Pokemon: I Have a Pair of Appraising Eyes

Pokemon story + slow burn (because it follows Ash's journey one step at a time) + blended with reality (probably starting in the middle) + reborn + a System with little practical use that can grow, purely for support “Who says my old buddy can't fly? Step up and eat a Precipice Blade!” In public: “What rare Pokemon? Mine are just like yours. I'll say it again, Lord Bai doesn't use cheats!” In private: “Heh heh heh, all these hidden items are mine!” “What? A Legendary Pokemon has appeared? You can't beat it, so stand back and let me handle it!” “Hey, buddy, your Charmander's talent is no good. Seriously, unless you really love it, you should switch it out!” In this familiar yet strange Pokemon world, Bai Ye follows in Ash's footsteps, traveling through every region one step at a time until he finally reaches the top. As a seasoned man reborn, Bai Ye has just one thing to say when countless reporters interview him: “I'm invincible. Do as you please!” This story leans toward realism and incorporates some elements from the games, but mostly follows the anime's plot. After all, turn-based games are really kind of... This book combines content from the games and the anime. It may include Dynamax, Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, and Terastallization from the later Scarlet and Violet games (possibly).
