Hard Enough - Chapter 61 - Gary's adventure III

When Gary returned to the gym he felt more than ready for the coming challenge. He walked in with his best pokemon at his side. Squirtle was practically strutting after the last few days of fighting other trainers. They’d made some real strides together, and Gary had let his pokemon know how pl...

This month's chapter for the 'Fan's choice was Red Riot Chapter 4, I am finalising the details and editing it to release this weekend! I'm super happy with it and hope that it will be an entertaining read! That being said I have been remiss in not getting this posted earlier!

Hard enough - Chapter 60 - Gary's adventure II

“Argh! This place is so annoying!” Gary shouted.

“Weedle!” another bug pokemon leapt out at Gary, causing the Rattata that Gary had out to sprint at it. Rattata then intercepted it with a tackle mid-leap. Gary watched the fight progress, more than happy to let his pokemon fight with...

Hard Enough - Chapter 59 - Gary sets out!

Gary Oak waved at his adoring crowd as the car slowly rolled down the road. “Thank you for coming out to see history in the making! Now I’m off to begin my pokemon journey!”

He could see Ash talking with Gramps about getting his pokemon. For the life of him, Gary couldn’t work out w...

Hard Enough - Chapter 58 - Challenger, are you ready?!

I tapped the board behind me and the kids all dutifully wrote down what I had projected onto it.

“As you can see you need to account for your budget for things such as medicine in the field, food, tents and more when you leave Pewter. For now, I know you have the tents that I gave you but...

Hard Enough - Chapter 57 - A challenger appears!

“I’ve come to challenge the gym!”

The words echoed through the reception room. The trainer’s words were a proclamation, intended to give pause to all that heard them. It cast the moment into people’s memory. This would be the day this trainer would face the gym and hopefully overc...

Chapter 56 - Crossing t's and dotting i's

“Alright gang, for today’s training session we’re going to be working through the moves that you should have.” I looked over the small classroom that I had in the depths of the gym. The trainers that had signed on watched on with various postures and expressions.

I loosened a sigh of relief. Ticking another item off the shopping list was a good feeling.  With that picked up I was finally done with today’s shopping. Now I just needed to check out, go pick up Tommy and Cindy’s gift… and then I should be able to get some me time. I chuckled to mys...

A.N. Bad news is that due to some IRL tasks next month I am not super certain from the week of the 14th to the 21st I will be able to post any chapters. I'm not sure how much this will affect releases but thought I should mention it for people to understand that I'm going to be a bit busy...

Birds of a Feather DxD - The Summoning - Chapter 3

The summoning of a Devil is not something that takes any actual pomp and ceremony. People like to dress it up as more than it is. In the future during ‘canon’ people would merely have little leaflets to help proliferate the spread of contracts. These days people would set up elaborate rituals...

Hard Enough - Chapter 52 - Rocket Raid

Traversing the wilds in the pokemon world was a skill. It required that you have a level of awareness of your surroundings beyond just your sides like you would when walking a route. The routes didn’t advertise it, but there was a natural deterrent with the trees. Some Rangers even planted cert...

Hard Enough - Chapter 51 - Training day tricks

I chewed on my gum as my aviators glinted in the afternoon sun. Before me, my once hopeless baseball team of miscreants and minors were chasing a victory. They were in position for one of the last pitches they’d get a chance at.

I rubbed my chin in thought and made a vaguely stroking gest...

Hard Enough - Chapter 50 - Training days, Mt Moon

Scyther darted up the rocky path to inspect a stone. His head tilted this way and that way before nodding his head and slicing a specific section out of the surrounding hill. Then he darted back to me with the rock balanced on top of his blades. Then he darted back down to us.

“Scyther!...
