Upon your match's acceptance, you receive directions to the new ASB League Normal Gym via e-mail. As it would happen, this gym resides in a small, recently constructed live theatre built in Slateport City. One way or another, you make your way to this bustling city. Crowds of people line up in the city to see the contests, the Oceanic Museum, and what seems to be a relatively new attraction: The Four Seasons Theatre. Atop it you see statues of Deerling and Castform, surrounded on the four corners by symbols representing the seasons.
You make your way through the line and into the building, thinking it is likely the Normal Gym you were told about. Inside lies a clean and stylish lobby, where people line up to get tickets for the upcoming shows, which seem to include fare typical to a live theatre. Just as you are convinced you have gotten the wrong address, a man in a red beret approaches you. "Ah, you must be the new gym challenger." he says to you. "Please, head right this way, the show's about to start."
The man leads you inside the back of the theatre where many preparations are being made for an upcoming show. Actors and actresses are putting on makeup, stagehands are hard at work preparing the stage, and the overall result is that of a huge hustle and bustle. The two of you approach another, considerably younger, gentleman wearing a fedora. He greets you and says "Oh, you here for the match? The Leader's thataway!" He points towards a door, and as if on cue, the door opens and a man comes out the door, having on an outfit of grey and orange.
He clears his throat and says "Why hello there new challenger! Are you ready for the fight to begin? No not right now, we've still got a few minutes before the curtains open. I am Maxim, the ASB Normal Gym leader, and I welcome you to my abode."
"Before we begin, let me lay down some ground rules. First off, the rules of the theatre prohibit any moves or abilities that would disable or mess with the routine operation of any held item. These items are essential to the actors' costumes, and removing them can cause problems for the show. Second, this also applies to abilities, save for Trace. We believe in making sure the Pokemons' natural abilities shine through, and messing with those can cause discomfort to these actors. Finally, if either of us decide to phase out the opposition, the opposition, not random chance, gets to decide what comes out next. This is to prevent any wild entrances from confusing the audience."
Soon after that info dump, a female voice calls out "Hey, we ready to start yet? It's almost time for the show to begin."
Maxim chuckles, then says "Well you heard the lady, it is almost time for our performance. Have fun, and do your very best in this matchup. After all, my Pokemon may be Normal typed, but they are anything but normal!"
After this, the curtains open, and before you know it, the battle has begun!

Summary:
- All Items must be kept as Normal in the Normal gym. This means that items cannot be swapped, stolen, knocked off, restrained, destroyed, or rendered unable to be used in any way. Consumable Items will still be consumed after the normal number of uses. Fling still works as normal.
- All Abilities must be kept as Normal in the Normal gym. This means that abilities cannot be swapped, copied, disabled, or rendered unable to be used at any time. The sole exception to this is Trace, which works as normal because it is a natural part of the ability itself.
- If a Pokemon is forced out by a Switch-Forcing Move or a Red Card, that Pokemon's trainer can choose which Pokemon goes in next.
- Camouflage turns the Pokemon into a Normal Type.
- Secret Power has a 30% chance to Flinch.
- Nature Power summons Tri Attack.
