The upcoming [[Gardenia Town]] {{pkmn|Contest}} gives {{an|May}} the chance to win her fourth [[Ribbon]]. May trains with her {{TP|May|Eevee}} to prepare it for its first Contest. Meanwhile, a girl named [[Mollie]] and her {{p|Raticate}} are trying to register for the Contest. Having briefly run away from May, Eevee pops out of the ground, knocking Mollie over. May apologizes, and Mollie asks for directions to the registration desk. {{an|Brock}} gives her the directions, so Mollie runs off. Eevee goes underground again and comes back up, knocking {{Ash}} down. [[Max]] points out to May that Eevee has learned {{m|Dig}}. | The upcoming [[Gardenia Town]] {{pkmn|Contest}} gives {{an|May}} the chance to win her fourth [[Ribbon]].

A girl approaches Brock and picks up {{TP|Brock|Bonsly|Sudowoodo}}, calling it cute, which Brock first mistakes as a compliment for him. She introduces herself as [[Yuma]], a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}. Brock says he is also a breeder, but Yuma already noticed based on how he [[Pokémon training|raises]] his Pokémon and the food he feeds them. Brock sends out his other Pokémon for evaluation and shows the [[Pokéblock]] that he feeds to his {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}}.

Brock sends out his other Pokémon for evaluation and shows the [[Pokéblock]] that he feeds to his {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}}. Yuma seems impressed at Brock's talent and asks if he enters Contests, but he does not, which surprises her. Yuma reveals that she was also a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} and has even won the [[Grand Festival]]. She wants to pass her techniques on to other Coordinators, mainly beginners. May asks Yuma to teach her some techniques, but Yuma mentions that May is already good enough. Brock immediately runs into the [[Contest Hall]] and quickly returns with a [[Contest Pass]], officially entering himself in the Gardenia Contest. | ||
Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] orders {{MTR}} and [[James]] to help her sell fake Ribbons and merchandise to make money in order to get her new costumes since she sold off her ''Jessebella'' wardrobe to cover the cost of their [[Team Rocket's mechas|mechas]]. James looks at the fake Ribbons and notices, to his dismay, that Jessie is using his bottle caps to make them. | Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] orders {{MTR}} and [[James]] to help her sell fake Ribbons and merchandise to make money in order to get her new costumes since she sold off her ''Jessebella'' wardrobe to cover the cost of their [[Team Rocket's mechas|mechas]].

The [[Appeal|Appeals Round]] begins with Mollie sending out Raticate. It uses {{m|Hyper Fang}} to quickly grind a log into dust, shining its fangs and getting appeal. May opens with {{TP|May|Squirtle|Wartortle}}, using {{m|Rapid Spin}} to create waves of dust. It follows up with {{m|Bubble}} to create a tall pyramid before using {{m|Ice Beam}} to {{status|Freeze|freeze}} the structure, ending with a strong appeal. | ||
Brock makes his debut as the last contestant, sending out Bonsly and opening with {{m|Fake Tears}}. Brock deviates from the Contest routine with his usual attraction to [[Nurse Joy]], and Lilian pulls him away. He bounces back by tossing a {{wp|baseball}} at Bonsly, the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} catching it with its head branches. He throws five baseballs in the air as Bonsly uses {{m|Flail}} to juggle them, gaining a strong appeal. May watches nervously at Brock’s first performance.

Yuma and the others head to the back and praise them both. Yuma surprises everyone by asking Brock if he would become her study apprentice. | ||
The battle round begins with the first match, Mollie’s {{p|Absol}} against Brock’s Marshtomp. Absol opens with {{m|Razor Wind}} and Marshtomp dodges. Absol attempts a {{m|Quick Attack}}, but Marshtomp fires {{m|Mud Shot}} in its path, causing it to slip.
