“Game Freak is doing their best to translate [the games] to a language we can understand.” AHAHAHAHAHA
Firstly, one of the authors chose to respond with their own review, so I didn’t actually notice it until just now. Why do people do this.

If you want me to be honest, I suck at summaries, and most stories I read have a prologue, and of course this “Huge Infodump” is relevant, if it wasn’t wouldn’t of spent my whole weekend thinking about what would happen and how to put it in words.

Uh? Pokemon is listed under games though, and I’m DEFINITELY not the only one to use the anime characters. And the author’s note is bolded so its not confusing or anything. 1000+ authors do both of these… I’m not doing anything wrong.

Find your story under “Manage Stories” and select it from the dropdown menu in the “Category” section.
For God’s sake, is it really that hard to read one additional sentence?
Do you mean the universe category? I must have forgot to re-set it. If its not that then I don’t know. Sorry but its way too early to deal with this crap and frankly I’m blind in one eye so can’t read things properly sometimes… There’s no need to be rude…

With all due respect, I understand your concerns but I am just fine with the story as is. And also, the capitalization of some words are a stylistic choice and, in the show, they are often capitalized.Thank you for your concern.

No, it isn’t.
Again, with all due respect, yes, it is. Please do not contact me about this particular issue again.IceFox MasterA response to your review at https://www.fanfiction.net/r/12268292/

They are? Because I’m not the only one who has a story with requests which are still up and running.

The moderators are only human, and take time to catch up to everything. It is possible for your story to slip through the cracks, but know that you risk your story being taken down without warning.

Hm, I hope I’m not the only one you’ve talked to about this, cos I thought interactive stories were fine when I saw millions of them all over the site which are popular with over 100 favs. I might take the story down, but I think you should talk to a user called Frankenstrike before I do. He requested I do this story and I wasn’t sold on doing it anyway, but I didn’t want to disappoint him.

You know that not everyone likes people who review like you. People who only give a couple things to help out then just basically insulting them, and then doing nothing else to help instead you just read and flame the fanfic not helping at all. You do realize that not everyone has all the free time in the world don’t you? I have finals this week and wanted to start a story I can work on over Christmas break. Besides can you really give this kind of criticism when you don’t really use this and have moved to archive of our own? I understand not sugarcoating your reviews but a lot of them come off as overly harsh. There are some who give up writing because some will believe that they are terrible and feel that they shouldn’t create because of reviews that come off as overly harsh. But I still appreciate your feedback but next time you review try to make it where it’s not as harsh.
secs ago[You do realize that not everyone has all the free time in the world don’t you?]
Yes. Which is why I told you to wait until you did have time.
[There are some who give up writing because some will believe that they are terrible and feel that they shouldn’t create because of reviews that come off as overly harsh.]
Those hypothetical people should not be on a public forum, for their own health.
St Elmo’s Fire,
A new review has been posted to your story.
Story: Bartimaeus
Chapter: 1. Chapter 1
From: Lol (Guest)

Lol:There isn’t an anime category for pokemon, when are you gonna realize that you stupid f***?
I must admit I’m a little surprised that people seem to care about this so much more than anything else. But then again, that’s consistent with people fighting tooth and nail for the right to call their original fic fanfic, isn’t it? Recategorizing your story is the greatest imposition of all.
The SkepticalA response to your review at https://www.fanfiction.net/r/12271030/
Hey, St Elmo’s Fire,
Thanks for the comment. I’m trying my best to relate, especially considering this a fan-fiction, so anything can happen.
As for the spelling, I usually capitalize because in the games, the characters capitalize the Pokemon.
Best wishes,
TS

“No matter how far away things are, a Pilot’s eyes can see them!” The games do not model correct capitalization in other respects either. Go look up the actual grammar rules for capitalizing “professor”. Notice how the games spit upon that. Then go look at how the games started off writing it PIKACHU and POTION, so no, the games don’t even consistently do it your way.
The games also gave us the hideous “Legendary Dragon-type Pokemon” construction, either because treating all these words as trademarks in-universe means they can’t use plural forms so “Legendary Dragons” was out, or because they simply hate decent writing just that much.
Peace and love, St Elmo’s Fire,In the later games like Sun and Moon, the dialogue is fixed; i.e. “Could you please show me a Togedemaru?” (From a person in apparel shop in-game, Pokemon Sun and Moon)
I don’t wanna argue. Look, the game is Japanese, and Game Freak is doing their best to translate it to a language we can understand.

sorry! I’m not the best when it comes to typing. I kinda suck. thanks for the advice!

I meant to just reply to your comment but apparently I’m sending a private message, maybe there is no comment reply function. I’m not sure I don’t use this site a whole lot. I like to write and I like to share, I hate to edit so yes I made some mistakes. Like I didn’t captilize Unova, my bad.
But I’ll argue you on the pokemon one. You don’t capitlize dog but you do the species of dog. So technically would the species of pokemon not follow the same rule. Also I’m 90% sure the games do capitilize species (outside of being used as a name). So I am going to stick with it, mostly. I’m sure there are periods where I don’t capitlize. In the future I will try to edit my chapters better for you.Thanks for the comment, I hope you enjoy the story and continue to read.
