Not Rusty but Needs Polish
The story takes place with two trainers Dia and Pearl are trying to be comedians. They accidently mistaken as the unknown girl’s bodyguards and they think she is their tour guide. Mistaken identity will be the plot to this story. The motivation for the badge collecting is to regain the unknown girl’s piplup’s confidence. The is an unknown lady who wears diamond ring in one hand and pearl ring in the other which is blunt foreshadowing. The gyms seems to follow the games but we don’t see that much challenge to the trainer making the fights end little too quickly. It is not fast as the previous Diamond and Pearl series. It is an improvement, but is far from being fixed.
Dia and Pearl jokes are like cartoon version Professor Oak poems which means they are time filler but provides information on pokemon and nowhere close of worth remembering other than knowing the mechanics of pokemon.
It is an ok start so I will give it three stars an ok score but the second one is needed to confirm worth reading or not.
