History FanFic / NeonGenesisEvangeleMon

* SignatureMove: Besides their Legendary Pokémon, most of the main characters have at least one non-legendary Pokémon that they are strongly associated with. These include [[HeartwarmingOrphan Cubone]] for Shinji, [[ManiacMonkeys Primeape]] for Asuka, [[PoisonousPerson Toxicroak]] for Mari, [[EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs Tropius]] for Kaji, [[CatsAreMagic Espeon]] for Ritsuko, and [[DragonsAreDemonic Hydreigon]] for Gendo.

One day, a bored and somewhat lazy college student asked himself, ''What if Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion had been made in the world of Franchise/{{Pokemon}}? How would the story be different--and more importantly, what might remain the same?'' This fanfic was the result. To put it simply, Neon Genesis EvangeléMon is a FusionFic placing the cast of ''Neon Genesis Evangelion'' in the world of ''Pokémon.''

Shinji Ikai is 14 years old, and has been summoned by his father to become a "Legendary Pokémon Trainer" at the headquarters of NERV in Pallet Town 3. Travelling with him is his loyal companion, a Cubone which was a gift from his deceased mother. Once there, he discovers what he has truly been called over to do. The scientists at NERV have succeeded in reconstructing one of the most powerful Pokémon of all--the Bug/Steel-type Legendary Genesect--in order to battle the other Legendary Pokémon that have begun attacking Pallet Town 3. And Shinji has been chosen to be its trainer.

** Why does Asuka have a Primeape? Besides the [[{{Tsundere}} obvious]] [[{{AlphaBitch}} personality]] [[{{HairTriggerTemper}} similarities]], it's also a reference to the little stuffed monkey she had.

* GRatedDrug: Misato's "Shuckle Juice".

* CelebrityVoiceActor: Parodied with Asuka's Primeape, who talks and acts like Creator/HulkHogan, and Shinji's Sandslash, who likewise behaves like Creator/ClintEastwood (or, more accurately, like a stereotypical Clint Eastwood Western character).

* AnimalJingoism: Asuka has a Zangoose (a Pokémon based on a mongoose). Mari has a Seviper (a Pokémon based on a snake). You do the math.

The fanfic has undergone numerous hiatuses and updates relatively slowly (the author began writing it in 2013), however the author's intent is to have it complete by the time the fourth ''Film/RebuildOfEvangelion'' movie is released. There are intended to be 27 chapters or "episodes"--one for each episode of the Evangelion anime, plus one based on the movie ''The End Of Evangelion''. It can be currently be read on the EvaGeeks forum, with illustrations found on the author's Website/DeviantArt account, along with bios of the characters.

** Sandslash frequently quotes Creator/ClintEastwood, while Primeape talks and acts like Creator/HulkHogan. Mari's Toxicroak likewise [[spoiler: talks like Creator/MrT.]]

* CombatMedic: Ritsuko's Chansey.

* RetiredBadass: Misato's Gyarados, who is the oldest of her Pokémon but can still pack a punch.
* RightHandAttackDog: Gendo's Hydreigon is a right-hand attack ''dragon''.
* SouthernBelle: Shinji's Pidgeotto's PokemonSpeak is subtitled with a thick Southern accent.

* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: The characters do this on a regular basis.
* DragonRider: Gendo often flies on the back of his Hydreigon to travel.
* EverythingsBetterWithSparkles: Misato's Empoleon and Mana Kirishima's Butterfree are both Shiny Pokémon.
* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: The role of Pen-pen in this version is played by Misato's Empoleon.

*** There are also a lot of Expies of individual characters from the Pokémon games and anime. For example, Shinji's Cubone [[spoiler: later Marowak]] is very similar in its relationship with him to Ash's Pikachu, while his Sandslash resembles Ash's Charizard and Sceptile. Likewise, Kaji's Mawile has a tendency to bite down on his head whenever it is released from its Poké Ball, much like James's Victreebel and Carnivine. Gendo Ikari having a Hydreigon is a nod to Ghetsis from VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite, another villainous father figure. Finally, [[TheRival Toji Suzuhara]] is turned into a clear Expy of Gary Oak, including having similar Pokémon (Arcanine and Dodrio) and even saying Gary's "Smell ya later" CatchPhrase.

* FiveManBand: Shinji's Pokémon could be said to form one. Genesect is the BigGood, Cubone is TheHero, Sandslash is TheLancer, Raticate is TheSmartGuy, Pidgeotto is TheChick, and Furret is TheBigGuy.

* HeroesLoveDogs: Toji might be a bit stuck-up, but he clearly loves his Arcanine.

* Animal Jingoism: Asuka has a Zangoose (a Pokémon based on a mongoose). Mari has a Seviper (a Pokémon based on a snake). You do the math.

* ShoutOut: The story is full of in-jokes relating to the original Pokémon and Evangelion anime series.
** When Shinji is using Genesect to battle Sylph Co.'s Jet Rhydon (the story's equivalent of the Jet Alone robot) he tells it to " [[MemeticMutation Aim for the horn!]]"
** At one point, Pen-pen (here portrayed as an Empoleon) actually says "[[Anime/Pokemon2000 I could use pants.]]"
** When Asuka tells Shinji to "think in Hoennian", the first phrase he comes up with is "I erd u liek Mudkips." She promptly smacks him.
** Instead of "God's In His Heaven, All's Right With The World", the NERV slogan is "To Protect The World From Devastation, To Unite All People Within Our Nation."
