Dear readers, thank you for supporting this book. It will go premium tomorrow. I had been wondering whether it might make it onto Sanjiang, but it looks like that's not happening after all.
Let me share some good news and some bad news.
The bad news is that this book is going premium, so starting tomorrow, the chapters will be paid chapters. I know some readers may be short on money, but I would still like to ask you all to support this book by subscribing. After all, I also rely on this book to make a living.
The good news is that there will definitely be a burst of updates once it goes premium. That's an established Qidian custom, after all. There will be five chapters tomorrow. I hope to show you the more realistic Pokémon world I envision. As always, I'm not particularly fond of the path of battling and collecting Badges, so this book will still focus on everyday life, mixed with travel, sights and experiences, and all sorts of characters.
Let me answer some of the more common questions in the review section here. Does this count as whitewashing Giovanni, the boss of Team Rocket? No. Giovanni is still the boss of Team Rocket, and he will still conduct Pokémon experiments and such. I just think that bad people can't be thinking about doing bad things all the time. They have a more real side to them, a flesh-and-blood side.
Finally, there's the matter of how well the book will do.
As for this book, I don't know how many subscriptions it will get, but of course, the more the better. In any case, I won't abandon it, though I might occasionally take a few days off or something.
I'll put the reader group on the
