In [[Generation III]] games, one can enter his or her Pokémon into a [[Pokémon Contest]], while in [[Generation IV]] games, Pokémon can be entered in Super Contests.

{{conditions}}
A {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s '''condition''' (Japanese: '''コンディション''' ''condition'') is made up of stats that exist for use in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, and {{pkmn|Contest|Contest Spectaculars}}. There are five different condition stats: {{OBP|Cool|condition}}ness, [[Beautiful (condition)|Beauty]], {{OBP|Cute|condition}}ness, {{OBP|Clever|condition}}ness, and {{OBP|Tough|condition}}ness.


There are five different categories of contests, used in Pokémon Contests as well as Super Contests. These '''Contest categories''', also called Contest conditions, are: Coolness, Beauty, Cuteness, Smartness, and Toughness.
For each of these five conditions, there are individual contest categories where Pokémon are judged by how developed they are in the relevant stat. In order to improve a condition stat, Pokémon can be given [[Pokéblock]]s and [[Poffin]]s made from {{Berries}}.
Each Pokémon [[move]] is categorized under one of these five categories. In addition, [[Berry]] flavors, [[Pokéblock]] and [[Poffin]] colors, and Pokémon [[natures]] are associated with certain Contest categories.


Despite that they are not utilized in the game at all besides the fact that a very beautiful {{p|Feebas}} [[Poké Transfer|transferred]] from earlier games will still evolve into {{p|Milotic}}, Contest conditions are still in the code of [[Generation V]] games.
==Characteristics==
A Pokémon with an enhanced condition stat will score higher when competing in a contest with the same title as that condition. A Pokémon's condition will be judged in the following rounds:


{| class="roundy" align="center" style="background: #{{contest color dark}};  border: 3px solid #{{contest color}}"
* In the {{DL|Pokémon Contest|primary judging}} of a [[Pokémon Contest]]
* In the [[Visual Competition]] of a [[Pokémon Super Contest]]
* In the Introduction Round of a [[Pokémon Contest Spectacular]]
 
This can also be assisted with the use of [[Scarf|scarves]]. A Pokémon holding a scarf corresponding to the category of the contest entered will gain bonus points in the final score.
 
* {{DL|Scarf|Red Scarf}} - Boosts the {{OBP|Cool|condition}}ness of the Pokémon holding it
* {{DL|Scarf|Blue Scarf}} - Boosts the [[Beautiful (condition)|Beauty]] of the Pokémon holding it
* {{DL|Scarf|Pink Scarf}} - Boosts the {{OBP|Cute|condition}}ness of the Pokémon holding it
* {{DL|Scarf|Green Scarf}} - Boosts the {{OBP|Clever|condition}}ness of the Pokémon holding it
* {{DL|Scarf|Yellow Scarf}} - Boosts the {{OBP|Tough|condition}}ness of the Pokémon holding it
 
===Moves===
Every [[move]] that a Pokémon can learn is associated with one of the five conditions, and the audience reaction to a move's condition influences the excitement in the [[Contest Hall|hall]], as shown below.

The audience reaction affects the amount of points an [[appeal]] earns. If a move excites the audience, the Pokémon will gain one extra point, but if a move bores the audience, the Pokémon will lose one of its points. The audience indifference to a move will not affect the excitement in the hall nor the Pokémon's score.

Condition redirects here. For the afflictions that affect Pokémon in battle, see status condition.
Conditions

Tough

A Pokémon's condition (Japanese: コンディション condition) is made up of stats that exist for use in Pokémon Contests, Super Contests, and Contest Spectaculars. There are five different condition stats: Coolness, Beauty, Cuteness, Cleverness, and Toughness.

For each of these five conditions, there are individual contest categories where Pokémon are judged by how developed they are in the relevant stat. In order to improve a condition stat, Pokémon can be given Pokéblocks and Poffins made from Berries.

Characteristics

A Pokémon with an enhanced condition stat will score higher when competing in a contest with the same title as that condition. A Pokémon's condition will be judged in the following rounds:

This can also be assisted with the use of scarves. A Pokémon holding a scarf corresponding to the category of the contest entered will gain bonus points in the final score.

Moves

Every move that a Pokémon can learn is associated with one of the five conditions, and the audience reaction to a move's condition influences the excitement in the hall, as shown below.

Category Reaction
Excitement Indifference Discontent
Coolness Cool icon.png Beautiful icon.png and Tough icon.png Clever icon.png and Cute icon.png
Beauty Beautiful icon.png Cool icon.png and Cute icon.png Clever icon.png and Tough icon.png
Cuteness Cute icon.png Beautiful icon.png and Clever icon.png Cool icon.png and Tough icon.png
Cleverness Clever icon.png Cute icon.png and Tough icon.png Beautiful icon.png and Cool icon.png
Toughness Tough icon.png Clever icon.png and Cool icon.png Beautiful icon.png and Cute icon.png


The audience reaction affects the amount of points an appeal earns. If a move excites the audience, the Pokémon will gain one extra point, but if a move bores the audience, the Pokémon will lose one of its points. The audience indifference to a move will not affect the excitement in the hall nor the Pokémon's score.

Berries

Each Berry flavor and color represent a specific condition stat, as shown below.

Condition Flavor Color
Coolness Spicy Red
Beauty Dry Blue
Cuteness Sweet Pink
Cleverness Bitter Green
Toughness Sour Yellow


Natures

In a similar fashion to its effect on battle stats, a Pokémon's Nature has an effect on the ability to raise a specific condition stat, as shown below.

Condition-dependent evolution

See also: Feebas and Milotic

If Feebas's Beauty condition is 170 points or more, it will evolve into Milotic when it is leveled up. Prior to the introduction of the Prism Scale in Generation V, this was the only way to evolve Feebas; however, even in games that include the Prism Scale, Feebas can evolve by level up if its Beauty condition is high enough.

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, a Pokémon's condition is viewable from the PokéNav. In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, as well as in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, condition stats are shown in the Pokémon's Summary screen.
