As the crowd lets out a final roar the announcer steps forward. "Well what a fabulous finalé! If the trainers could all stand beside their Pokémon as the judges announce their scores!" The judges don't seem to take long at all to tally their final marks. "In 3rd place with a total of 4 points we have Amy and her Sudo!" Amy gently pats Sudo's head in consolation "In 2nd place with 6 points total is Gilford and Herbal!" Herbal jumps into Gilfords arms and he holds him. "And blasting ahead with careful planning and total precision to come out with 15 points, Adrianne and Vega!"
"Lets hear it for everyone, and we will be back for more later!" After some applause Adri is led back out to the lobby with the others.

Adri quickly scanned the room for a chair and sat down heavily as soon as she found one. She pulled Vega into her lap and started petting the bubbly pokemon.
"That was pretty hectic, but still a lot of fun!"
She turned to look at her competitors.
"Thank you for the competition. It was an honor, really"

The other competitors give similar platitudes before everyone made their own way off.

When the oyher two contestants motioned to leave Adri ran after both of them.
"Wait! I'm sorry for insisting, both of you, but I'd like to ask a couple things" she said.
She leaned against the hallway wall for some confort and continued.
"Amy, if you don't mind me asking, where did you get Sudo? I've always wanted a Tyrogue. And Mr. Gilford... a friend of mine is a chef and likes to challenge others to cook-offs to increase his skill. Would you be willing to face him in one?"[/font

Gilford responds first. "No thanks... I had enough of that at my stall earlier" He says over shoulder as he waves and keeps leaving.
Amy actually stops though, and turns, her eyes full of excitement. Once Gilford had finished talking she happily started talking about her Sudo. "Oh I caught him just west of the industrial district. There seem to be some around there. He kept sneaking into town to try and fight for food. There was always something different about him though, this isn't one of the usual three forms that you usually see. Apparently these ones show up too? They have this aura thing and they focus that into their attacks..."

Adri allowed her to rant in a bit, then smiled.
"That's so interesting! I wonder what the evolution trigger was. For the other members of the hitmonclan, it seems to be their combat focus but if this... Hitmonthai truly focuses on aura use then the trigger might be learning a move like Aura Sphere or Force Palm. I wonder... would you allow me to study Sudo for a bit?" she pulled out her study notepad. "I'm sort of an amateur Pokémon researcher and this is really interesting. Plus, my father has a Lucario so I'm familiar enough with Aura powers"

"Yeah sure, I don't mind as long as he doesn't. He actually still doesn't know either of those. I'm not sure, it's like he has always preferred to work on his focus, you know? He's a serious guy, likes to meditate a lot. Maybe he puts mind over matter, you know? Oh why don't we let him out?" She takes his Pokéball off her belt and lets him out beside her. "Sudo, This is Adri from the contest. She's quite interested in your training." Sudo stares at Adri for a moment, then nods. "Looks like he's on board with a little study! I'm curious about your research myself, might lend to some of my tactics."

Adri pulled out her sketchpad and led the girl outside the contest hall and into the park. She sketched Hitmonthai's biometric measurements, had it try out a couple attacks and make a couple tests, taking notes the entire time.
"This is very rare, you know. Try and take care of Sudo. His strange evolution means some people might go to insane lengths to get their hands on this. I'll try to take my notes to Prof. Pine when I see her again and we'll come up with some hypothesis"
She filed through her bag and pulled out her 'dex.
Here, take my comm code! Drop a call every now and then, why don't you? And try to see if he can learn Aura Sphere or Force Palm, or something the like. Since it looks like a Muay Thai fighter, you might want to try things like Hammer Arm, Sky Uppercut and Jump Kick"
"Also... any chance I can get you to guide me to where you found the Tyrogue later this week? I'm... kinda not very good with cities she finished, rather embarrassed by the confession.

Amy watches with interest as Adri puts Sudo through all the motions, giving him encouragement every now and then. She's happy enough to swap numbers too. "I'm free enough tomorrow evening, I can bring you over. Maybe even give you back up, though Sudo might be a bit strong for the wild ones now..."

