with the curtain raised. evelyn stood atop of the stage as a spotlight would come to fall upon her. wearing an off the shoulder gown with a slit in the leg side. she would come to welcome the many that have gathered today in person and those who watch from the comfort of their home. "with all that's transpired, i would like to thank the many who have done their part to help build our region back up." [break][break]

all of this couldn't have been possible without the assistance of dahlia goode, those of the silph company, and many other resources gathered. "and let's give a back round of applause to the heroes that have once again saved this region." the crowd, recognizing their efforts, screamed and cheered, "without them whose to say what would be in store for our future?" once more the crowd cheered, "and on behalf of the league, we'd like to give the following a big shoutout for their efforts in the war: kim cole-essam, Stormy Silph, LILLIAN GLASS, Balder Schwartz, cait alfric, Raziel Beckett, skyler dross, Sénon Game, Billi Marsh, Alexei Ivanov, June Fair, Noelle Lane, and Selena Desmarais!" with their appraisal received, it was time to start the show.

[break][break]

with the start of the FIRST ROUND, the contestants will be PEROFRMING WITH ONE POKEMON. each of YOU MUST ROLL, you are ALLOWED TO USE A SALAC BERRY FOR REROLL. you have been given your hint of the contests theme, now all that's left is to see you make it come to life to the best of your ability!

It was time.

Another chapter of life, another attempt at doing things differently. Wren was not a contest person, but she knew the best way to show people she had improved was to do this. She could handle it, however nervous she may be. With a deep breath and a 'good luck' to Billi as she passed him, it was time to take the stage. Dressed in an orange-yellow patterned kimono with her hair done up with flashy traditional Johto head ornaments... she looked the picture of a goddess (Tatsuta-hime). Or rather, someone from long ago times. She let the audience decide.

She shuffled onto stage to the roar of the crowd. Her eyes closed, she would release her chosen Pokemon; Phoenix the Pidgeot. She burst out of her Pokeball in a flash of light, like her namesakes legend come to life. The whole point was to incorporate one of her favorite legendary Pokemon; Ho-oh. The use of Sunny Day made a ball of fire behind the Pidgeot like the rising sun. The bird flapped its wings, sending a toned down Heat Wave across the sky stage. The flash of fire was a lovely combo, especially when it began to disappear and send flickers of sparkling light into the audience.

It was almost akin to falling leaves or fireflies in the midst of autumn. Whether they went ooh or aw was beyond Wren. The young woman had her eyes closed throughout the whole thing, focusing on the subtle movements of her Pidgeot above her in the festival's sky. She didn't let the audience influence how she felt. They had done good the first round. Once the performance was over, she would walk off stage with her Pokemon doing a loop in the air, following.

wearing warm colors to get himself psyched up kazimir made his way onto the stage to the sound of people's cheers as he twirled the pokeball of his chosen partner around on his finger before throwing it out onto the stage. from within the ball the seal on it broke open, showering the stage is small maple leaves as his raichu treuno made his debut in front of the crowd. many would see that it wasn't just a normal raichu, not even an alolan one, but instead one wearing a costume reminiscent of a sawsbuck in autumn as it twirled around on its foot, each spin shaking loose a few tiny leaves off of the branches that were its ears.
[break][break]
as it spun more and more showed up as it used double team to create a small grove of tree wearing raichus who all lined up one another to pose for the audience. as they did their tails begin to glow with the light of electro balls as they raise them up behind their heads, the light shining through the leaves and branches of their costumes to give them a shimmering effect like the crack of dawn approaching to wake up the day. as they did they continued to dance, the shadows stretching over the crowd dancing with them before the copies brought their lightning orbs together to explode in a shower of yellow sparkles that blanketed the stage as the raichu gave a bow.

Rex wasn't one to talk about the beauty of autumn. In his opinion, it was cold, dreary, and bright. All it led to was even colder months. There was one thing he knew about it, tough. It was the month farmers went to work and dug up shit, right? Harvest season! [break][break]

Plus, in all honesty, Rex didn't have the money to look all pretty like everybody else. So when he sauntered out, straw hat on head and in tattered clothing, he could almost giggle. Here he was being cheap, and he was gonna win too! He tossed One out as he walked, smiling at the crowd with bared teeth as he streched out and One was unleashed. A scarecrow and bird. [break][break]

