[bowtiesrcool86]

Jiriya hit himself in confusion, taking a big chunk from Liam's points. Liam called for Gunk Shot.

[James Davy]

"Double Team!" Titania made several copies and the Gunk Shot made one of them vanish.

[bowtiesrcool86]

Liam's points dropped more. "Water Shuriken! spread it around!" Jiriya tossed the shuirken all over, hoping to eliminate the remainnig copies.

[James Davy]

The copies were eliminated and Shiranui lost some points. "Titania, time to battle from the other side! Use Skill Swap!" The Mega Gardevoir started using her psychic powers and both battlers started glowing with auras as Titania prepared to swap her Pixilate ability with Jiraiya's Protean ability.

[bowtiesrcool86]

Jiriya was now stuck as a pure water type. "Gunk Shot!"

[James Davy]

Titania was hit by the attack and time was on the verge of expiring. "Titania, Thunderbolt!" The Mega Gardevoir conjured an electric arc between her hands and let loose a bolt of electricity.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Substitute into Night Slash!" At the last moment, Jiriya conjured a substitute that recived the bad shock and burst. Jiriya appeared behind Tatiana with the dark typed blade in hand. Jiriya's maneuver lowered Shiranui's points slightly, Jiriya was about to hit the Gardevoir with the Night Slash when Lillian called "Time!" If that would have connected, Liam would have won but instead it was a draw. Jiriya was tired, and wouldn't take too much more. It would be down to the next attack to connect wins.
"Double Team into Night Slash!" Jiriya made copies of himself and they leapt in with the blades making a star-like shape and closing in on Titania.

[James Davy]

"Magical Leaf Salvo!" Titania conjured lots of iridescent leaves and sent them flying at the Greninja copies, each leaf sure to hit.

[bowtiesrcool86]

Jiriya was hit just when his blade was just an inch away from Titania, and he was knocked out. A red "x" appeared on the each of the monitors at the judges' desks. Shiranui was named the winner. Liam came out and helped Jiriya up, praising him for the good job before recalling him to his ball.

[James Davy]

Titania breathed a sigh of relief as she was recalled to her ball. "Another tenth of a second and you would have had me," commented Shiranui after receiving his ribbon.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Yeah, that was a close one." Lam said. After the ribbon was awarded, Liam went to get Jiriya and Smaug healed up.

[James Davy]

Shiranui went with Liam to get Higitsune and Titania healed up. "Our next stop, I believe, is the Battle Dome up near Lavender Town," he stated.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Yup, not to mention Lavender's Contest." Liam said.
"Alola boys!" came a voice from behind them. Liam turned his head to see his father approaching. Liam noticed that his father had developed a tan.

[James Davy]

"Alola to you, Mr. Coleman," replied Shiranui, assuming Mr. Coleman's greeting was an Alolan custom, "How was your trip?"

[bowtiesrcool86]

"It was amazing." Mr. Coleman replied as he took a seat. "I also got something for you boys." He said as he handed them both something that resembled a tiki. "This is an ornament that depicts a mysterious Pokémon that has been venerated as a guardian deity for an extremely long time in Alola." He explined. Liam thanked his father for it.

[James Davy]

Shiranui was curious about the ornament so he pulled out his Pokédex and scanned it. "Tapu Koko, the Land Spirit Pokémon. It confuses its enemies by flying too quickly for the eye to follow. It has a hair-trigger temper but forgets what made it angry an instant later."
"Alola must truly be fascinating if Pokémon such as Primarina and Tapu Koko are from there," commented Shiranui.

[bowtiesrcool86]

A Chancey brought the four Pokémon that the heroes combined put in for healing. Liam thanked the Chancey. Mr. Coleman said he had something he wanted to show the boys and asked them to follow him out.

[James Davy]

Shiranui got his Pokémon back and followed Mr. Coleman out, his curiosity renewed.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"I found two particular Pokémon in Alola. One that you will like son, and the other one is for my wife." He held a Heal Ball and a Luxury Ball in his hand. He tossed them in th air and they opened. from the Heal Ball came a Pokémon that resembled a lei, and from the other came a quadrupedal creature. It had a yellow heart shape ontop of its head. The top half of its body is a stone grey, while the bottom half was a darker grey. "These are Comfey and Jangmo-o." He explained. "Joys in Alola use Comfey along with the standard Chansey and Blissy." He explained.
Liam commented that Jangmo-o was cute.
"It's also a dragon." Mr. Coleman said. At that comment, Liam had the same facial expression as Ash does in this picture.

[James Davy]

Shiranui scanned the two new Pokémon. "Comfey, the Posy Picker Pokémon. It attaches flowers to its highly nutritious vine. This revitalizes the flowers, and they give off an aromatic scent."
"Jangmo-o, the Scaly Pokémon. It expresses its feelings by smacking its scales. Metallic sounds echo through the tall mountains where Jangmo-o lives."
"Looks like you just gained a new friend, Liam," stated Shiranui.
