Cerulean City Performance

Naruto and Hinata arrived at Cerulean City.

"We made it!" Naruto shouted, "Cerulean City we're here!"

"Yeah," Hinata agreed.

"Man, I wander what should we do now that we're here. I mean other than visit the Pokemon Center," Naruto responded.

"Um Naruto, maybe we should find out when is the Pokemon Contest is being held," Hinata responded.

"Yeah, that's right, your first contest is here," Naruto responded, "I can't wait to see how all your hard work finally pays off."

"You mean…you're going to watch it?" Hinata asked.

"Of course, if you're going to be there when I challenge gyms for badges, I should be there for you when you enter contest for ribbons," Naruto responded, "That's what friends are for right?"

"Yeah, you're right," Hinata responded.

They headed to the Pokemon Contest Hall.

"Excuse me, but I like to register for the pokemon contest," Hinata responded.

"Alright, I just need your contest pass," the woman in charge responded.

"I don't have one," Hinata responded.

"Oh so this is your first contest then," the lady responded, "Don't worry about it, I'll just enter your data in here. You have something we can use to register you?"

"I have a Pokedex," Hinata responded.

"That'll work," the lady responded.

Hinata handed the lady the Pokedex.

The lady put the Pokedex through the slot on the computer.

A picture of Hinata appeared on the computer.

After a few second of typing.

"Here you go," the lady said handing a card, a case, 2 ball like capsule, and an envelope, "This pass will allow you to enter any contest in the Kanto region, and only the Kanto Region. This case will allow you to hold any ribbons you win. And the ball capsule and seals in the envelope is for your pokemon entrance. Just put your pokeball with the pokemon in it into the capsule, place a seal of your choosing into it and when the pokemon comes out a show of either stars bubbles ribbons or anything else will come out with the pokemon. The designs depends on what seal you use."

"Thank you," Hinata responded.

"Now which of your pokemon you want to use in the contest?" the lady asked.

"Um…I like to use Piplup, Eevee, and Taillow," Hinata responded.

"Why does it matter what pokemon she use?" Naruto asked.

"Well…you see, in contest you can register pokemon you plan to use in any rounds. If something happened before the contest to your pokemon where you need to re-register, you can do so as long as its not during the contest," the lady responded, "This way a coordinator can let their pokemon rest during rounds. The most the coordinator can register in any other contest is 6, since that's the most the trainer can carry."

"Oh," Naruto responded.

The lady register Eevee Piplup and Taillow.

"Alright then, the contest is tomorrow," the lady responded, "I wish you luck."

Naruto and Hinata headed to the Pokemon Center.

"So you think you're ready?" Naruto asked.

"I think so, but honestly, I don't expect winning my first contest," Hinata responded, "But if I don't enter I won't get the full experience."

"Yeah I guess that makes sense," Naruto responded.

"Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuuga, your pokemon are fully healed," Nurse Joy announced.

"Let's go pick up our team and start training," Naruto responded.

"Yeah," Hinata responded.

Hinata and Naruto were outside.

Eevee and Ninjask were out of their pokeballs.

"Ninjask lets start it off with whirlwind!" Naruto shouted.

Ninjask fired a strong whirlwind.

"Eevee dodge it with dig!" Hinata shouted.

Eevee dug underground avoiding whirlwind.

Naruto and Ninjask look around.

Suddenly Eevee came out from behind.

"Eevee use Iron Tail!" Hinata shouted.

Eevee summoned Iron Tail as it came at Ninjask.

"Use Agility!" Naruto shouted.

Ninjask avoided Eevee with Agility.

"Keep it up Ninjask!" Naruto shouted.

Ninjask moved swiftly around Eevee getting faster with each move.

"Eevee send sand attack around you!" Hinata shouted.

Eevee jumped around kicking sand around the place.

"Ninjask blow it away with whirlwind!" Naruto shouted.

Ninjask blew a strong whirlwind that stopped the sand.

"Eevee, use tackle!" Hinata shouted.

Eeveen jump at Ninjask.

"Ninjask use Shadow Ball!" Naruto shouted.

