History Fanfic / TurningOverANewLeaf

Using the reincarnation mechanics popularised by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1359416/srgeman srgeman's]] fanfic ''Fanfic/ALittleNightMusic'', and AU versions of ''Manga/PokemonAdventures'' characters, the story follows [[OriginalCharacter Skye Royall]], a 16 year old girl who murdered one evening in her home town of Newbark Town. She is soon reborn as Chikorita through the help of rather unusual [[OlympusMons Mew and Celebi]] and after living a few months in the wild captured by a talented young trainer named Silver. Things are looking up but the newly nicknamed Chi has failed to take into account two very important things: Her murderer might still be on the loose, and not everyone is content to leave matters up to the police...

* WriteWhatYouKnow: See Author Avatar above, also Word of God says that many other characters were based on people she knows in Real Life.

* CategoryTraitor: Pokémon new to Silver's team often have to deal with Scarlet accusing them of this.

** Likewise [[spoiler:Scarlet]] will NEVER eat an egg laid by a Pokémon.

* HatesBeingTouched: Silver, though being touched by his own Pokémon doesn't seem to count.

* CategoryTraitor: Pokémon new to Silver's team often have to deal with Scarlet accusing them of this.

** Likewise [[spoiler:Scarlet]] will NEVER eat an egg laid by a Pokémon.

* HairTriggerTemper: Given how Scarlet interprets good and evil…

* HatesBeingTouched: Silver, though being touched by his own Pokémon doesn't seem to count.

Things are looking up but the newly nicknamed Chi has failed to take into account two very important things: Her murderer might still be on the loose, and not everyone is content to leave matters up to the police...

* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Chi is a fairly mild example but practically every piece of conversation (and narration) gets derailed at some point before she remembers she’s supposed to be telling the story.

* BrokenBird: Scarlet, far, far more than you’d believe.
* CategoryTraitor: Pokémon new to Silver’s team often have to deal with Scarlet accusing them of this.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Scarlet is a platonic version, though due to the language barrier Silver doesn’t notice it at all.

* DoesNotLikeSpam: Teal, though it’s more ‘Loves Sea Creatures So Much That screaming Results If They Are Eaten In Front Of Her’.
** [[spoiler:Likewise Scarlet will NEVER eat an egg laid by a Pokémon.]]
* GuiltComplex: Chi‘s guilt trips are rarely serious, generally don’t last long due AttentionDeficitOohShiny and lampshades how often she gets them herself, but they are a consistent part of her personality and Word Of God warns that they might get worse later on.

* HatesBeingTouched: Silver, though being touched by his own Pokémon doesn’t seem to count.
* HonorBeforeReason: If it doesn’t interfere with protecting Silver, Scarlet has this bad.
* IndyPloy: Pretty much everything Gold does to find Skye’s killer is him grasping at straws. [[spoiler:Which is why the Newbark town cops were ok which sending him out to look for clues on their behalf; they honestly didn’t think he’d find anything.]]
** Chi also tends to use these but unlike Gold, hers don’t usually work so well.
* InnerMonologueConversation: Even not counting the entire narration, Chi still has many moments of inner monologue. Silver also gets his turn in chapter 8

* LoveMartyr/LoveMakesYouCrazy: A platonic variation, Scarlet towards Silver.

* TheDitherer: Chi usually only has trouble due to AttentionDeficitOohShiny, but can go from Wishy-washy to Empathic Fence sitting [[ if she actually stops to think about what she’s doing]].

[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5382708/1/Turning_over_a_new_Leaf Turning over a New Leaf]] is an ongoing Franchise/{{Pokemon}} FanFic by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1873578/lil_white_Raven lil' white Raven]] who also goes by the name {{Tropers/Faislittlewhiteraven}} here and elsewhere on the web.

Though the fic itself hasn't been updated past [[WritersBlock chapter 8 in over two years]], the author still regularly churns out fanart and design sheets of the characters, all of which can be found in her [[http://faislittlewhiteraven.deviantart.com/ DeviantART gallery]]. There's also the first two pages of a Doujinshi the author is trying to draw for the series, but given her track record... A full chapter might take a while.

!! Turning over a New Leaf provides examples of:

* AuthorAvatar: Word Of God says Chi is one but hopes her writing is good enough to it from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MarySue becoming an issue]].
* Badass:

* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: Scarlet views the entire world like this, though in her case ‘Good’ is replaced by ‘Anything that does not harm, threaten or upset Silver in anyway’ and ‘Evil’ with ‘Everything else’.
** [[spoiler:InternalizedCategorism: Scarlet also applies those rules to herself.]]
* [[spoiler:BrokenBird: Scarlet, far, far more than you’d believe.]]

* [[ClingyJealousGirl ClingyJealousSneasel:]] Scarlet is a platonic version, though due to the language barrier Silver doesn’t notice it at all.

* [[spoiler:DarkAndTroubledPast: Silver and Scarlet have plenty of experience with trauma.]]
* [[spoiler:DoesNotLikeSpam Does Not Like Seafood: Teal, though it’s more ‘Loves Sea Creatures So Much That screaming Results If They Are Eaten In Front Of Her’.]]

* LighterAndSofter: Compared to other reborn fics, Turning over a New Leaf is far more optimistic and innocent in both tone and setting, though part of it may be due to [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Cloudcuckoolander the narrator]] [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AttentionDeficitOohShiny constantly getting derailed by every little thing]].
* [[spoiler:LoveMartyr]]/LoveMakesYouCrazy: A platonic variation, Scarlet towards Silver.

* ZanyScheme: Chi comes up with one in Chapter 7 that somehow involves emailing her own trainer. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SeriesHiatus Shame we don’t know what it’s about yet.]]
