During the closing ceremony, all Trainers that competed at the conference march into Indigo Stadium one last time, and the Top 3 winning competitors are honored. Chairman Goodshow awards each Trainer with a Pokémon League [[Badge]] that signifies participation in the competition. Afterwards, the stadium lights dim for a fireworks show. Moltres's flame is extinguished until the next year's competition, and all battlers and spectators return home.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In The Electric Tale of Pikachu {{pkmn|manga}}, the Indigo Plateau Conference took place in ''[[ET12|Welcome to the Big Leagues]]'' and ''[[ET13|The Indigo Finals]]'', where the tournament had many differences compared to the anime:
* {{an|Professor Oak}} acted as one of the announcers instead of being in the audience.
* {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} also participated the tournament, but both lost their first round matches.
* Gary was defeated by Ritchie instead of Melissa.
* The fifth round battle between {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} and Ritchie began with two double-knockouts, followed by [[Ash's Charizard]] facing Ritchie's own {{p|Charizard}}, [[Zippo|Charley]]. Ash's Charizard, in its disobedience, ended up severly injuring Charley, prompting Ash to recall it and surrender the match.
* Ritchie's battle following the fifth round wasn't shown, making it unclear how far he got in the tournament.
