So, I decided to do a Pokemon Gender Bender AU.
Not all characters will be gender swapped (like Professor Oak, or the Rocket Trio), but I want to swap all the other main characters.
For Example:
Ashley - Ashley is an only child that lived with her mother, Delia Ketchum (Ashley's father left home to go on a journey right after she was born, and never returned since. As he never registered his name in the Pokémon Trainer's list, his whereabouts are unknown.), until she left for her Pokémon journey at the age of ten. Her main goal in life, is to be the world's greatest Pokémon Master. She is very similar to her male counterparty: stubborn, incredibly brave and friendly. She also has a carefree and adventurous personality and act very tomboyish, and Pikachu is still her best buddy. In the beginning, Ashley had a bit of an inferiority complex, as well as some form of personal pride, most likely stemming from his rivalry with Garyn Oak. As a result, she had some bad habits, such as shamelessly boasting of his own skill if she were ever on a winning streak.
Brookes(female!Brock) is like her cool big sis and menthor figure. She and Mitch(male!misty) constantly bicker with each other…and they also have a crush on each other. It's the only way Ashley knows to express her feelings, while Mitch is a secretly-kind jerk, who is not able to admit his feelings. This is obvious to everyone except them. Confront them with the obvious, and they'll deny it. When one gets clued in, they will do every thing in their power to play it off.
So I did Ashley here, Brookes and….(male!Misty?)
I've beem calling him "Maverick" or "Mitch" but I'm don't like it…
It's…pretty difficult to find a name for male Misty that is similar to the original and is also related to water. Does anyone has a suggestion?
