We see a fairly large island, with your beach to the north, your mountains to the east, your forest in the middle, and open areas for the campgrounds.
But we see something different on the docks, something we haven't seen before.
There stands a figure that has a very thin body, with blue, yellow, and pink stripes all over his body. With his left arm blue and his right arm pink. His shoes are long as his left show has a pink ball on it while his right shoe has a blue ball on it. His shoes appears to be more as of high heels with one white ball on each shoe on the heel to help balance this figure. He also had a white ball on his chest, as his figure resembled as a clown. His hands were more as of claws with only having one claw instead of the usual two on each side of his arm. Now his neck and head is what appears to be a flower blooming but his head was way different than that. His head was a bigger white ball, that can easily disconnect from his neck. His head also had many blue and pink dots all over, with two blue and pink flowers on the side where the ears should be.
He looked at the camera and bowed. "Hello, and welcome, to Total Burst Island. You may not have seen me before, and I don't judge you for that. But you, you can just call me Burst."
"Don't forget about me!" Another figure said.
Burst chuckled. "Oh how could I? Get over here for the audience to see."
The second figure revealed himself, and he was more recognizable than Burst. He is a small Pokémon with a gaseous body similar to a nebula. He has two wisp-like extensions that serve as arms and an ellipse running down his body. Its front and back are black in color. He has yellow eyes and two blue cheeks. He is identified as a Cosmog.
"Now this here is my co-host Cog, my best friend." Burst introduced.
Cog waved to the camera. "How's it going guy?"
"Now, before we go to anywhere else, I would like to promise you something." Burst started.
"Have you ever got tired of the same host? Being sadistic and heartless to the contestants? Have you ever got bored of seeing the same kinds of challenges, over and over and over? Well, consider me your cure for that. I will be different from the rest, something new. I will bring a new experience for TPI, as I will do my best to reach for the top!" Burst shouted. "Now, there will 36 contestants on this show, two from each Pokemon type. And the grand prize, is not just one million Pokedollars, but," Cog teleports in a giant handful of suitcases, all filled with money. "One hundred million Pokedollars! All tax free of course."
"Hey Burst." Cog interrupted.
Burst looked at Cog, while still keeping the same pose. "Not now Cog, I'm trying to make things exciting for the audience here."
"Well, I just wanted to tell you that the first contestant is coming." Cog said.
Burst looks out afar and sees a boat coming. "Oh, well let's see them then."
The first boat comes and drops off the first Pokemon. He is a large grey rabbit with a brown sash like band around his waist with a yellow center. His most noticeable features are his two giant ears, ones that resemble arms with three fingers each. His paws, mouth, and feet are also all brown.
He is a Diggersby, and he walked to the two hosts with a carrot in his mouth.
"Ah, hello Diggersby, how are you doing? Burst asked.
"Feeling good, but I would feel better with the prize money." Diggersby replied, sheepishly smiling.
"Sorry, but you can only get that by winning fair and square." Cog commented.
"Damn, well I tried." Diggersby said, before he took a look at Burst. "Well, I thought I would never see the day. The day a piece of candy hosts a TV show."
Burst twitched. "Just call me Burst, and it would be wise for your well being if you don't call me that again."
Diggersby raises his ears up in defense. "Alright, whatever floats your boat."
"Now, can you please go to the end of the docks? The other contestants will meet you there when they arrive." Burst requested.
"Roger roger." Diggersby said, before he went along to the end of the docks.
"One down, 35 to go." Cog said.
"This is going to take a while." Burst commented, before he saw the next contestant arrive.
The contestant was a yellow spider, with a yellow and blue body. She had six eyes with four of them being small and two being two main eyes. She has six yellow legs with four being on the side and two at her face.
She is a Galvantula, and she was constantly shaking.
"Hello there Galvantula, are you doing okay?" Cog asked.
"Y-Y-Yeah, just a little n-n-nervous is all." Galvantula stuttered.
"Well, you have nothing to worry here. Nothing should be too much for you to handle here. You'll be able to adjust here just fine." Burst assured.
"T-Thank you." Galvantula said.
"You're welcome, now please head on to the end of the docks." Burst requested.
Galvantula nodded and went to where she was supposed to go while still shaking.
She started calming down when she thought she was alone when-
"Hey there, Diggersby started. "How are-"
Galvantula screamed in fear and out of nowhere, a Thunder hit right on Diggersby.
Burst and Cog quickly turned around to saw that just happen. "Remind me not to scare her." Burst whispered to Cog. "I don't think I would forget." Cog whispered back.
Diggersby though was fine, as he looked up and chuckled. "Thank you Arceus for giving me the Ground typing." Diggersby looked back at Galvantula. "I can see you're a little panicky, but do me a favor and be more careful. Not everyone's going to be a Ground Type."
Galvantula nodded. "R-Right, sorry."
"Although, it would be a little funny to see that happen. The sight would be quite, illuminating." Diggersby said to himself, chuckling at his own joke.
The next Pokemon that arrived at the docks is a cicada's exoskeleton. He has a light brown body with a gray abdomen. He also has a white halo floating above his head. He has wings on his back with three tips, but they don't appear to be moving at all. He has a hole on his back where his wings are.
He was a Shedinja, as he floats out of the boat and to the two hosts.
"Greetings Shedinja, how do you feel being on this show?" Burst asked.
"Just as I always feel….nothing." Shedinja quietly muttered.
"What was that?" Cog asked.
"Nothing. I feel ecstatic. Thank you for bringing me here." Shedinja replied.
"Well, you're welcome Shedinja. Now can you please go to the other two contestants at the end of the docks?" Burst asked.
Shedinja looked at where Burst was talking about and slowly floated his way to the contestants.
"Well hey there Mr. Hollows, names Diggersby. And this is Galvantula. But I wouldn't be too close. She's has what you would call a panic button." Diggersby said.
"H-H-Hello. Nice to m-m-meet you." Galvantula stuttered.
"Whatever, I'll just be over here." Shedinja said halfheartedly and went a little farther from the other two.
"Oh, was it s-s-something I said?" Galvantula asked.
"Nah, I don't think so. I think that's what who he is. At least you didn't electrocute him, that would be quite, shocking." Diggersby replied, chuckling at his own joke.
Diggersby looked at Galvantula and she wasn't laughing one bit.
"What? I thought it was funny." Diggersby said.
Shedinja on the other hand heard what Diggersby said about who he was, but he didn't care. He didn't care about anything, except for his one particular goal in mind.
Another boat came and the next contestant came out.
He is two swords sheathed on a plaque. Each sword has a pink eye with a black, linear pupil on the hilt, as well as a pink, tassel-like arm emerging from the handle.
He is a Doublade, and he floated to the two hosts.
"And the two blades arrive, welcome aboard Doublade!" Burst shouted.
"Greetings, I am glad to be on your show. I thought I would never be accepted." Doublade said.
"Well now you're here, so fear is now over." Cog replied.
"Doublade, please go to the end of the docks with the rest of the contestants. The rest should be with you shortly." Burst requested.
Doublade nodded and went to the others as requested.
"So the I said, that's not an Ultra Beast, that's just a Muk." Diggersby said, finishing his joke.
This finally got a laugh out of Galvantula as Doublade met up with the two.
Diggersby notices the Doublade and grins. "Oh look, another one. Hello there blades."
Doublade nods. "Greetings you two. Would you mind if I would here some of your jokes as well."
This got Diggersby to smile. "Well of course you can. Let me start another, so there's this one Pelipper that-"
While Diggersby was telling his jokes, another Pokemon entered the docks. He has a dark purple body, with sharp teeth and claws. He even had two big gemstone-like eyes.
He is a Sableye, and he went to the two hosts.
