"Thanks Nakura," Dith grinned, setting off beside the small man for the auditorium, "I'll get you something to eat afterwards to pay you back... Oh? Okay than," he nodded, "I'll see you in a short while then, I hope you find it!"
People were really piling in now, so much so that somebody actually brushed against him rather than moving around. Once inside the auditorium he began to look around for his seat... Hu. Okay. No problem. Dith slowed as his eyes alighted on a man in a blue uniform. He didn't know what was going on with the girl the man was talking to, and it was none of his business but the shiny-headed man's mere presence made him uncomfortable and vaguely angry...
A girl next to them was unconscious on the floor. Apparently nobody else thought this was a problem. Scowling darkly Dith shoved his way past members of the audience towards the poor woman, but before he reached her more people in blue turned up and started dealing with the situation. Normally he would have pressed on towards her anyway but he really didn't want anything to do with the security staff and so he ended up pausing in the middle of an aisle, ticket in hand, causing a noticeable block in the flow of people to their seats. While he was no doubt being inconvenient, he was hardly the only person who'd stopped to stare at the scene playing out between the girl with the braid and the officer.

Still feeling a tad self-conscious about his attire, Guy glanced about the contestant waiting room. Most of the other competitors were wearing strange, extravagant outfits and has little accessories for their Pokemon to match. Kodo is so strange, he silently thought to himself. "Well... If you're sure, then I'm sure it'll be all right. It's not like I have anything else to change into, anyway..."
Guy returned Rosie's smile in kind as she departed to change into her own contest clothes. "Okay, I'll be waiting here!" Remembering the words of the frightening attendant, Guy held onto his tag tightly, making sure that there was no possible way he could lose it. Perhaps he should get some accessories for Anonymes, as well...
He glanced towards the small Ghost at his shoulder. "Well, do you want anything to wear, Anon? It's your choice, really." The Litwick's eyes darted nervously around the room. What with all of the strange people and Pokemon? Why were they all dressed so abnormally? What was going on?! Guy sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. He would have to improvise...
Glancing about the waiting room for anything - anything - the might spruce up Anonymes' image, Guy caught sight of a small, discarded green ribbon on the floor. He retrieved this, as well as a toothpick from the small table of refreshments for the competitors, and returned to his Pokemon. After a moment of pondering, he carefully tied the ribbon around the Litwick's small body and stuck the toothpick in the ribbon, making it almost look like a miniature sword. "There," said Guy, not without a small feeling of triumph. "You're like a little swordsman!"
Guy quickly found Rosie again and was surprised to find her not wearing pink, as well as talking with... someone. ...Someone that looked very familiar. He cautiously walked over to the pair, unsure what was going on. "Um, miss Rosie, who is this?" Anon hovered near his master's shoulder, toothpick in hand.

[Dith]
"HEY! MAMOSWINE! MOVE YOUR a**!" This shouted from one of the people who were now behind Dith as he caused considerable congestion in the middle of the aisle. One of the people who was grumbling behind them, was obviously very rude.
--
[Rosie and Guy]
Asch looked up, for his apparent attempts at being a Kecleon had failed, unsurprisingly. Green eyes blinked once as he saw Rosie in her blue dress which frankly... looked quite lovely on her. Making her look not too unlike a certain someone he knew.
The red head just stared silently at her for a moment before turning his gaze away with a frown and a huff. "I remember," he muttered. However, his frown deepened when Guy seemed to take notice and approached as well.
Tyke waved his tail happily and chirped a greeting at Vahy'n

Callista finally managed to catch Eden when the Eevee paused to sniff at someone's ankle. Her trainer scooped up the pink Eevee and shook her head, deciding to go to the concession stand before finding a place to stake out. It couldn't hurt to get something to drink after all of that chasing, right? Even Eden seemed a little worn out from all of her running around - or maybe just disappointed that no-one was paying attention to her. Perhaps she should have entered the contest after all... Eden probably would have liked that.
Oh well, too late for that now, but at least she could get a soda before heading in.

[Len]
It wasn't the first time the crowds had gotten rough over seats at a big event like the Regional Contests, but usually they waited for their favorite coordinators to show up before getting rowdy. The officer started leading Len through the aisles and out of the auditorium, to the back halls of the giant tree stadium. The crowds were thick out in this area too, and there were a number of people that weren't even there for the show.
A short distance in front of the rocket and police officer a teen with spiky hair and an ekans wrapped around his shoulders helped himself to some poor old woman's purse and took off right in the cop's direction. "HEY!" The officer grabbed the kid as he started to run past. "I saw that. Come with me." Apparently the kid hadn't seen him.
The officer was being distracted with the struggling teen.

