[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: After rehearsing late into the night, our heroes

overslept and everyone rushed to the Pokémon Showcase venue so

Serena could register in time.

CLEMONT: So do you think Serena and Shauna made it?

ASH: I'm sure they're just fine.

PIKACHU

TIERNO: Though cutting it real close like that isn't

such a good idea.

JESSIE: How will you make this up to me if I'm too late?!

JAMES: Buy you a new alarm clock perhaps?!

MEOWTH: Drop it! Let's move!

WOBBUFFET!

PIKACHU?!

SERENA: Hey guys! We got here in the nick of time!

SHAUNA: We're so sorry we made you hurry

You're just a kid on a quest

To be the best of the best

Someday you're destined for power and glory

You know you're up to the test

There's only one way to tell this story

Be a hero!

Be a hero!

All the power is at your command

Face your fears and show you're a hero

The future of the world is in your hand

Pokémon!

SERENA: Well, off we go!

ASH: Yeah, good luck!

SERENA: Thanks. One more thing

EEVEE?

SERENA: Are you okay?

SERENA: Eevee? I'd like you to watch us do our very best, okay?

PANCHAM!

SERENA: You'll look after Eevee for me, right?

ASH: Sure! Leave it to us.

CLEMONT: All right, Bunnelby, come out!

CLEMONT: Please take care of Eevee, okay?

BUNNELBY!

BONNIE: It's gonna be just fine. Let's cheer for Serena together.

CHESPIN!

BUNNELBY?

CHESPIN

BONNIE: You know? Chespin never learns

ASH: Don't worry about Eevee.

You just go and give a great performance.

SERENA: Thanks a lot!

TIERNO: Shauna? Do your best!

SHAUNA: Count on it! You know that's the way I roll!

EEVEE

CROWD

CROWD

PIERRE: Ladies and gentlemen! The wait is over! It's time for

an enchanting presentation of performers and their Pokémon!

The Anistar Pokémon Showcase is about to begin!

PIERRE: It is I who will escort you through this lovely dream

world. My name? Monsieur Pierre!

PIERRE: You are about to witness an elegant competition

between performers who dream of becoming Kalos Queen!

And the winner gets this Princess Key magnifique!

SERENA: All right. First I make it through the Theme

Performance. After that, I win my second Princess Key!

NINI: Not quite. I'm gonna win!

SERENA: Nini!

NINI: Serena dear. Long time

SHAUNA: Is she a friend of yours?

SERENA: Yeah!

SHAUNA: What a nice surprise!

SERENA: I didn't know you'd be here.

Have you won a Princess Key?

NINI: Of course I haven't!

But I'll win it today, so technically I already have one.

I'm going to show you an incredible performance.

NINI: Hey, you're the Shauna? It was so fun watching the video

of your winning performance! You were wonderful.

SHAUNA: Thanks so much! That's nice of you.

NINI: I'm sorry, but I'm going to walk away from this Pokémon

Showcase the big winner.

SHAUNA: Good luck! Let's both do the very best we can!

NINI: Right!

PANCHAM

SMOOCHUM

NINI: How cute! It's easy to see how my Smoochum's really been

missing your Pancham.

SERENA: Yeah. I guess so.

SHAUNA: They're so friendly!

JESSIE: Aww That sweetie-pie Smoochum

is still as cute as ever!

FEMALE STAFF: All right, Nini, Lilly, and Serena.

You're all going to be up very shortly!

SERENA: Right!

SERENA: It looks like it won't be long now...

SHAUNA: Good luck, Serena! Nini, you too!

PIERRE: The Theme Performance for this showcase is

A Pokémon quiz!

PIKACHU?

ASH: I didn't know a Pokémon Showcase could have quizzes.

CLEMONT: It sounds like a battle of intellect.

PIERRE: Not only does the Kalos Queen have to be beautiful

She must also be intelligent. Beauty and intellect

Both are necessary to become Queen.

PIERRE: Only those performers who correctly answer three

questions will then move along to the Freestyle Performance.

CLEMONT: Makes sense.

ASH: That sounds hard

PIERRE: That's not all!

PIERRE: It's the performer who will answer the question, but

it's her Pokémon who will have to win her the chance! Performer

and Pokémon, working together to dominate the stage!

BONNIE: Sounds like fun!

DEDENNE!

PIERRE: And now, it's time to give a big round of applause to

your first group of performers!

CROWD

BONNIE: Look, it's Serena!

ASH: Wow, she's up first!

CLEMONT: Hey, look. Isn't that Nini standing next to Serena?

BONNIE: You're right!

TIERNO: Is Nini your friend, too?

ASH: Yeah, you bet ya!

PIERRE: Now! Our first trio of performers must

win the chance to answer

PIERRE: in the Stone Trial!

PIERRE: The performers' Pokémon retrieve a ball from inside

one of three boulders.

The Pokémon who returns to the quickest earns the chance

for its performer to answer the question!

PANCHAM!

SERENA: I'm counting on you Pancham

NINI: This will be a piece of cake for my Farfetch'd.

LILLY: You can do it, Solrock.

PIERRE: All right, my friends!

Let's get under way with round one of our Theme Performance!

the question! So, Nini, if you please

SERENA: Don't you worry, Pancham. You were amazing!
