Like the [[condition|five stats]] introduced for Contests, [[performance|five additional stats]] were added for the Pokéathlon: Speed, Power, Skill, Stamina, and Jump. Like the Contest conditions and battle stats, a Pokémon's performance stats are affected by its [[nature]] (more directly so, like the battle stats, than the condition) and by [[Apriblender|special foodstuffs]] used to boost them.

By winning events in the Pokéathlon, the participating Pokémon will earn medals for their {{OBP|Pokémon|species|species}}. Their Trainers will earn points for the competition based on how well the team did, if they qualified for any of the several bonuses, and a win will earn their Trainer an additional 100 points (300 points in the Supreme Cup), all which can be spent on prizes at the Salon Shop or Data Cards with which the player may see records of various actions, course wins and losses, and multiple other statistics in the Pokéathlon Dome.

Once the National Pokédex <!-- Or is it simply beating the Elite Four? --> is obtained and the player has talked with [[Magnus]] in the Friendship Room, the Supreme Cup is unlocked. The opponents are slightly harder, but Trainers who get in first place here will earn a bonus 300 points instead of the regular 100.

* Since {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}} have a maximum jump stat of one, they are incapable of jumping; in Lamp Jump they can't move at all, in Disc Catch they can only move around, and in Hurdle Dash they dig under the hurdles. This makes earning a Jump medal for these two species much more of a challenge than other species.
