The Wallace Cup (Japanese: ミクリカップ Mikuri Cup) is a special Pokémon Contest hosted and judged by former Sootopolis Gym Leader and current Hoenn Champion, the master Coordinator Wallace. The event was introduced in DP075, while the actual contest took place in episodes DP077, DP078, and DP079 so far.

The Wallace Cup is hosted at Lake Valor in Sinnoh, with the prize being a Ribbon that counts towards any region's Grand Festival, not merely that of the region it is won in. For this reason, Coordinators are migrating from all around the nation to compete in it.

It was announced on Sinnoh Now, where Dawn found out about it and became excited. Eventually, she, Ash, and Brock ran into Wallace himself, who was relaxing with his Milotic in a lake; Ash was convinced to enter the Contest with Buizel, which he used in the three rounds he competed in before losing.

May traveled all the way from Johto to compete in this Contest; it is unknown at the present whether or not, if she wins, she intends to use the ribbon towards her Johto region Contests or continue gathering them in Sinnoh. What is known, however, is that she has so far won three ribbons in Johto.

Trivia

  • The Wallace Cup Arc has more episodes dedicated to it than any past non-Pokémon League Competition (6). It is also worth stating that the Wallace Cup itself is longer than either of the previous two Grand Festivals (4).
