* OneSceneWonder: Everyone was pleasantly surprised when Lt. Surge appeared in the last chapter of the first story.

** Also, [[{{Kuudere}} Larvitar]], [[{{Keet}} Phanpy]], and [[spoiler: [[TeamMom Pidgeot]]]].

* AttentionDeficitCreatorDisorder: After posting the first three chapters of ANCFA monthly, the story wasn't updated for over four months. This is because the author diverted his attention to his other stories - one a ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8068957/1/Stopping_The_Storm massive oneshot]]'' which grew beyond the predicted word count. Now that S.T.S. has been completed, he looks to be back on track again.

* [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld Really 109 years old]]: Latias and her brother.

It's also worth checking out the author's other stories: [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6575222/1/Gods_And_Mortals Gods And Mortals]] and [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8068957/1/Stopping_The_Storm Stopping The Storm]].

* AttentionCreatorDeficitDisorder: After posting the first three chapters of "Adventure" monthly, the story hasn't been updated for almost four months. This is because the author diverted his attention to his other two stories, one being a oneshot which grew beyond the predicted word count. Mercifully, his schedule looks to have stabilised if his updated profile is any indication.

* FixFic: Obviously.

* {{Flanderisation}}: Macey, the Fire-type trainer who Ash faced in the Silver Conference, is reduced to being (and being regarded as) a shallow FanGirl who crushes on Ash. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that Ash [[ForWantOfANail doesn't save her life as he did in canon]], and so there's less justification for her crush on him ''here'' as a result.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: Despite the wishes of [[spoiler: Ash's adoring fans]], this is averted for the most part - while Ash does use Latios frequently and takes out some of his strongest adversaries with him, he tries hard to make use of his other strong Pokémon and his abilities as a GuileHero. This is especially evident after Latios is put out of commission from the battle with Harrison. The experience is used by the author to give Ash a learning curve as a trainer.

* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler: Lance, who wants to take Latios to train him, whether Latios want him to or not. He gets better though.]]

''A New Chance'' is an AU {{Pokemon}} FanFic series written by author [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2090198/ARCEUS_master ARCEUS-master]] and based in Fanfiction.Net. Started in early 2010, it is so far comprised of two stories:

The first story in the series, A New Chance at Life, was started in Feb. 16th 2010 and completed on May 26th 2011. The story starts at the end of [[PokemonHeroes Movie #5]], where [[OlympusMons Latios']] HeroicSacrifice is averted, so now the dragon is very much alive. Out of gratitude and a desire for adventure, Latios and his sister Latias decide to join Ash on his adventure. The story covers the remainder of Ash's journey's through the Johto Region (based on the author's [[WildMassGuessing belief regarding the location of Altomare]]), up until the conclusion of the Silver Conference and its immediate aftermath. It ends with a SequelHook leading up to our heroes' adventures in the Hoenn Region.

* BigEater: Ash really loves eating, and constantly asks others when it is time to. Larvitar could also count, since he steals other pokemon's food when they aren't looking.

---> *Pokemon X does Y*
--->'''Announcer''': Pokemon X has just Y'd!

* ForWantOfANail: Because the events are paced differently, a number of events happen differently - most notably, Ash and Co. weren't there in time to stop Larvitar's mother from being captured by the poachers; add to that [[CoolBigSis Latias]] coaxing him (and Ash's growing maturity), which results in Larvitar actually ''becoming'' Ash's Pokemon rather than a mere GuestStarPartyMember.

* HeroicRROD: Latios finishes off the toughest of Harrison's pokemon, but is so injured that he couldn't recover properly in the time before the next match. This eventually costs Ash the tournament.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: Despite the wishes of [[spoiler: Ash's adoring fans]], this is averted for the most part - while Ash does use Latios frequently and takes out some of his strongest adversaries with him, he tries hard to make use of his other strong Pokemon and his abilities as a GuileHero. This is especially evident after Latios is put out of commission from the battle with Harrison. The experience is used by the author to give Ash a learning curve as a trainer.

* TrueCompanions: So very much - in particular, Phanpy considers the {{Pokemon}} he's closest to among Ash's team (and a few others, as well) as his family.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Latios is convinced to drop his inivisbilty in Ch.1 of the second story, but instead of causing a stampede of young trainers eager to see an [[OlympusMons legendary Pokemon]], he only recives a few incredulous stares.

* WhoWouldBeStupidEnough: [[ContinuityNod The magikarp salesman]] tries to sell Ash a golden Pidgey that supposedly can lay golden eggs. Latios, Latias, and Pikachu easily see through his charade, but Ash only realizes this after his pokemon tell him. Humorously, Team Rocket falls for it.

* NeverLiveItDown: [[RunningGag Pikachu and bikes]]. From Chapter 2, after Pikachu's Thunder attack destroys Team Rocket's mecha and is releasing stray electrical bolts:

* AssPull: {{Lampshaded}} and refered to by name when Pikachu is kidnapped by Team Rocket. Despite being broke enough to resort to stealing food, Team Rocket somehow has access to advanced equipment like headbands infused with dark-type energy and giant electricity-absorbing robots.

** It's effectively Lampshaded, too.

* HeroStoleMyBike: Again like the main series, Ash "borrows" May's bike to look for Professor Birch. Unlike the series, Latios intervenes in time to save [[RunningGag her bike from being barbequed]].

* EvilGenius: Professor [[strike: Number]] Namba and Sebastian, just like in the anime.

* MyNameIsNotDurwood: As per canon, [[strike: Buffalo Bill and Doctor Simba]] Butch and Professor Namba experience this a lot.

* {{Nakama}}: So very much - in particular, Phanpy considers the {{Pokemon}} he's closest to among Ash's team (and a few others, as well) as his family.
