A/N: Howdy, folks! Just as I promised, profiles! Have fun! Also, I have mapped out the Tournament! Huzzah! Anyway, I just noticed that there were a lot of repeated Pokemon, so I changed a few.

Chapter 8: Ceremonial Stupidity


Somewhere, deep within the bowels of the earth, sat a very dark and shadowy secret base. I can't really describe it to you, 'cause the base is so dark, you can't see a thing. And that's because the owner of said base is a stingy miser who won't replace light bulbs when they blow out!

Speaking of which, I can describe his activities a little bit. You see, the only source of light in the entire base was sixteen computer monitors. And they were monitoring, you guessed it, the Tourney's contestants! Our apparently evil and mysterious friend here was watching them via little spy cameras set up throughout Duran.

He watched our "heroes" with amusement in his computer chair made from tapioca pudding. Our shadowy manipulator stroked a Pokémon that looked like some sort of sick mix between a Buneary and a Magikarp on his lap. He turned his head slightly when he realized that his trusty (and shadowy) minion had returned from is latest mission.

"AH," said the leader, "How did it go?"

"..."

"Crap, She was a normal girl? But her name was Mary Sue! No normal girl is named Mary Sue!"

"..."

"Don't get all sarcastic on me! When you realized that she wasn't one, did you dispose of her?"

"..."

"You left no evidence, right? I mean, if people caught wind of our plan, then that would mean game over!"

"..."

"No, I don't take you for an idiot! You made sure all of the contestants would know about the tournament and made sure that they would join!"

"..."

The man sighed. "Okay, you can have a cookie. But just one! You know what happens when you have too much sugar! Do you remember how long it took to cover up the mass genocide of Twilight fangirls? Anyway, now that they're all here, we just need to wait while they pick each other off, one by one! Then we'll take the winner and the world will be ours!"

"..." His minion crossed his arms.

"What do you mean I'm being unnecessarily vague about our plan? You know what it is, don't you? Why do I need to flat out state what our plan is over and over and over again?"

"..."

"Good point. I'd better call Ebony and have her set the hotel scheme up..." He tried to reach for a cell phone, but his fingers instead met a Rattata trap. He began to shake his fingers quickly, trying to shake the trap off of him. "Gah! Stupid flippin' Rattata traps!"

"..."

"I will NOT buy more light bulbs! Ebony kept giving me hell about how "Lihgttt balbzzz r 4 prepz!11!" I still don't know why she needs to pronounce the ones when she exclaims!"

"..."

"Just get the butter, will you?"


Meanwhile, at the I Haz Cheezbuger Stadium...


All sixteen contestants stood side by side in the middle of the stadium. Standing in front of them was the announcer for the whole thing, Lance the former champion. The stadium looked relatively normal. The ground beneath them was dirt, with the usual chalk drawings used to draw the fields lines. The seats were all cushioned and looked like they came from a movie theater. There stood four crystalline towers in the four corners of the stadium. All sorts of people were sitting in the seats, watching the opening ceremony.

"All of you are here today because of your love of Pokémon. And starting tomorrow, you will begin your battles against each other. But first, you must rest and think of strategies! I will root for all of you!" He announced enthusiastically.

Of course, not a one of them was paying any attention whatsoever.

Sunny was without her sister and her "Baby-Puppy", which depressed her.

Mikey was once again checking Dakota out, much to the his chagrin.

Angel was sipping some "imported soda" from his flask while Ember was playing her guitar to the rhythm of a Britney Spears song.

Lacete was looking at herself in the mirror.

Gingersnap stared of into space.

Mathias played with his bucky balls. (Still don't know what that is.)

Nathan was spitting spit balls at Canus and Cloud.

Fred was writing very dirty fanfiction with his laptop.

Trista was reading Fred's dirty fanfiction on her cell phone.

Suzana listened to "Barney the Dinosaur"'s theme in G-major on her I-pod.

Ken was talking on his Xtransciever with his would be girlfriend.

