It was a lovely day in Lumiose city and Nika Winter was walking home from the park. "That was fun climbing trees wasn't it Leo!" She said to her Shinx. It did a little twirl. She giggled at the thought that she was going to tell her mom that she just signed up for the Pokemon Performance! "Mom is going to freak out!" Nika said. Once she got home she saw her mom baking in the kitchen. "Mom! Guess what! I signed up for the Pokemon Performance!" Mrs. Winter was very surprised, then she started crying! "Mom? Are you ok?" "Yes, I'm just so happy that my daughter is following in my footsteps!" She replied hugging her. "*gasp* We need to find you a cute dress to wear, and get your hair done..." She started, "Mom, the cake is burning in the oven!!" Nika cried. Mrs. Winter quickly went over to the oven and pulled out the burnt cake. "You and your father are better at this then I am..." She said frown. Nika laughed as she sat down on the couch with Leo think about what might happen next.
 
Luna Stone had just gotten out of the lobby of the nice hotel she would be staying at while she was in Lumious city. Her long white hair swayed gently into the breeze as she walked. The smell of fresh baked bread was coming from some of the shops as she passed by.

Umbre was by her side. Where he has always been. Umbre was one of two pokemon that Luna had befriended. Being that Umbre was the child of her parent's pokemon, both Umbreon as well, Umbre was naturally going to bond with the young child.

As she walked, Luna went into smaller shops. She wanted to look for something a bit more showy for her next performance, and seeing as she would be competing with others who have had access to the fasion of Kalos, Luna had a bit of catching up to do.

A stop in one of the more practical places to find clothing for performance that is where Luna found herself. Looking around the shop she started to pull a couple of items off of the shelf. She wanted a large selection to choose from when she had to pick an outfit.
 
Hum, hum, hum...

Gentle clopping filled the streets of Lumiose, one of the many sounds that flooded the busy and bustling city: the same as everyday. The strong, sturdy hooves that clicked against the roads was that of a Gogoat, otherwise known as the famous Mount Pokemon. Sat on top with a gentle grip of its curved horns was the almost young adult, Ruth Kennedi, her eyes wide with excitement as she looked around the beautifully lit up city.

Admittedly the Kennedi daughter hadn't been in Kalos for long. Whilst it had been where she was born, at the age of around nine she had gone to live with her uncle, where they would often go from place to place for her uncle's business. Current time had been the first time she had really been able to admire the city after seven years.

The Mount Pokemon wasn't the only one of Ruth's that was out of its Pokeball. One Pokemon that trotted along by its side was a Furfrou, its fur in the Deputante Trim. On the back of the Furfrou was a Buneary, who kept tight hold of the other Normal Type to insure he didn't fall off. He had made his self as small as possible in an attempt to not grab attention: he seemed rather nervous and shy to the bright surroundings. On her lap sat her Glameow, and her Monferno walked besides her Furfrou. In short, all her Pokemon were out and reasonably content.

Recently she had signed up for the Pokemon Performance competition. Something new and something excited: that's how she viewed it, hence the reason she was content to attend.

So, with her Pokemon, she rode around the streets: she seeked something to do, somewhere to explore or even someone to interact with.
 
