OR: "Supposing the lake trio are masters of their domains, couldn't they do contest performances where...?"

Summary
As the ancestor of all Pokémon, the 500 million+ year old Myuu has seen (and played a part in) most of natural history. Following the events of Myuutsuu no Gyakushuu, The Mythical Pokémon Myuu finds himself contemplating the implications of having a clone and what it means for his own future. So starts a journey down memory lane as he flies towards a friend to whom he can speak with.
This work is written such that it can stand alone or be part of the series it is included in (and vice-versa).
(dormant until I can figure out to make the beginning and middle of the next chapter work)

On the Origin of Swirlix by Shadaki

Summary
Pokémon come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and emerge for the same variety of reasons. Some come to be in order to fill empty niches. Others are mutants adapted to changing climates. Still more are formed as results of supernatural phenomena. In the case of Swirlix, the creation was due to sudden inspiration at a World's Fair. To summarize Mew's thoughts: "What if Food, but alive?"

Summary
Legendary and Mythical Pokémon are, by definition, rarely seen - and what is known about them is confined almost entirely to aforementioned legends and myths. As such most of what they get up to is never learned. Here then, are some more of their stories, typically involving that wise and secretive psychic.
Not all of these will be in the same continuity, but many of the ideas will cross over.

The Journal of the Galactic Civil War
68 ABY"Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station." - Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin
"The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers." - Senator Leia Organa
A more rigorous examination of the events of 0 BBY will show that, while the year is just as pivotal to Galactic history as it usually assumed, the emphasis has often been misplaced. In truth, while the Death Star project did prove to be central to the Galactic Empire’s undoing, the fatal blow came not from DS-01’s destruction at the hands of Luke Skywalker, but from the political implications of the project writ large. It would be going too far to say that the Battle of Yavin was irrelevant, but it would be accurate to say that by the time the Battle Station arrived in the Yavin System, the balance in the Galactic Civil War had already irrevocably shifted, though in ways that would not become apparent for months and years to come.

Summary
Tom Riddle was sorted into Gryffindor. There is nothing to fear.
(If oneshots and multishots aren't your thing, you can probably skip ahead to Hermione Granger and the Silent Country, which, by accident, has a pretty good recap of what you need to know to hit the ground running in that story.)

Summary
"This isn't a concentration camp," Delta says, calm, like he's been rehearsing it. Erik looks at the gun on his hip, the guards behind him in the corridor, the bars between them.
He smiles with a lot of teeth. "I think I'd know that better than you."
AU in which the beach divorce didn't happen and Erik decides to stay and help Charles start his school. But despite their clean break, the government isn't ready to let the mutants disappear into hiding.
