Licorice cookie is my favorite character so deal with this semi fluff semi angst x reader fic (also idk if it is considered slowburn though it definitely isn't too fast) The art is mine! (I have no idea why the back looks like glitter but I thought it was cool) Have a nice read!!

Y/N had known hop ever since she moved to the galar region from the alolan region. Hop always felt overshadowed by his brother being the champion. the two best friends grew closer and closer, now at the age of 13. they have not started their pokemon journey just yet though..
