Summary
Formerly "Don't Hide Yourself From Me".
Dawn is in a rough state. She can't win the Grand Festival no matter what she tries, all her friends are achieving great things and she isn't, she just can't shake this feeling that she's a has-been coordinator who is condemmed to be remembered by history as one of Ash Ketchum's traveling companions. She hates herself. And she thinks she's doomed to pretend to be this cheery, nonchalant girl who just goes with the flow and exist.Of course, her destiny is much bigger then Ash's, or anyone else. But is she up to the task? Can she lift up the world in its time of need?
Some minor Ikarishipping vs Appealshipping, but romance isn't the focus.

Summary
This is set in between Fairy Tail and 100YQ and attempts to explain why Natsu has accepted Zeref as his brother by the time of the latter series. He and Lucy have coffee and a discussion. It's almost entirely just those two.
Only the very ending "post-credit scene" has spoilers for 100YQ.
Fairly lighthearted.

Summary
This AU series starts with an older Ash and Iris, both nineteen years old, falling in love at the Masters' Tournament, and will then become post-canon and follow their lives afterward as Champions of Alola and Unova, showing both the good and the bad as Iris further settles into her position and Ash develops the Alola League as both become adults. Their friends will get some attention, too!
Is a bit more grounded and serious than the anime and games, and explores several real-world problems, but still has all the elements that make you love Pokémon!- Words:
