In some of the [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]], {{player}}s may choose to focus on raising Pokémon for the exclusive purpose of doing well in Contests, making them part-time Coordinators. In order to increase their chances of winning Ribbons, they have to maximize one particular condition of their Pokémon and prioritize the Contest properties when selecting the moves they will teach them, since battle properties, such as [[power]] and [[accuracy]], have no effect in Contests. | In some of the [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]], {{player}}s may choose to focus on raising Pokémon for the exclusive purpose of doing well in Contests, making them part-time Coordinators.

They travel across one or more [[region]]s, competing in Contests and collecting Ribbons with the goal of winning the [[Grand Festival]] to receive the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of {{DL|Grand Festival|Top Coordinator}}. In a similar way to how a [[Pokémon Trainer]] needs to collect eight [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s to participate in the [[Pokémon League Conference]], a Pokémon Coordinator needs to garner five {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s to compete in the Grand Festival. However, since a Contest is an event that occurs within a given period of time, Coordinators get just one chance to earn a certain Ribbon. | They travel across one or more [[region]]s, competing in Contests and collecting Ribbons with the goal of winning the [[Grand Festival]] to receive the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of {{DL|Grand Festival|Top Coordinator}}.

During the Performance Stage, Coordinators need to showcase their Pokémon's charms in order to appeal to the judges, by displaying an array of moves that bring out the very best in their Pokémon while captivating the audience with showiness. The second round consists of [[wp:single-elimination tournament|single-elimination]] Contest Battles, where Coordinators and Pokémon are judged on the style of their moves and the way they're able to dodge their opponents' attacks. In a competition featuring the [[Double Performance]] format, Coordinators are required to show off two Pokémon at once. | During the Performance Stage, Coordinators need to showcase their Pokémon's charms in order to appeal to the judges, by displaying an array of moves that bring out the very best in their Pokémon while captivating the audience with showiness.
