Other interests I hold are surfing and archery (such awesome sports ;P), drawing/painting, crocheting and writing. I love writing and at the moment, (along side short fan fics) I am working on a book. A real book. Not that I would ever publish it, but hey, I can always dream...

Stop the flaming! Think before doing it, because you may not know the damage of the words you write, may have on a person. You may never know their story and problems they may be facing, think before writing, it is enough. Stop the flaming! If you agree with me, copy and paste this on your profile then add your name to the list! - Contestshipper16, I'll Break Your Heart, YellowDragonMuffin, Stocky-parker-dog

I'm not good at Maths, I'm not the smartest at English, but those are just one form of intelligence. My form is creativity and my expression comes through my writing. Don't judge my ability to be intelligent.

So, some of you may remember, I used to have a friends list here. I have deleted it from my profile. Because I'm having issues trying to keep it updated and all. If you are my friend, you will know who you are, I'm sure, and I love you all to pieces. But keeping a 'friends list' seems a little... Well, not exactly me. Because I make new friends and I have a great time with everyone I talk to. Those who I do talk to, I do hope you know how much I appreciate it. I feel like I shouldn't need a list to tell you all that you're my friends and I care deeply about you. You're amazing and I'm not the only one who knows it.

Things you can expect from me are mostly about Pokémon. Sometimes I like to dabble into other fandoms, but Pokémon tends to be my main.

My favourite Pokémon shippings that will likely be what I delve into more are;

Contestshipping-May and Drew (This quickly became my favourite of them all because they are so cute and there is so much stuff that I can write based off certain characteristics...I hope you like contestshipping...)

Pokeshipping-Misty and Ash (because who doesn't love the whole determined Misty with her never dying crush on the dense Ash kind of thing?)

Ikarishipping-Dawn and Paul (Hey, I like the whole opposites attract thing ok?)

Caffeineshipping-Mina and Jaiden (These are my OCs that take after me and a friend in characteristics. So of course I support and write for my own OCs. Launa came up with the name ;P Thank you)

These are the four that I choose to write for, but I also support (and may include hints for);

Oldrivalshipping-Gary and Leaf (I like this, I really do. I've read fics for this and I fell in love with it)

Rocketshipping-Jessie and James (Because why not?)

Festivalshipping-Solidad and Harley(I like it. I might include hints to this in a couple of my contestshipping fics. I find it kind of sweet...In a weird way...)

Kalosshipping-Serena and Calem (Because after playing through Pokemon Y, I just HAD to support this couple. It's just SO cute!)

I do have my own characters that I made up, but I don't know how much or how many I will put in my stories. So these are my OCs;

Name: Mina (This is me as a Pokemon character. Full name Carmina)

Gender: Female

Appearance: She is short and has green eyes that go darker when she's angry. Her hair is golden blonde and curly at the ends, cut to chin length with a side fringe on the left. Her weight is average for someone her height (meaning she's not fat, but not incredibly skinny either). She has pale skin and rosy cheeks. She generally wears black jeans and a stripy black and white t-shirt. She always wears a black jacket, no matter how hot it is because of light pink scars all over her back and upper arms. Normally she wears high heeled black boots as well to make her that little bit taller and she's become quite skilled at even running in them. Over her shoulders is a red and black bow and a quiver of arrows in case she gets into danger.

Personality: Mina is really outgoing and kinda crazy (especially if you give her coffee). She laughs and talks a lot. She loves to tease, especially Jaiden. She is really cheeky and occasionally causes mischief with her ways. She can be a hot head at times resuting in vicious verbal fights, but mostly she just wants to have fun. She always sets her expectations lower than average and gets over-excited easy. She hates losing and is very competitive; as a trainer and as a person. As a trainer, she is dedicated and determined. She treats her pokemon fairly, without over spoiling them or being too harsh. She is incredibly loyal to both people and pokemon, even if that person (or pokemon) walks or runs out on her. She is also skilled with a bow and arrow.

History: When she was five, her house caught on fire. She barely escaped and was severely burnt across her back and upper arms. They healed into pink scars that Mina is quite self-conscious of, which is why she always wears her jacket. As a result of this, Mina is a little bit afraid of large fires. She has one older brother she looks up to a lot and a younger sister she doesn't get along with well. When little, she grew up with her next door neighbor and best friend Jaiden. They had always planned on travelling together when the time came. As long as she has known Jaiden, people have always paired her with him and she is still really embarrassed by it. Other than that, Mina has lived a normal life.

Pokemon: Ninetails, Umbreon, Milotic, Plusle, and Zorua

Pokemon class: coordinator

Love interest: Jaiden

Name: Jaiden

Gender: Male

Appearance: Jaiden is a head taller than Mina (if you measure when she isn't in heels). He has pale blue eyes and messy dark brown hair with a fringe that almost falls into his eyes. He is pale skinned and is very skinny despite how much he eats. He is usually seen wearing blue jeans and white volleys. He either wears a red and white t-shirt or a black t-shirt. He wears a dark blue hooded jumped over the top. He always has a friendship band on his wrist that Mina made for him, and a lot of people like to use that to tease him about his affection for Mina (to which he blushes and shakes his head).

