Writing good dialogue can be a challenge.
I struggled with it when writing Cereus & Limnic. I was afraid my characters would speak stiff and unnaturally.

In this video I discuss two ways that I improved how I wrote character speech. As well as what all good dialogue should do.
I also cover how two of my characters are based on two favorites from Season 1 of Pokemon, which leads into how to make characters more memorable.
