I get some sick happiness from reading trainer fics. Maybe because they're just so nostalgic! I don't really know.
Either way, I had fun reading this!
It does seem a little cliche though; the biggest challenge you'll find with your trainer fic is sticking to the genre but cutting the cliche. It's so hard! The most important thing I think you need to establish is strong stand alone characters; people with personalities that stay consistant but change slightly from experiences. I found that both sebastian and muddly to be very cliche in the types of roles they play. Unless you're planning to have Sebastian appear to be the young typical trainer (like Ash appeared so often), his character needs a bit of personality. same with Muddly - he seems like a pompus Englishman at the moment, and he might be, but his character needs to seem real as well. Do I make any sense or am I just rambling??
Also there were minor spelling and grammar errors such as no punctuation etc. And I noticed you changed tenses a few times. If you are writing in past tense, stay in past tense. And why do your characters go from shouting to whispering so quickly?
I look forward to the next chapter!![]()
