Chapter #5
Jubilife City , filled with people, excitement and adventure. Shaun and Furizaa had just got to Jubilife City. Furizaa was jumped about her first Pokemon Contest. They were headed for the Contest Hall. That was where Furizaa would get her license to be a Pokemon Coordinator.
"I can't wait to be in the contest!" Furizaa exclaimed with a huge smile on her face. "I will finally be able to show off my Pokemon!"
"Have you figured out what you will do for the Performance Round?" Shaun asked with a questionable gesture on his face.
"Yes I have," Furizaa replied eagerly. "Since the contest is tomorrow, I will have an extra day to practice it. Piplup in the Performance Round and Eevee in the Battle Round."
They finally made it to the Contest Hall. But as they walked in, Shaun saw a very surprising surprise…
"Ash, Brock, and Dawn!" Shaun exclaimed with a surprised grin on his face. "What are you doing here?"
"I am going to compete in the contest," Dawn said.
"Hey Shaun, who are they?" Furizaa asked questionably.
"Oh yeah, I haven't introduced you. " Shaun said embarrassed. "This is Dawn, Brock, and Ash. And this is Furizaa."
They all said hello to each other.
"Dawn is also a Pokemon Coordinator. This is going to be her first contest too." Shaun added.
"Nice to meet you Dawn, I hope we both try our best to win." Furizaa said with a friendly voice.
"You can count on that!" Dawn said confidently.
The next day…
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen to our Jubilife City Pokemon contest!" Lillian, the Contest Announcer, said excitedly. "Please enjoy our rounds of Performances and Battles! Our first Coordinator up is Dawn!"
Dawn ran out of a door and onto the contest stage.
"Come on out, Piplup!" Dawn exclaimed. "Use Bubble Beam!"
Bubbles flew into the air on the stage.
"Now use Peck and pop them all!"
All the bubbles popped and created a glittery rain.
"How amazing and beautiful" Lillian exclaimed with love-filled eyes! "What a beautiful combination of attacks. Let's see what the judges think about this Performance…
The score given was 8.5/10
"That will be a hard score to beat. Next up is Florence." Lillian announced.
Dawn came into the room with all the Coordinators waiting their turn.
"That was amazing!" Furizaa said to Dawn as she greeted her.
"Thanks. To tell the truth, I was pretty nervous out there." Dawn replied.
"It didn't look th-, I am up next. I gotta go. Wish me luck!" Furizaa said as she ran out of the room.
"I will!" Dawn yelled to her.
"And our final contestant, Furizaa!" Lillian announced.
"Come on out, Piplup!" Furizaa yelled out as she threw her PokeBall.
"Use Whirl Pool!"
Piplup charged up and let go a huge whirl pool.
"Now use Bubble Beam!"
The Bubble Beam mixed into the whirl pool. Now, the Whirl Pool was a two layers of Bubbles spinning and water spinning.
"Amazing! This combination is a magnificent display of two liquid elements formed together. Let's see the score- 8/10!"
Furizaa waved to the audience as she ran back into the room.
"You were great," Dawn said to her as she walked in.
"Thanks, I was also pretty nervous." Furizaa said back to her.
"Ok, let's see the final 8 contestants who qualified for the 2nd stage." The TV Screen said.
"Here are the last 8 contestants,"
Ding!(Person) Ding!(Person) Ding!(Dawn)
"Yes! I made it!" Dawn yelled excitedly
Ding!(Person) Ding!(Person) Ding!(Person) Ding!(Person)
"Oh no!" Shaun exclaimed from the stands. "Furizaa might not make it!"
Shaun, Ash, Brock, Dawn and Furizaa all looked up at the TV Screen. They were all filled with worry and hope. All the other Coordinators felt the same way as the stadium got quiet with so many people anxious to see who would be the last person to be chosen as one of the last 8 Coordinators to pass into the battle round. Furizaa was probably the most scared. Since this was her first contest, she did not want to lose on the second round. Furizaa was starting to lose all hope in it. Piplup and Eevee were out of their PokeBalls, also watching the screen. They felt all of the nervousness that Furizaa felt right now. Everyone was getting very anxious.
"And the 8th Coordinator is…"
