"The next person to appear is the player with a unique style, Jessie Lina!"
Spotlight moves again.
"I am Jessie Lina, everyone should support me."
Jessie walked onto the stage with a step that he didn't recognize, and kept blowing kisses to the audience and judges.
In the audience, Ash tilted his head. "I always feel like I have seen this person somewhere?"
"Pickup?" Pikachu also scratched his head.
Don't know, can't recognize it.
Xiaoyun couldn't help but complain.
Did you do this on purpose? You can't even recognize me even if you're wearing big-framed glasses.
"Let me show you what real art is!"
The stage lights suddenly became dim.
Jessie shook his head and raised his hands high. "Gourgeist, Will-O-Wisp! Meowth Smokescreen bombs are ready! Give me a blast!"
"Pumpkin~"
Gourgeist was ignited with purple fire, scattered around the stage.
Meowth sighed, took out several balls from under his cloak, and threw them on the ground.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The dense Smokescreen exploded instantly and quickly filled half of the stage.
Combined with Will-O-Wisp, it creates a hazy and gloomy tone.
"Shadow Ball! Fury Swipes!"
Gourgeist condensed several Shadow Ball, which collided and exploded in front of it.
At the same time, Meowth was intimidated by Jessie's eyes, and Bite rushed into Smokescreen with his teeth, using his only move, Fury Swipes!
"I tried my best, meow!"
Click, click, click!
When Shadow Ball explodes, the cutting airflow generated by Fury Swipes combined with Meowth.
The energy mixed with Will-O-Wisp exploded into strange purple fireworks one after another in Smokescreen!
Fireworks kept blooming, with a strange beauty like a dark fairy tale.
"This... uses explosions to create energy fireworks. Although the principle is rough, the visual effect is indeed unique and has a primitive Tackle power."
Baxi rubbed his temples and gave his own evaluation.
Ai'er couldn't find a suitable adjective for a moment.
She doesn't quite understand horror aesthetics.
"Ahem..."
Just when the judges were struggling, Jessie's performance entered the most shocking stage.
She cleared her throat and started Sing.
If that could be called Sing.
"Da~Guan~dong~~ is~my~home~town~~~"
"The singing voice is so beautiful and the appearance is so beautiful~"
Every word is out of tune, every note is frantically testing on the edge of breaking.
Hyper Voice If you can't go up, just pull hard, if the bass can't come down, just howl.
It's like smoking a certain Pheobe king's peripherals.
There was dead silence in the auditorium.
Not shocked, but... embarrassed.
It was sharp, trembling, and it would not be an exaggeration to say it was like a ghost crying or a wolf howling.
"What am I listening to? Why am I here suffering like this?"
"Singing can be down to earth, but it cannot be down to earth."
"What kind of hellish art is this?"
"What kind of battle strategy is this?"
Meowth was going crazy on the court. "Help, meow, the judges are ringing the bell! I can't stand it anymore!"
James, who was selling goods, was also stunned, and the happy Alto Mare dropped from his hand:
"No, no, who messed with her again?"
Gourgeist had given up thinking and silently typed out Will-O-Wisp, with the expression changing to (╥╥), pretending that he was just a jack-o'-lantern without emotions.
Hear nothing, know nothing.
Serena looked blank. "Is this part of the performance? Or is it some new art form?"
Bonnie had already buried his face in Clemont's arms. "I don't want to listen! What a terrible sound!"
Xiaoyun The corner of his mouth twitched, all he could say was this.
Ah, it's so cool...
However, it has to be said that under this specific, eerie stage background,
Jessie This sound fits the atmosphere inexplicably.
A funny, weird sense of fit that makes one's head tingle and makes one want to laugh.
"Drunk~the moon~is bright~warm~~my~heart~~~~!!!"
Finally, this auditory torture came to an abrupt end with Jessie, a broken sound that can be said to be the limit of human beings, like a guitar with broken strings.
Smokescreen disperses, Will-O-Wisp goes out.
Meowth and Gourgeist were panting and looked exhausted.
Jessie put on a finishing pose that he thought was extremely elegant, like the death of a black swan.
Kneel down on one knee, put one hand on your chest, and stretch your other hand to the sky, looking at the judges and the audience expectantly.
"Does it sound good?"
There was silence.
It's really the kind of silence that can be heard when a needle drops.
