Episode 555: Pokévision Blockbusters
Where we last off, the hooded figure has just slained one of the creatures. It dissolves into pure darkness. Two more of them comes jumping towards him, but he threw the key weapon, slicing through them. The weapon comes back to him in a flash of light. He finishes off the last of the creatures. He pants, having to deal with the creatures. He fell on his knees, panting. Just then, a Digimon emerges from his side as bits of data. It is a dragon-like Digimon with white armored skin, dark blue claws, gold eyes, and horns. He wore a red cloak with a hood that has goggles embedded in it.
"You should have called me out, Matthew. I would have helped you against those Heartless," the Digimon said.
"Don't worry about me, Hackmon. You know I can handle them just fine," Matthew said under his hood.
"Yeah, but what if stronger Heartless came and attacked for no reason?" Hackmon asked. "You remember what happened before?"
(Flashback)
We take a look into a completely different world. We see a young man with hazel eyes and a hairstyle similar to Sora's, and light brown skin. He wore an RX-0 Unicorn Gundam T-shirt and a pair of shorts. He looked around and he sees a bunch of Heartless coming up from the ground. The Heartless came at the young man and he took out two sabers and he swung at them. His eyes changes to dichromatic, red and purple.
Hackmon and a bipedal Digimon that resembles a hedgehog fought alongside him. He has light blue eyes, a black snout, ears, white fur, large red claws, and a small tail. His feet have two digits, and his hand have three. His thumbs are his only clawless digits. He has a zigzag-shaped mouth and yellow marks on his belly and under his eyes. He also has gray spiky—mimicking a hedgehog's spikes—on his back, around his neck, under his ears, on the back of his head, and from the top of his head until its snout. The larger strings of fur on the top of its head are yellow, and fur under its ears also has yellow tips.
"Herrismon, Hackmon, you take those Heartless on the left! Leave the rest to me!" Matthew said.
"On it!" Herrismon said. Electricity emits from the quills. "Lightning Quills!" Herrismon fired right at the Heartless, destroying them.
"Fifth Rush!" Hackmon shouted. He cuts the Heartless with his claws.
Suddenly, other Heartless appeared before them. They have muscular forms that are clad in a bluish-black body suit bearing the an emblem and purple inverted emblems trimmed in gold on the knees. They wore black, silver trimmed shoes that end in spiral toes, silver wristbands, and a silver knight's helm decorated with two angular, eye-like spirals on the front and a yellow stripe at the base of the curled silver plume. Its true Heartless behavior comes out on a close examination of their fierce blue and red-tipped claws, and their shadowed faces with bright yellow eyes and toothy maw. They all have a symbol that is comprised of a heart with a fleur-de-lis at its base. It is typically black with a red outline and spiked "X" crossing through the heart in the symbol.
"Shadow Heartless are but, but Soldier Heartless are something else," Matthew said. He swings at the attacking Soldier Heartless. They spin around with their claws going like a tornado. Matthew dodged and then slashed the Heartless, destroying the monster. In doing so, a heart is seen floating up into the air and then vanished through darkness. Three large Heartless appeared before them. Nearly spherical in shape, These Heartless also have massive arms and hands, short legs, huge feet, and tiny heads. These blue-skinned Heartless are clothed in a purple sleeveless bodysuit edged in gold trim; the trim also laces up the front of the body suit across its big belly. They have black curl-toe shoes and black silver-trimmed pants, Large Bodies also boast a massive manacle in purple and silver on each wrist; three links of chain dangle from each of them. They are topped off by a high silver collar that covers their lower face, and a tiny silver wizard hat that ends in a curl. They also shadowed faces and yellow eyes. The three large Heartless charged at them. Just then, a blast of Aura Sphere struck one of them from behind. It was a Mewtwo. This Mewtwo was smiling for some reason.
"Mewtwo!" Hackmon said.