Marcus was somehow able to sleep while standing.

"Um, Hello?" Lance waved his hand. "Anyone listening?" Nope. No one was. Lance face palmed. "Oh, Arceus! I used to be the champion! Now I'm stuck babysitting these morons!"

"I'm actually a woman!" Lance shouted in the vain hope of catching the contestants attention. And no one payed attention still. Lance sighed and pulled a bull horn out of his back pocket. He held it front of him and pushed the trigger, releasing a loud sound that caught the attention of the contestants.

"Are you all listening? Good," Lance said with a triumphant smile on his face. "Now, I would like to introduce you to the woman who is sponsoring this entire tournament! Miss Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way, the founder of Goff Corp!" Lance motioned to a a young woman in Gothic clothing who was standing behind him.

She walked out in front of the contestants, and with a hand on her hip, said, "Hi my name is Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way and I have long ebony black hair (that's how I got my name) with purple streaks and red tips that reaches my mid-back and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like Amy Lee I'm not related to Gerard Way but I wish I was because he's a major fucking hottie. I'm a vampire but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale white skin. and-"

A few contestants began whispering among themselves.

Canus held his ears. "My Arceus! I can somehow hear the bad selling of her words," He whispered to Gingersnap, who stared at the mega-sue in confused awe. "Why is she describing her looks to us?" Dakota asked Mikey, who shrugged.

Angel almost choked on his "imported soda", while Ember tried to play her guitar loud enough to drown Ebony's ramblings out.

Ebony's face went red, and screeched in an unearthly pitch, "PREPZ!111111!11!" This got everyone to shut up and stare at the poorly conceived fan character.

Ebony cleared her throat. "ANEWAYZ! I'm also a witch, and I go to a magic school called Hogwarts in England where I'm in the seventh year (I'm seventeen). I'm a goth (in case you couldn't tell) and I wear mostly black. I love Hot Topic and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow."

Lance stared at the Mary Sue in confusion, trying to make heads and tails of why she just said that. "Anyway," Lance began awkwardly, "Okay..." and then he shook his head. "Well, everyone, If you would follow this gentleman to the Censored Hotel, you can get situated in your rooms."

A young man accompanied by a Gardevoir then came from behind them. The expression on the boys face was monotone. His hair was completely covered by a hat that resembled an Umbreon, a black tank top, black jeans, and red sandals. He was kinda on the short side. He didn't say a word as he motioned for the contestants to follow him.


At the Censored Hotel...


The Censored Hotel was just like it sounded like. It was one giant black bar with the word "Censored" in white running down it.

They followed the young man into the lobby of the hotel, which looked like a generic hotel lobby, and thus, I don't feel like I should describe it in depth.

The boy went to the front desk, and returned a moment later with sixteen room keys. After he handed a key to reach contestant, a voice echoed inside their heads, saying, 'Here are your room keys, everyone. They should have you room numbers printed on them. Now, a dinner has been arranged at six at the hotels restaurant.'

Cloud grabbed his head and groaned. He, and the others felt an intruding, pinching sensation in their brains. "Dafuq is going on?"

Suzana screeched. "The voices are back in my head!"

'I must apologize. You see, I am mute,' The young man gestured to himself. 'And thus, I use my Gardevoir to communicate via telepathy.'

"Dude! It feels like you touched me inappropriately with you brain!" Nathan groaned, rubbing his temples.

'I apologize. Now, I have other matters to attend to. I trust that you can find your rooms,' And with that the young man bowed and left the hotel, leaving the contestants to their own devices.


Fred immediately walked up closely behind Lacete and breathed heavily. Lacete looked over cautiously and said in a creeped out voice, "Dude, I'm twelve! I know that I'm a beautiful goddess and all... but you're gross!"

Fred giggled creepily. "You're a loli..."

Ember, reaching her boiling point, said to Angel, "Ange, remember when I said I was going to stab that nerd in the crotch? Well, I need the knife you keep hidden in your back pocket."

