She later trains with Zoey in coming up with different Contest moves regularly as evidenced by ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]''. However she was not able to perfect {{AP|Buizel}}'s [[Ash's Buizel#Moves improvised|Ice Aqua Jet]] despite coming up with the idea. Ash later accomplishes this in the [[Wallace Cup]]. | She later trains with Zoey in coming up with different Contest moves regularly as evidenced by ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]''.

Despite her confidence and Contest training, in ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night!]]'', when she competed in the [[Hearthome City]] Contest, she lost in the Appeal Round, making her the first of the main characters to lose a Contest by losing in the appeal round. In ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', she lost the Appeal Round for the second time in a row. This marked a notable change in Dawn's character. After the second blow to her self-esteem, she didn't know what to do and was still very upset throughout ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''. After this, she became more focused and regained her confidence after {{pkmn|battle|battling}} [[Maylene]] in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. Dawn began to practice in earnest and eventually was able to break her losing streak in ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' and was able to win the [[Wallace Cup]] after narrowly defeating {{an|May}} in the final round. Dawn has since maintained her new found focus and humility. | Despite her confidence and Contest training, in ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night!]]'', when she competed in the [[Hearthome City]] Contest, she lost in the Appeal Round, making her the first of the main characters to lose a Contest by losing in the appeal round.
