Lumiose City has aĺways been known for its tourism, drawing a sizable crowd of visitors year round. However, today was surely going to be a day for the record books. People from all around the world were making the trek to Lumiose today in hopes of witnessing a truly unique event: the Kalos Invitational Tournament. Featuring Trainers hand-picked by a committee of Gym Leaders and Pokemon Association officials, this competition would give a select few trainers a golden opportunity at recognition. Talent scouts had been arriving throughout the week, eager to see if these Trainers are worthy of the titles they aspire to earn. The tournament was due to start within the hour, and the last of the invited Trainers were sure to arrive any moment now.
Outside of Prism Tower, some crowds had formed to watch Exhibition Battles. Tournament officials had announced that anyone who could defeat an invited trainer would be allowed to take their place in the tournament. Of course, the odds of this actually happening were extremely low, as the invited trainers were all exceptionally talented. The exhibition battles were really just an excuse for the invited trainers to warm up and give the talent scouts a preview of what was to come.
One of the battles was creating a bit of excitement amongst passerby. Michael was battling a particularly determined challenger, and it actually seemed to be anyone’s fight. The challenger had sent out his Sawsbuck to battle Slasher (Michael’s Sceptile), and the two had been trading blows for a while now. After a few more exchanges, Slasher’s whole body began to emit a green light, warranting a smirk from Michael as the Sawsbuck charged again.
“I was wondering how long you’d take to push him into Overgrow. Just in time too, since I’m bored. Slasher, use Frenzy Plant!”
The Sceptile immediately leapt back, eyes glowing a bright green as he slammed his fists against the ground, causing large spiky roots to shoot out the ground and strike the defenseless deer pokemon. It flew back from the impact, landing beside its trainer before fainting. The cheering from the crowd was almost deafening as Michael returned Slasher to his Pokeball, taking a bow before walking away towards Prism Tower.
(OOC: You can choose how to introduce your character. They can be finishing an exhibition battle, be in the crowd watching a battle, or be arriving in Lumiose now. There’ll be an announcement when it’s time for them to head to the Tower)