"Ah, if it isn't Sableye, how was the trip?" Burst asked.
"It was pleasant, but the boat driver got real mad at me." Sableye replied.
"And why's that?" Burst asked.
"Because I have a….problem." Sableye replied nervously.
Burst didn't know what Sableye was talking about. Until-
"Hey?! Where did my tie go?!" Cog asked.
Burst looked at Sableye and saw Cog's tie in his hands.
Sableye looked at what Burst was looking at and sheepishly chuckled. "Yeah, that problem. Sorry. I honestly have no control of myself."
Cog was upset and swiped the tie off of Sableye's hands. "Don't do that again."
"Hey! Where's mine?!" Burst shouted, looking for his missing tie.
Cog glared at Sableye and Sableye looked at his right hand to see Burst's tie this time. "Dammit, not again."
Burst went over and swiped the tie away from Sableye. "Just go to the other contestants already."
Sableye sighed and went to the others.
Burst was adjusting his tie. "I can already tell we're going to have problems with him."
"Tell me about it." Cog groaned.
Doublade noticed Sableye walking towards them and got the other's attention.
"Hello there, welcome to the island." Doublade greeted.
"Thanks. Though my experience here may not be the best for me." Sableye said.
"W-W-Why would you think t-t-that?" Galvantula stuttered.
"Well, I ticked off the hosts just moments after getting here." Sableye replied.
"Really? Now how on earth did you accomplish that?" Doublade asked curiously.
Before Sableye could reply, Diggersby noticed his carrot was gone. "Hey! Who took my carrot?!"
Sableye looked and there was Diggeresby's carrot in his hand. "Heh heh, great."
Diggersby went over to Sabeley and satched the carrot with his left ear. "Swiper no swiping!"
Another boat came in and two Pokemon came out this time.
One is a small pink Pokemon with what seems to be corals branching out of her body.
The second has a pink body, with what looks like she's wearing a long dress and pink and white stripe pants. She remembers as a bug as she has a pink body and pink eyes.
The first is a Corsola and the second is a Lurantis, as they both went to the two hosts.
"Ah, Corsola, Lurantis, welcome to the show." Burst greeted.
"Thank you!" Corsola shouted happily.
"...thanks." Lurantis quietly said.
"Well, just join with the other contestants at the end please, more will arrive shortly." Cog said.
They both nod and does just that.
Diggersby sees the two female Pokemon and grin. "Hey Galvantula, how about you go and make some new friends?"
"M-M-Me?" Galvantula asked. "I-I-I don't know. I don't think-"
"Nah, I think it's a great idea. Got get 'em girl." Diggersby said, as he pushed Galvantula to the two with his ears.
Galvantula got pushed to the two, but they started talking amongst themselves and were getting along quite nicely.
Diggersby chuckled. "They grow up so fast."
Another Pokemon came out of a boat. He is a large red ape, with large fiery eyebrows, black-ringed eyes, and two long arms. He walked down the docks with a fairly large suitcase in his right hand.
"Welcome to the show Darmanitan, but may I ask why bring a suitcase? I assure you we brought all your belongings right here." Burst assured.
"I know, I just needed to carry this with me personally. It's not a weapon I promise." Darmanitan assured.
"Alright, please go to the others at the end of the dock." Cog requested.
Darmanitan smiled. "Right on."
Darmanitan went along to the rabbit and swords. "How's it going bros?"
"I am doing just fine. Thank you for asking." Doublade calmly replied.
Darmanitan stretched and yawned. "Man, I'm so tired."
"Hello so tired, I'm Diggersby." Diggersby joked, smiling.
Darmanitan chuckled. "Haha, very funny."
"Thank you, I'm here all night." Diggersby said, smiling some more.
The next Pokemon came out of the boat and he resembles a fully grown lion. His face, hind legs, torso, and back are blue, while the rest of his body is covered in big shaggy black fur. He has yellow eyes and a yellow star at the end of his tail.
He is a Luxray, as he walked his way to the two hosts.
"Ah, and here we have Luxray. Welcome!" Burst greeted. "How are you-"
"Just leave me alone and we'll be fine." Luxray interrupted, as he walked past the two hosts and went to the other contestants.
"Oh, so we're going to have one of those contestants?" Burst muttered.
"It seems so, we're going to have fun." Cog muttered back.
Luxray went along to the other contestants at the end of the dock.
Diggersby saw the Luxray and went up to him. "Hey there, names Diggersby. Welcome aboard the island." He reached his right ear for Luxray to shake.
Luxray saw the ear and softly slapped it away. He then walked passed the rest and sat down by himself.
"Well, I wonder what dog chased him this morning." Diggersby asked himself.
Shedinja looked and saw how Luxray was sitting by himself like how he's doing, but he looked away. Not like he cared.
The next Pokemon arrived to the docks. She resembled a green bipedal Cactus, with smaller dark green spikes on her arms, legs, and chest. She has a dark green hat and yellow eyes. There are six small holes where her mouth should be, making a grinning smile.
She is a Cacturne, and she happily went up to the two hosts.
"Hello there Cacturne!" Burst greeted. "It's great to have-"
Cacturne interrupted Burst by giving him a hug, a painful one at that. "I'm so happy to be here! Thank you so much!"
"Y-You're welcome. But can you let go? This is quite painful with your spikes." Burst winced.
Cacturne let go and giggled. "I know, and it's music to my ears."
She went along to the of the docks while the two hosts a bit scared for their safety, especially Burst.
"Note to self, order a Bulletproof vest around her." Burst whispered.
"Alright doing that as we speak." Cog whispered back.
Cacturne happily went to the others and hugged Sableye out of nowhere.
"It's so nice to be here!" Cacturne shouted happily.
"Ack! The pain!" Sableye shouted in pain.
Some of the others like Diggersby and Darmanitan chuckled a little bit.
"Who else wants some of my hugs?" Cacturne asked.
Diggersby and Darmanitan both panicked, as Diggersby pointed at the lion.
Cacturne saw and smiled, as she dropped the hurting Sableye. "Hey there friend, want a hug?"
Luxray widened his eyes and growled. "Back off!"
But Cacturne ignored Luxray and hugged him anyways.
Luxray growled. "I said back off!"
Luxray fired a Discharge on Cacturne and that got her to let go.
Cacturne shook her head. "Heh heh, wow. It's usually me giving the pain, not the other way around."
Two more Pokemon came out of the boat.
One is a another rabbit Pokemon. But dark brown fur and a short, round tail. She has pink eyes and cream-colored fur on her eyebrows and very long ears.
The second Pokemon is a chicken-like Pokemon. His body is red, with accents of beige, yellow, and gray. Behind his head, there are beige, hair-like feathers that continue downward and surround his chest and abdomen. He has a small red face with a V-shaped crest on its head. He has blue eyes and a hooked beak. He has featherless, gray hands with three fingers each, and three clawed toes that are not normally visible due to the shaggy, yellow feathers on the bottom of his legs.
The first one is a Lopunny while the second is a Lopunny looked happy and cheerful while the Blaziken looked stern and serious. The two walked down to Burst and Cog.
"Lopunny, Blaziken, welcome to the show! If you can would you kindly make your way to the end of the docks with the other contestants?" Burst asked.
Lopunny saw the other contestants and smiled. She started going to them but Blaziken stopped her.
"Don't socialize with the enemy. We're only here to win." Blaziken said.
"But brother, I just want to say hi. Is that really so bad?" Lopunny asked sadly.
Blaziken gave Lopunny a look and she drooped her ears.
"We're here to win. You fully well know why we have to. Being friendly with the enemy will get you nowhere but one ticket out of here. Do you want that?" Blaziken asked.
"No." Lopunny simply replied.
