answer to the trainer challenge: Slugma. Fire beats Bug, Rock(he does learn rock moves) beats flying.

Nice try, but no. Rock is supereffective against bug and flying, but Slugma is pure fire.

By the way, since we're halfway through, I'll be putting up an annotated version of the document soon.

*sigh* I know it is not rock type. BUT, unless you said "which one is a better defender against beautifly", Slugma is still the pick. If you actually looked at my post...SLUGMA LEARNS ROCK MOVES, despite it being pure fire type. Trust me, I recently trained one to evolve for my 'dex. Here's something directly from the nintendo FRLG strategy guide, Slugma's page:

Rock Throw-Lv15
Rock Slide-Lv43

So yeah. Slugma ownz beautifly. I think you may not have been thinking outside the box enough.
 
STAB doesn't matter in this case. It has a stab on it's fire moves(beats bug) and a DOUBLE WEAKNESS ADVANTAGE on it's rock moves. Slugma is the best one, hands down.
 
I hope you guys keep liking the fanfic. We're about 2/3 of the way through, so if you want questions answered, I'd ask now.
 
There'll be one more viewer mail section, followed by battle rules and the climactic showdown with Team Rocket. So if you want a question answered, now's the time.
 
Nice Yosh. This is better than your parodies even. Do this for good.

I've been reading since the first post was originally posted, I just have not commented yet.

Great work!
 
"Nice Yosh. This is better than your parodies even. Do this for good."

Problem is, I run out of material for this a lot faster (it's hard to do whole sections).
 
As soon as my site is back up, I'll put up the fully annotated version. The song at the end has actually been used before (it's a parody of "Need You Tonight" by INXS I originially wrote for Pokemon TCG Worlds 2004). The reason it says "completed" is I intend to add appendices to answer future questions.
 
Disturbing how well you pulled it off. I'm pretty much a non-fanfic reader, but I've got to say that I could really see the show making off those kind of jokes (If they would work a bit harder on the show, that is...) and you just had such a great way of writting it, honestly. But I have one comment: Why is Ash able to use compleate sentences without using the Pokedex for help? Yeesh, you even gave him a vocabulary. ;)

In all fairness, I don't have to match lip flap or live up to network standards.

Team Rocket wasn't the only one using a teleprompter. ;) Actually, figuring out who could say what was one of the toughest parts of writing this. Brock had the biggest vocaubulary, Max, had the most technical knowledge, and Ash and May...well...
