Description  || 

The fact that a whole lot (I'm sure 90% is merely an exaggeration for the sake of comedy, hahaha) of the plot twists in these Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games seem to stem from douchebag Pokemon trying to deceive naive Pokemon/the heroes was something I've always felt was a thing in at least the first two installments of the series, (Red/Blue Rescue Team and Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky). However, it wasn't until...recently...*ahem*...that I finally seemed to notice just how prevalent this story element was. Which is really quite amazing, especially considering how much I personally hate the trope and wasn't taking any more of it by the time *cough* Undertale *cough Flowey cough* came around. But better late than never, am I right?

Also, MAJOR SPOILERS for Special Episode 5: In the Future of Darkness incoming for these next two comics!

The script is the main villain if you think about it XD

It's always part of the script when the plot twists happen or not, so if you want to blame someone/something for a plot twist, blame the script XD

You're not the only one who's reading the script, Grovyle! ^^

It's only fair everyone gets a go with the script, after all.

This comic is hilarious, and also exactly the kind of stuff I need today~ 
And I wasn't expecting you to cover In the Future of Darkness as well... Nice~

Heh, admittedly, a big part of the direction these comics go in comes from what I am personally invested in...which makes sense, as otherwise, I don't think I'd be able to think of jokes that are quite as funny. And Grovyle and Dusknoir as characters definitely grabbed my attention so far more than everyone else that it's not even fair, so of course I'd end up thinking of a few things for even Special Episode 5 as well.

(In contrast, Undertale is a bit of a different case since, while it's true that I'd pick Mettaton as my #1 favorite if I had to choose, every single character there is so interesting that if I ended up doing a comic series on that game, I'd most likely give all the characters almost equal attention. True, Mettaton would still get the most, but his treatment wouldn't be nearly as one-sided as it is with Grovyle and Dusknoir here.)

The smile on Dusknoir's chest in the second and last panel though.
