Summary
Sue, a lowly comp-sci student with no knowledge of Pokémon, must persevere in their world after waking up as a Gardevoir. With the locals and their language completely alien to her, even the refuge she receives feels uncertain.
Local deities invading her dreams and using her as a pawn don’t help, either.
As Sue uncovers this world’s scarred history, her god-mending task becomes increasingly clear, as does its difficulty. Despite that, and her limited grasp of her own powers, she keeps trying, for her goal remains the same.
To survive and make it home, no matter what.
Xenofiction Mystery / Slice of Life, told from the perspective of someone with no Pokémon knowledge at all. Major themes include self-discovery, xenophobia, overcoming guilt, and forging one's own fate against the powers that be.

Summary
Humans meant only death.
But why?
Frustrated at her people's insistence on describing Humans as evil, a young Gardevoir decides to take the matter into her own hands and find out the truth for herself. Her journey is neither grand nor well thought-out, and it's not long before she finally stumbles upon a Human, curious and excited to learn.
The Human in question being six years old doesn't help much when it comes to learning, but she isn't about to let that stop her.

Summary
Gracidea Asylum.
Nominally, a medical facility dedicated to providing long-term care for vulnerable Psychic-type Pokémon.
In reality... nobody knows.
Abusive institution controlled by a monster? Paramilitary force helmed by an anti-League extremist? Mind control facility with an unhinged loon in charge? The truth about its secretive operations and unnerving “patients” has been hidden for years behind the facility's impassable hedge, near total absence of public communication, and an enigmatic figurehead.
Hidden, until now. Little does the facility know that finally accepting an interview offer from a local newspaper will be its undoing—especially since the interviewer doesn't come unarmed. With a notepad in his hands and a hidden camera on his shirt, David is determined to uncover the Asylum's disturbing secrets, and, if need be, bring it all down.

Summary
There is a world out there, where friendship is the greatest power of all.
Where countless trainers have ascended the gauntlet of the Gym Challenge through sheer spunk. Where their companions are just as driven towards battle as the humans they accompany. Where a humanity is but a part of their world, just as unremarkable in strength as it is vast in significance. Where the special bond between man and mon is what elevates the latter from beast to god.
This is not that world.
This world is one of strife, of humanity simultaneously in control over and in terror of their fellow beings. One where humanity merely sees itself as sacred, with a divinely-ordained destiny to rule from horizon to horizon. One where Pokéballs are the chains that bind and not the bonds that link. One where the power balance is as precarious between nations and the League as it is between humanity and Pokémon.
One where, despite it all, hope still burns bright.

Summary
Red has fought gangsters, gym leaders, and even a legendary or two, but he's never met a trainer with two heads.
Rumors said he was a cheat and a creep, and he certainly looked the part.
Whatever he was, Red was going to beat him... but not before discovering the truth.Series

Summary
Anne was just an ordinary girl amongst many others, living a far from enviable life. There was nothing remarkable about her, nothing worth more than a passing glimpse and moving forward without a second thought. Pitiful, for sure, but in a world like this, her existence was an imperceptible speck by those with the power to help.
And all it took was a split-second decision during a particular night to change Anne's predestined path in exchange for... something better perhaps? Unlikely, but Only time will tell...

Summary
A mysterious human and Umbreon show up at the village and start asking questions.
An official crossover between From the Vast by Redspah and my own fic, What Measure is a Non-Human?, of dubious canonicity to the former. Reading the latter is not necessary to understand this one.
