Wow, those chapters were really neat. For some reason, I find that team of Pokemon kidnappers very cute. I really like how each one has a good, strong personality. You can see that Illumise is the "leader" as she's always taking charge. And of course Volbeat is the right hand man. (right paw pokemon?) I can really see a sort of Jessie/James relationship there. Although, your Jessie has a touch of Meowth, as he seems to be the leader of that group. ^_^ I don't know too much about Machop, but he seems kind of like the "muscle" of the team. And Kadabra has that elder/reasonably thinking member feel to him. And the way that everyone's dialouge was written, it seems that they group as a whole works fairly well. They talk like they're on a team. ^_^

Well, I guess now we wait an see what happens when Ash wakes up after being caught by Pokemon for a change. If he didn't have the impending business with David, this wouldn't be nearly as bad of a situation... Unless the "Big Sis" is evil and crazy or something. ^_^

Well, I really enjoyed these two chapters, and I'll be waiting for more. Keep it up!

Have fun on your vacation too!
(That Volbeat in your signature... Is it somehow related to this? Hmmm....)
