Wisteria Contest

The next day...
The gang made it to Wisteria Town, where May could enter the next Pokemon contest. This time May was going to enter with her Squirtle and Munchlax and right now they were doing some practicing before the contest started. Since Ash already earned five ribbons, he could just watch May from the audience with the others. But the gang wasn't alone, Harley was there too. Harley asked Ash and May how many ribbons they had and they showed off their ribbons. When he saw May's ribbons he simply said as a insult that she had some catching up to do. But when he saw that Ash had five ribbons he couldn't believe his eyes and thought it was unfair. Harley had three ribbons. Like usual, Harley boasted that he was going to win which of course made May mad but she declared that she will show him.
It was soon time for the Wisteria Contest. May's Eevee was sitting in the audience with the others. The truth is Eevee wanted to be in the contest, but May had told him that he wasn't ready yet. So Eevee was watching to see what contests were like, so he would be ready when May does choose him. Lillian gave the usual introductions and showed off the Wisteria Ribbon; it was orange with a lighter outline and it was the same shape as the ribbons from Hoenn. 
Then it was time for the appeal rounds and May was up first with Squirtle. Squirtle started off by spinning horizontally with Rapid Spin and blew some bubbles. The bubbles spun around the same way Squirtle was. Then he fired Ice Beam which burst all the bubbles and created an icy fountain. After May was a trainer with a Rhydon, then a trainer with Camerupt and a trainer with Machamp and a trainer with Magneton. Next up was Harley using his Ariados. Ariados used Spider Web, creating webs all over and Ariados swung from web to web using Scary Face.
"Must Harley's performances always be scary or creepy?" Ash asked.
"I think scary or creepy performances are the only performances that he likes doing." Brock replied.
After the preliminary round was over, eight trainers made it to the battle round and May and Harley were two of them. Munchlax defeated it's opponent, a Politoed using Solar Beam. Munchlax may not have looked like much but he seemed to be quite a good battler. To be honest he did learn a few things thanks to Ash's Snorlax; when May and May visited Prof. Oak's lab, Ash's Snorlax taught Munchlax some moves like Fire, Ice and Thunder Punch. So thanks to Snorlax, Munchlax had grown a bit. Harley was using Octillery in the battle rounds and it showed no mercy to it's opponents.
It wasn't long until Harley and May had to face each other in the finals. May started off by telling her Munchlax to use Thunder Punch, but Octillery dodged it and jumped onto Munchlax's face using Constrict. Munchlax tried to get Octillery off but it was to no avail. Octillery then used Octazooka on Munchlax and May lost a lot of points. May told Munchlax to use Solar Beam, but before Munchlax could release the beam Octillery used Sludge Bomb and stopped the attack. May was in trouble and she told Munchlax to use Metronome. Of course May had no idea what Metronome would turn into; but since she was in a pinch she had no choice. Luckily for her and Munchlax though, Metronome turned into Thunder and Octillery was shocked. Harley was not happy with what happened and told Octillery to heal up with Rest. May knew what Rest was because she had seen it before. She ordered her Munchlax to use Tackle then Focus Punch and Thunder Punch. But those three attacks weren't enough to defeat Octillery. Octillery woke up and then fired Octazooka at Munchlax, knocking it out.
So Harley was the winner and he received the Wisteria ribbon, making it his fourth ribbon. May was a bit disappointed not being able to win her third ribbon, but she was determined to do better in the next contest. When the contest concluded, Lilian came up to the gang and gave May a flier. The flier revealed there was a Pokemon contest on Chrysanthemum Island. So that was where the gang decided to go for the next Pokemon contest.
