Chapter Text
"So far, we've seen passionate appeals from everyone onstage," the announcer described. "Apparently, the best has been saved for last! Closing out the Master Rank is the Miracle Idol, Lisia Darya!"
The moment the platform rose up, the crowd went wild upon seeing the dynamic duo of Lisia and Ali. Ali now wore a teal ribbon around his neck bearing a diamond-shaped charm.
"Dazzling! Dizzying!" Lisia greeted, performing a twirl with her trademark enthusiasm. "Doldrums defying! It's me, Lisia!"
She winked to the crowd once she finished. Even the boys in the audience were amazed, one of them even exclaiming that he loved her from his seat.
"Let's go, Ali!" Lisia exclaimed. "Use Mist!"
Ali let out an elegant cry before making a spin, summoning a white fog over the stage.
"Follow it up with Twister!" she commanded.
Transitioning from elegant movements to swift wing beats, a tornado was formed around him the moment Ali spun in place. This also collected the Mist left behind, turning the tornado white. Backstage, Chloe wondered what Lisia was planning to do. Being able to see the Pokémon was vital to these events, or so she heard from other Coordinators.
"Spotlight, please!" the idol requested.
Chloe realized that there was a Key Stone in the center of Lisia's tiara, which she activated by tapping it with her two fingers.
"Ali! Mega Evolve!" Lisia cheered.
Within the eye of the storm, the Altarianite appeared before him before shining pink. The colors of the Mega Stone cloaked him one by one. When the sphere broke apart, the tornado was also affected, dispelling into thin air.
Ali's Mega form sent the crowd into excitement once again. Chloe realized that this was part of her plan to wow the audience.
"Use Hyper Voice!" she added.
The Humming Pokémon let out a shrill cry from his beak. Those clear sound waves transitioned to pink due to Pixilate activating at that time. They echoed across the hall, nearly blowing everyone away.
"Time for the grand finale!" she signaled. "Draco Meteor!"
One final barrage of purple meteors capped the performance. Even Serena praised her fellow idol for a job well done backstage.
