Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Infrared

So... Why Arven? | Author's Note

Song: "Infra-Red" - Three Days Grace

The first story I wrote in 4th grade was a Pokémon fanfiction called Mystery of Time and Space, which I cherish to this day.

Long ago, when I started to write original stories, I promised myself I would one day return to that first story and spice it up to be one of my best ones. Except, I never found inspiration for this re-write until I played Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and learned the heartbreaking story behind my new favorite Pokémon character: Arven (for a personal reason that's hinted at but not explained explicitly). However, those who have been following my stories since The Green Guardian will know exactly what I'm talking about.

I love Arven so much, and I thought the ending of Scarlet and Violet was so well done that I just had to expand on it! Not to mention that Area Zero is one of the best locations in the whole game (thanks to its incredible music and dark backstory)!

I have never been so excited to start a new story before, but that's because of that very first story I wrote. Infrared is nostalgic to me, and I can't wait to see what I do with it—as I combine the fantasy genre with science fiction in a new kind of time travel story. I hope you guys will stick with me to the very end and understand why a fanfic like this is so important to me. It's not just because I'm a lifelong Pokémon fan; it's something else... something I will never forget in the years to come.
