However, she wasn't about to let her distaste for the rental grass type stop her from making it look beautiful in the contest. "'Unpopular Contest'....I should have known." she muttered as she learned of the goal. "Sunflora, jump and use Leaf Storm underneath yourself to launch yourself high into the air!" she commanded the sunflower.
The grass-type nodded in agreement before leaping into the air. Once it reached the maximum height, Sunflora threw its leave-like arms downward, creating a whirlwhind of glowing turqoise leaves underneath itself. The extra boost launched the grass-type high into the air, nearly to the ceiling of the room.
Azita was impressed at how high the Pokémon got and smiled. "Fall down. I'll tell you when to do the next attack." she said, as the Pokémon started to pick up speed while falling. Looking down beneath it, she saw the leaves were still glowing strong from the previous attack. Just then an idea sparked in her brain. Looking back up to the falling grass-type, she nodded. She smiled as it was reaching the height she wanted. "Finish off your fall with an Ingrain. Aim for the leaves while they still are glowing!"
The falling Pokémon made a confident sound as it realigned itself with its feet facing downward. Roots shot out. aiming for the leaves on the ground. The glowing leaves shattered into turqoise glitter as the Pokémon gracefully landed, and the roots retracted.

What the next point of the contest was, was clear to Azita as she focused on the balloon. It seemed to float in such a way that seemed like it was taunting her and the Pokémon. "We can't let this balloon get in our way. Let's make this look amazing as our first routine." she said, patting the Sunflora on the head. "Let's go. Start off by charging in and using Encore!" she said loudly, so the Pokémon could hear her.
Sunflora did not hesitate as it started rushing towards the balloon, with its leave-arms, gaining a white glow. As it got closer, it shot a blast of light torwards the balloon. Once it hit the balloon, the balloon seemed to sparkle and shine at a slightly lower luminosity than the attack that hit it.
Azita was amazed at how the attack made the balloon be the center of attention just enough for the attack planned in her mind. Noticing a small platform near the balloon for others attempts at the contest, she smiled. "Use the platform as a stepping stone to jump over the balloon and use Bullet Seed!" she said, with a her stomach lurching over doubts that it would look the way she wants.
Sunflora heard the command and quickly changed directions towards the platform. After taking a giant leap onto it with one foot firmly planted, it backflipped and twisted its body so it was facing the balloon. Once it was perfectly above the balloon, bright green bullet-like seeds shot out of Sunflora's mouth, hitting the balloon. The attack popped the floating opponent, creating a fireworks like reaction, with the Encore attack ending. The grass-type landed, regaining its foothold on the floor.

She smiled, as her opinion of the Pokémon is changing a little bit. "All we have left is the free reign routine. Let's finish this strong!" she said, pointing to the dummy. "Use Sunny Day to take advantage of everything you can!" she yelled, while her rental pokemon's face started glowing. Soon, the room was filled with intense light, like on a bright summer day.
Sunflora seemed to be extra energized by the newly formed pseudo-sunlight. Rushing around the dummy in front of it, it seemed like the grass-type was trying to figure out which way would be the best way to attack it. After not coming up anything, the sunflower Pokémon looked back at Azita for an idea.
"Uh...okay..." she said, looking around for a nice place to use an attack from to make it perfect for a coordinator. After not finding anything special, she sighed. "Use Solarbeam, and do it in any way you can!" Azita yelled, pointing towards the dummy.
Sunflora started running towards the Dummy, before throwing her leafy arms downward, and shot a massive light green beam down. The Solarbeam seemed to lift the sunflower Pokémon elegantly right behind the fighting dummy.
The dummy fell over while Azita ran over to Sunflora. She knelt down and gave the grass-type a high-five...or at least a high-arm and smiled. "You aren't as bad as I thought you would be." she said, as they both walked out of the arena. Azita felt like she could do well in the contest.