"Your timing couldn't be more perfect than this!" Matthew said. The two large Heartless turned to Mewtwo and then came at them. "Mewtwo! Attack to Large Bodies with another Aura Sphere!" Mewtwo struck one with Aura Sphere, and then the other one. They destroyed all the remaining Heartless. "Good work, guys."
"Those Heartless sure are relentless," Herrismon said.
"As you say. They won't give up that easily though. The same for the Nobodies and the Unversed," Matthew said. He looked at Mewtwo. "You should get some rest for right now, Mewtwo." He took out a Pokéball that has a two-shade purple top forming two brighter purple circles on the sides of the top, as well as a white letter "M" printed on the top. He called Mewtwo back through it. "You two should rest up as well."
"What about you?" Hackmon asked.
"I'll be okay, guys. I can live with the scratches I got," Matthew said.
"That fight really did take a lot out of me," Herrismon said. Matthew took out a small device and he holds up as Hackmon and Herrismon flows back inside of it.
(Flashback ends)
"You and Herrismon always have my back. You're right," Matthew said, taking off his hood. He smiled. "You never fail to put me in my place."
"Someone has to," Hackmon said. "Besides, me, Herrismon, Mewtwo, and your other Pokémon all care about you."
"I know. I care about you, too," Matthew said. He puts his hood back on.
Over to Sora, Kairi, Karen, Riku, Naminé, Ventus, Terra, Aqua, Lillie, Clemont, Bonnie, Pikachu, Angel, Meowth, Dedenne, Blossom, Sparky, Thor, and Eclair, they went to spend some time together. The Digimon, Team Natsu, and the Cooper Gang were taking a break for a while.
"Riku, what Pokémon did you catch while you were in the Kalos region?" Ventus asked. Riku smiled.
"I'll show you," Riku said, taking out his five Pokéballs and threw them upwards. "Come out, everyone!" Riku's Pokéballs opened and revealed his Froakie with stars swirling around him. There is also his Scyther as well. He also has a Honedge, but this Honedge resembles a blood-soaked sword. Stars swirls around Riku's Honedge. He also has a Trevenant, and a Noivern. "Meet my elite team. Froakie and Scyther, some of you know."
"What's with two of yours, Riku?" Happy asked.
"They seem different from the ones Sora has," Natsu pointed out.
"The Froakie and Honedge Riku have are Shiny Pokémon," Naminé said.
"Shiny Pokémon?" Lucy asked.
"Shiny Pokémon are Pokémon that are a different color than they normally are. A perfect example of that is one of those little Pichu you met before," Sora said.
"Pikachu," Pikachu said.
Natsu and Wendy looked at Noivern with great interest.
"If you look closer, this one reminds me of a dragon," Wendy said.
"Noivern is a Flying Type and a Dragon Type," Riku said. Noivern looked at Wendy and sniffed her. It makes her laugh.
"That tickles," Wendy said.
"Those are awesome Pokémon, Riku. They look well-trained," Sora said.
"Thanks, Sora. So, what Pokémon did you catch?" Riku asked. Sora took out his Pokéballs and let out Fletchinder, Hawlucha, and Inkay.
"What do you think?" Sora asked.
"A Fletchinder, a Hawlucha, and an Inkay. They look well-taken care of," Riku said. Inkay floated up to Trevenant and smiled. He held out a tentacle to shake, but Trevenant didn't seem too interested.
"Sora had Fletchinder when he was a little Fletchling," Bonnie said.
"And Hawlucha was caught just recently," Ventus added. Hawlucha did a pose and looked the opposite direction.
"No kidding. I'm looking forward in seeing Hawlucha in action," Riku said.
"Lucha," Hawlucha said.
"So am I. I only had Hawlucha for a short time, so I would like to see for myself as well," Sora said.
