Untitled Fanfic: Introduction
A/N: Whilst I love Ikarishipping, I wanted to write a fic with an OC in, where Paul is fairly nice and with the opportunity for karaoke, so think of this story as an AU. I've already had a few negative reviews for Paul being OOC and me not mentioning his exploits on the show, so just to clear this up I haven't watched the animé for years so the battle scenes are based on the games and my only knowledge of Paul is from other fanfics. Think I somehow managed it. I have two OC's in this story: Amy (who you're being introduced to now), and Katie, who comes in a bit later.
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon, or any characters featured in this story except Amy and Katie.
About Amy:
Amy is based on myself. She has auburn hair, brown eyes and a birthmark on her left cheek. She is quite intelligent and is both a Pokemon trainer and coordinator. She is 18 years old, the same as Paul. She's good friends with Dawn, May and Zoey, and knows Drew and Kenny from contests. She meets Paul after battling with him, where she wins and then travels with Paul towards the next town – the reason Paul is nice to her in this story is because as she has beaten him, she's earned his respect as a trainer (like I said, AU, but don't worry, there will be moments where we see his familiar coldheartedness). She's a fairly good coordinator as well, although not perhaps as good as Dawn, May and Drew. She has a bit of a troubled past, which you will discover later on in the story.
If enough people like Amy as a character then I might feature her in a Harry Potter fic that I'm planning on writing, although some aspects would obviously have to be changed and she would replace Hermione (they're quite similar, and having Hermione included as well kind of confuses the story, so I'd have to erase Hermione).
