The '''Wallace Cup''' (Japanese: '''ミクリカップ''' ''Mikuri Cup'') is a special [[Pokémon Contest]] hosted and judged by former {{Ci|Sootopolis}} [[Gym Leader]] and current [[Hoenn]] {{pkmn|Champion}}, the master {{pkmn|Coordinator}} [[Wallace]]. The event was introduced in ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]'', while the actual contest took place in the episodes ''[[DP077|Staging A Heroes' Welcome!]]'', ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', and ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]''.

The Wallace Cup is hosted at various locations throughout the world, and the most recent one was hosted at [[Lake Valor]] in [[Sinnoh]], with the prize being the Aqua [[Ribbon]] that counts towards ''any'' [[region]]'s [[Grand Festival]], not merely that of the region it is won in. For this reason, Coordinators migrated from all around the {{pkmn|nation}} to compete in it.


It was announced on ''[[Sinnoh Now]]'', where {{an|Dawn}} found out about it and became excited. Eventually, she, {{Ash}}, and {{an|Brock}} ran into Wallace himself, who was relaxing with his {{p|Milotic}} in a lake; Ash was convinced to enter the Contest with {{AP|Buizel}}, which he used in the three rounds he competed in before losing.

First Round
==Competition==
The 16 coordinators are randomly paired with other competitors by a computer and each trainer is allowed to use only one [[Pokémon]] per match.

Second Round
The second round is the same as the first round. The victors are moving on to the semi-finals.


Semi-finals
Like all Sinnoh Pokémon Contests, [[Marian]] is the announcer. [[Jessie|Jessadia]], who was Jessie in disguise, also hosted the Wallace Cup with Marian.


Semi-finals are the same as both first and second round matches. The victors are moving on to the finals.
==Rounds==
Each round is judged by a panel of four individuals. They include [[Raoul Contesta]], [[Mr. Sukizo]], [[Nurse Joy]] and the Contest master [[Wallace]].


Finals
===Appeals===
Just like ordinary contests, the first round is the appeals stage. Coordinators have their Pokémon perform various [[move]]s in order to impress the judges. The top scoring Coordinators from this round move on to the next stage.


Final match will determine who wins the [[Aqua Ribbon]] and a [[Wallace Cup]].
===Battle rounds===
The next rounds show how skilled Coordinators and their Pokémon are when put into battle. Whoever loses is out of the tournament, and the winner keeps going until he or she gets to the fifth and final round. All matches are decided randomly by computer. The winner of the final round is then declared the winner of the Wallace Cup.
