Pokemon: I Grind for Resources Through Music to Become a Trainer

(Starting in Unova, mildly realistic, with hip-hop elements and a little R&B music. Readers who dislike those should steer clear.)

When he opened his eyes, he found himself reborn in the Unova Region of the Pokemon world as a guy named Drake.

Drake wasn't happy for more than two seconds.

He soon discovered that this guy was a street punk with absolutely nothing to his name.

He was flat broke, and his only partner Pokemon, Gastly, was a mutant that couldn't learn a single move.

“Damn, I'd be better off not transmigrating with a start like this. What the hell kind of Trainer am I supposed to be?”

After learning about his situation, he decided to follow the original owner's example, mess around with hip-hop, and coast through life. But...

Years later, when his fans tied him up, brought along the Poke Balls of his six best bros, and carried him into the Unova Champion Tournament, he regretted the decision he'd made all those years ago.

I should never have released those songs!