ROUTINE ONE: APPEAL. RENTAL CATERPIE level 50 • shield dust • female tackle, bug bite, air cutter, psybeam tailwind, safeguard, string shot, hardenrenae straightened his 'special occasions' bowtie, and smoothed down the icky, weird hairs on his caterpie. as much as he had a lot of distaste for bug-type Pokémon and this one in particular, he guessed the outcome of this unorthodox contest was to discover oneself and rewrite one’s likes and dislikes. renae, however, had a feeling that he wasn’t going to appreciate caterpies any more after this, but oh well. he had spent hours before his turn polishing the shiny skin of the caterpie and adding gloss to her antennae so they would be shinier. she looked beautiful, even if he said so himself. they had run over their contest plans backstage, but renae was letting the nerves get to him: he ran his hands through his hair. as much as he hated bugs, he had grown to like this caterpie: she was determined to win and graceful, which renae appreciated. calling out to her with a strong voice, despite the shakes in his hands, renae advised, “ safeguard, then a psybeam, please.” the caterpie nodded, closing her eyes as she summoned the psychic energy to create a wall of light around her. it glittered rainbows like the aurora borealis: renae was even shocked as to its beauty. from within the wall suddenly came a thin beam of more rainbow-coloured light, which undulated gently across the stage to peter out near the stage-left curtain. making a bow, renae strode across, picked up his caterpie, and the two exited with a flourish. caterpie used safeguard and psybeam! word count: two hundred and fifty words. ROUTINE TWO: MISSION. RENTAL CATERPIE level 50 • shield dust • female tackle, bug bite, air cutter, psybeam tailwind, safeguard, string shot, hardenin the centre of stage, surrounded by empty space, hovered a balloon. at first, it seemed that his poor caterpie - barely inches tall - would never reach her mission: but renae's mind was ticking over and he thought he had reached the solution. placing the caterpie on the ground gingerly, he patted some of her wayward hairs back flat and fixed up her antennae so they would be perfectly straight, before telling her exactly what he required of her. “ see that balloon?” he prompted, pointing with one lanky finger. he was whispering so the judges could not hear him, murmuring into the bug-type’s ears – or whatever one called them. the caterpie laid her bright bug eyes onto it, and nodded, looking back up at her new, erstwhile trainer. “ we need to pop it. and i know exactly how.” as the caterpie wriggled forward on her many, squirming red legs, she got close to the balloon and looked back for instruction. “ tailwind! then give me an air cutter!” renae called out, in his strongest voice. the caterpie nodded, determined. tasting the air with her feelers, she launched herself from the ground using all the potential energy in her body, catching an updraught coming from an open door behind her and riding the wind like a bird. small arms outstretched, she performed a somersault in the air before coming inches from the balloon. now came the most important part: renae chewed his knuckles in anguish. the caterpie rolled herself into a ball, then stretched out rapidly, sharp claws on the ends of her feet slashing the thin latex of the balloon and bursting it soundly. a loud noise echoed through the contest hall, and renae smiled from ear to ear, congratulating himself on his success. two down, one to go. caterpie used tailwind and air cutter!word count: two hundred and ninety-nine words. ROUTINE THREE: FREESTYLE. RENTAL CATERPIE level 50 • shield dust • female tackle, bug bite, air cutter, psybeam tailwind, safeguard, string shot, hardenrenae looked down at the dummy that had been provided, somewhat disappointed. well, he supposed that in choosing a small pokemon, he had received a small dummy, but it still wouldn’t look as impressive as if, say, a charizard were beating up a seven-foot tall manikin. then again, why ever would a charizard be unpopular? looking down at the caterpie he had grown slightly fond of through the past two routines, he knelt down to get close enough to whisper before they went on stage. “ we can do this. only one more to go!” standing back up, co-ordinator and Pokémon waltzed on stage, making a bow before setting up for their third and final appeal. renae nodded at the caterpie by his feet, who continued without him, her legs undulating in a snakelike way to get her across the stage. renae called out, “ harden and tackle!” and then clenched his fists by his side, waiting for the moment to come. the caterpie sat very still, creating a cocoon-like outer shell that hardened up the surface of her skin and made it far more impenetrable. then, taking a few steps back, she charged forward in a reckless, full-bodied tackle, knocking the dummy a full three feet away from where it had originally stood. the hardness of her skin had given her the extra edge she needed, and also allowed her to attack without feeling too much pain: it had meant she threw everything into it without being scared. the dummy bounced once and then spun on the floor, and the caterpie turned to the cheering crowd and bowed. renae strode out and bowed as well, relishing the attention he was getting, then held up his caterpie for all to see. maybe he would end up missing the little bug. maybe. caterpie used harden and tackle! word count: two hundred and ninety-nine words.

