Feeling lonely, but not alone is a great phrase.

This was an excellent story from beginning to end. I honestly don't have a lot to say. I've been sitting on it for awhile, but I'm not good at writing reviews if I like the story. I know that sounds weird, but I find it a lot easier for me to write a review if I dislike it.

But I really, genuinely liked this. The characters were incredibly interesting, and even though they only had nine chapters or less to shine, they still all had their moments. If you wrote a story about any of the three human characters, I'd love to read it. Spencer and Ace, in particular, really interest me. They come off as cowboys/scoundrels, and I'm intrigued to what kind of trouble they could get into. And of course, if Marion went to Kanto, I'd love to see how she would function in that society. I almost don't see her being able to make it through.

What I really enjoyed about this ending chapter in particular was how it sort of mirrored the rest of the story. Marion was the first to go back, and then Spencer, and at the end, they met with Nidorino once more before Exo had his goodbye. It was really nicely done.

And I'd be lying if Exo leaving didn't make me emotional. I'm really invested in Exo, and while I think that him going off on his own will be better for him, I just want him to be happy. I think he'd be happy with Katarina, but his need for adventure is probably more important and fulfilling than his need for happiness. Or atleast, that's how I read it.

Overall, I really solid story. I'll definitely continue to read what you write whether it be shortform or longform. Just keep writing.

I’m at the DMV waiting to receive my Japanese license, so I figured now was the perfect time to read a few thousand words.

That was pretty intense. I knew that Katarina was going to lose the battle somehow, but I still had hope that Oak would find it in his heart to give her one.

Genuinely curious about what Pokemon she’ll be getting. I like the sort of irony of her receiving a Cubone though.

I don't really have much to say about this chapter.

That said, it feels like you've done a better job at creating Galar than Game Freak did. Everything about the world that you've formed seems like it's from the UK. I could totally be wrong, but the detail is amazing.

The scenes that you create are so good.
And the world that you’ve made is intriguing. Exo is such an interesting character. I want to know so much more about him. There is seemingly a deep sadness in his heart, and I can’t help but hope that he gets a hug before this story ends.

I would love to read more about Endo. The characters that you've created are so interesting. Even more of Exo would be fantastic. I just don't want his story to end. That said, he does come off as a bit old, and I'm curious about his age especially as it pertains to Pokemon. (You know... dog years)

The world that you've created is so interesting. It seems like its not set in any kind of real time. Some chapters have a western vibe to them while this one clearly has the medieval tone. And now, Katarina is going to ride on a train! I'm so interested in what kind of city Tinko City will be. It's beautiful what you've created thusfar, and I'm more than curious to see what's coming.

I do want to see more of Exo and his personality moving forward. He's been my favorite part of the story, and I think he took a sort of backseat in this chapter. But that's just me being selfish.

"My parents were in the circus."
Oh no. Oh no no. Dead parents. I smell dead parents. Trampled by Donphan or whatever that new elephant Pokemon is from Galar.

I'm sorry I haven't been able to review your story as I want to. I'm a busy boy, and I'll be honest, I'm not a very good reader. I also won't really be able to provide you with a review that will be as insightful or thoughtful as the ones that you've written for me. However, I can tell you how your story makes me feel.

When I write my stories, I see them as a movie or a show. I try to set a certain tone in that way. And when I read, I generally read stories as though they're also movies or shows. When I'm reading this, I see darkened colors. Not in a depressing way. The way you've written your characters (Spencer and Ace in particular) reminds me of cartoons from the 1940's to around 1950's. The colors that I see are in those shades.

The way that you're able to set the scenes makes this story feel very earthy. Although Katarina is not on a some grand adventure, this still feels genuinely more outdoorsy than literally any other fanfic I've ever read. You've done a perfect job of establishing an adventure-like tone. And, as a reader, I can really feel the distance of Katarina's journey.

I am curious as to why some Pokemon can talk and Growlithe cannot. I don't think it's an issue, but it's something that I was mulling over the entire time of reading. In my head, it's because Growlithe is a baby. If this is the case, I don't think you need to write it directly. Maybe the implications are there, but I am a ding dang dumb dumb.

I'll try to read more of your story today.

I like that Pokemon talk in this fanfiction, and they're not making a big deal about it.

Usually, in other fics, they seem to make it this big deal, and it bothers me. But I like this way it's done.

Also, this is really funny. Exo's dialogue is wonderful.

Once again, you're so incredibly talented.
I wish I had the attention span to write this much detail.
I'm usually opposed to reading stories that take place in new, made-up, regions, but I'll give the Tinko region a shot.
Why did you go with the name Katarina? It's a pretty solid name.

Hey, welcome. So look a warning given you are writing a Pokemon story. Farla, St Elmo's Fire, Talarc, Spencer841, Handle Criticism Maturely, and a few others are known bullies on this site who review only to destroy stories and promote drama.

They will push their believes down your throat, demand you redo your story to fit their wants and no, they are the super minority and hated by the fandom. They also tend to post pms publicly so responding to them is ill advised.

They start off with a disclaimer about honestly thinking it would help. It doesn't they want you to be screwed over as they complain about trival nonsense that got their panties in a twist.

They think Pokemon is slavery. That you should capitalize the way they want, fyi Pokemon names are not species names (but actual names according to game freak) and that's been officially recongized in modern English. So yes it's correct to capitalize Pikachu for instance. Oh, and they give out false dialogue formatting (It's "Hello," She said dialogue is a seperate sentence). Spend time putting out a text block of non issues that are not going to help you. Don't get me started on Arceus.

What's worse is they all try to pass it off as them being critics in their reviews. Any review with it in the begining should be ignored if you get it.

Oh and if they say that they are being bullied. Know that they are lying as they been doing it too this fandom for years now and are just pissed that a group are working to stop it. The admins told them to knock it off.

If that's not enough on my profile is proof its utter nonsense. oh and if there is a guest reviewer titled "Take Down Hybrid" know that is's actually Handle Criticism Maturely the biggest of all of Farla's supporters and an utter troll who only doing this shit because Hybrid gave her criticism. The girls gone off the deep end and into complete insanity.

Best to remove it.

Speaking of them they had twice agreed to stop but don't. Even after being told to stop by the admins, their friends, and even random strangers. Right now they are somehow convinced that Hybrid, a woman, is a man.

If they claim they have proof don't. Its all utter nonsense land they been told by the admins to take it down.
