History Fanfic / LatiasJourney

* FireAndBrimstoneHell: Missingno's realm looks a lot like this.

--> '''Bayleef:''' "What is it with people and stupid acronyms these days!"

* HateSink: Almost all of the minor villains are this.

* HeroesPreferSwords: [[DashingHispanic Zorro and El Gato]].
* HoldYourHippogriffs: Many times.

** Drew - er, Tuxedo Masquerain's Senshibot

* EvilMakesYouUgly: Anyone and anything that goes over to TheDarkSide, whether by choice or by force[[note]]And it usually IS by force[[/note]] suffers generally a ''lot'' of BodyHorror.
* {{Expy}}: A lot of people, if they don't outright {{Cameo}}.
* FaceFault: Used as a verb.

* SweatDrop: Used as a verb.

* TeamRocketWins: Being a Pokemon fanfic, this trope is literal sometimes.

* WhyWontYouDie: Often said against the undead horrors toward the end of the story.

* {{Gorn}}: The torture scenes and final battle chapters are ''quite'' gory. Taken UpToEleven in the final arc.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Trust us on this one.

** Most members of [[spoiler:Team Rocket]] get grizzly ends.

** [[spoiler:May and her Pokemon.]]

* DarkFic: When it's not being [[SlidingScaleOfComedyAndHorror funny]]. Or sometimes [[BlackComedy both at the same time]].

* ParodySue: ''Three'', explicitly by name. The first is...uh, [[MeaningfulName Mary Sue]], who captures Latias and a bunch of other OlympusMons with a ton of Master Balls. [[spoiler: She turns out to be a normal girl who's just under the influence of the demons in the Master Balls.]] Another one is Berry Stoo, an EldritchAbomination that ''creates more'' via TheCorruption.

** Even key story arcs like Latias and Rayquaza's questionble ReincarnationRomance are mostly told through exposition, while the more gruesome elements of the story, like the BodyHorror, {{Squick}}, and repeated used of rape are described in excrutiating detail.
* SlidingScaleOfComedyAndHorror: Breaks both ends of the scale. Sometimes simultaneously.

** With their new Shadow Pokeon, Jessie and James capture Ash's Grovyle and almost take down Ash himself in Chapter 15.

* EldritchAbomination: Our line-up of villains are essentially this, all transformed into such monstrosities by Deoxys. The rogues gallery includes [[BigBad Deoxys]] himself, who is the alien personification of ChaoticEvil; [[TheGMIsACheatingBastard Mewgle]], a reality warping KillerGameMaster; [[MasterSwordsman Omega]], the fused form of Giovanni and [[CorruptCorporateExecutive Mr. Ford]] the [[WellIntentionedExtremist Shining Ranger]]; [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain Meowth]] (yes, really!); [[PsychoRangers Alpha Ranger]], Ash's evil, soulless alter ego; [[{{Hellhound}} Cerberus]], the undead fusion of Entei, Suicune, and Raikou; Lugia's corrupted wife and child; Leviathan, an enormous Ghost Pokemon-devouring serpent who is actually [[spoiler:Latias' undead mother]]; and Deoxys' "son" [[spoiler:Dark Latios]].

* {{Troperiffic}}: By the time the sequel rolls around, Creator/Ri2 is a confirmed [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife troper]].

** The Pokerangers' [[UnfortunateNames A.S.S. Megaloid]].

* EarnYourHappyEnding: Full force. Our heroes have to fight an army of demons and their EldritchAbomination masters. They get brutalized, tortured, or flat out killed at every turn in an attempt to save the world, or what's left of it. And keep in mind the "happy ending" Unown are offering the good guys if they win is basically a ResetButton. The hope of this may at times be [[DarknessInducedAudienceApathy the only reason you can keep bearing to read]].

The much shorter prequel is [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1969593/1/Your_Secret_Admirer here]]. It has a sequel of similar length called ''FanFic/BraveNewWorld''.

* [[spoiler:TheDogShotFirst: The final chapter {{Retcon}}s the beginning of the story as Kyogre forcing the Ghost King to destroy Alto Mare via mind control.]]
