The '''Visual Competition''' (Japanese: '''ビジュアル審査''' ''Visual Examination'') is the first round of a [[Pokémon Super Contest]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.


During the visual round, the contestants dress up their Pokémon with [[Accessories]] based on the theme in 60 seconds. After the time is up, the Pokémon are presented to the audience to be rated. One advantage is knowing what Accessory fits the theme and what doesn't. Another is the use of [[Poffin]]s to increase the Pokémon's appearance depending on what contest it is in.
==Procedure==
The Visual Competition consists of two portions: the condition portion and the dress-up portion. The score from the Visual Competition is the total number of hearts given from both portions.


Initially, only five Accessories can be placed on the Pokémon in the Normal Rank. As the ranks increase, so does the number of Accessories used. The maximum, in the Master Rank, is 20.
===Condition===
The condition portion is the equivalent of the primary judging of the [[Pokémon Contest]]s of [[Generation III]]. As in the previous [[generation]], {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are rated based on their [[Contest condition|condition]] in the appropriate category. These stats can be raised using [[Poffin]]s, or [[Pokéblock]]s if raised in Generation III then [[Pal Park|transferred]].


== Themes ==
Scoring in the condition portion is also similar to that of Generation III. A Pokémon's score in the condition portion is the sum of the following:
The themes for the visual round are randomly selected every time a new contest has started.


* The Natural
* The condition in the Contest's primary attribute
* The Intangible
* ½ of the condition in each of the Contest's secondary attributes
*The Relaxed
* ½ of the Pokémon's sheen
*The Gaudy
 
*The Colorful
This score is boosted by 10% if the Pokémon is holding the [[scarf]] corresponding to the primary attribute or 5% if the Pokémon is holding the scarf corresponding to either secondary attribute.  Depending on what this score is and the rank of the Contest, a number of red hearts is shown for this portion. The table below shows the minimum score needed to earn a given number of hearts.

* '''Great Rank''' - The Shapely, The Sharp, The Solid
* '''Ultra Rank''' - The Bright, The Gaudy, The Flexible
* '''Master Rank''' - The Festive, The Intangible, The Relaxed
 
A Contest will have its theme chosen from those of its rank and those below it. Link Contests will have a theme selected from all themes.
 
The number of Accessories that can be placed on a Pokémon increases by five with each rank: five for Normal Rank, ten for Great Rank, fifteen for Ultra Rank, and finally, twenty for Master Rank.
 
The scores for each Accessory and the corresponding theme are given on the Accessory page. Depending on the Accessory score and the rank of the Contest, a number of pink hearts is shown:

A Shellos during the Visual Competition

The Visual Competition (Japanese: ビジュアル審査 Visual Examination) is the first round of a Pokémon Super Contest in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

Procedure

The Visual Competition consists of two portions: the condition portion and the dress-up portion. The score from the Visual Competition is the total number of hearts given from both portions.

Condition

The condition portion is the equivalent of the primary judging of the Pokémon Contests of Generation III. As in the previous generation, Pokémon are rated based on their condition in the appropriate category. These stats can be raised using Poffins, or Pokéblocks if raised in Generation III then transferred.

Scoring in the condition portion is also similar to that of Generation III. A Pokémon's score in the condition portion is the sum of the following:

  • The condition in the Contest's primary attribute
  • ½ of the condition in each of the Contest's secondary attributes
  • ½ of the Pokémon's sheen

This score is boosted by 10% if the Pokémon is holding the scarf corresponding to the primary attribute or 5% if the Pokémon is holding the scarf corresponding to either secondary attribute. Depending on what this score is and the rank of the Contest, a number of red hearts is shown for this portion. The table below shows the minimum score needed to earn a given number of hearts.

Rank 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Normal Rank 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80
Great Rank 0 90 110 130 150 170 190 210 230
Ultra Rank 0 170 200 230 260 290 320 350 380
Master Rank 0 320 360 400 440 480 520 560 600
Link Contest 0 100 200 300 400 450 500 550 600


Dress-up

The dress-up portion consists of dressing up the Pokémon with Accessories found in the Fashion Case. By using the stylus to drag and drop Accessories onto the Pokémon, Coordinators must dress up their Pokémon as well as they can within the 60-second time limit. These competitions will have a theme chosen based on the rank of the Contest which the competitors must follow. The theme is randomly picked from the options below:

  • Normal Rank - The Colorful, The Natural, The Created
  • Great Rank - The Shapely, The Sharp, The Solid
  • Ultra Rank - The Bright, The Gaudy, The Flexible
  • Master Rank - The Festive, The Intangible, The Relaxed

A Contest will have its theme chosen from those of its rank and those below it. Link Contests will have a theme selected from all themes.

The number of Accessories that can be placed on a Pokémon increases by five with each rank: five for Normal Rank, ten for Great Rank, fifteen for Ultra Rank, and finally, twenty for Master Rank.

The scores for each Accessory and the corresponding theme are given on the Accessory page. Depending on the Accessory score and the rank of the Contest, a number of pink hearts is shown:

Rank 0 1 2 3
Normal Rank <3 4-5 6-8 >9
Great Rank <5 6-10 11-15 >16
Ultra Rank <7 8-15 16-23 >24
Master Rank / Link Contest <10 11-20 21-30 >31
