Frequently Asked Questions: 

Q - What's special about this fanfiction?
A - The books have an architectured story, from mysteries to time travel. From being awfully childish to brutally mature. Also, the protagonist ages.

Q - Who are the Main Protagonists and the rivals? 
A - Red, a character from the Pokemon Video Games is the main protagonist along with his best friend Leaf. Whereas the character Blue (also known as Gary in the anime) is more of a frenemy than a rival. The main rivals would be Team Rocket Grunts - Cassidy and Butch as well as their Boss, Giovanni.

Q - Is this story based on Pokemon Red or FireRed?
A - The story has a few iconic moments from the games/manga but those events do not play a big part in the main story arc.

Q - Is Ash Ketchum in it?
A - The story takes place in its own universe. I try to bring some events from the games, the manga, and the anime. You get to see a different version of Ash Ketchum (close to how he has been depicted in the anime) in 2 chapters of this book.

Q - Is Team Rocket the same as in the anime?
A - While Cassidy and Butch are characters from the anime, they have a different overall character arc than in the anime. Team Rocket is darker than in any previous versions and has a purpose and a plan other than stealing. Giovanni's plan plays out slowly in the course of three books.

Q - It has time travel?
A - It does, time travel is hinted at in the first book with the actual "time traveling" in the second book.

Q - "I hope the protagonist has a father, hahaha"
A - Yes, he does. The character mostly appears in flashbacks but is an important character.

Pokémon Red (Book 2) by Gaidaros
80 parts Complete
This is the second installment in the 'Pokémon Red' series. Red, a 10-year-old Pokémon Trainer, after rejecting the oppurtunity to become the Viridian City Gym Leader must continue his quest of becoming a Pokémon Master to the Johto Region. Here he will be met with similar challenges, mainly - Team Rocket. Frequently Asked Questions: Q - This book has a crossover? A - The book crosses over with @Bossun24 's Pokemon Leaf Chronicles for 6 chapters. The crossover had been planned 1 year prior to its publishing. Q - Why is Leaf replaced by Lyra? A - Leaf is not replaced by Lyra, both characters are different in their own ways. I wanted to get Leaf out of the picture for a different kind of character growth. Lyra is Red's cousin sister, with Red being an experienced trainer, he acts like a mentor to her. Q - So time travel happens in this one? A - It does, and its fun how it plays out. Q - Who is this Masked Man? There was a masked man in the manga too. A - While the idea was original, a mystery man who structures every Team Rocket plan and assists Giovanni. I was shocked to see that the manga had someone named "Masked Man" as well. Q - Who is this Masked Man? And why is he important? A - A mystery man controlling every aspect of a criminal organisation and has been the true mastermind of Giovanni's every plan? Sounds pretty important to me. As for his identity, I was very unsure if I was ever going to reveal it as it was not very important at first until the second book was coming to an end.
The Ketchum Family by Razor_Keyboard
76 parts Ongoing Mature
This is the story of what happens after Ash wins the Masters Tournament. All our heroes attend a celebration in honor of the new Monarch. What will happen when Ash and Serena finally reunite? Where will their paths lead next? How will their relationship change as they get older? Info: I have written this story to be very much like the anime. I try very hard to stay true to the characters and portray how I believe they would change as they grow older and gain life experience. All of my chapters are long and full of description, character development and worldbuilding. If you like fun, well thought-out stories with humor, drama, and action, you should like this work. Rating: PG-13 with moments of strong sexuality. There's no profanity or graphic sex. Any sex scenes are poetically written. Some of the romantic scenes are quite sensual, so be aware. As I said, I try to stay true to the anime and that means keeping 'dark' story elements to a relative minimum. There's plenty of intense Pokemon Action and some scary moments, but nothing that veers into gratuitous violence. As far as 'intimate' stuff goes, there are a few sex scenes but they are not gratuitous. I keep things poetic and beautiful, not smutty. That being said, at times, things will get very steamy and intense. As a general rule, if there's something edgy in a chapter I will put a small warning at the beginning. I'm not here to shock anyone. Additionally, as far as ages go, Ash and Serena's age (and any other characters of comparable age) should be considered to be 18 at the start of this story. A lot of time has passed since Ash started out on his journey and although, for now, he is a child at heart, he is actually an adult. Now that their journeys are ending and relationships are beginning, they will finally start experiencing more of what life has to offer. Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon. This is a work in progress.

After failing in the Unova League, Ash returns home to get advice before resuming his journey to become a Pokemon master. Now, what happens when someone renters Ash's life after many years. Take a trip as we join our protagonists on a journey with several tough decisions and choices as they take their first steps on the path to their future. But what happens when the very meaning of the word Pokemon Master changes? What happens when a different someone else enters, who changes everything... for everyone? Suddenly the rules don't apply. The Pokemon League is trivial. The centres of power, drastically shift ... "When it comes to Pokemon masters. Only the student, has hope of defeating the master." "Over the years of evolution, the Charizard species lost its Dragon typing due to climate changes, lack of need and other factors etc." "A Pokemon evolves through battle. That is the nature of its evolution." "Anyone who dares to stand in my way. I shall pull them apart piece by piece. They shall eventually be the architects of their own destruction." Who says these dialogues? In what context and why? To get the answers to all the questions buzzing in your head, read the story. Interesting theories about Pokemon Evolution, Types etc. along with other things like battle tactics and strategies. Last but not least, it is an Amourshipping saga. Discover for yourselves, a different take on Amourshipping where Serena is already Kalos Queen and Ash is hiding a secret. So definitely more mature characters than the anime which is bound to have interesting implications for the lives of the star couple. So get ready for a dramatic, adrenaline-filled, mysterious Tryst with Destiny. Enjoy reading. And as always Viva Amourshipping. PS: This book ends with the Amour engagement. The story is then continued in book 2. An added bonus for Amourshippers.
Take an Extra Step, GOH the Extra Mile by YukiKazeko
27 parts Complete
This book is part of a series. If you have not read the other books, then you won't understand what's going on here at ALL. Please go read 'Not Everyone is a Steal-Type' then 'Take an Extra Step, GOH the Extra Mile (The Prologue)' Before continuing. Both can be found on this account. (There's also a reading list dedicated to this series.) __________ Ash failed to save the world alongside Goh and even lost his existence in the process... OR SO HE THOUGHT! Thanks to knowledge from a girl who calls herself Yuki Kazeko, he can prepare for the final encounter with the Evil Professor Ceries in the future. (Alongside her, of course! They're both fighting for their own respective worlds.) You would think this would be an easy task for one who came from the world that CREATED Pokemon and loves them with all her heart, right? Sorry to say, but a change in reality isn't as easy as 1, 2, 3. Yuki is afraid of what Pokémon are capable of. From being able to cause fires just by breathing or cause someone to become poisoned just by being touched... that isn't something she's used to. That, alongside her own difficult life challenges she faced just adds on to her fears. With one of the most important pieces to saving the world not being anywhere close to emotionally functioning in the amazing world of Pokémon, a Personal Trial and a Special Grand Trial has been created to help her overcome those fears once and for all! Alongside the world's Chosen One: Ash Ketchum, and the many People and Pokémon who remember the events before the world was cut from the main timeline, Yuki takes on the challenge! It's time to take a step forward into a world filled with many similarities and differences: The World of Pokémon! ___ Book Cover Updated: 3/4/2023 (Mostly to express that it's no longer a betrayal series + cleaner/simpler design)