Ninjask fired a Shadow Ball at Eevee.

"Send it back with Iron Tail!" Hinata shouted.

Eevee's tail glowed as it hit the Shadow Ball and send it back at Ninjask.

"Agility," Naruto shouted.

Ninjask dodge with agility.

Eevee landed on the ground as Ninjask flew in the air.

There was clapping and Naruto and Hinata turned to see a girl with red hair tied to the side wearing an yellow shirt, blue shorts and white shoes.

"Not bad you two," the girl responded, "I take it either you're here for a contest or a gym battle."

"I'm here for a gym battle, but Hinata is here for a contest," Naruto responded, "My name is Naruto by the way."

"My name is Misty, I'm the gym leader here," Misty responded, "If your name is Naruto and Hinata, then you two must be the ones Brock, the gym leader of Pewter City, told me about."

"Yeah," Naruto responded, "Brock mentioned you before we left."

"What are you doing?" Hinata asked.

"I'm actually taking the day off to help my sisters with something," Misty responded, "If you want to see it, come to the Cerulean Stage."

"Sure," Naruto responded.

Naruto and Hinata headed to what was a stage.

Inside was like an aquarium for water pokemon.

"Wow," Naruto responded.

"Excuse me, where can we find the stadium?" Hinata asked a man.

"Oh, you're here to see the show huh?" the man asked, "Just down the hall first door to your right, you can't miss it."

"Thanks," Hinata responded, "Come on Naruto!"

"Wow," Naruto responded looking through the glass seeing all sorts of water types.

"Naruto," Hinata responded.

Hinata manage to pull Naruto from the glass and they found the main room.

It was a room full of bleachers around a tank and stands.

A heart shape pokemon jumped through the ring fallowed by a pink-brown slug pokemon, and a seel like pokemon with a horn on it's head.

There were three woman on three solid floating circle cement.

One was a woman with pink hair wearing a yellow swimsuit.

2nd one had blue long hair wearing a green swimsuit.

The 3rd one was the tallest with yellow-blond long hair wearing a red-pink swimsuit.

All three were directing each pokemon.

"Wow," Naruto responded as he and Hinata took out their Pokedex.

"Luvdisc: the Rendezvous Pokemon. It lives in warm sears. It is said that a couple finding this Pokemon will be blessed with eternal love," Naruto's Pokedex explained.

"Gastrodon: the Sea Slug Pokemon. It has a pliable body without any bones. If any part of its body is torn off, it grows right back," Hinata's Pokedex explained and switch to the 3rd Pokemon, "Seel the Sea Lion Pokemon. A Pokemon that lives on icebergs. It swims in the sea using the point on its head to breakup ice."

"Luvdisc, Gastrodon, and Seel," Naruto responded.

"Luvdisc use Aqua Jet!" the pink hair girl shouted.

Luvdisc surround its body with water as it swam through the water.

"Gastrodon use Water pulse!" the blue hair girl shouted.

Gastrodon fired Water pulse onto Luvdisc's Aqua Jet giving Aqua Jet more power.

"Now Seel Icy Wind!" the yellow-blond hair girl shouted.

Seel fired a freezing wind at the Aqua Jet, leaving a trail of breeze with the jet.

Luvdisc moved through the rings as the Ice freeze the rings.

"Awesome," Naruto responded.

"You can tell they're performers," Hinata responded.

The three girls return their pokemon to their pokeballs.

"Now for intermission," one of them shouted.

"There you two are," someone said.

Naruto and Hinata turned to see it was Misty.

"Did you enjoy the show?" Misty asked.

"Yeah," Naruto responded.

"I take it they're your sisters?" Hinata asked.

"Yep," Misty responded, "You want to meet them in person?"

"Sure," Hinata responded.

Misty took them back stage where the girls were preparing for the second round.

"Oh Misty, you came," the blond hair girl said.

"Of course, I said I would," Misty responded.

"Who are those two?" the blue hair girl asked.

