A response to your review at http://www.fanfiction.net/r/5886182/
Okay, thank you for the review.
Oh damn, I feel so stupid for that. I really do.
Hm, that makes sense. Thank you for helping me on that one.
Oh, it doesn't? :/ I'll try to rephrase that.
It was just the prologue but I don't want to reveal what happens in chapter
one, considering the connection and such. But thank you, though.
Title: The Knight and the Princess
Chapter: 1

--------------------
Thank you for the information in regards to capitalizing nouns and names and
such. I appreciate you taking the time to rattle off the rules to such things,
and I'll do my best to bear it in mind for future works, and I'll pass it on
to Exilo as well.
As for the actual story, I'll make no excuses, it's not written to be a really
serious work. Admittedly it was a little rushed to get it done for Saturday
just gone. Whilst I can see you point and completely agree with you, such
things dropped under the radar, partly because this is supposed to be more
light-hearted and as a gift, and due to time constraints.
Regardless, thank you for spending the time to read and review. I've taken in
what you've had to say, and I'm very thankful for the criticism.

Farla,
YOSHIKIRB wanted me to tell you he has updated his fanfic. It now has
thirteen chapters. Please, leave a review.
--------------------
No idea what the fuck is with people talking to me through their friends, but I want to kill everyone doing it.
Similarly, no idea who the guy is, what the chapter number has to do with anything, etc.

Don't like it don't read it.
I knew what it was called but someone cept nagging me to do it like that.
So if you don't like the story I don't need you reading it.
But thanks for the critism. I'll tell the person who told me to do it it was
stupid.

Ironically, this was one of the very few stories where I did, in fact, stop reading in disgust based on the first paragraph.

I must admit I was a little surprised when your review cae through as i wasn't
expecting it , however I would like to thank you for your criticism.
On the note of OC's , I will be taking it to heart and not be using any,
however , if it isn't to much trouble to ask , what do you think of the ideas
for original pokémon?
obviously it would have the same problems as original characters but what
about just naming?
Admittedly when it comes to thinking of names for new species of pokémon my
mind draws a blank.
And finally on the note of my problems with nouns, thanks for pointing it out
as I would probably never have noticed.
Once again , thank you for the time you took to write out all the flaws in
your review and I hope the rest of story corrects them and makes it wothwhile.
Suicune Lord over and out!

A response to your review at http://www.fanfiction.net/r/5884088/
Thank you for your constructive criticism. I will try to fix it up in the next
chapter. I appreciate your honesty; a review such as yours is much better than
simply saying "Your story has a lot of mistakes." Please keep in mind that I
am fairly new at this.

Subject: In regards to your review...
As you can tell from the forward of "The Knight and the Princess", I co-wrote
it with Gecko-1539. After seeing your review, i felt it neccassary to comment
on a few things.
For one, you capitalize "Pokemon" as well as all names of Pokemon. While in
the real world that is not the case, you fail to realize that this is a
fanfic, and in writing a fanfic you have to preserve the "rules" of a given
universe. "Pokemon" and all names are always capitalized. That is in official
Pokemon things, such as the manga, scripts for episodes, the story books,
etc., and unofficial things such as Bulbapedia. If you spent all of ten
seconds researching Pokemon, you would know this. It's the same rule as in
Star Wars, where you officially capitalize "Human" despite it being lowercase
in real life literature.
Secondly, Jenna isn't a brat. She's not going to capture a Pokemon if it
wasn't a "fair" fight, which is a rather common thing in the anime as well as
the games. And even then, in the heat of the battle she did try to capture the
Cubone, but it managed to deflect the ball. When she's calmed down, she's
maybe thought that something is wrong and trapping it in a Pokeball might not
be the best course of action. This is really, really right there, but if you
can't see it, a writer shouldn't have to lower his standards to cater to a
fringe of trolls. Also, this is a fanfiction, and any decent writer tries to
preserve the spirit of the source material, which Jenna does. She first and
foremost recognizes that the Cubone is badly hurt, and that despite that he
fought not to get caught. Then she doesn't "just" leave him. Her Vulpix asks
her to go. Again, i don't know how you missed that, but Vulpix nudges her with
her head, gesturing for her to leave. Jenna doesn't abandon her Pokemon to go
have a smoothie, she respects her "partner" enough to trust it.
Now, why doesn't Jenna take him to the Center? Something might be wrong with
the Cubone, and it might not take it too well to be taken to the Pokemon
Center before it's even regained conciousness. Something is wrong, which is
heavily implied, had you actually read the fic. Though i have a strong feeling
that you skimmed it, decided you could flame, and pounced on it like a rabid
Growlithe.
If you have any comments, please, feel free to PM me back. This was not done
with Gecko's knowledge. I am contacting you of my own accord.