The judges looked at each other in confusion, the expressions on their faces were indescribably complicated.
Finally, Pierre coughed dryly and broke the silence. "Well, it's a very unique performance. Contestant Jessie Lina once again showed us the infinite possibilities of art."
Ba Xi rubbed her temples and tried to organize her words: "Creativity... is very bold, bringing different elements to the stage. This spirit of experimentation is worth encouraging, but in terms of the balance of beauty, perhaps it can be carefully considered..."
To put it bluntly, this performance is also a very unique one in Ba Xi's commentary career.
Ai'er forced a smile, her mouth a little stiff. "Let, it's impressive."
As for whether it's a good impression or a psychological shadow, I don't know.
Other judges also bravely commented:
"It's quite unique."
"Very exciting."
"Opens the door to a new world."
Jessie looks forward to the judges:
"Really? Then let me play another one?"
Judges: "No need to!"
Host Pierre quickly smoothed things over. "I see Miss Jessie Lina and her Pokémon are also tired. Please go backstage to rest for now. Next, let's invite the last contestant!"
Jessie then walked off the stage with some reluctance, muttering as he walked, "Really, I just opened my voice and haven't sung enough yet. I don't know how to appreciate it."
In the audience, Emilia's mouth twitched:
"Singing so well, does this person's side job include dubbing backgrounds in haunted houses?"
"Finally, let's welcome the shining star from Sinnoh, contestant Dawn!!"
"Oh!!!"
The applause from the audience instantly became extremely enthusiastic, mixed with whistles and cheers.
After the first two rounds, Dawn has conquered the vast majority of the audience with its strength.
Dawn walked onto the stage calmly and put on a new set of performance clothes.
The main color is deep starry sky blue, embellished with silver Cyllene patterns, and the skirt is designed into a gradient tulle that flutters gently with the steps.
Don't worry about whether you win or not, just be fully equipped!
She didn't speak, but gently threw two Poké Ball.
Bang! Bang!
"Kou Jie~"
On the left, accompanied by the classic laughter, Gengar emerges with his iconic big mouth and a cunning light shining in his small eyes.
On the right side, Shield Forme's green and gray figure immediately appeared, and the golden single eye in the center scanned the entire scene, bringing with it the pressure of a king.
"Gengar and Aegislash? This combination is rarely used!"
"Two Ghost-type? What theme is this going to be? A Halloween party?"
"The attributes don't match, Ghost type+steel? How can she combine these two styles?"
"But it feels so cool! The contrast is cute!"
At the judges' table, Instructor Ba Xi leaned forward slightly, his eyes full of interest.
This combination is interesting.
Queen Aier also sat up straight, her eyes fixed Lock-On Dawn: "Come on Dawn, let me see where your limit is!"
On the stage, Dawn closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and said softly:
"Gengar--Trick Room."
"Kou Jie!"
Gengar grinned, and his red eyes shone brightly!
It opened its arms and made a spreading motion with its hands in front of its chest.
In an instant, with it as the center, a translucent cubic space rapidly expanded, covering the entire performance area in an instant!
And just after Trick Room is formed, the second command of Dawn is seamlessly connected:
"Qinghui, King's Shield!"
"Sword!"
Aegislash The golden single eye in the center of the shield burst out with dazzling light!
Usually, King's Shield is Barrier that deploys an absolute defense.
But at this moment, Qing Hui did not use his energy to build Barrier, but injected all his energy into the stage floor under his feet!
Buzz--!
A golden line of energy spread rapidly along the ground, forming a huge Illuminate emblem in the center of the stage!
Pierre shouted excitedly, "Oh my god! Miss Dawn's Aegislash can actually convert the defensive energy of King's Shield into a visible mark. This requires extremely strong energy control."
"Now--"
The voice of Dawn sounded again:
"Gengar, Shadow Ball! Qinghui, use Sacred Sword!"
"Kou Jie~"
Gengar put his hands together in front of his chest, and the rich Ghost-type energy gathered crazily, condensing into a huge Shadow Ball that was bigger than Gengar himself!
But instead of launching it, it held it up with both hands like a small black hole and suspended it in the center of Trick Room.
At the same time, Qinghui instantly switched to Blade Forme!
The sharp sword came out of its sheath and turned into a huge golden Sacred Sword!
The light of Shadow Ball and Sacred Sword began to blend, and the black shadow and golden holy light penetrated each other.