Sashley
~~~~~~~
Sashley walked through the city streets in a bundle of joy. She had just entered a performance contest in Lumiose city and is currently waiting for the performance time. She was going through the streets and finally found the place she was looking for, a tiny coffee shop. She walked inside and her that iconic bell chime in most coffee shops. There sitting at a table was Luna, her brother. She called him here to tell him about the news. She sat down and started talking, “Hi Luna, sorry for asking you to come here, you must be wanting to go challenge the gym.” Luna just stared blankly with his smile. “I just wanted to say though that,” Sashley paused. “I entered the performance contest!” Her Pokémon came out all at the same time and each did their special thing. She had practiced this moment over a hundred times to get her brother’s approval and to impress him. Her Meganium holding a little cake, Lucario doing a martial-arts pose, her Volcarona making a ring of fire, and her Golurk standing on it’s stone pillars. She saw a big smile on Luna’s face.
~~~~~~~~
Luna
~~~~
He stood up and clapped for her little presentation. “I actually wanted to tell you that entered the performance too, since it would be nice being known as Kalos King, wouldn’t it?” Sashley was surprised from what Luna could see. His Feraligatr had come out and made a water ring around him, making him look somewhat majestic. He was quite happy that they would both be in the contest but had a tiny problem. He didn’t know anything about performance contests. His sister would watch it all the time when she was little but he’d be drawing at his desk. “How does the performance contest work, Sash?” Sashley smacked her face. Sashley handed him a brochure and he took it opening it up. He read all the contents and now had basic info and what the contest would have. He was a little overwhelmed about this and wasn’t sure why Sashley was so calm about this, after all, these would be their first performances. He first had to drop two of his Pokémon to his father, since he wasn’t planning to use all 6 of his Pokémon, just like Sashley. He however, wanted to do this because they were both sick and could not participate.

(feels weird to control 2 characters)
 
As Dolan stood on the stage with his pokémon one of the judges approached him, "congratulations! Your the grand champion of the woooooorld!!!" Said the judge as he held up a ridiculously large trophy. The entire place was in an uproar in cheer. Dolan held up the trophy with pride as this was a proud moment for the sea king. Moments later the trophy started ringing and as he blinked he noticed he was now floating in the ocean of all places and the waters were raging as if kyogre were splashing about. Dolan then woke up to the souqnd of his alarm clock going off and his slowking nudging him in an attempt to wake him up. He looked over at Sol with a dumbfound Expression as he wasn't entirely sure what was going on. *bzzzzzz!* "YOU HAVE ONE TEXT MESSAGE!" Went Dolan's phone. He looked over as he grabbed his phone pulling it off the charger ,and he noticed it was a text message from his brother telling him it was breakfast time as Doran often did as he didn't want to stop what he was doing. Dolan got dressed and made his way to the kitchen to see the horror that lie within the kitchen. His father had placed a bottle of syrup next to the pancakes instead of honey and the juice was orange juice instead of dolan's preferred grapefruit juice. "Oooh the horror! You fool! What abhorrent abomination have you done father!" Dolan thought to himself as with a look of shock and disappointment. "Sorry we ran out of honey and grapefruit juice son..." his dad said casually as he looked out the window at the ocean as he ate his breakfast. Dolan reluctantly sat down and ate his pancakes dry with no honey and as much as he preferred grapefruit juice he still enjoyed orange juice. As Doran walked into the kitchen and handed Dolan his contest flyer "you dropped this..." Doran said as he walked by. Dolan knew his brother ate the last of the honey but he thanked him anyways. He also already knew he drank the last of the grapefruit juice himself. Sol walked over to Dolan ,and Dolan hastily grabbed his bag and waving at his father and brother. without uttering a word the the two cheerfully ran outside to headed to the monorail.

"Alright guys, break!"

