Coffee Tier - Deleted Chapter Feb 2025

Author's Note:

Hey fellow coffee drinkers, sorry this is a little late. I had meant to release this on Singles Awareness Day, but got waylaid by all sorts of personal issues.

Anyways, this was originally part of Chapter 117 but it wasn't fitting with the flow of overall pacing, so I r...

Into the Unown Ch 103 (new)

Author's note:

This is a brand new, never before seen chapter, not a rewrite.

Also, there'll be a new chapter tomorrow, Wednesday.

I was hoping to delay a bit more since Chapter 113 needs a rewrite as well. But I'm really struggling with it and I decided to just released it as i...

Into the Unown Ch 100 & 101 (rewrite) + Ch 102 (new)

Changelog:

Ch 100 - Two new pages of content, but plotpoints remain the same.

CH 101 - Expanded into three chapters.

Ch 101 (new) - First half of original Ch 101 completely rewritten with only about 10-15% of text retained from the original.

Ch 102 (n...

Into the Unown Ch 110: Interlude

Announcement:

Before you proceed, just a quick announcement.

The next 2 week's release schedule is going to be very irregular. The reason being I need to do some rewrites.

I know that my last rewrites were quite minor but this one will be very extensive. So to give you guys some...

Into the Unown SS: Charlie Part 5

Recap:

Last we left off, Charlie had just earned his Boulder Badge at the Pewter Gym. Even managing to evolve his Poliwhirl into a Poliwrath.

When questioned by Brock afterwards, Charlie expressed an interest in visiting Fuchsia City and the Safari Zone. He was then recommended to hit...

Chapter 107

“Can anyone tell me, if two Pokemon from different species were to interbreed, which species would the resulting offspring be?”

“The female one!” said an eager student who raised her hands to answer. Nina recognized the girl as being from a fa...

Into the Unown Ch 96.5

Author's Note:

Bonus chapter release due to popular demand from the folks over at Royal Road. Had to gut about half of the original draft and rewrite it just to add a bit more depth to the story over Nina just being whiny the entire chapter.

I haven't had much time to proofread this s...

Into the Unown Ch 108

Chapter 106

Purple Shadow looked more put together. He took a shower, put on some clean clothes, and even shaved his face. Though Nina could tell he didn’t do a very good job of it, since there were visible knicks here and there. One would think that a ninja would be more profi...

Into the Unown Ch 107 & 107.5

Content Warning:

Same as Ch 103-104, there will be some depiction of violence. But if you're fine with both those chapters then 105.5 should be fine with you. And this should be the last of them as well.

And I know that some people will have already read this release because of...

Chapter 106

Author's note:

Sorry guys, I accidentally posted the wrong chapter. Oops. Guess I'm still a little sleep deprived.

For those of you who managed to catch my blunder, I'm really sorry. Think of it as a sneak peak I guess.

Anyways, here's the correct chapter.

***

Chapter 105

Content Warning:

There may be some depiction of gore ahead. Nothing too egregious I think; a bit of blood, some minor dismemberment. But I understand some people may be sensitive to this stuff.

If by any chance some of you have absolutely zero tolerance for any sort o...

Into the Unown Ch 104

Chapter 102

“Hmm… Let’s see here, Whismur, Hoothoot and Doduo. How in Arceus did someone teach their Hoothoot Uproar anyway?”

Nina was currently in that same hidden TM shop she found in Vermilion City last time. She had a few items in her to-do list. The ...

Into the Unown Ch 101

Chapter 101

Nina noticed that under the blue fuzz coating a Golbat’s body was a layer of relatively tough and leathery skin. She scratched at Brucey who was cooing in her arms while Nairy just looked on with a jealous gaze on the side.

Her new Golbat demanded a...

Into the Unown CH 92 & 93 (Rewrite)

Author's note:

As I mentioned previously, I wasn't too happy with the contents of chapter 92. And after receiving some mixed response from the general public for chapter 91, I decided to pull the trigger on a rewrite.

I say rewrite, but the plot points remain the same, only with some ...

Into the Unown SS: Charlie Part 4

A/N: Parts 3 and 4 were posted together in separate posts so make sure to read part 3 before reading part 4.

Into the Unown SS: Charlie Part 4

“Congratulations, you’ve earned the right to challenge our Gym Leader at the intermediate difficulty.”

Into the Unown SS: Charlie Part 3

Author's note:

Parts 3 and 4 were originally just meant to be one part but I got ahead of myself and ended up writing way too much. Hence I had to split them.

I will also post them separately in two different posts since the two parts combined together took up over 20 pages. In contex...

I just reuploaded this story on Scribble Hub. So for those of you who have an account there, feel free to stop by and say hi. Because everything is lookin...

I got my first fanart y'all!

Look at how good it looks! I've been looking at it at least once a day.

The artist's name is winterseeli on Tumblr and Winter_Sage on RR. Go check out their Tumblr page if you're so inclined. Tumblr might seem like a weird platform to be on in 2025, but it makes sense if you consider the fa...

Chapter 99

“I wonder what a Diglett’s full body looks like…”

“Dra.” Nairy nodded in agreement.

Nina had once asked Kerry about it, thinking that the apprentice Nurse Joy would have some knowledge about Diglett physiology. But the chee...

Into the Unown Ch 98

Scyther’s carapace felt unlike what Nina imagined. It was hard, of course. But texture wise, it was quite unique; very similar to how a leaf feels to touch — that distinctly smooth yet gummy texture of a leaf’s surface.

Then there were the Pokemon’s scythe blades which we...

Nintendo Switch 2 is announced!

The bigger form factor is much appreciated. But I really hope they fix that janky ass joystick.

Into the Unown Ch 96 & 97

Chapter 96

Beverly and Nina rushed into the dressing room to quickly get changed. It was a tight schedule since they had to redo the whole wedding ceremony in the main arena of the Cerulean Gym in skates. But luckily, they already had a makeup artist and other staff members on st...

Chapter 95

There were going to be two ceremonies for Misty and Ali’s wedding; one, a private ceremony  where only their closest friends and family were invited, and the other, a public one with an expanded guest list that was also going to be livestreamed.

Chapter 93

In the end, about a dozen children and nearly forty lost Pokemon were rescued from that particular Rocket den. Which really brought into question the competency of the local law enforcement. 

A fact that Misty made full use of as she mercilessly t...

Into the Unown SS: Charlie Part 2

Author's Note:

Got into a bit of a writing frenzy after I wrote part 1. It's a good thing that I don't have much going on today. So here's a bonus release.

I briefly considered withholding this in reserve, but thought my Patreons deserved better. So here you go.

Also, just as a ...

Author's note:

Hi everyone, I finally finished writing this short story thanks to a bout of insomnia.

But before you dig in, I'd like to first provide some context surrounding this.
