"Go Taillow!" Hinata yelled throwing a ball capsule with a star design.
The ball capsule opened and a huge star came out.
Taillow appeared in a flash of light with the stars.
"Go Girafarig!" Haku yelled throwing a ballcapsule with a fireball seal on it.
The ball capsule opened and fames come out.
Out of the flames a small version of a giraffe with what seem like a ball with a face on it came out.
…
"Girafarig," Naruto said taking out his pokedex.
"Girafarig: The Long Neck Pokemon. The head on its tail contains a small brain. It can instinctively fight even while facing backwards."
"This might be a problem," Misty said.
"Hinata will win this," Naruto said.

…
"Get up Taillow!" Hinata ordered.
Taillow started getting up.
"Psybeam!" Haku ordered.
Girafarig fired a psybeam at Taillow.
It hit something and caused an explosion.
However, Taillow came into the air.
"Taillow!" Hinata responded.
Taillow started flying in a circle and dived down right at Girafarig.
Taillow hit Girafarig took a direct hit, causing Haku to loose some points.
…
"What was that?" Naruto asked.
"It seems Tiallow learned Ariel Ace," Misty responded.
"Ariel Ace?" Naruto asked.
"It's a move that can be used by diving at the pokemon, or charging at them," Misty explained, "I'm not surprise Taillow was able to master it so easy the way it flies around."
…
"Great job Taillow!" Hinata cheered.
"Taillow!" Taillow cheered.
"And Taillow learns Aerial Ace right on the spot," Daisy said, "But now we reached the half way mark and Hinata is still behind."
"Not for long!" Hinata responded, "Use Aerial Ace!"
Taillow prepared for another Aerial Ace.
"I was hoping to save this for later, but it looks like I don't have much of a choice to use it," Haku said, "Girafarig, use thunder!"
"What?" Hinata responded.
Girafarig fired a powerful lightning bolt from its body.
Thunder hit Taillow directly.
Hinata lost major points as Taillow hit the ground.
"Taillow!" Hinata responded.
"Now use Psybeam!" Haku ordered.
Girafarig fired a Psybeam and hit Taillow directly.
Taillow hit the ground unconscious.
All three judges that were watching gave Hinata a triple 'X' which meant only one thing…
"Taillow is no longer able to battle. So the Cerulean City Ribbon goes to Haku!" Daisy announced.
Haku called back his girafarig and took a bow.
"Hinata was quite impressive, but in the end Girafarig over powered Taillow with an unexpected Electric attack," Mr. Contesta explained.
"Truly a remarkable performance battle," Sukizo said.
"I can see a good future performance from both coordinators," Nurse Joy said.
Hinata was a little bit upset, but hearing the judges remarks cheered her up.
"You did great Taillow. Return," Hinata responded pulling out the pokeball.
Taillow was returned to it's pokeball.
…
"Hinata lost," Naruto responded.
"Well, it was her first contest. But she did well in the end," Misty said, "You can't always expect a victory on the first try."
"Yeah, I guess," Naruto responded.
…
"Now we watch as Mr. Contesta rewarded Haku with a ribbon," Daisy said.
"Here you go young man. I hope you do just as well as you did today in the future," Mr. Contesta told Haku as he handed him the ribbon.
"Thank you!" Haku said as he took the ribbon.
Haku showed it to the crowd.
Everyone clapped for Haku, including Naruto and Hinata.
"That's it for today's Cerulean City Contest. Until next time I'm allowed to host, this is Daisy, signing off," Daisy told them.
The crowd cheered.
…Pokemon Center…
"Here you go," Nurse Joy told Hinata as she handed her the tray of pokeballs.
"Thank you," Hinata responded.
Hinata turned to Naruto.
"I guess I would have to work harder for the next contest," Hinata said.
"Yeah," Naruto said, "But it only can get better."
"Yeah," Hinata responded, "But now it's my turn to watch your next Gym Battle."
"Yeah!" Naruto agreed, "The Cerulean City Gym Badge will be mine!"
A/N: It wouldn't be right if Hinata gained her first ribbon on her first contest, but I at least had Taillow learn Aerial Ace, which would make sense with all the contest training Hinata had Taillow do.