At a park within Lumiose City stood a trainer with two of his Pokemon, both each carrying a variety of bags of whatever they all, more so Crimson, had bought for themselves. Crimson had his satchel strapped across his shoulders tightly while both of his hands held onto two shopping bags each. The latter's loyal Gleam Eyes Pokemon, Luxray, held a shopping bag within his maw, as his quadrupled limbs are used for traversing areas. Volcarona, Crimson's Sun Pokemon, held onto the food baskets and groceries they had went to. The trio sat on a grassy patch of the park next to a fountain, with Crimson laying out a plaid black and white blanket first. He and his Pokemon all agreed to have a spontaneous picnic because they all deserve a nice park picnic once in a while.

Crimson Asters released the rest of his Pokeballs midair. Froslass and Togekiss took off flying into the airs, loving the freedom of the fresh air they had in the skies. Cradily, the little diva she was, made her way to the sunniest spot near their area to sunbathe and freshen it's complexion. The lastof Crimson's Pokemon, the Brutal Pokemon, Sharpedo, as it didn't have it's own means of traveling on land, landed in the fountain, where the Pokemon could swim freely for a bit.

"C'mon guys. You wanted a picnic, you have to help out a bit too," Crimson complained to his Pokemon in a joking manner. "If not, picnic would only be for Volcarona and Luxray because they helped out." Reluctantly, each Pokemon came closer to their trainer, awaiting instructions on what to do for their meal.

For a while, they were all enjoying themselves prepping the picnic. Sharpedo was charged with washing the fruits and vegetables while Cradily helped slice and chop up portions of the food. Froslass was in charge with desert, making simple popsicle with her icy elements. Togekiss and Volcarona were charged with setting the plates and bowls. Luxray was Crimson's sous chef, assisting on the trainer's cooking. By the end of it, they all cheered for having finished cooking and finally getting to eat.

During their picnic, Crimson wanted to bring a short monologue for the group for their recent accomplishment. "So guys, for our first ever Grand Festival, although we didn't win, we still got 2nd place! We made it to the finals on our first try! I wanted congratulate all of y'all for struggling with me and sticking together until the end! This time around, I signed us up for Pokemon Showcases in the Kalos Region. Hopefully, you all retained your skills because we're going to work hard to win the showcases!" Crimson exclaimed to all his Pokemon, and in excitement, all his Pokemon cheered back awaiting the journey ahead of them.
 
As Dolan ran outside he jumped over a ledge and over old man Willard's shop. "careful you youngin! don't be gettin yourself hurt now, ya here me!" Said the old man chuckling as he watched him run. The old man's stoutland lifted his head letting out a tired gruff as Dolan landed on the ground ,and Dolan laughed tossing the old stoutland a poffin. Not too far behind him his partner Sol jumped down too using his psychic abilities to ensure a safe landing. Dolan and the old man waved as both Dolan and Sol ran towards the monorail. Dolan jumped with joy waving at the worker standing outside the station, "I'm headed to Lumiouse City lady!" Dolan cheered as he ran inside with Sol a few paces behind him. As he approached the counter waving his monorail pass around ,and as he boarded the monorail he let all five of his other pokémon out of their pokéballs. The pokémon enjoyed the sights as they headed to route 13. As they made it past route 13 they finally made it to Lumiouse City! As they walked into the city, THE SEA KING IS HEEERE!!" Dolan yelled as his pokémon cheered. Some of the people stopped to look to sea what the fuss was. Two young preschooler kids ran over, "WOW! The sea king! the sea king! I saw your last performance! you totally should have won! that was no fair!" The little kids said. Dolan bent down as he talked to the kids ,and took a picture with them and Dolan's pokémon. The kids ran off happy ,and Dolan looked at His watch then at his pokémon and they walked towards the Lumiouse City park as he loved watching the swanna and ducklett swim in the pond. Dolan had even brought a loaf of bread to feed them with since it was okay. Dolan sat near the pond tossing bread chunks as the swanna and ducklett caught them. His pokémon ran around and played as they enjoyed coming to the park. Sol enjoyed sitting by the edge of the pond getting his feet wet while looking at the clouds, Polti and Ludio enjoyed splashing in the water, Fazel enjoyed floating in the water and taking naps ,and Barabara and Goldi enjoyed sparring.
 
Sashley
~~~~~~
As Sashley watches Luna walking out, she returns her Pokémon to her Pokéballs and finishes her cup of lemonade. Before leaving, she left a tip of a few bucks on the table, which the waiter gladly picked up.

