[[Marian]] makes her announcement and Dawn sends out {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}} while Zoey sends out {{TP|Zoey|Glameow}} and {{DL|Zoey|Gallade}}, evolved from her {{p|Kirlia}}. {{Ash}} checks Gallade out on his [[Pokédex]] when suddenly [[Johanna]] arrives to cheer on her daughter.

Dawn starts out with having Piplup jump on Togekiss's back and Togekiss flying up and using {{m|Aura Sphere}}. Piplup surrounds the Aura Sphere with {{m|BubbleBeam}}. Zoey has Glameow use {{m|Shadow Claw}} to cut the Aura Sphere in half and Gallade uses {{m|Psycho Cut}} to pop the BubbleBeam into a circling sparkling show causing Dawn to loses points as she stares at the sparkles in a daze while [[Fantina]] admires it greatly. Togekiss flies towards Gallade and Glameow then flies up. While distracted, Piplup starts to use {{m|Hydro Pump}}, however Zoey has Glameow use {{m|Fake Out}}. Glameow leaps at Piplup causing him to {{status|flinch}}, and Glameow then slams its paws together sending Piplup flying. Dawn loses more points now having 3/4ths of her full score. Piplup recovers and Zoey has Gallade use {{m|Vacuum Wave}} on Togekiss. Dawn tells Togekiss to use {{m|Air Slash}}. Togekiss dodges the Vacuum Wave and fires the Air Slash but Gallade backflips and dodges it. Zoey and Gallade look up at Togekiss, and Zoey knows not to underestimate it. Both Dawn and Zoey lose points.

Dawn tells Piplup to help Togekiss and Zoey tells Gallade to block him. Gallade uses Vacuum Wave but Piplup dodges it with his spin technique and forward flips onto Gallade's head into the air. Zoey is shocked and Piplup uses Hydro Pump to knock Glameow off Togekiss's back. Togekiss swings underneath Piplup and soars away with him, and Zoey loses points. Gallade uses Psycho Cut but Togekiss easily dodges. [[Princess Salvia]], [[Freesia]], [[Lila]], [[Candice]] with her class, and {{si|Kenny}} are seen watching the final on TV. Zoey has Gallade use Psycho Cut again to separate Dawn's Pokémon and Togekiss flies straight up to dodge. However the attack follows them and Piplup can see it gaining speed. Before it can hit, Piplup shoves off Togekiss's back with his feet, pushing both of them clear as the attack flies past between them but separating them as Zoey wanted. Dawn gets anxious and has Piplup initiate Whirlpool as he falls while Togekiss charges towards Gallade and Glameow then flies upward in an attempt to distract Zoey. Piplup fires the Whirlpool but Glameow catches it with Iron Tail and while Togekiss flies away with Piplup, Gallade disperses it with Vacuum Wave creating a beautiful sparkling effect. Dawn tells Piplup to use Peck and Togekiss use Sky Attack. Togekiss glows and charges then Piplup hops on Togekiss's head and his beak glows and grows. Piplup's beak shines a white light that turns red and surrounds both Piplup and Togekiss with Piplup's beak the only thing not in the red light; the two looking like a rocket or missile being launched with the beak being the rocket/missile and the red light being the fire. Fantina comments on the combination and Zoey loses points, now being a little bit behind Dawn. Zoey tells Gallade to use Psycho Cut and Glameow to use Thunderbolt. Gallade jumps and initiates Psycho Cut while Glameow lifts its tail up. As Gallade lands on Glameow's tail, Glameow uses Thunderbolt and gives Psycho Cut an electric charge. Gallade jumps up and Dawn becomes excited and cheers Togekiss and Piplup on. Gallade fires the electrified Psycho Cut and still shots of Piplup on Togekiss, Gallade, Glameow, Zoey, then Dawn flash. Togekiss and Piplup collide with the Psycho Cut and a major explosion erupts along with a bright flash. Togekiss and Piplup are stumbling backwards and Gallade is falling backwards. Zoey and Dawn try to stand on their feet as the sheer force of the explosion is pushing them back. Togekiss and Piplup land on their feet while Gallade lands and gets in a battle pose. Dawn and Zoey both lose points, the smoke clears, and time runs out. Dawn and Zoey quickly look to the board and it's revealed that while both only have a few points left Zoey has a couple of more than Dawn, and is declared the winner of the Grand Festival. Dawn looks disappointed and everyone cheers for Zoey. Ash, Brock, Johanna, and {{AP|Pikachu}} are sad that Dawn lost. Gallade and Glameow hug Zoey and Dawn picks up Piplup. She tells Piplup and Togekiss they both did a great job and congratulates Zoey.

[[Jessie]] is furious that Dawn lost and decides to quit Contests and throws away her [[Jessilina]] costume, stomping away as she decides to rededicate herself fully to Team Rocket and capturing Pikachu. Zoey is awarded the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of {{DL|Grand Festival|Top Coordinator}} and the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]] comes to an end. Dawn finishes changing and comes out of the dressing room to find her proud mother waiting in the hallway with her friends. She hugs her being happy that she was there and gives her back the Ribbon she gave her before her journey. Dawn says she doesn't need it anymore as she now has her own. [[Nurse Joy]] then appears and informs Ash that she took a call from [[Volkner]], to pass on that the [[Sunyshore City]] [[Sunyshore Gym|Gym]] is fully repaired and he will be waiting for him. Ash becomes excited knowing he'll soon be battling for his final Badge. Dawn and Zoey are now outside talking and [[Nando]] comes out and congratulates the two on a fine battle before leaving. Zoey says she's going back to [[Snowpoint City]] as Candice is going to be throwing a party in her honor, and tells Dawn that she's welcome to accompany her, however Dawn says she's going to stay with Ash and support him during the [[Sinnoh League]]. Zoey tells Dawn goodbye and leaves. Dawn then sends out {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}, {{TP|Dawn|Cyndaquil}} and {{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}} and thanks them, along with Piplup, for all their hard work getting into the Grand Festival and for the performances that got her to the final before telling {{cat|Dawn's Pokémon|her trusted partners and friends}} that they'll do even better in the next one. Dawn and her Pokémon jump into the air in celebration, knowing that while one journey has just ended another one will soon begin...
