(Menwhile With Ash, Brock and Dawn)
(The Night Before The Jubilife Contest)

During the night, Dawn couldn't get any sleep. Dawn just lay in her bed thinking of what might happen in the Jublife Contest. Dawn explained to her friends of what the old ribbon meant for her mother and all trainers went back to bed, preparing for what's coming to them tomorrow. The time had come, for her very first Pokémon Contest.

(Time Skip To The Next Day)
(In Necro's POV)

In the Jublife Contest Arena, a woman appeared with a microphone to introduce the Contest that was happening. "Greetings, people. And a warm welcome to th Coordinators and Contest fans! We are here for one reason. and that is to find out who will carry home the Jublife Contest Ribbon! We know that you have been waiting patientry, and now you are to be rewarded! We will be here on live of Jublife City and to all of the very cities here today!" The announcer named Marian announced...

In the waiting room where all Coordinators waited, Ash, Pikachu, and Dawn's Piplup were watching the TV screen above. Brock ran to Ash. "I can't find Dawn anywhere!" Brock explained.
I heard a boy say witch mead Me turn My head to watch as a boy with a Pikachu and a Piplup all grew stunned by this!

"What!? But, it's starting any minute! I'm gonna go look for her!" The boy with the two pokemon yelled before he ran around the Contest waiting area to find his friend.

(Meanwhile In The Dressing Room)

Dawn, however was struggling with her hair, trying to make a pigtail out of it!" Someone offering to help out. "I can help you with that!" The girl exclaimed.

"Oh! Thank you!" Dawn thanked. "Hey... Aren't you that girl with the Glameow from the other day?" Dawn then asked.

"Yes, I'm Zoey! Just like you, I'm a Pokémon Coordinator!" Zoey replied.

"Nice to meet you! I'm Dawn!" Dawn said

"The pleasure is all mine. So, is this your first Contest for you?" Zoey asked.

"How did you know?" Dawn asked.

"You really got the first time vibe." Zoey answered.

That made Dawn sweat-drop. "Did you enter any Contests recently?" Dawn asked.

"Yeah. Three Contests, and one ribbon." Zoey answered.

"Would it be alright if I see your ribbon?" Dawn asked. Zoey agreed, giving her a yellow Ribbon Case, where Dawn then saw a single ribbon in the center!

"I'll be looking forward for one of you on the finals!" Zoey chuckled. Dawn grew red by that.

"She's saying the finals already when this is our first Contest!" Dawn shrieked, hiding her face with her hands. Just as she ran around the corner, they met Ash!

"Hey Ash! what's wrong?" Dawn asked.

"Wrong? It's time for the first round!" Ash explained. The two nodded as they followed Ash to the waiting room.

"So now, let's introduce our three judges here for the Contest! Here they are!" Marian announced, gesturing to the three judges. "Introducing the member of the Judging Comittee and the Contest Director, Mr. Contesta!" Marian called.

Mr. Contesta took a step and smiled. "Thank you! I'm looking forward for the teamwork between the Coordinators and their Pokémon!" Mr. Contesta replied, making the crowd cheer harder.

"And heading to the President of the Pokémon Fan Club, Mr. Sukizo!" Marian called.

"Remarkable is the word! Thank you!" Mr. Sukizo exclaimed.

"And now finally, Jublife City's very own Nurse Joy!" Marian continued.

"When it comes to seeing all the splendid Pokémon, I can't wait!" Nurse Joy called.

"I think we can all relate to that! Oh! I almost forgot! The name is Marian, and I'll be your announcer for the Awarding Ceremonies! So, thank you all!" Marian announced, giving a wave.

She then ran to the center of the stage and announced the rounds. "And now, we present you the first round! It's where one by one Pokémon make their performance on stage! The purpose of this to see the Coordinators show their power and beauty of their Pokémon!" Marian explained.

At the waiting room, Ash, Dawn, meeting Brock. "Oh! You guys made it!" Brock called.

"I was having loads of trouble with My hair, until Zoey, the girl who found My choker yesterday helped me! but I wonder where she is now." Dawn explained while looking around.

"Just forget it, Dawn!" Ash said.

I heard the boy say the girl's name, hmm her names Dawn I wonder if she's in the contest too.

"And now, our first contestant here will be... Zoey!" Marian called. The curtain slowly raised, revealing Zoey!

"It's her! She's performing first!" Dawn gasped.

"Misdreavus, curtains up!" Zoey called. She threw her Capsule Ball, which opened with a smoke flowing out! A silhouette appeared in the smoke!

"Now, Double Team!" Zoey called. The silhouette made clones of itself! "That fog seems to be covering the mischief and elegant Misdreavus very well!" Marian commented.

"That's very mysterious!" Dawn replied.

"Does a Ghost Type Pokemon always go just like this?" Ash asked.

"Well, she seems to know what she's doing." Dawn commented. "It's like a show biz, hiding in a fog like that could show off for any kind of a Ghost type Pokemon!" Brock explained.

"Confuse Ray!" Zoey called.

