Fics like Selfish? I prefer the term pragmatic.

If the "Power of Friendship" were a school subject, the Pokémon world would have a ninety-nine percent failure rate—and Madeleine would personally sign the expulsion papers for everyone. Reincarnating in Kanto was supposed to be a fun experience, but for someone with Madeleine’s exacting standards (and the patience of an abyss), the League circuit looks more like an open-air madhouse teeming with amateurs. Armed with a chronic refusal to deal with idiots, an elite pedigree that includes her aunt Agatha, and a lethal team she hand-picked with precision, she decided she didn't come to this world to make friends. She came to teach a masterclass in supremacy. The plan is simple: crush the Kanto Gyms, rise to the top, and (as a bonus) claim the smartest, wealthiest, and most impeccable man across all regions: the Champion of Hoenn, Steven Stone. He’s on his own. Because on Madeleine’s chessboard, if you aren't cut out to win, you’re just a stepping stone. And the ultimate prize already has an owner.