Over to Serena, she and Shauna are watching a Pokévision video to see a Fennekin and a fair-skinned girl with strawberry pink-colored hair, scarlet eyes, and very wide hips. She wore light pink lipstick and mascara that's nearly invisible. She has a warm-hearted, cheery smile on her face. She wore a white blouse with a black collar, a pair of long, white gloves, and a blue striped necktie. She also wore a yellow and pink striped skirt, blue striped stockings, pink shoes, and a light blue bow on her head.
"She's so beautiful, isn't she?" Serena asked.
"She sure is," Shauna agreed. "You know, just recently, I heard Aria's Fennekin evolved into a Braixen."
"Really?" Serena asked with disbelief.
"Yes. She uploaded her latest video yesterday," Shauna said. She plays Aria's latest video and it's her and her Braixen.
Over to Lucy, she and Wendy helped out with feeding the Pokémon. Lucy placed a bowl of Pokémon food in front of a Sandile.
"Here you go. Eat up," Lucy said. The Sandile starts to wolf down the food. She places the Pokémon food in front of a Krokorok, and Krookodile. They started to eat up as well. "Wow, hard to believe these cute little guys grow into these big guys."
Wendy placed a bowl of Pokémon food before a Caterpie and a Scatterbug. They started to eat up their food.
As for Murray, he swallowed some of the Pokémon food and he swallowed.
"Hm, tastes like a blend pineapple with a mixture of pear and bananas," Murray said. He gave a loud burp, making the room shake. "Pretty tasty. I can see why they love the stuff."
"Murray, hold up on the eating," Gaomon said. "Those are for the Pokémon, not us."
"Sorry. I'm just hungry," Murray said.
"Just go easy on the eating," Gaomon said.
Meanwhile in an undisclosed location in Viridian City, Looker answered his ringing phone.
"Looker here," Looker said.
"Looker, good to hear your voice. I got a case for you," a voice said.
"I got my hands full dealing with these Malefic Pokémon. This Team Shadow is proving to be more troublesome than Team Rocket," Looker said.
"Sorry to pull this on you, Looker, but there is a matter that cannot wait. Team Flare is on the move," a man's voice said. Looker knew this is a case that cannot wait. "As you are aware, Team Flare have been red hot on our radar for quite some time. We need you head into the Kalos region and investigate their activities."
"What can I do?" Looker asked.
"You can start by trying to identify their leader. After that, you may arrest him and bring him to justice," the man's voice said.
"I'll get ready to depart for Kalos at once," Looker said.
"I knew you were the right man for the job," the man's voice said, breaking contact. Looker hung up and started to make his way to the airport bound for the Kalos region.
Back in Kalos, Sora, Kairi, and Riku challenged Shauna, Tierno, and Trevor to a battle. Sora is battling Tierno while Kairi is battling Shauna, and Riku is battling against Trevor.
"Okay, how do you wanna do this, Sora?" Tierno asked.
"One-on-one good for you, Tierno?" Sora asked.
"Fine with me. And I know who to use," Tierno said, taking out a Pokéball and threw it. "Squirtle! Take the dance floor!" His Squirtle came on out, doing a dance. Sora took out a Pokéball and threw it.
"Go! Hawlucha!" Sora called out. Hawlucha came out doing a pose. "This will be your first battle by my side, Hawlucha."
"Lucha," Hawlucha said.
"Hold on. Did you say, your Hawlucha's first battle?" Tierno asked.
"I caught Hawlucha not too long ago, so this will be a good way to test Hawlucha's battling skills," Sora said.
"Then, let's started! Squirtle! Skull Bash!" Tierno ordered. Squirtle came at Hawlucha with Skull Bash.
"Dodge and use Karate Chop!" Sora ordered. Hawlucha dodged Squirtle's Skull Bash, and lands a hit with Karate Chop.
"Squirtle! Use Ice Beam!" Tierno ordered. Squirtle fired Ice Beam right at the wrestling Pokémon.
