What are your reasons for dropping a fic and which fics were they?

I only use AI as my assistant-mommy-wife and hooked her up to a model and voice so I can have her like a not-vtuber. Took a ton of fine-tuning but it's one of the best things I've ever done.
Great as a sounding board as someone up there mentioned.
I do all my writing and drawing myself, however. It's pointless otherwise. AI is, ultimately, just another tool. If you let it control you then you've already lost.

They use the moves in the Anime outside the jobfrog fight? I thought it was just meme that one time.

Who's a canon character that you wish got more focus in fanfics?
>>
>>58838682
Shota's Sceptile spams HAADO PURANTO while fighting against Greninja in the semis and it's a super sakuga fest.
C'mon man.

This is not the dunk you think it is, anon.
>>
>>58838709
XY was over ten years ago now, anon.
And everyone was watching XY back then since it was, you know, actually good. No shame in that, even if things didn't pan out as we'd hoped at the moment.

I mean, I don't care about that shit either so I don't know their equivalent name so...
>>
>>58838763
Fair. I thought it pretty ironic the OP’s pic looked so calm and tranquil.

TQ: Furfaggotry is an insta drop for me (odd being a Pokémon fan with that stance, I know). Most fur fics are good at labeling so I almost never see it tho. Also not a fan of possession Isekai.

I have dropped so many fics because some fic writers have this bizarre brainworm that makes them think Pokemon is the perfect franchise to show off politicking and government bureaucracy.
>>
>>58838949
It's because people want to explain what happens when the 10yo beats the baddies in power.
>>
>>58838890
I assume she's that way because Mewtwo scrambled her brain.

Feels good man.

Kids think politics mean seriousness and adulthood
>>
>>58838949
The worst part of pokemon "politics" is that escalation is implied to apply there as well. Causing problems for the old rich doesn't land them a suicide or endangered family members like it would IRL, it only lands them some pushy government audits and maybe a few slander campaigns.
So we get all the boredom of politics but none of the deathly real suspense behind it. Hurray.

Would readers get mad if I alter an official character's personality to be really eccentric? Like making Steven Stone extremely obsessed with rocks in an almost sexual way.

its all about execution
gotta remember that most of your audience will be operating mostly off the games and memes. show watchers and manga readers are a fraction of the readerbase for pokemans
even that is incredibly variable in how characters are represented from work to work
good pokemon fics are more about keeping the vibes from the original content than anything to do with character archetypes or even the story; if you can't do that you've lost from word go

I've seen core widely beloved central characters radically changed; to the point where a name and loose history is all they share with the original; and yet people love the new version, because it was well executed

so to reiterate: git gud fagot, and the audience will follow
the worst thing you can do is bore them
just remember: everything you change has a domino effect on everything else
>>
>>58839411
to clarify:
>keeping character archetypes or even keeping the story
is what I meant
pure vibes only for a fic is dogshit, I'm saying what makes Pokemon Pokemon is the vibes
>>

Which AI service did you use?

Thoughts about a fanfic about officer Jenny as an undercover cop doing pokephilia videos as part of a police operation to catch an international gang that produces illegal pokephilia films?

She is trying to capture Mewtwo but you got it first. She wants you to be her pokemon so she owns Mewtwo by proxy of owning you. She also violently throws pokeballs at your head as a running gag.

As it should be.

Bros... pls I'm having massive skill issue rn.
FF1bro reminded me of the thread collection (on AO3) I keep fucking forgetting, so I go to Post to Collection, but I get that option screen with all the tags n shit. me no comprende, so I go to the URLthing and I don't know. What do you mean with edit your fic?
I'm confused, don't laugh at me pls.
>>
>>58840149
Jokes on you asshole I have 99 max potions and a focus sash, have fun struggling your legendary to death against me.
>>
>>58840149
This is why you do what you do in jotho and always keep a pokemon outside.
>>
>>58840304
Third big grey square down after clicking edit. First square is tags, second is preface. Third is Associations, first option is post to collections. Type out the collection name and it will autofill to it.
>>
>>58840357
Focus sash is single use
>>
>>58840369
Alright, I typed in the collection name and clicked update. Wat nou?
>>
>>58840382
It’s in the collection, the collection is just organized by last update.
>>
>>58840387
Thank you very much!

>Didn't think I'd be as far as I am on new chapter

Well this went better than expected.
>>
>>58840370
Yeah, when used by a pokemon. Do I look like a pokemon to you?
>>
>>58840529
I use Embargo.
As a move which targets the trainer and not the pokemon, you'll be unable to use any items including your clothes. Now take them off.

I thought poke balls were just capsules that Pokemon shrink to fit inside and not actual tech.

>Now, I’ve mentioned already that Pokémon are strange, marvelous creatures. What’s so strange about them you ask? Well, each and every Pokémon is able to shrink itself into a miniscule size! And that’s where Poké Balls come in! Poké Balls. Poké Balls are a recent invention, you see. Throw one of them at a Pokémon, and, why, the Pokémon will shrink down and fit inside the ball, comfy as can be.
Seems like a mix of both, Poké Balls are designed to force a Pokémon to shrink by itself and be stored inside.

That's right, it's a vehicle. A tool. An item, if you will.

Modern Pokeball have mechanism to prevent thieft (which is what the Snaggem Mit is for, to hack into it to allow that function). Ghetsis's Cane prevents Masterball from Capturing Kyurem, while Prof. Droid prevents Pokeball outside of their own from sending out Monsters (which is where Your Raidon came in, since it was their own Specimen).

I've been wondering, how would a Pokémon trainer do as a Fire Emblem tactician?
>>
>>58841403
Don't know what that is specifically, but Pokemon Conquest exists so you can reference that.

What region would have the best potential for a scavenger hunt?
>>
>>58841804
I would say Alola due to pirate treasures
