They're technically all the same thing. Ash is popular, girl who he is shipped w/ is new, and the rival shipping is the mean popular girl. And then of course we have May being the supporting Mary Sue(as previously stated. AND IT'S ALWAYS MAY.)

I'd like to think MY high school fic is better than the typical ones. -_- The only High School crime I committed was making May supportive. But I was conscious of the fact I couldn't allow her to become Mary Sueish.

Agreed. This doesn't even just limit itself to Pokémon, oh no, this is everywhere. In pretty much all the high school fanfics I read, the basic story-line is typical and anti-climactic. If it's been used more than once(more than hundreds in this case), don't use it -_-

I'm not into high school fics., but if they're good and different, I'm good with it.

I feel uncomfortable when Dawn is written off as a slut. I don't see that in her at all. I see Dawn as a young girl who just wants to enjoy life to the best of her ability.