[STYLE=border-bottom: 5px solid #FFC7FF;] [/style] ----------------- APPEAL POST ----------------
So Arthur did have an idea of what he needed to do, and adjusted his school uniform just a tad. The black tie only adding to the uniform itself with it's plethora of spunk, and the fact he looked natural like this. The stunfisk lay on the ground beside him unnoticed as he coolly ran a hand through his hair precisely at the exact same time the stunfisk seemed to blow a bubble into the air. One wrong move and it was game over, so he went with his battle plan just then saying "Alright, you know what to do, dazzle them by using a classy mud sport to soil yourself up and spray mud everywhere. Don't let that go out just yet, and use your amazing thunderbolt ability to light it up so the mud sticks to you to sparkle." Arthur thought it was a great idea, but it probably wasn't even half as creative as the other ideas out there. The stunfisk didn't hesitate as it let up the mud into the air, and flopped it's body rather fluently to the sound of Arthur's words. Attempting to get all the mud up into the air it could after secreting some of it so that this attack would work. Suddenly a shock of electricity jolted out from the stunfisk alighting all of the particles of mud in the air making a sparkly display of glitter. As it landed, Arthur decided to bow. 250 words Level: 50 shock wave - thunderbolt - bounce - muddy water - pain split - mud sport - spite - camouflage Used mud sport and thunderbolt------------------------- MISSION POST ------------------------ The stunfisk was ready, and Arthur nodded as they both stared at the balloon just sitting a few feet off the ground. Putting a victory sign up into the air, and dramatically doing the moonwalk for a minute just to get the tension going. "Alright, stunfisk, we got this," he said to the pokemon, but only hoped he could pull this off. There was only one chance to impress the audience with this maneuver, and it was definitely very risky to his Pokémon. There was a few move sets he could have used, but this seemed like a rather viable option. Suddenly the stunfisk started to prop itself up on it's left fin, and suddenly started to spin. Just creating a whirlwind of what lay on the ground in the surrounding area. That was when Arthur shouted out a command, "Camouflage", a very interesting tactic as the Pokémon suddenly developed a wooden like color. Blending in with the stage, and suddenly flopped onto it's back. This rendered the stunfisk useless, until it literally flopped over again, and used the flop to actually gain some momentum. Within a few minutes, the stunfisk let it's body hit the ground so it ricocheted into the air. That was when a bold maneuver was used, and the stunfisk blew a shot of electricity into the air. Just a small spark to indicate it was quite fine that high up. Fins extended and the stunfisk had done a complete 180 in the air even as it then used it's full body to land on the balloon. Taking it down with the stunfisk, and using the impact from the land to make it pop. The stunfisk blew a kiss towards the audience. 300 words Level: 50 shock wave - thunderbolt - bounce - muddy water - pain split - mud sport - spite - camouflage Used camouflage and bounce-------------------------------------- FREESTYLE POST ---------------------------------- Right, then, he and the stunfisk had to prove to everyone that they were indeed the best. "Alright, bud, we're going to do things a little differently this time," he commented slowly. Deciding to get more into it with this style of battle. "Alright, so to do the maximum voltage, we need some spite at that doll. Stare at it with murderous intent stunfisk!" Arthur commanded.
Stunfisk's eyes glowed with vicious intent waving his fins angrily at it. "Now, try to flop victoriously over to give it a high-five to feign your loyalty to yourself," he told the stunfisk. The Pokémon was rather obedient considering the bonding time he had with it, but he could at least get used to this. An attempt was heard as the stunfisk suddenly lifted it's front up to literally worm it's way towards the dummy sitting that far away, but was doing it so that he looked like it was part of how he moved in general. Fluently and gracefully without any hindrances to stop him.
