27th Spell [Video]
Good morning, everyone. I'd like to talk to you all about competition.
I don't have to tell you about the usual way people compete in this world, I mean we're saturated in it every day we're here. But what if, say, you have a Pokemon who doesn't really like to fight? Or you don't enjoy battling them? Or for that matter what if you just want another option aside from Pokemon battling? Most Pokemon, and for that matter a lot of us as well, still enjoy a good competitive atmosphere, so what's the solution?
Well, me and my friend Korra hit on an idea last month. Some of you might have seen the post she made about that snow creation she and her Pokemon made using nothing but various moves from their arsenals and the surrounding materials. So we got to thinking, what's stopping us from making that into some sort of event? Creative team-building exercises for our Pokemon and ourselves that we can show off the results of, maybe even submit them for judging if some of us want to be on a panel. And that's just the beginning! We could make an entire set of sports around this if we put our minds to it, I'm quite sure.
This is really just the seed of an idea, and I'll be honest, it'll take a lot of effort and interest to get anything out of it, but it was just something I really thought should be brought up to the regions as a whole. At this point we are still very much in the brainstorming part of things, so if anything I've said has sparked an idea with you, let's hear it! And I encourage discussion in the middle of this post.
That's all from me, so anyone whose attention I've got, go ahead and let's hear what you have to say. I'm really looking forward to thoughts on this!

It looks like she's told you everything I already suggested, but...hm, do you think there'd be events where the humans have to work together with their teams somehow, in addition to ones where it was the Pokemon working on their own?

A few years back, there was this game everyone played in Goldenrod...paintball, I think. You could set up something like that, for anything that could work a paint launcher.

Paintball... sounds like the sort of thing a Smeargle would be perfect for.
