Okay... I appreciate constructive criticism, that was just harsh.
First off, here's a quote from my own mouth: "It really doesn't make much
sense until the actual oneshot comes out, but hopefully you guys can enjoy
this one at least a bit until I get the next one done." All right? That's why
it's bland.
2. Pokemon is a copyrighted NAME, thus I capitalize it. Pikachu and Charizard
are NAMES, so I capitalize them.
3. Do you ever see a writing that continuously says "He said" then in the next
line "She said" then every line after that it says that? Adding a break in
punctuation is necessary to not become redundant.
4. Like I said, I'm not perfect, and thus my writing has errors every once in
a while, hence apostrophes on plural words.
5. ... okay, I'll give you the random word capitalization one... that's
completely true...

Also, if you didn't like Farewell My Gliscor (For obvious reasons, it being a
prequel to a now three part fanfiction that I JUST finished the first chapter
of)check out As Time Passes. So far everyone else likes it, and hopefully it
will soothe your critiquing gene.

All in all, lay the hell off. I like it when I'm told how I can fix my
fanfictions, but digging into me is not welcomed, though I'm impressed at how
thorough you were with your assessment of my fanfiction. I have to at least
thank you for that.

Enjoy my other fanfictions, but if you don't like them, review. Don't
interrogate me, just review it.

Thank you.

Title: Mapel's Pokemon Story
Chapter: 1
Story URL: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5922733/1/
Author URL: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1914534/
--------------------

Look if you can think of a better name for the story, you can tell me, and
also, this is Fanfiction, not an edited book, so most people don't care about
grammar as much as the content of the story itself. And some people say
Pokemon and others say pokemon. It makes no difference. The Pokemon world
though, does capitalise the names of Pokemon, and that's just how it is. Ever
wonder why when you type in pokemon, it's spelt wrong and when you right click
Pokemon is there?

And come on, she's FIVE! what do you expect?! She's not like 13, she's not the
smartest! Again, about the mum thing, WHO CARES?!

and thanks for the one compliment.
I love reviews that give negative feedback, but as advice, not having a go at
everything wrong with my story. You could have just said that I should make
her smarter or something.
Thanks for the review anyhow

Sorry if this is bothersome at all, but I just wanted to say how I love how
dedicated you are to your reviewing and how you have everything set up on here
xD It's fun to look at.

ANYWAYS. You sent a review to my second account "neofailz", and I don't see
any reason to block you from reviewing there, in case you see grammar mistakes
[since I have no beta haha], but the plots and stories on that account should
be pretty much as fucked up as possible XD Just in case you come by my second
account again and just have the urge to shoot yourself in the head. Or
something I dunno how it works for you.

So yeah you seem to be really into your reviewing and everything, so I don't
want you to waste time reviewing a fic when there's really nothing to be said
and I'm sure there's plenty of people out there who are dying for a review
from you xD So thanks for reading! Good luck with the rest of your National
Review Writing Month :D

Yea, I was kind of confused about the whole capitalize thing...

I really just made the fight scene at the beginning for a writing outlet then
made it into a story.

I think I might redo the fight scene later to make it longer and better.

Douche.I never said my writing was good and of course it is full of gramatical
errors, But I as a writer have the ability to make errors where I want too,
wrighters rights, And your your goign to review a story how about reviewing
the story, not the flipping grammer. Pikachu can be a name and that is why i
have put capitals because VALKNER's Pikachu is called Pikachu at this point.
So next time you review try giving some tips not just being a complete ass
about it

--------------------
Like the first dumbass who showed up to explain he was using Darkrai as a name, they capitalized the word pokemon.

Subject: Thank You Note

First of all, I would like to thank you for your time. You obviously read
through my story and took the time to write a lengthy review.

This story was rushed, as I wanted to get it out online as soon as possible.
And as such, it is cluttered with mistakes and all sorts of errors. I was
planning on rewriting it anyway.

There are a few things you should bear in mind, however, when reviewing for
different fandoms. In the Pokemon universe, it is not uncommon to see eye or
hair colors that are not natural in our world. In most instances, the word
Pokemon is capitalized regardless, even in the games.

I would also appreciate the removal of a link to my story from your LJ site.
Keeping a log of such reviews could be considered slanderous and could damage
someone's reputation for writing any good fanfiction on this site.

That is, assuming you have some sense of propriety and decency.

--------------------
What's particularly weird here is that they'd already removed their story by the time I got this.

And seem to think that a link is slander but keeping the review up is okay? Not sure I quite get what they're saying.

What's also weird is they're apparently a-okay about the whole posting PMs business.

There's a lot of weirdness here is what I'm getting at.

thanks for your input, i'll definitely put it into consideration when i write
the next chapter. i didn't mean to put bold and underline, thats the way it
came up when i uploaded the story. i figured that dialogue would be important
to explain what was happening, so i used it, but now that i look back on the
story i do agree that some of it isn't absolutely necessary. i'm still pretty
new to writing stories, i mostly just write poetry, and i decided to try my
hand at stories. so thank you for pointing that stuff out, i'll make sure to
use it in the next chapter.

A response to your review at http://www.fanfiction.net/r/5928955/

I appericate the review you have given including grammar corrections which are
always welcomed. I am use to having an editor prior to posting here or on
fictionpress but with university taking all our time it is difficult to make
room for it.

