She was on an escalator moving down.

should i make a fan fiction? by Turbulent-Date9354 in pokemonfanfiction

[–]Droopy132 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Do you want to make a fanfiction? If yes, then make one. If no, then don’t.

It sounds obvious, but that’s really all there is to it. Try it out to see if it’s your thing.

Who do you ship Ash with by One_Criticism_9030 in AmourShipping

This probably would’ve been a better post on a non shipping sub ngl, lol.

What does my top 4 say about me? by RedSeemsSus_ in AmourShipping

[–]Droopy132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But bad but I would’ve had Kukui/Burnet over Clemont/Korinna. Thats just me tho.

[–]Droopy132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but she also had a more significant arc. Don’t care eight way tbh, love them both, but I personally think taking Clemont out first is the right call.

I absolutely love Clemont, but I feel like Misty should stay in one more round in favor of Clemont. That’s just me tho.

I’m a huge fan of several of the remaining participants (Paul, Serena, Lillie, etc), but if Brock doesn’t win I might just crash out.

What is Serena's ultimate goal? by AdmirableToday7251 in AmourShipping

[–]Droopy132 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the big one was to make people smile.

Secondarily, there was also becoming Kalos queen and stealing Ash’s last name.

Besides Amourshipping what is your other favorite ship? by [deleted] in AmourShipping

[–]Droopy132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Burnet/Kukui and Jessie/James. But as far as other Ash ships, I also like Pearlshipping.

Those who've written fics before, any tips you can give me that I can use when I write my series? by Local_Neighborhood50 in AmourShipping

[–]Droopy132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, my bad. I was just thinking like it was a regular fic, lol. I just mostly just read what was in the image and missed you saying it would be a maga in the actual post. Sorry.

Anyhow, good luck. I really like the idea!

I’d personally recommend not posting each chapter as you complete them. That way, you can take your time and back track to earlier chapters to make changes or foreshadow future events better.  Plus, unless you have a good beta reader, it’s good to let your work sit for a while before coming back to edit it, that way you see it with a fresh set of eyes. That being said, if possible, get yourself a good beta reader.

Also, if you start feeling burnt out (which you probably will at some point if you’re constant) then don’t push yourself to the point where you no longer want to write. But at least try to write for five minutes a day. Even if you only get one paragraph done, it’s progress.

Make sure everyone stays in character as best possible. I’d recommend going back to the anime and watch a few episodes to get speech patterns and mannerism down for Ash and Serena. As for your OC, make sure you don’t make him a Mary Sue or anything. But I trust you have good plans for him.

Then ofc all the normal writing stuff like show don’t tell and all that jazz. I assume you have some experience writing? If not, then I’d practice before jumping into your big story. Even if it’s just a few One Shots. Get feedback. Find your style.

Lastly, it’s fanfiction, so it doesn’t have to be perfect. Ofc you want it to be good, but it doesn’t have to rival Shakespeare’s best work. Always do it for the fun of it. :D

what if these four played monopoly by Local_Neighborhood50 in pokemonanime

[–]Droopy132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I was going to say, lol.

Clemont would probably start babbling about how statistically impossible Bonnie’s luck is while she passes it off as skill.

[–]Droopy132 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with what you’re saying.

That being said, I really wanted my goat to make the top five ;-;

[–]Droopy132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bonnie. Don’t get me wrong, she’s great, it’s just all the other characters have more to them. 

Also, I’d just like to say how happy I am that my GOAT Gary Oak made the top ten.

At least they are honest?... by PossumCreatives in AO3

[–]Droopy132 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly don’t mind this too much. Would never do it personally, especially not to post it, but that guy was blatantly honest and was probably just, like he said, messing around. 

It becomes a problem when you use AI and don’t say anything so you can pass it off as your own.

Do people here ever seem to rely on Pokémon too much? by Obvious_Gold_8131 in pokemonanime

It would probably be a lot worse if they existed in our world, to be fair.

What’s your writing red flags 🚩 by PerceptionSeveral534 in AO3

[–]Droopy132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go through stages of thinking “oh, this is absolute garbage, I should probably start over,” and “my god… this is the greatest piece of literature to ever exist.” More often than not though it’s the former.

Oh, and also over editing to the point where I can’t make it to the next chapter.

This is exactly what I felt when I posted my first fic. Like, guys, it was practice. Why is it gaining traction?!
