Confused Pokemon Adventure (35-38) (Patreon)

Whew! Last story update for June!

I have to admit, this one fought me pretty hard, too. Far more so than usual for any of my stories. I think the end result turned out okay, but it was frustrating at the time. There are a few reasons for it, one of which I intend to create a discussion post for tomorrow, but that's neither here nor there for now. It's also slightly on the shorter side, being only just over 9600 words, but that actually didn't have anything to do with it fighting me. It was just where the natural endpoint was. If I'd tried to push on farther it would have become a full cliffhanger, rather than just a minor/partial one as it stands.

Anyway! As usual, the new stuff is here, while I will be updating the pinned post of master files shortly. Normally, I also add author's notes in the comments, but the only thing I honestly feel needs to be properly addressed requires a more dedicated discussion location than that. Hence the plan to put up a separate post tomorrow, once people have a chance to read this release :-). For now, enjoy more of A Very Confused Pokémon Adventure!
