Stupendous! Sawk is my favorite Pokemon To Date, And Very Well Known, But This... Man.
5 STAR RATING!

I hope this is continued. I really enjoy it.

Don't forget dreams, heart, and all the identifiable pokemon traits and conflicts essential to rich storytelling.

How in the HELL can anyone read this long ass story?

The Striaton triplets are the Shadow Triad?

The fuck...?

This guide has compelled me to make an account just to share my gracious feelings for it. The amount of detail and worldbuilding crafted into each chapter is beautiful. Although i've noticed the guide is either on a huge hiatus or has been ceased. So i'll make a small bio on the Hydreigon line.

Deino/Zweilious/Hydreigon: Last of the Dangerous Seven, extremely powerful, blind and unstoppable rage, must be kept in a poke-ball at all times excluding battle. Usually found in the deepest bowels of Victory Road, but extremely rare. Deino is rambunctious and hyper active, but never goes out of it's way to harm, seeing it's actions as playful. Zweilious starts out as nice as it's first form, but bickers dangerously with it's other head, causing extreme damage to anything or anyone near it.
And through evolution, contrary to belief, one of the heads do not die in the process, rather they forcibly and painfully fuse together, causing immense pain, Hydreigon is left with almost nothing but with it's primal instincts, using all it's stimuli in hopes that something will either stop the pain. This comes out in the form of moves. The only thing left now aside from crippling pain are the painless memories it had as a Deino, these never show though.

Most of this fanfiction is really good and well written, and I admire your writing abilities and dedication to this story you've created. However, I feel a few things need to be said. First of all, where on earth in the Pokémon canon does it say that Cofagrigus is "totally evil"? I have no problem with an alternate universe interpretation of Cofagrigus where this is the case, but to untruely state that this is canon is not correct and rather misleading. What it DOES say in Cofagrigus's Pokedex entries (as this is the only "canon" that there really is regarding the nature of the Pokémon) is that it behaves in this way to retaliate against grave robbers. This is a far cry from wanting to kill and devour any human it comes across, and I seriously doubt that GameFreak would have designed a Pokémon intended to be entirely immoral and reprehensible, even if purely from a profit-based point of view, because they would have had to pay graphic designers to create it and if it did not bring in any money from people liking it it would be a waste of time. I hope you read and respond to this review.
Thanks,

This is a wonderful story! I realize that you're probably dead on here, but I thought I'd say it anyway. You've got such a long guide for so many Pokemon, and it's all reads so nicely! I hope that even though you may never even see this review, that you feel a burst of happiness for seemingly no reason!

Funnily enough in Gen VII Gamefreak actually did develop a Pokémon that uses spores to put it's opponents to sleep then uses it's roots to suck nutrients out of them.

It's called Morelull and looks like a small pink mushroom. check out it's pokedex entry:

Morelull, the Illuminating Pokémon. A Grass and Fairy type. Morelull can send out glowing spores that put its opponents to sleep. Then it drains their energy using its foot-like roots

There's even an episode of the anime where Ash and his friends are attacked by a group of them.

I love every bit of these, but I've ignored every Love part of each chapter, cause it just feels wrong to me.

Please forgive any negative comments I may have posted. I've been...weird when I posted them. I apologize.

Haha, loved the Scrafty guide, thought out and imformative and not to mention creative.
I hold you in high regard.

me:“no way chandelure cant be bonded with! its my favorite pokemon! look theres one right there! hey there chandelure how are you doing! "chan?" here i got some aspear berries for you! (*puts them in fire) chandelure:"DELURE" ( THESE TASTE LIKE STUNFISK SOUL! DIE HUMAN!) me: "in hindsight i should have noticed the mountains of corpeses by it." - famous last words

I would like to give you some inspirational ideas for future Pokemon I had for your guide.
1: Perhaps make Pokemon such as Golurk and Volcarona natural enemies to the devastating abilities of Chandelure and Vanilluxe and have them be the metaphorical savior to the two more villainous Pokemon.
2: I think you could have some fun with the rivalry between the Mandabuzz and Bravery line.
3: This one is more of a personal question but would it be acceptable for me to write a story with some of the personalities and characteristics of the Pokemon outlined in your guide. I wish to clarify that this would not be a copy or even a parody of your work but only using characteristics and some plot points like Vanilluxe being extremely dangerous and the death circle around Chandelure. I would also like to reference your guide as being a book that the characters can interact with in the story with the author of the book being your OC professor. If any one of these are not acceptable please inform me before three months after this post ends otherwise I will believe your account is dead. But I will still be responsible and respectful of your work even if you don't respond.

I really hope this isn't officially dead, I really liked it. (And it's the only one of its kind I've been able to find anywhere)
