Link to Post: Squirtle Fountain
Nominating: Fox

Reason: The back and forth between Haru and Dupin is super adorable. It reads with an almost serious tone as you understand Haru and their very careful nature of considering how everything affects a given situation, but also adds a lot of humor Dupin who just wanted a normal trainer who goes around battling wild Pokemon like a sane person.

Venominon  - A Shocking Debut! Rock On, Team Toxic! zapdoszulu.proboards.com/post/283847

I like this post because it gives us a strong impression of Venom and Grimer’s character motivations and tells us what Team Toxic is all about: ninja honor, helping Poison types in need, and the bond they share as they venture forth to solve the mystery of the spooky tunnel. The whole thread is a fun read (shoutout to the mods for making me a fan of Steve the Gastly and his friend).

Fox  - Starting the Case zapdoszulu.proboards.com/post/285173

I enjoyed how this post gives us a peek inside Haru’s detective brain, and how Haru perceives little things about Takara that could be missed by the average observer, much like Sherlock Holmes. But it’s also an insightful character piece, because even then Haru isn’t satisfied with just five observations. That perfectionist streak can be both a hindrance and a help, so I’ll look forward to seeing how it drives Haru in future posts.

Incentives: Money please 🙏

Got dis!

Nominating:nategrey

Reason: I like how the Vivillon was showing exhaustion from battling since we don't use here. And also how Levi was recommending the trainer to the cyndaquil.

Link to Post: (Zu)Batting an Eye
Nominating: AshenPhoenix

Reason: I admire how Ashen was able to have Crow take the L there, being outsmarted by Silver, and I enjoyed reading his thoughts after. Looking forward to see if he will take revenge in the future?

[Snover]

Link to Post: zapdoszulu.proboards.com/thread/21127/sky-limit-gym-battle
Nominating: AshenPhoenix

Reason: Crow is such a goofy guy. Makes him a pretty likable character in some ways. Also, he really gave Falkner some HEAT. Best part was when his Rotom Phone simulated nuclear explosions. Isn't that such a relaxing ringtone?

Nominating: Steph

Reason: Daisy's thought process has been highly entertaining to read in general, being an 11 year old girl still fascinated with superhero stories. I love all the little details (rubber duckie, inventing attack names) that Steph puts in to really bring the story to life!
