OoC:Okay, to celebrate an absolutely fantastic olympics, let's start the first ever olympic contest fair. Rather than have an olympics of our own, for which we'd need more active members than we currently do, we'll have a celebratory fair. There are three individual olympic related contests, as well as food stalls for all occasions. Everyone gets a free go at each contest, but for the extra goes, you must pay a fee of §500. Good Luck, and here we go. ALL results are randomly generated.
BiC:
Olympic Hoop Darts.
Throw Three darts, and see how many points you can get. The scoring is decided on how small the spaces are, and how near the center they are. Of the four small overlaps, the inner two are 100 points, the outer two 50 points, the outer four rings are 25 points and the central ring is 30 points.
Prizes are as follows: (Pokemon levels are equal to one tenth of your total score. Stats are calculated accordingly.
0 - 25 - Consolation Prize - 25 - 50 - Tin Prize - 50 - 100 - Bronze Prize - 100 - 200 - Silver Prize - 200 - 300 - Gold Prize -
((In case you're wondering why I chose the pokemon I did, their names spell CHINA if you line them up. In case you don't get the significance, the Olympics are being held in Beijing.))
One World, One Dream Lucky Dip.
"Aah! Welcome to the One World, One Dream Lucky Dip. I've opened a portal to the world of dreams. Reach in, see what you pull out. I've scattered a number of items. Will you win any of these?"
The Five Eights Roulette
The Olympics began on 8:08pm on 8/8/08.
On this roulette, eight eights are inscribed. Five of these eights are in gold. The other three in lead. Of these five eights, four of them are inscribed with roman numerals. X,X,I,X, the number 29, the Olympiad of which is currently proceeding. The Fifth Eight is inscribed with the "Dancing Beijing Symbol"
Here are the rules. Spin the roulette, and hope Lady Luck is about. If you get a gold eight, you win a shiny baby pokemon. If you get a gold eight with a dancing beijing, you win a shiny Lapras! Try your luck and hope for the best!

Nero walked into the bustling fair, Bacchus along side him. He was here for some fun. He stepped u to the first contest, Olympic Hoops Darts. He took his three darts and three them, tic, tic, tic.
--
One of them hit a smaller overlap, two didn't. The one that did hit one of the "hundred" spots. The other two both hit the central ring, giving 30 points each. Overall, Nero's score came to 160, and the man behind the counter handed him a Nidorina.
Nickname: (you choose) Species: Nidorina Gender: Female Level: 16 Attacks: Poison Sting, Double Kick, Tail Whip, Scratch Ability: Poison Point Persona: Adventurous
--
"Wow!" said Nero, looking at his new Nidorina. She was adventurous, and was boldly, running around Nero, playfully playing with Bacchus. "I think I'll name her Hera, after the queen of deities, for she is truly magnificent."
He looked around at some of the other attractions, hoping to find some familiar faces.
He slowly looked at some of the other games. He tried his hand at the Lucky Dip, pulling out... --
A Nugget! The Hypno handed it over to Nero, who laughed at his luck. Becoming slightly full of himself, he moved over to the last game, the roulette. He threw a discus shaped coin, and it landed... -- On a Blank Space! Sorry! -- Nero just shrugged his shoulders and moved on. You can't win them all...
((I used random.org for generating random numbers. So, I've not been overly kind, just lucky. Come on, try it, see how lucky YOU are!))

Tom moved over to the fair, Geo, Sentry, and Spears in-tow (with Shadow on his back. She still hadn't gotten over her adoption). The Super Poke Mega ForceTM decided to try their hand at darts. Walking up to the stall, Tom asked "Hey, who wants to throw?" Geo and Sentry raised their hands. "Hey hey, only one of us can go, so how about we decide this with Rock Paper Scissors?" Sentry disagreed. "I should go. It's not like Geo's even smart enough to know what to do with the dart!" "Hey, That's not fair!" Geo retorted. "I've been on the team since the beginning!"
Neither one had noticed that Tom had already thrown the darts behind them. His score was...

One 50 and Two 25s. 100 points bags him a Shiny Illumise! "If you get the maximum score for one pokemon, but not enough for the next, you bag a shiny!" said the man, releasing a pokemon from a pokeball. Nickname: (you choose) Species: Illumise Gender: Female Level: 10 Attacks: Tackle, Charm, Sweet Scent Ability: Tinted Lens Persona: Shy The Illumise fluttered around Tom, giggling, and then hiding for cover behind him, upon seeing Geo and Sentry.

Tyson walked into the carnival. He was depressed. Losing his last gym battle had been depresing enough, but now Plum was sick. What else could happen? He hadn't been to a festival since New Years, so he decided it may brighten his mood. So far, no luck.
He walked over to the roulette wheel. After reading the rules, he spun the wheel.

Unfortunately, it failed ((You got 2 - You need 4 or more to win)). "Another go sir? Only §500!"

"No thanks. I'm short on cash. only 300$ left."
He walked over to the dart board. He once again read the instructions, and threw his darts.

"Thanks!" Tyson walked away with his new pokeball on his belt. Thinking about a nickname, he came up with Artimis. Goddess of the Hunt and the Moon. Now at the dream booth, he reached his hand into the warp hole.

A Sapphire! ((Lucky))
You can either keep it as a gemstone, or sell it for an insane amount of cash!

Yay! A fair! And an olympics one to boot. Milo had always enjoyed watching all the athletes go for the gold in all the different sports. Especially basketball and table tennis. Unfortunately, his region didn't exactly have a team in the olympics, so he couldn't exactly cheer for anyone in particular. Oh well.
Walking over to the dart game, he took three darts from the person running the stand and threw them. Maybe he would find some old friends to hang out with here.

