This episode opens up with the nearing end of a final {{pkmn|Contest}} battle between a young [[Johanna]] and a [[Lila|Chinese-dressed female]]. Johanna orders her {{TP|Johanna|Glameow}} to use {{m|Iron Tail}}, But then the opposing trainers {{p|Delcatty}} disappears-the announcer exclaims that it's a decoy-and asks the crowd rhetorically where the real one is.

After this the time runs out and the winner is revealed to be Lila from Celestic Town. Johanna and Lila then shake hands and compliment each other on there preformance during the battle.


It turns out this is a past memory of Johanna's being told to her daughter, {{an|Dawn}}. Dawn is still somewhat thinking that this is unbelievable. Johanna says this past memory is the truth, and that up to that point Johnna was on a winning streak ended by Lila. {{Ash}} asks who Lila is, and Dawn shows a present day picture of Lila revealing her to be a top Pokémon Stylist. Johanna reveals that Lila retired from contests and being a [[Pokémon coordinator]] before Johanna could get a rematch. Dawn sadly remarks that the loss still stands. Johanna is fine with that, calling them fond memories, and that Lily is doing fine as Pokémon stylist. {{an|Brock}} recalls that he read her store is in [[Celestic Town]].  
The episode re-opens after the opening sequence showing a Pokémon center. It turns out this is a past memory of Johanna's that she was telling her {{an|Dawn|daughter}} and her [[Ash|fri]]{{an|Brock|ends}} about over the video phone, she goes on to say she had never lost a match before and Lila was the one to break her winning streak. Ash then asks who Lila is, much to Dawn's suprise. She then shows him a page in a magazine showing the grown up Lila and her Delcatty and explains she is the top [[Pokémon Stylist]] that styles trainers and Pokémon. Johanna then goes on to explain she retired from being a [[Coordinator]] before she had a rematch with her and so the lose still stands, however Johanna is fine with that. Brock then remebers reading that her store is located in Celestic town, Dawn is exttatic about having the chance to visit.


When Ash and co. leave the Celestic Town's Pokémon Center, Ash goes on his own, planning on trying to figure out a way to block [[Fantina]]'s Pokémon's {{m|Hypnosis}}. At Lila's store, Dawn and Brock discover that Lila has [[Wallace]]'s stage costume from the Top Coordinator Carnival. Dawn asks one of the staff of the store if she can meet Lila, but the staff remarks that Lila will be out all day, much to Dawn's dismay. Meanwhile, Ash and his Pokémon fall asleep while trying to figure out a way out of a Hypnosis attack.
The narrator then explains current events: that Ash and co have reached Celestic town; it is the day of Dawn's contest and it is alo the day they get to Lila.
Dawn then turns to Ash to ask if he's coming, though he is set on training for his rematch with [[Fantina]] and finding a way to counter her {{m|Hypnosis}}. The gang agree to meet back at the contest hall and part-ways.  


Later, at the Pokémon Contest, Marian gets the contest underway. While Dawn is getting ready, she catches a glimpse of Lila, but Lila is pulled out by two bodyguards. Meanwhile, Marian introduces the usual judges: [[Mr. Contesta]], [[Mr. Sukizo]], and the town's own [[Nurse Joy]]. Lila sends out a {{p|Cherrim}}, and orders a {{m|Sunny Day}} and a {{m|Magical Leaf}}, creating a flower out of it.  
Dawn, Brock and [[Dawn's Piplup|Piplup]] arrive at Lila's shop and are amazed by the clothing they see there, including the outfit [[Wallace]] wore to the top coordinator carival. Dawn then goes over to the checkout point and asks the lady working there if she'd be able to see Lila. The woman apoligises that Lila is out for the entire day, much to Dawn's annoynce.  


After a few more appeals, [[Jessie]] disguised as Jessilla dressed like Fantina enters. Jessie calls out {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, then jumps up, surprising the judges. Jessilla remarks that she putting on a new spin on her past win, and orders a Sliver Wind, which makes
Ash is sitting in a park with all of his Pokémon, he asks them to all try and think of a way to counter Fantina's Hypnosis, however they all fall asleep. Eventualley Ash wakes up and is suprized to see his Pokémon asleep, he wakes them up without hessitation to train more.
her both slide and rotate like on a slow-moving top. Ash remarks Jessilla likes to fine<!--Likes to fine? what does that mean? If anyone knows, please fix it-->, but Brock is confused if Jessilla's acts are really copycatting Fantina. Meanwhile, [[James]] remarks this is the first time he thinks thieving was wrong. {{MTR}} remarks, "If this is the sincerest form of flattery, I quit!"


