Self-admittedly, the author does not take the story too seriously, and advises all readers to adhere to an ideal similar to BellisariosMaxim.

Heavily influenced by Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann, the story is somewhere between parody, plagiarism, and a bundle of references. Self-admittedly, the author does not take the story too seriously, and advises all readers to adhere to an ideal similar to BellisariosMaxim.

* MagneticPlotDevice: Aura is this, at least according to WordOfGod. The more of it you have, the more weirdness you encounter. [[spoiler: Ash]] has a lot of it, as per the movies, and [[spoiler: Lucas]] has it, which wasn't discovered until Hilbert is half-way across the region, because most aura seems small compared to him.



* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Discussed on multiple occasions. For the most part, Psychic-types are only a step below humans, as they are as or more intelligent than most humans but are still definitely Pokemon. The same goes for most others, excluding the majority of Water and Bug-types, as fish and bugs are generally accepted to not have sapience. It's implied that fish are the only legal source of meat in-universe. Hilbert considers everything else to be around the same level of existence, and tries not to place himself above his partners.

* BattleAura: While not visible in most cases, Hilbert explicitly has, and learned how to use this, after studying under a council of Lucario for a month. He has the ability to see this in others when he focuses. All living things have this as well, to a lesser extent. This justifies why nobody dies from the slapstick, as it acts as a RequiredSecondaryPower of endurance.

Added DiffLines:

''A Mid-Sinnoh Night's Dream'' is a {{VideoGame/Pokemon}} fanfic that started with one simple question. "What if a Golurk punched Giratina in the face?"

Thus began an AU fic that started with the male protagonist from {{VideoGame/Pokemon Black And White}}, Hilbert, moving back to his home region of Sinnoh ({{VideoGame/Pokemon Diamond Pearl and Platinum}}) before the events of either set of games take place. With him, he brings an odd partner and an odder perspective.

It can be found [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13848185/1/A-Mid-Sinnoh-Night-s-Dream here]] and [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/30269931/chapters/74600904 here]].

According to WordOfGod , the AU will contain other stories set after the events of Hilbert's journey within the same universe, though they have posted nothing as of yet.

----
!! This fic provides examples of:
* FreudianTrio: Downplayed and Lampshaded. The protagonist, Hilbert (Ego), balances out his hot-blooded childhood friend, Barry (Id), and Barry's stoic childhood friend, Lucas (Superego). Hilbert is somewhere in-between both of them, possessing both common sense as well as a healthy amount of hot blood, though Barry has some battle sense and Lucas has a growing streak of defiance. Cheryl remarks in Chapter 17 that the three of them balanced each other out, until Hilbert's enthusiasm became infectious and Dawn had to step in as the responsible one.
* HotBlooded: Multiple trainers in the fic practically run on [[{{Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann}} spiral power]], which shares many aspects with the main power source Hilbert draws strength from, BattleAura.
