BRAIXEN

PANCHAM

SERENA: This time we're going to win for sure!

BRAIXEN!

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!

NARRATOR: The morning of the Dendemille Town Pokémon Showcase

has finally arrived, but Serena has a slight case of nerves.

GRACE: Today's the day. Good luck out there, honey.

SERENA: Thanks! Braixen and Pancham are fired up.

Make sure you watch us! Okay?

BRAIXEN!

PANCHAM!

GRACE: Right!

SERENA: Look at this!

SERENA: Ta-da! This is the pretty dress I'm going to wear!

GRACE: Isn't that just a little too flashy?

SERENA: If that's what my mom thinks, it's perfect!

GRACE: Oh, Serena...

SERENA: That's not all.

This dress was designed by none other than Valerie!

GRACE: Well That's a tremendous help!

Now dear, be sure you give it all you've got.

Be one with your Pokémon!

SERENA: Mhm. Yeah!

BRAIXEN

BONNIE: Look at all these people!

SERENA: Let's see Where do I register?

MIETTE: Serena, is that you?

SERENA: Miette!!

MIETTE: Long time no see, everyone!

ASH: Yeah, long time!

CLEMONT: So, how have you been, Miette?

MIETTE: Great!

BONNIE: Hi, Slurpuff! Good to see you!

SLURPUFF

BONNIE: You're a Meowstic, right?

MEOWSTIC

ASH: So are you entering the Pokémon Showcase, too?

MIETTE: Of course! How could I not enter?

SERENA: I'm not surprised.

MIETTE: You cut your hair.

SERENA: Yeah, so what?

MIETTE: So why'd you do that?

Something big happen in your life?

SERENA: What are you talking about?!

SERENA: Forget that!

I'm all ready to compete in this performance!

And I'm not going to lose like I did with the Poké Puffs!

BRAIXEN

MIETTE: Well, the same goes for me.

MIETTE: Now hear this!

We're going to settle things once and for all! And then...

Remember I told you I might have a chat with Ash.

MIETTE: Later! Bye!

ASH: Miette sure seems ready to go.

PIKACHU

SERENA: I'm ready to go, too!

ASH: Right! That's the spirit, Serena!

BONNIE: Ash can be so dense

DEDENNE!

CLEMONT: Bonnie, what are you talking about?

BONNIE: Of course. You're the same.

JAMES: So. They're entering the Showcase, too!

JESSIE: What difference does it make?

I'm going home with the big win this time for sure.

MEOWTH: With all that special training we should

go home with ten wins!

WOBBUFFET

CROWD

PIERRE: Bonjour, all you Kalos region lovers of Pokémon!

Welcome to the Dendemille Pokémon Showcase Rookie Class!

We're all set to go, so get ready!

PIERRE: I'm honored to be your guide, because I just adore the

roar of the crowd, and the smiles on all your faces.

My name's Monsieur Pierre!

PIERRE: Competing today for the ultimate title of Kalos Queen

will be a bevy of beautiful young ladies performing

right before your eyes!

PIERRE: And then... the winner

PIERRE: will be awarded the coveted Princess Key!

PIERRE: Performers who win three Princess Keys earn the

right to participate in the exciting Master Class!

PIERRE: And it is from the elegant performers competing in

the Master Class that the Kalos Queen will ultimately be chosen!

PIERRE: Alors, will the future Kalos Queen come from

among these fair ladies?!

PIERRE: You won't be able to look away because the

spellbinding battle for the Princess Key starts now!

CROWD

PIERRE: For our Theme Performance, these talented

Pokémon performers will make delicious and beautiful

Poké Puff treats right in front of your very eyes!

PIERRE: Now, it's time to meet our first group

of three performers!

ASH: Look! It's Miette!

BONNIE: Yay, Miette! You'll be great!

PIERRE: Our judgesPokémon Connoisseur Santo, Poké Puff

Pâtissier Gena, and showcase expert Delilahwill choose

the performer and her Pokémon who will go on to

the Freestyle Performance.

BONNIE: Gena's a keeper, no doubt!

She'll take care of my big brother!

CLEMONT: I told you not to do this a million times!

PIERRE: Alors...

PIERRE: It's time to make the Poké Puffs...

PIERRE: Now, if you please!

MIETTE: No one makes Poké Puffs as yummy as I do.

MIETTE: Okay, Slurpuff!

SLURPUFF!

MIETTE: Thanks very much.

ASH: Slurpuff got to pick the milk?

CLEMONT: Slurpuff has an extremely sensitive sense

of smell. I think Miette had Slurpuff choose to make sure

she uses the freshest ingredients she can.

ASH: Hey, that sounds impressive.

BONNIE: It sure does!

MIETTE: Meowstic? It's your turn.

MEOWSTIC

MIETTE: Awesome! That's how it's done, Meowstic!

PIERRE: It's obvious Miette and her Pokémon know how to make

Poké Puffs in perfect sync!

PIERRE: So! There are only a few minutes left.

Time to sprint to the finish!

MIETTE: It's all done.

PIERRE: Time's up!

PIERRE: Now we come to the judging!

