The internet was going crazy.

That was probably the biggest understatement as well since everything on the web pertaining towards the world of entertainment was going crazy as videos of Cayde's performance were cirulating rapidly throughout the websites.

The many videos that were uploaded to the web were going viral as Cayde's breathtaking performance was taking the net by storm, everyone who was interested in this kind of stuff, along with others who weren't as much, were all asking for who he was.

The people that were going crazy the most were Pokemon Showcase Performers, due to the fact that they indulged themselves in this kind of stuff and also that they recognised the stage that Cayde performed on was a Pokemon Showcase stage.

There were even some people who were from other regions also having found themselves somehow onto these sites. Which was a rare thing as other regions tend to only pay attention to things happening in their own regions, not others.

It was no doubt that Cayde's perfomance was making a huge impact on both Pokemon Perfomers and Coordinators alike.

At the current time, Cayde was seen in front of a mirror inside one of the preparation rooms as he was just fixing up his hair along with just overall taking a bit of a rest. The whole situation with him having to take a step up to the stage was a bit sudden, so he didn't exactly get to prepare for it beforehand.

The showcase had ended not too long ago and Cayde was just cleaning himself up because Palermo had stated that she wanted him to come along with her to the production studio in which she owns, it had turned out that she was actually a very famous producer here in Kalos.

The production in which she owns focuses mainly only the upstart of multiple different performers. Some aspiring performers gather there at the start of their journeys instead to get help in their start in becoming future performers.

It was such a famous company that even male performers from other regions who want to participate in things called Pokemon Contests, kind of the same thing as Showcases, and also allows males to participate as well.

If Palermo herself sees them as having some potential, a few might even be selected to be trained their in the performer arts by some experienced performers. It was known for creating some rather successful performers, gaining it great reputation.

This was the main purpose behind the production company that Palermo owns, but it also has a secondary business of producing movies and such. While they rarely do, they are usually greatly reviewed as very professional and awe inspiring.

Back in his old world, Cayde had been in a number of movies before and had always been told that he should definitely get a career in acting if he were to ever stop being an idol. He never really thought of himself as an actor, so he wasn't too sure what to say about that at the time.

"Hm?" Cayde stopped his actions as small hushed sounds sounded into his ears. He rose an eyebrow and turned his head over his right shoulder, he seemed confused as he didn't see anything out of the ordinary. "Was I imagining it?"

As he was about to ignore it and pick up his phone, a loud bang was heard as he quickly whipped his head around to see what it was. When he did, he widened his eyes to see that a wooden board that was previously stood up had fallen to the floor.

Though, what caught his attention the most was the fact that he saw two pokemon that looked very much like one another toppled on top of each other. From the positioning of them, he could tell that one of them had tripped over the other, with the one that tripped on top of the other now laying on top of the other one.

The two pokemon were bipedal from the looks and were both cream coloured, along with having long ears, though they were a bit rounded at the ends. The one on the bottom had blue ears, along with a tail that strangely looked like a subtraction symbol.

The one that was laying on top of the blue was had red ears instead, along with having a red tail that was, just as oddly, was reminiscent of that of an addition symbol. Both of them were groaning as they seemed to be in a bit of pain due to the fall.

"What the...? Plusle and Minun, right?" Cayde muttered as he recognised the two pokemon in front of him. He watched as the two pokemon panicked as they took notice that he had discovered them, which they both flailed around a bit before quickly trying to run for the door... Only to trip once again and roll before smacking their faces right against the door.

This earned a sweatdrop from Cayde...

"You two okay...?" Cayde asked curiously as he stood up and walked over to them before looking down at the both of them, who had comically pried themselves off the door and fell to the ground. Both of the electric-types quickly sat up and looked at him, nervous expressions on their faces. "Calm down, I'm not going to hurt you two."

Both pokemon looked at Cayde for a bit, the male just keeping a calm and gentle expression as the both of them assessed him. They seemed to calm down as the friendly air around Cayde seemed comforting, so their nervousness dimmed down by quite a lot.

"So, why are you guys here? Do you need something?" Cayde didn't see them coming in or when he himself came in, so he was rather curious to find out. Upon hearing the question, the plusle stood up instantly, followed by the minun.

He watched as both of them seemed to release some sparks from their bodies as big smiles were present on their faces. He blinked as both of them suddenly began dancing in unison, though there was something strangely familiar with their movements...

"Wait... isn't this?" Cayde blinked in surprise as the movements that the both of them were doing were the same dance moves that he had done when performing not too long ago. They were rough around the edges, but still the same dance moves. "Did you guys watch me perform?"

Both the plusle and the minun nodded their heads quickly as they released a small wave of sparks, showing their joy as they looked up at him with big smiles. Just by looking at their expression, he could tell that they greatly enjoyed his performance. Anyone would be able to tell.

