PS350
VS. Buneary (Japanese: VSミミロル VS. Mimirol) is the 350th round of the Diamond & Pearl arc in the Pokémon Adventures manga.
Synopsis
The round begins with Chimhiko, Prinplup and Wig bursting out of Mt. Coronet. Missy and her companions come out next, with Pearl announcing that they're at Eastern Sinnoh, and that right at the end of the Route they were in was Hearthome City. Pearl says that if they wanted to reach the peak of Mt. Coronet, they'd to go in by the eastern entrance, before wondering about the two Pokemon they had saw earlier in the cave.
Diamond and Pearl then perform a double act, with Missy butting right in saying that she wanted to buy a new brooch and necklace. They walk up ahead where the city entrance was, when they see a shadow that turns out to be a Buneary. It starts to dance, with Missy commenting that it was adorable and mesmerising Prinplup. Pearl comments that the Buneary was interesting and offers it a berry, but the Buneary releases it's rolled-up ear, hitting Pearl and creating a bruise. Angrily, Pearl orders Chimhiko to attack, but the Buneary runs away, with Pearl and the whole gang chasing it.
Buneary runs into a building, and the others chase it inside too. The building is revealed to be a Contest Hall. Missy then gets separated from her friends, and then questions Prinplup if she had chased after Buneary for a different reason: for the Buneary's dancing had mesmerized Prinplup. Prinplup then feels shy, which Platinum tells her not to be. Suddenly, a huge crowd appears and push Missy and Prinplup into the Contest Hall.
Diamond and Pearl are still chasing the Buneary, when a woman picks it up and calls her Bunnie affectionately. The woman then questions Diamond and Pearl on who they are. She then introduces herself as Keira and that the Buneary was hers. Diamond and Pearl introduce themselves, with Pearl angrily mentioning that Bunnie had hit him. Bunnie then repeats what it had done to Pearl earlier. Keira says that it was part of Bunnie's choreographed dance moves, and that Pearl must have gone near Bunnie when it was practicing. As a token of her apology, Keira hands Pearl some Glitter Powder, before telling Diamond and Pearl that she was one of the judges. Diamond then notices that Missy is missing and the duo start to search for her.
Diamond and Pearl finds Missy on the stage. It was currently a Dance Competition, and Missy starts to do a terrible dance with Prinplup staring wide-eyed at the audience. The MC then apologises to the audience and the participants as an unregistered coordinator had slipped into the contest by mistake, before attempting to escort Missy off the stage. One of two women within the audience then laughs at how anybody could take part with a terrible dance routine like Missy's, while the other woman takes note of the jewels on Missy's fingers. The audience then crticise Missy of not caring how awful her dance was as she could bribe her way to victory. Missy retorts by saying that she coming here was a matter of coincidence and that if she would take part in any contest, it would be based on her abilities and not her fortune, staking her family name on this. Judge Dexter says that there's an open spot for tomorrow's contest and offers Missy the spot. Missy accepts, with Pearl knowing that she would say that.
The next morning, Pearl yawns as he comes out of the lift, and is surprised to see all of his, Diamond and Missy's Pokémon dressed up. Missy then reveals that she had bought the Pokemons' accessories from the best boutique in town. Pearl then worries about the price of the accessories, but Missy tells him not to worry as the boutique belongs to her. Diamond then wakes up and comes out of the lift, and the gang changes into their outfits. Missy then announces the start of the 'Super Contest Crash Course', ending the round.