DELILAH: These Poké Puffs smell so fragrant! They're exquisite!

FURFROU

SANTO: These are all definitely a work of art.

DEDENNE!

BONNIE: They look yummy, huh?

CLEMONT: You've got a great sense of smell, too!

CHESPIN

PIKACHU

DEDENNE

PIERRE: It appears the judges have made their choice.

So let's find out the winner!

PIERRE: The performer moving on will be...

MIETTE

PIERRE: the lovely Miette!

MIETTE: But of course!

ASH: Way to go, Miette!

SERENA: That Miette is a true genius at making Poké Puffs...

PANCHAM?!

BRAIXEN!

SERENA: Right. We can do it, too!

PIERRE: And now it's time for our next group of performers!

JAMES: Come on, Jessilia!

Destroy every one of those losers!!

PIERRE: Make your Poké Puffs, if you please!

JESSIE: So tell me. Did you take care of what we talked about?

MEOWTH: Yeah, and how.

I found out what flavors the judges' Pokémon

like best so don't sweat it!

MEOWTH: Mime Jr. likes

spicy grub, so we'll use a Tamato Berry topping.

MEOWTH: Furfrou likes aromatic grub, so we'll use

tons of yummy-smelling stuff.

And Jigglypuff goes ga-ga for sweets!

JESSIE: Meowth, you're so smart!

MEOWTH: You know? I agree.

PSYDUCK

SNEASEL

JESSIE: Now we decorate.

JESSIE: You can leave the artistic part to me!

PIERRE: And finally we come to the judging!

SANTO: My. This is quite an unusual decoration...

MEOWTH: I knew if Jessie did it, she'd mess things up

DELILAH: Well, the Pokémon certainly seem

to adore the flavors.

GENA: The most important thing about Poké Puffs is that the

Pokémon truly love them.

PIERRE: All right, the performer going to the next

stage is... Jessilia!!

STAFF GIRL: Hey Performer Serena, time for your entrance!

BRAIXEN

PANCHAM

SERENA: Okay! Here goes!

ASH: "Who's that Pokémon?"

ASH: "It's Plusle and Minun!"

CROWD

PIERRE: Ladies and Gentlemen... Get ready for our final group!

BONNIE: Yippee! Serena's up now!

ASH: Show them how it's done, Serena!

PIKACHU

CLEMONT: Relax, Serena, just relax...

CHESPIN

CROWD

SERENA: It's all right. Be confident.

You've practiced over and over for this day...

ASH: Great!

ASH: These are awesome!

PIKACHU

SERENA: I'll make the greatest Poké Puffs ever.

For everyone's who's ever supported me!

PIERRE: It's time to make the Poké Puffs...

Now, if you please!

SERENA: You're doing great.

The flower nectar is our secret ingredient!

PANCHAM

PANCHAM

SERENA: Ready, Braixen?

BRAIXEN!

PIERRE: Serena and her team are displaying some

impressive teamwork!

PIERRE: But no one's giving an inch!

This is a true top-notch battle!

PIERRE: Time's up!

PIERRE: So which performer will move on to the Freestyle

Performance?! That brings us to the judging!

PANCHAM!

BRAIXEN!

SERENA: You're both right. I did everything that I could do!

SANTO: Look at this.

The colors, shapes, and aromas are quite impressive.

GENA: Yes. Truly inviting.

Every Poké Puff clearly demonstrates it was

created with love.

DELILAH: Oh my. This is going to be a very difficult choice.

BONNIE: Please win it...

GENA: Yet the winner is clear, don't you think?

DELILAH: I would say so.

PIERRE: The judges have made their decision!

PIERRE: The performer moving on to the next stage is...

SERENA: Please, please, please, please, please

PIERRE: Performer... Serena! Congratulations!

SERENA: Yay!

ASH: That's so awesome! Serena's moving on to round two!

GRACE: She pulled it off!

SHAUNA: Serena's the best!

SYCAMORE: Marvelous!

ARIA: Serena!

SERENA: So we've cleared the first hurdle!

BRAIXEN

CLEMONT: Whoa Was I nervous. Wow!

CLEMONT: No! Chespin, stay here!

ASH: I'm sure Serena will make you some when it's over.

I wanna eat some, too!

PIKACHU

DEDENNE

MIETTE: She was great.

CROWD

PIERRE: Thank you for waiting.

PIERRE: Next, it's the Freestyle Performance you've

all been waiting for!

PIERRE: Here are the five young ladies who made it past

the Theme Performance!

PIERRE: Guaranteed to show you their greatest performances yet!

PIERRE: First, a mysterious beauty, mixed with

a touch of danger.

So fasten your seatbelts and prepare for performer Jessilia!

SLURPUFF

CROWD

ASH: Miette's pretty cool, too!

BONNIE: Well, don't forget Serena's teamwork is great, too!

ASH: You bet it is! After all the hard work she's put in

BRAIXEN

PANCHAM

SERENA: Not again. It's just like last time.

SERENA: I've got it.

So that's when I came up with the idea to cut my hem!

CLEMONT: Wow that was really clever! Nice job up there!

I guess I should tell her how sorry I am.

competition, either.
