Thank you to every reader who has made it this far. I have translated the story thus far, and it's been a lot of work, I'm tellin' ya, haha.
I wanna take this opportunity to ask for suggestions.
To put it simply, I'm not too sure about the title of this novel. I'm not a fan of the original title of the raws, and I'm not quite satisfied with the title right now.
But I can't really think of any good titles, so I hope for the support of my awesome readers.
You're all welcome to share any title ideas you have!
Keywords: dark vibe, realistic tone, decisive and ruthless, Dark-type specialist
Also, if you have any beautiful Pokémon wallpapers, Feel free to send them to me, I'd really appreciate it.
This chapter in the raws is basically what I just wrote, but from the original author to his readers, but since I have the same problem as him, I decided to use the chapter almost 1:1.
And for all you Pokémon enthusiasts who really wanna know everything fully,
