#2: Doesn't Stand a Chance

Dawn watches Zoey with increasing awe. Her performance, seemingly effortless, is deeply complex. Glameow is sincere, vivid, bringing tears to her eyes. The appeal is captivating.

Zoey is incredible, Dawn reflects. She has a bright inner spark, a dazzlingly unique, wonderful view. Zoey's beautiful, and in reflection, so is everything she does. Dawn realizes all coordinators and pokémon have a secret beauty that shines through their performances. For this, she loves every one.

Still, she despairs: she wants to put something beautiful in the world that will touch someone's heart, but against these glorious, starry people, she doesn't stand a chance.
