The Grand Festival is the final challenge for all Pokémon Coordinators. In order to qualify, five ribbons must be won from Pokémon Contests throughout a specific region. The winner receives the Ribbon Cup.

The tournament follows a similar structure to Pokémon Contests with a few differences. A key difference is that there are more judges - in Hoenn there were two extra Nurse Joys while Vivian joined the judges in Kanto.

The Hoenn Grand Festival is held in Slateport City while the Kanto Grand Festival is held at the Indigo Plateau.

Preliminaries rounds

The first two rounds are Appeal stages. Coordinators must twice produce impressive appeals with their Pokémon in order to progress through the tournament and only the best sixteen coordinators go through to the finals. Each round takes place on a seperate day.

Finals rounds

On the third day of the tournament, the coordinators face each other in knock-out double battles. Matches last for five minutes and the coordinator with the least points loses if both oppenents still have a Pokémon standing.
