The time has finally come for Orihime to compete in the Ultimate Talent Star. She was reunited with Rangiku and Momo and met a new competitor named Yumichika. She's seen she's been given tough opponents, but if she wants to win, she can't back down and she can't be afraid.

Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Walking down this endless highway
With nothing but my friends beside me
We'll never give in, we'll never rest
Advanced Battle is the ultimate test
From the earth, the land
The sea and sky
They can never win, but they sure can try
Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Pokémon
(Advanced Battle!)
Oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm undefeatable
From the stars and the ancient past
They come to play, but they'll never last
Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Pokémon
(Advanced Battle!)
Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm undefeatable
Oh oh oh
(Advanced Battle!)
I'm unbeatable

(Orihime's voice) Passion of the Showings

The first round of the Ultimate Talent Star is still going on with there being a few other competitors. Ichigo was able to make it in time and found Rukia and Chad.

"There you are. What took you so long?" Rukia said.

"It was that Weavile again. It just won't stop messing with me." Ichigo said.

"Maybe it likes you." Chad suggested.

"Let's talk about that later." Rukia said. "I think Orihime's turn is coming up." All eyes were on the field for the next contestant.

"Next, we have the lovely and beautiful Orihime." Varon said and Orihime came out with her friends believing she'll do well.

"Solrok, Sylveon, and Roselia, it's time!" Orihime said as she was using three pokemon at once.

"Wow! She's going with three of them. This should be an interesting one." Ichigo said.

"Solorkc, Solar Beam. Sylveon, Fairy Wind." Orihime said. Solrock rose in the air and was building up energy. Sylveon generated the sparkling wind that was flowing through the entire field. Roselia danced around with wind. Solrock used the energy generated and had act like a spotlight for Roselia. Sylveon stretched out her ribbons and wrapped them around Roselia and lifted Roselia around for Roselia to dance in the air.

"Such grace and finesse." Varon said.

"Let's wrap it up. Sylveon, Fairy Wind. Roselia, Magical Leaf. Solrock, Gyro Ball." Orihime said. Sylveon and Roselia unleashed their attacks straight up as a twister. Solrock spun around with its attack going and when the other two attacks hit, ripples of sparkles scattered through the field. All four of them bowed down and ended their performance. Everyone loved it.

"What an amazing showing that was." Varon said. "However, we still need to see what our judges think of it." All of them looked at the score and she was worried what she would get until it stopped. "Eighty-six."

"That doesn't seem so bad." Ichigo said.

"You're right. She could still make it." Rukia said.

…

Orihime

Orihime went back to the waiting room, but she still didn't seem happy. She was hoping to get the same score as one of her other rivals. She was afraid of not making it when the scores get lower and lower.

"Orihime, you did great." Rangiku said.

"I hope so." Orihime said. "I want to be able to make it to the battle stage."

"You need to quit worrying so much. If you keep believing you'll make it, you will. After all, you believed you would make it here and you did." Rangiku said.

"She's right." Momo said. "You worry too much. Just show some confidence." Orihime appreciated they were helping her out despite that they were rivals.

"That was the last performer." Varon said. "We will now show the fortunate thirty-two who will be moving on." All of them looked on the screen and saw the photos come up one by one. Yumichika made it. Soon, Rangiku's photo came up and so did Momo. It wasn't looking good for Orihime until she saw her picture appeared.

"I'm in!" Orihime said.

"I told you, you had nothing to worry about." Momo said.

"Now, we will randomly pair our competitors to see who will be battling who?" Varon said. The pictures were coming up differently to show who is battling. Orihime was surprised to see that her opponent was….Momo.

"We're battling each other already?!" Orihime said.

"We should have known that this was going to happen." Momo said. "Let there be no hard feelings and let's do our best." Orihime didn't like she was going against a friend already, but she had to accept it and fight on.

"Yeah." Orihime said.

…

The Battlefield

"The time has come for the battle stage of the Ultimate Talent Star." Varon said. "Instead of having one-on-one battles, they're all double battles. That means double the action, double the effort, and double the power." Battles went on where some won and some lost. "Now it's time for our next battle where we have Orihime going against Momo." The two of them took their positions and were ready to battle.

"Good luck, Orihime." Ichigo said.

"We know our girl is going to do great." Rukia said.

"Weavile!" Weavile showed up again and jumped on Ichigo's shoulder.

"Weavile? Not again." Chad said.

"I don't have time for your games." Ichigo said. "This battle is too important for me to miss." Weavile was curious and decided to watch.

"Solrock and Roseila, let's go!" Orihime said.

"Solrock!"

"Roselia!"

"Flareon and Magmar, it's your time to shine." Momo said.

"Flareon!"

"Magmar!"

"So Momo has a Magmar. She's got some serious fire power and that's a problem for Roselia." Ichigo said.

"But Solrock should be able to handle it just fine." Rukia said.

"Let's start out with a double Flamethrower attack." Momo said. Both Flareon and Magmar unleashed the fire attack and they were both coming fast.

"Solrock use Gyro Ball to deflect them." Orihime said. Solrock spun around and deflected the flames.

"What an ingenious use of a steel-type move against a fire-type attack." Varon said.

"Roselia use Poison Sting." Orihime said. Roselia jumped up and shot the poisonous needles.

"Dodge it." Momo said and the two moved out of the way. "Flareon use Shadow Ball on Solrock. Magmar use Fire Punch on Roselia." Flareon shot the dark orb and hit Solrock. Magmar gathered fire around its fist and hit Roselia with a powerful attack.

