I've been looking forward to reading this ever since I saw the summary and it did not disappoint! I'm bad at leaving lovely detailed comments so I will apologise for my inadequacy, but I really enjoyed the fic. Firstly, the music worked well for each chapter - I listened to the songs as I read (anything that has me looping Girlfriend in a Coma is a Good Thing, tbh) and they were so effective for setting the scene. You mentioned that it's dialogue heavy - along with the soundtrack that made it feel rather cinematic, which I liked. Some of the violence made me go D: at my screen, which is again a good thing. Kind of. And I frequently found myself having ~ALL THE FEELINGS~ so thanks for that. No really, thanks! I would totally read a reimagined Unovan adventure but I understand you not leaping to write it! Black definitely does suffer from his cut-down role though, which is a shame because I enjoy your other characterisations. I liked that you had Julie's speakingtoofast detail. Also Cheren being the straight Pokémon trainer cracked me up. And all the stuff about the politics or social rules or whatnot Pokémon being allowed out of their balls was interesting. Basically I like your headcanon and would like to live in it if that's not too weird. ... Thank you for writing!
