The judges said that this was an extremely hard one to judge this time. In third place with a total of 255 is Nick from Lillycove City in Hoenn who captured a Beedrill. He will receive a Sitrus Berry. The judge then announced that this was unprecedented. They actually had a tie for first place. These trainers both got a score of 300 points. The crowd began to murmur at the rarity of a tie in the contest. The judge continued that both trainers are from here in Johto, and both placed highly in the Indigo League last year. "Catching a Scyther and a Nincada respectively, the winners of the contest are...........From Ecruteak City Shiranui Tsukiko, and from Blackthorn City, Liam Coleman!" The judges said that each trainer would receive a random evolutionary stone. A digital roulette wheel appeared on the screen. It was divided into ten sections, each one had a picture of one of the evolutionary stones. Liam pressed the button and the wheel landed on Water Stone. Liam was handed a Water Stone.
