	Some fancy, flavorful blurb about Performers goes here

Mechanic : Some Performer features target Pokémon’s moves and add keywords to their moves. At any time, a Pokémon may have up to X known moves, where X is the greater of half of the Pokémon’s Intelligence Capability or 1, altered by a Performer feature. A Pokémon may only have a move affected by a single Performer feature at any time. If a Pokémon is at its maximum effect alterations, a previously existing move’s effect must be forgotten in order to add a new Performer feature to its move.

In combat, the move gains the effect “The selected move Flinches the target on 17-20 during Accuracy Check.” If the selected move can already induce the Flinch status, it instead reduces the check’s requirement to activate by 3. You can take Awestruck up to 3 times.

Target: A Move your Pokémon knows
Effect: Spend an hour practicing a move with your Pokémon and select a Contest and Battle Type. When your Pokemon performs the selected move in a Contest, the selected move raises the Voltage by 1 more than it normally would when used for that Contest type. When your Pokémon uses the selected move in Combat, the move is twice as effective as it normally would be against Pokémon of that type. If the Pokémon is immune to that type, it instead takes one fourth of the damage it normally would after calculations.

Rile Up the Crowd: Performer Feature ( TA ) – ( LI )
Prerequisites: Performer, 22 CHA
Daily
Target: A Wild Pokémon
Effect: Roll 1d20 and add your CHA modifier. If the result exceeds five times the Pokémon’s Intelligence capability, it gains the “Excited” title until either the target is attacked, severely distracted, or X rounds have passed, where X is half of the user’s CHA modifier. Outside of combat, Rile Up the Crowd lasts for up to X hours instead. Pokémon with the “Excited” title can be coerced into performing a single action of your choice. action may be anything the Pokémon is capable of doing as long as it isn’t outright morally opposed to doing so (See Note). Up to X Pokémon may be targeted by Rile Up the Crowd in a single use.

( Note : When crafting the feat, the idea I had in mind is that a Performer might be able to induce a “mob hysteria” of sorts in the Pokémon, allowing them to act uninhibited. This might temporarily relieve a fear or phobia that the Pokémon might have, or convince them to forsake logic [if the Pokémon has any] and act impulsively, perhaps on impulses that wouldn’t have been there if the Performer didn’t introduce the idea to the Pokémon. This may very well end up resulting in Pokémon doing things they may later come to regret or resent the Trainer for [Because stuffing one’s self into a two-inch PokeBall and running off from home doesn’t really sound as amazing as it did five hours ago] )

Set the Stage: Performer Feature ( S ) – ( LI )
Prerequisites: Performer, Your Pokémon know 3 moves with the “Get Ready” Contest Keyword
Static – Activate once outside of an encounter
Target: A Move your Pokémon knows
Effect: Spend two hours practicing a move with your Pokémon. The move gains the “Get Ready” Contest Keyword. Choose a Stat. The move gains the effect “The selected stat is raised 1 Combat Stage.” You can take Set the Stage up to 3 times.

The Big Finale: Performer Feature ( TA ) – ( LP )
Prerequisites: Performer, End Set OR Your Pokémon know 3 moves with the “Round Ender” Contest Keyword
Daily
Trigger: Your Pokémon goes last in a round
Effect: In Contests, your Pokémon’s move gains the “Round Ender” Contest Keyword. In Battle, this Feature and a secondary effect of the Pokémon’s move must be declared before rolling your Accuracy Check. If the move connects with its target, the chosen secondary effect the move may have activates, regardless of the Accuracy Check.

( Note : Possibly work in “Seen Nothing Yet” as a possibility / alternative for The Big Finale? )
