April skidded to a stop in front of the sign up desk. Huffing, she spoke to the woman in charge.
"Hello, I'd like to enter please...My name is April Arashi!"

Celeste waited backstage with the other coordinators while Obsidian gave her usual rant on pokemon contests and introduced the judges. She thought long and hard about her appeal as Vulpina towered behind her, looking over her shoulder while Celeste brushed Ming-ming. One by one, each of the coordinators were called to perform, and it was not long before Celeste was called up. With a deep breath, Celeste turned to her Zoroark and smiled, giving her a pat on the snout before picking up her remaining pokeballs, marching towards the stage.
"Good luck Celeste!" Ming-ming called as she and Vixen followed. Making it onto the stage, Celeste stopped at the edge where she would direct her pokemon, giving a bow to the audience while Vulpina and Ming-ming watched from the door to backstage. Taking out two pokeballs, Celeste tossed them high up into the air with gusto.
"Pendra, Reso, it's showtime!" She cried. The two pokemon emerged from a shower of stars and landed side by side, awaiting commands from their trainers. Taking another deep breath, Celeste raised her hand, her eyes fiery with determination.
"Reso, start us off with Magical Leaf! Pendra, Venoshock!" She commanded. Reso's arms glowed a bright green and he spun around, launching multi-colored leaves high into the air while Pendra's horns glowed purple, sending violet-colored lightening bolts into the sky with Reso's Magical Leaf. When she felt they were high enough, Celeste brought her hand down.
"Alright, stop it right there. Reso, use Confusion to make the pattern I taught you!" She commanded. The gallade stopped spinning and nodded, his eyes glowing blue as he took control of the leaves and the Venoshock, molding them together until he made a large, rainbow-colored Eevee. Using his confusion while Pendra continued to supply a Venoshock, Reso made the Eevee run above the audience while it morphed every lap.
On the first lap, it gracefully shifted from being an eevee to being a Vaporeon, which began to "swim". On the second lap, the Vaporeon morphed into a Jolteon, which went from swimming to bounding around. On the third lap, it turned into a Flareon, which hopped above the audience in a circle. On the fourth lap, Espeon emerged, and it gently floated, unmoving except for its swaying tail, in a circle. On the fifth lap, it turned into an Umbreon, who crouched before raising its head as high up as it could, as if howling. As the Umbreon ran again, it turned into a Glaceon, and some Pendra's Venoshock broke off from the Glaceon and began to twist and turn around it, simulating a blizzard with violent winds. The Glaceon continued to run for a few more laps before leaping towards the stage, morphing into a Leafeon which stayed still, observing the audience.
"Alright Pendra, go from Venoshock to Bug Buzz! Time to finish this guys!" She commanded. The Whirlipede made a sound of acknowledgement and stopped the Venoshock, beginning to hum instead as a reddish-orange wave rippled from her horns. Upon hitting the leafeon, the waves mingled with the Magical Leaf and the remaining Venoshock, outlining the false pokemon in a bright aura. Reso moved his arms up and the Leafon leapt into the air as Pendra concentrated the waves in her horns and fired, striking the leafeon in a massive explosion high above the audience, and embers of all colors fell around Reso and Pendra as they took a bow along with their trainer, returning backstage a moment later.
Pokemon Used:
Pendra (Whirlipede) Reso (Gallade)

