Sinjoh Town was crowded. Not crowded, but CROWDED.

"Move, move, move!" a shady, dark haired girl yelled, pushing through the crowd. "Some people are actually trying to get somewhere!"

Two other kids, a nerdy-looking boy and a girl wearing an unusually colorful jacket ran after the girl, panting heavily. "Adela, slow down!" the boy said, panting heavily. "How can you run so far in this weather?"

The girl with the colorful jacket sighed. "It's Adela, what did you expect?" she said, with a slight Spanish accent. She pulled a Pokeball out of her pocket. "Marzo, can you get Adela for me, por favor?" A big, colorful Beautifly appeared and spread its wings. It shivered a bit, unaccustomed to the cold, and flew off in search for Adela.

"Knowing Ate Ade, she'd probably already be at the registration area," the boy said, running after the Butterfly Pokemon. He looked over at the girl. "Rose, are you sure you don't want to compete?"

"No. Just no," Rose said, shaking her head. "You know I can't battle, Alex."

Alex sighed and continued running. It wasn't long until he and Rose were at the registration area. He looked around, searching for his not-related-by-blood (at ALL) twin sister.

The funny thing is, Adela actually does have a twin sister, Bea. But she considers Alex as her twin because they've grown so close to each other the last five years. And the fact that they look almost exactly the same, except for the fact that Alex was taller and nerdier, and... yeah.

And speaking of twins...

"Oi, Ade-" Alex started to say when a dark haired girl turned to them. A strange voice rang in his head, and he realized who the girl really was. "Bea!"

Rose ran up to the girl and tackled her to the ground. "Bea! Long time, no see!"

Nice to see you too, a voice rang out in Rose's head.

Oh, and another thing before I go on: Bea's mute.

A Gardevoir hovered around the girl, twirling around as if it was dancing. Bea says she missed you guys, the Embrace Pokemon said telepathically.

Adela popped out of nowhere, a habit of her's ever since she was little. "Bea sent me a letter saying that she was competing in the tournament, so I couldn't wait!" she said. "We already registered our Pokemon, but I just can't wait to battle!"

"You went off to register without me?" Alex asked, raising an eyebrow. He paused, then ran off to the registration counter, a pen in his hand.

The three girls exchanged glances. "Don't steal the pen," Rose and Adela said.


Okay, I decided. I'm accepting OCs, but only through PM. Also, the chances of me actually using your OC is pretty slim, unless you enter a non-competitor. The OC form is on my profile.