Personality: Jaiden is a quiet, laidback guy. He listens a lot and offers his occasional wise comment. He can be really silly and his favourite thing to do are to make Mina laugh, and to tease her. Mina and Jaiden may be really close, but Jaiden respects her boundaries and independence and will let her make her own decisions. He is protective though and whenever Mina gets into trouble, he bails her out. He likes to pull harmless pranks on his friends and seems to like really lame jokes that he will tell over and over again for weeks (driving Mina up the wall). As a pokemon trainer, he is fair, but occasionally spoils them as he hates to be mean. He is a peaceful person and often has to come between fights that Mina gets involved in. Like Mina, he is also very loyal, but if someone is not treating him right; unlike Mina, he will cut his connections with that person.

History: Jaiden has a very normal history. He grew up next door to where Mina lived. He knows all about her scars and was there on the night that Mina was burnt. Both his parent are friends with Mina's parents and he was pushed from a very young age to travel with Mina and keep her from trouble. He has two older sisters and an older brother. He gets along with his family well, but gets a little annoyed that they constantly tease him about Mina. They're just friends...Right?

Pokemon: Jolteon, Luxray, Raichu, Minun, Ampharos and Electrike

Pokemon class: coordinator

Love interest: Carmina

And I thought I'd better add this one since I use her more regularly now ;P

Name: Renae (she is my OC for Drew's younger sister)

Gender: Female

Appearance: Renae is slim and tall. She has large green eyes and long green hair. Her skin tone is much the same as Drew's. She has no general style, rather wearing whatever she feels like wearing and may often end up wearing mismatched clothes.

Personality: Renae is rather cheeky. And being Drew's younger sister, often he ends up being who she uses it on, especially his love life and loves to embarrass him in any way possible. Renae and Drew have a close brother-sister relationship and share the same smirk. She has a strange logic and despite her wanting to get May and Drew together all the time, she generally is disgusted by any shows of affection.

Name: Craig

Gender: Male

Appearance: Craig has short red hair and pale blue eyes. He has very pale skin and a few pale freckles.

Personality: Because Craig is more of a filler character, his personality depends on what I need him to do. He is good at pretending and can be quite aggressive at times. He often jumps to the wrong conclusions too quickly.

Future stories planned! (Possibly... I may yet come back to these... I'm not sure yet)

So I'll give you a heads up on the next few chapter stories I am planning so you know what to expect from me. *Note that this list does not include oneshots that I may be putting up.

These are the movie twists I have planned so far...

Pokémon heroes: Latios and Latias (In progress...Finally)- Obviously a pokeshipping twist. Well and I've put in Contestshipping too! I found a way to add May and Drew in ;P Goes with the twists ;P We'll see what else I can twist. Cuz you know, it's all about the twists ;P

The rise of Darkrai, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, Arceus and the Jewel of Life- These will be ikarishipping with possible added contestshipping, again depending on what I need to twist and how I can add them. And I know these movies are apparently a trilogy or something. I haven't decided whether I will do them that way, keep them separate or include them all as one huge chapter story. I don't know. I'll decide this later.

Jirachi: wish maker- This is the last contestshipping focused movie twist. Basically another twist with Drew added into the story. This might include Misty at the very end, I'm not sure. I might decide that when I start it.

I'm not 100% sure of any other stories I may or may not do. I might still do more, I've not been active here much. I don't want to disappoint anyone.

Ok, I decided to do something different. rather than having a top ten, I'll do a list of my three favourite male characters. And then three of my favourite female characters. It's not like anyone really cares about my favs anyway. And remember THESE are all my own opinions so please don't tell me I'm wrong or judge me from it. Like I said, these are just MY opinions. Everyone has them. If yours is the same as mine, then great! :)

Boys;

1-Drew. I have no words to explain why I like him the best. He's just so...Amazing. He has green hair for goodness sake! And I've given his so much personality quirks that makes him so much more real to me (eg. His strawberry craze ;P). He also shows that though he teases May and is really arrogant, he cares for her in a subtle way. Which is so cute. It's so unfair that they didn't put him in ANY of the pokemon movies. They even set one in his hometown and didn't bother to put him in.

2-Paul. I know crazy, but I really like Paul. He's so different to anything we saw previous to this. Just downright cold. I dunno. It's just so much different and I really like it. I just can't explain it. I also like how they didn't bend his character by the end to make him too soft.

3-Calem. Yes. He is from the game and not from the anime, but I just like him. The way he is, I dunno. I just can't explain it. I liked having him around and looked forwards to when I got to meet up with him.

Girls;

1-May. Can't have my favourite pairing without May. Simple. No, I actually like her because her personality is similar to mine. Pretty dense and can easily flare up in anger. But I love how she sorta had her own story. Like she wasn't just Ash's companion, she could've very well done a spin off on the show about her own journeys because she seemed to be more of a main character. That could just be me though.

2-Solidad. She's also amazing. I love her calm attitude and she's so wise and clever. She's great to use as a match maker for May and Drew. I also like how she was able to know Drew so well like that.

3-Misty. She's feisty and the first companion of Ash (other than Pikachu) that we got to see. At first it seemed as though Misty was an annoyance to Ash, but you see throughout that Ash and Misty do grow closer. She has so much development, going from 'only tagging along for my bike' to 'not wanting to leave her good friends'.

So that is my list. It was a pretty close call because I do like a fair amount of the characters a lot.

Well I can't think of anything else I need to say so yeah...Read and enjoy I guess