April shuffled nervously as Con finished putting the last extension in her hair. She observed him from the mirror in front of her rather nervously. The girl before her, Celeste, had done really well, and she had been totally calm about it. Yet she was as nervous as ever. A soft shiver overcame her body, which Con felt through the extension.
“Don’t worry April, you’ll be fine.” April had met Conneko just outside of Dust Town, and the boy had eventually, after a lot of pestering, agreed to travel with her. It took a few days to get to where the contest was, but with the help of Mute the Suicune, it was easier than on foot.
“But Con, it’s not that easy! You let me borrow Forte and Stacatto, but they’ve never been in a contest before!” Con nodded, but insisted she’d be okay.
“Just give them commands. Those two will find some way to pretty it up.” He promised. April bit her lip but nodded. Vox was on the floor by her leg, rubbing his side against it with affection.
“Will you ever stop being an over affectionate little twerp?” Shiva questioned, glaring at the young fox. Vox opened one eye and stuck his tongue out at Shiva.
<I dunno, will you ever stop being so ugly?>
“One Day I will-“April gave them a sharp hushing sound and got up.
“Now you two stay here, they just called me." Con nodded and waved her out.
“I’ll be in the stands, just keep calm.” April nodded and stepped through the tunnel towards the Arena. As she exited onto the stage, the crowd fell quiet, like they had before. Dragging the two pokeballs from behind her back, the dress-clad girl threw them both up into the air.
“Forte, Stacatto,let’s go!” Appearing from a show of black rose petals, Forte and Stacatto landed on the ground neatly next to eachother. April paused…she hadn’t thought much farther than this.
“Stacatto…Take Forte up into the air with you.” Though the move was sort of weird to the pair, the runt of a Cyndaquil would be easy enough for Stacatto to lift into the air. The pink Murkrow allowed the Cyndaquil onto his back and jolted upwards, hovering in the air. The creativity was now flowing naturally within her, and she called out more easily.
“Now, use Wing Attack in a circle!”Stacatto spread his wings and began to fly around in circles above the crowds heads, his wings gaining a white shine that grew stronger as he went around.
“Stacatto, move over the stage! Forte, Use Flare Blitz!” Forte waited for Stacatto to thin out the width of the circle by moving in, before allowing flames to engulf his body. Hopping off, he let the pure pressure of the fire guide him as he began to circle Stacatto’s wings in a circle of X-shaped patterns.
“Now, Drill peck into the ground!” Stacatto headed for a straight dive-bomb, Forte still circling his wings and following his action. His wings lost the white shine, which his beak soon gained.
“Forte, Move!” As Forte flipped from the way, Stacatto’s beak slammed into the stage, sending bits and pieces of it flying into the air.
“Forte, Crush Claw!” Now out of his flare blitz, Forte let his paws glow and began tearing the pieces of the floor apart, to create a flowing rain of glittering Debris. He landed on Stacatto’s back, who was hovering just above the ground, ending the act. April bowed and quickly ushered both Pokemon off stage with her.
Pokemon Used:
Stacatto (Murkrow) Forte (Cyndaquil)
Moves Used:
Wing Attack Flare Blitz Drill Peck Crush Claw

After all the appeals had gone through, the coordinators waited backstage for the results. Celeste looked up at the monitor with hopeful eyes, and she nervously chewed her nails, which had not gone unnoticed by her stunky.
"That's not good for your fingers." Said Ming-ming. A musical roar lightly rung through the contest hall, prompting some people to look around.
What's not good for her fingers? Said a curious Reshiram, who waited outside and stared at the screen to watch her trainer. Celeste and Ming-ming laughed and the Coordinator sat down, pulling her legs up on the seat so she could hug them.
You won the last contest, why are you nervous? Ra-ra asked. Celeste sighed and looked down.
"My luck seems to have me lose five contest for every one I win." She said out loud. Vulpina put a comforting claw on Celeste's shoulder and gave her a confident smile, muttering something to Ming-ming.
"Vulpina says that she will do her best to bring you victory, and so will I. Please believe in us, we won't let you down." Ming-ming said, pawing at her leg. Celeste smiled as she picked up the stunky, hugging her tightly while bringing Vulpina into the hug.
"You could never let me down, no matter how many battles we lost." She said lovingly. The screen in the waiting room came back on as Obsidian danced onscreen.
"The judges have made their decision! These eight lucky coordinators will move on to the second battle!" She said, pointing up as the TV flashed to the selected screen. One by one, the pictures were revealed, and Celeste had made second place, while April came in 3rd. Celeste smiled as she stood up, setting Ming-ming down.
"Let's go girls." She said. Vulpina and Ming-ming gave an approving grin as they followed their trainer onstage.
Go get'em Celestemine. I am with you, I will be watching. Ra ra said in Celeste's head, making the coordinator smile.
The battles went relatively quick, and soon Celeste and April faced off on the final stage. Whoever won this would win the ribbon, and Celeste couldn't have been happier.
"Good luck, may the best coordinator win." She chirped as Obsidian came out.
"After so many exciting battles, we've come near the end of the contest! Celeste and April will face off in the final battle to determine who wins the ribbon! Each coordinator may use two pokemon. The goal is to deal heavy damage to each other while making the attacks beautiful to knock down your opponents score! When time runs out, the coordinator with the most points wins! You may also win by knocking out BOTH opponents pokemon. With five minutes on the clock, begin!"
"Vulpina, Ming-ming, it's showtime!" She said, throwing the pokeballs. With loud battle cries, the two pokemon flipped out of their pokeballs and slammed onto the battlefield, raring to go.
Vulpina: 37/37 Ming-ming: 27/27

