Battle Islands: The Year-Round Tournement

GTX

Gee Tee Ecks
Hello. This is my first comic (well my first pokemon comic that is). Thanks for taking the time to read over it, and any comments you leave will be appreciated.

Battle Islands: What is it?
The Battle Islands is just a term that people use to describe the islands which a year-round tournament takes place. Although the islands themselves have no name, they have 'unofficial names' based off the entering towns. An example would be is that to get to a certain part of the island, you must pass through Jehtu Town. Thus that part of the islands is called Jehtu.

Going on. Any trainer may enter the tournament. There are 5 parts to the battle islands, 4 of which involve the tournament. You must register at the entering town of a part of the island. There you disregard any pokemon you caught previously and are given a starter. This way every trainer has an equal chance to win. You can only use your starter pokemon and any Pokemon you catch in that part of the Island. The four parts represents a region (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Shinou.) and only contains pokemon that can be found in that region. While in that part of the island, you must win 4 qualifying battles and then the championship of that part. This takes place within a 3 month period. So that means about 4 people can conquer the same island 4 times. If you win the championship, you are invited (along with the other winners of other regions) to be in the grandchampionship that is at the very end of the year. Win that, and you are crowned champion of the Battle Islands.

Confusing? I'm sure it is, I'll elaborate more as I progress through the story (or if you ask).

Not bad it doesn't seem to cliche for a journey comic
(if that's what it is because it sort of looks like one so far)
Very good sprites, I'm more of a speech bubble fan
then text underneath the comic but you've done it pretty well so,
so far this comic is pretty good

Anyway I like the effects.

Also where did you get the chikorita sprites?
Mind messaging me the link to the comic? I'd enjoy reading it.

The Chikorita spirite was from the Spriter's Resource thread in this forum.

Thanks to you as well. I'll try to improve.

-I'll be sticking with the text method I have now. I'll think about it doing it soon, but for now I'd just like to keep it as is.
-Will do, or not do.
-All the more reason for me to continue to try to add individuality, hence the tournament.

Thanks for all your comments. I'll try to do more of your suggestions, and more would be appreciated.

EDIT: Just realized some minor mistakes. Will be fixing.

EDIT'S EDIT: Fixed.
