PokéBattles was a major Affectionate Parody site from 1999 to around 2004, with sporadic revivals ever since, consisting of the main fanfiction PokéBattles: Red Version, a collection of one-offs PokéBattles: Blue Version, and a network of related fanfiction sites of the same sort. It parodies Pokémon, with a battle system very similar to that used in Pokémon Red and Blue, and multiple other things, including Star Wars; Luke is a character. Doompuff, the Evil Rabid Jigglypuff of Doom, is The Juggernaut and a recurring antagonist and species across multiple versions.The original site and network were hosted on GeoCities and are no longer up. The original Red and Blue Version, in archived form, can be found here along with the short-lived 2009 revival PokéBattles: 10th Anniversary Edition. Archives of most of the old network sites can be found here, on the revival/tribute site, PokéBattles Foxfire.

Kill the God: Varies from Version to Version, but the Narrator being both a god and killable isn't uncommon.

Unreliable Narrator
 PokéBattles (Fanfic) / int_1869b4b1
comment
Unreliable Narrator: Rare, but known to happen. Typically, this means that whomever or whatever the Narrator is unreliable about is more powerful than the Narrator or resistant to narration.

Coauthored Literature
 PokéBattles (Fanfic) / int_45e6232c
comment
Coauthored Literature: The community was tight-knit enough that some of the versions were collaborations between authors. Arguably, the network's policy of one version per unique combination of authors encouraged this - Got an idea that doesn't fit into your current version but you want to do more than one battle for? You need to find a coauthor or two for it that you're not working with elsewhere.

Attack of the Killer Whatever: Anything and everything can spontaneously "want to fight", including things that in no reasonable sense should be able to, especially trees, computers, and computer programs. Doompuff, the Evil Rabid Jigglypuff of Doom, also qualifies.

Emphasize EVERYTHING: Due to the parody of the way early gen Pokémon had extremely liberal use of block caps and exclamation marks, the Narrator traditionally talks like this.

Narrator Tropes
 PokéBattles (Fanfic) / int_c342275b
comment
Narrator Tropes: Extensively used. Possibly the defining element of the format is the red text known as the Narrator. While the Narrator describes everything that happens in each fanfic, it is never a neutral entity, and typically twists attacks and other events to humorous or otherwise progressing intent.
