{{an|May}} rushes towards the [[Contest Hall]] with {{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Brock}} following behind. Luckily she makes it just before the cut off time. Realizing they have three hours to spare until the [[Slateport City]] [[Pokémon Contest]] begins, Brock asks what they should do. Ash admits he is hungry again from all the running, so the group leaves to find a restaurant. Afterwards, {{TRT}} strut into the Contest Hall and perform their {{motto}} for the receptionist. The lady informs them that they have just missed the registration deadline, much to [[Jessie]]'s disappointment. The trio sit on park bench wondering what to do next. They watch as a male {{pkmn|Trainer}} is busy {{pkmn|training}} with his {{p|Poochyena}}, rewarding it with some [[Pokéblock]]s. [[James]] suggests they sell Pokéblocks, with Jessie and {{MTR}} cheering to the money making scheme. Meanwhile, the Slateport Contest is about to get underway as [[Vivian Meridian|Vivian]] steps onto stage. She presents the Slateport [[Ribbon]] and introduces the [[Contest Judge|panel of judges]], formed by the Chief of the [[Pokémon Activities Committee]], [[Raoul Contesta]]; the {{pkmn|Fan Club Chairman|President}} of the [[Pokémon Fan Club]], [[Mr. Sukizo]]; and the {{pkmn|Center Nurse|operator}} of the [[Pokémon Center]], [[Nurse Joy]]. Backstage, May is anxious and her nerves are beginning to get to her. Ash, Max, and Brock comfort her as [[Drew]] smiles from around the corner.

The [[Appeal|Appeals Round]] begins and, one after another, [[Pokémon Coordinator]]s take the stage to showcase their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in such a way that their appearances and skills are highlighted. Soon it is Drew's turn and he tells his {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} to use {{m|Petal Dance}}, landing on the stage with a graceful curtsy. Roselia follows up with a twirling {{m|Stun Spore}} and {{m|Magical Leaf}} combination. For its grand finale, Roselia disappears into a blizzard of petals before slicing them with a Magical Leaf attack for a dazzling display. As Vivian comments on how beautiful it is, Drew earns the highest score yet, with a 29.4. Drew walks backstage and begins to talk to May. They are interrupted by {{ho|Robert}} as he and his {{p|Milotic}} begin to perform. Max comments that many say that Milotic is the most beautiful Pokémon and Brock agrees. Milotic uses {{m|Safeguard}}, causing it to radiate with a green glow. Ash rushes out to check his [[Pokédex]] on Milotic, and Max adds that it is considered the most beautiful Pokémon. Milotic fans out its tail to show off its magnificent scales to the roaring crowd. The last entrant, May is now up. She walks out onto the stage nervously. Vivian announces that this is her first Contest. May gets ready to send out {{TP|May|Beautifly}} but falls. Vivian asks if she is alright and May replies yes, getting to her feet and releasing Beautifly. May throws a frisbee and Beautifly uses {{m|String Shot}} to whip it back. May orders Beautifly to use {{m|Gust}} to send the frisbee back, though May almost fails to catch it. May tells Beautifly use {{m|Silver Wind}} while spinning, which creates a Silver Wind tornado effect. May ends her performance with a bow and Beautifly landing on her head. Drew is mildly impressed and May earns a 24.9 much to her disappointment. May walks backstage and Drew hands her a rose, causing her to blush, until he explains that it is for Beautifly and not her, before saying that she still has a lot of training to do. Outside Team Rocket are dressed up and ready to sell, but have no Pokéblocks. They are thinking about stealing some from the contestants, but change plans when an old man approaches and offers to teach them the secrets about Pokéblocks. They immediately agree, excited about learning the secrets. The old man's lecture causes James to fall asleep as he tries to take down notes.