Arthur watched the stunfisk literally attemp to worm his way past, but at the last second pushed himself to flop sideways along side the doll with his belly grazing just the tip. "Okay, NOW, use muddy water to douse the dreams out of that doll, and to make him stop talking back!" Arthur said dramatically. The stunfisk suddenly shot a rather deliciously disgusting flood of water straight at the doll as he turned his head forty-five degrees as his body lurched to a halt on the ground unscathed by the water. Arthur then nodded to his stunfisk and waved a white flag in surrender as he left the stage just then with the stunfisk bouncing alongside him.

Still, he wanted to have some fun with this and he had managed to come up with some good appeals for his pokemon. The trainer and pokemon met eye to eye and Fate smiled.
The bibarel walked onto the stage with a bit of a waddle, not the most graceful, but when he stopped in the center, the pokemon had a more serious look on her face. Sitting there, nothing happened at first, but the power inside the pokemon was growing. Barely visible at first, a blue glow emanated from the normal type, becoming brighter and brighter, her fur shimmering. The superpower gave her unparalleled strength and control, both physical and mental. The pokemon's large tail fanned behind him and tapped the ground beneath her, summoning up some water. With each hit, droplets of water splashed upwards, condensing from the air around the pokemon. It took every ounce of concentration from the pokemon to hold the water drops still, floating all around in a liquid dome. With every additional slap of the tail, water accumulated, forming a shimmery barrier, the blue light reflecting off the individual droplets. To end the appeal, the bibarel closed her eyes and expelled the water outwards, sprinkling the nearby area as the light around her faded away. ::bibarel:: Superpower & Water Sport

The trainer stood behind the bibarel like a coach behind his fighter. He wanted to pet her head or her shoulder to tell her good luck, but he wasn't too sure if it would be too welcome. Tentatively, his fingers ghosted the bibarel's shoulder, making the pokemon turn to look at him. The neutral expression turned into one of content before she was called on stage, the balloon set up for her. "Like we practiced," said Fate, his fists close to his chest as he watched, hoping their routine was going to work. They had only practiced it a couple of times, but the bibarel seemed comfortable with it, near the end.
The pokemon started off on one side and used a thunderwave attack, rings of golden static electricity surging from her body. Immediately, she curled into a ball and rolled through the thunderwave, surrounding herself with the electric attack. Keeping up the rollout, she was now surrounded by a the thunderwave, like the rings of saturn, tracking her movements. The pokemon approached the balloon, circling the area a few time to charge it full of static electricity. She would only have a single chance to pull this off and Fate's was trying not to bite his nails over it. The circles the bibarel did, still curled onto herself, became tighter and tighter until she was practically under the ballon. Unfurling, the pokemon felt a bit dizzy and her fur stuck out in all directions due to the static. The bibarel then jumped, using her tail as leverage, and the thunderwave was transfered onto the balloon, surrounding the stretched rubber and pulling it in every directions.
The pokemon landed and waited. A few seconds later, the static had stretched the rubber to its limits and popped the balloon. Mission accomplished. ::bibarel:: Thunderwave & Rollout

Fate couldn't care less about the static that still clung to the bibarel, hugging the pokemon excitedly. They had done it! One more appeal and it was over! The trainer only then realized that he had completely breached and destroyed the pokemon's personal space. Jumping back a bit, he smiled sheepishly at the pokemon. The bibarel didn't seem to fazed about it, though, smiling instead at the hair on Fate's hair, now sticking up just a bit. The dummy had been set up, though, and it was time for her to show all the other pokemon around here that she was not weak.
The dummy was slightly off centered and the bibarel stood opposite to it, staring at it for a few seconds. The stage was quiet, apart from the words out of Fate's mouth: "Defense Curl! Hyper Fang!" The choice of attacks were a bit weird, as the trainer had chosen to use a defensive attack when this round was all about the offence. Regardless, the pokemon curled into a ball, completely brown in colour apart from the dark tail, highlighting the interesting markings in her tail. Carefully, she rolled back onto her tail, getting ready to spring forward with great speed. Like a spring, she uncurled her tail and shot herself forward, her fangs glowing white and much larger than normal. With a single move, she sunk her fangs into the dummy, dealing as much damage as she could. This would teach all of those pokemon to look down on her.