"No need," Lacete said, just before she turned and kneed Fred in the groin. "I don't need to be saved by a wannabe rock star."

"AM NOT!" Ember said, rolling up hers sleeves. She tackled Lacate and began to pull on her hair.


For one reason or another everyone ignored this, and chatted amongst themselves.

Sari and N managed to catch up to Sunny, and they began talking.

"So, what was up with that Enoby-whatsherface, anyway?" Sari asked.

Sunny shrugged. "I dunno. She's a weirdo, that's for sure." She spoke as if she had room to judge.

Trista hastily walked up to the trio and poked N lightly in the face. "Um... Is this a bishounen?"

"Yep!" Sunny said smugly.

"He's... so pretty! Where did you find him?"

"He fell out of the sky."

N raised a finger to correct Sunny. 'Actually, I crashed my Reshiram. Speaking of which, where-"

"He fell out of the sky,' Sunny reiterated, this time in a more menacing tone.

N squeaked in fear.

"So," Nathan began as he slung an arm over Mathias. "You look like the kind of guy who would pull some wicked pranks. With that being said, want to go stink bomb the entire hotel?"

Mathias' mind was blown. He already made a friend who would actually be fun! He grinned and said, "What are we waiting for?"


Dakota had just about had it. Mikey kept staring at him, and at this point, he was very uncomfortable.

"Okay! Dude, why do you keep staring at me?"

"Well... You're very attractive..." Mikey, looked down at his feet and blushed.

Dakota was about to say something, but stopped before anything came out of his mouth. That was probably the nicest thing anyone has every said to him. And come to think of it, the only thing bothering him was the staring. And Mikey WAS pretty cute...

Just then, Suzana came and shoved Dakota to the floor. She then yelled, "No Shonen Ai! This is crack fanfiction, bitch!" She turned to Mikey and asked in an irritated voice, "Good Arceus, man! Don't you realize that the Author doesn't have time for developing romance?

"Sorry..."

"Sorry doesn't cut it! The author can't write something serious, or his brain will explode!"


Angel finally decided to stop drinking long enough to pull Ember off of Lacete. "Lady dude, you've got to control your temper! I can't keep you from getting hurt all the time!"

"She keeps saying that I'm not a rock star! I totally am!"

"No, you're not. That's why you came here, remember? To show off your guitar skills on TV?"

"LIAR!"

Angel sighed and did a face palm.


Later, at the restaurant...


The restaurant itself was more or less the typical fancy stereotype you would expect, with pretty cyrstal chandeliers, white tables cloths and such. The constants (and Sunny's posse) all sat down at a rather long table that was large enough to seat them all. (Redundancy is redundant) Now, I'm pretty sure that none of you want to know what's on the menu, right? It's just food. Fancy food that the tourney is paying for.

Ahem, now onto the point!

As they all waited for food, an ominous person who was ominous and redundant watched them from afar. He looked to the Pokémon by his side, and pointed at them. The floating creature understood it's mission, and floated towards the unsuspecting people.


"Damn, woman! I didn't know you could stuff that much bread in you mouth!" Nathan exclaimed in awe at Suzanas' "talent". "How'd ja do that?"

"Ancient ninja secret," Suzana said casually.

Just then, a floating Pokémon that looked vaguely like a fetus came up to the table.

"Whose that Pokémon?" everyone but N asked in unison.

"It's... Musharna!" N declared. "Wait... We're in Kanto aren't we? Musharna's aren't indegionous to this region!"

Before anyone could say anything else, Musharna cried, releasing a pinkish mist onto our "heroes"...


A/N: Ha! I managed to get it out before weeks end! Anyway, I apologize if I offended anyone.

And I promise, next chapter, the WILL be a battle! Also, Ebony belongs to the author of "My Immortal", not me!

Shonen Ai= boy love

Bishonen= pretty boy

Just in case you were wondering...

Next Time: Ember VS Nathan!

Please review!
