Episode 31: Shining Contest, Reunion of Two Pokemon

It's the day the Pokemon Contest in Silver Town, all the Coordinators who are participating ate practicing for the event. As usual, Diana is practicing with her own performance with Clefairy and Eevee, since they'll be in the contest this time around.

Diana calls out, "Alright Clefairy, use Heal Pulse. Eevee, use swift!"

Clefiary performs Heal Pulse that surrounds it and the other area. Eevee performs Swift and rides on one of the stars.

"Clefairy, use Moonlight. And Eevee, use iron Tail," Diana calls out.

The move Moonlight makes the moon appear out of nowhere and shines down on Clefairy. Then, Eevee uses Iron Tail to hit the large stair and they show around into mini stars. Eevee lands on the ground to do a finish. Clefair twirls around and finishes with a pose to show sparkling eyes.

Hana, Pikachu, Akira, Alistair, Chase, Ember, and Pichu clap with glee.

"That was amazing Diana," Hana says.

"Thanks. I think we're going to do great. If we win, we'll get our fourth ribbon," Diana says.

"Clefairy," (Yippie!) Clefairy happily says.

"Eevee," (Yeah.) Eevee replies.

"So Diana, who will you be planning to use in which round?" Chase asks.

"Clefairy will be competing in the first round while Eevee along with Ember will be performing in the second round," Diana says.

"I'm sure you'll do great," Hana says.

"And Pichu seems excited to see the contest," Akira says.

Pichu reaches his little paws to Diana, "Pichu Pichu," (I like to be in it with you mommy.)

"Pichu says that he wants to be in the contest with you, too," Hana says.

Diana then picks up Pichu and holds him in her arms.

She then says, "Sorry Pichu, but you can't be in the contest. You're too young."

Pichu then begins to frown in disappointment.

Diana smiles and pets Pichu, "Don't worry, it will take time, patience, experience, and learn some new moves. Let's not forget you learning new moves. You'll be able to be in a contest in no time."

"Pichu," (Okay.) Pichu happily says.

"Diana!" A voice calls out.

The Coordinator turns to see Jeanie, a friend and a fellow Coordinator.

"Jeanie," Diana happily says.

"Hey Diana, it's great to see you. I didn't know you're competing in Silver Town," Jeanie says.

"I sure am," Diana says.

That's when Clefairy and Eevee walk over with smiles. Jeanie looks down to see them.

"Wow! So this is your Clefairy. I saw your great performance at the Mulberry City Pokemon Contest. You all were great," Jeanie says.

"Thanks," Diana says.

Then asks, "So are you going to use Butterfree too?"

"No. Clefairy and Eevee will be in the contest. Butterfree is actually not with me anymore," Diana says.

"Really?" Jeanie asks, a little surprised.

"Yes. We came toward a cliff during the Butterfree Mating season, My Butterfree and a Butterfree belonged to Cindy, another trainer became mates. And so I released her and she and her mate went off to start their new family," Diana says.

"Oh, that is so sweet. I wish your Butterfree good luck on her new family," Jeanie says.

"Thanks," Diana says.

Jeanie then notices Eevee and Pichu, "I assume they're your new Pokemon."

"Oh you don't know the half of it," Diana says.

Then shows Pichu, "And this little guy just hatched from an egg the day before yesterday. He's my new little baby."

"Oh, he is so cute," Jeanie says.

Then begins to tickle his tummy, "Tickle tickle tickle."

Pichu giggles as he moves around in Diana's arms. Suddenly, Pichu sneezes and lets out a little electricity. The girls can't help but smile.

Jeanie says, "Well, we better get going. The contest will be starting soon."

"Right," Diana says.

Soon, the girls begin to walk to the hall.

Diana asks, "So how many ribbons did you have so far?"

"I got two and am hoping to make this my third," Jeanie says.

"And I'm hoping to make this my fourth," Diana says.

"We'll see in the contest," Jeanie says.

Then both girls begin laughing.

In the Pokemon Contest hall, everyone is in their seats alone, The judges: Contesta, Sukizo, and Nurse Joy are at the judging seats. Lillian is standing in the middle of the battle field.

Lillian announces, "Ladies and Gentlemen it's showtime. Where the very best Coordinators really shine. The Silver Town Contest. The People of Silver Town welcome you with open arms. My name… call me Lillian, and now, give yourself a stunning hand."

