Summary
Just before his eleventh birthday, Harry is found in a dark London alleyway. He is subsequently taken to stay in the home of one Severus Snape until he begins Hogwarts. Harry isn't quite sure what possessed him to agree to this arrangement, and Severus has no intention of allowing Potter's unfortunate progeny to get under his skin, but this is a Severitus fic, we all know how it ends.

Summary
“Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!”
“Stand aside, you silly girl… stand aside, now”.
And Lily Potter stepped aside.
Voldemort stared at her.
“... Is this some sort of trick?” he asked softly.
“No". Her voice was flat, lifeless. “You already killed James... If you let me live, then you can have Harry”.
Voldemort’s lip curled - not in amusement, but disgust. His own mother had died for him. Pathetic, yes, sentimental and foolish - but she had chosen to die so that he could live. Lily Potter wasn’t even choosing to care. Surely the child of prophecy deserved a better mother than this! Even he could give the boy to a better family to be raised right!
Voldemort slowly reached down and picked up the child.
He was still staring at him. He was still oddly silent. His eyes were still the colour of the Killing curse and brimming with power.
Yes, Voldemort decided, that was exactly what he’d do.
"You belong to me now" he whispered.
And with a crack like thunder, he turned on the spot, vanishing into the night.Or, the one where Harry Potter is raised by the Lestranges and it goes more or less how you would expect.

Stranded and bewildered, he spends over a year in an untamed forest, surviving and adapting to his new reality while waiting for rescue. During this time, he creates a small plot of land for himself and the surrounding Pokémon, cultivating a farm of berry trees, a secluded meadow, and a rough shelter.
One fateful day, Ethan is rescued by an experienced Pokémon Ranger, who helps him reach Eterna City. There, Ethan is welcomed by the community of Pokémon trainers, nurses, and League officials after his harrowing experience. Despite their warm reception, Ethan feels out of place and uncertain about his future in this unfamiliar world.

Summary
AU. Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, just a lonely orphan who goes to Hogwarts interested in learning Potions and making friends. But his Potions professor hates him, and Harry can make few friends when he has to conceal his snake familiar and his Parseltongue—and that he seems capable of bringing small animal constructs to life. Blaise Zabini is one of the few people invited into Harry’s secrets, a relationship that grows to be more and more important to both of them as the years pass.
