To be fair, as they explained, even professional chefs would be inconsistent. MC is practically making medicine, so the system taking control for a fully consistent product is very good. Could MC do it without the system, sure, but no two Pokeblock would be the exact same by hand.
Making pokeblocks required precise measurements and timing. A normal person may only master it through experience, and the quality of those pokeblocks would often vary. But for Cain, as long as he handed control over to the system, the pokeblocks would be identical every time, almost as if copied.

I'm a notorious double checker. If I'm 80% sure I heard the directions correctly, I'll repeat back what I was told (but abridged.) That way, if I'm wrong, I'm corrected on the spot. Bakers do it too, follow this exact recipe 100 times? You're still going to glance at it from time to time.
Ah, pokeblocks. One of the skills possessed by Pokemon breeders. As the owner of the system, how could he not make use of it? In his previous life, Cain was an excellent Pokemon breeder, though he had not been formally tested by the Association. The creation of pokeblocks was a specialty of his.

I probably would've risked it, trying to eat the Rattata, even if IRL I'd never risk eating a rat (even if starving) due to disease concerns. If that was the train of thought MC had, would've been nice to include it?
Picking up the hare, Murkrow flapped his wings twice and flew back to perch on Cain's shoulder. And as they continued deeper into the forest, a silent understanding formed between the man and his companion.

Oh my... More than 4 moves? Is there no move slot cap? If so, rich normal type trainers are going to be a MENNACE! Ya know how Mew is a nightmare competitively because it can learn almost any move? A good chunk of normal types have deep move pools to draw from, and with no maximum move count, they could counter almost any scenario. (Or just be stupid unpredictable.)

Nah man, suburbs are really bad. They're sprawling, car-dependent, waste of space, messes with horrible urban planning.
<div id="i4c-draggable-container" style="position: fixed; z-index: 1499; width: 0px; height: 0px;"><div data-reactroot="" class="resolved" style="all: initial;"></div></div>Seaside City, a metropolis located westward of Floral Forest Village, is among the largest cities in Mobius, with a population surpassing sixty thousand. It's made up of both normal, two or three-storey houses and skyscrapers several hundred feet tall, with apartment blocks in the middle, office buildings, a downtown near the city square, and outskirts that were too pleasing to the eye to be simple suburbs (not that suburbs are bad by themselves, or that there are bad suburbs, or-I'll be shutting now).

To be fair, it was kind of a slow fall, and its debatable if Sonic 3 is even canon to this timeline. (I mean, "Classic Sonic" is a different Sonic after all.)
"The equivalent of a bit more than twenty five tons of explosives going off at the same time." I replied, earning bewildered and scared looks from the group. "Say, do you know much damage could your island, which HAS to weight at least several thousand tons, do if it fell to the ground at sufficient speed, maybe because some echidna eventually became so obsessed with some random magic rock, or decided just like a black hedgehog that someone who was a villain will remain a villain, no matter how sincere they are at the attempts at becoming good people, and decided to take matters into his own hands by dropping an entire island on his head?"

Bloody hovercars... Tech bros always neglect actual public transit solutions like trains, subways, or trolley cars. Instead their minds jump straight to "we need a pod." Inefficient object or person moving devices like cars, helicopters, drones, or the infamous flying car.
Most important of all, however, was that because of their more efficient design, they could be made in more numbers and smaller. After that, I could continue with more ambitious and advanced stuff that nonetheless would be clean: hovercars, smart homes, trash-removal devices, superior methods of warm-generation for winter, maybe even a small ship for space tourism... The possibilities were limitless!

Wind turbines don't work 24/7. There is a minimum "speed" of rotation needed for the turbines to actually create power called the "cut-in speed." Even if you ignore that, there will be times of "low" power production and "high" power production you need to account for with battery storage. Ever have your lights cut out for 0.5-5 seconds? You need to find a solution to minimize those moments. (One of the easiest ways is by having back-up or supplementary sources of power.)
And then it hit me. Instead of building a single, giant-ass turbine for the entire village, I'd build many small ones for (and on) every house! Kinda like solar panels, except they would always work! And no, despite it being kinda funny, none of them would have to be miniature windmills.

What have you been smokin? Geothermal is VERY reliable, average system availability is 95% or higher! (For reference Coal and Nuclear tend to be around 60-70%.) It's only real problem is that it's working with a "limited" resource, the heat of the planet's core. A Geothermal plant would *slightly* speed up the eventual heat-death of the planet, but Volcanoes already do that naturally. (Scientists IRL estimate the Earth's iron core solidifying after another 91 billion years... For reference, our Sun will burn out in 5 billion years...)
Solar panels, while quite efficient, were also a bit fragile for my tastes, and they only absorbed direct sunlight. Nuclear energy, while the most powerful, was completely out of the question; not only would I need space to build a reactor, the villagers might not react well to having a nuclear factory in their home. Geothermal needed space, and wasn't that much reliable. And finally, there was no river or lake large enough for me to build a dam in, not if I wanted to remain hidden. So, I decided to use the simplest, oldest and overall most effective source of renewable energy I knew of.