"Well, I'm glad you guys enjoyed it." Cayde smiled as both the electric-types did the same and joined one of each other's hand and raised them, giving off sparks from their joined paws while doing so. Cayde knew they were known as cheerleading pokemon, so some actions they did seemed to definitely display that. "Though, why are you guys... wait, are you both male?"

In response to the question, the plusle shook its head and pointed at the minun, with the minun also doing the same, though pointing at itself. Cayde nodded his head in understanding. Minun was the male, Plusle was a female.

"Cayde, it's Palermo! Can I come in?"

"Oh, sure! Go right ahead!" Cayde haerd Palermo's voice come from behind the door as he quickly replied. The door soon opened in response, and there stood Palermo, with her glasses in hand. She blinked in confusion as she looked down to see Cayde knelt down beside the two electric-types that were looking behind and up at her with curious gazes.

"Oh? Who are these two?"

"They're Plusle and Minun, I kinda just found them in here. Apparently they watched my performance and probably ended up following in here." Cayde had explained as he stood up and looked down at the two. "I was just having a small chat with them."

"I see. Nice to meet you then, Plusle. Minun." Palermo gave a small smile with her greeting as both electric-types just gave small nods in response to her, small smiles present on their faces. Palermo then looked at Cayde. "So, are you prepared? We should be leaving now."

"Yep, I'm ready. I'm ready to go whenever." Cayde nodded as he placed one hand on his hip. He walked over and grabbed his bag while pocketting his phone, and as he was about to walk out with Palermo. He felt tugging on his pants. "Plusle? Minun?"

Both Palermo and Cayde looked down to see both of the pokemon tugging on Cayde's pants, one of them on each of Cayde's legs. They were looking up at him and giving him a few seemingly desperate cries as they continued to tug at him.

"What's wrong? I can't understand you two..." Cayde frowned slightly as he looked down at them. He just grew even more confused as both of them seemed to dance a bit, the same dance moves that he did on the stage. They were obviously trying to convey something.

As this was happening, Palermo just observed the two electric-types for a bit as she seemed to grow a small smile of seemingly understanding. While Cayde looked confused, Palermo seemed to have realised something as she then voiced her thoughts.

"I believe I know what they want."

"Hm? What do you mean?"

"I believe they want to come along with you."

"..."

"..."

"Huh?"

Meanwhile, inside of what appeared to be rather fancy looking hotel room, and one that is most definitely rather expensive considering the sheer size and quality of the interior, a young girl who was seventeen or so in age was seated at one of the tables in the room.

The girl had long red hair and fair skin as she was looking on a laptop that was placed on the desk in front of you. Behind her were two pokemon, one that looked to be a yellow fox-like pokemon with a stick of sorts placed into the fluffy tail that it had. The other pokemon was covered in purple feathers along with having a white face.

The two pokemon were Braixen and Aromatisse respectively.

"I wonder what Palermo sent me, she said that I'll want to see it. I wonder what it could be..." Aria, the name of the young girl, voiced with curiosity as the two pokemon behind her also seemed rather curious themselves. "What do you guys think?"

Both Braixen and Aromatise exchanged a glance with one another as they both shrugged their shoulders, also being confused as to what could stir the famous producer they knew so much. They knew Palermo well, and not a lot can incite such a reaction from the woman.

Aria went through her laptop before landing on the file that she had been sent by Palermo, the file being a video file. Aria curiously moved the cursor over before clicking onto it, causing a video screen to appear as she expanded it into fullscreen.

Turning up the volume on the laptop, the three of them watched curiously as they could see that Palermo was recording from the high vantage point of her personal booth. Her phone recording down towards the showcase stage.

"Who's he?" Aria, along with the other two, blinked in surprise as they saw a male on the stage. They could tell this was at one of the Pokemon Showcase venues, so seeing a male on the stage aside from Pierre was a real shocker.

However, that surprise only grew by incredible magnitudes as the young man began singing as he danced on the stage. Even though they weren't there in person, they could see just how amazing the male was performing. His movements smooth and perfected. His voice perfectly pitched, and so much more.

True, she wasn't able to fully see his appearance clearly due to the distance between where Palermo was recording at and the stage, but she could still tell at least that his movements and overall performance was perfection in her eyes. She couldn't identify any faults!

The three of them couldn't say any words as they continued watching, they were completely breathtaken as they were entranced by the performance being done. Even as the climax of the performance passed, they weren't able to speak as they were still in shock.

Aria had seen countless other perfomances in her life, both male and female. However, just something about this young man's performance made her breathless. After such a long time in her life time, she felt as if she saw something completely unreachable in this world of performances.

Who was this person?

Where did they come from?

How hadn't she heard or seen him before?!