Blaziken nodded and the two went off to a separate area a little away from the group by themselves.
While the two were by themselves, Diggersby noticed they were there and wanted to at least introduce himself. He went to the two Pokemon.
"Hey there, names Diggersby. Good to have you two here." Diggersby said, taking a bite out of his carrot.
Lopunny smiled and waved while Blaziken grumbled and folded his arms. "Alright, you said your greeting. Now leave."
"Woah there tiger, or bird, calm down. I'm just saying hello, where's the harm in that?" Diggersby asked.
"The harm is that you're still here. Now would you leave us alone?" Blaziken asked, already getting annoyed by the rabbit.
Diggersby frowned, he didn't like this guy's attitude. But an idea dawned on him and he smiled. "Alright, I'll leave you be. But only if you do one small thing."
"And what's that?" Blaziken asked.
Diggersby pointed at Galvantula. "I'll leave you alone, if you go to that Galvantula and say hi to her."
"That's it?" Blaziken asked.
"That's it." Diggersby replied.
"Well, it can't be too hard." Blaziken commented, as he started his way to the electric spider.
"You might wanna watch what happens next. It'll definitely be a sight to see." Diggersby whispered to Lopunny.
Lopunny didn't know what Diggersby was talking about, but she kept watch anyways.
Blaziken went behind Galvantula and cleared his throat. "Hey."
This surprised Galvantula, as she turned around and screamed out of fear. A few seconds later, a Thunder was hit right on Blaziken.
Everyone else saw it happen as they were either terrified, surprised, or even some chuckling, like Diggersby and Cacturne.
Blaziken was smoked like a cooked bird. Some of the others joined in on the laughing, especially Lopunny.
Blaziken looked at Diggersby as he had a smile. "Well, looks like someone over cooked their turkey."
Blaziken growled and gave Diggersby a look of pure rage.
While that was going on, the next contestant arrived.
She is a large dragon, covered and dripping with goo. Her ventral portion is mauve, her dorsal side is lavender, and she bright green eyes. She has a thick tail that curls inward and two large antennae at the top of her head.
She is a Goodra, and she is happy as she walks down the docks to the two hosts.
"Welcome to our show Goodra! How are you feeling?" Burst asked.
"I'm feeling great. Thank you for having me here." Goodra replied, smiling kindly.
"Of course, now pleaseplease head over to the end of the docks.
Goodra made her way to the end of the docs and met with some of the other female contestants.
"Hello everyone, you all doing okay?" Goodra asked.
"Great! Thanks for asking!" Corsola shouted happily.
The other two, Galvantula and Lurantis weren't so peppy and nodded.
Goodra got to Galvantula and Lurantis. "You two shy with everyone here, right?"
"Y-Y-Yes." Galvantula replied.
"...yes." Lurantis quietly replied.
Goodra giggled and hugged the two. "Well don't worry, I'll try not to be too much for you two."
The other two felt comfortable around Goodra and gave small smile.
Another Pokemon arrive from the boat.
She is a short, bipedal Pokemon. She has a yellow body, with black arms and feet. Her legs have fur resembling a skirt. Her most noticeable feature is the pair of giant black jaws behind her head, that can snap at anyone at any moment.
She is a Mawile, as she went along the docks to the two hosts.
"Why hello there Mawile, welcome to our show." Cog greeted.
Burst gave Cog a look. "Excuse me? That's my job."
Cog gave Burst a look back and folded his wisp-like arms. "I haven't said anything when a lot of the contestants came. I think I deserve to say welcome to at least fine."
Burst folded his arms and grumbled. "Fine."
Mawile giggled. "I can tell you two are close friends."
"Well, that's a good observation there. Now would you please make way to the end of the docks? As you can see the other contestants are there as well." Burst requested.
Mawile nodded and went her way to the end of the docks.
Mawile saw Pokemon like Darmanitan and Doublade holding back a really pissed off looking Blaziken, as he was trying to go at a Diggersby.
"Hey there Don't kill me! It's just a prank bro!" Diggersby shouted, smiling sheepishly.
"I'M GOING TO SMASH THROUGH THAT STUPID GRIN OF YOURS!" Blaziken roared in anger.
"Careful there Turkey, don't want to be cooked anymore than you already am." Diggersby joked.
Blaziken just yelled more in anger and struggled harder.
Mawile walked to Sableye. "What's going on here?"
"Long story short, Diggersby made a joke, and now blaziken wants him dead." Sableye replied.
"Oh, well, this is going to take a while. Hello, my name's Mawile." Mawile greeted the imp.
Sableye smiled. "Hey, names Sableye. You should probably be careful around me though, I'm quite the Kleptomaniac."
"You're fine Sableye, as long as you're a good guy and don't mean what you steal." Mawile assured.
Sableye smiled more. "Heheh, thanks."
Mawile smiled back. "Anytime."
Another Pokemon came to the docks, but he wasn't on a boat, he was up in the air flying, but not with wings either, but with a jet pack.
He is a dark purple, squid-like Pokemon. He has a pair of fins that serves as legs, a pair of fins that serves as long arms, and eight tentacles serving as his wavy hair. He has an orange beak, and yellow eyes, with eight yellow dots at his chest.
He is a Malamar, and he also is wearing giant glasses as he is flying in a jet pack.
Burst and Cog look up. "What the hell?!" Burst asked.
The rest of the contestants looked up as well, this even caused Blaziken to stop aggroing on Diggersby.
"What are you doing up there?!" Cog asked.
"Please, I don't trust no flimsy boat! I am a man of science! I rely on my own inventions to get me here!" Malamar responded proudly.
A few seconds later, smoke came out of Malamar's jet pack.
Malamar saw this and had a worried look on his face. "Oh dear."
It wasn't long before he started flying out of control, screaming for his life as he crashed to the docks.
All of the contestants, winced at that. Well, there was a few that didn't. Cacturne was one of them, as she was hiding a giggle with her arm.
"Houston, we have a problem. A crash landing has just occurred." Diggersby joked.
"Is the bro okay?" Darmanitan asked.
Mawile went up to the Malamar. "Are you okay?" She asked.
Malamar got up and grinned. He showed that he had what appeared to be rubbery vest around his body. "Don't fear, for I have my rubber vest absorb the impact and broke my fall. I have made it unharmed in the name of science!"
Mawile sighed with relief. "Well, at least you're okay."
"I appreciate the concern, but as long as I have science, I shall be perfectly safe!" Malamar said proudly, before the rubber vest popped and the rubber inside the vest got ruined. "Oh dear."
Mawile giggled and started leading Malamar to the end of the docks with the rest of the contestants. "Let's just bring you with the rest in case something else bad happens."
As Mawile brought Malamar to the end of the docks, another Pokemon came out of a boat this time.
He is a bipedal feline-like Pokemon, with digitless appendages and two big blue tails. His whole body is blue, except for the end of his arms, collar around his neck, end tips of his tails and ears, and the tuft of fur between his ears. His eyes are green, with dark-green irises.
He is a Meowstic, and he started walking slowly to the two hosts, but he was partially crippled as he had a black cane, helping him support his right leg as he walked with it.
He made it to the two hosts.
"Well hello Meowstic, you doing okay?" Cog asked, ruining Burst's greetings again.
"I'm feeling just dandy." Meowstic replied. He looked over and saw the rest of the contestants at the end of the docks. "I take it I need to go over there?"
"Why yes, if you would please." Burst requested.
Meowstic slowly started his way to the end of the docks, taking one step at a time with his cane.
Some of the other contestants felt pity for the blue feline, some like Mawile, Goodra, and Lurantis.
Mawile came up to Meowstic and offered help by reaching her hand out to him.
"Here, let me help you." Mawile said, smiling kindly.
