Foreword
This story is mostly just for my own fun, so the writing style will be a little relaxed and the production values will be slightly lower than my usual. I'm not going to aim for consistent chapter lengths, or even necessarily large chapters. It'll be written in first person, tinted with my own mannerisms, as this story's protagonist is pretty much a carbon copy self-insert of my personality (no apologies).
Overview
The Girl Power That's Inside is a story that focuses on a closet crossdresser named Nick and his journey towards self-discovery. After his sister discovers his secret, she encourages him, pushing his hobby further and further as he begins to understand more about himself. Eventually, she encourages him to join her for a women's only Pokémon Coordination event, saying that his hobby of dressing up and putting on makeup has advanced so much, he can actually pass and participate without raising too many eyebrows. After much disagreement and much cajoling he figures he'll give it a go, and it's a decision that opens his eyes about who he really is.Further along, and donning a new name, new clothes, a new personality and a renewed outlook on life, Nicole confidently intends to experience her new life as a woman, but finds that it's not quite as easy as she expected...
