Dude, I think all of the Pokemon have issues now except for Jolteon, and Stantler.Reply: Sandslash doesn't have issues either. And Dragonite is also pretty issue-free, really. As are some of May's Pokémon. They're just not as prominent as the ones that do. :P

How come this safari is in varied terrain and most game safaris are in marshes? This one seems more like pal park.Reply: This is quite similar to the Johto Safari Zone in HG/SS, minus the freaky rearrange-the-zones thing. Only the D/P/Pt Safari Zone is specifically in a marsh to my knowledge.

Errr…I'm not sure if I really got that…Wh doesn't Letaligon trust Sneasel? Snealsels in my Platinum game are constantly evading me :)Reply: It's not that Letaligon doesn't trust Sneasel so much as that it upset her to be told she's not strong enough.

I bet the Destroyer is Lugia. It makes perfect sense. Mew went around creating the trios, starting with Kanto's birds. Who is the leader of the birds? Lugia. That whole "Mark's favorite Pokemon" thing is definitely foreshadowing. Or I'm totally wrong. Who knows?Reply: Problem with your theory: Lugia, as far as everyone currently understands, has already been captured and therefore should not be able to drain power from anybody anymore.

Do I see our little May getting a tad more sentimental and less battle-oriented by catching that Stantler, a *gasp* NORMAL POKEMON!!
Another thing that I noticed in this chapter: How does Mark hide Chaletwo? I mean, in this Safari you don't give in your Pokemon, but for example at the League he gave in his Pokemon for testing, and surely they have a detector to make sure ALL Pokemon have been given in. If this is indeed the case, surely it should have detected Chaletwo's Pokeball? Perhaps something you might consider addressing in the IALCOTN if there isn't an obvious reason I'm missing. :)Reply: Chaletwo isn't technically in a ball, per se, except when Mark specifically takes him out of storage so that he can come out; usually he's just in the PC storage, but his anchor to Mark's brain lets him stick around speaking to them telepathically and all that. That said, of course, that just opens the question of why they aren't examining all the Pokémon in his box, discovering he has a bunch of legendaries and freaking out. I've been thinking there is some sort of a privacy clause so that any Pokémon you don't specifically enter in the League aren't examined, but unfortunately I wasn't thinking to have them made to pick which Pokémon were to be entered out of the PC when I wrote chapter 45, rather than just handing in their Pokéballs.

Okay, this really isn't on any chapter but the fic in general, how does evolving into Scizor make Scyther slower and unable to fly. Yes, it stands to reason that metal makes one heavier but it wouldn't make a Scizor that much heavier and the increased aerodynamics and larger wings offset this the only problem I find with Scizor morphology is the fact that they shouldn't be able to walk. Am I the only one has noticed how impossible those legs are? Curving downward like that? However the most disturbing fact is that Scizor lacks feet.Reply: Scizor's base Speed is forty points lower than Scyther's, hence slower, and its Pokédex entries explicitly say that its wings are not used for flying, just regulating temperature. I didn't just make that up.

Nokkrar spurningar:
Hvernig er lavender hár á litinn?
Memories that Molzapart had buried?
Er HQ head quarters?
Reply: Lavender er ljósfjólublátt.
Molzapart breytti minningum allra þannig að fólk myndi ekki tengja Mark við Chaletwo og uppgötva að hann átti að vera dáinn. Hins vegar eru minningarnar ekki alveg farnar, bara sokknar dýpra þannig að fólk tengi þetta ekki saman af sjálfsdáðum. Í Crater Town var til dæmis einhver með gamalt dagblað með mynd og grein um dauða hans, sem olli því að allir sem sáu það mundu hver Mark var. Hins vegar sá þessi kona ekkert sem minnti hana á af hverju Mark var skráður látinn í gagnagrunninum, þannig að ekkert óheppilegt gerðist í þetta skipti.
Já, HQ þýðir headquarters.

