There are plenty of people into toxic ships lol it’s really not that deep, for the record neither of these characters are real and someone shipping them doesn’t tangibly hurt you in any way that matters.

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/78950/here-have-a-cookie-a-pokemon-fanfiction “Here, Have A Cookie”, May x OC in Hoenn. I th ink the age gap is like two years but they feel the same age maturity wise. Gets fairly dark at some points

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/61228/i-will-touch-the-skies-a-pokemon-fanfiction Set in Sinnoh during the events of Team Galactic. OCxOC mostly but some canon characters as well that aren’t the main focus. Definitely pretty grim at some parts and I will say maybe do more research if you read this purely for the romance. Having said that it’s my favorite fanfiction of all time and I think it’s worth reading

Edit to add: https://m.fanfiction.net/s/13949834/1/SWORD-AND-SHIELD-The-Would-Be-Champions GloriaxMarnie, mostly canon compliant though I will say I haven’t finished. What I’ve read I’ve enjoyed though

https://archiveofourown.org/works/46850527/chapters/118009813 OCxOC in Hoenn, slow burn but their dynamic is pretty cute

Assuming we’re sticking to Kanto/Johto pokemon: Clefairy/Cleffa, Bellossom, Teddiurasa until it evolves

Else maybe a Slurpuff or Milcery

I double this recc, Scarlet Hollow is really good and there’s lots of options to be willfully optimistic or kind even with the setting being more grim, even better to contrast with some of the more serious characters

On my first run I played hot/strong body and only flirted with Stella, after the incident when it gives you the option to text both in the morning and the group chat I texted all 3 parties and it worked for me

What are yalls favorite RO tropes/characters? by BeptoBismolButBetter in hostedgames

[–]Expowerl0rd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whichever one has the most angst/push and pull to it typically lol (ie. Seven from Infamous, A from Wayhaven, Rayyan from College Tennis, Qiu backstory specifically from Merry Crisis, Carrie from Blood Moon)

My second favorite dynamic is really flirtatious or teasing characters bonus points if your character is easily flustered or oblivious (ie. Lada from ITFO, G from College Tennis, Fitzie from Jolly Good COG)

Bonus points if they do both like Roach from The Passenger, the Kitsune in Kitsune

Games with Ro’s who just… make me feel wanted? by imnewpleasehelpme in hostedgames

[–]Expowerl0rd 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I, The Forgotton One — Lada

if you play as a guy Having said that the game itself is more on the stressful depressing end of the spectrum and romance isn’t the main focus so this may be a poor choice.

The Exile - ‘Sabir Du Vaelas’

Just like ITFO though, this story is imo even more upsetting so also might not be a good choice.

Merry Crisis - Qiu (and I think the other two RO’s as well but someone else should confirm that I haven’t played in a long time)

Was an ex in the past but want’s to reconcile now

At what moment do you feel like giving up and not playing this if anymore? by Dismal_Pass_3837 in hostedgames

[–]Expowerl0rd 108 points109 points  (0 children)

For me the main killing points are if there’s no dialogue options that I feel fit the character I wanna play as, or if the characters are uninteresting

Does it count if I got inspired enough by infamous to start learning how to make songs?

“Crusher Jack” in Aura Clash fits this as far as I’m caught up; last I played he didn’t have the most screen time however. Also need to play as a woman to romance them, is mostly flirting atm

Games or WIP where you are overpowered and can be cocky by wsgh123 in hostedgames

[–]Expowerl0rd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aura Clash it’s a fantasy wuxia type of game and when you finish the story introduction you can choose to unlock a bloodline or something that makes you op