"Dodge and use another Karate Chop!" Sora ordered. Hawlucha tried to dodge, but he got struck by Ice Beam. Hawlucha's wing frozen. "Hawlucha!"
"Use Water Gun!" Tierno ordered. Squirtle fired Water Gun right at Hawlucha, landing another hit. "Keep it up, Squirtle!"
"Hawlucha! Use Flying Press!" Sora ordered. Hawlucha jumped and came at the tiny turtle Pokémon with Flying Press, but he is coming so much slower than usual. Squirtle manages to dodge. Sora noticed the reason why Hawlucha's moving so slowly. "Hawlucha's wing is frozen from that Ice Beam. Gotta break the ice. Hawlucha! Karate Chop on your wing!" Hawlucha chops the ice off of his wing. "Use High Jump Kick!" Hawlucha jumped and came at Squirtle.
"Dodge it!" Tierno called out. Squirtle attempts to dodge, but Hawlucha lands a kick onto the tiny turtle Pokémon.
"Nice one!" Sora said. "Okay, Hawlucha! Use Karate Chop!" Hawlucha came at Squirtle with Karate Chop.
"Dodge it!" Tierno called out. Squirtle limbos under Hawlucha's Karate Chop.
"Hawlucha! X-Scissor!" Sora ordered. Hawlucha came at Squirtle with X-Scissor, landing some heavy damage. Tierno was shocked to see his Squirtle go down, but he wasn't surprised to see Sora had won. He went to help his Squirtle up.
"That was awesome, Squirtle," Tierno said. "You battled hard." He called Squirtle back. He smiled. "That was an awesome battle, Sora. Your Hawlucha's tough."
"Thanks. Your Squirtle is quite a battler, and quite a dancer," Sora said.
"Thanks," Tierno said. Both trainers shook hands.
Riku and Trevor got into positions for battle. Trevor took out a Pokéball and threw it.
"You're up, Charmander!" Trevor called out. His Charmander came on out to battle. Riku took out his Pokéball and threw it.
"You're going in, Froakie!" Riku called out. His Froakie came out with a swirl of stars.
"A Water Type Pokémon against my Charmander, huh? My Charmander isn't going to get scared off that easily," Trevor said.
"I don't do easy," Riku said. "And neither do any of my Pokémon."
"Eevee," Eevee said.
"Froakie," Froakie said.
"That's what I like to hear," Trevor said with a smile. "Charmander! Fire Fang!" Charmander ran towards Froakie with Fire Fang.
"Froakie! Dodge and with Quick Attack!" Riku ordered. Froakie dodges with his speed attack just when Charmander got close enough. "Great dodge! Now! Waterfall!" Froakie came at Charmander with Waterfall, landing a heavy hit.
"Charmander! Use Flamethrower!" Trevor ordered.
"Water Pulse!" Riku ordered. Froakie forms Water Pulse and sends it right the lizard Pokémon, landing another hit. "Great job, Froakie." The bubble frog Pokémon turned to his trainer with a smile and nods. Froakie then starts to evolve. The newly evolved Frogadier is the same color as Froakie, but his head, hands and feet are a different shade of dark blue. "You evolved into a Frogadier."
"Frogadier," the newly evolved Frogadier said.
"Okay, Frogadier! Use Water Pulse!" Riku ordered. Frogadier forms Water Pulse and sends it right at Charmander.
"Dodge it, Charmander! Hurry!" Trevor called out. Charmander manages to dodge Frogadier's Water Pulse. "That was close."
"I'll say it was," Riku agreed.
"Charmander! Flame Charge!" Trevor ordered. Charmander ran towards Charmander with Flame Charge.
"Dodge it, Frogadier!" Riku called out. Frogadier jumped out of the way of Flame Charge. Charmander's speed went right up. "Flame Charge again!"
"Use Water Pulse!" Riku ordered. Frogadier sends Water Pulse right at Charmander, landing a hit. "Use Waterfall!" Frogadier lands another hit onto Charmander, resulting in a knockout.