Sashley walked around Lumiose City and saw the most glorious thing, a summer yellow dress. It seemed so perfect and she just had to get it. She found the long yellow dress to be so mesmerizing, with the sleeves making it a complete fit. She grabbed it straight away and walked to the counter. While on her way she found something that just felt perfect for one of the themes of the performance contests, The Poképuff Baking, she grabbed that with a grin. On her final stop to the counter she had seen the very one she had needed that would fit for all the the themes, a pretty looking, pale yellow, dress. She brought all three of the items to the counter and paid. Sashley was relieved to find out that she had money in her pocket to buy all these dress, because it would’ve been a hefty price. The cashier smiled at her while she was paying. Before she had left, the cashier gave her 2 gifts because she brought 2 special dresses, each of which had an accommodating item, a blue flower, and boots.

She was finally outside, and glad that her eyes haven’t caught anymore dresses. She dropped them off at her apartment and went back outside to give her Pokémon some fresh air, after all, they didn’t like being stuck in their Pokéballs all day, even in the cafe, they couldn’t stand the smell of coffee.

She sat down at the bench and watched as her Pokémon played around. Her Meganium, Melody, was giving out tiny flower to parents and their kids, Kingi was beating a nearby punching bag, which attracted all the children, Vall was flying around, leaving little fire dusts on people, giving them a good laugh, and finally, her Golurk, Gold, could be seen sitting on top of the buildings, looking for someone in need or just feeling the breeze. Her day had gone pretty well.

Luna
~~~~
Luna was running to his father’s apartment, in need of someone to take care of his Pokémon. He passed by an Electric Blue Hair person, which seems oddly specific to be a hair color he thought, and his Pokémon playing in a pond. Few moments later he also saw a Pokémon trainer having a picnic, which just made him smile continually. He finally was in what he liked to call the "Main City Area" and saw some shoppers, he passed by his sister and gave her a quick wave.

He finally made it to his father’s apartment, who was of course, sleeping. He shook his dad and woke him up, explaining him to take care of 2 of his Pokémon, which were sick. His father agreed to this and held Luna gave his 2 Pokémon’s Pokéballs and waved goodbye to his father and Pokémon.

He finally started walking, exhausted from all the running he had to do. He passes his sister, Sashley, sitting there looking after her Pokémon, who were all doing their own thing. He then saw something that hit him right in the head. He saw by Sashley, 2 shopping bags, from the store across her. He had not bought his performance outfit. He didn’t know what he was gonna wear. "This is stressing me out a bit, wonder how Sashley is doing," he whispered out softly, but before he would go buying clothes, he needed rest. Luna does all his best thinking after being well rested, and this included choosing a performance outfit that first, had to go well with the performances, and second, had to appeal to the audience. He walked to his apartment which wasn’t too far away, next door to his father’s. Before going in his apartment, he let all his Pokémon out to give them some fresh air. He let the window open, Incase one of them wanted to go inside. He walked in and fell on his bed.
 
Luna Stone had been in the dress store for awhile. She had been indecisive about what she wanted to get. In her hands she had three dress each one was black, but had different colored details to them.

The first one was a long floor length dress. It was your classic princess gown that layers of lace on the bodice of the dress. To go with the dress, Luna picked out a pair of sparkling sliver 5 inch heels. The seemed to have sleaves made of lace that accentuate her slender frame.

The next dress was a bit more form fitting. It comes to about her knees and shows off her body well. Below her bust, the dress has a dark purple belt that tend to give her a cinched look. The sleeves do not come all the way down to her hands, they stop just below the elbow. For shoes she paired a pair of dark purple heels with them.

