The winner of a Contest battle is the one that has more points when time runs out, the one that reduced the opponent's points to zero, or, if a Pokémon [[fainting|fainted]] during the battle, the one with the remaining Pokémon. If there is a tie at the end of five minutes, the battle goes into Sudden Death, which is an extension of the battle with no time limit. The Sudden Death ends when a Coordinator's Pokémon is knocked out or when a Coordinator runs out of points. | The winner of a Contest battle is the one that has more points when time runs out, the one that reduced the opponent's points to zero, or, if a Pokémon [[fainting|fainted]] during the battle, the one with the remaining Pokémon.
