Visual round
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
The visual round is the first part of the Super Contest in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
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 Poffins to increase the Pokémon's appearance depending on what contest it is in.
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.
Themes
The themes for the visual round are randomly selected every time a new contest has started.
- The Natural
- The Intangible
- The Relaxed
- The Gaudy
- The Colorful
- The Solid
- The Flexible
- The Sharp
- The Created