"Momo makes a powerful counter. Can they go on?" Varon said. Both of them took hard hits, but they tried to get back up.

"That's it. Don't give up." Orihime said.

…

The Waiting Room

Rangiku watched the battle go on and she was secretly routing for Orihime to win since she wants the chance to face Orihime as well.

"So Orihime's the one you told me about." Yumichika said as he walked over to Rangiku.

"Yeah. When I first took her on, she had a lot of potential." Rangiku said.

"She does appear to be in a lot of trouble." Yumichika said. "I wonder how she's going to get herself out of this one."

…

The Battle

"Now use Clear Smog, Magmar." Momo said. Magmar unleashed a breath of white smoke and both Solrock and Roselia got caught in it and were being damaged. "Now use Brick Break and attack high. Flareon, you use Flare Blitz and attack low." Magmar jumped up to attack and Flareon was surrounded by a bright blue flame.

"Not good!" Chad said.

"This could be it!" Rukia said as they all thought this was the end of the battle.

"Solrock, you use Psychic. Have Magmar crash into Flareon." Orihime said. Solrock was able to use the power of its mind and grabbed Magmar with it. Solrock tossed Magmar into Flareon and stopped the attack.

"What a brilliant comeback by Orihime." Varon said.

"Roselia, let's slow them down with Stun Spore." Orihime said. Roselia unleashed the spores and both of them got caught in it making their bodies going numb.

"This battle seems like it's just getting, but the passion I see with these two burn as bright as fire." Varon said. "I can't wait to see who will come out on top."

"Roselia use Magical Leaf. Solrock use Gyro Ball." Orihime said. Roselia unleashed the leaves and Solrock spun around and used the Magical Leaf to gain power.

"Try to dodge it." Momo said. Magmar was able to move out of the way, but Flareon couldn't and Solrock slammed against Flareon and took Flareon down.

"Flareon is down. That means if Orihime takes down Magmar, she'll win the battle." Varon said.

"I'm not going down without a fight. Magmar use Fire Punch on Roselia." Momo said. Magmar charged at Roselia with its flaming fist.

"Roselia, try and stop Magmar with Poison Sting." Orihime said. Roselia tried stopping Magmar with that attack, but Magmar kept going and gave Roselia a strong hit and took Roselia out as well.

"Momo has even it up. Roselia is no longer able to battle. We're down to a one-on-one battle." Varon said.

"You can do it." Rukia cheered.

"Keep battling!" Ichigo said.

"Magmar use Clear Smog." Momo said. Magmar was about to attack, but the effects of Stun Spore stopped it.

"Now's our chance. Solrock use Psychic." Orihime said. Solrock used it's psychic power and lifted Magmar off the ground. Magmar was tossed into the wall and Momo was afraid that was the end for Magmar. She was right as Magmar was unconscious.

"Magmar is no longer able to battle. That means Orihime wins." Varon said.

"Yes! We won." Orihime said. "Thank you so much, Solrock." Solrock was happy for the win as well. Momo was upset she lost, but also happy that Orihime won.

"That's our girl!" Ichigo cheered with Absol and Weavile happy about it as well. Out of nowhere, Weavile grabbed Ichigo's mega ring again and ran off. "That's it, Weavile." Ichigo got up and went after him with Rukia and Chad going after them. Weavile ran out of the stadium with all of them following. "Enough, Weavile."

"Weavile!" Weavile tossed the ring back to Ichigo and it looked ready for a battle.

"So you're finally getting serious. Let's do this." Ichigo said and Absol was ready for a battle. "Absol use Night Slash." Absol charged right at Weavile, but Weavile used Agility and moved out of the way. Weavile appeared behind Absol and was using Fury Swipes on him. The battle caught the attention of some people.

"Agility and Fury Swipes? That Weavile has got skill." Rukia said.

"Absol use Night Slash again." Ichigo said. Absol tried to attack, but Weavile jumped up and dodged it. Weavile was about to use his Ice Shard attack. "Absol use Swords Dance." Weavile attacked, but Absol generated the swords and stopped the attack and raised power. "Now use Razor Wind."

"Absol!" Absol unleashed the attack and Weavile got hit hard from the attack.

"Go, pokeball!" Ichigo tossed a pokeball and hit Weavile with it with Weavile going inside. It shook around and everyone wondered if he was going to catch it. The pokeball dinged and Weavile was officially Ichigo's. "Weavile, welcome to the group."

….

The Waiting Room

After all the battling, the day was almost over. Orihime met up with the others and was saying how great she was.

"Looks like a bunch of wins today. I get in the second round and Ichigo has a new Weavile." Orihime said.

"You should be proud of yourself, Orihime." Ichigo said.

"He's right. All your training has paid off so far." Rukia said.

"Now, before we go, we'll show the matches for the second round." Varon announced. All of them looked at the screen to see the matches and revealed Orihime was going against….Rangiku.

"Rangiku?! Already?!" Orihime said.

"She helped you out in your first talent star." Chad said.

"This is your chance to show just how far you have come." Rukia said.

"We know you'll win." Ichigo said. Orihime felt much better knowing her friends believed in her as she's going to face her toughest battle yet.

Orihime has been doing well so far, but the battle is far from over. As Orihime braces herself to face her toughest rival, just how will she prevail? You'll have to stay tune to find your answers.
