Aside from regular battles, friendship is valued in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, since the level of cooperation between {{pkmn|Coordinator}} and Pokémon is observed by the [[Contest Judge|panel of judges]] during the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]]. Additionally, in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]], Coordinators are expected to be in synchronicity with their Pokémon the entire time. In ''[[AG078|Cruisin' for a Losin']]'', the Director of the {{pkmn|Activities Committee|Contest Committee}}, [[Raoul Contesta|Mr. Contesta]], stated that a Pokémon's well being must be the number one priority of a Coordinator. | Aside from regular battles, friendship is valued in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, since the level of cooperation between {{pkmn|Coordinator}} and Pokémon is observed by the [[Contest Judge|panel of judges]] during the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]].

In ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]'', Contest Master [[Wallace]] stressed out the importance of kinship. He also said that playing with Pokémon can help Trainers and Coordinators in learning how to bring out the potential of their Pokémon. In addition to enhancing a Pokémon's appearance, {{pkmn|groomer|Pokémon grooming}} is said to make them happier. Trainers who devote themselves to the development of techniques that improve a Pokémon's health and happiness are known as {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}s. | In ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]'', Contest Master [[Wallace]] stressed out the importance of kinship.

As in the {{pkmn|games}}, friendship affects the [[power]] of {{m|Frustration}}. This was shown in ''[[AG175|Going for Choke!]]'', in which [[Harley]]'s {{p|Banette}} received a boost while using the [[move]] under the command of [[Jessie]], a Trainer it does not like. Although the concept of {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship|Evolution by friendship}} has not been addressed directly, the [[Soothe Bell]] has appeared in the anime. In the {{series|XY}}, the friendship between Ash and his {{AP|Greninja}} triggered a temporary transformation known as [[Bond Phenomenon]]. | As in the {{pkmn|games}}, friendship affects the [[power]] of {{m|Frustration}}.
