"Then I'll take you up on your offer, and use the money to catch that Pokemon." Zoro says nodding his head confidently. "How many Beli are we being paid for this?"

"Well I have no idea what the exchange rate between our worlds would be... But you'll each get paid $5000 for 10-12 hours of security detail, and it costs $1250 per Pokemon to go in and catch them. So you'll have enough money.
"EEEEEEEE!!! Oh I want this one!" Perona points to a little blue Penguin.
"Ahhh... A Piplup, yeah they have a few of those at the preserve." Stark says.
"EEEEEEEEE!!!!"

Zoro just shook his head at Perona's excitement. "Alright, when do we start?" He asks.

Nodding, Zoro went to wait by the front door, haveing already put on his essentials before he was called into the meeting.

A man in a limo soon arrives to take you... A short drive later you arrive at a relatively large stadium. As you get out you see a woman in a police uniform walk up to you. "Hello. You must be the ones Mr. Stark sent. I'm Officer Jenny, and I'm the assistant chief of security for this event."

"Zoro... Alright... Let's do this. Where do we go." Zoro says looking around already.

You see several people mostly in their teens hanging out with several Pokemon.
"Right now... You will be running survielence of the stadium, making sure no one tries to disrupt the event. The girl here will patrol the back halls, watching out for potential threats... Like theives or terrorists." Jenny says. She leads you up to a small balcony where you can get a good enough view of the packed stadium, but still be able to easily get out if anything went wrong.
She glances at your swords. "Oh and one more thing... NO killing or maiming anyone. Human or Pokemon."

"Don't worry... I'll reverse my blades." Zoro says "From what I hear, you guys and your Pokemon are Nakama... I won't betray that trust." He says nodding.

"alright." Jenny says walking off. After awhile the contest begins. Starting something called an "Appeal round" "And now our first coordinator on stage... JESSILINA!!!" "Go! Yanmega!" She calls out. Throwing her Pokeball an insect-like creature pops out. What follows is a somewhat interesting if drawn out spectable involving the use of sonic blasts, and wind generation to create some flashly effects... You can also tell that this woman is clearly egomaniacal, and starved for attention.

Boring... When do the battles start... Zoro thinks to himself keeping an eye out for trouble.
Action: Just keeping an eye out...

A hunred or so more of these trainers goes by. "And from the Hoen Region... MAY!!!" A girl in a red dress comes out. "GOOOOOOOOO MUNCHLAX!!!" What follows is 45 seconds of this Pokemon using various random effects from this move apparently called "Metronome."

Shaking his head, he watched as the strange creature pranced around maniacally... Still bored... I want to see what these things can do... if it's worth teaching one of these things how to fight properly.

50 more coordinators later... Including a green haired boy with a rose-handed pokemon. And an obviously gay man with a Cactus Pokemon... The appeal round is thankfully over.
"Thank you all for participating in the appeal round! We will now take a break to decide which 32 coordinators will advance to the battle round!"
(30 minutes later)
"The following coordinators will advance to the battle round!" She says pointing to the screen which showed pictures of the various trainers advancing... Glancing up, you saw 3 of the trainers you took note of are advancing. The one that didn't well....
"AAAAAAAHHHHH!!! HOW COULD THIS BEEEE!!!" Needless to say the tantrum Jessilina is throwing speaks volumes for her character.

Sighing Zoro comments to himself "Maybe it's because she took a dragonfly to a beauty contest?" He had no idea how they worked things like this, and he didn't care really... All he wanted was to get his hands on that sword handed Bug thing...
Action: Just retaining the looking around stones.