One hopped around the man excitedly, like some gargantuan crow truly afraid of this "scarecrow". Still, there was some control to it, One didn't go wild unless Rex told it too, after all. The moment One got behind Rex, Ancientpower was launched. Rocky protrusions launched to the ground in neat little piles...as neat as One could manage. Still, the imagery was obvious as One flew forward with a triumphant cry, leaving Rex the scarecrow in the field for a moment. It was a harvest field. [break][break]

And it was over, One swooping down to grab Rex by the shoulders, carrying him off stage as he smiled like he already won. He knew it was great, after all, he showed the only great part of autumn. Food. [break][break]

vanessa agapov, littleroot's first runner-up, surprises petalburg with yet another attempt to reclaim the crown she thinks she rightfully deserves. it is her first time reappearing in the crowd after she vanishes in its chaos.[break][break]

the drag legend struts down the platform with her fall fashion, face beaming and hands waving to an exhilirated crowd. her golden florges-inspired dress flows down her knees, swaying as her legs alternate in dragging her bulky figure across the stage. what follows her is the sight of her flapple, hustling its wings to keep afloat behind her trainer.[break][break]

“HAVE YOU MISSED ME, PETALBURG?” the lady croaks, the deep voice failing to conceal the masculinity beneath the lady figure (not that she wants to, though).[break][break]

eve the flapple complements with a burst of bullet seeds followed by a spray of acid, pressuring the plantlings to rupture like grassy fireworks.[break][break]

after all, they said the theme for this contest is autumn. what speaks more of fall than falling leaves caused by an apple dragon?[break][break]

Ribombee (Shield Dust): Powder | Moonblast | Pollen Puff | Draining Kiss | Quiver Dance | Aromatherapy

[break][break]

[ THEME ]

[break][break]

Garbed in a glittering orange dress that flowed behind her like a river of AUTUMN leaves, Adelaide entered the stage with carefully placed steps alongside her Ribombee escort. The smooth jazz they'd chosen for their performance echoed throughout the contest hall sweetly as the pair began their QUIVER DANCE. A sway here. A pivot and a spin. The trainer matched her pokémon's movements perfectly while it showered the stage with glittering orbs of red, yellow, and orange. They erupted into the sky soundlessly with each twirl it made, before gently drifting back down towards the earth below.[break][break]

[break][break]

The dance, in the meantime, continued with great momentum. SHIELD DUST erupted out from the Ribombee's flickering wings in beautiful bursts now as well, covering the stage floor and billowing off of it like cumulus clouds with each step the pink-haired belle made. The tail of her long dress helped sweep this sparkling yellow dust, too, even going as far as occasionally gracing the audience in the front rows with a wave of it.[break][break]

Just before it seemed like the two would be lost in a haze of warm color, however, Mesquite summoned a soft breeze (AROMATHERAPY) that would scatter his ephemeral orbs of color out towards the audience. They carried with them the sweet scent of cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and sandalwood as they drifted over their heads and descended. Those who reached out to touch them would find them to be incorporeal. Entranced by these scents and the beautiful light show, the audience gasped with awe.[break][break]

But, just as all things, it would all come to an end before long.

[break][break]

The orbs of autumn color slowly faded from existence. The scents, too, dissipated into nothing. All that remained was the dust that covered the stage floor. Though it certainly didn't shine as brightly as the moments when it had first come in. Adelaide and Mesquite, on the other hand, stood at the center in pose. As the music came to a close, the goddess-like beauty held her dainty hands to the air as she looked up. Her palm had been poised to act as a platform for her Ribombee.[break][break]

And, upon this platform, Mesquite would end their performance with a MOONBLAST that would surround the pair like the beam of a UFO's light. This blast of bright lunar energy would suffice to sweep the stage clean of all its yellow shield dust, blowing it across the entire audience as the little scarved bug took a bow upon Adelaide's hand. Though covered in what was essentially glitter, the crowd cheered and applauded.[break]

The lights dimmed, but for the next contestant, they did not turn back on. Not even when her name was announced, not even when an insectoid shape could be faintly seen crossing the hall and taking its place in the center of the glassy stage, round and dark as a moonless pond.

And then a ripple passed across it. A ring of darkness, traced imperceptibly fast by a spinning claw. Then again. The NIGHT SLASH traveled out to the edges of the stage, washing and winking away the last vestiges of light, until the hall was completely dark.

Chryssa’s whisper, amplified, resonated from the speakers. “By day golden, by dusk gray. What is autumn, but the dying breath of summer?”

