Ash and Celeste were received by the warm welcome of Zoey as they arrived in the picturesque Snowpoint City. As they exchanged greetings, Zoey's admiration for Celeste was palpable. She shared her dreams of becoming a renowned coordinator like Celeste when she grew up, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she talked about her aspirations. Celeste, as she listened to Zoey's words, was genuinely touched by the impact she had on the aspiring coordinator.

The welcoming committee grew even larger as Candice, the Gym Leader of Snowpoint City, joined the group. Candice's vibrant personality and air of confidence marked her as a force to be reckoned with, both as a trainer and as a mentor. It turned out that Candice had a special connection with Zoey, as she taught her at the Pokemon Trainer School. With a twinkle in her eye, Candice shared her plans with Ash and Celeste. Before the gym battle, she wanted to introduce them to her special class of older trainers. This group included Jeremiah, a devoted employee of the Poketch company, who had a travel companion in his Skuntank.

As they entered the school, the air was charged with anticipation, the students' eagerness tangible. Candice's voice rang out, capturing the attention of the class. Her introduction of Ash and Celeste was met with a mix of curiosity and admiration. The class listened intently as she highlighted their achievements of their pokemon journey so far. Jeremiah, with his Skuntank by his side, nodded in appreciation.

With the classroom's attention now fully focused on Ash and Celeste, Candice's dynamic teaching style shifted into high gear. The quick-fire quiz challenge was her chosen method of engaging the special class of experienced trainers. She fired off a series of rapid-fire questions, her voice infused with a playful yet competitive tone. The challenge was met with knowing smiles from Ash and Celeste. Their shared history as top students at the Opelucid Academy had honed their ability to think on their feet and respond swiftly to intellectual challenges. The familiar spark of friendly rivalry ignited between them, their competitive spirits rising to the surface.

As Candice's questions rang out, Ash and Celeste's hands shot up in unison. The atmosphere crackled with anticipation as they competed to provide the quickest, most accurate answers. Jeremiah, though clearly competent, struggled to keep up with their lightning-fast responses. But this was a contest that played right into Ash and Celeste's strengths. Their hands seemed to blur as they competed to answer questions ranging from pokemon types and abilities to battle strategies and trivia about various regions. The memories of their time at Opelucid Academy rushed back, their shared history and the countless hours of studying propelling them forward. The classroom was filled with laughter and shouts of excitement as Ash and Celeste vied for the top spot.

Candice watched with amusement and satisfaction as the two former classmates engaged in the friendly competition. And as the final question was posed, the tension in the room was palpable. In a heartbeat, both Ash and Celeste provided their answers, their voices ringing out in perfect harmony. It was a tie—a fitting conclusion to the contest. The class erupted in applause and cheers, the thrill of the challenge uniting everyone in the room.

As the cheers subsided, Candice's laughter filled the air. She commended Ash and Celeste for their impressive performance, their teamwork and shared knowledge evident to all. The quiz challenge had achieved its purpose, bringing the class together in a lighthearted yet fiercely competitive manner. Jeremiah, though not the victor, sported a wide grin as he shook hands with both Ash and Celeste.

Excitement buzzed in the air as the group made their way to the Snowpoint City Gym. The special class, Zoey, Celeste, and even Jeremiah were welcomed by Candice with a warm smile. The gym was an impressive sight, its icy interior contrasting with the warmth of anticipation that filled the air. As everyone took their positions in the observation area, Candice and Ash stepped onto the battlefield. The spectators watched with bated breath, knowing that a fierce battle was about to unfold. Candice's Sneasel stood opposite Ash's Agni. The icy tension was broken by a lighthearted cheer from Zoey, igniting the excitement in everyone's hearts.