The last dress is more on the casual side of things. It is looser and has a slit up to her thigh. The dress looked to be made of lace with a sparkley fabic underneath. Luna decided to pair this dress with a pair of shimmering white leggings, and a pair of black combat boots.

After deciding on what she wanted, Luna walked over to the woman behind the counter. She had gotten there just as another girl was paying for her dresses. Setting the items on the counter, the cashier rung them up and said the total. Luna took out a black amex card from her bag and paid for everything.

With her purchases in hand, Luna and Umbre walked back to the hotel. She wanted to get her clothes put away before she found somewhere to eat. She did not realize how hungry she was until she started back.
 
As Dolan fed the swanna and ducklett he noticed a light blue haired boy with pigtails run by. After Dolan ran out of bread he sat outside a few minutes of enjoying the nice weather he returned all of his pokémon to his pokéballs except Sol. Dolan decided before he would head to the contest he would eat a meal at his favorite restaurant, "Restaurant Le Nah" as the food was cheap, good, and they let him bring his slowking inside. Dolan was pretty hungry and ordered the same soup he always had. Along with some pokétreats for his pokémon. As Dolan made his way down the street a fisherman recognized him, "Ahoy! Ahoy there! Sea king...over 'ere!" Said the jolly man. As Dolan approached the man he smiled and they talked for a few minutes about the ocean and Dolan signed an autograph for the man along with a picture. The two waved and parted ways as Dolan was determined to get there now. Dolan walked over to one of lumiouse's many taxis ,and paid the driver to take him to Restaurant Le Nah. Dolan in the back with his slowking as he talked to the driver along the way and when they arrived the man gave him a discount. After Dolan paid the man he entered the restaurant and spoke to the worker at the front desk and ordered a meal. It was a good meal and he really enjoyed it too. Sol sat beside him and enjoyed the treats in front of him. He enjoyed his soup and bought some extra treats before leaving. After he left he gave his other pokémon some treats and they sat outside for a few minutes then Dolan returned them to their pokéballs. Dolan looked up at the sky and at Sol, "Are you ready for the contest?" Dolan said as he grinned at Sol ,and Sol smiled back as they were now headed towards the contest hall.
 
Luna Stone had just walked out of the hotel, it was about twenty minutes after she had taken her new clothes to her room. Umbre walked with her to the café that seemed to be a focal point for Kalosians.

It was a bustling cafe that had many trainers and performers treating their pokemon to a bite to eat. It was nice to see that others were their as well. Letting her pokemon out of their pokeballs, and let them enjoy some freedom out of their pokeballs.

After eating, Luna and her pokemon walked down to the contest hall to see when the next contest was. There was a girl there decorating pokepuffs. It turns out that the contest would start tomorrow. "Excuse me, but are you waiting for the contest to start?"

After awhile Nika decided to go for a walk and window shop for a little. Leo started scratching her pant leg. "Whats up Leo?" She asked him, then the little Shinx ran over to the café! "Guess your hungry!" She laughed as she ran after him. She ordered some pokepuffs and sat down. Nika tends to eavesdrop so she listened to people's conversations. She heard someone ask when the contest would start! "Its happening tomorrow morning." She said as she walked over to the girl with the Umbreon.
 
Sashley
~~~~~~
Sashley has realized she had fallen asleep and was woken up by her Meganium’s cry. She looked below the bench and saw that her shopping bags were missing! She walked around the area asking everyone if they had seen it. Each one replied with no and giggled, making her quite confused. It finally gave away when someone looked at the top of a tall building a Sashley saw Gold, holding her stuff.
Sashley had to climb up the tower of stairs and just when she got to the top.

