Hey everybody, prepare to be amazed. I love songfics so much that I am creating a big one. By the way if you have nothing good to say about my story don't say anything at all (constructive criticism is fine though) and if you don't like this kind of story then don't read it.

Whew. Anyway I don't own Pokémon and I hope you enjoy.

Chapter 1: The Competition

It is a beautiful sunny day in June and a sixteen year old May had just won a contest (well tied with Drew) and was heading to the Pokémon Center to heal her Pokémon. "I have to stop tying with Drew someday, right?" she sighed as she went into the Pokémon center.

May had just handed over her Pokémon and was thanking Nurse Joy when she heard a familiar voice behind her "Hey May, still can't win I see." May turned around to see the smirking seventeen year old male she travelled with looking at her, "If I remember correctly you didn't win either Drew," she said smirking back. There was a pause, then "Ha speechless, I'm getting better and better at comebacks," May gloated.

"We'll I guess we should be going Miss Gloatsalot," Drew says and starts pulling May out of the Pokémon center (the two had been traveling together for three years now and calling each other names almost constantly). "Stop right there Speedy Gonzales, I need to get my Pokémon and I'm not done here, Floraroma town is beautiful," she retorted stopping in her tracks.

"Fine, we can look around town until your Pokémon are ready, let's go," Drew agreed reluctantly. May did a happy dance and Drew sweat dropped, and then they walked through the town. May was enjoying herself looking at all the flowers, while Drew was counting the seconds to their departure.

Just then May stopped in her tracks at a T.V. store spotting a commercial she liked and Drew just rolled his eyes at her until he saw the screen. They were both staring at this commercial:

Do you love to sing? Do you want express yourself? Then Japanese Idol is here for you. Anyone from anywhere in Japan is welcome to try. Tell someone your singing to them or just sing for fun! Sing your heart out to make it to the top and become the best! The Grand Prize is $1 million dollars! Register in your home region now! (Opportunities for shout outs only given to top 16).

May's eyes lit up and Drew had to hold the back the urge to laugh at her before she pulled him away. "We. Have. To. Go. Now." May huffed as she pulled an awkward looking Drew along.

"You're not really going all the way back to Hoenn for a singing contest, are you?" Drew says to a determined May. "Yes I am and it's not just a singing contest, it's a way to express yourself to the world and win money." Drew sighed he knew he couldn't say no to May and secretly he wanted to compete as well.

So then and there May and Drew had decided to go back to Hoenn for the contest. May wondered if she would see Ash or any of his friends in the competition for it had been five years since she travelled with him and four since that visit in Sinnoh, so she couldn't wait to get to the top sixteen.

The next day they both boarded a cruise ship bound for the Hoenn region. May thought about what to sing and who to sing it to while Drew thought about whether May could actually. "May can you actually sing?" he asked. "Of course I can," she retorted with a raspberry attached to the end and Drew just sighed at the wonder of the girl who was somehow one of his best friends (and the girl he secretly liked).

...

This was the beginning of a nationwide scramble to get home. Dawn heard about the competition during a contest in Johto, jumped for joy and immediately started dragging Kenny back to Sinnoh. Misty, who was training in the Orange Islands, screamed at the top her lunges when she saw the commercial at a Pokémon center (consequently scaring everyone around except Tracy, who was quite used to this from her by now). Brianna was in Johto training to be as good a coordinator as Drew when she heard about it and immediately left for home (thinking she could woo Drew with song). Many others came from near and far, even Jesse from team rocket, who thought that this was her chance to be a star and raced from Unova to Kanto with James and Meowth shaking their heads behind her.

With hundreds of people returning home the auditions began in every region (people from the orange islands auditioned in Kanto). Slowly people were eliminated and others moved up in the competition, but the announcement of the top sixteen was still weeks away so anticipation rose.

I hope you liked it and if you have any ideas of who should be in the top 16 and what they should sing let me know. :)
