In the secondary judging, the four Pokémon take turns appealing (i.e. using certain [[move]]s in front of an appointed judge). They are able to affect the performances of each other. Effects on other Pokémon include [[Jamming|reducing their number of hearts]], making them nervous, and so forth. Moves that are of the same category as the contest the user is competing in may excite the audience, and if the audience becomes extremely excited, the Pokémon scores extra hearts.


[[Contest combination|Move combinations]] score extra hearts. Moves that are of the same category as the contest the user is competing in may excite the audience, and if the audience becomes extremely excited, the Pokémon scores extra hearts.
[[Contest combination|Move combinations]] also score extra hearts. The amount of extra points vary between [[generation]]s; in [[Generation III]], the follow-up move of a combination receives double the amount of Appeal Points it would have earned otherwise, while in [[Generation VI]] the follow-up move earns 3 additional Appeal Points.
 
Using a move repeatedly will bore the audience in the [[Contest Hall|hall]], resulting in point deduction. In Generation III, the Pokémon will lose two hearts the first time a move is repeated, three hearts the second time, and so on. In Generation VI, the Pokémon will only lose one heart every time a move is repeated.
