Chapter 38: Battling the Cool Beauty!
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokémon or any of the other referenced in this story
Following their adventures in Fortree City our gang now arrives in Lilycove City for Nikki's
next and hopeful final Pokémon Contest. If Nikki can win here she will have the necessary five
ribbons needed to enter the Hoenn Grand Festival. But first our heroes are stopping at a local
Berry Market. Hey Espeon !don't go eating those Oran and Pecha Berries before we even buy
called Kyle ! Don't worry about a thing! said the shop owner. I can tell that your Espeon loved
Berries and she has a Beautiful Coat. Thanks' said Kyle scratching his head. Hey what's thing
asked Nikki? I know what that is! You use that thing to make Pokeblocks said Marina!
Pokeblocks ! What are Pokeblocks asked Madison? Pokeblocks are colorful candy blocks made
for Pokémon and are primarily used to increase a Pokémon's condition in one of five areas: Cool,
Beauty, Cute, Smart, and/or Tough, for Pokémon Contests said Jimmy. The Author must gotten
this off of Bulbapedia said Melanie ( Hey it's a little to breaking the fourth wall ! Well you're the
one writing this stuff! ) Really never heard of this said Nikki in awe. Can we make some? Sure
go ahead said the Shop Owner. Soon Nikki mixed some berries together and made some Pink
Pokeblocks. All right Jolteon you're the first to try it out said Nikki. Sure not a problem said
Jolteon. Jolteon ate a couple and said Hey not bad. Hey let me make some said Kyle. Soon Kyle
made some Brown Pokeblocks. Ok Espeon you get the first try. Espeon said Espeon happily.
Espeon took a bite and even she had to admit Pokeblocks were pretty good. Not only are
Pokeblocks good for Pokemon. They are also good for Contests said the Shop Owner. Really
said Marina. Yes said a girl with long teal colored hair. The others didn't know who she was. But
Marina instantly turned around and cried out Katie! The two friends hugged each other. Long
time no see said Katie! Yeah it has been said Marina. But I guess that's what happens when
you're a World Famous Pokémon Idol Coordinator said Katie. By the way who are your
friends? Well this is my boyfriend Jimmy said Marina. Pleasure to meet you said Jimmy. Same
here said Katie. This is Kyle J. Chang said Marina. And I am his fiancé Melanie said Melanie!
Nice to meet the Pride of Lilycove said Kyle. Nice to meet you too said Katie. By the way isn't
your Mother one of the Sharpedos on Sharpedo Tank asked Katie. Yeah she is said Kyle
nervously. And didn't you compete in Kafue Town Battle Tournament in the Amaro Region and
lose to Gavin Ketchum recently asked Katie? Yeah why do you ask? Well it just so happens I
meet his cousin Ash as well a few years. I lost to him in the Evergrand Conference. Well I guess
that's one thing we have in common is we both to a Ketchum said Kyle nervously. Katie just
laughed. Oh and you two are? I am Nikki Avalon and this is my cousin Madison said Nikki.
Were both from Sinnoh. So I take you are going to compete in the Lilycove Contest said Katie.
Yeah I only need one more Contest Ribbon in order to compete in the Grand Festival said Nikki
happily. Well it just happens I just need one more Ribbon to compete in the Grand Festival as
well! See you at the Contest tomorrow said Katie.
The Next Day
The six of them arrived at the Lilycove Pokémon Center. Nikki was a vibrant Green Jester
Costume that Madison had designed (the Costume is the same one Sakura wore in Cardcaptor
Sakura Episode 30. I think I will just leave it at that. Yeah please do! Well it's very Mardi Gras
to me ! Hey will you two stop breaking the Fourth Wall). So Nikki are you nervous asked Kyle?
A little said Nikki! Hey just one just more win here and it's off to the Grand Festival said Marina
! Right said Nikki with smile. Ready to win Jolteon? Ready as I will ever be said Jolteon
happily! Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome Lillycove Pokémon Contest! I am your host Vivian!
The winner will receive this Ribbon enabling to participate in the Hoenn Grand Festival!
Yeah like we haven't heard that how many times in this story said Jimmy with his arms folded
across ! (Ok Jimmy don't you start Breaking-the Fourth Wall too!) Here are your judges Mr
Contesta, Mr. Sukizo and Lillycove City's own Nurse Joy! Welcome said Mr. Contesta. It's
pleasure to have you all here said Mr. Sukizo. I am looking forward to seeing all the wonderful
Coordinator's today said Nurse Joy! Also today one lucky member of our audience will receive
special Pokémon Egg said Vivian. A Pokémon Egg inside an Egg Case appeared on the screen.
Now here is our first contestant the Pride of Lilycove Katie! Golduck your up said Katie as she
started playing the Clarinet. Golduck use Water Gun said Katie! Golduck opened its mouth and
started making different shapes out the Water Gun all while Katie was playing the Clarinet. Well
get those ponchos out we are defiantly in for a wet –yet very musical performance said Vivian.