The air seemed to grow cooler. Perhaps it was the absence of light. Perhaps it was the girl’s wispy, reverent tone, as soft as secrets.

“Listen. Look with your ears.”

A hush fell. At first, there seemed to be nothing. If one didn’t listen, fixated on visual beauty, they would only see a faint, mirage-like shimmer from the center of the stage.

But then a single note would seem to drift by, almost imperceptibly, and from it hummed the unmistakable sounds of cricketsong.

All across the audience, the phenomenon continued as scraps, wisps of sound played and then dissipated, sang and then faded, from every direction. Despite there being only one Kricketune playing in the darkness, for a few moments the tapestry of SING made it seem as though hundreds filled the Contest Hall. Their voices rang out like bells, and were swiftly silenced.

Because the power of SING was so diffused, its effect, too, was reduced. The show of sound was like a memory, a dreamlike trance— a lament to the end of sunny days, and foreshadowing to winter.

As the crowd was at its most transfixed, the lights began to fade back to life and the audience was momentarily surprised by the sheer number of visible, paper-thin red and orange notes hovering among them, drifting like dead leaves. They streamed from the center of the stage, where Laina the Kricketune was cloaked in a dome of PROTECT, muffling her audial performance. With the tips of her claws, she had poked small holes in the translucent shield, allowing a controlled number of bell cricket calls to escape in all directions.

As the notes faded, so did the lament, until only the Kricketune was left on stage, a last, lonely chirrrrp dying in the hollow bell of her body.

And then, quiet.

He gave an audible gulp.

This was the first Pokemon Contest that Josh had participated in, in years. And he'd never won one. The first was a couple's contest with his wife, Izumi. A duo contest that despite their best efforts, they had come up short. The same had happened in his single debut. Close... But no cigar. And now here he was, a little older, a little less young... And now he was trying this again. The Ranger wanted to help people recover from what the war had done, so he had decided to play his part in entertaining them. That's what this was. And yet... He felt nervous. How could he keep up with all of that? All that had just been thrown before him? He looked silly, in this grey suit with an orange shirt, about to embarrass himself in front of all these people...

Well, all he could do was try.

The spotlight fell upon him.

And just like that, it was gone.

The one-time movie star, the man once atop the world, shown through in his eyes. He raised a hand.

"PETALBURG!"

His bellowing cry shone through with electricity, energy, accompanied by a walk as he paced across the stage that showered with swagger. His partly-spiked hair was quickly slicked back as he shot the crowd a cheeky, wily grin.

"Are you ready... For the show.. Of YOUR lifetime? Because I'm not planning to leave this joint until YOU are ENTERTAINED!"

It was like a complete transformation as he swung his heel, holding out his arms to the crowd. He was like a completely different person. And up above a spotlight shone on a figure, and when that light shone, the room was filled with vivid rainbows as the Pokemon's wings shone and reflected them off the lights. Little scales had been attached to the Dragonite's wings of differing colors, illuminating the room in bright colors of all kinds when the light shone upon it. Gawain (Dragonite) was Ho-Oh. The legendary Pokemon, bringer of life.

And in these moments, Josh could see he'd brought life to their eyes.

A combination of Dragon Dance, Dragon Rush and Agility soon followed as the Dragonite went from moving gracefully through the skies, to barreling through, hard to see, hard to find... Much like the legend itself. It appeared, it brought life and happiness and color wherever it came... And then it disappeared.

But as it zoomed about, only narrowly seen at points, something began to rain down that the Dragonite had been holding. The leaves of autumn. One by one, they fell in batches in its wake, and when the Dragonite, or Ho-Oh, disappeared for the final time...

The spotlight fell back on Josh. The leaves had all fallen atop him, coating his suit until there was nothing but orange. Dead leaves, dull colors... Death.

And then a whisper in the air. A whoosh, a presence. The shine of rainbows one more time.

The leaves had been blown off, scattering to the winds. Leaving him with a batch of scales in his hands that the Dragonite had passed to him in secret. He managed to fashion them into something that vaguely resembled the Rainbow Wing.

And he held it aloft.

The beauty contest had begun and everyone was in full spring trying to represent the Autumn season, but people took it in a variety of ways, and BIlli was challenged to be unique, and try to be special. At the moment he had to look over the other contestants watching as they gave espectacular movements and gave crowd stopping performances. Many of the people loved it and applauded, but everyone was different! Heck there was even a drag queen living their best life.

