"Not much to say."
"The next ones to invite are our three judges, Mr. Contesta, Mr. Sukizo and Hearthome City's Nurse Joy."
"In addition we have a special guest judge."
"That is our Hearthome City's Gym Leader, who is also a powerful and gorgeous master, Ms. Fantina!"
When the lights came on, Fantina stood on the stage in a purple dress, with a Drifloon beside her, making her overall temperament even more charming.
Then Fantina spoke impure Mandarin in the direction of the contestants area.
"Ai Ruibati, hello everyone, my name is Fantina, and I will serve as the special judge of the competition."
"I will strictly evaluate each player's professionalism and gorgeousness, so players please show your Pokémon charm."
As Fantina finished his speech, the much-anticipated Hearthome Contest also kicked off.
The first person to play was a teenager, and he sent out the Water-type combination of Buizel and Poliwhirl.
The smooth combination of Bubble Beam and Icy Wind can be said to be good.
If compared to Floaroma Contest who participated before Dawn, this performance can be said to be very outstanding.
But.
When each of the four judges scored 10 points and the total score was 40 points, the final result of the first boy was.
35.2 points, an extremely dangerous number, it can be said that it is difficult to enter the second round.
"Ah, could this be the wrong score?"
"Yes, I saw the performance was very good."
"That is to say, I think it can be higher."
It was fine in the audience, and the reaction wasn't too big, but the contestants in the candidate room couldn't help but make a sound.
As the saying goes, laymen only watch the excitement, while experts watch the door. A performance of this level only scored 35.2 points, which really surprised them.
The young man on the stage seemed dissatisfied with his score and looked at the judges with puzzled eyes.
"This player, although the Bubble Beam and Icy Wind you just had are good ideas, the connection between the moves is not smooth. You need to go back and practice more."
"Please note the remaining players, because the rules of this competition are different, we will be relatively strict in scoring. We will also pay attention to the tacit understanding and coordination between the two Pokémon."
"So for the boys and girls behind you, please be prepared and remember to show your best side."
And this time the special guest Fantina picked up the microphone and started to explain to him.
It also gave an explanation to the players in the player room.
"Hey~, the difficulty has been upgraded."
"Yes, the competition has become fiercer. It's really a headache."
"It seems that this Hearthome Ribbon is not easy to get."
Everyone in the contestant area couldn't help but speak out after hearing Fantina's explanation, and a tense atmosphere suddenly filled the entire candidate room.
This made Dawn, who thought he was well prepared, feel a little anxious in his heart at this moment.
And this first player is equivalent to showing off to everyone, and if nothing else happens, he will bid farewell to the second round.
The next person to appear was Mr. Nando. Relying on the music played by Sing of Kricketune and Grass Whistle of Roserade, and then paired with his own recorder, the performance reached perfection.
The artistic content is very high!
This made all the audience present including the judges unable to help but close their eyes and listen to this piece of music by themselves.
At the end of the song, the four judges gave Nando a final score of 39 points, currently ranking first.
"Mr. Nando is so strong, he actually got such a high rating."
"This is indeed his strength."
Dawn and Zoey in the candidate room were both happy that Nando could get such a high score, but at the same time they were worried about their own performance.
"Damn it, where did this Nando come from!"
Jessie looked at Nando with an unhappy expression, feeling that his Ribbon was about to be lost.
Then return to the competition site.
As the contestants performed one by one, the audience's enthusiasm was gradually ignited.
Kenny still has two brushes, the double Fighting type performance of Machoke and Breloom, the fist-to-flesh performance is very consistent with the theme of Pokémon.
The unique combination of Fury Swipes and Mud Bomb performed by Zoey's Glameow and Shellos fully demonstrates the connection and gorgeousness of the skills.
And Jessie's Cacnea and Mime Jr. used Mimic, and simultaneously released Pin Missile's self-abuse performance on themselves. On the contrary, strangely, it received great praise, and even the judges thought it was very good.
These performances satisfied the audience's attention very well.
The audience now just thinks, MD, the ticket price this time is so worth it. Is this what I can watch by spending dozens of Pokémon League Coin?
As the performance came to the second half, when Xiaoyun was getting a little sleepy, host Marian finally read Dawn's name.
"Please invite the next contestant, contestant Dawn, please come on stage to perform."
Dawn, wearing a formal dress, came to the center of the stage and first glanced in the direction of Xiaoyun.
In fact, on a stage like Hearthome City, you can't even see anyone in the audience clearly, but it seems like you received some encouragement, and the nervousness you felt just now no longer exists.
Then, at the reminder of Marian, he threw out his two Poké Ball.
"Bloom your own beauty, Buneary, Swablu."
After Buneary and Swablu appeared, white clouds drifted by, and they came to the stage cutely.
"Use Cotton Guard."
The cotton on Swablu's wings began to increase, and then pieces of cotton were thrown onto the playing field and gathered into a pile.
"Use Ice Beam."
Following Dawn's instructions, Buneary condensed ice-blue light from between his hands and began to freeze the cotton thrown by Swablu into ice cubes.
That's it?
Just freeze the cotton into blocks, which has no technical content.
Just when the audience and judges didn't know what they were doing, Dawn continued.
"Very good, Buneary uses Dizzy Punch."
"Swablu, Tailwind."
Buneary raised the two rabbit ears on his head and carved directly with the ears under the astonished eyes of everyone, polishing the ice cubes frozen with cotton into the shape of clouds.
Then Swablu flapped its wings when Buneary was finishing polishing. A stream of air flowed from the wings, and the arena was filled with a light breeze mixed with ice chips.
In the center of the arena is smooth white cloud ice.
"That's it, Swablu uses Feather Dance."
And before it was over, the Swablu flying in the air scraped off white feathers and combined them with Icy Wind. The two reflected each other and were very beautiful.
Just when everyone thought the performance was over, the voice of Dawn came again.
"Finally, gather the feathers together."
"Buneary, jump up."
"Meter."
"Holy Angel Wings, done!"
As Dawn finished speaking, the effect of Tailwind began to fade, and what appeared before everyone's eyes was the pure white wings made of pure white feathers controlled by Swablu, just like the wings of an angel.
And below is Buneary standing on the ice shell that has just been wrapped with cotton in the shape of a cloud. It looks like a large cloud.
(I don't know why many people recently asked the author to add Cynthia to the heroine, so I want to ask everyone if they want to become a double heroine. If so, the comment area will deduct 1.)
