This is adorable! I actually found it while poking around for Gen-fic, but the idol aspect still drew me in, since exploration of different aspects of the Poke-verse beyond the League was just what I'd been looking for. And then the romance pulled me in, too ^_^ It's very sweet, and a lovely exploration of the characters.

(And ah, now I'm in the mood for finally starting Pearl or Platinum, so I'm kicking my emulators which won't work properly and let me play the Japanese roms I have ><)

I don't really have much of anything constructive to say, besides 'aww' and 'I'm looking forward to more of this AU!'