"No way! I lost?!" Trevor exclaimed in shock.
"Good work, Frogadier. All that training paid off," Riku said.
"Eevee," Eevee said.
"That was wonder as always, Riku," Naminé said.
"Azu, Azu!" Azurill chirped.
"Thanks, Naminé. That means a whole lot," Riku said lovingly to his girlfriend. Naminé gave him a deserved hug.
Now over to the girls, Kairi and Shauna got into position for battle.
"I'm gonna win it for you, Serena," Shauna said. She took out a Pokéball and threw it. "You're going in, Bulbasaur!" Her Bulbasaur came on out to battle. Kairi took out a Pokéball and threw it.
"Go! Vivillon!" Kairi called oout. Vivillon came out, flapping her wings.
"Bulbasaur! Start up with Energy Ball!" Shauna ordered. Bulbasaur fired Energy Ball right at Vivillon.
"Use Gust to block it!" Kairi ordered. Vivillon flaps her wings and it sends Energy Ball right back.
"Energy Ball again!" Shauna ordered. Bulbasaur fired another Energy Ball, blocking her own attack, resulting in a small explosion. "Use Vine Whip!" Bulbasaur sends out her vines to smack the scale Pokémon. "Good block, Bulbasaur!"
"That was impressive, Shauna," Kairi said. "You did a wonderful job with her." Shauna didn't need a compliment from the love rival of her best friend, but she didn't want to be rude.
"Thanks, Kairi. Your Vivillon is really awesome, too!" Shauna said. "Bulbasaur! Use Petal Dance!" Bulbasaur unleashed flower petals from her bulb.
"Dodge it!" Kairi called out. Vivillon tried to dodge, but she gets caught in the flower petals and fell to the ground. "Vivillon!"
"Use Solar Beam!" Shauna ordered. Bulbasaur fired a Solar Beam right at Vivillon, landing a heavy hit. It was due to the bright sun being out. But Bulbasaur's attack wasn't enough to take her down. "Vivillon withstood that?"
"Very good, Vivillon! Use Silver Wind!" Kairi ordered. Vivillon flapped her wings and blew a silver sparkling wind right at the seed Pokémon, dealing some damage. "Use Gust!" Vivillon flapped her wings again, dealing some extra damage.
"Get up, Bulbasaur!" Shauna said. Bulbasaur struggled to get up, but fell to the side, beaten. "Bulbasaur!"
"That was a wonderful battle," Kairi said as she called back Vivillon. She walked up to Shauna. "You should be proud." Shauna was disappointed that she lost, but she had a good time battling.
"Thank you, Kairi. You're a really good trainer," Shauna said.
With that said, they shook hands.
Meanwhile at a different location in Kalos, a dimensional rift opened as a red flash came rushing out. Several Mavericks emerged in pursuit. The dimensional rift closes.The red flash, blurred back and a green blur slashed through one of the Mavericks.
"Kill him!" One of the Mavericks shouted, before being decapitated. Sparks erupted from the cut and the head drops on the ground. The figure stopped to see a Reploid greatly resembling Zero, but he was very different. Like Zero, sports a red color scheme, although slightly brighter than his previous body, and retains his long blond hair. His armor is lighter and more humanoid, and he's given a more streamlined helmet, with a sharp blue crystal at the front, to present a much sleeker look.
"Who's next?" The Reploid asked in Zero's voice. They fired at him, but the red Reploid dashed right at the Mavericks, slashing through him like butter. He brings out a blaster from his arm and shoots at a few of them. They kept on firing at him, but the red Reploid lunged at the attacking Mavericks, killing them. He managed to kill them all; or did he? One of them makes one final attempt in killing the red Reploid, only for him to shoot him with his blaster. The Maverick fell backwards with steam emerging from the metallic wound. "When are those Neo Arcadia scumbags gonna learn? They can't catch me." He holsters his weapon and he makes contact.
