Can we talk a little about Harem/Polyamory?
I want to write a fanfic where my OC travels through all the regions and wants to become a great champion (very similar to Ash) and at the same time comes from a family that has a unique and natural ability with Aura. I've already commented on this story before, "Pokémon Fujiwara Origins," you can look it up for more details.
But anyway... I'm here because I'm thinking about the possibility of my OC having more than one girlfriend, why? There are so many female Pokémon characters that I adore, and I'm unsure about this, but of course, I'll make a few things very clear:
First: He will only have a maximum of two girlfriends, and indirectly he might have a third, but maybe I'll only add two or three more, nothing more.
Second: Romance in general will not be the focus of the story. The most frequent romance is more to develop the characters' relationship, but the focus will be more on adventure and development. In fact, in Galar, my OC won't be traveling with any of his girlfriends because the focus will be on the rivalry with his sister.
Third: If my OC does have more than two girlfriends, it will all be indirectly. For example, he might have chemistry with another girl, but initially nothing serious... And in the future, when he becomes champion, it's shown that the girl also married him along with the others, but when it comes to the present... He will only remain with two.
And finally... I have an idea to maybe have my OC have children and those children have their own stories, like passing them on... Regarding the events of Pokémon Legends Z-A and Wind or Waves
But overall, what do you think? Do you think it will be okay for my OC to have an indirect harem? And if not... How many girls do you think is acceptable?