Finally, it's Dawn turn to make her appeal. She sends out {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, orders a {{m|Bounce}}, spin on the ears, and then {{m|Ice Beam}} to create a slide. Dawn orders a {{m|Dizzy Punch}}, but that confuses Buneary. Dawn catches Buneary in her hands. On the way back to the dressing room, Dawn admits that she did mess up a little bit. Ash admits that Dawn pulled together for the first time. They discover Lila talking to Johanna. Lila asked Johanna if she was watching, and Johanna admits she was.  
Later, at the Celestic town contest hall [[Marian]] introduces the contest, the Judges and shows of the Celestic ribbon.
In the changeing rooms Dawn and her {{tp|Dawn|Buneary}} are struggling with Dawn's hair (yet again), a formally dressed woman with a breif case passess the door telling somone to hurry up, then followed by a more casualy dressed woman with sunglassess who expressess she dose not want to do any work today. The woman then sees Dawn's less than perfect hair and excitedly fixes it. Dawn turns to thank the woman and reconizes her as Lila who pulls her sunglassess down and somehow reconizes Dawn, the first woman comes in the room and drags Lila of before this is explained.
Marian introduces the appeals round as Dawn watches from the waiting area, the first coordinator is introduced as the "Tiger Lily" of Celestic town who is making her first contest appearance in over 20 years, Lila. Up in the stands Ash and Brock are excited to fine out Lila's making a come back.
Lila calls apon her Pokémon, bursting from a Poké Ball with a flower pettle [[Seal]] is a {{p|Cherrim}} wich opens up to reveal it's Sunny form, Ash then scans it with his Pokédex.
Lila begins her appeal with Cherrim using {{m|Magical Leaf}} and {{m|Sunny Day}} to create the image of a beautiful green flower shape in the stadium.
Brock comments that she really knows how to show of Cherrim's unique qualaties, all three judges like it as well. Dawn is amazed by the combination aswell but remembers that for today she is her opponet.
After a number of preformances, [[Jessie|Jessilina]] enters the stage promising a Fantina inspired preformance while putting on a poor french accent. Her appeal round however was just her {{tp|Jessie|Yanmega}} using {{m|Silver Wind}} to allow her to fly, very simalur to her appeal with {{tp|Jessie|Dustox}} in the Solaceon Contest. Ash and Brock seem almost embaressed to watch it and wonder what connection it has to Fantina at all, [[James]], {{TR|Meowth}} and {{tp|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} seem equaly as embaressed as well as the judges who have all just watched the terrible impression of Fantina.
Dawn calls upon Buneary for her appeal and has it use {{m|Ice Beam}} to create a slide of ice the Buneary can skate on, Dawn then tells her to use {{m|Dizzy Punch}} wich allowed her to skate on her ears, however she spins out of control and flys across the stage, fourtunatley Dawn catches her and with a smile and a pose, they cover up their mistake. The judges gave Dawn good comments.  


Dawn finally meets Lila face to face. Lila explains that her battle with Johanna was the most important battle of Lila's life. After she had saw that energized Johanna was, Lila started question her path. Back then, Lila was unsure which path she should
While waiting for the results Dawn and co find Lila and Johanna, who had been watching on television, talking over the video phone. Lila compliments Dawn's preformance and Dawn asks about the battle between her and Johanna. Lila goes on to say that was the most important battle of her life because it helped her decide she wanted to become a Pokémon Stylist, she and Johanna agreed to go on and do what they really wanted do and Lila went to study Pokémon styleing abroad. Johanna is still suprised that Lila would enter a contest again, so Lila explained it was because of seeing her rivals daughter on television, Lila thought she could stake winnig her 5th ribbon in a battle agaist Dawn allowing her to compete in the Grand Festival. Johanna guessess there is another reason for Lila competing, Lila explains if she battles Dawn, the way she did Johanna, she may lern somthing about herself.  
take: Pokémon coordinator or Pokémon stylist. Then Lila got a chance to study Pokémon styling aboard. Not knowing to she had a talk with Johanna, and both went on their own paths: Johanna to a famous Pokémon Coordinator and Lila to a famous Pokémon stylist. It turns out Dawn the reason that she entered a contest again. Lila decide to stake her final ribbon on a {{pkmn|battle}} with Dawn. Johanna remarks "somethings never change." After this, Marian reveals the judge's coordinator moving on to the next round--which reveals that Lila and Dawn are moving on the battle round. Jessie faints on finding on that she's not moving on. Lila want to make Dawn the opponent for the final battle. Dawn remarks "no need to worry", and tells Ambipom that it's her turn.


Quick victory after quick victory for both Lila and Dawn, we reach the finals of this contest&mdash;Lila and Dawn. Dawn quickly bashes some doubts out of her mind with her catchphrase; 'No need to worry!'. Dawn uses {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} while Lila uses Delcatty. Dawn opens up with {{m|Swift}}, but Lila uses {{m|Substitute}}. Lila orders a Shock Wave. Even Johanna is over-energized while watching this contest. Dawn orders {{m|Double Team}} and {{m|Focus Punch}}, but Ambipom gets effected by {{a|Cute Charm}} and falls in love with Delcatty. Lila orders her Delcatty to use {{m|Sing}} and Iron Tail. Delcatty then uses Shock Wave, which awakens Ambipom. Dawn orders a Swift, but Lila counters it with Substitute. Ambipom is back in Attract status.

Ambipom's Swift makes it away though Delcatty's Shock Wave. Marian reveals that the time is up--and reveals that the winner of the Contest is Dawn. Dawn remarks that she did it. Dawn thanks Ambipom while Lila thanks Delcatty. Mt. Contesta presents Dawn with the Celestic Town Ribbon.  
Marian then announces that the judges are done and the 8 coordinators that got threw are shown on the screen. Lila and Dawn make it threw but Jessilina dose not, probably because off the unessicerry Fantina impression and the appeal identical to her prevous one, much to her disgust.  
The pairing are shown with Dawn and Lila shown at oppisite ends, they agree to meet in the finals and Johanna wishes them both luck.
