In the [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]] and [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{pkmn|Contest}}s and {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s are separated into four different '''ranks''' (Japanese: '''ランク''' ''rank''). A Pokémon must win a contest in each previous rank in the same [[Contest condition|category]] to participate in a higher rank.

[[File:Rubello Contest poster.png|thumb|200px|A poster for the R1 Rubello Contest]]
In the [[Pokémon anime]], there is no ranking system in place. Instead, [[Pokémon Contest]]s are represented as being at the same level as one another. Additionally, much like how eight [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s are required to enter the [[Pokémon League Conference]], a total of five [[Ribbon]]s must be collected to qualify for the [[Grand Festival]].
A class of Pokémon Contests was revealed to exist in ''[[AG077|A Fan with a Plan]]'', where {{an|May}} discovered that the {{to|Rubello}} Contest was a Class R1 event, meaning that only [[Pokémon Coordinator]]s who had earned at least one Ribbon were allowed to participate. The competition was also unique in the fact that it was the only Pokémon Contest in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]] where contestants had to use one Pokémon for the [[Appeal|Appeals Round]] and another for the [[Contest Battle]]s.
May, [[Drew]], and [[Savannah]] all entered the Rubello Contest in ''[[AG078|Cruisin' for a Losin']]''. [[Jessie]] also tried to enter, but was denied access for not having a Ribbon. During the event, May and her {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} lost to Savannah and her {{p|Lairon}}. Later, Drew managed to defeat Savannah, winning his fourth Contest Ribbon. Since then, no other R1 Contest has been held.
