Description
On a remote planet, life had always been the same. The same cycle of birth and death, over and over.
That is, until one day, the world changed. Beings from out there, out of the endless beyond came to the planet and nothing would ever be the same. The cycle would be forever changed.

- FenraeDraconisRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0This is now in my top favorites... Even if Scarlet is a bit more on the evil side, I'm still drawn to her as a character. I can understand how society would have influenced and created her and am so looking forward to seeing how she grows and changes as she gains in power.
- SethranRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0basically psionic Pokemon with more realism and less child-friendly shit.
- ikorackRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Not a lit rpg, but definite progression fantasy elements. The whole world is interesting so far. As the other guy said pokemon type creatures with psionic trainers. lead seems to be an anti parady of red from pokemon.
- HiddenslothRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5Some basic faults with sentence continuity can be jarring.
Otherwise an enjoyable read about a sci fi pokemon story. - MecanimusRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5Spec-ops psion meets Pokemon, by the author of "A jaded life."
Follow Scarlett as she does her best to survive planet Verdun's cutthroat environment. As one of the psions on this prison planet, she is charged with gathering crystals by defeating wild monsters with her own with a pokemon-like system. This is no vacation, because resources are limited, she is competing with other psions for resources and there are very few people she can trust, including the authorities... In this merciless world, salvation will come from power and ruthlessness. - BeyogiRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5Well, the title basically says it all. The story is about a planet in a sci-fi world that hosts some pokemon expis that are harvested by the local interstellar polity for materials. Now the pokemon planet has some anti-technology field, so they can't do it directly and need psions to dominate the pokemon to have them fight and harvest for them.
Since the whole affair is pretty dangerous and we're talking an evil capitalist interstellar polity here they're using convicts as slave labour. That's where our protagonist comes in. Being a slum-grown psion she somehow managed to get in conflict with the heir of some megacorp and put her into coma. So she gets transferred to said planet to "protect" her from the vengeance of the Plutocrats.
This isn't the out-of-the-way post she expected, but a prison/death camp for the most hardy prisoners. Immediately proven in the introduction by Dr. Oak who quickly kills one of the prisoners for attacking him. Prison/labour camp power dynamics ensue especially since it becomes more and more clear this whole affair is for life. (Likely short life)
Overall I'm not sure why this is called a parody. It's just a grim dark version of pokemon with a hardass MC.
