There's no reason for me not to come out and say that I'm a proud "Pokephile", and that this thread is awesome. I'll ship any human and Pokemon as long as it's "good", as in well-written or well-thought-out, and I ship myself with Gardevoir more than sometimes. ;]
I love both the cute, platonic stuff as well as the intense lemony stuff. I do not like "forced" though, but I always appreciate an incredible story that features it and makes me angry and emotional, the way an incredible story
should.
It is hard to come across good Human x Pokemon stories that meet my standards, though. They're there, but you have to do a lot of sifting first, at least on mainstream places like FF.Net.
I'm not sure if it's against the rules to make references to actual lemons, even without providing a URL link, so I'll just say I can name several, but my favorite one ever written was this
jaw-dropping 10,000+ word oneshot about an Eevee and a shelter-seeking Trainer in a cave,
from the Eevee's point of view, and every meticulous detail concocted perfectly. It's possible some of you know of it.
There's also a platonic (non-lemon) one about Trainer x Gardevoir, which is fairly old, called "The Kiss" found on FF, and I like that one a lot too, possibly because it's really cute and was also one of the first Human x Poke fics I had written that felt like real love and effort went into it and not like someone was hurriedly typing with just one hand, you know?
So yeah, I adore Human x Poke stories, both cute and hardcore and in-between. And I adore Gardevoir to pieces, to the extent that in my various fantasies I self-insert as the Embrace Pokemon herself about half the time, lying blissfully in her Trainer's arms, every fiber of both her body and her telepathic mind alight with the yieldless torrent of love and emotion pouring into her from her beloved "master"... etc etc.