Meowstic looked at the offered hand, and lightly tapped it away with his cane. "I'm fine. I don't need assistance."
Mawile frowned. "But, your cane."
"Why yes, it is indeed a cane. You must be so smart knowing that." Meowstic said sarcastically. "I'm fine. I'm not completely crippled. I can still eat, think and see just like everyone else here. I'm not a helpless little baby that needs his hand held. Have everyone do me a favor and don't worry about me with my cane. I'm not even old."
Meowstic walks past Mawile and made it to the rest of the contestants, but Mawile went back and went by Meowstic's side, just in case he needed assistance.
Meowstic noticed that and just groaned, letting her do whatever.
The next Pokemon came out of the boat.
Her entire body is completely hidden under a rag. Her small eyes can be seen at the base while at the hem of her rag her lower body also appears to be seen. The rag itself resembles that of a Pikachu. The cloth is yellow with black-tipped ears, and the face seems to be drawn in crayon. She also has a small wooden stick, resembling the lightning bolt tail of the Pikachu.
She is a Mimikyu, and she walks down to the two hosts.
Before Cog was going to speak, Burst interrupted him. "Why hello there Mimikyu. It's nice to have you here."
Mimikyu giggled. "Thank you."
Burst noticed Cog was giving him a look, but he ignored. "Mimikyu, if you would make your way to the end the docks, that would be greatly appreciated."
Mimikyu smiled under her ragged and did just that.
"Not cool Burst, not cool." Cog said.
"Hey, I can't let you take everyone now. That wouldn't be fair." Burst replied.
Mimikyu tried to assert herself to the other girls, but some moved away from her like Galvantula and Lurantis. She is a Mimikyu after all.
Mimikyu felt a little saddened by this, so she decided to sit by herself and sighed sadly.
The next Pokemon came to the docks, she resembles that of a bipedal fox, with dark red fur that resembles a robe, orange markings on her knees that resembles flames, and a white tuft of fur on her torso. She has three tufts of orange fur coming out of her ears, fur on her arms resembling sleeves, and a large stick that serves as a wand.
She is a Delphox, and she walked her way to the two hosts.
"Well, if it isn't the magnificent Delphox! The application said you were a Magician yes?" Burst asked.
Delphox smiled and twirled her stick, out came a black hat that just appeared on her hands out of nowhere. "Why yes I am. Behold, my first trick of the show!" Delphox shouted.
Delphox twirled her stick around the hat a little bit, then she reached in the hat and pulled out Cog.
Burst and some of the other contestants were shocked and amazed at the sight. But some weren't so amazed, like Meowstic, who just rolled his eyes.
"What the hell?! Help!" Cog shouted.
Delphox let Cog go and Burst clapped for her. "Well, that was a good magic trick. Now can you please make you're way to the rest of the contestants? I'm sure they'll love to see more tricks from you."
She nodded and went along to the end of the docks.
Burst noticed Cog gave him another look. "What? I liked the show" Burst admitted.
"I most certainly didn't." Cog replied.
"I'm sure you'll get over it. It's not like she set you on fire or anything." Burst remarked.
Delphox went to the other contestants and bowed. "Hello everyone, I am the great Delphox the Magician! Ready to give this show my magic!"
"Hmph, please. Magic does not exist, the only thing that is proven to be true is Science!" Malamar shouted.
"At least someone here is sane." Meowstic muttered.
Delphox heard Meowstic though. "You don't believe in magic either?"
"Me? No, I would never think magic doesn't exist. Except oh wait, I do." Meowstic replied. "It's all just cheap parlor tricks. Every trick you pull from the book or every act you make can all be explained. Magic is fake." Meowstic replied.
Delphox grinned and showed Meowstic a hand of cards. "Pick a card, any card."
Meowstic gave Delphox a look. "You're kidding right? This is literally the oldest trick in the book."
"Just pick one, I insist." Delphox said.
Meowstic rolled his eyes and picked a card anyways.
"Now, look at your card and don't tell me what it is." Delphox said.
Meowstic looked at his card and it was a Joker card.
"You remember your card?" Delphox asked.
"Of course I do, not like I have short term memory loss." Meowstic replied.
Delphox twirled her stick around the card and it burst into flames and disappeared.
Meowstic was a little surprised at this, but then out of nowhere, Malamar coughed something up and it was a Joker card.
"And is that your card?" Delphox asked.
"Maybe." Meowstic admitted.
Delphox took a bow and most of the contestants clapped.
Malamar cleared his throat. "I would prefer that you didn't risk my safety with your magic tricks."
"Or the obvious lack of magic tricks." Meowstic muttered to himself.
The next Pokemon didn't travel by boat, but crashed to the docks from flying.
She is a large flying creature that bears similarities to a dinosaur. Her featherless, scaly head is red with a green stripe running along the top. Her eyes are white with black pupils and no irises. Her body is covered with frayed-looking, yellowish feathers with blue feathers designed for flight on its arms and legs enabling all four of its limbs to act as wings. Her tail is completely red and featherless except for a fan of blue feathers at the end.
She is an Archeops, and she slowly got back up on her feet.
"You okay there Archeops?" Burst asked in concern.
"Yeah, I'll be fine. I'm used to it at this point." Archeops replied, shaking her head a little.
"Used to it?" Cog muttered.
"Well, if you're fine, then please make your way to the end of the docks with the other contestants. If you feel well." Burst said.
Archeops nodded and headed her way to the end of the docks.
"You okay there? You may be part Rock, but that sure was a hard landing." Diggersby said, not being able to resist chuckling from his own joke.
"Yeah, I'll be good. Just gotta stretch my wings is all." Archeops replied, doing just that.
"Well can you do me a favor and make sure none of the pain you're attracting away from me? I already felt enough pain for today." Blaziken remarked, brushing off some of the dust from before.
"Heh heh, I'll try my best." Archeops responded.
Archeops noticed Luxray was sitting by himself. She went over to the lion. "Hey there, you okay?"
Luxray saw Archeops and growled. "Go away."
"Why what's wrong?" Archeops asked in concern.
She went closer and Luxray widened his eyes. "I said get away!"
Luxray used Discharge and Archeops was forced to take in all the pain.
"Archeops!" Goodra shouted in fear.
Archeops fell down and Goodra, Lurantis, and Corsola came to help her up.
Goodra glared at Luxray. "How could you do that?! She was only trying to help!"
Luxray growled. "I obviously didn't need help. Now why don't you take your little friend there and get far away from me."
Goodra kept on glaring at Luxray, until she and the others helped Archeops and helped her go to their spot on the docks.
The next Pokemon came out of the boat. She has a black body, with a head of a skull that serves as part of her body. A black, flame-like mark is on her skull, and she carries a long bone.
She is a Marowak, an Alolan Marowak, as she makes her way to the two hosts.
"Why hello, might Marowak! It is an honor to have you here." Burst greeted.
Marowak bowed. "It is an honor as well. I must thank you for bringing me here."
"Why of course, please go to the end of the docks with the rest." Burst requested.
Marowak nodded and did just that.
"Now I like her. I hope she lasts long." Burst whispered to Cog, who he nodded in agreement.
Marowak went to the rest and saw the hurt Archeops.
"What happened to you?" Marowak asked.
"I'm fine, just a little bruised up is all." Archeops replied, still wincing a little.
"You can thank him for that." Goodra said coldly, pointing to the lone Luxray.
Marowak looked at the lion and went to him.
Luxray noticed an Alolan-Marowak come to him and he growled. "Back off."
"I would like for you to explain yourself. Why did you harm the Archeops?" Marowak asked in a serious tone.
"She got too close, so I zapped her. Now leave me alone." Luxray said in an annoyed tone.
