Pokémon Sepia

""A war means money. Money in science, because if you use Pokemon they'll just beat each other to death until you catch some more.""

- De-Facto President Weiss to Indigo Sepia

Imagine you took the world of Pokémon--and put it into a very Studio Gainax style direction and narrative. With bits that seem to be a mixture of Chuck Palahniuk 's writing mixed with Cory Doctorow 's own style. The result might be close enough to the Fan Fiction Pokémon Sepia, but only if you also added Doctor Who into the mix.

The pitch line is that there is a meteor headed on a path to destroy all of Earth. In fact, it has done so, a few times already. With the recent death of George Grau, president of Cyren (the Capital region in the nation of Spectrum), Vice-President Jon Weiss steps into his shoes as de-facto President, nominating Stephen Schwarz, CEO of a supposed Freight Company, Rocket Logistics. In order to bring about the kind of funding to stop the Meteor headed straight to Earth, he starts a war, to justify more militant expenses.

Though, what nobody expects is for Team Temporal to appear. Driving the timeline, from The Loop, into one referred to as The Failure, Team Temporal is mostly just a confused group of teens that just happened to be near by when a city wide genocide occured, an enraged Moltres turned on its trainer and several buildings exploding. Which only a minority of them were actually their own fault. Things get even weirder when Daebi/Celetwo shows up. A clone of Celebi, with an insatiable capacity and desire to learn. Add a few Mad Gods, genetic engineering, Time Travel, computer hacking, corporate espionage, Send in The Clones and you are about halfway through. Somewhat Planet Eris mostly because Word of God says Daebi is modelled after the Discordian view of Eris.

 * Action Girl: Krystal Spectrum
 * Aerith and Bob: A mental glitch people suffer after reading Daemon's Notebook too often. With Samual referring reservation in referring to people of importants by their Daemon's Notebook handle next to other people's normal names.
 * Affably Evil: Everywhere.
 * A God Am I: Krystal Spectrum (due to being a little too close to a mass psionic incident caused by herself, Lady Kiss Void and Schwartz), Lady Kiss Void, Pearl and Schwatz.
 * Alternate Universe Fic: Considering that they Destroy The Universe to save the universe from being destroyed this is typically a good assumption.
 * Always Chaotic Evil:
 * And I Must Scream: Usually the result of ticking off Daebi/Celetwo.
 * A result of not wanting to tick off Daebi/Celetwo, as she did invite you to tea. Screaming would be very impolite.
 * Apocalypse How: Starting with Class 3.
 * Apocalypse Wow: Meteor appears to have caused Class 6.
 * Assimilation Plot:
 * Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny: Celetwo/Daebi, Fujitsu, several of the writers at times.
 * Ax Crazy
 * Authority Equals Asskicking: Inverted. By the time the final big bad is running around, The Starscream is already near his equal, as are several members of Team Temporal.
 * Back From the Dead: Arguably Daebi/Celetwo's puppeteering of Perfection. Though Daebi/Celetwo does have access to a Time Abyss so it is hard to say, really.
 * In Miasma Forest
 * Badass: By the bucketload.
 * Badass Bookworm / Badass Labcoat: Krystal.
 * Badass Longcoat: Max, a required part of his gangster attire.

 * Benevolent Boss: Stoenn Spectrum, Leader, Samuel Oak
 * Berserk Button:
 * Sepia gets slavery / pretty much anything which can be seen as a violation of human rights.
 * Celadon gets her sister.
 * Lady Kiss Void gets anyone she risk becoming close to.
 * Roy's Ego has improper handling of Pokemon as one... and cruel behaviour to Krystal Spectrum

 * Break the Cutie: Krystal Spectrum going Shadow.
 * Brian Blessed: Captain Hyperion was described by Word of God as having been made for this actor.
 * Bride and Switch: Roy and Krystal MacKealan... er... Roy and Constance MacKealan. At least a legal name change is not needed here.
 * Broken Bird: Lady Kiss Void due to attempted controls on her person Perfection attempted to put into place on her creation. Lady Kiss Void becomes The Starscream because of these controls.
 * Brother-Sister Incest : Inverted. Used to torment Roy after a case of Bride and Switch with Krystal Spectrum and Roy's Sister.

 * Casual Time Travel: Something that Daebi/Celetwo does.
 * Cerebus Syndrome: Starts off fairly light... then by the end of Hounds it just is frighteningly depressing, scary and dark.
 * Chandler's Law: Usually punctuated with Lady Kiss Void
 * Chekhov's Gun: The Kanto Incident
 * The Chessmaster: Schwartz, Lady Kiss Void, Perfection, Origin, Mewtwo and arguably, Daebi/Celetwo.
 * Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Lady Kiss Void, Deoxys, Daebi/Celetwo
 * Cold-Blooded Torture: Daebi/Celetwo opts for this, after she is killed.
 * Combat Commentator: Ego tends to start narrating out loud, and very abrasively every now and then. With the others near by (who are aware of him) telling him to shut up.
 * Combat Referee: Mr. Stringy Shirt... shows up exactly once. During the Awesome Land Gym Battle.
 * Combat Stilettos: Justified by the fact Krystal Spectrum levitates. Otherwise she'd never do it.

