The main Appeals Round begins with a {{p|Ninetales}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}}, before giving way to Harley and his {{p|Banette}}, who terrifies Vivian and even May side stage with its malicious smile. Banette uses {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} and then strikes itself with {{m|Thunder}}, scoring 89 out of 100. Several other {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s score well, an {{p|Alakazam}}, a {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Sunflora}}, {{p|Ledian}}, {{p|Electrode}}, and {{p|Lickitung}} all scoring in the high seventies and eighties. Drew and May both show their confidence for moving on. | The main Appeals Round begins with a {{p|Ninetales}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}}, before giving way to Harley and his {{p|Banette}}, who terrifies Vivian and even May side stage with its malicious smile.

Vivian calls Anthony, while Ash, Jenny, and the real Anthony watch from the shadows for who comes out. Jessie in her best impression of a male voice, comes jogging down the corridor. As Jessie walks by, Anthony stops her in her tracks and confronts her. Meowth and James, watching from afar, are stunned by the appearance of the real Anthony, as well as Ash and Jenny. Jessie denies being an imposter only for Swalot to use {{m|Swallow}} then {{m|Spit Up}}, spitting out a now costume-less Jessie. Jenny orders her under arrest, only for Jessie to challenge her. However, before she can call out a Pokémon, James and Meowth, afraid of prison, seize her arms and drag her away. Anthony takes his place on stage with an impressive appeal by using Swalot's fluid body for an impressive entry. It smashes apart its own {{m|Sludge Bomb}} with {{m|Bullet Seed}} and Swallows the whole lot for a clean finish, earning himself 82 points. | Vivian calls Anthony, while Ash, Jenny, and the real Anthony watch from the shadows for who comes out.

May comes out next, and sends out her Skitty to great applause. She orders Assist to successfully produce Silver Wind, then follows up with a range of other attacks which impresses Mr. Sukizo, but Raoul Contesta is not thrilled as Skitty is not showing its own attributes off. However, when Assist becomes {{m|Solar Beam}}, May is thrown off because she did not realize that any of her Pokémon knew Solar Beam. Caroline wonders if Solar Beam belongs to Munchlax, who is sleeping on her lap. May jumps back into action with an Assist that results in Petal Dance, which looks good but leaves Skitty {{status|confusion|confused}}. Much to the group's horror, Skitty begins to run in circles much to the audience's amusement. May has no idea how to get Skitty back on track, as she does not want to risk Assist again. Backstage, Harley is gleeful at May's disastrous performance before he is confronted by Drew. Harley shrugs off his foul play tactic as competition. Back on stage, May is still torn and thinks Harley had her best interests at heart, but decides to ignore his advice and tell Skitty to use {{m|Double Slap}} on itself, breaking it out of confusion. Harley is horrified, but Drew is satisfied. May orders Skitty to finish with {{m|Blizzard}}, creating a towering fortress of ice. May scores 79, which has the group in doubt as to whether she can advance. Backstage, May apologizes to Harley for not following his advice, only for Drew to reveal to her that Harley knew all along that sticking with Assist would end badly for May, and purposely advised her to do so to with the intention of making her lose, with Harley admitting that Drew is correct and telling May that she was a fool for trusting him. Hurt and angry, May questions why Harley would do something so despicable, to which he replies that it was to get revenge on her for [[AG103|defeating him]] in the [[Purika City]] competition. May believes that Harley is unjust in wanting revenge for losing fair and square, but Harley shrugs her off and assures her that she will lose this competition, before shouldering her and walking off. Drew tells May that Harley was right about it being foolish for her to trust him, and that she should instead trust in her own heart and do what ''she'' knows is right, before also walking off. May visibly takes this advice to heart. | May comes out next, and sends out her Skitty to great applause.