Marowak took a step closer. "Apologize."
Luxray growled. "I said leave me alone!"
Luxray used Discharge on the Marowak, but it did nothing.
Marowak grabbed Luxray and threw him back a few feet.
Luxray widened his eyes a little.
"Lightning rod is a good ability to have, especially for pesky electric types like yourself." Marowak said proudly.
Luxray just growled in response, he knows he's going to have a rough time with her.
A little while after that, the next Pokemon arrived.
He is a blue, bipedal poison dart frog, with a curved upward spike coming from his head, yellow eyes, a bulbous red vocal sac under his mouth, three fingers on each hand and a red large red claw on the back of each hand.
He is a Toxicroak, and he went to the two hosts.
"Ah, hello there Toxicroak. It's good to have you here." Burst greeted.
"Thanks, but I'm not alone. My friend is coming here as well." Toxicroak said.
"Really? Well where is he?" Burst asked.
"He didn't want to go by boat. He prefers the air." Toxicroak replies, as he looks up. "And here he comes now."
Just as Toxicroak said that, another Pokemon flew to the docks.
He is a dark-blue avian Pokemon, with feathers matched to look like he was wearing a fancy attire. He has a large feather crest, resembling a fedora. He has a large white feather crest below his beak, resembling a beard. He had red feathers inside his blue wings, and red feathers at the end of his tail.
He is a Honchkrow, and he grinned to the two hosts. "Hello there, old sports. Names Honchkrow, and may I say it's quite the pleasure to be here."
"Why thank you Honchkrow. Now, can you two please go to the end of the docks with the other contestants?" Burst asked.
Honchkrow nodded and led Toxicroak to the end of the docks.
Honchkrow bowed to all the contestants. "Hello, my name is Honchkrow, and this old sport is Toxicroak. It's a mighty pleasure to be here."
"See turkey? It's not that hard to say hello." Diggersby remarked.
"Say one more word to me, and I'm burning you alive." Blaziken replied.
Some of the other contestants greeted the two, while some didn't and kept to themselves.
Honchkrow and Toxicroak went to their own area of the docks.
While they were there, Toxicroak notices Honchkrow had his wing up in the air, as if to grab something.
"Is it there yet?" Toxicroak asked.
"No old sport, it's still out of my reach. But it's close, I can practically feel it in the tip of my wing." Honchkrow replied, before he pulled his wing down and tipped his fedora.
The next Pokemon arrived to the docks.
She is a starfish-like Pokemon, that has a purple stalk-like body and ten, blue, drooping tentacles, resembling hair. She has spines on all of her tentacles while there is one slightly bigger yellow spine on top of her head.
She is a Mareanie, and she walked her way to the two hosts.
"Ah, Mareanie, welcome to the show!" Burst greeted.
Mareanie rolled her eyes. "Yeah, whatever.
"Something wrong Mareanie?" Cog asked.
"Don't mind me, I'm just not the trusting type. Especially with hosts like you." Mareanie replied, referring to Burst.
"Mareanie, I assure you, I'm not that type of host. I'm completely different than the others. You have my word." Burst assured.
Mareanie glared at Burst. "I'll listen with your actions, not your words."
With that, Mareanie walked past to the other contestants.
"You okay Burst?" Cog asked in concern.
"I'm fine Cog, really. She'll know how great of a host I can be. I'll prove to her I'm the best host she'll ever get." Burst replied proudly.
Mareanie isolated herself on an area of the docks, not wanting to associate herself with anyone she didn't trust.
The next Pokemon arrived to the docks.
He looks like a four-legged Pokemon in his pupal stage. There are bone structures covering his body, leaving an opening in the front where his yellow eyes are at, and the back. He also has four grey stubby legs.
He is a Shelgon, and he slowly made his way to the two hosts.
"Hello there Shelgon, how are you doing today?" Burst asked.
"I'm feeling ecstatic! I can't wait to start competing on the show!" Burst shouted happily.
"I like your spirit, go over there with the rest of the contestants, we're getting close with bringing in all the contestants here." Burst said.
Shelgon nodded and slowly went to the other contestants.
"Now why can't people be more like him?" Burst asked Cog.
"The world may never know." Cog replied.
Shelgon noticed Honchkrow and went to him.
"Excuse me, but may I ask you a question?" Shelgon asked.
Honchkrow looked at Shelgon and smiled. "Well of course old sport, ask away."
"How does it feel, to fly?" Shelgon asked.
Honchkrow and Toxicroak looked at each other, before Honchkrow looked back at Shelgon. "It's a wonderful thing I say, when you can see everyone below you. The feeling of having all the control in the world.
Shelgon smiled under his shell. "That sounds amazing. One of these days I'll evolve and will be able to feel that feeling. I feel determined to achieve my dream of flying, no matter what it takes."
Honchkrow chuckled and patted Shelgon. "I like your determination old sport, reminds me of myself."
"More like he is yourself, just in a different body." Toxicroak commented.
"Oh, being a smart aleck are we?" Honchkrow asked Toxicroak.
"Just preaching the truth." Toxicroak replied.
Meanwhile, Meowstic was looking at some of the contestants.
He saw Blaziken giving strategy advice to Lopunny, but Diggersby said something to piss him off again and went after the mud rabbit.
He saw Goodra, Galvantula, Lurantis, Corsola, and Archeops talking together. Goodra though was glaring at Luxray while Luxray was too busy glaring at Marowak.
Meowstic just kept looking at everyone, until he saw Doublade, with the others, but he wasn't like the others, he was...different. His eyes, they were calm, different from who he appears to be. It was like-
"You okay?" Mawile asked Meowstic, interrupting his train of thought.
"Yeah, just dandy." Meowstic replied.
"You look like you were in a trance, what were you looking at?" Mawile asked.
Meowstic looked at Doublade again, before he looked away. "Nothing, I was looking at nothing."
Burst had someone call him on the walkie talkie. "Yes?... They're here already?... Well, send them one at a time."
"What was that?" Cog asked.
"They're here." Burst simply replied.
Cog only nodded at that.
Burst turned to the contestants and cleared his throat? "Attention everyone, while looking for contestants on this show, I have three that was set out as a favor from someone. So when they come, please do not be alarmed."
"I'm sure it can't be that bad. What's the worse that can happen?" Doublade asked.
Moments after Doublade asked that, a Pokemon came to the docks from a prison boat.
He is a bipedal, insectoid Pokémon with a red, metallic exoskeleton. He has gray, retractable forewings and hind wings with simple, curved venation. His head is kite-shaped with three blunt horns extending above his forehead, and dark yellow eyes.. He has a large abdomen with three black, pointed stripes below the waist. He also has pincers for claws.
He is a Scizor, but this one was different. He had slash marks all over his body, and one of his horns were broken off. His wings also had small tears on them.
A lot of Pokemon were shaking, they knew this certain Scizor.
Doublade sighed. "This is my own doing."
"Y….Y….Y…...Y… You're." Lurantis started, stuttering in fear.
"I believe what you are trying to say is that I'm Krueger. Why yes, I am indeed Kreuger." Krueger finished.
"Krueger, as in the serial killer Krueger?!" Corsola asked.
"Why is there a serial killer in this show?!" Malamar shouted.
That got Shedinja's attention when Malamar said serial killer.
Cog looked at Burst, and he nervously chuckled.
"To be fair, I didn't see that in the application." Burst defended.
"Of course that wasn't in the application! Who would ever put in 'Hi, my name is Cog, and I'm a serial killer!'" Cog shouted in rage.
Krueger started slowly walking his way to the other competitors, whistling a dark tune.
A lot of the Pokemon were shaking in fear, especially Galvantula and Lurantis.
