There are stories like that. To be fair, I'd say Neville is the butt of everyone's joke. He is a 4th year student facing extremely powerful wizards with decades or centuries of experience ahead of him. Harry Potter's life and 'death' in the series was manipulated by Dumbledore. In order to avoid that fate, especially in a world with a higher difficulty, he is going to have to struggle. We still don't know if she is going to be an enemy or an ally, but it was easy to presume she would attempt to manipulate him, considering Harry inherited his talent for magic from her.
I know you said you wouldn't use much Gen 9 Pokemon, but Mankey's new evolution, Annihilape could be an exception. It's method of evolution is to spam a move called Rage Fist and, according to the description, the Primeape will die of anger in order to become an Annihilape. You could even use it to show MC's cruelty, with a Primeape starting to become more and more worn down and dying, but MC pressuring it to continue until he dies.
I think this might be the 5th woman.
Well... he is honest.
Cuz he is lying about himself prob.