 * The Dead Have Names: Mixed with Bury Your Gays every now and then.
 * Dead Person Impersonation: Part of why Lady Kiss Void appears.
 * Death By Origin Story : Zigzagged...

 * Did We Just Have Tea With Cthulhu?: Pretty much anytime Daebi/Celetwo shows up.
 * Often very literally.
 * Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Maximillion wins a fight with a God of Spacial Dimensions... in the God's own pocket dimension.
 * The appearance of any legendary Pokemon also fits the trope, given that the Great Chain of Being that gets established puts Legendaries above anything not available en masse, including humans.

 * Dude, She's Like, in A Coma: Krystal Spectrum's reaction to Daebi/Celetwo's Cold-Blooded Torture of Perfection
 * The Eighties: Inverted, story takes place in the 1980s, and part of Krystal Spectrum's personal hell, was an overdose of this trope played straight in a fiction in the fiction.
 * Eldritch Abomination: Daebi/Celetwo : A Genetially engineered monstrocity that decided the time line is her own personal play ground
 * Roy's Slowking "Waffles" (AKA "Mr. Popo") fits into this nicely
 * Eldritch Location: The Orchards where Daebi/Celetwo hosts her tea parties with Pachirisu.
 * Elite Mooks: The Kult of Kiss and The Daemon Army both under Lady Kiss Void
 * Empty Shell: Perfection after his Villainous Breakdown (don't worry about him though, he ticked off Daebi/Celetwo so he still is up and walking. He also has killer scone recipe you just have to try.)
 * Enemy Civil War: The Starscream vs. The Elite Four vs. Rocket Logistics vs. Team Temporal vs. Team Temporal vs. Daebi/Celetwo it kind of is the whole of the story at times.
 * Epiphanic Prison: What Krystal is stuck in, while going Shadow
 * Again, Pokémon Sepia's explaination for Pokemon Trozei!
 * ET Gave Us Wi Fi: The Daemon's Notebook was handed to Krystal at the age of five by Daebi/Celetwo with technologies not invented yet, to try to boost the situation.

 * Started popping up, when Lady Kiss Void, but was running a Propraganda Machine.
 * Everybody's Dead, Dave: When Daebi/Celetwo takes Team Temporal After the End.
 * Everything's Better With Bob: A Darkrai is fused with a guy named Bob, who apparently hangs out with Captain Insanity, Fujitsu, Brian Blessed clone Captain Hyperion, and knows Daebi/Celetwo.
 * Everything's Better With Sparkles: A normal result for having a Genki Girl who is The Cutie present in the plot. It eventually ends later on.
 * Evil Knockoff: Zigzagged with Lady Kiss Void for Krystal Spectrum. Mostly via application of Cloning Blues early on, and Lady Kiss Void deciding she does not WANT to be Krystal Spectrum.
 * Evolving Weapon: The Pokemon to a certain extent. Krystal was using her Starmie, Espeon and Roselia as ways to augment her personal self... when she was coating herself in stopal to deal with Perfection's gun shot wound.

 * Reasonable Authority Figure : CEO Stoenn Spectrum of Titan Co.
 * The Hero: Sepia
 * The Lancer: Hari
 * The Smart Guy: Krystal
 * The Big Guy: Max
 * The Chick: Vermil, the heart of the group. Also an audience surrogate
 * Sixth Ranger: Fujitsu, who fits many of these roles but never really finds a set place, which arguably leads to his mental issues, the result of which turns his Sixth Ranger-ness up to 11.
 * Team Pet: Necessary with the Pokemon universe, although less in later chapters.
 * Gadgeteer Genius: Kystal Spectrum.
 * Gainax Ending: What the end may be considered, if you have not been paying attention.
 * Gainaxing: The literal equivalent of it, anyways. With all the Sex Tropes that are salted around this story.
 * Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke: Explanation for the Aspects.
 * Genius Loci: The Miasma Forest
 * Genki Girl: Krystal Spectrum until about of a third way through. The events kind of took the Genki Girl's energy out of her. You can even watch for the signs.

 * God Is Evil: Played straight AND inverted, when it turns out that the six Pokemon described as 'Gods' are pretty evenly split into good and bad.
 * Go Mad From the Revelation How Daebi/Celetwo ended up becoming an Eldritch Abomination.
 * Goggles Do Something Unusual: Krystal Spectrum has some from her Psionic Armour. She just rarely uses them after the outfit was destroyed.

 * Highly-Conspicuous Uniform: What Lady Kiss Void is running around for most of the series wearing.

 * Hollywood Hacking: Zigzagged. Krystal worked on most of the technology--and it was not up to 100% at the start.

