Not So Human Nature by Refure
Fandoms: Parahumans Series - Wildbow, Pocket Monsters | Pokemon - All Media Types

Summary
It's human nature to look back on one's history and contemplate how things could have changed if only they'd made X choice, or to ask if they would do the same things again despite knowing the consequences.
To get caught in the tangle of the past is to drive oneself mad, but navigating a forest is always easier with a guide.
It doesn't matter if they're "just doing their job". Sometimes, only a stranger can show the way. Thrown into a new world after "death", Taylor Hebert has to rebuild her life from the ground up, and she'll do so as a Pokémon Ranger.

Summary
Taylor triggers with the power to turn into a snake.
Unfortunately, she's not quite sure how to turn back yet, because she triggered like two hours ago and she was asleep when it happened.
On a completely unrelated incident, Amy Dallon found a stray snake in the hospital, and decided to keep it until she could find its owner, because who else could care for a snake better than she could?
If only it would stop being such a pain in the ass!

Summary
Octavia Vale had a problem. For her entire life, pokemon have reacted to her presence with unease at best, and outright hostility at worst. To them, she seemed to exist in the Uncanny Valley, something about her just subtly "off" in an unidentifiable way. She wanted nothing more than to have the opportunity to travel and befriend pokemon like anyone else, but it was never safe to do so. This was not a problem shared by Taylor, her identical twin. Octavia was sure that if she could just figure out what the difference between them was, then she could fix it and finally follow her dreams.
Unfortunately for both of them, she did. The difference was that Octavia wasn't human. She never had been.
Octavia Vale was an Imposter. A Ditto that had transformed into a perfect copy of Taylor as an infant and never changed back. A Ditto who could mimic the human form and had learned human speech to a degree almost unheard of for its species. A Ditto that no shortage of criminal enterprises would pay any price to capture and exploit.
Taylor Vale never wanted to be a trainer, but to protect her inhuman sister, she was willing to try anything. Even if it meant capturing and training Octavia herself.

Definitely to read. Transliterated is great, and this one is by them, and more in my wheelhouse.

Summary
Hisuian Zoroark are spirits that lingered after death due to overwhelming resentment. Being torn from home, left somewhere strange and new, and unceremoniously killed certainly results in a lot of resentment.
How can you live with all of that pain? How can you keep it from ruling you, when all of your old anchors are gone?
SI-OC in the Hoenn region. Focuses primarily on original characters, both human and Pokémon.
Tags will be added as needed with each chapter release.

Summary
Waking up after dying is not something you would expect. Waking up after dying in the Pokemon world even less so. But there's more to this world than super powered creatures and being the best. How and why did I get here? Well secrets can be found off the beaten path, for those willing to look, magic, psychics, demons, otherworldly creatures? No one said it would be easy.
