All Purpose Pokemon Fanfiction Thread

No, no, not that one. It's mentioned here.

So, I was asking myself what kind of Pokemon story I would read. The answer was, "Pantyhose Tarou, I Choose You!" or something where (the) Mewth is the protagonist.

I'd like to inquire if you know any story about a/the Mewth being snarky, badass or genre savvy.

Isn't standard anime!Meowth always snarky whenever his teammates or one of the "Twerps" does/says something rather stupid/silly/worthy of being snarked at?

Yeah, he kind of is (from what little of him I've seen). But, how often does he save the day, and is there any 'fiction of that?

Wouldn't know. I kinda gave up on searching for decent Pokemon fics years ago. Maybe I could start again, though...

... So it's that bad? I'm almost convinced to write my own short Pokefic. Almost.

It used to be that bad in the mid 2000's; not sure about now, though.

BTW, no feedback on my question on the previous page?

I remember a while back that there was a pretty well-written animeverse fic about what would happen had Jessie, James and Meowth never met the twerps. All of the chapters took place around season 1 of the anime...

By the way, I'm also trying to flesh out some Original Characters who are type specialists (and only have around 3 Pokemon each) as opposed to the more orthodox multitype, full-six teams in fic. Since the majority of canon characters have a type specialty and since part of this fic is me skewering canon/general tropes I've found in fic, I wanted each of them to have a mix of traits found in canon characters with the same type specialty as them, and traits you honestly are not going to expect for that type.

They're all adults and form a Dark-Psychic-Fighting triangle (Psychic and Fighting specialists are both women, Dark guy is a dude.)

Question: I'm looking for this old fic, but it's probably long been taken down now. I just thought I'd asked and see anyone remembered it.

The fic (which was back in the early years of Poke Fiction-the RBY era) starts with Mewtwo whom after escaping from the Rocket Base decided to go on a rampage in Viridian instead of doing the events of the Movie. He is confronted by Ash and his team who are quickly taken out with only Charizard left standing. Mewtwo is about to kill Charizard when Ash comes up from behind and kills Mewtwo with an Axe.

Yes you read that right Ash Ketchum. Kills Mewtwo. With an Axe. (Ash having never taken a life before is of course wracked with guilt afterwards)

From here the exact details get kind of blurry. IIRC This was back in the time where Gary was seen as a smug jerk and during the League used 1-Hit KO moves that nearly killed Pikachu and Charizard. Ash and Gary had a confrontation in the hospital afterwards where Ash came out on top after tearing verbally into Gary.

Oak built a Poke Speak translator that could be put in a person's ear.

There was a "sport tournament" that had TR plotting something in the background (Jessie and James (Mewoth was absent) had taken a level in Bad Ass). Ash raced on Primeape and there was a hockey game and Charizard got stuck in a goalie outfit. IIRC Pidgeotto learn to sword fight like a Farfetch'd apparently.

Ash and Charizard (or was it just Charizard?) have a dream where they are confronted by Mewtwo's ghost (I think...it's been years remember) . Ash unravels the TR plot and stops them from taking a stadium hostage. Ash and Gary then have a rematch and Ash wins

EDIT: IIRC the title was something like 'The Road to Redemption'.

Nope. Can't say I remembered it.

Anyone have any recommendations? I can't seem to find any good Pokemon fanfics. :T

I absolutely love I am Lucario... but other than that I have the same problem as you. I'd recommend the fic recommendations page, but it seems most of the stuff on there is not actually good.

This story Like No One Ever Was.

I just love how the author explored Ash and Pikachu's friendship with one another with all the ups and downs. This is also all from Pikachu's perspective.

Alright, dumping a random Pokemon fanfic draft that was based off a concept I may or may not have mentioned before.

So... I am currently working on a Pokemon fan-fic myself. It's a OC-centric anime-verse fic... yet I'm not exactly sure whether or not to say something more about it due to who the lead character is.

You don't say "an Officer Jenny" unless there is more than one "Officer Jenny" in town, I think. Each Officer Jenny is in charge of her own town/city/station, after all; same thing with the Nurses Joy, too.

IMO Pokemon Mystery Dungeon should have its own category on Fanfiction.net.

You know, I just had this question hit me: Is the plural of "Nurse Joy"/"Officer Jenny" supposed to be "Nurses Joy"/"Officers Jenny" or "Nurse Joys"/"Officer Jennies"?

IMO it should have the same plural and singular. Feels more natural to me.

I.e. "Nurses Joys"?

I think it's Nurse Joys and Officer Jennies, because the entire name is the noun.

No, I mean like that "that one Nurse Joy" and "all those Nurse Joy". Kinda like the word sheep.

Still think it's Nurse Joys. It doesn't quite sound right treating it like the words sheep or deer.

It's just that the -s plural of a person's name doesn't feel natural to me at all.

Considering they're all clones of the same person anyway....
