There's a difference between saying "Sir, just procedure, but I need to ask who you are and why you're down here. " and "Looking for trouble." It's easier to understand if we use an extreme comparison. Imagine a kid came into a candy store and the clerk pulled out a shotgun, pointed it at the kid and said, "what are you doing here?" There's no reason to escalate.
It wasn't what I hoped this would be. I was imagining this was going to be another "Hard Enough" style fiction where the protagonist already had their team at full strength. That isn't what this is. It's another 11 year old going on a journey, only this one is running a farm and occasionally goes out on his flying pokemon to do journey like things. It comes off as confused. It wants to be both a farming fiction and a journey fiction, but does neither well. Farming fictions usually require detailed knowledge of actual farming and the slow build-up of farming resources. Often you can draw people's interest by showing how easy it is to create streams of revenue with just some small piece of land. Eventually building a farming empire. Journey fictions require either an adventure into the unknown or the meticulous training of cool pokemon. Unfortunately, the author doesn't have detailed knowledge of farming, it's mainly just made-up pokemon stuff. The farming aspect kills whatever adventure the story has and the training is pretty skimmed over. It's not bad, but I was hoping for a reclusive master pokemon trainer that high level pokemon trainers kept bumping into and challenging.
Doing this would bother me as he'd just been told she's busy. I would at least make an attempt to just leave a thank you letter then inquire about the grave location through the other officers. Although I suppose girls are more social than men, so she may appreciate the interaction.
The moment this scene started, I knew it was being used as an excuse to evolve taillow.
I always find this ranger-like forest knowledge strange. This isn't a kid with some massive education nor has he had time in a library to learn everything about the wilderness. I'd rather the protagonist just say, "I came across some hurt pokemon. No idea what happened."
Maybe. I know China has a massive litter problem, but the more nature happy a civilization is, the more sparse the bottle pollution is. I live in Canada and I could walk the entire length of some of our beaches without finding any bottles. I could only imagine that the pokemon world would be more extreme in cleaning up. After all, even the plants and fish can help you with that.
So you are machine translating.. "Sequela" is a term only used by a machine. It means "consequences". There was another time I remembered seeing the descriptor repeat itself which is another red flag. something like "it was scary and scary"
Good job. I always hate those sissies that refuse to introduce real weapons to the world. Tools are meant to be used. Even if the tool was swords, two dictators would still order his knights to fight until the other was wiped out. So what's the difference.
This series is a giant Meh for me. It's fun for a hundred chapters, then you start to notice that the author is making things up as he goes along. You start to notice that the world has long since had it's most impressive secrets revealed and they weren't anything special. My ultimate verdict is, read it until you stop enjoying it. This was an average author having an amazing idea. I would actually give him 3.8 overall, but the overall score is an element of factors I can't give the author a lot of credit for. The writing quality is a ridiculously broad category that I can attribute about a hundred factors to. So for the purposes of my sanity, I'm just gonna treat it like grammar. The grammar was fine. Nothing really stood out as either great or terrible to me. Stability of update... This is webnovel, there are no novels on this site with less than 5 star update stability. Story development was disappointing.. I loved the idea behind the fiction and they never really made me wanna drop the fiction with some terrible plot twist, but the author is clearly making it up as he goes along. Ideas he had in early chapters are overwritten and forgotten in later chapters. In fact, everything revealed about the protagonists back story doesn't make a lot of sense. It's like the author wanted to throw in ideas, but didn't care about fitting them into the existing plot. Character design. Meh. The author tries a bit with the protagonist Leo, but even that is a rather shallow depiction of the legendary Florida culture. The rest of the characters are generic and are never really given the chance to become meaningful characters. The world background is like a jumbalaya of various ideas the author liked thrown into a pot without much care. I'd say the world background is a combination of cultivation, sci-fi and litRPG. I have no idea how that combination is supposed to work, but just turn your brain off and see how long you last.
So yea, this is a massive plot hole if people can be awakened like this. Why hasn't anyone tried this before? I mean other awakened during other nightmare scenarios MUST HAVE asked how they did it in their time? Even if the person in question asks, "well how did you yourself awaken", they could simply make up some lie like, "I don't know, it just happened one day. I was just fighting some monsters and then, bam, awakening." In fact, there's lots of aspects of this that need to be explained. Other issues I figured out myself, like even if someone awakened to super strength, they probably never took it even a single step further because even taking that first step is monumentally hard. Maybe awakened in our world are people like Bruce Lee or Hercules? Just some one-in-a-billion legendary warrior.
