Gardenia Contest

After leaving a city, the gang had come to Gardenia Town. A Pokemon contest was being held there and May wished to enter to earn her fourth ribbon. This time May decided to use Eevee in the contest. Eevee had learned some new moves thanks to Ash's Eevee's; it had learned Dig, Swift, Headbutt, Quick Attack and Bite. 
"Your Eevee looks ready for a Pokemon contest May." Ash said.
"You're right Ash and I have your Eevee's to thank for it." May said. 
"No problem." Ash said. 
"Hey Ash I've been meaning to ask you, what are your two Eevee's going to evolve into?" May asked.
"I'll be evolving them into Glaceon and Leafeon." Ash answered.
He showed May a Glaceon and Leafeon on his Pokedex.
"Wow they look amazing." May said. "I wonder which one I should evolve my Eevee into."
"My advice is to ask Eevee what it wants to evolve into, but wait until it's strong enough to evolve first." Ash advised. 
May clearly understood that Eevee was nowhere near ready to evolve yet.
Just then a woman came up to May. Her name was Yuma and she was a Pokemon breeder and a former winner of the Grand Festival. Yuma had come to see the contest in Gardenia Town to find new coordinators to pass her coordination skills onto.
It was soon time for the Pokemon contest to begin. Yuma sat in the audience next to Ash, Brock, Tomo and Max. Lillian did the usual introductions and then showed off the Gardenia Ribbon. The Gardenia Ribbon was a bow shaped ribbon and it was lavender colored with a white outline. Next the appeal round began. The first coordinator was a girl named Mollie and this was her first contest. Mollie's Pokemon was a Raticate and it used Hyper Fang on a block of wood Mollie tossed to it. It gave off a good demonstration of Raticate's teeth. Next it was May's turn and she used Squirlte. First Squirtle used Rapid Spin, which created a little sandstorm. Then he used Bubble and created a pyramid of bubbles and last of all he used Ice Beam which burst the bubbles and created a big icy pillar. More Pokemon showed off after May until the appeal round was over. The final results were eight trainers were to move onto the battle rounds and May was one of them. Yuma had been watching carefully at the coordinators and their Pokemon.
Mollie, who also passed the appeal round, battled first with an Absol. Her opponent was a boy named Humphrey and he owned a Marshtomp. Absol started off with Razor Wind, but Marshtomp dodged the attack. Absol then went in with a Quick Attack, but Marshtomp made Absol slip with Mud Shot and then Marshtomp struck Absol with Water Gun. Absol fainted after being hit by the attack. 
"You can tell that girl Mollie is just starting out as a coordinator." Ash said. 
"Yeah because she was easily defeated like May was when she first started." Brock said.
May went on to defeat her opponents one by one with Eevee until she finally had to face Humphrey. Eevee started off by using Shadow Ball but Marshtomp used Protect, preventing Shadow Ball from hitting it. Marshtomp fought back with Mud Shot, but Eevee used Dig to dodge it. This was a mistake though; Marshtomp had the ability to feel and sense where Eevee was in the ground thanks to it's fin. As soon as Eevee came out of the hole, Marshtomp tackled it.
"Oh man and Eevee just learned Dig to." Max said.
"Yeah but it's second new move Swift will work." Ash pointed out.
May told Eevee to use Swift and Marshtomp was hit by the stars. Marshtomp fought back with Water Gun and Eevee dodged it. Then Marshtomp used Mud Shot multiple times on the ground and the ground became muddy. This was difficult for Eevee because the mud was too slippery and thick so using attacks like Tackle and Quick Attack were useless. Eevee used Swift and Marshtomp used Water Gun to counter it. Eevee used Shadow Ball next and it struck Marshtomp. The battle was getting intense between May and Humphrey. Marshtomp then used Mud Shot, but Eevee was able to dodge it. Even with the muddy ground, Eevee could still dodge attacks. Eevee used Shadow Ball again and Marshtomp countered with Water Gun.
Suddenly time was up and May had more points than Humphrey. And so May was the winner of the Gardenia contest and she obtained the ribbon. So May now had four ribbons and only needed one more to enter the Kanto Grand Festival. After the contest was over Yuma decided to train Mollie to be a better Pokemon coordinator. So everything worked out in the end.
