HGSS: Johto Saga
Season 4, Opening: This Dream
Part 23
Building Coordinator Pace
Lyra comes across the line into Smith Town and yips.
"Time for me to get my first ribbon! This time, it will happen."
Lyra sprinted towards the Contest Hall to register for the contest.
After she did so, she came outside and sent out her Bayleef and Venomoth.
"With you two," she scrambled as the two came out, "are gonna do great! Bayleef, use Petal Dance in a spiral!" Bayleef bayed and a soft twister of petals gently whirled around the air above it. "Now, use Vine Whip!" Bayleef lashed at the petals, splitting them and showering the pokemon in pink petals.
"Venomoth, I'll use you in the battle portion, okay?"
"That may not be such a good idea! Venomoth can handle appeals much better than Bayleef can!" A feminine voice called from behind Lyra. Natalie appeared next to her, a blue pokemon striding beside her. "Well?"
Lyra thought it through. "I guess you're right...Oh, you're Natalie! You won the contest in Goldenrod City and got your...?"
"Second ribbon. Yeah, you're the one who didn't make it through to the finals...ah, Lyra?" Natalie observed.
"Yep. But, I expect to win this time!"
"Don't be so sure of that!" A male voice called from in front of Lyra. The boy that got second place, Jim, in the last contest appeared before them. "My team's all ready for this contest. We're taking it all the way this time!" He threw his fist out in anticipation. The three coordinators glared at each other, vicious smirks across their faces.
Finally, Lyra went back to training, and Natalie and Jim went inside to register.
That afternoon...
"Hello! I am Jillian, your host of the Smith Town Contest! Today, we expect to see amazing appeals by our coordinators, who are all striding to receive their coveted ribbons to participate in the Grand Festival!"
A couple of minutes of introduction, and Jim dashed onto stage. "Go, Ledian!"
He threw his pokeball and a bright red pokemon flew into the air.
"Okay, Ledian, time for Double Team!" Ledian created doubles of itself in a circle in the air. "Now, Comet Punch towards the center!" All of the Ledian's hands glowed white. After a second, they went into blurs and fired white booms into the center of them. They all collided and gathered a bright light in the center. They stopped, and the light erupted around them. "Now, Bug Buzz!" Within the light, all of the Ledian start to fly around and above and under each other around the light. Whence it clears, the real Ledian flips and all of the other ones disappear, the light shattering upon the real Ledian.
"Wonderful!" the judges sputtered in amazement.
Jim recalled his pokemon and ran off stage.
After 27 others, Natalie went up. She sent out her Stantler.
"Stantler, let's stun them with Confuse Ray!" Stantler let loose the ray of purple towards the ceiling. It deflected off of it. "Quick, use Zen Headbutt!" Stantler's head glowed blue and absorbed the energy. Its head glowed purple and blue fusion, and it waved it around, spreading the vibrant color.
"Marvelous!" Everyone bellowed.
As the 30th contestant, Lyra came out on stage. "Come on out, Venomoth!" Venomoth came out in a shower of stars. "Let's start with Stun Spore!" Venomoth shimmered and let loose the orange powder across the stage. "Now, Hidden Power!" Venomoth released balls of energy around the powder. The powder started to collect on the balls of energy. "Now, Confusion and twirl them around you!" Venomoth took control of them and started to make them dance around it while it span in circles slowly. "And to finish, Silver Wind!" Venomoth hovered above the energy and used its wind to blast them apart and throw dust everywhere, making Venomoth shimmer.
A few minutes later, backstage...
"And here we are, our finalists!" Jillian announced. Natalie came as first, followed by Jim as 5th...and in eighth...was Lyra!
"Yes!" Lyra hopped up and down and embraced Ethan. "I made it! Now, we have our next step towards taking that Smith Ribbon!"
In a couple of seconds, the matchups were made. Lyra was pitted against a girl in a blue dress with purple polka dots across it. She had used a Phanpy in the beginning.
"Well, I guess it's time for...Misdreavus!" The girl twirled and sent out a small ghost pokemon.
"Okay, Bayleef, let's take...the stage!" Lyra called. She sent out her large grass pokemon. The points were ready.
"Misdreavus, use Psybeam!" Misdreavus released a beam of psychic energy at Bayleef.
"Bayleef, use Light Screen!" A yellow box appeared around Bayleef and the energy collided and backfired off of it.
"Well, this makes it hard! Misdreavus, use Shock Wave!" Misdreavus released a wave of electricity at Bayleef. The screen deflected it.
"Bayleef, use Petal Dance!" Bayleef released pink petals sharply at Misdreavus. They struck it and curved upward. They settled and started to whirl around Misdreavus. "Whoa, perfect opportunity! Vine Whip!" Bayleef lashed out and the vines whipped across the petals and struck Misdreavus. It fell to the ground, and the girl lost half of her points.
"Misdreavus! Use Pain Split!" Misdreavus hovered again and its eyes shot out and bashed Bayleef. Misdreavus seemed to gain energy as Bayleef lost a bit. "Now we're a little more even!"
