Ember & the Gang

This is a very long but somewhat important post.
This might be one of my last posts for now~

I want to finally let one of my OCs out of the closet. Please meet Ember.
So around the time the Let’s Go games came out, I started really getting back into Pokémon. Essentially these games introduced me to the whole other side of the franchise that I still respect to this day.

The OC came from me imagining different stories a Pokemon character could experienced. Specifically, this guy was designed after the blond variant of Chase. This is why he has a Pikachu.
And as for Vaporeon… please do not think ill of me. I had no nefarious intentions when assigning him this Pokémon. I simply wanted to complete the Fire-Electric-Water trio. Young me would never have thought years later this Pokémon would be ruined in such a disgusting… :(

Alright, back to the main reason I post this.
During the Pandemic, I figured I can’t just let this guy sit around.
Thus, I have decided to make a comic. I wanted to do something similar to how Ash travelled across multiple regions. Hoenn was at the time (and to this day) my favourite region, thus I decided to skip the first 2 and move straight onto volume 3!
So I did.
I only finished working on it completely February 2025. Yes! It took a long time cuz this freaking comic was 400 ish pages long and took roughly 5 years to make.

But here the dilemma starts. I have never even posted anything related to it anywhere on the internet. Only ever showed to close irl schoolmates. There are a lot of things about it that I would want to change since a lot of time has passed, and my knowledge on comic making grew. Some things such as horrible passing (hence the 400 pages) and a horrible jump in art skill from first to last page… it just isn’t really a good reading experience overall.
But I guess, it isn’t really a piece of literature, more like a diary of visual progress.

My question is, should I still post it one day? Even if it is very mid at best, would anyone in here still want to read through? Even if just to see the progress and stuff?
I would love to hear your thoughts.
And if you read this far, thank you.

Ps: for those wandering, YES, silly me decided to make a second one. This time it’s Unova based :D
As to me, the writing of the new one is much better. At least I have a script this time around, not just scene ideas haha. Only at around 60ish pages out of Arceus knows how many, but see you in 5 years when it’s done