She clung onto the dummy until Fate signalled for the lights to close, ending the appeal. The last image that would be burned in the audience's mind was that of a bibarel, viciously sinking her fang into the replica, clinging onto her prey. ::bibarel:: Defense Curl & Hyper Fang

" this thing, pretty? god help me. " she groaned, before bending down and nudging the sleeping pokemon.

" she called, throwing her hands up and trying to make herself as presentable as she could. the slakoth, however was stumbling around and looking drowsy. however she did manage to shake herself out, letting her fur look at least somewhat decent. thankfully scarlette washed her thoroughly before the big day, so she looked clean. above all else. the slakoth opened her eyes as wide as she could then, before throwing her own arms into the air and letting out a glimmering encore, before clapping in tune with her partner. the sparkling lights of her attack were shimmering on her pelt, then scattered when the next move came into view.
counter came quickly, having twirled around, swinging her arms around her and trying to prance around like a ballerina as best she could. hey, at least scarlette looked generally proud. ::slakoth:: L (50) -- female truant flail, counter, covet, incinerate, amnesia, encore, yawn, swagger used encore and counter tagged // || notes // 250 words, APPEAL

" the groan of hopelessness seeped through her mouth as she leaned back in a sign of unease. the slakoth just turned to look at her trainer, before slumping to the ground when her previous counter had been finished. she had a stupidly contagious smile on her face, that scarlette was forced to look away from. her thoughts were clouded with the idea of making her pokemon look good while popping a balloon. the main struggle was 'could the slakoth even get at the balloon' that worried her. could she use covet the grab the balloon? then incinerate it when the slakoth had it in her hands.
that always looked cool, at least to scarlette it did. with a satisfied huff, the redhead nodded to the slakoth. " alright, gorgeous. lets use covet on that balloon. grab it right out of the air. and baby, look good doing it! " she called. the slakoth turned around clumsily and gave a pout, however did manage to get up and around. then she shuffled her feet and managed to throw herself into the air, which surprised and astonished scarlette. then, with groping hands the slakoth grabbed the balloon and brought it down to the arena floor again. then she smiled broadly, a goofy look on her face. " alright, now incinerate it, again, look sexy! "
with that said, the slakoth nodded vigorously and clumsily lifted on one foot, back leg arched backwards, arm pointed behind her in a ballerina-like fashion. the whole appearance of it looked baffling, seeing as the pokemon was off balance. but she then blew a gust of fire, consuming the balloon in fire and making it pop. she laughed then, falling backwards and bellowing. scarlette just shook her head and pulled her hair back. ::slakoth:: L (50) -- female truant flail, counter, covet, incinerate, amnesia, encore, yawn, swagger used covet and incinerate tagged // || notes // 299 words, MISSION

" alright, hot stuff. lets show 'em how it's done. amnesia and flail! " she smiled then, a little bit encouragingly. the sloth pokemon laughed heartily, getting onto her feet and then sat back on her butt accidentally, then held her head and rubbed it curiously. the move made her kind of ditsy, and if in battle had raised raised her defense. she'd cleared her mind and now felt carefree. she smiled widely, before making sure to get to her feet.
by then, she had something thought out. more or less felt out, seeing as her arms flailed about her body as she threw herself at the dummy put into the arena. she cackled against her will, before her feet pumped out and aimed to kick the dummy, whereas her fists crashed around near the dummy's head. whether or not the flailing, wild slakoth had landed any decent hits, or any at all was besides the point. all that mattered was that the contest was finished, and scarlette was calling out to her partner.
" c'mere! " was basically what she said. her partner bounded over to her, before leaping into her arms and wrapping her arms around scarlette's neck. she let out a wheeze, before patting the slakoth's back. " well played, gorgeous.