Everyone claps and cheers with excitement. Hana and the others are sitting in the front row. Hana is also in charge of watching Pichu.

"Lillian sure knows how to get a contest going," Akira says.

"She sure does," Chase says.

Hana turns to Pichu, "Okay Pichu, you'll get to watch how Diana performs in the Pokemon Contest."

"Pi," (Kay.) Pichu happily says.

Lillian then says, "And now, it's time to introduce our judges. First, the head of the Contest Committee: Mr. Contesta."

Mr. Constesta says, "Thank you, I'm looking forward to a big show."

"And next, the Head of the Pokemon Fan Club: Mr. Sukizo," Lillian adds.

Mr. Sukizo says, "Thanks. Remarkable."

"Finally, presenting Silver Town's own Nurse Joy," Lillian presents.

Nurse Joy says, "Thank you, what a nice greeting."

"Now it's time to meet and greet our Coordinators. Come on!" Lillian says.

With that, all the Coordinators begin to walk out of the room and on the battlefield. They soon see Jeanie and Diana next to each other.

Hana waves, "Hi Diana."

"Pika Pi," (Go Diana!) Pikachu says.

"Pichu Pi," (You can win mommy!) Pichu cheers.

On the stage Lillian says, "I fine looking group of competitors ready to give it their all. Let's give them all a big round of applause.

Everyone soon clap and cheer for the Coordinators that are going to be in the Contest.

"Alright time for the magic word… Let's get busy! Lillian announces.

Everyone begins to clap and cheer with excitement.

Soon, the Coordinators begin to perform. A trainer that has a Bellossom performs Petal Dance. Then an Exeggutor performs Sludge Bomb. Thena Farfetch'd perform Sword Dance. The crowd is soon going wild.

Lillian says, "Looks like everything is coming along. Up next, we have Diana of Ecruteak City."

Hana calls out, "You can do it, Diana!"

"Show them what you made of!" Akira calls out.

Then Pikachu, Alistair, and Pichu cheer, in their language, "Go Diana!"

Diana holds out her Pokeball, "Alright Clefairy, spot light!"

Hana throws her Pokeball and Clefairy comes out of it. Clefairy begins with a twirl and she begins to perform Sweet Kiss. Hearts begin to surround the area and Clefairy lands on her little toes. Then takes a curtsy making the crowd cheer.

Hana smiles, "Aww, what a cute entrance."

"Those two have practiced their timing really well," Chase says.

Diana calls out, "Alright Clefairy, use Heal Pulse."

Clefairy begins to perform Heal Pulse that surrounds the field and makes the hearts bounce around.

Diana then calls out, "Now, use Moonlight."

Clarify performs the move and moonlight surrounds the battle field making beautiful pink shine and the hearts sparkle. Everyone claps and cheers with excitement.

"Alright Clefairy, finish it off with Meteor Mash!" Diana calls out.

A large shiny star appears from Clefairy's little finger and she throws it in the air. Then Clefairy flies up and then smashes the star to the ground. Soon, the star separates and turns into multiple stars. Then Clefairy lands on the ground as the stars and hearts come down. Soon, hearts and stars begin to gently fall down to the ground. Everyone claps and cheers with excitement.

Lillian says, "Wow, what a performance. Cute and elegant."

Everyone continues to cheer for Clefairy's performance.

"Ingenious move," Contest says.

Sukizo says, "Yes remarkable."

"Cute and very elegant that shows off Clefairy's fairy type abilities," Nurse Joy says.

Hana and her friends cheer and Pichu is astonished to see Diana's performance and can't wait for his time to be in the contest.

Lillian then says, "Now please give a hand to Jeanie of New Bark Town."

On the battlefield, Jeanie throws her Pokeball and calls out, "Masquerain, it's your time to shine."

Coming out of Jeanie's Pokeball is a light blue Pokémon with two pairs of rhombus-shaped wings on each side of its body. Its head is shaped like an elongated teardrop with a pink face and round, black eyes. On either side of its head is a large antenna that resembles an angry eye. The antennae are white with pink along the lower rim. White lines along the rim resemble eyelashes, while a large, dark pink dot in the middle represents the pupil or iris.

"Jeanie has a Masquerain," Chase says.

Hana brings out her Pokedex, "So her Surskit evolved."