Krueger met up with the other contestants and inspected them. "So this is my competition? You've got to be kidding me."
"Don't get too cocky now Icarus, you might burn your wings off if you fly to high." Meowstic remarked.
Krueger walked up to Meowstic. "Well, you're either brave, or stupid to say something like that to me. Which one are you?"
"Well, I don't know about me, but I do know that if you try anything on me, you probably would be sent right back to prison. You know, since you're a serial killer and all. Am I wrong?" Meowstic asked.
Krueger glared at Meowstic, before he chuckled. "Yeah, you're right. You win for now."
Krueger left Meowstic to himself as he went to his own area of the docks, with the Pokemon near him taking a few steps back.
"How are you not terrified of him?" Mawile asked.
Meowstic chuckled. "Yeah, about that, I never said I wasn't."
The next Pokemon didn't travel by boat, but swam at high speeds to the docks.
He is a dark-blue torpedo shaped shark. He has a large mouth with big triangular teeth. He has deep red glaring eyes with a yellow star on his rear. He also has a yellow star on his forehead.
He is a Sharpedo, and he was looking at everyone with his red glaring eyes.
Some got a little scared by this, but Burst and Cog went to the shark.
"Hello there, your name is Varx right?" Burst asked.
"Yeah, that's me." Varx replied, as he looked around the island. "Is this where the competition takes place?"
"Indeed it is, you cannot believe the trouble I went through to find this island." Burst replied.
"Looks a lot like my island back where I came from." Varx commented.
"Well, feel yourself at home then. Now please make your way to the end of the docks with the other contestants." Burst requested.
Varx nodded and hopped on the docks to do just that.
Varx met up with the rest and they looked at him.
"Um, hi." Mawile greeted, trying to start a conversation with the Sharpedo.
"Hey." Varx simply said, before he just layed down on the docks and started staring at the ocean, almost as if he was in a trance.
The rest saw this, so they didn't want to bother him. Mawile didn't either, she didn't want to be rude.
Krueger watched the Sharpedo and saw his docile mood, wondering how the hell was this guy feared back in Hanakala Island?
The last one of the three requested was on a boat and jumped to the docks, making the docks itself shake a little.
He is a bipedal mammalian Pokemon, with a armor-like shell, with said shell having four spines coming out of them. His arms and tail is also covered in armor-like platings. The armor is gabe, with green and red bands on the arms and shell itself. His white fur on his face resembles that of a beard.
He is a Chesnaught, and he had a brown hat on, grinning as he went to the two hosts.
"Ah, well if it isn't Riktar the hunter! Pleasure to have you hear." Burst greeted.
Riktar gave a hearty laugh. "When I said I was going to be placed in a show, I didn't know it was something like this! Now everyone will get to see Riktar, the strongest hunter in the world!"
"Strongest huh? That's pretty prideful don't you think?" Cog asked.
Riktar smiled at Cog. "It's that I think, I know so. For no one is stronger than Riktar the hunter!"
"Well, definitely like your enthusiasm. Head on your way to the end of the docks. The rest of the contestants are waiting there." Burst said.
Riktar laughed and ran his way to the rest of the contestants. He tipped his hat to them. "Hello everyone! My name is Riktar the Hunter! You'll get the chance now to see a true hunter at his best!"
"Well, hello there brother. Good to have you here." Darmanitan greeted, reaching his hand out for Riktar to shake.
Riktar smiled and shook Darmanitan's hand, but Darmanitan winced and drew back a few moments later.
"Ow! Wow, strong grip." Darmanitan said, chuckling a little.
"So we have a serial killer AND a hunter in the competition? Why do I have the feeling we're all going to be hunted down?" Malamar asked.
"You're not the only one, it's probably the host doing this on purpose, being the sadist he is." Mareanie replied.
Blaziken was thinking to himself. He may need t take care of this Riktar quickly, if he's as strong as he says he is.
Riktar welcomed himself around until he saw Lopunny. He walked up to her. "Hello there, Riktar the hunter, pleasure to meet you."
Riktar reached his hand out for Lopunny to shake. Lopunny smiled and was about to shake it, until Blaziken got between them. "Don't shake her hand, I don't want you crushing her."
Riktar sheepishly chuckled. "I assure you, I was going to be careful about it."
"Well, I don't want you associating with her, at all." Blaziken sternly said, much to Lopunny's discern.
Riktar arched his brow at Blaziken. "Why the hostility? You don't even know we're on the same team. Surely you can lighten up."
"Surely I can't, now go." Blaziken ordered.
Riktar gave Blaziken a look, before he went away.
Lopunny sighed sadly, not again.
With all the requested contestants done, it was time for the regular contestants to appear. But the next one was anything but ordinary.
The next contestant didn't travel by boat, but flew and landed on the docks, almost breaking the docks themselves.
It is a bipedal automaton, looking like a suit of armor. It is teal colored with yellow swirls on its shoulders and hands. It has a small head compared to its body, and has a crack across the chest of the armor, which is patched diagonally with a brown object resembling a belt. It has a crystal-like formation on each shoulder, and there are large bangles on its wrists and ankles. It has a Roman armor-like "skirt" and flat feet beneath.
It is a Golurk, and it looked down at the two hosts.
Golurk was gigantic, making a lot of the other Pokemon intimidated by it's sheer size.
"I feel like the odds of winning has majorly decreased." Malamar muttered to himself.
"Well, can your magic stop that?" Meowstic asked Delphox, who just looked at Golurk with a little worry.
Cog was shaking, while Burst stepped up. "Hello there Golurk, welcome to the show."
Golurk looked happy and made a weird deep robotic noise.
"See Cog, he's friendly." Burst commented. "Golurk, do me a favor and head to the end of the docks. But be careful, we don't want the whole docks to collapse."
Golurk nodded and made the noise again, slowly walking to the end of the docks.
"Are you starting to realize what kind of people we have in our cast?" Cog asked.
"Yes, yes I am, and I'm not regretting it one bit." Burst replied.
Golurk met up with the rest of the contestants.
"Now that, is the type of guy that can do a cannonball." Diggersby joked.
Golurk saw Galvantula and started lowering its hand to her.
Galvantula screamed out of panic and a Thunder was shot at Golurk.
Thankfully, Golurk is part Ground so that didn't affect it. Golurk went to Galvantula and softly petted her, calming her down.
"Well would you look at that, it's friendly." Honchkrow commented.
Golurk looks at everyone and sees a lone Mimikyu by herself.
Mimikyu hasn't said anything since she got on the island. Reason for that is because she's used to that kind of treatment of being alone.
But Golurk went to her and bent its knee to lower himself to see her more.
"Oh, hello." Mimikyu greeted.
Golurk looks happy and made the deep noise again, waving to Mimikyu.
"Do you want to be my friend?" Mimikyu asked.
Golurk nodded and very softly patted Mimikyu.
Mimikyu smiled under her rag and giggled.
The next Pokemon that made it to the docks is quite the sight to see. She has a hollow torso that resembles a kimono. She wears a red band around its waist. Her arms are connected to the sides of her head, and flare at the wrists. The flared portion has dappled, light blue coloration. Her head is shaped similar to a sideways water droplet, and is topped with two ice crystals that resemble horns. Her head has several holes on it, resembling a mask. Through two of these holes, crystal blue eyes with yellow sclera can be seen.
She is a Froslass, and she was quite a beautiful one at that. A lot of male Pokemon were amazed at the sight, before they eventually came back to reality.
She winked at the other contestants as she made it to the two hosts.
"Well, if it isn't the beauty Froslass herself. How are you doing?" Burst asked.
Froslass chuckled. "As great as ever. I can already tell I'll have a great time here, seeing as I'll get all the attention."