Regarding most of the tenses I am assuming you were referring to how I would
have the dialogue often on its own without something like "he said." I use to
write everything in that manner previously but chose to go a different route
(including my style of writing) thinking it was ok to do; seems I was wrong
and I apologize. Most of my dialogue information was just self-taught and were
hit-and-miss with my editors in the past. I am a bit confused though when you
mentioned that saying "He grinned" counts as a speech verb but not
"laughed"
or "giggled."

As for the badge business, he wasn't completely aware of it because he, as he
told the sisters, came from a far away land that is purely fictional outside
the known pokémon world already. This will be described further later on.

The creepiness in general was intended. I was going to soften it slightly but
a friend of mine suggested I keep it. Like any (or most) protagonists, they
will shape their values differently over time for better or for worse.
Considering the title of the story it fits and it will be further evidenced
down the road. Perhaps I need to work better on my "first chapters" in regards
to information given.

I agree regarding the book and wasn't quite sure how to make it more subtle
yet. I'll edit it when I figure something out.

Your mentioning of the names of the older sisters being the American form is
correct. When I awoke this morning I had just realized that and had planned to
fix it immediately. I apologize for that troubling issue.

Oh and by the way I can spell perfectly fine without a spellchecker just check
out my other stories.

If you want to pick this apart I suggest you use the correct grammar.
'Spellcheck, proofread better and get a beta reader' does not sound right. You
should have said 'Use a spellchecker, proof-read better and get a beta
reader'.

You say my fic is awful, just check out Pierre Tasse 2's work.

Story: Unoriginality 1: An Original Trainer Story
Chapter: 28. Regarding Ralts

From: Curious ()
-------------------

I really love this story, mainly because you demonstrate the flaws and cliches
presented in a lot (and I do mean A FREAKING LOT) of OT fics. Reading this has
really made me consider a lot of my options and just of writing in general.
This really shows how hard it is to grasp a GOOD story; but it's certainly not
impossible.

Now, first, for the mindless praise: You are talented. There's no denying
that. And there's no denying that people hate you, which...baffles me. I don't
know you personally to say for sure (come to think of it, I never even read
one of your reviews), but I do know one thing: Your writing entertains me.

Now, moving on. I respect you for your honesty. You have no problem with just
laying out the law and stating through the chapters of this fic, "It's a
cliche, it sucks, work on it." Not only has this taught me a great deal, but
it has probably helped certain writers realize that there are CLICHES,
PROBLEMS, and FLAWS reached in fics--especially to those Mary-Sue/Gary-Stu
creators. (Nahh...they probably didn't realize this because certain writers
hate having their ass served to them on a silver platter...and apparently,
these writers ESPECIALLY hate having their ass served to them on a silver
platter from you. -shrugs- Oh well.) I'm curious (...The reason I used the
word "curious" for my name is that I'm just that uncreative. But then again
you probably don't care, so moving on...) as to how you identified these
cliches. It's really not hard to pick off a cliche...but it is hard (well, for
me, at least...but then again I don't really pay attention) to find so many.
And no doubt there are probably hundreds more.

Anyway, there's a particular reason I'm actually posting this other than
delivering praise to the story and everything. I'm torn with thinking that the
fanfiction that I'm reading has a limitless amount of cliches. I cherish this
fanfic, mainly because I just LOVE it. I found it years back...but that's not
important.

Anyway, the fic I'm talking about and would like to hear your thoughts on is
called "The Legendarian Chronicles" by Chibi Pika. You don't have to share
your thoughts exactly (and besides you have no way of contacting me) or do
anything of the sort unless you absolutely want to. I just want to hear what
you'd say about it, if it's a decent story, just flat-out cliche, etc.

As for the critique for this story...the organization of these chapters are
bothering me. The format for each chapter seems scrambled. The description in
it (except toward some of the last chapters because I have to say I thought
they were pretty good) seems pretty in its own simplicity. The mocking nature
to this story really cracked me up simply because IT'S SO FREAKING TRUE. That
and I've realized I've done a lot of these mistakes in the past when I was all
"LAWLZ I WANNA WRITE A FIC!1!". -sigh- Stupid I was and stupid I am.

Anyway, great job.

Thanks for the time for this review. Seriously, I thank you from the bottom of
my heart.

How odd, my old fanfic was written like that, and people started complaining
that the names weren't capitalised. O.o

Now how come I've never noticed that before...I must fix it. D=

To be honest, Keronin and all normal types have a fierce distrust of ghost
types, and nothing could convince them otherwise. =/ I don't think anything
encouraging Smokepuff would say would actually convince him.

Hm, I kinda wanted to use the same term. You think legandary, you think a
godly Pokemon right? Well, these rulers kinda are the legandary
Pokemon...so...eh, I'll think of another term somehow.

Hm, alright. Might abandon this one then. I thought it was a good idea too.

Woah! You're pretty upset about this!

I called it a drabble because I didn't want people thinking they were going to
get a regular-length fic, that's all. I didn't really think it was that
important; 100 words, 200 words, there really isn't that much of a difference
when fics are that tiny.

Hm, you make an interesting point about capitalization. I think I'm just so
used to seeing Pokemon as the title of the video games that I started to
always capitalize it. I'll avoid doing that in the future.

Thank you for pointing out the title error; how embarrassing!
