Reason: Seconding this! The flip on the well used bird vs. worm is great! A wonderful touch of turning the hunter into the victim. Really allows a show of character depending on which they decide to side with. I'm thirding this nomination!
Link to Post: On the Road AgainNominating: shard Reason: I love the actual struggle her character, Mikasi, goes through to get his Pokemon to work with him and get them into the battle. Seeing him react to a Pokemon that simply does not want to battle, and instead having to choose a different battler is very realistic as a possible struggle trainers may have to face.
Link to Post: The Day is Here [Mod] Nominating: lillisReason: It was fun to read how the 10 year old child, Lillis, had reacted to the wild Pidgey's theatrics! I definitely made me want to read more to read and see Lillis' and her Pokemon's interactions and subsequent battle with the Pidgey.
Link to Post: Winter WonderlandNominating: LamontReason: Having someone basically demand that you help them out and then getting upset that they demanded that you help them is realistic. It's almost satisfying to see Lamont's character react and demand that the child deal with her mess and her problems, herself, instead of seeing a character always "take the high road" in tough situations.
Link to Post A Storm is ComingNominating: HunterReason: I liked the way Tristan reaction to a rude trainer, both in throwing his own insults in order to take a jab at the other trainer, and in stepping up to try and teach the other trainer a lesson.
Link to Post: The Great EscapeNominating: alyssaimagineReason: This is seriously beautifully written. I loved getting a glimpse inside of the character's inner world while she observed the world around her, and learning seeing Pokemon flying so far out of reach and having something she didn't always have - the freedom that flying gave the Pokemon - made the character feel. It was also nice reading her reactions to the crying child. |

Link: Takin' it Easy (mod) Nominating: Caramell 🍬Reason: I can't help but throw this performance in ^^ The vision of a ditto screaming 'get off my lawn' [effectively] is just too good. What a great twist on the setup! Seconding this nomination!
Link: Never Back DownNominating: TaxxReason: I really like Vitra's attempts to understand what this is all about and how things are both frustrating and exciting at the same time! I also like how she persistantly tells the wild pokemon they come in peace ^^
Link: Starting SmallNominating: alyssaimagineReason: This really shows how unprepared Faith is and how little she knows about life and everything else that is a part of being a pokemon trainer. I also really like the glimpse into the pokemon's personalities and their reactions to each other. |

Thank you all so much for the vote! I'm really surprised! I was surprised when nominated and way more when I won, so thank you all so much once again! After much internal debate, I think I will go with a flying type egg, since I don't know if larvitar is in the draw lol, but lots of nice flying types. 
oh, and I want the 3K not the oval charm.  |

I just realized I never claimed my prize from November of last year, I would like to claim the breeder bundle and I can update the rare candy myself. I will save the oval charm usage for now but claim that over the money and finally a ghost type egg please.
Edit: The rare candy was updated to March's onventory.

I'll nominate this post by babypuff , because I think it's well written and kinda funny and I feel that her and Bulba are going to go through a lot on their journey lol. I saw more than one nomination in the previous month and think it is allowed, but tell me if it isn't. I'd also to nominate this post by Lamont . Well written and nice pace. Going from bratty kid to a suddenly very ill Pokemon, it was a good read! |

I second this nomination for basically the same reason. It's a very fun start seeing Babette completely out of her element and sharing that first pokémon excitement with us. I can't wait to read more when she gets into the thick of the wilds, haha!
Link: Down the Road I Go [Mod] Nominating: Tarlar Reason: What a great use of the weather to get a special lil' quest going! And it's such a nice throwback to the games tutorial too haha, but this time you're the old man lol Should be a fun little adventure.
Link: Next Goal: Training!Nominating: alyssaimagine Reason: Just a continuation of great quality posts. The time spent setting up the scene and carrying us through activities outside of battle is wonderful. |

Link to Post: EP.1 F/W/orG Starter I Chose You! Part 2Nominating: kinjosenchiReason: I love when a little thing really brings out the pokemon's personality and dynamic and it disturbing what is going on and needs to be handled. It is fun to see Emith's and Neji's argument in the middle of the battle.

Oh my gosh!! Thank you so much! I'm really excited to be nominated my first month here. Thanks for the nominations! I will choose the Breeder Bundle, and choose a Fairy egg, and I will take the 3,000 monies instead of the oval charm. Hopefully I did that right! <3
