Story: At a boarding school in Kanto, two very different trainers struggle to survive to year, be it battles or contests. At Kitagawa High, you don't settle fights with fists, you use Pokemon. You have your basic math, language, art, music, and history classes, but then you have your contest and battle tactics classes, and even breeding courses.

(Bios)

Riku(14) - One the main protagonists. Born in Johto, but moved to Sinnoh at age 9, she wants to be an expert coordinator, and she'll do almost anything to achive that goal. She's a bit of a punk like Rikka, but has her limits, she enjoys the company of others, and is a kind person. However, she can also be a bit too impulsive in tough situations. She's always downloading new music for her iPod. Her team includes a Pochama(piplup) named Penguina, a Rukushio(Luxio) who goes by Luna, a Fuwaride(Drifblim) called Looka, a Fushigidane(Bulbasaur) called Yuki, and a Bashamo(Blaziken) called Blaze. She has participated in Sinnoh contests.

Rikka(13) - The other main protagonist. Like Riku, she was born in Johto, however, she moved to Hoen at age 8, and unlike Riku, she wants to be the the Hoen champion. A punk, and sometimes a daredevil and risktaker, she really is a shy person and has difficulty getting along with others. She loves to gamble and play cards. Her first pokemon was a Rioru named Gabu. Her current team consists of Gabu the Rukario(Lucario), Kasai the Bashamo(Blaziken), Mei the Jukain(Sceptile), Mizu the Emperte(Empoleon), and Jerome the Mukuhawk(Staraptor). She has four Hoen badges.


Okay, so this is my our comic, and we won't update too often since school's started for us. Yes, the two main characters are based off of two real people, my best friend(Riku) and I. Oh god. No. xD

Rika: But I would like some critique, on my art, and more. I know that anatomy is one of my many weak points, so tips would be useful. I'm open to suggestions and thoughts.

Riku: Also, critique the story and character development as is progresses, please! :3 I worked hard on the plot, and would like to know what you, the reader, thinks.

-Rikka(The artist) & Riku(The writer)

EDIT: Okay we're changing the plot, since the old one was crap. Okay? Now, we'll update soon with character profiles and the next few pages. Sorry for the delay. ^_^;

Well, you only got the cover right now, so there's nothing for me to say. Well, except that Comic Sans is cliché.

 

[Naomi]

Rikka: Yeah, I don't have that many fonts, really(15, to be exact, Comic Sans being the only font that could be read, symbols and all). I didn't update my program. And as I have no internet on that computer, it's a hassle to change things on a finished image. And ***** Studio is the devil. And Page 1 will be up by tomorrow or later, depends on when I can finish it. And if I feel like running around to scan it in, page 2. :3 And I sound like an ***, don't I? >< If I do, I'm sorry.

Riku: Yes, apollogize. Anywho, I type things in, I use Rikka's computer all the time, and that's the font traditionally used on comics, right? Anyway, what kinda of fonts would you like to see? I'll make Rikka dowload them. x3

 

[Ophie]

If you want to look for some weird fonts, 1001 Free Fonts seems to still be up. I'm not sure how they sustain themselves though. These are mostly for titles and all that; most are too fancy for regular text.

Ideally, all the text in speech balloons would be handwritten, but I get the feeling that ***** Studio doesn't let you do that so easily. Instead, I'd much rather see a plain font, like Arial, if you really can't write in the text.

 

[Naomi]

Rikka: Ah, thanks! :3 I'll use a nicer font for the cover of volume 2. Expect page 2 to be up soon!

Riku: ...If she doesn't go inasane first...Anyway, yes, thank you for the site. We'll choose a nicer font.

 

[Ophie]

I'm sure you'll find something that suits the story much better. It's just that I see Comic Sans almost literally everywhere. I'm getting sick of the font to the point where I cringe a little each time I see it.

 

[Naomi]

Rikka: Ah, I understand. xP I'll try using something different. But I won't be able to update for a bit since Riku's not gonna be able to give me chapter guidelines...D8

 

[Ophie]

No problem. I can wait.

 

[Naomi]

Yeah, new page'll be up tomorrow, hopefully. Sorry for not using the edit box, but my computer's acting funny. ^_^; Gomen-ne....

 

[blueguy]

The cover is pretty good, so I'll wait and see what comes of the actual pages of your comic.

 

[Naomi]

Thanks. We'll update soon.
