Hey ho, let's go! (Tyson, Alexis, and Bolt fixing their new clothes and smiles at the camera)
Another day, another quest (Tyson, Alexis, and Bolt and their Pokemon are seen stretching then flashing to Tyson and Bolt sparing)
On the road to be the best! (Tyson in the Kalos League and Alexis in The Grand Festival)
Can't let evil get me down (Tyson is confronted by Brett and Houndoom, Cruz with Ampharos, Serenity with Medicham, and a trainer with their Pokemon shrouded in darkness standing under a man smirking evilly)
Not when I got great friends around! (Bolt and Alexis comes and puts their hand on his back)
I will! (2x) be a champion (Tyson is shown with 11 faded Pokemon behind him)
Let's go! (2x) bring it on! (Ryan flashes with Quilladin and Absol, Lucas flashes with Roselia and Gallade, Molly flashes with Dewott and Charmeleon and Leon with Combusken and Prinplup)
I know there are mysteries to be told (The Hood is standing on top of a huge tower as his Mega Charizard zips forward and breaks the camera)
All I need to do is reach for gold! (Tyson steps on the broken glass and see Owen about 20 steps ahead of him)
Hey ho, let's go! (Tyson, Alexis, and Bolt are standing on a hill, looking at the sunset)
So, I know you guys may want another Tyson chapter, but nope! Seriously, this is important for both Alexis and Beatrice, along with two Pokemon.
MysticBeatz21: Well, the Courmarine Arc will probably be your favorite since Alexis will have another, but major contest.
El Torro: No need to apologize, things happen. Also, I know exactly what you are saying. Alexis and Bolt haven't proved anything to Owen, Korrina, and Gurkinn. However, Bolt proved himself to somebody this arc, while Alexis showed off her strength to Larenz. Don't fret, Alexis will have next arc to prove herself!

"Braixen, use Flamethrower to chase Hawlucha! Vaporeon, help Braixen out with Aurora Beam!"
Alexis commanded, shooting her hand into the air.
Braixen grabbed her twig from her tail and twirled it in her hand, waiting for her teammate to start charging her move. With a single nod, both female shot their moves towards Hawlucha, who stood in the middle of it all. The eagle waited patiently, his arms crossed and eyes closed. In a nanosecond, the Wrestling Pokemon shot both his glowing hands out as the two attacks were stopped. Hawlucha, who still had his eyes closed, jumped off the ground and let the attacks collide, creating a cloud of sparkles. The dual type flew out of it like Superman, with the sparkles following him. He landed, and gave a bow as if he was in a contest.
"That was nice improvising, Hawlucha!" Alexis congratulated. The dual type nodded as Braixen and Vaporeon walked over to talk to the team's powerhouse. The coordinator the pulled out her Pokegear and scrolled through the Kalos contest website.
"Any luck?" Bayleef asked. Alexis turned to her grass type and shook her head.
"No. I can't find any Contests nearby," the brown haired girl answered. "Tyson still needs to earn the Rumble Badge and the only contest I can see us reaching in time is the Lumiose one. And amount of contests left will lessen our chances of qualifying for the Grand Festival."
The Johto Pokemon nodded as the duo looked around the group. "Kirlia's still not talking to nobody." Alexis sighed as she rubbed the back of her head.
"I wish I knew what was up. She won't even talk to me." After the girl finished her statement, Nurse Joy walked towards her.
"Alexis, there's somebody inside the Pokemon Center who wishes to speak with you," the pink haired woman said.
"Do you know who it is?" Alexis questioned. The nurse shook her head and had a serious face.
"No, but she said it was urgent."

"She's right there," Joy pointed to a figure sitting down on one of the center's couches. Alexis nodded and walked towards the couch.
"Hello. You wanted to see me," Alexis started. The figure stood from the couch and revealed a familiar blonde teen. Alexis shot back from her previous stance and pointed at the girl. "Beatrice? What are you doing here?"
"Don't act like I want to be here," Beatrice said, crossing her arms and holding her head high in the air.
"That brings me back to my question; why are you here?" Beatrice sighed as Glameow jumped from the couch to talk to Braixen. The coordinator looked around to see the rest of her rival's team and shifted attention from Hawlucha and Kirlia.
"Ralts evolved and you caught a Hawlucha," Beatrice stated, having the eagle eye her carefully and Kirlia run towards her.
"Kirlia, what are you doing?" Alexis asked. Beatrice, surprisingly, had a faint smile and grabbed another red and white capsule from her waist. She pressed the middle button and released Buneary, who bounced over to the brown haired girl.
"That's why I'm here," Beatrice said. "Buneary wants to join you."
"What are you talking about?" Alexis inquired, trying to understand her rival. "You're probably saying that because Buneary wasn't helping you!" Beatrice, after hearing Alexis' accusation, threw her arms to the side and looked at the girl with an angry expression.
"I'm saying it not only because it's the truth, but because I hold Buneary's best interests in heart!" Alexis held her head down for her incorrect thought about Beatrice. Sure, she may be an egotistical jerk only caring about herself, but she pushed away her pride to listen to Buneary's wishes.
"I'm sorry, Beatrice," Alexis apologized, to which the blonde accepted.
"Buneary has been quiet ever since the Shalour Contest and I was able to figure it out," Beatrice started. "She was content with everyone on my team, but ever since she met you back at the Camphrier Town Contest, she's been different."
Alexis chuckled as she saw the same change in Kirlia. Even after they obtained their Mega Stone and Mega Bracelet. Deep down, the coordinator knew that their bond has been drifting away for some time.
"You know, I have an idea better than just Buneary coming with me."
"Which is?" Beatrice questioned, irritated that she was sharing her feelings with her rival and being in the same space for too long.
"We have a Pokemon trade," Alexis proposed, which shocked the blonde. "Kirlia should go with you, Bea." The rivals stood silent for a few minutes before nodding.

"Ready?" Alexis asked, putting Kirlia's Pokemon on the console.
"Let's get this over with," Beatrice spat back, with a smirk. She put Buneary's on the opposite console as the machine started. The capsules were sucked into the machine and poofed out on the opposite sides. The new trainers took their new Pokemon and released them; Buneary with Alexis, Kirlia with Beatrice. The coordinators said their goodbyes to their former Pokemon as Beatrice began to walk away with Glameow and Kirlia. The blonde then turned around and crossed her arms.
"Also, in Coumarine City, the Wallace Cup will be there," Beatrice announced, which shocked the brown haired girl. "It's a contest that was created by Wallace to show off the beauty of water Pokemon."
"Why are you telling me this?" Alexis inquired.
"I'm telling you because since I'm not going to be there, you need to win," Beatrice said. With a swift turn of her head, she and her Pokemon walked out of the Pokemon Center.
Alexis stood in the center and gripped her Mega Bracelet. She took a deep breath before she faced her team.
"Let's get back to training!" she exclaimed, to which all of them cheered.
So, I'll be getting better, hopefully, at writing scenes with Alexis in the next arc. So, Alexis now has a Buneary, who will help her big time in the Wallace Cup!
Did you understand the trade between Alexis and Beatrice?
