This was a fantastic start well done

Alec is a Mary Sue dude. Dude he beat all four champions that easily? Try to rewrite this and make Alec take more effort to defeat them. And maybe let him lose ONCE! And this is mostly based on alec not ash and don't forget the favoritism when Alec got a rioulu at 4 while ash didn't get a Pokémon at 4 he just got lucky at seven to find pikachu. Seriously rewrite this because there are too many flaws.

Red will always be better

I understand the need for reviews for motivation so here is what I say. Write what you can. Nice job

this is s nice story

i tried reading this and it was disappointing. You excuse your character behind prodigies and other characters like Yugi? Really? Need i remind you that the spirit was a monster at the game with a shit ton of experience? And in case you forgot, Yugi like most protagonists of the saga tended to end on the ropes and make a brilliant come back.(something you could have done with alec and later show him as stronger)
Next you gave real life examples like chess. Thats a mental and strategy game. Intelligence and and a bit of experience for a prodigy, sure, but Pokemon is not chess. Unless your character are playing with a fucking gameboy, here, what counts are pokemon and experience and while your character may have trained them, you forget this is a fight. Experience counts a shit ton and dont forget that champions dont stop battling, so sure your character is a prodigy, all his pokemon, i dont think so, strong yes, but against hardened veterans...
in any case, your excuses sound more like a child throwing a tantrum. Instead try to to learn to appreciate criticism. All characters must have flaws, all of them must feel real or at least show something that gives them life and make the reader feel something other than bored annoyance. Your Alec is basically put, an overpowered gary stue with a tragic and incredibly stupid cliche at his back.
A huge part of a great story comes from creating and developing good characters. This guy was badly done, you just need to keep working hard to improve. Good luck mate ;)

Please write next chapter already. Thank you very much. I really appreciate it and liked it a lot.

Unfortunately i can't muster any attachments to these OC's.. Oh well, gonna hang around for a while to see where this goes.

Frankly the problem with Alec is that he is defined by his power not by his character.

Secondly he is not a Gary Stu because he is an unbeatable pokemon trainer, that is of course possible, if unlikely, but the problem is his lack of relevant flaws, ie to say flaws which are problematic to the completion of his objectives.

Please update more! Please! This fic is pure gold!

Very interesting

this is good you should make more

Bored story better when u update unspeakeble story

Ok, a good chapter, I was hoping Ash would capture a Dratini. I wonder if Ash will have the same adventures with the legendaries? Like Mewtwo or Lugia's movie. Im worried about Alec, he seems broken, more broken than what I thought at first. And Le Cruset is working for the angry and betrayed Arceus, I hope Ash fixes that. Looking forward to more!

PS Ash and Alec feel like the two faces of the same coin!

It's a nice read so far, can't wait to see what's next. One question: Le Cruset as in the crazy guy in Gundam seed or just a coincidence?
