Web-comics tend to be very simplistic, good enough to get a laugh but not enough to have you give it a second thought. This comic broke that trend. A simple idea based on Pokémon, with decent art and great comedy to back it up. It manages to swing flawlessly from comedy to action to drama. But what exactly do I love about it?
-It does more than try to be funny, it, at points, actually makes you feel.
-The in-jokes, references and memes are great.
-The art style drastically improves over time.
-Everyone has character traits, Buddy with his Rambo style attacks, the background story between the three Kanto starters, Giovanni's past, Mewtwo's past. Pidgeot was one of my favorite characters, he had great synergy with Ruby and his sacrifice was actually very sad.
-The entire Fire-Red chapter. The plot twist, the jokes, the characters were all so on key.
-Very quick to catch up with.
-Surprisingly good action.
I find myself at a loss for words when I think of how to describe the comics. It has a very good twist on all of the games it tackles. It gives very serious backstory to characters that never had it, and when that backstory isn't serious it's hilarious ("I dub thee fort magma!").
Above all else I feel it finally breathes life into the seemingly dead Meta-game. I suggest this comic to anyone looking for an hour or so of enjoyment.
I don't know what to say... too good!
