Unlike the other Grand Festivals, Sinnoh Grand Festival only has one [[appeal]]s round instead of two. The competition is held under the [[Double Performance]] rule, which means that {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s must use two Pokémon in all rounds. | Unlike the other Grand Festivals, Sinnoh Grand Festival only has one [[appeal]]s round instead of two.

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

=== | ===Battles=== | ||
There is one day of rest between the first and second rounds. The second round marks 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. | There is one day of rest between the first and second rounds.