As the smoke slowly vanished, all of the clones of Misdreavus glowed as they disappeared as they floated away towards different ways! The Misdreavus revealed itself! "Let Me just check it out." Dawn replied. "Misdreavus, the Screech Pokémon. Misdreavus loves to do mischiefs by pulling people's hairs, and shocking them." Dawn's Pokédex buzzed.

"Whoa. That sounds eerie." Brock replied.

"Use Shock Wave!" Zoey shouted. The Screech Pokémon sent waves of electricity in the air!

"What an Electric Attack!" Ash gasped with amazement.

"Pika!" Pikachu exclaimed.

"And it's not just for show, Zoey is also trying to show how powerful her Pokémon is!" Brock explained, looking at the powerful Shock Wave Attack.

Before the attack stopped as Misdreavus slowly landed in Zoey's left hand!

"It's very like a Misdreavus and Zoey are joined together! How electrifying!" Marian exclaimed. Everyone turned to the three judges who made their comments.

"Showing of her Pokémon in a silhouette is a great performance!" Mr. Contesta commented.

"And remarkable!" Mr. Sukizo stated.

"And dazzling to show her Misdreavus and its moves! That's first rate all the way!" Nurse Joy exclaimed.

"You don't hear Nurse Joy saying first rate all day! And when she does, it's raving! And next up..." Marian announced. More Coordinators performed. Some had Rapidash, Beautifly, even some Scyther, Buizel, and Bidoof! Marian made another announcement.

"And next up is... Jessilina!" Marina called. Jessie, who was disguised as a Coordinator came up on stage, waving to the audience!

"Thank you all! You're all so bright! Carnivine, side this up!" Jessilina called. The Grass Type Pokémon appeared with a heart coming out of the Capsule Ball!

"And it's Jessilina with a simple Carnivine!" Marian exclaimed.

Jessilina threw her big lollipop toward the air and ordered a Bullet Seed! Carnivine shot the lollipop, making some sparkles and shine! "And next up, it's a Bite!" Jessilina ordered. What happened next threw the four heroes off. The Grass Type Pokémon had bit onto Jessilina's head! She let out a painful soft scream, but low enough so nobody could hear.

"What a toothy finish! Jessilina's reaction seems positive and critical by the Bite Attack!" Marian commented. Painfully, Jessilina waved again with Carnivine to the audience to make sure that they know she was okay. At the waiting room, the heroes all sweat dropped from the impact.

"That's gotta hurt." Dawn muttered.

"On the neck that is... Geez..." Zoey sighed with disappointment.

"Yeah, but talk about dedication." Brcok replied. Just then, Marian called for Me to be next!

And with one thought in My head I left the waiting room...

Please dad I know that you're out there please just watch Me! believe in Me!

(Menwhile With Scout and Its In Scout's POV)

What am I even during here?
I thought as I watched a girl perform with a
Carnivine on the stage why did I even come to watch Necro in the first place?

Necro nodded as she ran for the Contest Arena. The curtains flew up as Necro threw a Capsule Ball! "Shinx, let's flash it all up!" Necro called. Lightning bolts came from the Capsule Ball as Shinx made a dramatic appearance!

"And here is Necro and Shinx, sparkling things up but hold on a minute that Shinx is shiny" Marian exclaimed.

"Shinx, start this up with Hidden Power!" Necro called. Shinx sent some small orbs of light into the sky! "Now, use Spark!" Necro yelled. Shinx passed threw all the lights, making her fur glow with sparkling lights!

"End it with Iron Tail!" Necro called. Shinx landed on her tail, springing up, and landed again on the ground with grace! At the waiting room, Dawn grew amazed as her eyes sparkled with light.

"Wow! That's gorgeous! I wish she could do that one more time!" Dawn squealed with delight. Brock looked at Dawn, then at the girl on stage and smiled.

"What a sparkling performance! Necro's Shinx has showed her graceful landing and jump with some sparkles on her fur from Spark and Hidden Power!" Marian commented.

"Wow! that was a special perform!" Ash replied.

"Pika." Pikachu agreed.

"Pipl!" Piplup exclaimed as his eyes sparkled, just like Dawn's.

"A marvelous combination for the twilights!" Mr. Contesta replied.

"Very rmarkable, indeed!" Mr. Sukizo stated.

"Delightful and also, first rate of all!" Nurse Joy giggled.

"There it is again, folks! First rate for Necro and her special colerd Shinx!" Marian announced.

The crowd cheer harder than before! Both Necro and Shinx bowed down as they swiftly left the arena.

She did very well, and her and Shinx have really been improving that from the time when they first showed Me this idea, which was a result of Me helping her own pokemon battle against one another.

(End Of Scout's POV)
(Time Skip Backstage)

Ash, Brock and Dawn all desided to go to the waiting room then coming into the room, they quickly spotted her sitting on a chair with her Shinx, they all walked over to her witch mead her look up with a simple smile. "Way to go, with your Shinx! That was very great!" Ash exclaimed.

