(In the Arena)

As Serena came into view she was surrounded by her trusty trio of partners Sylveon, Braixen and Pancham. Serena is wearing red and pink dress with black colored skirt. She has two pink ribbons one on her forehead and one in her dress. Finally she is also wearing the same necklace that Ash had bought for her.

There is silence in the crowd. The stadium has been covered for the duration of the performance. Suddenly one by one the light come on making Serena and her 3 Pokemon visible in the center of the arena. Till now Serena's eyes have been closed but there is calm radiant smile on her face.

Suddenly the music starts and Serena starts tapping her foot along with the beat. Suddenly she opens her azure eyes and says "Let's go."

On hearing the command all 3 Pokemon begin to jump while doing acrobatic towards their assigned positions.

"Braixen use Fire Blast, Sylveon use Swift. Pancham you know what to do." Serena says while dancing elegantly.

The Fire blast and Swift attacks collide in mid air releasing red and golden sparkles on Serena's dance while Pancham uses Stone Edge which upon completion looks like a Volcano.

"Alright then. Braixen and Sylveon go. Pancham come here." Serena says as Braixen & Sylveon both jump onto the stone edge blue pillars.

Braixen hops inside the stone edge volcano while Sylveon jumps into the sky and uses Fairy Wind. As Pancham is in Serena's arms they both start to float in the air due to the Fairy Wind.

"That's incredible. What level of coordination! The combinations complement each other perfectly." Brandon says in amazement.

"Indeed. These Pokemon performances surpass my expectations. I have seen Contests before but these are even better. Much more enjoyable." Scott says while agreeing much to Diantha and Palermo's delight.

"First class combinations. Just my kind of tactics." Tucker says to Ash while looking impressed.

"Of course. She is my girlfriend Tucker." Ash says while beaming.

"You are one lucky kid. Do yourself a favor. Never let her go." Tucker says while giving Ash a wink.

"You bet. For now let us go back to watching the performance shall we." Ash says while giving Tucker a thumbs up.

(Back in the Arena)

Serena and Pancham are floating in mid air with Braixen inside the stone edge and Sylveon in the air with Fairy wind.

"Alright. Braixen use Mystical fire and Sylveon keep using Fairy wind." Serena says as she waltzes in mid air with Pancham.

Soon the audience is treated to a sight of a live Volcano. Everyone's eyes glow in amazement at the glowing spectacle. All the girls are ecstatic at the display while all the boys are drooling at Serena's sight.

As Serena lands on the platform she says "Alright let's wrap it up. Sylveon and Braixen you know what to do." Soon Sylveon and Braixen jump over each and every Stone Edge pillar making it disappear.

"Now Braixen use Fire Blast, Sylveon use Swift and Pancham wrap it up with Dark Pulse." Serena says while dancing to the music's rhythm.

As all 3 attacks collide creating a revolving circular disk. There is a inner circle of fire with a golden star inside it's circumference. Then there is an outer ring of Pancham's dark pulse.

As Serena and all 3 of her Pokemon come together and freeze in their last characteristic pose she shouts "And we are all done." Moments later the revolving circular disk explodes showering red, yellow and black sparkles over the four of them.

The entire stadium goes wild with deafening cheer. In the VIP Box everyone is clapping and cheering as well. Ash is ecstatic and is clapping as hard as his hands permit him to clap.

As Serena and her 3 Pokemon give a bow they get lowered into the stage by the elevator. When the elevator comes up again the announcer comes back while holding a mike.

"So KIP. Did you enjoy that?" the announcer shouts as the crowd erupts in cheer. Suddenly the covering of the stadium is being retracted and sunlight comes back into the arena.

"Now that we have enjoyed that lovely performance by the Kalos Queen it is now time to get some serious adrenaline pumping. So today we have for your eyes alone. Not one but 2 exhibition battles. Are you ready to see who will be fighting in these exciting battles?". The crowd once again goes wild in cheer.

"My my. That was some performance." Scott says with a beaming smile.

"Glad to see you liked what you saw." Palermo says with a smile.

"Indeed. I must say these Performances have a lot of scope ad potential in them. A shame they are only restricted to the Kalos Region for the moment." Scott replies.

"I know. Me and my organization are working very hard to expand them to other regions as well." Palermo replies with a smile.

"Well good to know that. Such art and beauty should not be kept locked away in one region." Scott replies.

"Hey wait a minute I have an idea. That might work to our mutual benefit." Palermo replies.

"What idea do you have?" Scott asks Palermo with a hint of intrigue.

"Diantha told me that each frontier brain runs his own frontier facility. Furthermore each facility specializes in something or the other. Is that true?" Palermo asks Scott.

"Correct. Why do you ask?" Scott replies.

"Well if that is the case. I could have a few of my performers go with you and open a frontier facility with a specialty in Pokemon Performances. This way we can sow the seeds of Pokemon performances through your esteemed battle frontier system in other regions." Palermo replies.

"Interesting idea. What would we call that facility?" Scott says with enthusiasm.

Both Palermo and Scott start thinking about it.

Suddenly Ash speaks up "Why not call it the Battle Theater? Since it is performance which is done on a theater like stage so Battle theater should be perfect."

"That will be perfect young man." Palermo says while giving Ash a beaming smile.

"Indeed I like that name. Has a nice ring to it." Scott says while giving Ash a thumbs up.

"Well we can sort the remaining business details later. For now let us enjoy the occasion shall we?" Palermo says while picking up a glass of champagne.

"Of course. Who am I to refuse such a gracious offer." Scott says while helping himself to a glass himself.

Palermo turns to Ash and mouths "Thank you." while handling him a glass as well.

Ash smiles s he accepts her glass and gives Palermo a thumbs up to which she smiles.

(Back in the Battlefield)

"Alright KIP. Now time to get down to the first battle. First we shall have an 3 on 3 exhibition battle between our very own Champion Diantha and the Battle Pyramid king Brandon." the Announcer says as both trainers take their respective positions.

"Alright. This a 3 on 3 exhibition battle. No substitutions. The battle will be over when either side has lost all 3 Pokemon. Are you both ready." Referee says as both Brandon and Diantha nod.