Now finish it with Bubble said Katie. Golduck opened its mouth and bubbles came out of its
mouth. Now use Water Gun once more said Katie. Golduck used Water Gun around the
bubbles. The crowd started applauding wildly for the Pride of Lillycove. That was pretty
amazing said Marina. Yeah not bad for a water show said Jimmy. Not bad at all said Melanie
sarcastically as she tried to dry herself off. Good thing I brought my Pancho said Kyle. Espeon
said Espeon. Misdreavous said Little Miss. Now let's what are judges have to say said Vivian. A
very wet yet very creative performance said Mr. Sukizo. The perfect Combination of Water and
Music said Mr. Contesta . I expected nothing less from the Pride of Lilycove. Katie received a
score of 29.5. Maybe I should have taken those music lessons a little more seriously thought
Nikki as she Jolteon prepared for their appeal round next. Little did they know a trainer with
long-blonde hair that covered much of her face except for one lone eye was watching them from
above. She also was holding bell that was attached to a long purple cloth. It's been a while Nikki
she said ! You have grown into quite a Trainer/Coordinator. No heard though. But Nikki and
Jolteon did. Huh that sounded like? Yeah it did but it couldn't be? No it couldn't said Jolteon.
Kyle looked up farther into the stands and noticed the Blonde Women. That looks a lot like the
Sinnoh Champion Cynthia thought Kyle. Espeon knew what Kyle was thinking but she didn't
say anything. Our next Contestant is Nikki Avalon from Lake Valor in the Sinnoh Region said
Vivian. Jolteon use Thunder said Nikki! You thought a water show was cool? Well watch this
said Jolteon. The Thunder from Jolteon's fur lit up the Contest Arena. The crowd was in awe.
Now use Pin Missile said Nikki. Spike's from Joelton's fur came out and spun around. What
performance said Vivian. Now let's see what the Judges have to say! Remarkable said Mr.
Suzkizo. You know the old saying that when there is Rain there is Thunder! Well there is
Thunder certainly here today said Mr. Contesta . Quite Electrifying said Nurse Joy. Nikki
received a score of 29. Now our judges will decide which our Contestants will proceed to the
final rounds. In meantime as we mentioned earlier one lucky member in our audience will
receive this Pokémon Egg said Vivian ! And our lucky member the World Famous Pokémon
Idol Marina! All right said Marina receiving the Egg Case! I wonder what's inside asked Jimmy.
Who knows said Kyle. Now our Judges will reveal who move onto to the final rounds. Both
Nikki and Katie made it.

Final Round
Our two final Contestants are Katie and Nikki! Whoever wins this round wins the Lilycove
Ribbon said Vivian! Judges give me five minutes on the clock. I wonder who has got the
advantage said Madison recording. Probably Nikki since Golduck is an Electric Type said
Melanie. But forget Katie is also very tough said Kyle. Golduck use Hydro Pump said Katie !
Golduck blasts a powerful jet of water from its bill at Jolteon. Jolteon dodge it and use Thunder
said Nikki ! Jolteon fired a massive beam of electricity at Goldduck ! Golduck took a direct hit
and Katie lost points. Golduck use Confusion said Katie! Golduck's eyes glowed light blue and
controled Jolteon with its mind. Jolteon also glowed light blue. Now use Fury Swipes said Katie
! Golduck repeatedly slashed Jolteon with its claws. Jolteon cried Nikki! What a shocker said
Vivian as Nikki lost points Can Jolteon get back into this? Jolteon snap out of it said Nikki. I am
alright said Jolteon. Now use Pin Missle said Nikki! Take this! said Jolteon as his fur became
piky and fired yellow needles from its fur at Goldduck. Now finish it with Discharge! Jolteon
released multiple light blue beams of electricity from its body at Golduck. Golduck was soon
knocked out with swirly eyes. What twist of events Jolteon was able to come emerge victorious!
This means Nikki is the winner of Lilycove Ribbon. All right said Nikki and Jolteon ! You did
your best Golduck said Katie and proud of you. Golduck said Golduck. We look forward to
seeing you at the Grand Festival said Mr Sukizo. Congratulations Nikki said Kyle giving her a
congratulatory hug ! Thanks said Nikki smiling. The two stared each other for moment and
leaned closely… Nikki you have got all five contest ribbons needed to enter the Hoenn Grand
Festival said Madison. Yes I do said Nikki excitedly! Little did they know the blonde haired
women had seen the whole thing? Will see each other soon Nikki she said and then walked off.
Just then Katie showed up. Thank you for a great Contest today said Katie. Yeah sorry you lost
said Nikki. It's no problem there another Pokémon Contest in Pacifidlog Town in a couple of
weeks I can win my fifth Contest Ribbon there said Katie. Well Good Luck said Nikki. Same to
you said Katie. Guess I will see you at the Hoenn Grand Festival I will bet there said Katie with
a wink. Well got to go now. Mom is making me my favorite food for dinner tonight. Spicy
spaghetti with Tamato Berries! Well see you at the Grand Festival said Katie waving. Bye
said Nikki and the rest of them. The six of them then proceeded to the Pokémon Center.
However they were soon stopped by a boy with brown hair and brown eyes, wearing gray pants,
a blue hoodie with sleeves that looked slightly a bit too long, a black shirt that had a decal on it
that looked like a Pokéball over a crossbones symbol, and black tennis shoes. On his head, he
wore a green wintertime beanie with a decal of a white circle with multiple lines going through
it. On his shoulder was a purple monkey creature with a tail that looked like a hand and a goofy
grin on its face( Pokémon: League of Ultimate's Chapter 29). Well if it isn't Kyle J. Chang from
the Kafue Town Battle Tournament said Walker. Oh no don't tell me you're here said Kyle!
