AN: As soon as I read that in BW2 there would be a chance to refight all previous gym leaders, I knew I would get the game. This is just a story with different perspectives in how each of the different regions would try to bring honor to their region by every single league member of the different regions participating in the World Tournament! Oh yeah, Jared is based off of the male hero in Black and White 2.
Pokémon World Tournament
Jared's POV
7:15 p.m.
Undella Town, Unova
The Pokémon World Tournament...
Those three words were only what I had dreamed about two years ago. I remember being a little boy, eating dinner at an Undella Town villa when there was a TV advertisement. It showed details of the new feature coming to Undella Town, known as the Pokémon World Tournament. The Tournament itself said that Gym Leaders from all over the world came together to battle. That alone got me pumped up.
I had traveled through Hoenn before, and had made some friends out of the gym leaders. I was freaking PUMPED to see them again in the Tournament, so we could battle like old times. Even previous CHAMPIONS would show up!
I wasn't worried about the battles though. My team was ready for anything that they pulled on me. No Gym Leader scared me at all, especially considering the fact that I was not only partners with my Pokémon, but friends with them as well. They would pull through for me.
Oh wait, I should probably introduce my team and myself first. My name is Jared Charia. I'm from Aspertia City, and have so far, collected all eight gym-badges from each of the eight gym leaders in Unova. To be honest, I felt like it was too easy, especially for my team.
Speaking of my team, here they are. First is Mifune, my Samurott. I got the big guy as a little Oshawott in Aspertia City. The girl who gave it to me was named Bianca. She's an assistant to Professor Juniper of Nuvema Town.
After Mifune is Fungi, my Amoonguss. I caught it at Route 6, and fell in love with the guy. He really helped support Mifune when he needed it, and is one of my best friends.
Third is Blacklight, the Chandelure. When I was visiting my deceased grandfather near Mistralton, I saw him as a little Litwick near his grave. It seemed to be protecting it, and I was grateful for it. It followed me out of the cave, probably knowng I had connections with the grave it had served.
Fourth is Altair the Braviary. One time, during my adventures, some thugs cornered me at the streets of Black City. Braviary, despite being rare in the area, came and swooped me away. After soaring in the air for a good half hour, he put me down. Again, I was in his debt.
After Altair is my Musharna, Nights. I always was interested in the Pokémon as a child, so I decided to look for it. After hours of relentless searching near Aspertia City, one eventually found me back home.
Finally, there is Lutte, the Scrafty. When I first met him, he was stealing my supplies. This didn't bother me; I had loads of money in my bag. However, he had a certain charm that made me want to capture him.
All six of these guys are my team, and can't be replaced. Not only can they not be replaced, they also can't be beaten. Wherever you're from, whether it is Kanto or Sinnoh, watch out.
Normal POV

Location Unknown
A man was waiting on his burgundy chair. The shadows coming through the windows covered his face, while one of his secretaries fed him the latest news.
"Sir, the Pokémon World Tournament has been announced to start this Tuesday," the secretary explained to the man. Though the secretary couldn't see it, the man smirked. Suddenly, the burgundy recliner was left alone, while the man stood up. His face was still obscured however, by the shadows of midnight.
"That means, in only four days, the International Pokémon League will form at one spot. From each region, Unova takes a good two-day trip. That will be plenty of time," the man said. He was speaking into a voice distorter, so his voice sounded even more sinister than what it already was.
"Sir, the seeds have been planted. All we have to do now is wait," the secretary replied, grinning. The man stepped closer to the secretary; his face was still obscured, but a suit of violet was visible.
"As Napoleon once said, it's time to divide and conquer…" the man stated, sinisterly. The words of the man sent chills down even the toughest secretary. This was not the toughest secretary.
"Indeed, sir," the secretary replied, and then made his leave.
May's POV
3:14 a.m.
S.S. Tidal
When I wake up, the first thing I see is Brendan next to me. His white hair is ruffled from him sleeping. I stroked his hair, thinking of how he was the best thing that had ever happened to me.
Brendan and I were the official champions of Hoenn. It's pretty high honor, but we don't think of it too highly. We're still just like regular teenagers, who just happened to have some talent in Pokémon battling.
We fell in love sometime in Sootopolis City. We were gazing at the stars outside. Our Pokémon were basically our fields of grass. Suddenly, we just turned to face each other, and kissed passionately.
That's beside the point, though. I'm here with him because we get to participate in the Pokémon World Tournament! It's one of the highest honors that we could've ever gotten!
I was very excited to go on the trip, so I could make friends with the other League members from Kanto, Johto, and Sinnoh.
All of the regional Gym Leaders, Champions, and Elite Four members were going to be there to participate in the Tournament. That meant that the Hoenn league members would be there as well! Brendan and I had a few close friendships with a lot of the league members as well. We also brought someone else with us, who inspired me.
Wally was in the bed next to Brendan and I's. He was still sleeping peacefully, and looked cute when he slept. Wally always had that innocent look with him, where you couldn't stay mad at him. His light green hair moved ever so slightly, while his newly hatched Togepi was being held with him as he slept. Wally got his Togepi from my dad, Norman, the Normal-type Gym Leader from Petalburg City.
As I stepped out of our room, I noticed that Roxanne and Flannery were in the hallways. They walked over to greet me with grins.
"Couldn't sleep either?" I asked the two of them. They both nodded. Roxanne and Flannery were probably two of the best Trainers I had met. The other Gym Leaders were all amazing in their own ways as well.
"I'm just excited, because we get to meet the other Gym Leaders from the other regions!" Flannery said eagerly. She had been training with her Fire-type Pokemon for a long time, to prepare for this.
"There's only one more day until we get to Unova!" Roxanne stated. I blinked, and then I realized; today was Monday!
"It's supposed to be a six-on-six tournament, right?" Flannery asked me. I nodded, showing her the Pokémon I had brought from Hoenn. They were all Hoenn-exclusive, so I felt proud to bring them. That was one of the rules of the tournament; you were only allowed to bring Pokémon that can be found in your region, and they had to be your type-specialty unless you were a current or former Champion.
"I've already got my team set up. They allowed me to choose a Fire-type Pokémon from another region, because there are only five in Hoenn," Flannery announced.
"Which Pokémon are you using, Flan?" I asked her, intrigued by her confidence. If Flannery were challenged to go up against the world, she would take the challenge with the utmost confidence. It was an admirable thing about her.
"Blaziken, Camerupt, Magcargo, Torkoal, Ninetales, and Houndoom," Flannery answered, enthusiastically. She had full faith that her Pokémon would be able to beat anyone.
"I'll be using Golem, Aggron, Lunatone, Cradily, Armaldo, and Relicanth," Roxanne announced.
"Brawly's has already come up with his, I've heard," I discussed the Fighting-type Leader's team. It turns out that Brawly didn't reveal his team to anyone!
"I guess that's one strategy. He has the element of surprise, at least," Roxanne complimented the Gym Leader's tactics.
"What did you expect? He learned from Bruno," Flannery giggled, and all three of us went back to bed.
I didn't go back to sleep yet with Brendan, however. Instead, I lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling. Tomorrow was a big day. It was time to show that Hoenn shined brighter than any other region.
