Log:
It’s a slightly rainy day in Johto, but that’s not going to stop the excitement that seem to have taken over the park. In the center of the park, there are five floating octagon-shaped platforms that being held up by Alakazams. Around the edges of the park there are tarp shielding the bustling crowds from the drizzle. Several big screen TVs can be seen all over the place.

The main park doors up and a redheaded woman step out. The crowds goes silent as she approaches the middle platform hovering above the water fountain. Once she gets close enough, one of the Alakazams picks her up using psychic. As she lands, she pulls out a microphone out of her pocket and addresses to the crowd.

“Hey folks, this is your lovely DJ Mary of the Radio Tower. Welcome to the first ever Johto Fighting Tournament!” she shouts into the mike, making the crowd goes wild. “Competitors from all over the region have come to prove their might but only one will be the Champion. This event will not only be witnessed here in great city of Goldernrod but is also being broadcast to all of Johto, so you can’t say you missed any of the action! The rules of the tournament are simple, folks. There are two ways to win.”

Mary raises her free hand up, showing two fingers.

“One is by knocking out your opponent, and the other is by knocking them OFF the platform. Don’t worry, guys, these awesome Alakazams will be here to float you down if you fall off. Now, enough talk. Let’s get this tournament started. Bring out the contestants!”

Mary is floated off the stage just as the doors open again and the competitors come out.

[He just shoots her a look.]

You really think I am here to harm children? I already said: this is fun. Not war.

[Heather, he's frankly offended by that assumption.]

[foolishwren]

_{[... eep.]}

I-- that's not what I meant! I just meant-- ... y'know, don't be too hard on 'em. That's all! I know you're not gonna, like... hurt him or anything.

_{[She's just a protective big sis.]}

[show_my_cannons]

I will not harm him. Probably just... toss him out of the ring. He will be fine.

[foolishwren]

Okay, I believe you.

_{[She grins, just a little sheepishly.]}

He's a good kid. We haven't been in the same place at the same time in ages, but back when we were both in Goldenrod, we used to spar a lot.

_{[... 'Sparring' made it sound a lot more serious than what it actually WAS, which was pretty much just a lot of yelling and trying to hit each other with wooden swords. KIDS, AMIRITE?]}

[show_my_cannons]

Good. You should.

[He grunts, folding his arms and scanning the crowd. Like he expects someone to leap out at them.]

He any good at it?

[foolishwren]

He's not bad, for a little guy.

_{[She actually respects Sora, which is saying a lot. But for all his goofiness, the kid has a good head on his shoulders.]}

I've never seen him fight in earnest, though.

[show_my_cannons]

Well then. We will both see, hmm?

[foolishwren]

Hope you don't mind if I cheer him on. I usually try to root for the underdog.

[show_my_cannons]

Cheer all you want. Doubt it will change anything.

[foolishwren]

Probably not, but I gotta support my little bro, y'know?

[show_my_cannons]

Yeah, yeah, I know.