(n Necro's POV)

As I entered the waiting room with Shinx in My arms, we were both greeted by Chimchar jumping towards Me and hugging My on the chest! "Chimchar..." Chimchar muttered,

while he tightening his hug on Me. "Hey, buddy. You liked it?" I asked My partner witch mead Chimchar node his head.

Suddenly as I sat there with My shiny Shinx, 3 people walked over to us making us both look up.

A boy with black hair and a Pikachu on his shoulder opened his mouth and spoke to us with a grin.
"Way to go, with your Shinx! That was very great!" Ash exclaimed.

"Umm thanks," I replied with a simple smile.

"Shinx!" Shinx purred from My lab..

"That was amazing, The way you performed, it was amazing!" The other boy stated with a smirk on his face.

"That was really amazing and was filled with so much spotlight." The girl said.

I blushed as he weakly smiled again. "Thanks, umm what's your names." I thanked the 3 of them it was so nice of them.

"Right I'm Ash and that's Brock and Dawn we're traveling together," the boy with the Pikachu now known to Me as Ash.

"I'm Necro and this is My partner Chimchar," I said.

Only seconds later did the call for the next person witch was Ash.

"And now we present the far away Pallet Town of the Kanto region, making his debut in Jublife City, say hi to Ash!" Marian announced.

"Okay, Aipom! I choose you!" Ash called before throwing his Star Capsule Ball!

Aipom appeared by the gathering of stars! "Use Swift, now!" Ash ordered. Aipom spun while using Swift! It collided with the other colorful stars, making showered of light!

"And Aipom makes an entrance with the dazzling Swift!" Marian commented.

"Okay, use Double Team!" Ash called. Aipom made clones of itself all over in the air! "Now, use then Focus Punch lets go!" Ash called. Aipom spun while defeating its clones with the Fighting Type move! "Way to go!" Ash commented.

"Wow! His Aipom banishes out its own double Team move with a powerful Focus Punch!" Marian exclaimed.

"Aipom, that was great!" Ash said to the Normal Type. The crowd cheered for Ash and Aipom loud as they can!

"A creative way to create a performance with two moves!" Mr. Contesta stated.

"Besides, remarkable!" Mr. Sukizo exclaimed.

"What a great way to show teamwork between a Pokémon and a Coordinator! And the way to use Double Team like that, it was like watching a battle, too!" Nurse Joy giggled.

Ash thanked the crowd for the cheering. "Whoa. Ash looked amazing out there! And to think this was his first Contest!" I gasped.

"Ash did looked at home right there!" Brock explained. Then, Brock turned to Dawn, who grew silent.

"Umm Dawn, is something wrong?" Brock asked. Dawn tensed before smiling.

"I was just amazed on how amazing Ash was!" Dawn explained.

"Ready, Dawn? so you're up next!" A man called out.

"Great! Thank you!" Dawn thanked.

"Make a great performance there for all of us, Dawn." I reminded.

"Looks like it's crunch time!" Brock joked. Dawn blushed and nodded. She ran to hear Zoey saying good luck to her! Dawn thanked Zoey and made her way to the arena.

(End Of Necro's POV)

"And now, for our final performance, we have a Coordinator who has come all the way from Twinleaf Town! It's Dawn!" Marian announced. The curtain rose as Dawn was revealed, only to be nervous to be in a crowd. Dawn knew that everybody is watching her, so she must make a great performance!

"Right! Piplup, spotlight!" Dawn called. Piplup appeared from the Bubble Capsule Ball, with bubbles flowing around him!

"Go use a Bubblebeam!" Dawn ordered. Piplup pushed the clear bubbles with the blue bubbles, floating in the air! "Now, use Peck!" Dawn yelled. Piplup used its stored energy to create a long Peck from yesterday!

"And her Piplup is putting a lot of energy in its beak!" Marian commented.

"Now, Piplup! Go!" Dawn called. Piplup rapidly peck the bubbles to pop the bubbles, creating sparkles of light! Piplup landed, with blue and clear lights sprinkling down on the stage!

"A beautiful way to speed and cuteness! It almost took Me off balance to see all of this!" Mr. Contesta complimented Dawn.

"And besides, remarkable!" Mr. Sukizo stated.

"Its very easy to see that Piplup's talent that I can say it was wonderful!" Nurse Joy exclaimed. Dawn sighed as she headed back to the waiting room, and meeting Ash, Necro, and Brock, with Pikachu and Chimchar!

"I made quite a performance, didn't I?" Dawn asked.

"Dawn! You were awesome out there!" Ash complimented.

"You looked as if you completely mastered your combo!" Brock exclaimed.

"And now, we jump to the conclusion, showing the results for the second round! Here are the 8 Coordinators making it to the second round, the Battle Round!" Marian announced. Everyone turned to the plasma screen where they will probably see their faces. It was time for the battle round..

So, with Dawn, Ash, Zoey, Necro, and Jessilina completing the first round, how will things go in the second round? Will the five of them all make it there? Only one can be victorious! and we'll find out who it is very soon!