Able to breath a sigh of relief when her picture came up on the Screen, April held on tightly to Vox. After a quick conversation with Con, the girl realized how fast the battles went, and how quickly she was on stage again. At Celeste's good luck, she nodded.
"Yes...good luck to you too." After Celeste sent out Her Zoroark and Stunky, April felt slightly intimidated.
"Vox, Shiva, let's go!" Vox and Shiva appeared in the trademark rose petals, and landed on the floor in front of their trainer.
"About time." <Remember not to Suck Shiva!>
"Shiva, use Brine on her Stunky, and Vox, Scratch on her Zoroark!" Vox ran out first, feeling a bit intimidated by the evolution. but stretched out his claws in an attempt to strike.
[RESULT: 6]
His claws managed to dig into the older Pokemon's fur, although he made a speedy retreat back to his side.
Shiva meanwhile, turned and let water spew from her tail, headed straight for Ming-Ming.
[RESULT: 3]
though the water splashed into Ming-Ming, it didn't appear to do too much.
Vox: 24/24 Shiva: 26/26
Vulpina: 31/37 Ming-ming: 24/27

Vulpina glared at the smaller pokemon while Ming-ming deflected the brine with her tail. Celeste's eyes burned with determination as she clenched her fists.
"Ming-ming, counter with Crunch! Vulpina, Aura Sphere on that Zorua!" She commanded. Ming-ming ran towards Shiva and leapt up high above her.
"HERE I COME!" She said as her mouth opened wide.
[RESULT: 4]
She chomped onto the feebas's tough skin while Vulpina brought her paws together, a teal orb forming between them. With an angry snarl, the Zoroark threw the orb at Vox.
[RESULT: 7] Super Effective +1
Vox: 16/24 Shiva: 22/26 Vulpina: 31/37 Ming-ming: 24/27

April finally feeling the heat, was quick to retaliate. Vox stumbled from the effect of the hit, but didn't falter in his determination. For such a little Pokemon, he had spunk.
"Come on guys, we can do this! Shiva, Switch your Target and use Brine on her Zoroark, and Vox, use Scratch on The Stunky now!" she called.
"Alright, let's try this! I will prevail!" the fish promised as she repeated her attack.
[RESULT: 0]
Though her words were soon countered by the result, and Vox tried out his scratch. [RESULT: 7]
Vox: 16/24 Shiva: 22/26 Vulpina: 31/37 Ming-ming: 17/27

Vulpina flipped out of the way of Shiva's attack, and Celeste decided to change tactics.
"Alright, Vulpina, Night Daze on the feebas! Ming-ming, give that Zorua a taste of your Smog attack!" She commanded. Vulpina's eyes pulsed with power as red energy burst forth from her, the circle widening towards Shiva.
[RESULT: Miss]
She slipped on some of the water, cutting off her attack while Ming-mings tail glowed, a purple fog bursting forth from the tip and making its way towards Vox.
[RESULT: 3]
Vox: 13/24 Shiva: 22/26 Vulpina: 31/37 Ming-ming: 17/27

April didn't know what else to do.Brine was the only move her Young Feebas could use, though Vox could switch it up.
"Vox, use Sucker punch! Use Brine on Zoroark again Shiva!" Shiva tried her attack once again, hoping to hit big like Vox had last turn.
[RESULT: 1]
Vox let his paws prickle with energy, flying towards Ming-Ming, determination still flashing in his eyes.
[RESULT: 1] (It's not Very effective!)
Vox: 13/24 Shiva: 22/26 Vulpina: 30/37 Ming-ming: 17/27

Vulpina and Ming-ming deflected the attacks with little effort, the pair giving their opponents a defiant look while Celeste grinned.
"Good job. Vulpina, Aura Sphere on the Zorua! Ming-ming, Crunch the Feebas!" She commanded. The two pokemon prepared their attacks, with Ming-ming running towards Shive and Vulpina charging another teal orb.
[RESULT: 0] Super Effective +1
As the Aura Sphere flew, all but completely missing its target, Ming-ming launched herself into the air, flying down towards Shiva.
[RESULT: 9]
She clamped down on Shiva's tail, sinking her teeth into the tough skin as best as she could.
Vox: 12/24 Shiva: 13/26 Vulpina: 30/37 Ming-ming: 17/27

Sawyer watched from high up in the stands, literally on her toes as she peered over the masses to watch Celeste. Luca was hopping up and down, flailing as he and his trainer cheered her on. She'd been somewhat quiet during the whole event, but now that it was literally down to the nitty-gritty, she couldn't help it.
"Ra-ra-ree! Kick 'em in the knee! Ra-ra-rass, kick 'em in... the other knee!" she cheered, laughing off the various looks she received from the people around her.
