Hard Enough - Chapter 177 - Meowth's out of the bag

I sat on the couch with Yolanda to my left and Sabrina to my right. Both of them were sitting up and paying avid attention to the television.

Around us, my siblings played quietly. Salvadore lazed about on the couch with a giant encyclopedia open. He was slowly reading through it and occasi...

Announcement

So, for those that have stuck around with me for a long time, you will now that I can subjectively say that this has been the worst year of my life with what happened in February.

If you know, you know, but in other news we are expecting a rainbow baby for very early march next year. Depend...

Hard Enough - Chapter 176 - Family downtime

When the post-match wrapped up I checked my watch and was pleased to see that I still had plenty of time until my booked Teleport transport was due. I glanced up. There was another Ace match booked in but.. I had already gotten my fill of reviewing potential matchups and trainer fights for the da...

Hard Enough - Artwork - Brock and Izumi

As always, throw out any suggestions you have for artists, or artwork that you would like to see used for this, or indeed Red Riot!

Hard Enough - Chapter 175 - Corvo's surprises

The proper review session I had after the match with Tori started about how I thought it would.

“You sucked,” A.J. said.

Yolanda bristled like a Meowth that had her fur rubbed the wrong way. “Brock won!”

A.J. sniffed. “Only because he had the better pokemon, his strate...

Hard Enough - Interlude - The Dragon Master

Lance walked along the hallway of Honour, his eyes tracking across the various names and images that had been etched into the black granite.

At the start of the hallway, the Blackthorn’s founder had pride of place with other notable members of the clan having earned their own section alon...

Hard Enough - Chapter 174 - Ace battle! Fields of green!

I arrived at the field for the proposed ace match with a small entourage of Rachel, Missy, A.J, and Dennis.

Tori had her own entourage with them, having arrived with the Plains and Meadows Co. It was amusing that an entire business sector revolved around providing battlefields for pokemon t...

Red Riot - Chapter 15 - Red celebration

A third of Kiri’s shinobi survived the raid from Konoha after everything had been said and done. Injuries that went too long without a medic played a factor but very few people seemed annoyed at me, or Ala. Having a medic was seen as a luxury.

Jonin Wano claimed that we gave three times a...

Hard Enough - Chapter 173 - The storm speaks

I didn’t Teleport into the front entrance.

Instead, I found myself brought directly onto the roof where police were ready with their pokemon already out.

No fewer than eight Arcanine were present which was a strong showing by the police but this was only the tip of the visible icebe...

Hard Enough - Chapter 172 - Lesson planning and the calm

It was nice to be in demand for talks.

I had people demanding I attend talks with universities, trainer academies, and now training camps.

The issue was very much that the training camps that I’d locked in for were supposed to be just Pewter trainers.

Then I’d gone and opene...

Artwork - Yolanda and pokemon

Another from Ryot_ryot that showcases Yolanda, Growlithe and Eevee playing together. I have to admit with thursday's chapter this is rather well timed!

Let the voting commence on the names that Growlithe will have! Most popular names win! (Bronze and upwards voters only.

Hard Enough - Chapter 171 - Evolution and Ace ready

“Muhahahahaha!” shouted Yolanda from atop the volcano.

I stared long and hard, having been told about this behaviour but fully expecting it to be a lie. A ruse. A fallacy that they’d used to lead me astray.

“Yes, good, but make sure to get the lean back right,” Sabrina said ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 170 - New targets

I laid in my bed, my hands laced behind my head.

I’d gotten in very… well I couldn’t actually call it late, or early, as I’d ended up not coming home until Monday afternoon.

There were only a few annoyed trainers waiting for me but they’d accepted a reschedule easily enough....

Artwork - Knight v Aron tug-o-war!

Another of Ryot_ryot's great artworks with Knight and Aron scene that I saw a request for and I decided it was a good idea to get commissioned. 

By all means please continue to offer up suggestions for future artwork.

Hard Enough - Chapter 169 - The world moves

Agatha sat on a ledge, watching the pathetic people that scurried about underfoot go about their day.

Her hand idly brushed along her shadow and instead of scrapping itself on the coarse stonework underneath her, it touched velvet softness.

Her shadow purred in contentment only to squ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 168 - Legendary Showdown

The sky rumbled overhead as a storm began.

Small flecks of water fell and wet the ground but no one rushed to get undercover. Instead, we remained locked in place, all of us watching as Mewtwo floated above.

Sabrina was the first to move, her hand beginning to glow as she and Alakazam...

Chapter Poll

Hi everyone!

Seeing as I am sort of sticking with Red Riot for now as the extra chapter I thought about adding an extra chapter that I will (hopefully) write up within the month! I will write up something like 2,000 or so words for this one, so only a short chapter for Hard Enough.

Mistress of Mega-evolution Sabrina and Alakazam

I was able to get Ozlyk to do some artwork for this. this will come out around the time the free chapters reach the chapter as it is an epic artwork I want to share, but Patreons get a look at it first! I love how they've teached both colours of hair that Sabrina is known for into the art due to ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 167 - Blasting off

Unbidden, I had flashbacks of all the times Surge had come around and helped me out. All the times he’d helped advise me on how to run my gym and schedule out my year to make it manageable.

He’d stopped into a role of mentor that should have been Flint’s to fill.

He’d never be...

Hard Enough - Chapter 166 - Rocket unmasked

I sat in a clearing in the Viridian forest with a task force. We’d claimed the space and set ourselves up to be ready. This meant a lot of our flying-type pokemon were already out.

At a moment’s notice, we would be able to mount up and attack if we needed to.

I sat with my fingers...

Artwork - Brock and Zephyr flying

One of Dearluna's artworks with Brock and Zephyr soaring up in the sky. I rather like it! I have a few other artworks lined up for the future that look really promising. I'm still waiting on some epic artwork from Ozlyk.

As always, please toss me any thoughts you have for future artworks,...

Red Riot - Chapter 14 - Konoha reacts

Konoha’s response was fast and furious.

The destruction of one of their patrols was a defeat for them, but it was obvious they were out for more.

They must have gotten to the battlefield before Kiri, or Suna shinobi could. Hanzo had a flamethrower jutsu that he apparently used to bu...

Before going to the league, I had to deposit my newest pokemon at home. I marched into the living room and deposited Gible into Yolanda’s confused grasp.

Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing and zeroed in on the new pokemon.

Gengar and Haunter led us into the building, with Gawain and Hypnotoad following behind them.

Outside, the building had blended in with the valley wall, with a few sparse windows that looked like cave entrances. In truth, I could see that they were large sunlights that allowed light to filt...