round one - the appeal
Nick and Vanilluxe had been bonding, preparing for this day. It was time to rock the contest. Nick was dressed up, with a white button up and black trousers - he had something in store. The trainer winked as the Snowstorm Pokémon went to center stage. "Water Pulse." Nick ordered as he put some cool sunglasses. Vanilluxe floated upward and released a beautiful, spiraling jet of water to the stage. The water flowed smoothly, as it immediately started to turn. Each turn another second of time, as the spiral was widening. It was now noticeable that the Vanilluxe was trying to form some shape. The water would indeed form a cone, the tip emitting from Vanilluxe's spout. "Acid Armor!" The ice-type would become transparent as his body completely dispersed and broke into orbs. The orbs joined the water making the water purlse look like a theme park water ride. Eventually the first molecular orb of Vanilluxe would hit the ground. The school of molecules behind, would do the same, each planting onto the prior molecule. They connected oh so effortlessly, as if they belonged together like a puzzle. The water would collapse around the orbs, who now could now be clearly seen as Vanilluxe. "Long live the Snow King!" Nick said as he threw the shades over the eyes of the Pokemon, who broke himself down, to build himself back. What theatrics, what suspense, what a show.
word count - 250 vanilluxe used water pulse. followed by acid armor.
round two - the target
"Ready SK, you got everything?" Nick asked, as if there was time to make any last minute adjustments. He would give a small push to the Vanilluxe who felt a little confident after his first performance. The balloon was center stage and only a few feet off the ground. "SK, up!" The Vanilluxe looked to the trainer, and was reassured by a nod. He ascended above the balloon, floating high off the ground near the ceiling. The Snowstorm Pokémon had a lot of space. "Mist." Nick calmly called. The ice cream shaped Pokémon began to release a thickening mist. The mist would come layer after layer, more than you would see in a normal battle. It was as if Vanilluxe was creating a sky. Seconds would past, and Nick simply watched with intensity as the mist was almost complete. "Stop." He called, ceasing the mist-ifying production. The mist above was so thick that even Vanilluxe had seemingly vanished. What was cool though was the mist remained separate from the audience and lower stage, so everything there was in clear view - more specifically the balloon. Nick began to point as a silhoutte could be seen in the mist. "Wait is that a bird?" The shadow would move again. "No a plane?" Again the shadow would readjust its position. "No it's -" A dramatic pause would follow as the Vanilluxe burst from the mist darting for the balloon. He would stop mid-air and use the icy cone, from his bottom to charge an attack. The mirror shot would create a shining bullet as it pierced the balloon and exploded into a brilliant light showcasing the polished body of the Vanilluxe. "It was the Snow King." Nick said hopefully getting that name circulating, and keeping watchers anxious of the next set.
word count - 299 vanilluxe used mist. followed by mirror shot.
round three - the battle
"This is our final set, all power." Vanilluxe would close his eyes as they opened his eyes were a burning red. "Hail!" Nick called raising his right hand to the sky. A dark hue of smoke emitted from the straw shape on the head of Vanilluxe as a hailstorm struck the doll. "Everyone give your spirit to Vanilluxe!" The trainer yelled as he raised both arms, open handed into the sky. He hoped the audience would follow along as Vanilluxe began to charge. Above the head of the Snowstorm Pokémon a small blue ball formed. A small wind even picked up on stage as the ball began to grow in size. Time would add to the miraculous orb that was growing at a steady rate, larger and larger. The orb grew so large, a scale probably inconceivable due to the size of Vanilluxe. "Weather Spirit Ball!" Nick exclaimed, using an improvised name. His hands would slam down as the Vanilluxe brought the ball down swallowing the dummy target.
As the ball dispersed, the whole stage was covered in sparkling snow and ice. Nick put on his shades as he and Vanilluxe was done. "Great job, Snow King."
word count - 199 vanilluxe used hail. followed by weather ball.

Erin approached the stage with her large blue frog, taking deep, soothing breaths to calm her nerves. "Alright, let's do this!" She called out with a bright smile, spinning around once, dressed in a light blue dress.
"Rain Dance!" The enormous, voluptuous Seismitoad began a series of slow, methodical movements with its forearms, as he started to vibrate the nodes on his head, creating a melody in the air. Soon his whole body was taken away by his own music, and began dancing around the trainer with swift, agile steps that were uncanny to see from such a large beast. Rain came in buckets full from the air, crashing around the two of them. "Good, now One," she started in singsong, dancing inside of the circle of movement that the Seismitoad had made.
