Inspired by the remixed Contests in BD/SP and the new magical girl anime "Waccha Primagi", here's a new kind of Pokemon performance journey tale to enjoy!
Episode 0: The Birth of Prismusic
In a Pokemon world not too much different from the one you know, the hottest and most popular form of entertainment is Pokemagia, a stage show best described as one part magic show, one part Pokemon Contest, one part dance, and one part theater to create a dazzling showcase of the bond between trainer and Pokemon. Since Pokemagia shows are often demanding, Pokemon that participate in Pokemagia can often go toe to toe with Pokemon raised to battle, and some have made their mark in both the League and the Pokemagia stage.
Both boys and girls participate in Pokemagia, and great magie--that's a trainer that participates in Pokemagia-- are treated like rockstars. Every magie has their own unique style, so no two magie will ever be alike. it is possible for magie to inherit tricks and illusions from another magie, usually a teacher passing down their best material to magie in training.
Magie are trained in a master and apprentice relationship, with a magie in training learning how to dance, act, use stage combat, and combine their own natural power with their Pokemon to create tricks and illusions. Once the master feels the apprentice is ready, they perform an Exhibition--a specific type of Pokemagia show meant for the magie in training to demonstrate what they have learned in a full Pokemagia show. If the show goes over well, the magie is allowed to perform on their own. Great magie often go on to have long and successful careers, and even magie that have stepped down from the stage are still revered.
My friends and I are all highly skilled magie, and are well loved and well liked in the Pokemagia community. But when we learned about the Diamond Melody Grand Prix, and the long road to reach it--and that the competition was open to single magie and magie teams--we decided to form a team, and take our Pokemagia skills to the next level, win or lose.
This is our story...
This is the tale of our road to the Diamond Melody Grand Prix, and how we were immortalized as Eternal magie...
The Fireside Theater in Pewter City roared with applause as Brock arrived onstage to begin his planned Pokemagia show, After taking a bow for the audience, he next snapped to conjure a glowing fireball over an ethereal Celtic melody. "Pyros Spiritum!" he called as he heaved the fireball skyward.
Applause and cheers filled the air as a beautiful nine-tailed fox Pokemon emerged in a burst of flames. Brock snapped again, this time creating a glowing ball of ice. "Nix Spiritum!"
More cheers filled the air as a white nine tailed fox Pokemon landed by the tan skinned boy's side. The house band picked up the pace as the Alolan Ninetales fired a rainbow beam of cold into a ball of earth energy, creating a sparkling icy rose!
In the audience, Brock's companions watched as their friend and his two faithful Ninetales worked together to show off beautiful illusions and amazing feats of magic, skill, and power. "That's beautiful!" Dawn raved as Brock and Hinata combined their powers of fire and earth to create a whorl of fiery flower petals.
"I know...maybe if we all practiced enough, we could even compete in the Diamond Melody Grand Prix together." Misty explained as she watched Brock create whorls and showers of flower petals by humming along with the house band. "Last time I checked, teams are allowed to compete."
"Are you sure we could even hold up to some of the best magie in the world?" Ash gasped at his orange haired companion's bold assumption. "The only one of us that might even stand a chance at that level of competition is Dawn!"
"How do you know that's true if you don't try?" Misty assured the nervous black haired boy next to her. "Signups for the Diamond Melody are open now, so once Brock's done with his show, we should sign up! All we really need is to decide on a team captain and a name for the team--whoever we decide on as captain will handle the paperwork to sign up."
Ash thought for a moment as Brock swayed and weaved through whorls of rose petals on the stage. "Since this is your idea, I have no qualms with you being captain."
"You'd make the best captain, since you sound like you've competed before." May agreed as she retied the red Poke Ball bandanna crowning her brown hair.
Misty nodded. "Okay...as your team captain, we need to decide on a name for the team. If Brock's okay with our journey to the Diamond Grand Prix, I'll take care of the paperwork over the next few days.
An idea came to Ash as Brock snapped, transforming into a green, white, silver and gold minstrel costume. "How about...Prismusic?"
Affirmative murmurs wafted around the group in approval. "I'll run that by Brock once the show's over--once we get his okay, we'll all practice our feats and illusions for possibly the biggest stage any of us has ever been on!"
To Be Continued...
