Hello writers of PC. This is an idea I've been developing for quite a while. Even though I'm working on a fic right now, I'm still tossing the idea around in my mind, and I might write it after my current fic is finished. Please give me some feedback on what I have so far, if you can. I might write this and I might not, depending on what I can do with the plot.
_____
Rena Bradford, a teenager in Sinnoh, wants to fulfilli her goal of becoming a Pokemon Trainer. Rena has wanted this for a long time, and finally decides that this is what she will do with her life, since she really has no other ambitions. She has always been the silly sort of person who doesn't take things seriously, but she is slowly getting a wake-up call. She is finally beginning to realize that to be successful in life, you have to be serious about what you want. She is hoping that her 'journey' will teach her a thing or two along the way.
When the story starts, Rena is about to depart for Oreburgh to battle Roark. Before she leaves Sandgem, her mother gives her a journal to record her travels in. She also gives her a camera to take pictures of all the cities she would be in, and a cell phone to stay in touch. She gets bored quickly and begins to draw faces of people who act strange or funny around her in her journal.
She defeats Roark and wins a Gym Badge when she gets to Oreburgh, but for some reason she isn't feeling as accomplished as she might have liked. She records her battle in her journal, and leaves the Gym. The same night after she defeats Roark, she tunes into the news to watch Sadie's contest in Hearthome. When the camera pans across the audience, Rena catches a glimpse of a man she drew in her journal. He was wearing an entirely different outfit, his beard was shaved, and his hair was a different color. (His basic features were recognizable, though) This strikes Rena as odd, but she ignores it and watches the contest. The following morning Rena tunes in for the follow-up news story of it, but instead finds a breaking report that Sadie's opponent was dead, having been shot. She had been found lying on the floor of her hotel room, with no other evidence except a cold plate of food on the table. Rena is terrified by this news, but is determined to learn more.
The story is about how Rena finds that the goal she is pursuing isn't what she really wants. She gets deterred from challenging Gyms to solve the mystery of the girl's mysterious death, and soon finds that the case would affect her life more than she expected. It's a mystery trainer fic, basically.