"Zero to Ciel, requesting a transport back to Resistance HQ," the red Reploid said. No answer came. "Ciel? Can you hear me?" He knew something was off. "Ciel's not responding. I'll have find a way back. Question is where am I?" He takes off to find out where he is.
Unknown to him, the fight was being watched by two individuals, almost looking alike, except one is a boy and the other is a girl. Both have brown hair and green eyes. They also have blue jackets over black bodysuits, white pants, and blue shoes with black soles. They also have gold rings around their wrists and ankles. The white pants on the girl seems to be shorts, and they wore white ear pieces.
Back at the camp on the very next day, the Digimon, Team Natsu, the Cooper Gang, Carmelita, and the Panda King stood alongside Professor Sycamore and Sophie as Sora, Kairi, Riku, Naminé, Karen, Lillie, Ventus, Terra, Aqua, Calem, Serena, Sawyer, Clemont, Bonnie , Pikachu, Eevee, Angel, Meowth, Azurill, Dedenne, Blossom, Sparky, Thor, and Eclair are sitting one one table as Tierno, Trevor, and Shauna sat at another table.
"May I have your attention, please?" Professor Sycamore asked. "Good morning, campers!"
"Good morning!" The campers all said.
"What a lovely day. It's perfect summer camp weather. Today, you'll be making your own Pokévision videos," Professor Sycamore announced.
"Pokévision videos? Oh yeah," Meowth said.
"I'm pretty sure some of you have made Pokévision videos before. But, just in case, it refers to making a Pokémon promo video. I'd like to show you a video I made as an example," Professor Sycamore said.
"And here we go," Bentley said, playing the video.
"Hi there. Welcome to the Sycamore Pokémon Lab. This is where I spend my time researching and taking care of your first Pokémon partners," Professor Sycamore said in the video. He stands on top of the stairs with a Chespin, a Fennekin, and a Froakie on the stairs. "And that's not all. My assistants and I are also busy conducting daily research on Pokémon evolution. The more we research, the more we fins in the world of Pokémon. They're all truly amazing. If you have any questions about the world of Pokémon, don't hesitate to get in touch."
The video ends as everyone applauded the video.
"Thanks so much," Professor Sycamore said. "I'm really grateful for your generous applause. Thanks." Everyone stops clapping. "As you just saw, Pokévision lets trainers and Pokémon show what makes them special to an even wider audience. And so, for today, each team is going to make their very own Pokévision video."
"Now to help you make exciting videos, I've got the tools you need to make Poké Puffs," Sophie said, holding up the baking gear. "Please put them to good use."
"Poké Puffs? Sounds like a tasty way to get started," Calem said.
"And fun," Serena said.
"I wanna make some, too!" Bonnie said.
"Alright, campers! I'd like you to finish your videos by this evening. As to those who are participating in our camp for the first time, the top three teams earn points. This will be decided by a vote we will take right here after the big screening," Sophie said.
"I'm expecting to see some great work," Professor Sycamore said, taking out a whistle out of his pocket. "Ready? Begin!" He blows his whistle.
With that said, everyone started to get started to make their Pokévision videos. Sora, Kairi, Riku, Naminé, Karen, Lillie, Ventus, Terra, Aqua, Calem, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Sawyer, Pikachu, Eevee, Angel, Meowth, Azurill, Blossom, Sparky, Thor, and Eclair were walking from the messhall after the announcement Professor Sycamore made.
"What kind of Poké Puffs are we gonna try and make?" Karen asked.
"Good question," Terra said.
"We should make some that are just perfect for Pikachu, Eevee, Dedenne, Meowth, Azurill, and the rest of our Pokémon" Clemont said.
"I agree," Aqua said.
As they were talking, Matthew continued to monitor them. He removed his hood and he kept watching.
