    Hi! Does anyone have some good Pokémon Fanfic reccomendations? I've been wanting to read some new ones but haven't found anything good yet so far.

    I'll post some of my own recommendations here too to make it fair.

    https://m.fanfiction.net/s/7262793/1/Ashes-of-the-Past

    This one is in Fanfiction.net. The world ended sometime during Ash's trip to the Delocore Islands and Arceus pulls him out so he can prepare for that event. Ash requests to be brought back to the day he met Pikachu and starts his journey all over again, with the ability to remind his friends and Pokémon of the last timeline and some Aura abilities under his control.

    This one has to be one of the longest fanfictions Ive ever read but its all worth it. The story is funnt but capable of being serious, the battles (especially the later ones) are detailed and thrilling and the cast of characters (both old and new) are all charming. Its currently at the end of the Sinnoh Arc and hopefully the author will come back soon to continue the journey.

    This one is in AO3. The legendary Pokémon of the world have their own group chat where they can connect with one another. A few months before his journey begins Ash Ketchum somehow gains access to this chat and makes friends with the legendaries of Kanto. The night ebfore his journey, his presense in the group chat is made known and all the Legendaries are roped into watching Ash be the very best like no one ever was.

    This story is kinda cracky but thats what makes it fun. Basically the Legendaries are watching Ash go thpughhis Kanto journey all while giving advice and causing disruptions. If you like chat fics I guarantee this will become one of your favorites. The dynamics of the characters are funny without simply disolving into memes and yelling. It mixes both the OG anime as well as some elements of the I Choose You movie. Its currently in the Indigo League arc at its been a fun ride.

    Sure I have a recommendation. It's a PMD fan-fic (not sure if you're into that, but if you are, than this one will keep you reading for a while).

    The tittle of the fic is "Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Broken Ideals". It was honestly one of my absolute favorites when I was younger. It took me a long time to finish, because the fic is exactly 930,703 words long, with 101 chapters. Heads up though, it might be a bite tame at first, but story gets dark, like... very dark (suicide and shit). If you're into PMD fics, this one is definitely one of my top recommendations.

    Here's a written note by the author about the Fic: "As the story's description suggests, it can get really, really dark when it wants to be. I did my best to make tasteful, but if you can't handle things like suicide, abysmal despair, and demonic creatures, I'm not too sure you'd like my story. Just a fair warning since I've had people over the years wishing I had warned them about the contents."

    I feel weird doing this, but I'm just going to self-promote my own Pokémon stories. A lot of people really seem to like them.
    There's Getting to Know You on both fanfiction.net and ao3. It's a series of one-shots about Kukui's relationship with Ash in the Alola series. If you were one of those people that didn't appreciate the Sun/Moon episodes, this may not be your cup of tea, but if you like the slice of life stuff you might like it.

    Then there's the series A Different Way, again, on both fanfiction.net and ao3. It started as a story exploring how Ash's journey would have gone if he'd travelled with different gym leaders besides Brock and Misty. It uses elements from the show, the games, and the Pokémon Adventures manga.

    I've also posted these stories here on lakevalor, if you wanted to read them here. I also have a few one-shots, but it seemed like you were aiming more for longer stories.

    I got 3 big ones.

    https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11173445/1/Blazing-Courage

    A story of a riolu who has to abandon his town due to it being attacked. This is a story that has aged certainly well and I will give to anyone who wants to start reading Pokémon fanfics and need a good place to start

    https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12520340/1/Renewed-Life

    This story while excellently written is absolutely brutal and not for the faint of heart. It starts with the main characters past and how he became alone and quickly takes it up a notch. It will not let up and it's influences are certainly admirable and I have written things in similar structure to this either solo or as a collaborative effort. Do give this a read but you have been warned.

    https://www.fanfiction.net/s/40488/1/Number-Six

    This is the single oldest FFN story I have read it is over 21 years old but it has very much aged like fine wine. It is a 1 shot of what charizard truly feels about Ash in the anime and why he did everything he did. Despite it's age it is certainly worth the read.


    These are just a few I lurk heavily around the fandom on both FFN and Ao3.
