I was surprised to see who the author is. You may not have read her fics, but in my eyes her pokeshipping fics are pretty good. (sigh) Which goes to show how even good authors can kill their reputation by writing an insensible story.
I'm very disappointed in her. Now her writing seems bland.
In any case, I'm not sure if some of the flaming was from serious reviewers (like you); most of them seem to be from May-lovers or Misty-lovers asserting their opinions there. I wrote a piece mocking Misty and May's rivalry (because I frankly don't see a love triangle at all, not at this stage) and of my seven reviewers, I think at least two or three of them either praised poke or advanceshipping to infinity.
You should write that Ash/May/Misty story (if you wrote it already, is there under your profile?) I'd like to see one, a real one that's not a parody (although parodies of romances are always cool in my book.)