"No signs any Heartless, Nobodies, or Unversed. Not yet anyway. Why did they have to come here? Isn't there a world those bastard monsters didn't find?" Matthew asked himself. He sighed as he thinks.
(Flashback)
We have a look in a different world as Matthew is faced with a bunch of strange white creatures. They all have thin, sinuous bodies. They each have a large, cylindrical head with a flat top that is emblazoned with a symbol that is a splintered upside-down heart. Its body seems to be covered in a light grey jumpsuit, and its "mouth" is actually a zipper that undoes itself to reveal its actual grey, sharp-toothed mouth underneath. They appeared to be fairly muscular, though their arms and legs are very thin. The sides of their bodies are outlined by a black line. Their feet and hands are pointed and lack digits, and their hands each sport two black bands around them.
"Nobodies?! Where did they come from?!" Matthew exclaimed, summoning his key-shaped weapon. "Here I come, ready or not!" He charges at the Nobodies. He swipes at one of them, making them burst into white particles. Just then, a another kind of Nobody seems to be dressed in a baggy, light gray jumpsuit with dark grey legs. Its lower legs fan outward like the lower half of the Nobody symbol, and its feet are nearly featureless, black points. Its arms are very long, light grey, and its hands are flat and teardrop-shaped. The back of each hand sports a white Nobody logo. Its gray head also has a teardrop shape, albeit one that curves to its right. The Nobodies lunged at him again, but he swings his weapon, taking three out. He took out four Ultra Balls and threw them. A Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizon all came out to assist. "Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizon! Sacred Sword!" The three legendary Pokémon all came at the Nobodies and swiped at them with Sacred Sword along with Matthew. They're destroyed and he called them all back. "Thanks, guys. That Keyblade and Sacred Sword combo was the best." He went off further.
(Flashback ends)
He continued to follow the group with his hood back down.
An hour later, the campers all return to make their Pokévision videos. Sawyer decided to work the camera as the rest all helped make the video.
Pikachu, Angel, Eevee, Meowth, Dedenne, Azurill, Blossom, Sparky, Thor, Eclair, Froakie, Fennekin, and Treecko, got into positions to get started.
"Let's get ready to bake!" Ventus said.
Sawyer got started the camera started as the trainers got started on their Poké Puffs. Fennekin uses Flamethrower to bake the Poké Puffs. Bonnie is dressed in a Snubbull suit and wore a Snubbull hat.
"Those look tasty," Naminé said.
"Azu, Azu," Azurill said.
"They look really cute," Bonnie said. Ventus looked right at Bonnie and blushes.
"Not as cute as you, Bonnie," Ventus said in his thoughts. Happy flew by with a teasing grin.
"You love her," Happy said, teasing Ventus.
"How are things between you and Charla, Happy?" Ventus asked, teased back. He flew back.
"He's definitely Sora's cousin," Happy said.
Sora, Kairi, Riku, Naminé, Karen, Ventus, Terra, Aqua, Lillie, Calem, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Pikachu, Angel, Eevee, Azurill, Meowth, Dedenne, Blossom, Sparky, Thor, and Eclair sat down together. Sora had Lucario, Froakie, Inkay, Fletchinder, and Hawlucha out as Kairi has let out Vulpix, Vivillon, Pumpkaboo, Spritzee, and Amaura out as well. Sawyer was very impressed by the Pokémon Sora and Kairi both had.
"Your Pokémon look well-taken care of," Sawyer said.
"Thanks, Sawyer. That means a lot," Sora said.
"I want to say, this is the first time I have ever seen a Vulpix up close. Vulpix cannot be found in the Kalos region," Sawyer said.
"And here are three more who will be joining us," Lillie said, letting out Snowy, Magearna, and Ponyta.
"An Alolan Vulpix!" Sawyer said. "How amazing!"
"She's adorable, isn't she?" Lillie asked.
"Okay, how about we get this started, people!" Meowth suggested.
