Sinnoh Grand Festival: Difference between revisions

Due to the number of participants, the appeal stage of the Sinnoh Grand Festival was divided up onto three stages; the Red Stage, the Green Stage, and the Blue Stage. The Red Stage was judged by Fantina and the Nurse Joy from [[Jubilife City]], while Mr. Sukizo and the Nurse Joy from [[Pastoria City]] judged the Green Stage. The Blue Stage was judged by Mr. Contesta and the Nurse Joy from [[Lilycove City]]. The stages could be modified for each Coordinator (for instance, when [[Zoey]] appealed with her {{p|Gastrodon}} and {{p|Lumineon}}, the stage transformed into a pool which was perfect for the two {{type|Water}} Pokémon to use). Each Coordinator performed on one of the stages. Once everyone had appealed, the 32 top scoring Coordinators progressed to the second round.

The second round marked the beginning of the Grand Festival's [[Contest Battle|battle round]]s with some changes to the layout. The number of Coordinators in the second round is reduced to 32 and the battles were conducted on a single stage instead of a trio of stages. Also, the amount of judges is reduced from six to four. All Coordinators were matched-up randomly by computer up to the semi-finals. Coordinators who run out of points, have their Pokémon [[fainting|knocked out]] or have the least amount of points once the time runs out are eliminated from the Grand Festival.
