Sure, this could "insult" you by asking questions about your work like that; but if you think about it, there may have been a way to make your story twice as good if not more.
I know you're not trying to insult me; if you had, you probably wouldn't have tried to offer some more helpful opinions. I understand what you're saying, and there is always room for improvement. I suppose I do need to question myself more. |D
Ha ha, no. I don't mean kill, I mean raise the stakes/risk.
Er, I never said anything about killing...
An event that changes the course in a story will grab readers' attentions and then you can interest them more.
Considering this is Trainer fic, there's not much to go by for drastically changing the course of the story, and we're already too far in to say "Okay, here's this totally normal opening, now go get sucked into cyberspace!" or somesuch.
Besides, what is a gym going to do? Sure, a battle with action, but what if it had something that not only advances the plot but also shows a character twist we didn't expect . . .
Which it does. Please trust me a little here.
Next off is your sig "A Pokémon affected by the electromagnetic waves given off by a tower in the center of Holon. The Delta Pokémon in the past had only received changes in power; recent years have found the Delta Species mysteriously gaining some more easily visible mutations." Now think about it, is your story relating enough to this to be what we generally expect?
Right now, no. No it isn't. And I won't make any promises saying "Literally next chapter we're going to learn everything", but I do have an idea in mind on how to implement the Delta Pokémon into the story more... besides, as of Chapter Eleven, we've already met three!
You see, I'm just thinking of how I can advise you on your story, there are many things debatable in the story, but it's up to you if you want to change anything.
That's true. I can't thank you enough for giving me an honest opinion on my story... I haven't had too much more than three-sentence songs of praise up until this point.
Moreover, it's kind of my job as a reviewer to question things in a story, it happens.
That's true, too. Well, in any case, thank you again for reviewing honestly! Now that you've mentioned the things you see wrong, I see them too, and I will try to fix them in the future.