"Well, go get some more by going to the end of the docks over there please." Burst insisted.
Froslass smiled and went her way to the end of the docks.
"So," Cog started. "You noticed too?"
"How could I not?" Burst simply replied.
Froslass met up with the rest of the contestants. "Hello everyone, it's so nice to meet you all."
"More of a pleasure to meet you sweetheart." Riktar said, sheepishly grinning.
Froslass just giggled at the compliment.
Honchkrow rolled his eyes and chuckled. "Foolish boys."
Meowstic looked bored though, like he was going to fall for that. Seconds later, he fell to the ground, groaning from the pain of his right leg.
"Meowstic, are you okay?!" Mawile asked.
"No I'm not okay. Who took my cane?" Meowstic asked.
Meowstic saw Sableye with the cane in his hands. "... Sableye. What's in your hands?"
Sableye looked down and saw the cane in his hands. He nervously chuckled. "Oops, sorry."
Meowstic barely went to Sableye and grabbed the cane from his hands. Meowstic then bonked Sableye on the head a couple of times with it. "Bad Sableye, Bad!"
The next Pokemon arrived on the docks. He is a large, bipedal, purple Pokémon with distinct reptilian features. He has large, spiny ears, fur-like tufts on his cheeks, and a short snout filled with pointed teeth. There is a long, venomous horn on his forehead and a ridge of spines down his back. Gray plates cover his chest and belly, and there is a gray rounded spine on each elbow. He also has a long, powerful tail.
He is a Nidoking, and he walked his way to the two hosts.
"And here we have Nidoking, welcome to the show!" Burst greeted.
"Hey there, thanks for having me here." Nidoking replied.
"No problem, now please make your way to the end of the docks. We're almost done with the introductions." Burst said.
Nidoking nodded and headed his way to the end of the docks.
"And then we have six. Look how quickly that went." Burst said.
"Yeah, crazy, eventful, and borderline terrifying, but it was quick." Cog agreed.
Nidoking smiled at everyone. "Hello everyone, good to meet you al!"
"Well hello there old sport. Good to have you here." Honchkrow said, tipping his hat to the purple reptilian.
"Well, it's good to have some more muscle in the group!" Riktar shouted happily, as he gave Nidoking a firm handshake.
"Man, with all these giant threats in the competition, I hope I don't piss one of them off." Sableye said to himself, but then-
"Hey! Where's my hat?!" Riktar asked.
Sableye looked down and saw the hat was in his hats. "Oh come on."
WHACK!
The next Pokemon screamed excitedly and flew down fast to the docks.
She is a bipedal, draconian Pokémon that is primarily dark blue in color. She has red on its underbelly from the lower jaw to the middle of the abdomen, including the undersides of her arms. A patch of gold comes to a point below the red on her belly, and a golden star shape adorns the tip of her snout. Garchomp has horn-like appendages that resemble a jet that makes her look like a hammerhead shark. Curved fins resemble her arms and she also has a large dorsal fin and another on its tail that resembles a shark tailfin.
She is a Garchomp, and she excitedly ran to the two hosts.
"Woah there Garchomp. Ease yourself. I can tell you have lots of energy." Burst said, chuckling a little.
"Sorry, but I'm just so pumped! I can't wait for this to start!" Garchomp shouted happily.
Burst chuckled some more. "Well, if you hurry over to the end of the docks with the rest, it'll make things quicker for us to begin."
She happily ran to the rest of the contestants. "Hey everyone!"
"Well, someone drank too much coffee this morning." Diggersby joked.
Diggersby reached his hand for Garchomp to shake and she shook it vigorously.
"...Yep, definitely too much coffee." Diggersby confirmed.
"Man, there's so many people here. This is going to be exciting!" Garchomp shouted happily.
Shedinja, although appearing to be unfazed, was groaning internally by the hyperactive
Dragon.
The next Pokemon arrived to the docks. He a white, bipedal Pokémon. Its lower body consists of rounded hips with strong legs. He had sharp, red horns sticking out of ihi chest and back. His arms are shaped like tonfas, with extendable blades in his elbows. His head resembles a gladiator's helmet with a white face and a teal head crest. He also has spikes on the sides of its face.
He is a Gallade, but he was also wearing the armor of a knight. His armor was grey colored and his helmet made it so no one can see who he's looking at. Even his arm blades were covered in armor.
All the other contestants saw him.
"What's with that tin can armor?" Luxray asked.
"I don't mind it really. He seems pretty cool." Mawile commented.
"Ow!" Corsola shouted in pain.
Mareanie had taken a bite out of Corsola's corals.
"Mearnie! You can't just do that!" Goodra shouted.
"What? I was hungry." Mareanie said, chewing up the corals in her mouth.
The armored Gallade calmly walked his way to the two hosts.
"Greetings Gallade. A pleasure to have you here." Burst greeted.
Gallade bowed to them. "I must thank you for bringing me here. Surely this will help test my will and strength."
"Well, it'll definitely do that. Head on to the end of the docks, if you can." Burst requested.
Gallade followed the request and went to the end of the dock.
He met up with the rest of the contestants. "Greetings everyone, it is a pleasure to see you all."
"So, what's with the armor?" Archeops asked.
"Well, as you can see, I am a knight. A knight, for which my job is to live and serve under the royal family." Gallade replied.
"Who's this royal family?" Luxray asked, growing skeptical of this.
"That, is classified." Gallade simply replied.
Luxray rolled his eyes. "Yeah, sure it is."
Gallade ignored that remark, as he looked around to make sure he wasn't intruding anyone and went to his own spot in the docks.
Froslass saw the metal knight and grinned, she wanted to introduce herself to him.
She went over to Gallade and cleared her throat. "Why hello there."
Gallade didn't even look at Froslass. "Hello."
Froslass arched her brow at him, weird. "Well, it's a pleasure to meet you. I hope we get to be on the same team."
"Well, that will be decided on the hosts, so I wish you luck on that." Gallade replied.
Froslass saw he wasn't even looking at her. She would be fine with being getting some reaction out of her charm, whether it would be good or bad. But he's not giving her any. She groaned and went back to her spot on the docks.
Gallade noticed that part. "...Was it something I said?"
The next Pokemon arrived to the docks.
He is a fairly large spider-like Pokémon with a bubble of water surrounding his head. His six legs are yellow-green for two-thirds of their length, and the final portions are dark blue. Each leg has an opaque bubble enveloping each joint. His abdomen is dark blue with brown streaks that connect to the "collar" that flares out with the shape of the bubble that encloses its head, which is also dark blue. Below its head, there is a mouth accompanied by hanging mandibles.
He is an Araquanid, and he calmly walked to the docks, but every time he took a step, it was like it was heavy, for the docks would ever so often shake just a little bit.
He met up to the two hosts and smiled. "Hello."
"Why hello there Araquanid. How are you feeling?" Burst asked.
"I'm feeling quite well, thank you for asking." Araquanid replied. He looked over to the rest of the contestants. "I take it I have to be over there?"
"Yep, if you would please." Burst requested.
Araquanid nodded and went over to the end of the docks.
"Um, Burst, are you having a strange feeling around him? The docks shake a little when he walks." Cog commented.
"Hmm, no, I don't see anything wrong. Looks normal to me." Burst replied.
Araquanid made it to the rest and smiled. "Hello."
Riktar smiled and went over to the water spider. "Hello there fella! Names Riktar, Riktar the unger! Put her there!"
Riktar reached out his hand for Araquanid to shake. Araquanid took the hand to shake it, but Riktar had to take it back and shook his hand.
Riktar chuckled. "Well, that's quite a grip you got there."
"Hehe, sorry about that. I'm a little too strong for my own good." Araquanid apologized.