He stopped when she said one and spread out his hands, his whole body now vibrating and producing multiple pitches. The cascading water shifted and changed pattern around him from the specific sounds, creating what looked like arches and shortly after, the water even appeared to be going in reverse, back up towards the ceiling. "And Two," she continued, smiling eagerly.
A sharp, sudden ring of hydrating water spun around the Seismitoad, clashing into the rain. The water flowed around the giant beast, glistening against his smooth skin. The vibrations of the nodes on his body sparkled the faint traces of mist that landed along his body and across the ring, scattering into thousands of small rainbows.
echoed voice - drain punch - acid - mud bomb - rain dance - aqua ring - supersonic - refresh used rain dance, echoed voice and aqua ring
The balloon now was coming down from the ceiling, being pushed down a little by the rain cascading. Erin's eyes lit up and focused on it, and she did another little twirl. "There it is, now propel yourself with your voice, Seismitoad!" The gigantic beast launched up into the air, supersonic sound waves crashing into the floor bellow him and causing the rain to form a jet-wave behind him. As he neared the balloon, he shifted slightly, just barely brushing the target. His jump carried him to the ceiling, and the moment he landed against it, the coordinator on the ground called out to him.
"Acid Punch!" In the split second that his skin was pressed against the wall, he gathered up a bright green ball of energy in his fist. The wart on the back of his hand vibrated, acid spilling out of it and mixing with the energy of the Drain Punch. He kicked off of the wall with his powerful legs and threw his fist into the bright balloon. It was in that very instant that he took the sound waves of the rain and created the inverse wavelength to it in his own vibrations.
The second the balloon popped, silence filled the arena. The acid from the attack splashed into the rain and began to coat it, and as he began to fall the rain took on a dangerous looking dark purple hue around him. "Refresh the stage, my friend~" Erin spoke in a soft theater voice, the frog landing gently next to her. His smooth, slick skin took on a green glow and the poisoned rain that he had created soon turned pure and fresh again. The rain stopped only a second after he landed, leaving the stage with only a faint, viridian-glowing mist.
echoed voice - drain punch - acid - mud bomb - rain dance - aqua ring - supersonic - refresh used supersonic, drain punch, acid, and refresh
Erin stepped out of the way as the contest floor brought up the dummy, suddenly the only not soaking wet thing in the contest stage. A fierce look of determination blazed across her face like wildfire. Yes, she did have a spot of stage fright that was also making her ears red and her heart sputter, but so far... so good.
The only thing left was to do as much damage as possible to the dummy, and it was that STAB would be the key here. She gave a sideways grin to the Seismitoad, although she thought he was creepy she had grown to love him. "By now, you all know the drill!" She announced to the crowd, knowing they had seen so many other contestants before her. "Give it all you got! Echoing Sonic Mud Blast, go!"
The Seismitoad grinned back at her, creating a ball of mud in his large, yaoi syndrome hands. He took a step back into pitching position before launching it at the dummy. Of course, that was only part of the trick, because the momentum of the shot wasn't enough. He shot a supersonic at the sphere of mud, spurring it on more as he added echoed voice to the mix, pushing it to the speed of sound in a mere blink of an eye.
The ball smashed into the dummy and a thunderous roar of lightning echoed through the stage, sounding almost like hundreds of thousands of people clapping... Seismitoad scooped up the young coordinator that had been calling the shots and held her over his head. She stood on top of his hands and spread out her arms as the stage shimmered with how clean it was-- all except the dummy, who was covered in filth and tattered to pieces now.
echoed voice - drain punch - acid - mud bomb - rain dance - aqua ring - supersonic - refresh used mudbomb, supersonic, and echoed voice RESIX'S EDITDo not use font colors without a bg plzzzzzzzzzzz <333333 Makes it hard to read on some skins!

roselynn stone [/font][/center] Roselynn had a feeling that when she signed up for the unpopular contest, it wasn’t going to be what she thought. But her goal was to become the best cooridator she could be and thus she knew she would have to overcome each obstacle. But… to be stuck with a grimer, what in the world were they thinking?