Gold had jumped down on the ground. She was so tired at this point, but she had her Meganium watching her. The Meganium held Sashley on a vine and took her all the way down to Gold, who had a somewhat bubbly expression. She took the bags back and went back to the bench, extremely exhausted from this action her Pokémon had done. To make sure no one would actually steal her bags, took them to her apartment and went back out.

Luna
~~~~~
Luna woke up to the sound of his next-door neighbor opening her door, which was Sashley. He went out to breathe the fresh air for a while and decided to check on his sick Pokémon. His father was on his chair, reading a magazine, with his mother next to him sipping a cup of coffee. His Gallade and Escavalier were lying in separate beds, both in pain. He couldn’t bare to see them like this and left the room with a few tears.

He still saw Sashley on the bench gazing at her Pokémon. He saw a somewhat interesting looking store and decided to go inside it, looking for apparel during the Pokémon performance. He saw a poster outside the wall and saw the date of the contest. Tommorow is the date.
 
As Dolan left Restaurant Le Nah he was planning on heading to the contest hall ,but noticed a text message from his father telling him the contest was tomorrow. Rather than going to the contest hall he paused and remembered he wanted to go to Cafe Classe on Vernal Avenue ,before checking into his hotel room at Hotel Richissime in North Boulevard As he Arrived at cafe classe he sat there for a while talking to the other guests giving advice to new contestants ,and talked with them about the upcoming contest for an hour before he decided to head to his hotel Room. The room was very expensive ,but he got to stay on the fifth floor. The sight from his window was spectacular as he really enjoyed the view. He let his other pokémon out to enjoy the view. They sat there for another hour before Dolan decided to return most of his pokémon except Sol as the two headed down to the lobby to see if there were any competition staying at Hotel Ricchissime. He sat there with his Slowking discussing his plans for the upcoming contest.
 
As he sat there he talked with some of the guests as they sat in the lobby. Dolan surprised as just how comfortable the chairs were. Sol sat beside him ,and let out a small chuckle as he too enjoyed the comfort of the chairs. He saw all sorts of people walk by. He then pulled out his phone and texted his father that he was at Hotel Richissime ,and that his belongings were in his room.

Nika smiled at the two girls. "Well, do you guess wanna talk about dresses?" She asked them with a small giggle.
_____________________
Alex Fama was riding down the sidewalk on her bike while Elena, her Espeon, was sitting in the basket. She stopped at the dress shop and went inside to look at dresses. "What do you think Elena? Red or Green?" She said looking at her pokemon. Elena decided to go sit by the window and not bother with questions. Alex rolled her eyes and looked around a bit.

Crimson and his rag tag team of Pokemon eventually finished up their picnic with filled stomachs. The crew cleaned up most of the mess and eventually returned to their respective Pokeballs, leaving out only Luxray and the trainer to clean up any minor messes they have missed. Securing his items and Pokeballs, Crimson led Luxray out of the park and into the semi-bustling city to walk off the meal they had just ate. Mostly doing some window shopping, as they already had bought a bunch of accessories prior to the picnic, the brunette and Gleam Eye Pokemon stumbled themselves on a flyer posted along a window of a Poke Puff store.

Initially, Crimson only saw the Poke Puff store and only groaned to himself. "I literally cannot think about food or I'm going to throw up," Crimson jokingly said aloud, not specifically directed to Luxray, but the Pokemon nudged it's trainer in worry anyways. Crimson simply grinned and ran his hand through the Pokemon's mane in comfort before his eye caught a piece of paper attached on the window of said Poke Puff store. The sign read:

"Lumiose Pokemon Showcase on --/-- at 5:00PM! Come join to watch the spectacular performances or join the showcase and win yourself a prestige Showcase Key to enter Masterclass!"

The flyer had a lop of extras such as popping colors and photos of Pokemon performing, but Crimson paid no mind to that. "Look at this Luxray, there's a Pokemon Showcase tomorrow we can join, we should probably join that and experience the competition for ourselves," Crimson said ecstatically. The Gleam Eye Pokemon didn't react much except grunted in agreement with whatever it's trainer wanted to do. "We should head somewhere and prepare for it!"

Both trainer and Pokemon headed towards the Pokemon Center to see if they had any rooms left, which luckily they did. Using their spare time, Crimson took his Pokemon out back, behind the Pokemon Center which laid out a whole battlefield, for the team to practice a showcase on the spot.

Alex finally found a dress she liked. "Ooh, this looks nice." She said as she felt the fabric. It was very silky and nice to touch. She took it off the hanger and went straight for the dressing room. It was a short dress, but not too short which was good. (She hates dresses that are really short) It was red, which went with her hair. It fit perfectly. "What do ya think Elena?" She asked the Espeon. It yawned as it walked over to inspect it. She nodded her head. "Glad you li....40 DOLLARS?!" She exclaimed.
 
