*Slateport City*
Today is the first day of the tournament, and people have arrived from all over the world to bear witness to this major event.
At the port, the ferry that contains all the competitors, has just docked in Slateport City. This ferry is as wide as the Titanic, and is just as long.
When the plank was lowered, one of the first competitors to get off the Ferry was a Brunette wearing a red bandana on her head, covering most of her hair. She wore a red/blue shirt with a white Pokeball symbol on the back, as well as blue skinny jeans. She appeared to be in her early 20's with blue eyes and white gloves.
"I can't believe I am here. This is so amazing!"
The person was squealing in excitement before calming down.
Her name is , daughter of the Petalburg City gym leader Norman, and winner of the Hoenn Grand Festival years before.
As she took a seat on one of the many benches provided, she heard someone walking towards her. When she turned her head, she was overcome with joy.
"So it looks like you showed up after all."
This person had green hair, a green jacket with a purple shirt under it, and was carrying a red rose. He looked to be the same age as May.
"Of course I would, this is a big deal for Co-Ordinators like us." Said May
Drew then handed May the rose, smiling.
"I know. For some reason though, this brings back memories of when we first met. I don't know why."
"Maybe it's because this is the city where we are competing for this huge title, and this is also where we first met." Said May
"Oh yeah, this is where we first met each other." Said Drew chuckling
They both then laughed for a little bit before they stopped.
"Good times." Said May
"Definitely. Let's give it our all okay?" said Drew holding out his hand.
"Absolutely." Said May as she grabbed Drew's hand.
They both blushed in embaressment before they let go.
"This is awkward." Said May
"Agreed… I'm just going to go now." Said Drew
They both then slowly walked away from each other.
Later that day, May walked over to one of the Slateport restaurants, looking like one of the Battle Restaurants she encountered in Sinnoh.
"Hey May!" shouted Dawn
Dawn had her blue hair curled into a ponytail, black gloves on her hands with pink Great Ball symbols on the front, a pink T-Shirt, and blue jeans, she was at least a year younger than May.
"Oh my goodness, hey Dawn." Said May
They both hugged for a few seconds.
"How have you been?" asked Dawn
"I've been doing good, and you?" asked May
"I've been doing okay. I got invited to this tournament because I won the Sinnoh Grand Festival."
"That's awesome to hear! I won the Hoenn Grand Festival."
"That's fantastic!"
May then had a smirk on her face.
"So… Find anyone yet in your life."
Dawn then began to blush crimson red.
"I.I.I."
