Actually he has watched the anime. And secondly from the site traffic no one searches for anime on this catagory they only really use character tags and the on site search engine.

Pokemon names are not species names. Officially according to Game Freak, Nintendo, and the creator himself they are actual names.

Also Champion and Pokemom trainer are title as such it should be capitalized.

And bashing the story idea.

[You shouldn't use quotation marks (or single quotes) with thoughts. ]

Published works use single marks for thoughts. This is bad advice.

[Smart & eventually strong Ash.]

At a certain point, you really need to ask yourself why you’re so uncomfortable admitting you want to write about an OC that you have to staple Ash’s face over theirs. Just write about your OC. Trying to force this to hit the same beats as canon to justify it being Ash will just cheapen the changes you’ve made and make the entire thing more boring as you take what could be an original plotline and hammer it back into the same shape as always.

['Well, this is it,' he thought to himself]

You shouldn't use quotation marks (or single quotes) with thoughts. This is because quotation marks for thoughts make it look like your characters are talking out loud, which is confusing to the reader.

Are you making Ash catch the Pokémon from the team you had?And I’m guessing the trainer id number ash is your trainer is number from Red

Wow awesome starting
Love the first part

Love the pokemons and their strength
I would like if govinee give ash a pokemon for beating tram rocket..
Waiting eagerly for next part so update

Interesting story, I will definitively look out for the next chapter.

Seems interesting enough, though the choice of a King's Nature seems abit overused, at least imo. Don't really notice any major mistakes, but there are lots of minor grammatical/spelling errors throughout the Chapter, I hope you're planning on getting it Beta-ed or Edited, though the mistakes are a minor annoyance at best. Love the nicknames for Charmander and Pidgey though, the back-story behind the choice is really interesting. Hope the next chapter comes out soon!

:).

Nicely done. I’m curious as to what you’ll do with Pikachu, as I always am when there’s an alternate starter, but I’m sure you have something in mind. Will Ash be obtaining Pokémon solely from the original 150 at this point, or will it be from the entire Kanto/Johto region? I always get annoyed when he started getting Sinnoh or Unova native Pokémon when he’s still in his home region, it just bugs me for some reason. A couple of other setting details: Is the Fairy type a thing? Are Mega evolutions?

Are Z-Moves a thing? You mentioned that for all intents and purposes Alola doesn’t exist, which I can respect. I know a lot of people dislike the region for a variety of reasons, do you mind explaining yours? I know that practically everything from the Z-Moves to the Alola forms to the art style of the anime have been criticized, so I’m a bit curious. Personally, the region has grown on me, which is somewhat the result of entertaining my 2 year old brother with it, but it wouldn’t have shown up in Ash’s travels for so long, it’s not that big a deal.

What's this ? A pokemon story ? Made by our dear Muffin boi ?

I don't even need to think to know that I'll follow this.

I'll be looking forward to more of this! You have a gift for good stories, so keep it up!

nice start of the story will be fun to see where it will lead to

It's a good start. Lets see Where u go from a good chapter. I see u follow King's Nature to

Pretty sure, but not 100%, that his ID is either when Pokemon actually came out or when the show started airing.

Ehh... I lost interested in Pokemon after the Kalos series.

Don't play with me like this! Lol please don't abandon this story, I haven't even read anything but I know it's going to be great based on your previous works.