As I said in response to the (now deleted) comment that pointed out the fact that MC is not an OC... It was poorly delivered to the reader, no mention or hint of the anime in this fic's descriptions, tags, title, entire first chapter... Only some commenters pointed it out. (Also I in hindsight, I got a silly number of likes to comments I made, thinking MC was an OC, so the problem is fairly common. "Tanya" isn't even that uncommon of a name.)
So after all this time waiting, Being X finally revealed that his master plan was to intimidate her by pitting her in a war against a pacifist monk child? How ridiculous. He'd even put her on the winning side at that. How could she possibly lose?

1st: Dust Release is a Kekkai Tota... 2nd: Its only *hinted* at not being genetic, as Mū taught Ōnoki... But the only other known users of Dust Release... Are clones of Ōnoki... (Even if Dust Release specifically, wasn't out-right genetic, I'd still call it an outlier.)
She would have liked to create an elemental Kekkei Genkai or train in some special high-level techniques, but that would require a great deal of time.

Kinda surprised MC didn't flirt with Haku. (Might seem a bit out of the blue, but hear me out... MC was a straight man in their past life, OG Sakura liked edgy boys. Already stated these "conflicting" orientations resulted in current MC being bi... Haku's a pretty great middle ground in that regard.)

Only real problems they had (especially during this arc in canon) was the absurd amount of handsigns needed, and needing to turn a ninja fight into a Pokemon battle... (Let's be real, only reason Zabuza managed to use it in a fight, is because he knew Kakashi would take the bait and copy him. Anyone without a Sharingan would've tried closing the gap instead.)
Kakashi nodded and pondered on her issue. It made sense that she could not use those two right now. Those were B and A ranked jutsu with high chakra requirement. If she had managed to execute them too then he would have to wonder if she had been replaced by a Kiri Jonin instead.

Wood Release is a genetic anomaly, like Haku's Ice Release, or Kimimaro's... Bones... Wood Release is more than simply Water + Earth, you need that genetic anomaly (like White Zetsu(s), Obito, and Madara got from Hashirama Cells...) So I'm gonna say no, unless the system keeps getting stronger and weirder.

This was a really bad play... Previously it was established that the system simply lets MC learn what to do, and streamline the training... She hasn't trained this Jutsu at all, does it perfectly first try, AND without hand signs? This 100% goes against what had been established before, and it's an even worse play to show Kakashi this... Screw "Itachi-level" talent, she's just gone above and beyond that with this showcase... (Terrible idea. Keep your trump cards secret.)
"Hidden in Mist Jutsu!" Sakura exclaimed softly. Kakashi watched as Mist accumulated quickly around Sakura before spreading out slowly. Within seconds, Kakashi was reminded of the battle between him Zabuza, as the thickness of the mist kept increasing.

Bad call in my opinion to tell Kakashi that. Should've really emphasized her work ethic (and intelligence) to figure it out, rather than saying, "I can just kinda learn stuff easy." (Rule 4 of having a system, ALWAYS over-emphasize how difficult doing a task is, when your system helps you do it. Try not to stand out, it's not being humble, its a survival tactic.)
"First day when you made us introduce ourselves. You used that Jutsu to leave. I have also been able to sense stuff like that in an instant. Its somewhat like your Sharingan. However I have to practice to use it perfectly." Sakura said.

Since everyone de-railed into talking about Byakugan + MC's System, here's me actually answering your question: Sharingan's main appeal is instant memorization & pattern recognition. You don't instantly master something with Sharingan, you learned a technique 5 years ago & want to finally use it a second time? I'd give ya a 50/50 success chance. MC's system however, fast-tracks the road to technique mastery. (Doing a technique when hardly thinking about it, in different contexts, & less / no hand signs required.) Still need practice, just much less than normal. (System + Sharingan = less practice needed.)
Kakashi looked at her in amazement. If Sakura could really do what she claimed, then Leaf elders would be clamoring to have her protected. So far this kind of ability has been limited to Sharingan. Yet it seems like Sakura has a Chakra Sensing version of similar effect. No matter if its a Kekkei Genkai or an ability acquired through talent, it makes her a valuable asset to the Leaf.

I would've tried holding back to be honest... Intentionally aim for a "mid-level" score,
