An exquisite fragrance filters in throughout the vicinity as a sweet wind picks up, heralding the graceful arrival of an elegant blonde woman and her Vivillon to the centre of the stage.

"Enchanté," the Kalosian says as she falls into a low curtsey mimicked by the winged Pokemon. "My name is Elisabeth Fiorelli. It is my singular pleasure to introduce you to my Vivillon, Petunia."



The florist smiles gently at her butterfly, who settles onto her outstretched hand to waft the soothing aroma of AROMATHERAPY throughout the premises.

Adorned in flowers with petals shimmering all the pale whites and blues of a cloud-strewn sky, both Pokemon and trainer appear almost celestial in their appearance; a curious marine colouring marks the Vivillon's unique pattern, while below her, the FEATHER CLOAK has been affixed to the butterfly's lower legs like the tail of a kite, stretching out behind her to flutter with each beat of her glossy wings.

"I am a florist by trade. And so, in many respects, it is the land that I tend to most in my gardens with little Petunia, who pollinates each flower so that it might blossom and flourish. Even so, nothing grows without the life-giving sun, or the nourishing water of rain."

Here Elisabeth pauses for a moment, allowing for her words to ring throughout the stage before she states solemnly, "Nothing that grows on earth does so without receiving the blessing of the sky."

Gentle piano notes cascade like trickling water around them, evoking a wistful melody as Petunia spins about her mistress with whirling ACROBATICS, dipping and diving about in mid-air while following an invisible current of wind.

The faint breeze that had been borne into existence by the Bug-type's AROMATHERAPY intensifies with each beat of her wings, a 'butterfly effect' rippling forth as Elisabeth's long skirts are teased into twirling about her -- as if Petunia seeks to coax her mistress into dancing with her.

Feminine laughter leaves Elisabeth's lips as she glances skyward at her mischievous Pokemon, who beams back at her with delight as she deigns to join the butterfly in spinning upon the stage.

"We often think that the sky is the domain of dragons and birds alone. We forget, I think, how much of what lies beneath our feet exists only by the grace of what shines down from above us. My little Petunia exists in that place, I find: a messenger between the earthly world and the heavens."

A glittering white light emanates from the Vivillon's form as Elisabeth speaks, radiant as any star as her dance quickens and gains momentum into a QUIVER DANCE. Starry pollen rains down from the butterfly as she soars higher above the stage, shedding glistening motes and flower petals that find purchase in the intricate pinions of the FEATHER CLOAK floating behind her.



The golden spores likewise fall like fairy dust upon the blonde Kalosian woman and her flower crown, after-images of the Vivillon lingering in the air to surround her with a veritable kaleidoscope of butterflies -- each winging skyward, drifting higher and higher towards the artificial sun of the spotlights above the stage.

One by one the lights begin to dim as Elisabeth prepares to depart, the illusionary Vivillon vanishing into the shadows with her: "We look forward to showing you such empyrean splendour."

Contest were not normally his cup of tea, so to speak. However when there was a mention that the winner could receive a badge, the burnt scarred man decided to give it another shot. After all, whats the worse that could happen. The last contest he attempted didn’t go so well, but at least he had a little experience under his belt now. Right?[break][break]

Crimson colored orbs flickered over the many people whom stood in the crowd, faces blending into one big mesh sea of flesh. He couldn’t help the hard lump that formed in his throat, gulping hard in an attempted to make it go away. It didn’t work. A feeling he never really felt before washed over him, sending his heart racing. Behind him, a low rumble echoed. The red serpent sensing the man’s tension.[break][break]

Maverick turned to his oddly colored gyarados, fighting the urge to laugh at the SEASHELL CROWN upon its head. “We should be up soon,” he mumbled, rough scarred man’s reached up to gingerly pat the beast on the head when he lowered to his level, “Don’t be nervous.” Seregon let out a growl like rumble in protest, returning to his natural pose. “I’m not nervous.” The sergeant let out another grumble in dejection. The man huffed.[break][break]

And just as the part finished their pre game talk, it was time for them to take center stage. He took in a deep breath, pushing away all his tension the best both of them moved into position. The lights dimmed, Maverick stood proud. His head high, expression flat, and arms folded over his chest. Seregon moved behind him, his massive stature towering over his masters. He let out low deep grumbles out of his mouth, filling the arena with angry thunderous growls in the temptation to make the audience feeling uneasy with danger.[break][break]

Suddenly, the red beast let out a mighty and loud ROAR. Screams and shrills of terror erupted from the crowed. The gyarodos body becomes surrounded in swirls of purple clouds of energy, spinning around several times. The DRAGON DANCE lights him up while sending Maverick into a silhouette before him. It is here when Maverick speaks to the crowd in a low, almost bored, tone.[break][break]

“Hello Hoenn. The name is Maverick, and this here is Sergeon.” The creature lets out another series of grumbled in his chest, predator gaze attempts to intimidate that crowd even further. “Hope you enjoy the show.” With that, the man bends at the waist in a farewell. He wasn’t much of a man for words and with him not being the contest type, it seemed rather fitting for him. But as the man bows to the crowd, Seregeon’s long tail became surrounded in swirling water. And when the AQUA TAIL was at its full peek, the creature wiggled its body to slam the tail right before his master. Water droplets was sent in all directions, raining down on stage. It was than that both of them vanished, leaving the crowd puzzled.