Dolan sat in the chair he then leaned back and propped his feet on the ottoman. Sol walked over and laid on his feet as he two enjoyed sitting comfortably. Dolan didn't seem to mind as he was distracted with his phone posting pictures of his pokémon as the park pond on his social media page, "Pokébook"(kinda like facebook except pokémon). A minute later a man and a boy approached him ,and the man taps on his shoulder. As he does Dolan looks up, "whats up? can I help you?" Dolan said with a grin. "I knew it son! its him! can me and my son take a picture with you?" Said the man eagerly holding up a camera. A worker held the camera as the boy, the man, Dolan ,and Sol smiled with a pose for the picture. The man was so happy the two of them sat next to him and they talked for a few minutes before the two went to the elevator to their hotel room. Dolan smiled looking back at Sol as the two sat back down and relaxed.
 
"Sure I do not mind talking about dresses. If you want to we can go to my hotel it is nearby and you see the new ones I bought to maybe wear tomorrow." Luna had a smile on her face as she spoke. It was great to have new friends, and she hoped that these two would be two new ones.

"Thats fine with me!" Nika replied. "Ah man. I totally need some dresses. I forgot to buy some..." She said scratching the back of her neck embarrassed.
____________________________
"Great! Now I need to get 40 dollars..." Alex said taking off the dress and putting it back. "Lets go Elena..." Then a green and black dress caught her eye. She smirked as she picked it up and went back into the dressing room.
She came out and twirled in it. "Perfect!" She said.
Once she had bought it, she walked over to the café to rest. Shopping was hard work.
 
"Well if you want we can go shopping for new ones. There were some stores that I wanted to hit, but I ended up getting too hungry from walking around in the first store to continue to shopping." Luna had a smile on her face. She loved to shop, and it showed in the wardrobe that she brought with her to work with for each contest in Kalos.
 
Dolan looked at Sol and he looked at his watch as the time rolled by ,and he wondered how many people were going to go to the contest tomorrow. He walked over to the counter and ordered a drink and as he got his drink he sat down contemptly as he watched the occasional person walk through the the lobby.

"I'm not letting you beat me!" "Bun!". The pair shouted. Suddenly, a teenage girl wearing a hoodie and some shorts and a Scorbunny right beside her. were running down the street. They both stopped at the poke-puff cafe at the exact same time. They both were out of breath and stopped to take a breather as Lizzie took a drink of water. "Okay, we'll call it a draw," she said while laughing. The Scorbunny jumped onto the girl's shoulder. "Oh come on my legs are tired too." "Buun." "Okay you can rest on my shoulder but you have to promise me you'll do your best during practice." She said as she walked inside. She went up to the front and ordered a hot white chocolate and 2 spice poke puffs with a waffle. Lizzy sat down and ate her waffle while Scrobunny ate his poke puff. She noticed two girls, one with an Umbreon and another with a shinx. "Oh hello! My name is Lizzie. I if I'm not mistaken, you two were talking about the upcoming showcase right?"

"Yes we are!" Nika replied to the girl with a Scorbunny. "Are you entering too?" She asked as she played with her red hair. Nika found the girl very interesting and not the kinda a person to be interested in this sort of thing. "And yeah, thats a good idea Luna." Leo was now pawing at her boot and trying to take the ribbons of on them. Nika chuckled.
Alex wasn't too far away from where this was happening. She was in the same room as them. She went up to the conter and ordered a hot chocolate and some vanilla poke puffs. She sat down close to where Nika, Luna, and Lizzie were.
 
"I am actually," she said as she sipped from her mug. "I just got back from my morning jog and somebody, who I will not name names but rhymes with "gate", tried to race me," said Elizabeth as she looked smugly at Nate. Nate stopped eating his puff to look at her grumpily. "Don't look at me like that," she said as she fished a great ball out of her bag. "Alister, breakfast." She said as the Pokeball burst open with a blue light. The light formed a small lamp figure and it disappeared leaving a black pokemon with a small blue fire inside. Alister was rather tired until the smell of cinnamon woke him up. He started to munch away at the puff.

Dolan sat at the bar as the bartender poured another round in his glass. He left the man a tip as he drank his beverage ,and looked over at Sol then sat his journal on the counter. He flipped through the pages looking at his contest strategies and patterns, "Tomorrow is right around the corner bud!" Dolan said as he glanced over at Sol.
 
"You really just got done with your morning jog? I would have went this morning, but my plane did not get here until after my normal running time. We were about to go shopping if you would like to join us." Luna had a smile on her face as she spoke of her normal run routine.

"By the way my name is Luna Stone, and this is Umbre." Umbre noded with a slight bow of her head to the new girl.
 
Luna
~~~~~
While Luna was in the store, he saw some girls talking to each other. He looked around the store and finally noticed, that this placed, was filled with dresses, and was not the right place for him. He immediately left with a flushed face, extremely embarrassed that he had entered a store for females and not males, although he could’ve been mistaken for a girl if they did see them, which was what he wished for.