Interesting chapter … May seems to be trying to prove something. A stantler and her .. yes, I was thinking "strange…" just like Mark.
I like how you put different personalities for the pokemon, it makes it a lot more interesting, and realistic as well - of course they won't all get along … and you make sure their peronalities will help drive the plot in that way you want, excellent!
Is there any way to put a small recap before the chapter though? Not reading for a while makes me forget some important plot elements.Reply: She does seem to be trying to prove something, doesn't she? I think Alan may have got to her a bit.
This fic's plot is such a huge, convoluted pretzel that proper recaps might be kind of huge and overbearing to put before every chapter. It might be plausible to just write a special continuously updated general-purpose plot recap page to let people refresh their memories when necessary, though. I'll see what I can do about that.

I have a feeling Sneasel and Floatzel would make very good friends….

Haha, I love Sneasel already here. She's just like, "If they didn't destroy the world before, why would they now?" Good for you.

Gosh I think I love Stantler already n__n She sounds so reasonable and… normal, it amuses me. I know that Sandslash and Jolteon are pretty much sane as well, but they tend to take a back seat, not to mention they don't happen to be present during this clash of ~personalities~. I'm hoping she gets more screentime.

I have read your entire fanfic, and let me just say, I love it. The concept of making Pokemon so much more realistic in this way is very captivating. You are a very good writer, and I hope that you keep on writing this story. ^-^

Chapter: Chapter 44: Polaryu
Flottur kafli, ekki síst klakinn sem aldrei bráðnar, sem dregur í sig hita úr umhverfinu og notar til að framleiða ljós. Ég vissi ekki að sumir pokemonar töluðu mannamál. Og hvað með drekana sem þau eru að fanga, tala þeir ekki pokemonmál sem þau skilja og hinir pokemonarnir skilja? Svo finnst mér svolítið skrítið með frosna stöðuvatnið. Þau standa á því í dalnum, en drekinn virðist vera á bakkanum, því það koma hnullungar undan fótum hans í einu atriðinu. Gyarados brýtur vök í ísinn, en brotnar ekki út frá vökinni? Eru þau hin óhult á ísnum?Reply: Það eru bara Spirit og Gyarados sem tala mannamál, það er hluti af þeirra sérstöðu af því að þau voru útvalin. Drekarnir sem þau eru að fanga hafa hins vegar aldrei haft samskipti af því þeir hafa verið lokaðir inni allt sitt líf og því tala þeir ekkert skiljanlegt mál.
Krakkarnir eru við stöðuvatnið en ekki á því ("they were on the bank of a frozen lake…"), Polaryu líka. Það er bara Gyarados sem er á vatninu, og Jolteon sem hendist út í vökina á eftir.

Hi. (I was actually the same person as 'Just reading' and 'Just a spriter lass') Just came back to say this is great, no wonder it got its own little button on the sidebar. Keep going Butterfree/Dragonfree! (Or Bachuru…)

Chapter: Chapter 43: To Champion Island
Áhugaverður kafli með náttúrulýsingum og persónusamskiptum. En þegar Tentacruel ber otrinum í stein (rock), þá finnst mér það koma undarlega inn í söguna. Ef það er sker einmitt þarna í miðjum sjónum, þá gætirðu minnst á það nokkrum línum ofar. Að þau hafi komið auga á Tentacruel marandi í sjónum nálægt skeri. Þá birtist ekki skerið jafn furðulega í textanum. Annars bara gaman að lesa söguna þína.Reply: Já, það er áreiðanlega betra að minnast á það fyrr. Raunar eru þau úti á miðju hafi svo það er undarlegt að það sé sker þarna yfirleitt.

I feel like I am spoiled being able to read through your story so far in a few days. Any idea when the next chapter will be posted? Really great story, love the reality of death and injury of battling (makes it all more "real") and the very dynamic relationships between the humans and pokemon (personalities, values, etc).Reply: I only have a little bit left of chapter 56; it's just getting it to end right.
