It's time for episode 15! I'm excited for this one. It turned out a bit shorter then I thought, and it's not so heavy on the action. But something really important happens!
Teejay and Gardevoir visit a theme park, but struggle to confess their feelings.
As always, I really like getting feedback in the comments, so tell me your favorite/least favorite parts!

OH NO!!!! Because Gardevoir smashed her own Pokeball, she became a Dark Pokemon again! And what's worse, Teejay is dead! This is horrible!
I can't wait to see the next episode!
It was interesting seeing them take a break around the carnival, and I was glad to see Teejay's other pokemon get involved as well. And apparently Ferris wheels are just good places for character building scenes. I half expected Persian/Meowth to go eldritch again, but if he's hiding that side of himself from Jesse & James, I'm looking forward to finding out why. That group has always been rather close knit, after all. A fact that I was glad to see you make use of with a little skullduggery. And I hope that the next episode delivers on Gardevoir's wrath (though I personally thought she'd be more indiscriminate).
I can tell that the battles are here to stay, and if you'll forgive the unsolicited advice, perhaps you could speed up the health bar movement? Also the attack animations? Just a suggestion.
Anyway, pleasantly surprised to see you post three weeks in a row. Hope you're still enjoying making them!
Thanks for the feedback. Those aren't bad suggestions. Speeding up the health drain is easily done. Though it maybe next season before I can fix the attack animations.
It's been quite a while since I've delved into the wacky adventures of Teejay and friends. Had to double back and rewatch what I've missed since ep 8.
So far things are progressing pretty well. The twist ending was actually quite good and I'm interested to see what direction you take that in. One major gripe I have is the Pokemon battles. I know back in the day of .swf you used to program the battles as interactive segments the viewer could partake in (and potentially lose if I recall) but now that flash player is deader than disco perhaps consider a more streamlined approach to battles? Not going to lie, I skipped right to the end of every single one because we all know Teejay is going to win.
Also the direction you are taking Gardevoir and Teejay's relationship is... bold to say the least. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not one of these backwards savages that think a trainer shouldn't be able to bang their Pokemon but the way their relationship is written feels more like toxic co-dependency than an actual mutual love/relationship. Gard flying off the handle with jealously when a female NPC looks in their direction and Teejay only getting annoyed with her or shrugging it off instead of the two of them talking/showing genuine care for each other etc. Hopefully this is all a means to an end in your upcoming episodes.
Overall I look forward to seeing more.
Hey, good to hear from you again and thanks for the feedback.
I agree that the battles can drag on, so I've started adding things like jumpcuts, one hit KOs, etc. to shorten their time. But I can't remove them completely.
If I remember correctly, you were outspoken against the Teejay/Gardevoir relationship back in the day too. Your analysis of their relationship isn't wrong (maybe a little exaggerated). But despite becoming a couple, their overall interactions with each other won't change much. The romance thing is a sub plot after all, not the focus of the series.
Yikes,
Wasn't expecting that ending.
Now I'm even more eager for the next episode.
