AN: Okay, if you've read my profile you'll understand that I regret everything about this. I lost a bet with one of my friends, and now I gotta write a Pokemon fanfiction. That said, I want something to be clear. I do not, never have, and really never will watch Anime, outside of this one exception. Nor will I EVER write FanFics about any other Anime. And there may or not be a repeat of this, I don't know yet. So if I get requests for other Anime, I may lose my shit xD. That said, time for things important to the Fanfic...
Okay, so I've gone through the Pokemon anime as research, so I'll say this. I utterly despise Misty. I think she's a whiny, spoiled bitch who doesn't deserve anything that she got. So no Pokeshipping ever, and my opinions will be reflected in this.
Cynthia the best. She's the pairing, but that will only happen in Sinnoh. I'm starting in Kanto. This said, I'm not utterly opposed to the idea of a harem. But no Misty. Ever.
I'm liable to skip Johto. It really doesn't feel important
Pokemon that Ash will have... Now this is partly up to anyone who reads this, but I already have a list of possibilities, and requirements. There's going to be a lot of powerhouses, and quite a few legendaries. Also Dragons. Cuz Dragons the coolest
His starters are going to be a Gible he gets 4 years before his journey (which will be fully evolved before he starts), and a Ralts (female, same situation with Gible) that he rescues 1-2 years before
There will be Lemons and Sexual situations in this story, but the story isn't going to focused on it.
Ash is going to be competent, cold towards most humans, incredibly kind to all pokemon, and he's going to be Absurdly overpowered. So will his pokemon. He will definitely have aura powers later, and he'll have psychic powers from the beginning. The best at both of them.
Oh and Welcome to, "Ashes in the Sky"
