Trivia[]

  • The series uses Gen VII movesets and move tutors based on the Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon games. TMs are based on the Let's Go games in most cases.
    • These were the most recent generation with all Pokémon available, to keep consistency with later series.
    • Despite being set in the Kanto region, the series does not use the Let's Go games' movesets. This is due to the lack of modern moves and move tutors, which the author wants to include.
  • The main inspirations of the series are the games, the Adventures manga, and the anime.
