April was an ordinary woman from the Sinnoh region, until she was unceremoniously transformed into a Beautifly and thrust into a world inhabited by colourful creatures who gawk at Pokémon. There, she meets a lost and lonely Budew, and a scatterbrained but hard-working pegasus named Sassaflash. Unable to fly or talk, and barely able to walk or see, how will April survive in this new world? And how did the Pokémon get here in the first place?

This is not a Displaced fanfic. The protagonist wasn’t brought to Equestria by an object she bought at a convention, for one.