Nickname: (you choose) Species: Nidorina Gender: Female Level: 20 Attacks: Fury Swipes, Double Kick, Poison Sting, Tail Whip Ability: Poison Point Persona: Vain -- Nero couldn't believe his eyes.

Tom looked down at the Ilumise, cowering from Sentry and Geo. "Aw, don't mind them" he said "Geo's a nice fella, and Sentry... well we don't take anything Sentry says very seriously."
"Hey! Shut the heck up!" The Sentrat shouted, angrily. Tom ignored her.
"This is Spears." Tom continued.
"Hmph. Such a pitiful Pokemon is beneath me." It answered.
"You realise you're the weakest guy in the group right now don't ya?"
To this, Spears simply sighed, and nodded his head sadly. "And this happy girl is Shadow Blossom."
"H... hi." The Illumise said.
"Oh what a horrible world we live in. First you're abandoned, then you're taken away again. Like an unimportant possession no-one cares about, like a-" Tom cut her off.
"She's a little sad right now, but she'll get better. First thing we need to do is give you a name. Let's see... Illimise, illuminate... Mina! How about Mina?"
"I'm fine with that, I guess." Mina responded.
"Great! And with that, I welcome you to the Super Poke Mega ForceTM! Let's go find another stall." with that, the five companions traveled forth, and stumbled upon the Five Eights Roulette. Tom asked the man at the stall if he could have a go.

Dan entered the Olympics with a shocked face. " Oh my god! This place is huuuuuuuuuuge"! He ran around, looking at everything with a childs glee. " Oooh, wat's dat'"? He said as he walked over to the Dart Challenge. He grinned as he saw the simplicity in the Games mechanics. " Haha! I've figured it out! Alright, just bring the rest back, and throw"!

[ooc: Omigosh, shiny pokemon! Also, short post is short.]
Milo turned around at the call of his name.
"Nero?!" He said, "It's you! I haven't seen you since the Lapras Shrine and Nintura! Were you able to find him? What have you been up to?"

Dan missed one and got two 25's winning a Shiny Houndour. Level: 10 Name: (()) Gender: (()) Ability: Early Bird Attacks: Smog, Howl, Ember, Leer Persona: Loyal -- Tom missed, and got the lead 8 nearest to the gold eights. "Again, sir? Only §500! Wouldn't it be great to win a shiny togepi, or riolu?"-- Nero turned his head away at the mention of Ninurta. Milo was one of the few people who'd actually met the pokemon. He felt guilty for not doing anything when he should have. He shouldn't have ever met the pokemon. All friends do is bring you miseryHe felt a whole lot worse that he'd managed to catch a glimpse of the Unown, that he'd finally met his closest friend, and that Ninurta didn't remember anything. It had broken him. And he hadn't fixed himself. Maybe it was time to forget... [/center]

Tom scratched his chin. "We can afford one more try, I think." he said, handing over $500.

Tom looked at the Pokeball in his hand. "Huzzah!" He said. "A water type will make a most excellent addition to the Super Poke Mega ForceTM! This is great!" However, to his shock, the Pokeball disappeared in a flash of light!
"Wait, what?" he started counting his Pokemon. "One, two, three, four, five, six... Oh right." He said. "She's in the PC. Still, she needs a name. Lilly? nah a little to predictable..."
"How about Patty?" Geo asked.
"Good idea!" Tom said. "Her name is Patty!"
Then, the group moved over to the Lucky Dip. Tom placed his hand in...

So Ninurta hadn't been found? Milo couldn't imagine losing one of his pokemon, especially not the one he started with. Actually, he could imagine losing Mosh. The magikarp had no personality whatsoever, but still...He would be hurt if he couldn't find him.
After the awkward silence, Milo tried to change the subject, "Oh. What about that Dyl guy? Did he find his sister or anything? Did you win any badges yet? I still haven't gone to the first gym. Is it hard?"

Darkaan wondered by the Olympics contest, observing the oddity of the three stalls beside eachother. Maybe he can go get a hotdog and watch a pokemon battle in this area.
But where there were freebees to be won, he couldn't resist the temptation.
He went up to the first stall and picked up the three darts- looked at the list and didn't really show interest in what was displayed. He decided to play his best. He narrowed his eye and aimed for the 100 shotspots.
He observed the roulette and lucky dip as he kept his eyes away from the dart board, afraid to see if he sucked. He'll just wait for the man to tell him how he went.
Mortochi, who was walking beside him waddled up to the Lucky Dip portal and shot his hand through the portal door next to the hypno. He waved his little around, feeling for something worthwhile. He grabbed at something and pulled it through finding he managed to get a...

He was still waiting for his prize. But Darkaan's ear perked up when he heard a trainer talk behind him. Dyl? Trainer Dyl on Route 7?
Darkaan turned to the trainer who seemed to know this "Dyl" and said rather fast, "Do you know Dyl? Who's sister may be someone called...". He paused. He never made the connection until this trainer mentioned it.
"Jai?" Darkaan finally said. He so badly wanted to know anything about Jai or Dyl that he encountered earlier in his journeys. Was she fully recovered at the hospital? We she in good health? Was Dyl back to normal since he was abducted by the Dark Hand?

Milo nodded, "Yeah. That's the guy. His sister was definitely Jai. Wait, aren't you that one guy who helped her when Dark Hand invaded Kantex?"

Nickname: (you choose) Species: Aerodactyl Gender: (()) Level: 22.5 Attacks: Fire Fang, Ice Fang, Thunder Fang, Agility Ability: Pressure Persona: (())
Mortochi pulled out... .... an Energy Powder! -- "Wait, you know Dyl?" said Nero, who'd just snapped out of his daydream. "What's the Dark Hand?"