Dexter says, "Masquerain, the Eyeball Pokémon. Masquerain is the evolved form of Surskit. Its feelers, which resemble eyeballs, help to throw off opponents. It is able to hover in the sky like a helicopter."

"Sure looks strong," Chase says.

"And very pretty," Hana replies.

Jeanie then calls out, "Masquerain, use Water Pulse."

Masquerain begins to perform water pulse around the area.

"Now, use Silver Wind," Jeanie calls out.

Then Masquerain performs Silver Wind around the Water Pulse and cause them to shatter into sparkles.

"Now, use Bubble Beam," Jeanie calls out.

Masquerain then performs Bubble Beam around the area.

"And for the finish touch, use Whirlwind," Jeanie says.

Masquerain performs the move that spins the bubbles around. They all pop to see the sparkling bubbles land on the ground making everyone in awed. Hana and her friends are also impressed. Time has gone by and the remaining trainers have come and finish their performances.

Soon Lillian is on the battlefield again.

She then says, "And that wraps up a preliminary round. So now it's time to hear from our judges. Moving to the second round, will be those eight gifted Coordinators. Congratulations.

On the screen it shows that Jeanie and Diana have made it to the second round with three male Coordinators and three female Coordinators. Jeanie taking first and Diana second.

"Wow! Diana is in second place!" Hana says.

"And with Jeanie taking first," Chase says.

Suddenly, Lillian announces, "Now for round two, the Contest battle. Go for the dukes!"

Everyone begins to cheer with excitement. And soon the second round takes place.

Diana calls out, "Eevee, use Shadow Ball"

Eevee uses Shadow Ball on a Bellossom and is able to defeat it in no time.

Jeanie is soon at her round, "Umbreon, use Dark Pulse!"

Jeanie Umbreon then uses the Dark Pulse on a Farfetch'd and is able to defeat it with ease. Throughout the contest, Diana and Jeanie are able to defeat their opponent with grace, power, and elegance. Everyone claps and cheers with excitement. And soon, it's the final round with Diana vs. Jeanie.

Lillian says, "And now it's time for the Silver Town Contest final round. And the two competing are Diana and Jeanie."

Everyone begins to clap and cheer with excitement.

Lillian then announces, "Now, it's time for the final round! So let's bring it home!"

Diana throws her Pokemon, "Ember, take the stage!"

"Bloom, out you come!" Jeanie says.

On Diana's side, Ember, the Cyndaquil takes the stage. Jeanie's Pokemon, Blossom is a quadruped, pale green Pokémon that resembles a sauropod dinosaur. It has a long neck, yellow eyes, a short, blunt snout, and two stamen-like antennae on top of its snout. The antennae are shorter on a female than on a male. Encircling its neck are large, pink flower petals with a yellow central pattern and white edges. It has three claws on each foot and a stubby tail.

"Meganium, huh," Hana says, bringing out her Pokedex.

Dexter says, "Meganium, the Herb Pokémon. Meganium is Chikorita's final evolved form. It releases a scent from its petals that has the power to quell the desire to fight."

Diana says, amazed, "Blossom. Wow! I haven't seen her since she was a Bayleef."

"Thanks. We did a lot of training during our time, but now it's time to see who will win," Jeanie says.

"You know it," Diana says.

Then calls out, "Ember, use Flamethrower."

Ember then begins to perform Flamethrower.

Jeanue then calls out, "Meganium, Vine Whip!"

Meganium then uses Vine Whip to knock out the Flamethrower, much to Diana and Ember's shock.

"What? Flamethrower should have counter against Flamethrower," Chase says, shocked.

"That must be one tough Meganium," Hana says.

Then Jeanie calls out, "Now Meganium, use Frenzy Plant!"

Diana and Hana become shocked.

"Frenzy Plant!" Hana exclaims.

"That's a very powerful grass type move.," Chase says.

Meganium then raises her front legs and stomps to the ground. Then light brown vines rise from the surface and begin to sprout all over the place.

"Oh no! Ember, use Fire Spin!" Diana calls out.

Ember uses her Flame Wheel to get past the Frenzy Plant. However, one of them smacks the Flame Wheel hard, making Ember lose the ability. Soon Ember falls to the ground. Diana loses a lot of points and Jeanie now has the most points. There is 1:30 on the clock.