Naturally the only way Billi could be on the stage in front of people, performing, and living his best fantasy was as a majestic drag queen. Certainly he wasn’t the only one on that stage but he desired so much to have a wall between him and his anxiety. Social media wasn’t like real life, and he had no problem doing it for work, rather his talents, that was something else.

Billi came out across the stage as a blonde, his hair full of volume and flowing down past his shoulders, the breast plate large, and cinched within an inch of his life, and padded for days. His body covered in a long form fitting, green shades, feather dress that dragged behind him, making a statement as his Oriocorio followed quickly behind, TEETER DANCING as the music began to play.

Lights dimmed as Billi moved slowly across the stage, his lips expelling the soft voice that echoed Lordes Young and Beautiful. Oriocori moves around swiftly, it’s wings moving as it becomes a FEATHER DANCE causing it’s red and orange feathers to swirl around Billi, dragging them across the floor, blending in with his dress. As the apex of his voice hit the impactful note, HURRICANE was quickly wiped up as the bird took center stage, the lights changing to a dim orange, the feathers lifting up and swirling around Billi, sending out the near golden feathers towards the audience. The dress lifted up in the wind and the green feathers became to rip off the dress and flew off into the air around him, leaving nothing but the golden, red, and orange feathers in an open front dress, bellowing out behind him in the wind, making the dress appear as a Ho-Oh’s wingspan.

Oscar had never participated in a contest before. He was a fighter not a performer, so the concept never appealed to him before now. Yet when he saw the possible prizes for winning, he could not help but make an attempt. After weeks of grueling practice and planning, he came up with a routine to enter with.

Oscar stepped out onto the arena, his heart beating so fast it nearly ripped itself from his arteries. He was dressed in a black suit, and he had used makeup to appear somehow paler with dark rings under his eyes. Held in one hand was a violin and bow, a hint at what was to come. Upon reaching the center of the arena, he would wait for the applause of the audience to die down before raising a hand and snapping his fingers.

The lights dimmed, leaving a single spotlight illuminating Oscar. He raised the violin to his neck, prepared the bow, and began to play a haunting waltz. Those lessons from his youth were finally paying off. As the waltz reached the end of its first segment, Oscar ripped the bow across the strings. This created a distorted note that would be the cue to shit off the spotlight.

The arena was concealed in darkness, the silence mixing with it to creat an air of foreboding uneasiness. Then without warning, the violin would return. With each note a flame would illuminate at the center of the arena, four in total with the fifth fully illuminating the form of a shiny Chandelure. The waltz continued at a quicker pace, fhe chandelure swaying with it. With each bounce of its stalks, one of its flames would hop away only to be quickly replaced. The orange Will-o-Wisps continued their creation until there were ten in total. Those ten began to spin around the chandelure, following its movements and creating basic patterns.

The waltz would soon reach a crescendo, and at its peak the central head-flame of the spector would erupt. The massive Inferno illuminated the arena and drowned out the feeble light of the wisps. As the flame died down the arena would once again be cast into darkness, revealing that the wisps had immensely increased in number. Seemingly hundreds now floated around the arena, dancing to the music to create spectral shapes and hypnotic patterns.

As the waltz became more frantic, the wisps would circle around the chandelure as it began to charge something in between its front most stalks. One by one the wisps dove into this space, disappearing into the ever widening Shadow Ball. As the last wisp dove into the orb, the waltz would reach a harrowing climax. Just as it seemed like the waltz was turning into a horrific mix of screaming strings, the ball burst in a cascade of purple, blue, and red. The burst once again encased the arena in silence and darkness, with only a few moments passing before the arena lights were flicked on. The chandelure was gone.

Oscar stood to the side near the arena's exit, staying out of view the majority of the performance. He wasn't sure how the judges would receive his Halloween based performance, but hopefully they would think the color scheme fitting enough to earn a good rating. As Oscar turned to fully exit the arena, he would be met by Zule the chandelure. She did fantastically, which Oscar illustrated by stroking her dome-like head. Zule bowed, eager to receive praise from her master--no matter how small. With their performance done, they continued toward backstage.

kyle wasn't the type of person to participate in these events, but being able to support his friends was a good enough of an excuse to attempt his hand on this. he enters the stage, a manectric trotting beside him in rhythmic strides.

the elite four bows for the audience, and then the lights turn dark.

a large bolt of lightning appears to strike the center of the stage, where the manectric itself had fired off its own thunder. there's a terrifying cackle of sparks as it crashes and spreads into an electric terrain.