Adri gave a dazzling smile.
"It's a plan, then! And I know what you mean. I really need to take care when using my starter, so that he doesn't accidentally go overboard" she said. "Anyways, I have to go meet up with my group. Take care! See you tomorrow!"

Later in the week, Adri finds time to sign up for another contest, this time a cute one. The stage is set and the crowd excited as the MC comes out to kick things off. "Good evening everyone! Today we have a very special very adorable contest for you! 3 cute Pokemon will duke it out for your affections! Are you ready?"A cheer goes up form the crowd, and the first contestant steps forward. "First up is our very own Teresa Jenny, Constable of the University District Branch!" A Jenny, in full uniform, walks confidently out into the light. "Why don't you all meet my Angel. She and I will serve, protect and entertain!"She releases a Ducklett, which flutters around her. It lands on her head and she blows a kiss to the crowd.

"Now you might have seen this Fashion-contest Entrepreneur about, William: owner of the Knits of the Old Republic!"You think you may have seen a stall with that name selling scarves and other clothing. A Boy in a way too long white scarf walks out before striking a power pose. "I don't care what you guys have planned! My Great Orb will defeat you in just one punch. Show them, Saitama!"He releases a Jigglypuff in a cape right in front of him. It too has taken up a power pose, and appears to have been given some makeup. Its head has also been polished to a shine.

"Next, a newcomer who made her debut on a Smart contest earlier this week! Everyone welcome Adrianne Mossgrove!" Adri made it to the stage as the Announcer introduces her. She was wearing her normal clothes, having decided that the high contrast between purple and black wouldn't take away from her cute appeal. She still wasn't used to the lights and the stage and, although confident on the outside, in truth she was a flutter of nerves. She unclasped Johan's pokeball and lifted it above her head before triggering the release. "Come on out, Johan! It is time for you to soar and shine!" she said as her Buneary materialized mid-flip and landed onto the stage with a twist. His fur showed a glossy, radiant glow as he twirled and bounced on the stagetop. 4d6 Charm + 1d6 Grooming yhSOpdiX5d6 5d6

The turn and stage order has been drawn and is as follows:
| Turn 3 | Turn 1 | Turn 2 | Round 1 | Johan | Angel | Saitama | Round 2 | Angel | Saitama | Johan | Round 3 | Saitama | Johan | Angel |
With that, the contestants take their starting positions and the contest can begin! Taking the center stage first is Angel. Angel adopts the most serene pose it can, looking like a statue, and sprays water upwards to complete the cherubim fountain image. The water sparkles in the spotlight as it falls, and Angel is become art. Water Gun, Steady Performance +Cute, +2 Contest Die : FBkj5MFJ8d6 +1 Voltage Next up is Saitama. It appears to have gotten the mic from the MC somehow. "Jigglyyyyyyyy. Jiggly puff, Jiggly. Jiggly, Jiggly, Jiggly puff puff" It appears to be singing a song. The crowd are stuck somewhere between drowsy and excited! Sing, Excitement +cute 4d6 +2 Voltage The crowd look to Johan. 8d6·4d6

Johan gives a solid performance, and the crowd are only slightly less enthusiastic than for Saitama's performance, perhaps thanks to the drowsiness it caused. The contestants rearranged themselves for round 2!
| Turn 3 | Turn 1 | Turn 2 | Round 2 | Angel | Saitama | Johan |
Saitama steps forward in the spotlight, still somehow with the MC's mic, and does a spin before facing the crowd with a disarmingly cute appearance!

As Johan's turn comes around, he stops jumping and stays very still. A couple seconds pass, and then suddenly he opens his eyes which are now surrounded by an ethereal bluish glow. He then tops it off with a closed-eyes, double spin somersault. Foresight - Good Show! Smart 2d6+3d6 more voltage +1d6 Smart die +2d6 Voltage yB2HFTPl8d6

Johan's performance puts shame on the other contestant's performances. Regardless, Angel attempts to show renewed vigor. She assumes a new, more elegant form, blasting into a triple-layered fountain that actually forms rainbows!
