get nervous. But I'm also really excited! Aren't you?

EEVEE: [UNSURE]

SERENA: Lots and lots of people are going to watch us

perform. Isn't that wonderful?

Freestyle Performance, okay?

EEVEE: [EXCITED]

PALERMO: There's that girl.

JESSIE: So this is the stage? I'll just show off

my giga-gorgeousness and win this time for sure!

JAMES: But if you want to perform in

the Freestyle Performance, you first have to get

through the Theme Performance.

MEOWTH: That's the rule

JESSIE: You leave that to me.

EEVEE: [WAKING]

EEVEE: [NERVOUS]

PANCHAM: [CONCERNED]

SERENA: Eevee?

SERENA: We'll all stay with you until you can relax, okay.

Right here by your side. Don't worry.

EEVEE: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JESSIE: My only real challenge will be the Theme Performance.

As long as I get through that

MEOWTH: You will because we're gonna find out what the theme

is ahead of time!

JESSIE: You're right. And that is called wisdom.

JAMES: Pure genius.

JAMES: Which one is it?

JESSIE: It's got to be one of these.

MEOWTH: Oy vey. This isn't it either!

JAMES: Come ON!

JESSIE: Come ON!

JAMES: We've run far enough.

We should be fine now.

MEOWTH: That was some freak-out!

JESSIE: And who do you think created this mess?!

MEOWTH: Hey, whaddaya got there?

JESSIE: Who knows? I just grabbed whatever was nearby

JAMES: What a strange drawing.

JESSIE: Maybe this is some kind of hint.

MEOWTH: Yeah, but what hint? Maybe

it's an Ekans with a Mamoswine jammed into its mouth

JAMES: To my eye, it looks like a UFO.

JESSIE: So it's a performance from another planet?!

JESSIE: Wait! Maybe this is some kind of Pokémon hat!

MEOWTH: You may be right! I'll bet they're gonna test

your fashion sense!

JESSIE: I'm sure of it. I'll make the perfect Pokémon hat!

BONNIE: I got here first!

NINI: It's my new friend.

GOTHITA: [GREETING]

BONNIE: So cute!

POKEDEX: Gothita. The Fixation Pokémon. Gothita's

psychic powers are made stronger by its ribbon-like feelers.

When Gothita becomes fixated on something, it's looking at

something only it can see.

SERENA: You're entering the Showcase, right?

NINI: Of course! One more Princess Key to go.

And this is where I'll get it!

SERENA: One more for me, too!

SERENA: I'm not gonna lose!

NINI: Neither am I!

EEVEE: [NERVOUS]

NINI: I haven't seen Eevee before

EEVEE: [STARTLED]

SERENA: That's right! Eevee's an amazing dancer.

NINI: Is something wrong?

EEVEE: [SCARED]

SERENA: Eevee's shy. It has to get to know you.

And that might take a while.
