Enjoy!

X's and Omega Ruby's entry: "It drives away opponents by excreting a sticky liquid that can dissolve anything. Its eyes devolved, so it can't see anything."

I just read through this chapter. Its pretty good, but why does Zinnia say that Sliggoo are blind? As far as I can tell that isn't stated in any pokedex entry, and they have eyes on their model/sprite

I think octillery’s respect for shinx just shot way up

Holy Arceus, I can't wait for the chapter Birch finds out about Shinx's recall abilities.

Did not know that lmao.

She's also canon to the anime. https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Lokoko

Lokoko, hu? Well that's going to be an interesting conversation.

No immunities in BoC, just hyper strong resistance, can still be obliterated by dragon moves it their strong enough.
Planetace
It was built different. Srs answer, theres no total immunity, just incredibly strong resistance. Fairies can still be beaten with dragon moves, it's just far easier to switch out instead.
Planetace
Pokemon in BoC cannot have total immunity, just REALLY strong resistances. Throw a fully evolved pseudo-legendary dragon at a baby fairy and the latter is gonna be turned into ash, rather than shrug off a Dragon Meteor like it's nothing.

Mr. Mime became Psychic/Fairy in the XY games, he's immune to dragon type moves. If you want to switch it out for another Pokemon a Female Meowstic can learn all the moves that you listed that Mr. Mime knowing.

I’m not talking about it’s evolution potential. I’m talking about its attitude while battling. At what point did the author set up Gumi as being willing and able to battle other opponents, especially strong opponents. It’s out of character. Last time we saw it directly battle someone solo, it only did so reluctantly, and gave up halfway. Now we see it going all out against a strong opponent. If Pokémon are people and not robots that just do whatever attack the trainer tells them to, like the author has been depicting so far, then they need to be treated like people and not face heal turn into a different character trait out of nowhere.

Mr Mime is psychic/fairy. How did dragon pulse affect it?
Michael W
nitpick, Mr mime is a psychic fairy type and thus is immune to dragon type moves.
Luco
What are you talking about? Goomy has been growing on the side Swablu's evolution can't be more than a month away, Goomy is finally coming into his own as a Dragon, and Shelgon... - From Act 2 Ch 5, just before that first Nine vs Shelgon fight. In the Crater, Lee notices Goomy seeming bigger as well. (A2Ch28, after just 1 week of training). It may not have been super obvious, but this is certainly not abrupt either
Orion Dye
Goomy showing a lot of spine all of a sudden. Seems like rather abrupt and forced character growth considering last we saw it it was allergic to battling and afraid of all opponents. You nay want to consider adding in a character arc for it earlier in the story to make its new attitude more believable.

Woke up and had an epiphany, Lokoko is an ancient Ninetales.
Luco
Lokoko showing up was not on my bingo card
V01D
Or a jar of Gastro Acid, Entrainment or Simple Beam. One of those is definitely available on Audino.

Wait the cat is cracked, imagine a Luxray’s eyes with perfect recall. There are shounen superpowers less busted than this.
Jacob Warner
Shinx with perfect recall. She’s going to be a monster in battle when she gets more experience.
WhatAFungi
I squealed like a little girl when I saw you had a chapter out. Thank you for the awesome stories.
WhatAFungi
I know right?!?!

I’m sensing Norman having some absolute shenanigans ready to pull out of his back pocket. Skill Swap Slaking could be insane work.

Oh! Ohhh!!! That ending! Agh! Thanks for the read.
Joseph Jeck
Thanks a bunch
Soah1086
Was not expecting an appearance from Lokoko at all. I'm ready to see Norman getting stomped, that will be super satisfying.

Ninetales and Henson for life. Hope you repaired your furnace or got somewhere else to live