electricity on the ground reacts to where the manectric stands, lighting up the stage with dim lights from the floor instead of the ceiling. he hops from one spot to another with quick attack, emulating the erratic nature of flames with his discharge, where those would be the only spots with bright enough light to be noticed.

the explosive bursts of lightning weaken with every step of the manectric's dance as the stage gets darker with each moment. the loudness eventually calms as audience would notice fizzles on the ground. a drizzle from the manectric's rain dance sets droplets of water to the electric terrain, with each instance giving a softer glow.

it continues until the manectric's discharge becomes unnoticeable. it ends in the middle of the stage, where it releases a soulful howl. the manectric's LED disco floor now shows tranquility in comparison to the earlier electric-type attacks.

everything is calm in the end, besides the image of the howling manectric in the rain, spotlighted by the brighter glow of electric terrain underneath it. the performance ends, alongside with its interpretation of ho-oh's story of the burned tower.

This time, Stormy's gone and done her research. She's spent time and effort having a beautiful red dress made in the likeness of the Goddess Tatsuta-Hime in the hopes that she might somewhat resemble her image. Dedicated makeup artists in her dressing room help her put the rest of her outfit together and, when she ultimately steps onto the stage, she looks radiant.[break][break]

Her dark hair is held back with a crown of leaves that she hopes resemble that of an Autumn-forme Sawsbuck. She had been running out of time to properly worry about it, but a quick once-over in the mirror brought her just the right amount of satisfaction. Stormy looked like something out of a picture book, some sort of faerie goddess that had come out of the woodwork to begin an autumn festival.[break][break]

Of course, being one of the last (or the last entirely) to perform, Stormy prays that her delay in the dressing room will be made up tenfold by what she has in mind. [break][break]

The theme had mentioned Ho-oh, and, while just the mere mention of the demonic false Ho-oh that had attacked her and forced her to jump into a volcano-- she had had the perfect idea to doll her Moltres up. Before the war, the legendary Moltres had undergone a temperature change. Its skin had turned from gold to red hot. While not orange like Ho-oh was, Stormy was proud enough of the smaller legendary bird that, after decorating the Pokemon with rainbow feathers. She has a package set at the base of the Pokemon's tail as well that, when heated up mid-flight, will produce the sparkling rendition of Ho-oh's trajectory.[break][break]

Hopefully.[break][break]

She had not tested this beforehand, so she was counting on lucky first try so she could fingergun herself later.[break][break]

Regardless, Stormy steps onto the stage calmly despite the rapid thump of her heartbeat. All eyes are on her as she makes her presence known, and she raises her hands just as Moltres soars into the stage-lights. It had arrived after her as it specifically chose to not linger in a Pokeball. It is dressed to look as much like Ho-oh as both Stormy could and the beast would allow. [break][break]

Together, they perform a sort of give and take dance, utilizing Moltres' agility to push and pull the falling leaves. If there is no shred of the prior sunny day used earlier, Moltres would ensure that it is renewed. [break][break]

Eventually, Stormy climbs between the Moltres' shoulders to fly alongside it. Her arms are outstretched as she guides Moltres across the crest of trees. She quite literally makes the entire area her stage, not just the uplifted platform given to her. She is here to take the audience's breath away, to ease their fears and their worries if only for a moment.[break][break]

Their finale is their spectacular Ho-oh representation. Moltres' flames, aided by Stormy's guiding fire-hands, set the sparkling rainbow fire powder aflame. They come for their final lap, their final dance, their final display, spreading sparkling, firework-like rainbow lights and sparklers across the audience in a similar fashion Ho-oh could set across the sky: or so she had read in lore. It wasn't like the false Ho-oh had done anything of the sort, other than destroy. She would be the beautiful side of Ho-oh's representation. It deserved better than to be shrouded in the doubt a careless wish had given it.[break][break]

Billi Marsh, now that's what i call a slay. oricorio's ability to gently shift your aesthetic into the next phase was very crisp. this was a strong performance, but we feel as though there could have been more. i feel as though, had you brought a sensu-style oricorio, there would have been a stronger presence from not just you but your pokemon as well. your costume seems to have overshadowed oricorio, and what we crave is a balance between both man and pokemon. you have a strong ability to exhibit grace and elegance that commands the attention of all in the room, but that power should be shared with your pokemon who should equally match that. i believe you have a great future ahead of you when it comes to coordinating, marsh. i know there's great potential in you.