 * Commented on when in The Box.
 * Indy Ploy

 * Daebi/Celetwo never attacks anything directly.
 * Lady Kiss Void again, never actually gets physical in her Yandere tendancies
 * Perfection to try to stall the madness. After his madness hits, he merely starts shouting about Trozie!, the Phoebos Battlion while waving the gun around. Followed by Empty Shell status.

 * It Amused Me Ego and Daebi/Celetwo
 * Kick the Dog Deoxys and Lady Kiss Void have a few of these moments.
 * Lady Kiss Void does literally push the Ill Girl out of her bed, when waking up next to her.

 * The Lost Woods: Miasma Forest.
 * Lotus Eater Machine: Krystal Spectrum during the time she goes shadow.
 * Also Pokemon Sepia's explaination for Pokemon Trozei! (Which Perfection gets trapped in--albeit with Daebi puppeting his comatose body around. When the Reset occurs, the puppeteering from a temporal being is arguably one of the few things to not be erased).
 * Machiavelli Was Wrong : Shwartz ends up with his The Dragon nearly going The Starscream, The Baroness actually going The Starscream and posing a good threat. The Eldritch Abomination that The Dragon and The Baroness worked on as the last resort attack not wanting to follow him (The Eldritch Abomination not wanting to bother with The Baroness or The Dragon), and his own admins not want to follow him any more. His solution was to try to remove free will to question his orders.
 * Made of Explodium : Stoenn Spectrum says this, when describing Krystal's Daemon Balls--which were presented as a fix to the Pokeball malfunctions. These balls do nothing to catch monsters they merely explode upon use. Which may lead to Wild Mass Guessing as to the REAL origins of Voltorb.

 * Deoxys

 * Master of Illusion: Lady Kiss Void, Leader, Team Network, Daebi/Celetwo, Krystal Spectrum, Private Dwayne Spectrum and many others.
 * The ending of Pokemon Sepia, and various events in the adventures continuing to follow Sepia put a bit of a Schrodinger's Butterfly onto Lady Kiss Void as far as Master of Illusion
 * Memetic Molester: Waffles The Slowking to a certain extent. Seems to target Constance MacKealan for the most part.
 * Merged Reality: Two. One being the driving purpose of story, and the other in the form of Pewter's construction of the Pokemon Box as a fully functioning world inside a computer.
 * Me's a Crowd: The Daemon Army for Lady Kiss void.
 * The Men in Black: Team Network, and played straight. While not an enemy, they are allied more to information dispersal, than anything else.
 * A Million Is a Statistic: Zigzagged... but quite present.
 * Mind Probe: Lady Kiss Void does this compulsively
 * Hari did this to watch Krystal Spectrum's and Royal MacKealan's Mental Health.
 * Mind Rape: Mostly as Black Comedy Rape to achieve a Dude, Not Funny.

 * No Periods Period: Krystal Spectrum... who is pregnant one and a half times over the plot.
 * Though the pregnancy during the final battle arc, it is revealed she just doesn't talk about it with others (and may possibly be on birth control that limits how this time affects her over all).

 * Plant Person: Daebi/Celetwo is this.

 * Krystal Spectrum, at one point has a cloud of them swarming around her. Rather than using them to power up, she just pelted enemies with the cloud of them, for a Death of a Thousand Cuts type win.
 * Reality Warper: The local Eldritch Abomination Daebi/Celetwo does this every now and again.
 * Red Shirt: Parodied in the Dragons: Universe section. With Krystal being the only Genre Savvy one to be concerned. With Sepia being Dangerously Genre Savvy to suggest they come along.
 * Reference Overdosed: Roy's Ego kind of gets sick of it, part of the way through the second chapter.
 * The Renfield: Jezibelle to Lady Kiss Void
 * Richard Nixon the Used Car Salesman: "When you could make it so that Ronald Reagan ruled Soviet Russia, as the greatest communist leader of all time, as easily as I could... well, you really cannot. So that is why I don't take orders from you." "Who is Ronald Reagan?"
 * Room Full of Crazy: The Boss Fight room for Lady Kiss Void
 * Rousseau Was Right: Pretty much everybody in the story applies to this. It is what allows Lady Kiss Void to go Yandere then The Starscream.
 * Safe, Sane, and Consensual: Any of the more kinking acts between Lady Kiss Void and her pet human tended to demonstrate elements of this.
 * Working as rather zig zagged usage of Bondage Is Bad since the characters doing this stuff for events glimpsed "on camera" were villains.
 * Sanity Slippage: We call that character development
 * Sailor Fuku: Lady Kiss Void's Pet wears one. Likely because Lady Kiss Void has a fetish for it.
 * Save This Person Save the World: Played nearly straight on Vermillion

 * Spot the Imposter: Lady Kiss Void does this fo Krystal Spectrum a few times

 * Time Travel: One of the groups gets referred to as "Team Temporal"... for a well supported set of reasons.
 * Timey-Wimey Ball: The crux of the climactic events of Sepia relies on the fact that time has been Timey-Wimey Ball'd beyond belief.
