Pokémon Court-Chapter 67: Stunned audience and Electric Whirlpool

Making a simple entrance, Beautifly made no flashy moves. While it could have also used the “Attract” Move, Abby had already showcased that before, so Terrance didn’t plan to use it.

The simple entrance, coupled with Terrance’s silence, fueled the audience’s anticipation.

What kind of performance would it be, exactly?

At the judges’ table, their eyes lit up. Though not explicitly mentioned, the judges compare the growth of Pokemon to the average standards of similar Pokemon. Pokemon which has been raised outstandingly naturally exude a unique charm.

Beautifly was precisely such a Pokemon.

Onstage, under the gaze of countless eyes, Terrance took a deep breath, intending to have Beautifly execute “that combo.”

“Beautifly, use Gust—”

Upon receiving the command, the gracefully hovering Beautifly emitted a soft hum in midair. With a graceful motion of its beautiful wings, Beautifly danced slowly, its wings showcasing a colorful and mesmerizing rhythm as they unfurled. Though the breeze was gentle, the audience could discern the gradually forming currents in the air.

“Such incredible control. I feel like the wind is taking shape on the stage. What could it be?!!” Marian exclaimed.

Shape, or rather, a subtle structure, was clearer to Marian, who was closer than the audience.

“Well, then I’ll let you see it clearly,” Terrance said with a faint smile.

“Beautifly, lie down and use String Shot.”

Upon hearing the command, Beautifly, with its wings fluttering, tilted its body to the side. It appeared as if its entire body lay flat in the air. Its wings continued to stretch, but simultaneously, Beautifly’s long, needle-like mouth curled up into a round shape, releasing strands of white silk. Like a fountain, these strands scattered into the air.

As its colorful wings danced, the pure white silk shot into the air. Beautifly swayed its round head and the silk continued to increase…

“Oh—” Marian gasped in surprise. “The silk seems to be moving with the airflow!!”

Initially, the upward-spraying silk resembled silver chains hanging in the sky, akin to a fountain or a beautiful blooming flower. However, after following Marian’s directions, the audience astonishingly realized that the spat out silk didn’t fall; instead, it fluttered continuously with the invisible currents, and eventually, guided by a certain rhythm, it began to form a spiral.

“This is… Whirlpool!!”

After the quantity of silk strands reached a certain threshold, the general shape was finally discernible to people. Above Beautifly, a massive white vortex churned incessantly. Air currents revolved swiftly around the axis of the vortex, drawn by the significantly reduced pressure at its center. From all sides beneath Beautifly’s body, airflow was sucked into the bottom of the vortex, just above the stage’s surface.

“Wow… amazing,” Marian exclaimed.

The audience seats, judges’ table, the lobby—everyone focusing on this performance was captivated by the colossal white Whirlpool. At this moment, all eyes were on Beautifly who was beneath the Whirlpool!

“Is it not over yet?” someone wondered. freew(e)bnove(l)

Beautifly continued to spit out silk, which was connected to its long mouth, causing the enormous white Whirlpool to look as if it was connected to Beautifly. Lying flat in the air, Beautifly, relying solely on its tiny body, raised the Whirlpool that kept accelerating and radiating a milky-white halo. The scene was incredibly stunning.

Zzzz! Zzzz!

Just as everyone admired Beautifly’s control over String Shot and Gust, electric currents merged into the silk, causing the white color on top to gradually change, shining with a golden light. As the zaps accelerated sharply, in that moment, everyone watching the performance seemed to hear the chirps of thousands of bird Pokémon.

“Electroweb—”

As the golden currents spread gradually from the bottom, the entire audience was collectively taken aback.

“It’s… changing color!!” Marian exclaimed in astonishment.

The conservative estimate of the silk forming the Whirlpool was several kilometers long. This silk, created by Beautifly expending significant stamina and energy, covered nearly half the stage. The constant frequency of its rotation even slightly unnerved the judges.

“Could it be the Electroweb move?” Sitting among the judges’ panel, Nurse Joy’s eyes were slightly curious.

Not just her, the already impressive performance escalated the atmosphere in the venue with the influx of golden electric currents!

Zzzz—

Zzzz—

After 5 seconds.

The enormous white Whirlpool seemed to ignite, electric currents suffusing the air. With crackling sounds, the entire Whirlpool transformed into a sea of golden electricity!

On the continually spinning Whirlpool, golden currents flowed, emitting a dazzling, scorching light. It was as if the whirlpool was inlaid with a layer of gold, resembling the sparkling ripples on a golden ocean, a sight of incomparable beauty.

“So beautiful!” A child in the audience involuntarily exclaimed.

In the lobby, Abby gazed at the radiant Beautifly on the stage, speechless for a moment. Everything was perfect—whether it was the combo of moves or their execution or how the Beautifly was raised, it exuded the essence of a Top Coordinator.

“Amazing.” James’ mouth slightly opened wide. Sensing the change in the atmosphere. He understood that Terrance had done something extraordinary.

“This is… Electric Whirlpool!” Marian shouted with excitement. “As everyone knows, Whirlpool is a Water-type move!!”

“But Contestant Terrance, using the combo of three moves, Gust, String Shot, and Electroweb, has shown us a unique Whirlpool!! It’s absolutely beautiful!”

“It’s hard to believe that Contestant Terrance is participating in a Pokémon Contest for the first time!!!”

On the live screen, the camera focused on the “Electric Whirlpool.” In the video, whether it was a vortex or a whirlpool, Beautifly held up the “Whirlpool” like a thundercloud. At this moment, its charm was showcased to the fullest, projecting a unique demeanor.

The entire audience was stunned!

“Then!!”

“How are the judges going to evaluate this performance?”

“Incredible combo. I never thought that air currents could control the trajectory of String Shot, and especially the charm when the electric currents ignited the entire Whirlpool. The strong contrast between white and gold was truly stunning.” Raoul Contesta exclaimed.

“Remarkable! Remarkable! Remarkable!” Mr. Sukizo smiled.

“Presenting such a beautiful spectacle by seamlessly combining different moves. Whether it’s the charm of Beautifly itself or the impact brought by the ‘Electric Whirlpool,’ even sitting here, I can imagine the sweat and effort put in by the Coordinator and the Pokémon behind it. This is a remarkably exceptional performance which is rarely seen in a Pokémon Contest,” Nurse Joy smiled as she gave her evaluation.

“Well—it seems that Contestant Terrance has received unanimous recognition from everyone~”

Perfect score!

Excellent evaluation!

As Terrance walked down, he was engulfed in a thunderous applause and the cheers of the audience. The performance was a resounding success!

In the corridor, Abby eagerly pulled Terrance, staring at him in disbelief. “Hey, you—”

“You’re actually this amazing?!”