"This is Naruto Uzumaki. He's here to challenge my gym. And this is Hinata Hyuuga, she's here for the pokemon contest," Misty introduced, "Naruto Hinata these are my sisters. This is Daisy (the blond hair girl), Violet (Blue hair girl), and Lilly (Pink hair girl)."

"So you're a coordinator huh?" Lilly asked, "Not a trainer like that other Hyuuga that battled Misty."

"Other Hyuuga, you mean Neji?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah, he was hear the other day and battled Misty," Violet explained.

"He was pretty good," Lilly explained.

"Neji is my cousin, but I'm more into contest than earning badges," Hinata explained.

"That's good to know," Daisy responded, "Lilly Violet and I support the contest so much that the Cerulean City sometimes asked one of us to host the contest here."

"In fact Daisy is hosting tomorrow's contest," Lily responded.

"We like your show by the way," Naruto responded, "That was amazing how you use your water types?"

"Thanks," Violet responded, "Not many trainers are into performance. Some think it's a waste of a pokemon's skills."

"Not me, I support Hinata with her goal. Just like she does the same for me," Naruto responded, "In fact, we often train together to improve our skills."

"Good to know," Lilly responded.

"By the way Hinata, is this your first contest?" Daisy asked.

"Yeah," Hinata responded, "But I been working hard to prepare for it."

"Then how about you be our guest performer in the second half of the show?" Daisy asked.

"Hey that might actually work," Misty responded.

"What do you mean?" Naruto asked.

"Once in a while when we find a new coordinator, we allow them perform with us in the show," Lily explained.

"That way, they get the idea what it's like to perform their moves in a contest," Violet explained.

"We learn, the more experience you have with practice performance in front of someone or better a group, the less stress out you'll be when you perform for real," Daisy explained.

"Thank you, but I don't have anything to wear," Hinata responded.

"Don't worry about it," Violet responded, "We have a stand above the tank we use for something like this."

"Thank you," Hinata responded.

Naruto and Misty took their seats as Daisy came out to great the crowd.

"Okay audience, we have a quick change of plans," Daisy shouted, "Today we're going to have a rooky coordinator perform what she learn."

The crowd cheered in response.

"You knew about this?" Naruto responded.

"Yeah, I always do things like this," Misty responded.

A box like stand came up with Hinata on it.

Hinata placed Piplup's pokeball in a poke-capsule and placed a bubble like seal on it.

"Piplup come on out!" Hinata shouted throwing the ball.

The Pokeball/Capsule opened as bubbles streamed out and Piplup appeared.

"Pip Piplup," Piplup shouted.

"Piplup dive into the water!" Hinata shouted.

Piplup dived into the tank and swam around.

"Now use bubble!" Hinata shouted.

Piplup fired the water and tank with bubbles.

"Now use Water Pulse!" Hinata shouted.

Piplup fired Water Pulse into the bottom.

The water pulse force the water upwards into the air with Piplup on top and the bubbles in the air.

"Now water sport!" Hinata shouted.

Piplup summoned water sport that fuse with the water sending it toward the crowd in a splash.

The crowd cheered in response.

"Wow, Hinata is really good," Misty responded, "She's like a natural."

"I told you we practiced," Naruto responded.

Naruto meet up with Hinata and the Cerulean Performing Sisters.

"That was great Hinata," Daisy responded.

"Um thanks," Hinata responded.

"So Naruto, when do you want to battle?" Misty asked.

"Actually I think it would be nice to wait until after the contest," Naruto responded, "Hinata is wanting to watch me battle gyms, I should return the favor and watch her enter contest."

"I can understand," Misty responded.

"Hinata, one final advice, don't let the stress of performing get to you," Daisy said, "Just give it your best and don't give up."

"Thanks," Hinata responded.

So Hinata had her first performance and she's ready for her first contest, while Naruto makes time to watch it and prepare for his 2nd Gym Battle.


A/N: So you know, even though I'm not having pokemon from the Unova Region appeared, I decided not to do the same with the new attacks that appeared in the Unova Region Seasons of Pokemon. That includes Flame Charge, Electro Ball, Volt Switch, and any other new attacks.