Riktar smiled. "You have nothing to be sorry for. Besides, I like a challenge of my amazing strength."
"Ow!" Corsola shouted in pain. Mareanie bit off her corals again.
"Mareanie! Stop that!" Goodra shouted.
"It's not my fault her corals taste good!" Mareanie argued.
Araquanid saw this and went to Mareanie. "Now that's not very nice. Now is it?"
Mareanie shrugged. "They grow back, it's not a big deal."
"Oh but it is, how would you feel if I just took a bite out of one of your tentacles? That wouldn't feel so good now would it?"
Mareanie winced at the thought. "No, it wouldn't."
"Then I would prefer if you didn't hurt Corsola anymore please." Araquanid requested.
Mareanie grumbled. "Whatever."
Corsola smiled at Araquanid. "Thank you."
Araquanid smiled back. "Of course. Glad to be of help."
The next Pokemon arrived to the docks.
She is a bee-like Pokémon with yellow and black striped abdomen resembling an elegant ballroom gown. Underneath the expansive abdomen are honeycomb-like cells that serve as a nest. She has black, skinny arms with two orange claws and flies with a pair of relatively small wings on her back. Her yellow upper body is a nearly perfect sphere and its waist is black and slender, with her appearing to be wearing a dress. She has red eyes, with oversized, yellow, protruding mandibles, and a red gem on its forehead. The top portion of its head is similar to a headpiece with yellow and black horn-like projections.
She is a Vespiquen, and she was smoking with a cigarette in a very long cigarette holder. She went to the two hosts and took a long drag. "I'm here."
"Indeed you are Vespiquen, welcome to the show!" Burst greeted.
Vespiquen looked behind her and saw the other contestants. "Izzz that my competition?"
"Indeed it is." Burst replied.
Vespiquen groaned and took another drag. "Lovely, I wazzzz hoping for a challenge. Not thozzze Pokemon over there. Oh well."
She flew her way to the end of the docks.
Mawile smiled. "Hel-"
"Do not azzzzociate with me." Vespiquen interrupted, going to her own area of the docks.
"Damn, if only it was that easy for me." Meowstic said.
Honchkrow saw Vespiquen and smiled. "Toxicroak, I'll be right back."
"Oh boy, here we go again." Toxicroak groaned.
But Honchkrow ignored Toxicroak and walked to Vespiquen. He tipped his hat to her. "Pleasure to meet you darling."
Vespiquen groaned. "Don't call me darling again. That izzz, if you want to keep your tongue."
"I mean no harm though. I assure you I come in peace." Honchkrow calmly said.
Vespiquen took a drag and blew it in front of Honchkrow's face. "Then do me a favor and leave in peazzze."
Honchkrow decided to take the safe route and flew back to Toxicroak. "Went horribly didn't it.?" Toxicroak simply asked.
"I wouldn't say horribly. More like starting somewhere old sport." Honchkrow replied.
Toxicroak gave Honchkrow a look. "Honchkrow, I don't want a repeat of what happened last time. Promise you me you won't try anything else okay?"
Honchkrow sighed. "Alright alright, I won't."
"Good, just looking out for you." Toxicroak said.
"I know you are old sport, I know you are." Honchkrow said, while he had his wing tips crossed behind his back.
The next Pokemon arrived on the docks.
He is a red, penguin-like Pokémon with a white, hollow tail. His face and chest are covered in white feathers with two, three-pointed crests above his eyes. Black markings surround his circular eyes, and he has a light yellow beak and feet. There is a single white spot on his stomach. Hiss feet have two digits each.
He is a Delibird, and he happily flew to the two hosts.
"Well if it isn't Delibird, welcome to the show!" Burst greeted.
"Hello Burst and Cog, I have something for you two." Delibird happily said.
"Really? What's that?" Cog asked.
Delibird reached under his bag and gave the two platinum statues of themselves.
Burst shrieked in joy. "Look at that! A minimum statue of me! It's perfect!"
"It looks so good. Thank you Delibird." Cog said.
"You two deserve it for all your hard work with the show." Delibird said, before he flew to the other contestants. "Hello everyone, I have presents for some of you!"
"Presents?!" Garchomp asked, as she ran up to the snow bird.
Delibird reached over in his bag and gave Garchomp a hand glide.
"Wow!" Garchomp shouted, before she took the hand glide "Thanks man!"
Delibi gave some others presents as well. Diggersby another carrot, Delphox a book of magic, signed by Houdini the Zoroark, Shelgon a parachute, Archeops a helmet, and Lurantis a Teddiursa bear."
With some of the contestants happy with their presents, Meowstic approached Delibird. "Say bird, you have something for me?"
"I do actually, but not yet." Delibird replied.
"What do you mean not yet?" Meowstic asked.
"It's not your time yet Meowstic." Delibird replied.
Meowstic just groaned and went back to his area of the docks, folding his arms.
Burst looked at everyone. ""Only one more to go. One more till we can start this whole thing." Burst said.
"I can't wait. I'm filled with anticipation!" Cg shouted.
Everyone paid attention to the docks when they heard laughter, but the laugh was….. Sinister.
The Pokemon that arrived at the docks is a dark gray, doll-like Pokémon that has three short spikes on its head and a long zigzagging ribbon trailing off the back of his head. A zipper acts as his mouth, and he has purplish-pink eyes with slit pupils. His long, flat arms have three-fingered hands, while his legs are short and stubby. He also has a yellow, brush-like tail.
He is a Banette, and he had a giant smile. He laughed some more. "Hello hello hello hello hello! My name is Banette! Andad to be on your show! You can't imagine how much joy it brings to my heart! Except maybe looking at my face." He laughs some more.
"Now this guy went to cookoo land." Diggersby remarked.
Bantte ran to the two hosts and reached his hand out. "Pleased meet you two!"
"Well, I like your enthusiasm." Bursat said, as he went to shake Banette's hand.
But when Burst did so, he got shocked Banette's joy buzzer.
Banette laughed. "Wow, that looked very, shocking."
"Hey! Don't steal my jokes!" Diggersby shouted.
Banette ran to the other contestants while Burst groaned. "I like him."
"He just shocked you! With more electricity than the buzzer needed to have." Cog said.
"Maybe, but he is comical, something that would definitely help with the show. I'm sure it can't be that bad." Burst assured.
Banette made it to the contestants and took a deep breath. "Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello!" Banette gasped for air. "Phew! That takes a lot out of you."
"Now you have got to be insane." Meowstic remarked.
Banette noticed Meowstic and grinned. He walked up to Meowstic face to face. "Now you're one to talk. I can see you seen some shit as well. Aren't I right?"
Meowstic widened his eyes a little, but he backed up a bit. "You don't know a thing about me."
"Your mouth says one thing, but your eyes says another. They seen some shit, or better yet, experienced some shit. You can't hide that from me. It'll be so fun being on this show with you, I can already tell." Banette said, cackling a bit.
All three Meowstic, Doublade, and Scizor saw the same thing in Banette, and they all knew it wasn't good. Not one
"34...35…..36. We have them all!" Burst shouted.
"About time!" Cog shouted back.
Burst and Cog went up to the 36 contestants and cleared his throat. "Everyone, look to your left, and look to your right."
Everyone did just that.
"Only one of you will win the hundred million Pokedollars, while the rest will be kicked off the island. But don't let that stop you, instead, let that make you more determined than ever. Make sure that you're the one that makes it to the top!" Burst shouted.
A lot of Pokemon cheered at that, while some just kept to themselves.
"Now, if you would follow me and Cog, we'll give you a tour of the island." Burst said, as he and Cog started heading towards the island.
Eventually, all 36 contestants started following Burst and Cog to the island, waiting to start the competition of a lifetime.
