I think that this seems like a good start, question what is it 55? Umm, I see that you are making the challenges longer, but I think that this is some over reaction in my opinion.

No new chapters? Ah, oh well. Happy new years, Merry Christmas, etc.

Good luck, Ethan. :D

Still kinda short, seems like your trying to make Gallade kinda of a mean person. I am kinda wondering where this is going.

What just happened here? I am kinda confused here. I hope you can fix that in the future.

Poor Lotad, Gallade hates him...life these days.

Interesting in order to keep Phanphy, they had to get rid of Castform, yet Phanphy didn't know of his alliance due to the fact that he was listening to music. This could end up interesting.

Okay, so my first review. Be warned, I don't try to be harsh but I have to point some things out.

-I understand it's only the first chapter, but try to give each character a bit more characterization. Some Pokemon didn't even talk until they were in the confessional.
-Tyrogues can only be male, you said yours was female.
-Abra seemed pretty lively, but they're almost always asleep.
-Don't make your characters too similar to characters from other stories- I noticed you had a quiet Cacnea, an annoyed Buneary, a jokester Shuppet, which is perfectly fine- similar to my story, but copied. But just make sure your characters are different.

But other than that, I like the concept! It's a strong start, definitely. As for who I want to win...Cacnea, Phanpy, Murkrow, Shuppet, Abra, Oddish, Shinx, and Spinda.

I'll review the second chapter soon.

Ha, Castform tries to make a spoiler :)

This seems like an interesting concept I like the fact that 4 of my favorite Pokemon are included in this story. Ditto, Pichu, Pikachu, and Teddiursa. Sorry Teddi but I got to go for Mew for now.

that was actually pretty good, i like it!
favorited, and followed. :)

That was totally awesome. GREAT job man.

Good first chapter, Gallade's a great idea for a host! I like Spinda already, he seems like he's going to be funny.
