Review Response Corner

Foxyjosh: That was a fun review. Seriously, if everyone posted reviews like yours, writing review responses would be so much easier. Continue your good work!

AltoGuardian: Yay! A new review! Those seem to come in more rarely when I don'T post any new chapter. I'm starting to feel a correlation between posting time and the number of reviews I get in a given period of time. I'm glad Rick is not mean anymore, but I almost wished he would be, because it would help him a lot for the end story. It wouldn't help a certain dark pokemon we all love (some more than others), but...

Yep... Rick doesn't like their religion. He is mean, huh? Well, while I won't discuss religion here too much, he doesn't totally want to destroy their beliefs. He agrees that it's fine to believe in something, but that it shouldn't be in the way of progress. If you can grab a stick to fight a predator and survive, but don't do it because the Great Elder Chu doesn't want you to pick up sticks, then beliefs doesn't help. On the other hand, if the belief make them feel safer and happier, then it's fine. So, basically, he wants to detach their religions from the things it shouldn't be affecting (politics, technology, science) and keep it where it should be (morals, ethics, happiness). Modern religions mostly do that and are way better than primitive ones like the pikachu's preventing progress.

Magic doesn't seem annoying to you, but to the pikachu... by the way, she's based on a teenage girl I know online (the said girl is now hating Magic because she's a parody of her, but that's another story). As for Magic and her role within the VX-Project, well, you will notice that the number is fairly small. They have two kinds of VX: Pokemon they capture and to which they inject VX chemical (like Sunny) and there are those they try to produce through genetical engeineering. Magic was born in the first batch of 10 VX born this way. Most of them died during their growth and Magic was born with enhanced speed and reflex, but the VX-chemical doesn't really have the same effect when given at birth and the one they gave Magic a few months before wasn't really working. She refused to cooperate and was released. They have no succesful VX born that way right now, but the second batch in the making will see the birth of their first successful one, VX-013 (or just Thirteen), a cute eevee bearing a very strong likeliness to our favorite predator...

The black doggie could be Kagai... and she could not be... but with how many times I said she could return toward the end of the story (granted, I said Jen would returned and she died, but things happen...) As for what I had orginally planned, if you checked the FF.net PMs I sent to your email adress, they contained the original chapters 19 and 20. I hope you enjoyed reading the original ending and that you will enjoy this one. I think I will release them here soon, for others to see.

I don't think it's a good idea to introduce alchool to rodents, but it's not like the adults can drink it either... Sparktail likes to have a tight control over his stuff... control-freak. And then they plan to fight Kagai... you know, maybe they did drink that stuff, because it doesn't seem like a good idea to try and kill an dakr pokemon dog thing.

I'm happy that you liked the chapter and again, I hope you will like the ending!

Kirby: ((Magic)) (look around) Oh! Hi, Kirby! (giggle) Stuff pop into your head? That's very bad. It could go BOOM! Sparky is not selfish! He is a good friend and it's not his fault if Strongclaw was being mean and stuff and Sparky only tried to protect himself! (pout)

(some time later) Hehe... I wonder what happens in a moon cycle too... maybe there will be lot of apples to fall from the great blue! It would be nice!

Of course, it wasn't Magic! I'm Magic and I'm like not sparks! Some chu are being mean here. If they continue like that, I'm going to stop being nice with them.

Pichu can't lie? Yes, they do! I don't, because it's mean, but I heard pichu lie a lot of time! Those little things can be mean when they want to. It's sad, because I would love to be their friends. They all seem so happy and nice and playful and gentle!

Sparky is a good leader and everyone should be proud of him. If they are not, I will be sad and I don't wanna cry. And Sparky doesn't exploit anyone! I know, because he told me! I dunno why Sparky would lie to me, because we are best friends!

Berry juice? Oh! That funny smelling stuff! I wanted to take some too, but Sparky said I was too hyper already. I dunno what hyper means, but... Hehe... err... other predators? (Psiana lurks in the background) Err... (seem nervously all of a sudden)

(see huge block of text) Oh... too long for me... I'm gonna go play elsewhere! (run up a tree, leaving the rest to DPL) Errr... seems like a new trend for her to give up right before the end. Oh well... I think it's kind of normal that he thinks that a predator he doesn't know (or so he thinks for now) should be dead. Anyone would protect their life against those who threaten it. In the game of survival, if pikachu kill Eon and eevee, that's because they are stronger and the predators deserved to die. It's mean, it's cold, but it's nature. That's why you should thank Sparktail for having a heart and respecting those he know, or else the ending would have been far more different (though, you may have to thank Kagai too, though I dunno about that).

Oh well... enjoy the ending!

PS: That was a weird universe...
PPS: You know, you didn't even play drunken Es' yet since you said that...

Lohtc Karhsim: ...nope, I have nothing nice to say, sorry. Enjoy the ending.
