Crossovers That Should Not Be 26 -- More bad ideas for a new era

[Bob Schroeck]

When the SLDF followed Kerensky beyond the Inner Sphere, they ended up finding worlds inhabited by strange and dangerous creatures. Eventually they formed clans named for these creatures and took them as symbols, role models, guards . . . and friends.

Battletech / Pokemon.

But can you pokeball a battlemech, that's the real question if you're taking the idea seeriously. And if battlemechs can even compete with a large or powerful fire-type, meaning any preteen with a bit of luck wandering around the countryside throws their whole eugenics class system out the airlock. And too, there were already a few very large Pokemon, even with Steel typing like Magnezone, Steelix, Bronzor, Metagross, or the Easter Island head one - what pokemon have developed to compete with battlemechs strength-to-strength rather than via type advantage?

For a more whimsical take, hot Omnimech on Wailord action when?

Kinda says something about my tastes when I was so badly disappointed when I realized this was in this thread, and not the new fanfic one. :-) Though part of me wonders how hard it would be to adapt the tabletop game to this idea...and another part is thinking of something like Gammarauders or Zoids, where the Mechs *are* giant Pokemon, with cockpits and other devices grafted to them...
(Yay Clan Vulpix, of course. :-) )

Here's a potential crackfic idea that came to me in an admittedly weird dream that I had recently:

A Worm/Pretty Cure crossover in which human versions of the Endbringers become Pretty Cures.

Now, I just need to figure out who should comprise the villain group and what their motivations are...

(And imagine the sheer chaos that would inevitably ensue... )

I've been trying to come up with one for When Harry Met Sally, but the only Sallys I can think of aside from the actual movie by that title are Sally Forth (comics) and Jack Skellington's girlfriend from The Nightmare Before Christmas, neither of which suggest any crossover plotlines for Harry Potter besides the tired "kid Harry gets away from Durzkaban," or post-canon Harry replacing the nearly-nonentity husband in the comic strip and not really changing anything due to its nature.