Diana asks, "Ember, are you alright?"

Ember begins to stand up and seems to be fine.

On the stand, Hana says, "Frenzy Plant. It's one of the most powerful Grass Type moves."

Diana then calls out, "Ember, use Swift and then use Flamethrower."

Ember begins to perform Swift and she jumps in the air. Then performs Flamethrower allowing the Swift to travel with the Flamethrower and able to strike against Meganium, making her lose some points.

"Alright Diana," Hana cheers.

"That was an interesting idea to combine Flamethrower and Swift like that," Chase says.

Soon, there is around a half a minute on the clock.

Diana says, "You're doing great Ember, now let's turn this around and try to win it."

"Cyndaquil!" Ember says.

Then Diana calls out, "Alright Ember use Flamethrower!"

Ember then fires her Flamethrower.

Then Jeanie calls out, "Bloom, use Magical Leaf!"

Then Bloom begins to perform the attack as well.

Both of the attacks strike at each other for full force. And both of the attacks strike each other out. Soon, the time ends at zero and they beep.

"Times up!" Lillian announces.

That makes both of the trainers and Pokemon stop and look at the screen.

"And the winner of the Silver Town Contest is…" Lillian says.

They look at the screen and surprisingly, Jeanie ends up with more points left over than Diana. Then Jeanie along with her Pokemon's photos appear.

"And it's Jeanie!" Lillian announces.

Jeanie and Meganium smile to see that they won.

She hugs her Pokemon and says, "You did great girl."

Meganium happily smiles.

Ember becomes a little sad to have lost.

Diana kneels down to pet Ember, "You did wonderful Ember."

"Cyndaquil," Ember says, cheered up.

Suddenly, Ember begins to glow. That causes Diana to stand up in surprise. Everyone in the audience became shocked to see this. Hana and the others, including Jeanie and Meganium become surprised.

Diana says, surprised, "Ember."

"Wow! I don't believe it," Chase says.

"No kidding," Akira says.

"Yeah. Ember is…"

Lillian says, surprised, "I don't believe it, Diana's Cyndaquil is beginning to evolve!"

Ember changes her shape and size as she enlarges and glows. When the light disappears, Ember is now a quadruped Pokémon with a long, slender body. The top half of its body is a dark blue-green, while its underside is cream-colored. It has triangular ears with dark red interiors, a rounded snout, and triangular red eyes. Each of its paws has three toes. It has five red spots on its body that can project flames: two arranged vertically on its forehead and three lined up horizontally on its rear.

Ember calls out, "Quilava!"

Diana says, in surprise, "Ember just…"

"Evolved into Quilava!" Jeanie says, surprised.

Lillian says, surprised and excited, "Wow! Talk about a turn of events! Even though Meganium was the winner, Cyndaquil ended up evolving right before our eyes!"

Everyone claps and cheers with excitement to see the event. Jeanie and Diana smile and give each other a hand shake for a great battle. Bloom and Ember smile at each other with glee.

Sometime after the contest, Hana dn Diana switched Pokemons at the center. She receives Haunter, Spewpa, Cascoon, both Eevees and Popplio. Diana does the same with switching her Pokemon. She receives Fennekin, Smoochum, and Popplio.

Soon, they are leaving Silver Town and saying goodbye to Jeanie.

"Congratulations on your win Jeanie," Diana says.

"Thanks. We all battled very hard today and now I have my third ribbon," Jeanie says.

Then turns to Ember, "And congratulations on evolving, Ember."

"Quilvava," (Thank you.) Ember says.

"So what do you plan to do now?" Jeanie asks.

"We're going to Saffron City. Hana has a Gym Battle and I heard there's going to be one in Saffron City," Diana says.

"Sounds interesting, but I'm going to skip that one, and like to work on some new performance," Jeanie says.

"Okay. I heard the Wallace Cup will be coming to Kanto in Sunny Town, I hope to see you there," Diana says.

"I sure will. That's why I'm planning to work on my contest battles and routine," Jeanie says.

"We'll see you then, bye," Diana says.

"Bye," Jeanie says, then begins to head on her way.

Soon, Hana and the others are walking down the path and are already out of the city to continue their journey. Even though Diana didn't win, she also ends up gaining good experiences and Ember evolves to Quilava. And so, Hana and her friends continue on their Pokemon Journey. As the Journey Continues.