You are telling me he just explained that the protagonist had devised viable ways to eat and drink, but instead, he's just going to wait another night hungry? Sure aiming for the other rock makes sense, but do it on a full stomach at least...
Yea, the one you swore you'd kill for having the nerve to offer you water....
What does this even mean? Let's say for example that you had to pick one out of 100 people. 99 of them are useless, but one of them has the key to you escaping. If someone with the "Fated" attribute was in this situation and he chose someone would that mean: Option A: Absolutely nothing because weather you choose option 1 or option 85, in reality, they're all unlikely to be chosen. So the fated option doesn't even have to do anything. Option B: Find people with unique qualifiers to them and make them more likely to be chosen. Weather that's the person with the key or a person with a REALLY interesting story to tell, your power has no real way of discerning. Option C: Read the protagonists mind, find out what he wants to happen, and make him more likely to find what he's looking for.
Starts out good, but quickly falls off a cliff. The translator has already admitted he's doing edited MTL and it shows. All kinds of typos make it in. Updates are whatever. Could use a slowdown if anything. Work on quality a bit more. Story starts out a 4, but as the author develops more gimmicks he slowly turns this into a pure action novel that seems to almost entirely drop the gimmick that made it interesting in the first place. Characters are meh. Nothing good, nothing bad. I think there's only been one character that wasn't designed with a generic personality. ie, generic future harem member. Generic male side character. World background... It's okayish. There are some story elements I found interesting. Nothing amazing. The criticism I write below does not affect the score of the novel. First of all, I hate that paid chapters are restricted to the cell phone. I hate reading things on my cell phone. I would happily buy a flip phone again if I didn't need the smart phone for my work. The power curve is completely broken in this series. The author is obsessed with dumping power-ups on the protagonist rather than developing what he has. It quickly turns into a swamp of random abilities no one cares about. Id rate this as a read it until you get bored novel. It's fun until it's not. And by then you don't really care anymore.
Thank god it's at least japanese names. Chinese names just suck...2-3 letters per name is not enough to make it memorable.
It's a read it until you get bored type of gimmick novel. I found that I enjoyed the start, then around chapter 70, the author decided to develop a really stupid romance for 20 chapters. After that, the author continued developing weird non-pokemon related plot lines. IE game development that steels ideas from the normal world. I've always found this idea to be horrible. Making a great game is more than just a good idea. I doubt you could just go to another world, release minecraft and expect money. Nor could you push out minecraft in a couple months. Developing the game takes years. Knowing the planning would knock off a couple months. While I didn't mind the start of the novel, I'm still confused about what the hell happened there. Is the protagonist a transmigrator or did the world around him change everything he once knew into a pokemon variant? I think it's the ladder, but not once does the protagonist actually compare what the people and places around him used to be. He has a bunch of friends from before the transition and are they unchanged from it? Then there's the money aspect. It's a core reason why the protagonist doesn't want to be a trainer. Pokemon cost a fortune and he doesn't have any money. All these trainers around him keep casually saying various items are "pretty cheap, they only cost 3 million." and the protagonist says you could by a house for 60 grand. But the author never clarifies how other people can become trainers if they're all so damned rich. There's clearly a lot of trainers, so why can everyone else afford it?
It's true, but weather you enjoy it or not depends on the person. I found I enjoyed it quite a bit as I could still suspend my disbelief. There are kinda sorta ways for this plot to work. For example, local cultures could make learning strategy and tactics from established sources frowned upon. And yes, even something like that doesn't really work if you think about it. At the end of the day, its a matter of weather you can enjoy it or not.
Do we really need a cheat? Can't we just stop with the gimmick of a pro pokemon gamer transmigrating over and destroying real pokemon trainers with high level Earth tactics?
I love the genre, but I hate the explanation for how people get sent over to other worlds. They never make the slightest bit of logical sense. "oh, you had bad luck? My bad, go to another world with your memories intact" or some other similar nonsense. No, I'm sorry, but there's no alteration to that idea that makes it good. I much prefer the an idea like "people disappear all the time. Today there was a one-in-a-trillion tear in space for exactly one second that happened to swallow the protagonist and send him to the pokemon world" Done. It's possible, it has no logical gaps. And it's not going to leech its way into the rest of the storyline as the protagonist tries to somehow explore the nonsense vomitted out in the prologue.
