I’d like to start off by apologizing for the lack of response in the last few days ... I was Sick.

I have gone through all the comments made by you guys, taken them into consideration and made some small changes [To those have already read- they don’t have a big impact] but they might improve the reading experience of new readers

1. Changed the ending- I have received several comments stating that the ending of every chapter need not be in an “grandiose way “I have removed the ending lines to some of the chapters to improve immersion

2. Mentioned Berthas age- Age is clearly mentioned [Approx. 30] in chapter 3 to Give the Story a Clearer timeline

3. Changed Fantina to Her Mother- Fantina would be too young at the time kai was battling her and thus I have changed the Gym leader to be Fantina’s mother instead [OC Character]- Chapter 8

4. Removed Mantyke- To address the issue of Magikarp not appearing as much in the chapters where Feebas was introduced, I am removing Mantyke which is not Relevant to the Story and Replaced it with Magikarp in Chapter 18

5. Added Time skip- In Chapter 8: The Silence of Departure, The time skip was not clearly mentioned creating confusion… have rectified this

6. Added certain events to explain her fear of Darkness: Some comments have rightly identified that the MCs Nyctophobia [Fear of Dark Places] / Claustrophobia were brough up too suddenly, to rectify this, I have mentioned certain events in to make them seem not sudden

The above were the changes Made to improve the story. The Following are the answers to the some of the Questions asked

1. Chapter Updates: Updates will be Weekly from now on. Every Monday. Will Try to release additional chapters once I have a decent Backlog

2. Character Not acting Her Mental Age: I have seen several Comments stating that She does not act her mental Age and is childish, I wanted the character to behave her physical age and not her Mental age, though it will eventually catch up. The character is intentionally designed to act younger than her mental age. Despite possessing an 'old soul,' her physical body drives her emotions, making her behave like someone her physical age. You may ask, then why the need for reincarnation. For Knowledge. She will use knowledge that is not commonly known to the natives of the Pokémon world to her advantage. Certain things like Feebas evolution and certain meta training methods are not commonly known. Her reincarnation would be the reason why she knows such knowledge.

3. Pacing/ Chapter length- Although some of you are happy with the pacing, several are not, I will try to increase the Pacing a bit to move things along and try to increase the Chapters Length

4. Pokémon Genders: Magikarp- Male; Feebas- Female

5. Villain- Final Boss/ Villian will be an OC character. Cyrus Will Not be a major Villain and will be a recurring character. But a small one

6. Romance- When I asked the poll regarding romance. I did not specify what kind leading to a misunderstanding. I meant that she would have a small crush on someone. similar to the one Serena had on Ash. But Since the Poll has decided that there would be no such thing. We can perhaps revisit this Once she is Older

7. Explicit Content- There will be NO explicit Sexual Content in this Fic

8. Harem- NO Harems/ Reverse Harems in this Fic

9. Pokephilia- No pokephilia. I Am Specifically Mentioning this as I am Seriously considering Vaporeon to be a member of Ariels team. To those of you who do not know what Pokephilia is or what Vaporeon has to do with it, Please Remain pure and Do NOT search those Terms [They are NSFW]

10. Competitive Battling Terms: in the Upcoming Chapters, I may include certain Terms like nature, ability and IV/EV training. Knowledge of such terms is not required to really enjoy the Story. I may have Magikarp fight and defeat one species of Pokémon to increase its EVs. But they won’t have a major impact on the story and can be ignored.

11. Nicknames Of Pokémon- All of Ariels Pokémon Will Be Named and you all will have a say in the nicknames. Speaking of which there is a poll at the end of the chapter to name Magikarp

12. Kai’s Pokémon- Kai still has his Pokémon. Some are evolved, some or not. He May or may not end up participating in Contests.

13. Pokémon Contests- I have read some of the works which have contests in them as suggested by you guys. Loved them. Thank you for your suggestions

I believe that I have replied to all of your comments, If I have accidentally missed any, I Apologize
