How would a 'female Harry Potter reads the books' fanfiction differ from the original Harry Potter story?

The setting would be very different. Instead of growing up in the Dursleys' dull house, he'd be in the exciting world of the circus. His friends would be circus performers rather than Hogwarts students at first. And his magic might be used in more creative and performance - based ways.

The original Harry Potter story has a very British - centric magical world. But in the 'Harry Potter raised by Pokemon' fanfiction, there could be elements from the Pokemon world which are more global in nature. For example, Harry could have Pokemon friends from different regions. His magical abilities might also be influenced by Pokemon powers. His enemies might not just be Voldemort and his Death Eaters but also those who oppose the mixing of the two worlds. And his relationships with his friends would be different as they explore this new blend of magic and Pokemon together.

The most obvious difference would be his upbringing. In the original, he's raised by the Dursleys in a rather unpleasant environment. But in this fanfiction, with a scarecrow as his caregiver, he'd grow up in a rural, nature - filled setting. His values and views on magic would likely be different. He might not have the same exposure to the wizarding society's norms early on as he does in the original.

The biggest difference would be his upbringing. In the original, he was raised by the Dursleys in a Muggle environment with neglect and abuse. But with Arwen, he'd be in a more nurturing and magical environment from the start. His view of magic would be different, more like the elven view which is more in harmony with nature.

The biggest difference would be Harry's upbringing. In the original, he grew up with the Dursleys who were cruel to him. With Iroh, he'd have a loving and wise mentor from the start. His magical education might be different too. Iroh could teach him magic in a more holistic way, not just the spells Hogwarts teaches. Also, Harry's personality would likely be more serene and less angry, like Iroh's influence on him.

The biggest difference would be in Harry's upbringing. In the original, he was raised by the Dursleys which was bad but still in a relatively normal (albeit cruel) Muggle environment. With Slenderman, it would be a completely abnormal and often terrifying experience. His understanding of good and evil would be skewed. Also, the magic he'd learn and how he'd use it would be different. In the original, magic was mainly for positive things like protecting and helping others. Here, it could be used for more menacing or self - serving purposes.

In the original Harry Potter story, Harry had to discover his family's history and the wizarding world gradually. However, if he was raised in Potter Castle in a fanfiction, he would be immersed in it from day one. He would likely have a more natural understanding of magic and its workings. His relationships would also be different. Instead of having Ron and Hermione as his first real friends, he might have made friends with other magical beings or have different relationships with the portraits in the castle that could have guided him. His early experiences would shape him into a potentially more self - assured and magically - proficient Harry Potter, leading to a different trajectory for his adventures at Hogwarts and beyond.

The most obvious difference is Harry's identity. In the original, he is a Potter, which shapes his story in many ways. In this fanfiction, not being a Potter means different relationships and a different standing in the wizarding world.

In the original, Harry was raised by the Dursleys in a rather dull and unloving environment. But with the Mad Hatter, it would be a world of constant chaos and absurdity. Harry's understanding of magic would be shaped by Wonderland - like concepts rather than the traditional Hogwarts teachings.

In the original, Harry was raised in the Muggle world with the Dursleys, which was a rather oppressive environment. But with Lara Croft as his guardian, he'd be in a world of adventure. He'd learn to be more self - reliant and less reliant on the wizarding institutions.
