With {{Ash}}'s battle at [[Sunyshore Gym]] being postponed, he and {{ashfr}} head over to [[Valor Lakefront]] to witness the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival|Grand Festival]]. The gang arrive at an unnamed seaside town following {{an|Dawn}}'s insistence. As the sun sets they meet [[Johanna]] on the beach along with her {{TP|Johanna|Glameow}}, quite a surprise for Ash and {{an|Brock}}. Johanna reveals the fact that she travels once in a while around [[Sinnoh]] to give seminars called "My Very First [[Pokémon Coordinator]] Class" which are aimed at helping young children glean some wisdom and guidance in leading their life with Pokémon. The seminars are quite well planned, even having a lesson plan, from which the gang come to know the contents of the seminar: getting to know {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, how to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a Pokémon, how to be a good Coordinator and all about [[Pokémon breeding]]. Sadly, the seminar planned for the kids of the beach town during the next day was going to be cancelled due to Johanna having to go fill in [[Nurse Joy]]'s place as a Contest judge. Dawn volunteers herself along with Ash and Brock to substitute for her during the next day's seminar, relieving Johanna and pumping the gang up at the prospect of a fun learning experience. | With {{Ash}}'s battle at [[Sunyshore Gym]] being postponed, he and {{ashfr}} head over to [[Valor Lakefront]] to witness the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival|Grand Festival]].

The next day dawns bright and sunny, perfect for having a good time. Ash and his friends begin the class with a great deal of zeal, only to have their confidence deflate when a brash young child called [[Thomas]] doubts their capability. Dawn and Ash show off their collection of {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s and [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s respectively to prove themselves, Ash failing to impress with his one missing Badge compared to Dawn's full Ribbon case.

Dawn and Ash show off their collection of {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s and [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s respectively to prove themselves, Ash failing to impress with his one missing Badge compared to Dawn's full Ribbon case. The seminar begins with getting to know Pokémon, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} volunteering to be petted and fawned over by the children. Thomas annoys Piplup, pulling the Pokémon's cheeks for fun. Dawn scolds Thomas and asks him to put himself in Piplup's place. The advice bounces off him completely. Meanwhile, [[Jessilina]] is putting on quite the performance in the [[Neighborly Town]] Pokémon Contest, with a brilliant electric wing [[Seal]] on Seviper and an almost tangible confidence. | ||
The gang brings out their full [[party]], to give the kids a chance to become familiar with more Pokémon. Even the hard headed Thomas was quite fascinated by the array of Pokémon. While Brock takes a breeding class, teaching the students the ins and outs of being a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} and how to make sure a Pokémon is healthy, Piplup takes a well-deserved nap, tuckered out from all the cuddling and fun. Thomas takes this opportunity to draw graffiti on Piplup's face, angering the Pokémon who chases Thomas along the beach. | The gang brings out their full [[party]], to give the kids a chance to become familiar with more Pokémon.

Dawn works on Ice Chandelier, determined to perfect it, her initial idea of having Pachirisu spin while using Discharge coming from Thomas' criticism on how boring the combination looked with both Pokémon standing still. However, Pachirisu gets too dizzy and the combo fails once again. | Ash then gave a lesson on how to catch a Pokémon, using a marked rock and rubber balls for target practice. Thomas is not impressed by the surprisingly good lesson Ash gives, boasting he could throw a Poké Ball just as well as Ash could. Thomas proved his amazing ball throwing skills by going completely off target and hitting Piplup in the face. Dawn begins to get worried about how she would fare in teaching Thomas. During her coordinating class she uses [[Zoey]]'s advice of keeping in mind that the Pokémon are the real stars and provides a good introduction to coordinating, which obviously did not impress Thomas. Angrily, to prove her mettle, Dawn unleashes Mamoswine and Cyndaquil to perform Flame Ice, illustrating a move combination for the aspiring Coordinators. Dawn also takes the opportunity to unveil Ice Chandelier, a combination involving Pachirisu's {{m|Discharge}} and Mamoswine's {{m|Ice Shard}}, which started out fantastically but petered out with a not so fantastic hiccup. | ||

However, Pachirisu gets too dizzy and the combo fails once again. While Dawn struggles to work out the kinks in her moves, Jessilina has won the Neighborly Contest, earning praise from Johanna on her Seviper's brilliant Haze and exquisite Poison Tail attacks. | |||
Dawn modifies Ice Chandelier by having Buneary create a bigger ice ball around Pachirisu using Ice Beam while twirling and having Pachirisu run in the ball while using Discharge. The move succeeds! In the revelry, Thomas and Piplup unexpectedly hug, a friendship having been formed between the two as they cheered Dawn and her Pokémon on. | Dawn modifies Ice Chandelier by having Buneary create a bigger ice ball around Pachirisu using Ice Beam while twirling and having Pachirisu run in the ball while using Discharge.

Later on, like Brock suspected, Thomas actually liked Piplup but out of frustration from not being able to say it, ended up teasing Piplup. The child apologised profusely to Piplup who genially accepted his sincere feelings. | Later on, like Brock suspected, Thomas actually liked Piplup but out of frustration from not being able to say it, ended up teasing Piplup.