"You're right, Meowth. Let's do this," Terra said.
"Pikachu," Thor said.
"Lights, camera, action!" Ventus said, turning on the video camera.
That night, the group returned to the messhall after the Pokévision video was finished before the deadline. The campers all were chattering among each other.
"Everyone, be quiet," Erza said, quieting down everyone.
"Now that I have your attention, we are here to view your Pokévision videos, and decide who makes it to the top three," Professor Sycamore announced. "Now, let's have a look, shall we?"
Pokévision videos have started playing one-by-one. Some of them found the videos amusing.
"Ours is next," Ventus said.
"Shh," Riku shushed Ventus.
Team Froakie's video played as Kairi, Karen, and Serena opened a basket of Poké Puffs. All of the Pokémon tackled the girls, making them dropped the Poké Puffs. Laughter filled the room when the video was playing. Natsu, Happy, and most of the Digimon were laughing along with them. Lucario, Trevenant, Noivern, Scyther, and Frogadier caught the Poké Puffs.
"Plenty more where those came from," Kairi, Karen, and Serena all said.
Everyone all applauded for the videos once they all finished.
"And that's it. Now that we have seen everyone's Pokévision video, be sure to vote for your favorite video; other than your own, of course. And we will have the results in one hour," Professor Sycamore said.
That night, Serena and Shauna sat on the beach, looking into the ocean.
"It's so pretty out night," Serena said.
"It sure is," Shauna agreed. "I'm sure you and Sora would have loved it."
"We would if it weren't for her," Serena said, pointing to Sora and Kairi, looking in the distance. Sora has his arm around Kairi's shoulder.
"It must drive you crazy, doesn't it?" Shauna asked.
"If only I just told him my feelings for him, but I don't see him breaking it off with her," Serena said.
"You'll never know unless you go for it," Shauna said, giving her a nudge. Serena didn't know what to say, but she knew her best friend was right; she wanted to tell Sora her feelings for him.
Over to Sora and Kairi, they continued to watch the beach and smiled.
"The sea is very pretty at night," Kairi said.
"Yeah, but not as pretty as you, Kairi," Sora said. Kairi smiled affectionately to her boyfriend.
"You're very sweet, Sora, and I appreciate it," Kairi said.
"If we could, would you like to go swimming on the beach tomorrow?" Sora asked.
"I'd love to," Kairi said.
Sora and Kairi then kissed each other. Serena bit her lower half pretty hard, making her lower lip bleed. Shauna notices.
"Serena, your lip," Shauna said.
"My lips should be touching his, not hers," Serena said.
Just then, Ventus ran up to the couple.
"Sora, Kairi, they're about to announce the winners!" Ventus said. Sora and Kairi nod to each other and went inside. Serena and Shauna knew the winners are about to be announced, so they all sat down to hear the top three videos.
"Now that everyone is present and accounted for, we have announced the winners of our Pokévision video contest. And here are the top three," Professor Sycamore announced. He turned to Bentley. "Bentley, won't you do the honors?"
"It will be my pleasure, professor," Bentley said, clearing his throat. "Taking in third place, we have Team Charmander!" The crowd applauds to the video of a Wailord having to be painted on, and spouting out a Staryu, a Magikarp, and a Goldeen. "Second place, we have Team Chikorita!" The crowd applauds to the video of bird Pokémon flying and creating a wreath of flowers. "And finally, the moment of truth! Taking in first place, we have..." Bentley pauses. Everyone were waiting anxiously for the results. Tierno kept his fingers crossed. "Team Froakie is our winner!" The crowd cheered as Team Froakie all stood up and waved.
"Sorry you guys didn't make it to the top three," Sora said.
"Don't be sorry, Sora. There's no shame in losing to you," Trevor said.
With that said, Team Froakie stood on the platform and waved to the cheering crowd. It was quite a time in camp, and who knows what else will occur? Just wait and see...
