Carrie nodded at him. "That's fine, and I think they're going to announce the rules before the Tournament starts, anyhow. All I know is that sign-ups start at 7:30." That reminded her. She looked once more at the clock atop the Department store. "It's 7:27 now. We better move."
Carrie watched Ben move away, and she waved to Sonjo. "Hey, let's move. Only three minutes until this place becomes crowded."
They reached the Pokemon Center a minute later, passing through the doors and heading for the front counter. A few trainers were lounging about with the Pokemon, and a few were signing up already. Carrie moved up to the only clipboard not occupied and stared down at the sheet. She tapped the provided pen on the counter as she scanned it, before filling it in.

Carrie sighed as she unclipped the completed form from the board, stepping away so that Sonjo could take his turn. As she moved the intercom came on with a buzz and a click, announcing the start of the sign-ups in a loud, sporting voice. She hurried out of Sonjo's way, rocking back and waiting for him to finish. She could already see more trainers pouring in through the doors.