Under the effect of Trick Room, light and shadow began to flow contrary to the laws of physics.
The shadow floats upward, the light sinks downward, and the two form a vortex of light and shadow in mid-air!
"Expand it! You Pluto quan!"
As Dawn spreads its arms.
Gengar suddenly threw Shadow Ball high into the sky! Qing Hui swung his sword upward at the same time!
Jianguang catches up with Shadow Ball!
Click!!!
Shadow Ball blooms at the top!
The energy of the explosion was restrained and shaped by Sacred Sword's sword energy, turning into countless blurry Ghost type shadows!
At this moment, in the center of the stage, the huge royal emblem composed of King's Shield energy shines brightly!
Under the light, those Ghost types knelt down one after another and bowed their heads to the mark in the center of the stage!
Vortexes of light and shadow slowly swirl above them, providing a magical backdrop.
The majestic royal emblem shines brightly and accepts the worship of its subjects.
This scene is full of epic imagery.
It perfectly interprets the solemnity of a religious ceremony and the shocking power brought by the extreme contrast.
Baxi stared closely at the stage, looking at the scene in front of her in surprise, and murmured:
"It can actually balance two different energies, achieve unity in contradiction, and sublimate each other."
Ai'er also stood up, her red lips slightly opened, and her eyes full of shock.
As Kalos Queen, she had seen countless wonderful performances, but this scene before her still made her heart beat.
After a few seconds, Dawn gently raised his hand. "Go away."
Ghost type The shadow slowly dissipated.
The whirlpool of light and shadow gradually subsided.
Gengar floated back to the left side of Dawn, laughing, his scarlet eyes full of pride.
Aegislash returns to Shield Forme, standing on the right, majestic and silent, with only the golden single eye still retaining the sacred light from before.
In the center of the stage, only the fading light and shadow of the royal emblem remained, proving that what just happened was not Illusion.
Silence.
Ten seconds of almost vacuum silence.
Then there is
Wow!!!!
Applause, cheers, whistles, and screams all broke out at this moment.
"Dawn! Dawn! Dawn!"
"A miracle! This is a miracle!"
"This performance is worth my ticket!"
"It turns out that performances can reach this level. What have I seen before..."
Shauna watched from the audience, his eyes full of unabashed admiration. "It's so amazing, it's like a performance from another dimension."
Mi Rufei held her heart with both hands, as if stars were shining in her eyes. "Senior Dawn, you are indeed the best."
Amelia bit her lip, but in the end, she just whispered, "You are really good."
Although you are very unwilling to do so, you have to accept the fact that your strength is in front of you.
A layman watches the excitement, an expert watches the door.
This performance is not only a combination of moves, but also the corresponding strength to support it.
She can't do it yet, at least, not yet.
Jessie looked at the performance and opened his mouth, wanting to say something like "It's just that" or "I can do it too", but in the end he closed his mouth angrily.
First, the current Dawn is no longer the newcomer she was when Sinnoh competed with her for the top coordinator seat two years ago.
Now she is a true master of beauty.
Second, she is really unbeatable! This gap cannot be bridged by hard work!
Ash praised, "The current Dawn is even stronger than the previous Grand Festival."
Serena looked at Dawn in disbelief. "This is really amazing."
Three performances, each time playing completely different tricks, each time more shocking than the last!
How is this done?
She, a bastard, really can't understand it.
Bonnie hugged Dedenne and looked at Dawn with admiration. "Sister Dawn is now like a princess in a fairy tale, no, she should be a queen!"
At the judges' table, all the judges stood up. Not out of politeness, but because they couldn't help themselves!
Ba Xi clapped her hands again and again, and even though she was calm, she couldn't help but feel a little excited. "Whether it's technique, creativity, or gorgeousness, it's all perfect."
"There is no doubt that player Dawn has expanded the possibilities of Pokémon moves to a new level!"
Ai'er didn't speak, she just stood there, looking at Dawn who was panting slightly on the stage, her eyes filled with burning fighting spirit.
Sure enough, the final opponent is you.
Dawn, the top coordinator from Sinnoh.
Needless to say, the scores displayed on the big screen speak for themselves.
Dawn advanced to the finals with an overwhelming advantage!
Dawn bent down to thank the judges and audience.
Gengar playfully made a funny salute, while Aegislash tilted its shield slightly to show respect.
