A rare sight in which tens of thousands of wild Chinchou migrate towards the remote Oval Island with the intention of evolving. It occurs once every five years."[/hider][hider=99+ New Messages]"The criminal organization, The Hand are rumored to have resurfaced after their crushing defeat to the Global Detective Agency over a decade ago. Their notorious logo has been spotted in metropolitan areas around the world. The question is, what could they be trying to get their five fingers on this time?"[/hider][hider=99+ New Messages]"Eurgh! Not this again - seriously, we shouldn't idolize these people!"[/hider][hider=99+ New Messages]"Lanturn, the light pokemon, also known as 'the deep-sea star' -"[/hider][hider=99+ New Messages]"Oval Island surely is the loneliest place I ever saw, not a neighbor in sight as far as the eye can see.

I didn't think there'd be cameras back here too."[/hider][hider=99+ New Messages]"So Oval Island has this huge volcano right in the middle shaped like an egg, that's why it got the name. I heard it's actually an ancient pokemon egg from a time when they were bigger than buildings. Also, it emits electromagnetic signals every couple of years or so. There's something up with Oval Island, for sure."[/hider][hider=99+ New Messages]"...

[colour=#ffde38]Welcome aboard the SS Lugia, an enormous cruise ship currently hosting the pentennial World Pokemon Contest. Top trainers from around the globe have gathered to compete for the title of World Champion Coordinator. This event is highly prestigious and publicized. Many of the contestants are recognizable celebrities, renowned for their skill in raising pokemon. Amongst the passengers are the ship's crew, security, cameramen, journalists and wealthy fans. 

The SS Lugia has multiple stadiums, training rooms, restaurants, luxury spas and botanical gardens, all equipped with cameras to record the event. The World Pokemon Contest is the peak of reality T.V. in the pokemon world. Some even criticize it as a vapid media frenzy. The SS Lugia's destination is Oval Island, set to arrive promptly in seven days in order to coincide with the River of Stars, a mass migration of Chinchou.

What will happen when the championship is interrupted by a criminal organization and the SS Lugia apparently vanishes in what can only be described as a paranormal occurrence?[/colour]