She still wore a soft smile, though turned her head and stepped to the side when Guy joined.
"Guy, This is the boy that I told you about. The one I mistook for Luke." She explained, gesturing lightly to him before she returned her attention to the Luke look alike.
"I wanted to apologize for that, actually," She told him, with an embarrassed laugh. "You just look... so much like a friend of ours."
Her eyes glanced over him for a moment, what caught her attention what the outfit he was wearing, clearly he was entering the contest, but thats now that interested her... his outfit did look very Grand Ile, a style she was used to seeing by now from Luke and Guy.
Vany'n lowered her head when greeting Tyke, smiling

[Rude guy]
Dith, no longer in the best of moods, turned around and loomed at the grumbling crowd. The muscles in his arms and shoulders tensed, and he gave the loudmouth a very hard look indeed. "In my country," he growled in his thickest Russian accent, "we say please excuse me. I appreciate good manners." He did step back into a row of seats to let people pass, but he didn't take his fierce gold eyes off the man who had shouted at him. He did not appreciate being insulted by some capitalist little lard pot, and he had every intention of marking that perfectly clear.

[Officer]
Their chance?
"Heph, food." Len muttered in a distorted silence and the Tepig took the title to run. Concession stands here he comes!
"Oh, no-" Len muttered as the Tepig ran off, putting up a terrible frantic front as she slowly chased after him. "Heph, come back, yes?"
Sweat still clamored upon her brow, but so did a light feel of relief. Okay, so, no close calls again. It's either back seats or bust. So much for seeing worthwhile Pokemon . . . Maybe she could hide in line? An idea . . . at least.

[Dith]
Several people behind Dith blinked in surprise at the growly Russian man, while the rude guy quickly shrunk away. Eep! He didn't say any more, and merely slinked past, hoping not to get a beat down.
---
There were many concession stands to choose from, although candy girl didn't actually sell sodas. But a guy next to her did! Some dude in shades was leaning against his counter while whistling some tune to himself boredly.

[Guy, Asch, and Rosie]
"U-um... e-excuse me please..." A quiet voice squeaked out. It seemed that the group was gathered in front of some malfunctioning speaker system. Izumi rubbed her arm with a metal colored hand while her pokemon stared at the small gathering of humans.
"...Dum..." The two droned quietly.
------------------------
[Len]
The police officer didn't seem to notice Len chasing after her pokemon, at least not until she was lost in the crowd. It didn't seem that he'd be coming after her, at least, since the teen decided, in a mad attempt to try and get out of a petty theft charge, to add assaulting a police officer to his list of offenses.

Guy gave a small, polite smile to this new person, but a flicker of doubt sparked within him. He did look... a lot like Luke. A lot. It was almost uncanny. Who exactly was this guy...? And why did he look so much like Guy's master and friend? Unless, perhaps... No, no, but that was silly! It was ridiculous to even think about!
"Yeah... You do look a lot like him." Guy lowered his eyebrows slightly. Really, who was this mysterious person? He was beginning to freak Guy out.
"Ahh..! Oh-oh, s-sorry, are we in your way?" The sudden appearance of the quiet blue-haired woman startled Guy and he quickly stepped out of the way of the speaker. That was... weird.
Anonymes glanced down to the two strange Pokemon below him. What were they doing here? Were they here for the contest? The larger one looked so pretty... But what was with the smaller one? They were so strange! Curious, Anon hovered down towards the Vaporeon and the Zorua, brandishing his toothpick sword. "Lit-lit!"

Out of harm's way (so she figured), Len attempted to beckon her Tepig back to the towers of her head. However, the porker was dead set on getting something to eat, even as she caught him quickly and held him tight.
"Te, te, te, te, te . . . " he whined, fidgeting and wiggling an excited tail. "Te, te, te, te, te!"
"Alright, fine, fine." she answered, finding a random line and playing the waiting game one more time. She was satiated herself, but her Tepid surely wasn't. Something just to pacify him would help; he'd complain all through the contest if he didn't get squat.

[Guy, Asch, Rosie]
"O-oh um... n-no... I-I just... need to um... fix this..." She squeaked out.
[All Rockets]
"Hey!" A voice came over the tiny mics in each rocket's ear. "What do you all think you're doing? You're not here to relax and watch the contest." The sound of shuffling and crunching came over the mic as the white haired elite most likely filled her mouth with popcorn. "Ge' in dere. Oo're 'eally 'isappointing me right now." A pause and the slurping sound of an almost empty soda being sucked up a straw "Except you Red. You're on the right track. Now come on!"

She to took a distraction from the conversation to step out of the way, but when she looked over to apologize to the timid women, she paused and blinked "Izumi! Hi~"

Calllista couldn't decide what was annoying her more - the girl with the obscenely pink jumpluff trying to sell sweets, or the man at the soda stand who wouldn't stop whistling. A frown creased her face as she attempted to order her soda, but Eden was already wriggling in her arms again, getting excited all over again at seeing a pokemon as pink as she was.
"Eden, Eden calm down," she hissed, not wanting to have to chase the Eevee all over the place again. In her struggle with her overly-happy Eevee, she crashed backwards against the soda stand and fell to the ground. Great. Just great. And now she was getting chewed out over her earpiece - well at least she wasn't alone judging by the commands.
Resolving to treat herself to an extra-large soda once she got back to base, she shook her head and got back to her feet. She needed to follow orders and get inside - ten minutes ago. "Behave, Eden, or you won't get to come with me next time," she grumbled, and the pink ball of fluff finally settled down, only wagging her tail in greeting when she saw someone interesting.
