I have a completely hairbrained idea for a fic with a Latias as the starter pokemon. Bear with me, I am drunk.
>MC is isekai'd. One monent driving along the freeway and the next crashing his car on Route 119 in Hoenn.
>Concussed, injured, and very much confused, wanders off to get help. Finds the weather institute.
>Meanwhile, juvenile latias is making the mistake of challenging the alpha female for control of the herd. Loses badly and is brutalized as dragons are not gentle in their dominance struggles.
>Half conscious latias is cast out of the herd, literally. Slams into MC and knocks both of them off the bridge into the river.
>MC uses half concious latias as a live preserver. Keeps her head above the water so she doesn't drown or dash her head on the rocks.
>Duo ride the river down, MC prevents them from going over the second waterfall, steers them to a bank.
>Weather institute staff saw the initial incident, so rangers find the MC and the Latias fairly quickly.
>Neither MC or the Latias have anywhere to go back to. Something something "two lost souls finding solace in each other or something"
>MC has no valid paperwork or identity, but the crashed car and other interdimensional artifacts are proof of his story
>MC's phone survives, no pokemon spoilers but random videos, including the inspiration for this shit idea, such as fighter pilot techniques and plane stuff (MC was trying to learn how to DCS before isekai)
>MC becomes trainer with no other options
>Latias + Basic Fighter Maneuvers = ?
Thoughts or suggestions? Having such a rare and potentially powerful pokemon can get a lot of plot hooks, and a lot of powerful people are going to be interested in a faller who has managed to get a Latias of all things as his starter pokemon.
