'''Ring Drop''' (Japanese:'''リングアウトファイト''' ''Ring-Out Fight'') is somewhat based on {{wp|sumo}}, however, it is between four Pokéathletes, rather than two. Pokémon compete by tackling each other, trying to knock opponents out of the ring. Jumping tackles are also allowed. A Pokémon ousted from the ring will be replaced by their teammate.

Scoring is determined by the number of successful jumping tackles (2 points for each jumping tackle that lands), the number of successful tackles (1 point for each tackle that lands), the number of times the player's Pokémon runs off the edge of the ring (minus ten points for each time this occurs), and opponent's Pokémon knocked out of the ring (ten points for each time this occurs).  No points are lost if a team's Pokémon knocked off the ring by an opponent; points are only deducted if the Pokémon throws itself out of the ring.  The final score from these results is then multiplied by 1.5 and is used as the point score, to later be converted into Athlete Points. A player that makes an exceptional, record-breaking performance of 134 or more points in this event is given the maximum possible score of 200.

According to "The Official Pokémon Johto Guide & Johto Pokédex", the top six recommended Pokémon are {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Slowbro}}, {{p|Vileplume}}, {{p|Wobbuffet}}, {{p|Shuckle}}, and {{p|Ursaring}}. This is the first event in the Stamina competition, the only competition it is a part of.
