain the importance and need for documents in a civilized society. The league isn't super evil or something. They just made it a bit harder for people to become trainers because if everyone is a trainer, who would do the other jobs that are equally essential for a society to function. Also, given the population, everyone owning a Pokemon is like everyone having explosives and firearms. Can you even imagine the instability and Chaos that would cause? The league just is like the Government everywhere in the world. Also, Mc's Pokemon is not trash. What are you even talking about? You think a Crobat is a trash Pokemon? And it's definitely not as dramatic or depressing as you made it sound. There are 55 chapters updated as of now, so your review after just a few early chaps is quite hasty. He currently has 3 Pokemon and none of them are trash by any means. I sincerely hope you'll give it a shot and give a fair review after reading further.
