Summary
‘Dawn’ was the name of a Champion, a young girl who had beaten the odds and come out on top over all the other trainers in the Sinnoh Region, who had been lauded as a battling prodigy on the cusp of a decorated career. It was the name of a starry-eyed child whose life was brimming with opportunity.
Akari was no longer that child.
And yet ‘Champion’ was a title that opened doors which an ordinary trainer would never have the ability to. It was a title that came hand in hand with duty, but one that held no small amount of power – power that could be used to scour the earth for hints of a dragon that most relegated to mere myths and legends.
Dawn is finding her uncle, no matter what name she opts to use. No matter what name he opts to use.

Summary
“Hey, so, where do you tend to vanish to throughout the day?” Urbain finally asked, a week into her on-and-off stays at Hotel Z.
She preferred to sleep at home, but if she wanted to make Harmony seem like her own individual person, Canari had to stay in Room 202 sometimes.
“Explorin’ the city, you know, just adventurin’.” Canari outright lied. “Lumiose is absolutely massive!”
Urbain took her at face value, agreeing readily. “That it is! Want me to help show you the sights?”
Naveen, who Canari was fairly certain still watched her streams – and who had therefore seen her spend the last 5 hours of her life playing Beldum Buildup – remained conspicuously silent.
“...That won’t be necessary. Thanks, though!”
Urbain mistakes a disguised Canari, returning from a visit overseas, for a tourist. Canari goes along with it, and Naveen is long-suffering.

Summary
Zekrom couldn’t hold back a full team of six while protecting both of his young charges.
There were too many variables, too many factors to consider. How could he leap into battle and still ensure the safety of both Hilda and N, when Ghetsis had so openly stated his malintent?
Then a tightly-contained orb of scorching heat blasted past Zekrom and hit the opposing Bisharp head-on, and he faintly recalled that Alder’s footsteps had been accompanied by another’s.
He recognised the attack in a heartbeat.
N’s formula to change the world involved three key variables. Team Plasma, the Pokémon League Champion, and the Dragon of Ideals, Zekrom.
Ingo, dormant within the Dark Stone, had other plans - and so did his brother.

Summary
Just as Kim Dokja laid his eyes on the man, Yoo Joonghyuk stepped out of the shadows of one of the bridge’s supporting towers and his coat's high collar moved out of the way of his face.
…Ivan’s face.
His hair was different, ruffled from combat and wind-swept instead of artfully styled the way Ivan’s had been when Till had seen him last - when Till had stood on that stage all those years ago. His clothes were different, a practical black coat and black combat boots made for constant movement, rather than snow white with showy dress shoes.
But his face was unmistakable.
The protagonist of his favourite novel wears Ivan's face, yet seems to have none of his memories. As such, Kim Dokja's - Till's - attempts to survive the apocalypse are complicated by the ghosts of a world he'd thought he'd left behind.
Yoo Joonghyuk, on the other hand, would really appreciate it if the censor on this new wild card's face could drop for just a second - maybe then he'd be able to figure out where he knows the painfully familiar man from.

Summary
Her regrets follow her at every step, despite having paved the way for the person Cynthia has become - stronger, slightly wiser, and determined to build a life outside of the sins that she's committed. Much of Volo's history now lies where it belongs, in the distant past.
Then comes Dawn, one of this year's new Pokédex holders; the spitting image of a girl who she'd once wanted dead for the crime of being Arceus' chosen. Dawn is twelve years old.

Summary
The union of three of my favourite PL:A character-related tropes:
- Ingo is Zekrom (& Emmet is Reshiram)
- Volo is Cynthia
- Akari is the DPPt protagonist
ft. very long time loopIt is my belief that each story can be read standalone, though reading other stories in the series will definitely strengthen your overall understanding. The planned exception will be the fifth, and likely final, work in this series.
The full timeline, including reference years & where each work in this series falls on the timeline, can be found in the End Notes of to play a role. The works in this series are more or less in chronological/intended reading order, though.

Summary
After a long several seconds of silence, Trucy says, "Apollo?"
"Yeah?"
She bites her lip for a second, then says all in a rush, "We're ten years in the past, you just got hired to work at the same law office as my dad--only he's not my dad yet, he's not even a lawyer yet--and we're pretending to be siblings."
This sits in the space between them for a few seconds. Then Apollo lets out a long sigh and nods. "Yeah," he says. "That pretty much sums it up."
The day after Wrocky's trial, Apollo Justice wakes up stranded ten years in the past with Trucy Wright. Somehow, things only get more complicated from there.
Follows the events of Ace Attorney, Justice for All, and Trials and Tribulations.

Summary
Emmet didn’t think he would ever see his twin again, with 5 years gone by and counting. It had been 4 years since Emmet looked at himself in the mirror, or even passed one, the jolt of wondering if he’d seen his twin too much to bear. 3 years, since the battle subway had removed multi battles and limited its single and double battles, as Emmet stretched himself too thin working. 2 years, since Emmet became the only person to believe his brother was alive. It took a single year for Emmet to become quieter, fueled by his words or phrases failing to produce his twin’s response.
But after those 5 long years of not knowing what had happened to Ingo, from within a part of the unused tunnels of the battle subway, a strange Sneasel-like Pokémon suddenly appears from the dark within Emmet’s personal space in the blink of an eye. But the way it appeared perplexed and almost…confused, by his face of all things, made Emmet dare to feel a glimmer of hope.