He had found a store that was for males and females, but because of the event earlier, he triple-checked if it was for males. He was roaming around for a while and found something that caught his attention. Unlike his sister, he likes to stay in 1 outfit most of the time, making this suit almost perfection for the contest. His only concerns was that there was a baking-related one and would need something to fit that. He knew for sure there wouldn’t be anything like that in here and went straight to check-out. He walks out, glad with his purchase, and tries to find another store that would fit his needs.

He found a store called "Chef’s Prep", with a slogan, "All your chef needs are here!" Luna walked in and was asked a question by a lady by the door. By the way she dressed, he concluded she worked here and listened, "You're here because of the performance aren’t you" her voice seemed to demonstrate that she was tired. "Umm... yes ma’am" the lady took him to an area and pointed to one rack, probably signaling that he would find what he needed there. He walked over and after a few minutes of observing the rack, he found a somewhat decent looking outfit.

Sashley

As Sashley felt the warm sun on her face, she saw Luna roaming around and saw him going into a girl’s apparel store. She kept for herself, trying her hardest not to laugh, but when he was completely in the store, she burst in laughter. Her Pokémon were extremely confused by this action and all went up to her in confusion. Sashley just kept laughing and stopped when she saw Luna walking out with a flushed face, probably embarrassed that he walked into a girl’s apparel store. She returned all her Pokémon into their Pokéballs and started walking towards the store.

Sashley walked into the store and saw some girls having a chat. Although she wasn’t completely sure if their conversation was about to end, she wanted to butt-in anyway since she was so bored. Seeing that they all had their Pokémon out, she didn’t want to be the "Odd 1 Out" by not having her Pokémon beside her. She took out her Meganium and stepped right behind a girl with long white hair, "Helloooo, my name’s Sashley and I just saw you talking! I’m kinda bored right now and need something to do, sooo, whatcha talking about?"
 
"Nice to meet you, Luna." Nate gave a small wave to Umbre. "And as for your question, sorry I already have a dress and I already have plans. I'm working on my poke puff recipe. I'm not that good at cooking." She said as she laughed nervously. In order to hide her embarrassment, she buried her face in her mug and took a big gulp. Just then a girl with a Meganium from behind surprised her and the white chocolate. hot chocolate out of her nose. She started coughing while both Nate and Allister started laughing. Elizabeth turned around to see the girl while wiping off her hoodie. "Oh hello," she said in between coughs. "We were just talking about the upcoming performance"
 
Sashley

While resisting her giggles after seeing that girl try to hide her embarrassment by talking a big gulp of her mug, she also told Melody to move back a little to not get burned by the hot chocolate.

"Oh, the performance? I’m in it too! I’ve gotten 3 outfits already and I think there perfect for me! What’s your favorite part of the contest? What’s your Pokémon? What are your outfits?!" Sashley started spitting out questions. "Also, did you guys see that blue-haired person that walked in here and ran out?" Sashley was still trying to resist her giggles from the memory of her brother running out of the store with a flushed face.
 
Dolan turned and looked outside as it looked like it was getting darker outside ,and he knew he would eventually have to head back up to his room.He decided to stay in the lobby a little while longer and talk with the other patrons a little while longer. He grinned at Sol as he paid his tab and began talking to the other people there. Dolan didn't see any contestants walk through the hotel lobby area that day ,but he knew it was going to be challenging as was any contest in Lumiouse City.
 
Lizzie tried to recover from the embarrassment and the burning in her nose since her drink was still quite warm. She noticed Sashley talking but she didn't really understand a single thing she was saying. Lizzie looked at her watch and saw that by then it was about 5:00. "I'm sorry I didn't quite understand, also I have to go." She said as she returned Ken to his pokeball. She racewalked out of the cafe and took a breather. She looked over to Allister laughing. "Hey, quit laughing at me!" She said but the ghost pokemon couldn't contain himself. "At least we have enough time to start practicing." Said Lizzie.

Elizabeth started walking home with Allister right beside her. She got to the building and stopped inside. "Well I suppose it's time to start cooking." She said as she went to the refrigerator. She got out a shopping bag full of various baking supplies from the basics like flour and moomoo milk to honey, fruits and candies. "Let's get started." "Pent!" Said Allister.

"Yeah.." Nika replied to Lizzie. Leo ran over to the door on the cafè. "Leo really wants to go shopping. I promised that I would get him a top hat!" Nika said as she laughed a little.

Alex thought that the little Shinx that was running around was really cute. "Come on Elena, lets go." She said as she stood up. But when she looked around for her Espeon, it wasn't there. "Aah! Elena! Where did you go?" Alex said as she ran towards the restrooms.
 
The day looked like it was coming to an end ,and Sol looked fairly tired. Dolan went ahead and paid his tab then went over to the elevator to go to his room. As he got in he the button to his room ,but before the elevator doors closed he noticed someone run towards the elevator. Dolan held open the elevator letting then in. He smiled then as they pressed the button it eventually stopped at the top floor(fifth floor). Dolan got out and waved as him and Sol made their way down the hall and towards their room. As soon as they went into their room Dolan jumped on the bed and immediately turned on the tv and watched the news for a good thirty minutes before turning it off and heading fast asleep. As he did Sol laid on the couch as he enjoyed looking out the window as he slept.