wren rourke, that was a stunning performance your pidgeot poured its heart into. acting as a beacon of hope--a ray of light--it reminded us of the legendary phoenix, embracing the crowd with its warmth. sadly, i can't say the same for their trainer. as beautiful as you may look, there was no confidence found in your performance. it was a giveaway that you were a novice, you have talent and a long way to go wren. i hope to see more of you, but with a stronger resolve. in order for a pokemon to truly shine, the trainer must shine just as bright. being a coordinator is no different from a trainer. you can't turn away, all eyes are on you just as they are the pokemon. if you make it to the next round, i expect you to bring a stronger conviction and to shine as equally bright.

Rex Drago, what a interesting display. representing the totem of death and fear while simultaneously representing the opposite symbolism of hope and prosperity. a symbol of death carrying the reminder of the fear of starvation, only if the crows eat the harvest; on the other hand, we would prefer it serve more as a symbol of harvest and plenty. i think you would have earned more points by using an actual honchkrow, while also inciting more 'hope' into the performance rather than fear. perhaps if this were a halloween contest you'd have a stronger lead. this was definitely a fun performance, but we would like to see more out of your pokemon next time.

chryssa glasgow, when the kricketunes cry. it's a serenade that is released to serve that the end of summer is nigh, they are harbingers of autumn; heralds of warm, dry days ahead. a unique performance indeed, chryssa. it was as if, in someway, the season of autumn became personified. your creative choice was definitely an intriguing one, but i feel as though you could hhave given us more. regardless, good job, we hope to see more of you in the future.

Stormy Silph, the freedom found within your performance was strong. your representation of tatsuta-hime was also strong, you can thank your pokemon for that. it complimented you very well. i saw little to no hesitation in your performance either, like a goddess of autumn you held your head high as you soared over the audience. the rainbow trail you left behind was magnificent, alluring even. you did your homework and strongly stuck to the theme of the contest.

Kazimir Wynter, your raichu's costume is just adorable. the dance, the leaves, and the execution of double team really made the crowd cheer with glee. if i may be so forward, i think the crowd and i were expecting more of a ceremonial performance rather than the electric boogaloo. you have a strong asset in the art of entertainment, even the costume as well! you definitely have the foundation of being a coordinator, now it's time to work on that execution. if you keep at it and practice hard, you'll even give johto's top coordinator a run for their money. i hope to see more of you and your raichu in the future.

kyle lopez, another representation of ho-oh's history. it's said that when three pokemon perished in a tower found within the region of johto, the cause was due to a lightning strike. there, ho-oh had bestowed upon those three a second chance at life. your performance was strong, but i don't think the crowd can agree with the representation. as beautiful as it was, it felt as if you focused more on the disaster rather than the legendary itself. still, it was a strong performance nonetheless. though, for our hoenn residents at home, the meaning behind your performance may be a headscratcher.

Adelaide Whiteley, what a memorable performance, "the lady in autumn" is what i'd like to call it. it was beautiful, a stunning performance that executed a unison between coordinator and performer. while representing autumn's color, the glitter that scattered across the audience felt as if you and ribombee were bestowing some sort of blessing. the performance you and ribombee displayed showered us with a feeling of freedom, as if you were a vessel speaking and performing for ho-oh itself. marvelous display, adelaide, or should i say "lady of the autumn".

Valerio Dachev (vanessa), lady vanessa has returned to reclaim her chance at victory. sadly, lady vanessa, that may not be possible. this wasn't exactly your strongest performance, and we were hoping for more out of "the crimson princess". your confidence really makes your pokemon's performance stand out. although you're a crowd favorite, we would have liked to see more out of your pokemon's performance. you're no novice anymore lady vanessa, and we expect to see a performance that matches the confidence. we know you're better than this, crimson princess!

Josh Dragomir, to bring the creation of rainbow wing to life, as well as ho-oh's symbolic legend. you've truly done your research. i think it's best to say you succeeded in entertaining the crowd. those who are a resident of johto should be well aware of the inspiration behind this graceful performance. if i may be so bold, the performance would have been even stronger if you had done more; for instance, it's said that those who wield the rainbow wing are recognized as "the rainbow hero" and are allowed to challenge ho-oh himself. i understand you tried to keep dragonite hidden, but it would have been nice to see them fully emerge before you once the rainbow wing was given. nonetheless, this was a stellar performance. we hope to see more of you, mr. dragomir.