The young brunette stepped out on the stage; she needed to show off the grimer as best as she could. Granted, she didn’t think poison attacks were that great for showing off… “Alright Grimer come on out and start us off with a poison gas! Fill up the stage!” she called out tossing the ball up in the air and with a red flash of light, the sludge pokemon appeared emitting a gas out of his muck. “Grimer!” he called out, the gas seeming to fill up the place as Roselynn covered her mouth coughing lightly. It wasn’t the greatest smelling attack, but it would have to do…
“Alright Grimer, now add in the protect! Just like I told you!” the brunette managed to cough out as the grimer begun to glow. A glowing ball seemed to form around him, pushing the poison gas at first until the orb broke; swallowing up the gas into smaller bubbles and thus shiny purple orbs filled the stage as they floated around. Roselynn smiled watching the purple orbs shimmer under the lights of the stage as the lights bounced off the orbs, filling the stage.
WORDS: 250
::grimer:: GRIMER (M) 50 sludge wave - fling - mud bomb - poison gas imprison - acid armor - protect - harden used poison gas and protect
roselynn stone [/font][/center] The poison gas had seemed to have dispersed from the glimmering bubbles before they had even popped just as a red balloon begun to float on down from the ceiling. It was time for the next part, and well this… was probably going to be a bit harder. But the young brunette had an idea, hopefully one that would at least make the audience laugh. “Alright grimer, once it reaches the ground I want you to cover the balloon with your body,” she nodded lightly and slowly the sludge pokemon made his way towards the balloon. Once the balloon had touched the ground he begun to cover it with his sludge like body.
It may not be a very impressive way to do thing… but hopefully it’ll gain some laughs. Sure you wanted to show off how you beautiful and prowess your pokemon could be, but doesn’t the coordinator want to make an impression? She knew that laughter could definitely make an impression on an audience, and hopefully the judges as well. “Alright, now use harden and then poison gas!” she called out just as Grimer and finished covering the balloon with his body.
The grimer’s body seemed to glistened as his mucky self began to harden up and right when the balloon made a loud popping noise, as if the grimer were farting, he let out some poison gas behind him to show of the effects of the “fart” sound. “Grim,” the grimer blushed as he held his hand to his mouth as if he was embarrassed the he managed to “let one out” in front of the audience. Roselynn smiled, laughing lightly hoping that the audience would indeed laugh as well.
WORDS:283
::grimer:: GRIMER (M) 50 sludge wave - fling - mud bomb - poison gas imprison - acid armor - protect - harden used harden and poison gas
roselynn stone [/font][/center] With the balloon popped it was now time to proceed onto the final stage of the appeal. A small dummy appeared before the two and Roselynn knew she really needed the grimer to make a spectacular display. She smirked lightly as the grimer turned to face towards the dummy ready to do his next appeal. Hopefully it would be displayed properly and with some beauty in it. “Alright grimer, we can do this!” the young brunette called out, posed as if ready for a battle.
“start off with an acid armor, and make sure to keep yourself glowing bright for the audience! We want them to know how much a of a shining star you are!” she called out and the grimer nodded. His body begun to glow a light blue as he raised his defense, it wasn’t going to be something that would make his attack stronger, but it would indeed make his attack looks incredible he hoped. “I hope all of you have wishes you want to make tonight, Grimer use mud bomb!” she called out and instantly the grimer begun to throw shot out a bunch of mud from his own glowing blue body.
The way the mud glowed as it show through the air towards the dummy it was as if there were stars shooting in the sky. Roselynn herself even closed her eyes for a moment wishing to win the contest before opening them back up to watch the “metor shower” as she called the attack since to her, it was almost as if they were in one. The way the glowed and shot through the air, it was as if they had the magical power to grant anyone’s wishes. “May all your wishes come true!” she called out with one last wave.
WORDS: 298
::grimer:: GRIMER (M) 50 sludge wave - fling - mud bomb - poison gas imprison - acid armor - protect - harden used acid armor and mud bomb
